The ALGS Championship’s underdog winner, Oblivion, just made esports history

When I first sat down with Bowen “Monsoon” Fuller, we were both out of breath. Moments earlier, he and his teammates on team Oblivion had just pulled off the unthinkable: winning the Apex Legends Global Series (ALGS) Year 5 Championship in Sapporo, Japan. On the fourth and final day of the competition, Fuller and his team had miraculously beat out Philip “ImperialHal” Dosen‘s Team Falcons, who were highly favored to win and had maintained their number-one spot throughout the first three days of the event, but lost to Oblivion in a shocking ninth and final match on the last day.
