PHILIPPINES
Philippines NF took place together with the CFS INVITATIONAL MANILA one day before the international tournament.
Given the world record of team Pacific Macta in the previous years and CFEL 2016, it seemed that there was no team that could overrule the defending champion and take its place. However, this time it was its sister team Pacific Wara who took the title for the Grand Finals. It was a pretty close match against TNC Pro Team in a BO5 game, reaching up until the fifth map.
