PUBG Mobile – YG Hold Narrow Lead
Day 2 of the PUBG Mobile Grand Finals intensified the title race, with Myanmar’s Yangon Galacticos (YG) holding onto first place with 117 points after two days.
Defending champs Alpha7 Esports trail closely at 112 points, setting the stage for a tense final day on Sunday.
Despite mixed results across six matches, YG’s consistency – including two Chicken Dinners – gave them the edge.
