S2G Esports' performance after PMGC 2022 in regional events

In the Spring Season, the current world champion stumbled in their regional competitions. The lineup took the 13th spot in the PMPL Turkey Spring 2023 after displaying a modest performance. They had even failed to register a place in the European Championship Spring.

On the basis of fan votes, S2G Gaming contested in the PUBG Mobile World Invitational 2023 Allstars Stage, but they didn’t manage to up their performance throughout the grand event, held in Riyadh.

However, the organization bounced back in the fall season and claimed the runner-up spot in the recently concluded Pro League Turkey. They are now gearing up for the upcoming European Championship Fall, which is scheduled for October 19 to 22 this month. The squad, led by Hamsig, will play without any pressure as they received a special invitation to participate in the PMGC Grand Finals.
