Who won PMGO 2026 Season 2?
Wolves Esports did. According to the official PUBG MOBILE press release, they took an 8-elimination Chicken Dinner on Miramar in Match 12, which ended the event on the spot under the Smash Rule.
The twist is that Wolves did not top the points table. Sports Digest notes that AK Gold Esports finished on 94 points to Wolves' 86. Under the Smash Rule, though, the title goes to the first team that passes the match point threshold and then wins a game.
How does the Smash Rule work?
Day 1 was a normal points race. On Day 2, the threshold was set 10 points above the overnight leader. Horaa Esports led on 57, so the line was 67. Once a team crosses it, its next Chicken Dinner wins the event. Ten teams were in that zone over the final matches, and Wolves were the first to close it out.
