Valorant has announced an event coming on 27th March 2022. This announcement has added a cherry on cake of Valorant APAC because of the tough competition going on, this performance will add special texture to the tournament.
What Were The Results Of APAC Day 5?
Day 5 was full of tragedy for the fans. It showed the results which were least expected by all and broke a lot of hearts around the globe.
The first match was played between BONKERS (OCE) and PERSIJA ESPORTS (ID). All three games were won in overtime. The two teams were hard to separate and the pressure just made it harder for players.
The first match was won by BONK in an overtime 17-15. The rounds went front and back between both teams but BONK started the series with a win. The second game was won by PSJ 15-13. The third game was a decider, and the competitiveness of the match showed it would not be easy for either team. The third and final map was won by PSJ 15-13, winning the long series 2-1. This was the most interesting match so far…
The second game had a very unfortunate result. It was scheduled to be played between BLEED ESPORTS (MY&SG) and XERIA (TH). This was the second scheduled match of the day. The match was forfeit due to technical issues from the XIA side and BLD was announced as the winners of the series. XERIA fans showed their anger on Twitter and smashed Riot Games for their bad management.
That's disappointing and unfair to this match. When uncontrollable events happen, forfeiting is the right thing to do?
If you are organizing a race to find a team with the potential to compete in the MASTERS stage. Should the rules be equal in all sectors? #VCTAPAC #XERXIA #VCT pic.twitter.com/X8gIFDrTIA

The third game was a heartbreak for the Indian fans and other Velocity Gaming fans. It was scheduled between Velocity Gaming and FULL SENSE. VLT looked strong in the first game which was won by FS 14-12 on overtime. VLT fans believed that VLT will bounce back on the second map but destiny was on the other side. FS smashed VLT 13-3 to win the second map and clinch the series 2-0. VLT fans were in shock after the results because they expected VLT to be better than this.
How Does The Table Stand After Day 5?
- Group A: Boom Esports lead the table by +18 points, followed by Cerberus Esports(+3). The bottom 2 consists of Made in Thailand(0) and No Namers(-21).
- Group B: Paper Rex lead the table by +21 points, followed by Persija Esports(+8). The bottom 2 consists of Bonkers(-4) and Fancy United Esports(-25).

The Decider is yet to be played for Group A, C, and D. With 5 teams already qualified for Knockouts but teams will be waiting to win the final match and win the slot in the Knockout stage. Group B is done with their matches and has found their top two in the form of Paper Rex and Persija Esports but with the other results be justifying enough to the fans? We have to wait and watch but enjoy!
