At Comic Con Africa, on the main stage for the Telkom VS Gaming Masters 2025 event, we saw some fantastic esports, including the best Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) teams in the country competing for their share of a huge R300,000 prize pool. Here's how things went down.

With eight teams competing for their share of the enormous prize pool, Bravado Gaming didn't waste any time asserting their dominance, beating Realms Esports with an immaculate 2-0 score (13-1 on Ancient, 13-2 on Mirage).

In the Semifinals, Bravado smashed Nixuh with a strong 2-0 (13-8 on Nuke, 13-3 on Inferno) to make it to the Grand Final. In the Telkom VS Gaming Masters 2025 Grand Final, Bravado Gaming met Kitsune Esports and dominated once again. With a 3-0 score (13-8 on Mirage, 13-7 on Ancient, and 13-4 on Inferno), no team managed to get double digits on a map against them.
