Saigon Phantom quickly dominated, winning the first three games. Hehehehehehe, DayLight, and Joww were named Most Valuable Players (MVP) for games one, two, and three, respectively. With a 3-0 lead, SGP needed just one more game to secure the championship, while Noob Team faced elimination if they lost again.

Noob Team prevented a swift conclusion, winning game four to narrow the score to 1-3. VisethNB earned the MVP title for that game. This marked Noob Team's first victory in a VMC final and SGP's first loss of the tournament.

However, that effort was not enough for the underdog team to turn the tide. SGP secured the championship in game five, sealing a 4-1 victory. DayLight was awarded the final MVP title, contributing to his team's continued dominance after winning the VMC Spring 2026 championship. This also marked the player's fifth consecutive VMC championship.

After the match, DayLight commented that playing in front of a live audience provided both motivation and pressure.

"The cheers from the audience motivate me, but they also create pressure if I make a mistake. I am proud that the team's efforts paid off, but five championships are not enough. I want to continue defending the title in upcoming seasons," DayLight stated.

Saigon Phantom's coach, Bear, received his first Esports trophy in MLBB. Beyond the match results, he was impressed by the audience's enthusiasm at the event.

"I am thrilled to see so many people enthusiastic about MLBB. I hope next time, MLBB in Vietnam can become even larger and more prominent," Bear said.

Noob Team secured the runner-up position in their debut Visa VMC season. While they could not pull off an upset in the championship match, their ability to inflict the first game loss on their experienced opponent demonstrated the efforts of this young team.

In addition to the final match, the event offered free admission to spectators, featuring experience booths, interactive activities, and 2v2 and 5v5 showmatches. The program also included appearances by guests SangTraan and Remind, along with approximately 600 gifts for attendees.

With the championship title, Saigon Phantom received a prize of 250 million VND and a slot in the MLBB Championship Tour SEA (MCT SEA), a regional tournament leading to the M8 World Championship.
