The PUBG Continental Series is over for 2021, with PCS5 Americas seeing Oath continue their late-season run to win the overall title. However, there was more on the line than prize money, with six teams qualifying for the PUBG Global Championship.

The PGI.S champions Soniqs have been felled. Sure, they already lost to Oath in ESL Masters, but the rising star squad has made it two-from-two with a PCS5 title under their belt.

It secures their place at PGC in South Korea in November, alongside five other squads.

The Soniqs, TSM, Dignitas, FIUMBA, and Spacestation Gaming will be on the flight, with squads like Dodge and Guadalajara Gascans barely missing out.
