LGD Gaming Triumphs Over Team Secret in Thrilling Honor of Kings Invitational Season 2 Final

In a dramatic turnaround, Malaysia’s LGD Gaming clinched victory over compatriots Team Secret, winning 3-2 in the Honor of Kings Invitational Season 2 held in Kuala Lumpur on Sunday.

Despite an initial 0-2 deficit, LGD Gaming displayed remarkable resilience, winning the next three games to secure the championship. These were their only losses in the tournament, having previously dominated the Malaysia qualifier by defeating the same team.

“When we won the third game, we already knew the result. Maybe in the first two games they were not in the mood yet,” said LGD Gaming head coach Joker in the post-game interview. “But after that game, everyone came back. They were so excited and they already knew we could get the championship.”

Jungler, Chan Tat “MusangKing” Yann was named Finals MVP for his crucial performance in Game 4, where he achieved a flawless 4/0/5 KDA with Yuhuan, propelling the team to a decisive Game 5.

With this win, LGD Gaming will take home $100,000 and prepare for their next challenge at the Esports World Cup in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where they will compete alongside the other top seven teams from the Invitationals.

“We want to win the championship at the Esports World Cup as well. At least we bring the momentum, but we don’t know the schedule yet,” added coach Joker.

This victory not only cements LGD Gaming’s status as a top-tier team in the Honor of Kings esports scene but also sets high expectations for their performance on the global stage. Fans and analysts alike will be eagerly watching to see if they can carry this momentum forward and achieve further success in Riyadh.
