The team, currently playing in the PUBG Mobile Pro League in Thailand, were crowned as the champions of week 1. PMPL will be a 5 week long PUBG Mobile League, which is played on LAN and will determine which teams eventually represent Thailand at the World League. Each week consists of three days of play, ie Friday, Saturday and Sunday, making it very similar to a traditional sport model.
