The IWC 2023 tournament has come to an end on Saturday (14/1) with Bigetron Era bringing home champions title after defeating Nigma Galaxy by 3-1 in the finals. Vivian and her team mates not only did manage to win cash prize, they also became the first Indonesian team to represent Indonesia in the 2023 MWI tournaments.
There are several qualifying routes to be able to represent Indonesia in that tournament and one of them is the IWC 2023 tournament, which Bigetron Era aced. The other one will be in the hands of whichever team made it to the 6th Season of the WSL tournaments as a champion.
Because it’ll be a shame to miss out the memorable moments along the IWC 2023 tournaments, we have compiled some of it for you!
1. Bigetron Era Dominated Over Dewa United Eve
Bigetron Era’s performance throughout this tournament is super satisfying indeed. On the match against Dewa United Eve, The Red Robots really showed their dominance against their rival by excelled in all aspects. Making the match lasted in approximately 11 minutes only. They also outplayed Dewa United Eve in Kill Point stats by 10-0, meaning they cannot kill Bigetron Era’s player at all, not even once!
2. Tight Rivalries between Bigetron Era and GPX Basreng
Dominance at play along the tournaments doesn’t mean smooth and easy path for Bigetron Era as they also face revenges from their rivals, one of the strongest came from GPX Basreng.
The rivalry is so strong that Bigetron Era have to face their defeat in the Group B Qualifiers when losing against GPX Basreng; very contrary to their smooth victory against Dewa United Eve.
The game between them goes so tight that it lasts for more than 20 minutes. Match finally ended at 22mins 37secs when CarameL destroyed Bigetron Era’s base. Such a defeat that left a huge scarring mark for Bigetron Era’s stats albeit their champions title.
3. GPX Chincaaw’s First Savage
Another memorable moment from GPX Basreng is obviously Chincaaw’s Savage, which became the first Savage ever happened throughout the IWC 2023 tournaments.
How did that happened? GPX Basreng didn’t want the match to end fast, even with one player left from RRQ Mika. Instead they hunted down Ash to knock them out, which also resulted in Chincaaw getting her Savage.
4. Grock’s Ulti Hit Four Heroes At Once!
Up next is from the Echo Aeris vs AURA Phoenix match. When the match entered the late game phase, Echo Aeris still struggled to break through the defense of AURA Phoenix’s base, even though they’ve summoned the Lord.
Then it all changed when Danvers, who used Grock, managed to attack four AURA Phoenix’s players at once while using Grock’s ulti. Such move made their heroes thrown away to the air, and Echo Aeris took advantage of it right away. Then they managed to knock three of AURA Phoenix’s players off before winning the match.
5. Bigetron Era’s Victory Moment in the Finals
The rivalries between Bigetron Era and GPX Basreng is back as the two reunited at the finals, and their match this time was even tighter than the previous one.
Round 1, which Bigetron Era aced, lasted for more than 30 minutes. While Round 2 that GPX Basreng conquered ended in 25 minutes. The Red Robots managed to win the next two round and ended up being the IWC 2023 champion for winning against GPX Basreng by 3-1.
