4. Looking back at Total Gaming’s Journey in FFIC
Total Gaming is going to represent India to be in the Grand Finals of the Free Fire Continental Series 2020 as the champion of the Free Fire India Championship. Now, we will take a look back at how they came all the way here to this place to become the one team who will bring glory to India.
- In the first week, Total Gaming started off with 2 Booyah, but they were pretty quiet for the most part, making people wondered if they could actually make it.
- In the second week, Total Gaming seemed to have a new plan as they consistently placed third in 5 games and qualified themselves in the finals. The teams also got an impressive number of 65 kills.
- In the third week, Total Gaming showed a really unstable performance as they topped the chart on the first day and continued with a mediocre performance throughout the week. They still got into the Grand Finals. It was hard to tell if they could actually win.
- In the last week, Total Gaming was a totally different beast, rampaging through every other team. They went everywhere looking for kills and got a total of 45 kills in 6 games. Every other team just had no chance to fight against them.
It wasn't a straight road for Total Gaming to be the champion of India but they did it in the end nonetheless. Let's hope that Total Gaming will be able to keep up with their performance on the international stage in the Free Fire Continental Series 2020.
