The PMRC Rondo Cup 2025, the latest thrilling PUBG Mobile esports tournament, concluded this past weekend with team Yangon Galacticos emerging as the champions. Their victory not only earned them the prestigious title but also the lion's share of the $20,000 prize pool generously provided by PUBG.
The tournament unfolded on PUBG's newest and largest map to date, Rondo. This expansive battleground hosted 16 teams, each having earned their spot through rigorous qualifiers such as D'Xavier at PMSL SEA Spring, Rangers at PMCL Spring, and R3GICIDE at PMSL CSA Fall.
Yangon Galacticos clinched the win under the innovative SMASH format rules introduced at the PMRC Rondo Cup. According to these rules, a team needed to accumulate 30+ points and secure a victory in a different match to claim the title. However, after six intense matches, no team managed to meet these criteria, leading to Yangon Galacticos' triumph due to their overwhelming points lead.
HORAA Esports and Bigetron Esports secured the second and third positions, respectively, underscoring the Rondo Cup's success and highlighting PUBG Mobile's ambitious esports trajectory that has been on an upward trend since 2024.
Interestingly, the inaugural tournament to feature the SMASH rule did not see a winner emerge through this method, sparking curiosity about its future in PUBG Mobile tournaments. Whether the SMASH format will return depends on the organizers' assessment of its potential to foster more skilled and entertaining gameplay in future events.
