After proving their consistency through four demanding weeks of competition, eight Clash of Clans sides had to be on top of their game one last time in Stage 5 to punch their golden ticket. The double-elimination bracket meant they had to compete until only four teams remained or participants got knocked out after two losses. In the end, STRUT, Early Attax, Clash Champs, and VN eSporting were the last names standing, assuring themselves of participation at the season finale.
This phase had casters like Maxi, JudoSloth, Woody, iTzu, and CarbonFin, making it an enjoyable experience for fans. Casting was also done in 12 other languages, and all this helped this competition register 116K Hours Watched, 20K Peak Viewers, and 13K Average Viewers over nine hours of airtime, record numbers among the five qualification stages held this year.
