This is where tournaments get real.
The quarter finals of the ONE Game Championship Summer Series brought all 32 surviving teams into two groups — 16 per group, across 22nd and 23rd April. The format was brutal and simple: finish in the top 4 of your group and you skip the semi-finals entirely. You go straight to the Grand Finale on 29th April, where ₹8 lakh is on the line. Everyone else — the next 12 from each group — drops into the semi-finals for one last shot.
Eight teams punched their direct ticket to the finale. Eight stories of what it looks like when a team comes prepared and doesn’t blink.
Here’s exactly what happened.
Group A Quarter Finals — GODLIKE Showed Everyone What Dominant Looks Like
There are performances that are good, and then there are performances that make the rest of the lobby look like they’re playing a different game. Hero Xtreme Godlike in the Group A quarter finals was the second kind.
47 finishes across 6 matches. No mercy. No close calls. They didn’t just win Group A — they announced themselves as the team to beat heading into the finale. If there’s a favourite coming out of these quarter finals, it’s Godlike. The numbers don’t leave much room for debate.
True Rippers made it look comfortable too, finishing second in Group A and booking their direct spot in the finale without much drama. Two teams in the same group, both cruising. The rest of Group A was fighting over scraps.
Then it got interesting.
The third and fourth spots — the last two direct finale berths from Group A — came down to margins so thin they hurt to look at. Gods Reign and Troy Tamilan Esports made it through, but here’s how close it actually was: the teams right behind them missed out by a single point. One point. Six matches, hundreds of individual decisions across dozens of lobbies, and it came down to one point separating teams who are going to the finale from teams who now have to go through the semi-finals to get there.
That’s BGMI tournament play. That’s why every game matters.

Group B Quarter Finals — A Tie, a Tiebreaker, and One Point That Changed Everything
Group B had its own chaos, and it centered around a tie that forced the rules to decide what the gameplay couldn’t.
iQOO Revenant Xspark came out on top — but it wasn’t clean. The top two positions in Group B ended level on points, and when that happens, the tiebreaker kicks in: placement points. iQOO Revenant Xspark had the edge there, and that’s what separated them from the team they were tied with. One metric, one number, deciding who gets the direct finale spot and who has to go back into the semi-finals grind.
The third and fourth positions had a near-identical situation — same points, tiebreaker applied, Team Omega and one other team edged through. And again, the team right behind them — iQOO Reckoning Esports, who had been solid throughout the tournament — missed the direct finale spot by a single point. They’re in the semi-finals now, still alive, still dangerous, but knowing exactly what one point cost them.

The 24 Teams Heading Into Semi-Finals
The remaining 24 teams aren’t out. But they know what they have to do now. Semi-finals. Win enough, finish high enough, and 8 of them will still make the Grand Finale. The other 16 go home.
Here’s who’s still fighting:
Group A Semi-Finalists:
iQOO Soul · Wyld Fangs · Madkings Esports · Team Moksh · Higgboson Esports · iQOO 8BIT · Welt Esports· Myth Esports
Group B Semi-Finalists:
iQOO Orangutan · Team Scout · Phoenix Esports · Nebula Esports · Zutsu Esports · Rising Esports · Team Resilience · Virgo Esports.
Group C Semi-Finalists:
Victores Sumus · iQOO Team Tamilas · Vasista Esports · Meta Ninza · iQOO Reckoning Esports · LSDxGOC · 4TR Official · Do or Die
Look at that list. iQOO Team Tamilas — Season 2 champions, direct invites — are in the semi-finals. Phoenix Esports, who topped Group B in the pre-quarters, are in the semi-finals. Victores Sumus, with their dual-carry setup of Mafia and Venom, are in the semi-finals. This isn’t the leftovers. These are legitimate teams who had bad days or tight margins in the quarters, and they still have a path to the finale.
The semi-finals aren’t a consolation round. They’re another elimination round, and the teams going in know it.
What’s at Stake From Here
Let’s zoom out for a second.
Eight teams are already in the Grand Finale. Twenty-four teams are playing semi-finals for 8 more spots. The finale will have 16 teams total, playing for a prize pool of ₹8 lakh — the biggest BGMI prize ONE Game has put up.
The narrative threads going into the finale are already forming. Godlike came out of the quarters looking untouchable — 47 finishes across 6 games is not something you replicate easily. iQOO Revenant Xspark survived a tiebreaker but showed throughout the tournament they have the depth to go deep. Gods Reign, who topped Group A in the pre-quarters by 18 points, are through. Troy Tamilan Esports have been steady and dangerous all week.
And whoever comes through the semi-finals is going to be hungry. Teams like iQOO Team Tamilas and Phoenix Esports have something to prove. The teams that nearly made the direct cut — missing by one point — will carry that with them into every semi-final lobby.
The Grand Finale is 29th April. Everything from here points toward that day.
