Here are the MVP Rankings for Day 1 of BGMS Season 2
Day 1 was not up to the mark for teams like Gladiator Esports, Global Esports and Spy Esports in all the three matches that they played. Entity Gaming played two matches and were not able to impress the fans as well.
Teams like Numen Epsorts, Medal Esports and Team Insane played only one match on Day 1 and are placed at the bottom of the table so Day 2 will be quite interesting as these teams will get a chance to showcase their skills and climb the ladder. Blind Esports and Gladiator Esports who recently dominated the third party events will have to prove their prowess.
