The tournament caught the eye of a lot of top PH teams like Dreamz Ledion Steel Series and Pacific eMaxx with its whopping 30,000 Php prize pool. Since the teams had to participate in the GEST Allstars last saturday,Geared Force decided to re-schedule the matches of the Class S participants to the second day so they would not have to bother with juggling two events at the same time.
Class B Finals: Hotdog ni Aljur vs Inexor
Both teams first met in the semi-finals of the winners bracket, where Inexor defeated Hotdog ni Aljur to go onto the finals with a two game advantage. HNA dropped into the losers bracket finals where they met Portside, another team you wouldn't underestimate, but still HNA managed to defeat them to get a spot in the finals. HNA and iNx met once again but this time HNA went with a different approach, playing with their 6th man to participate in the all out battle royale.

Aside from the awesome gaming experience and big, big prizes, Geared Force had something special for the participating teams and others. The organisers gave away free FlipTop Battle to all registered teams from the famous local rappers like Shehyee, Smugglaz, Juan Lazy, Harlem, Mel Christ, Papew, Target, Silencer, Aklas, Damsa and Zaito!
Even though things did not quite go as planned, overall it was a very successful event from Geared Force. Teams and players brought home with them the incredible experience provided by the organizers, and their fellow participants as well. It was an event sure to be remembered by all, especially for the Dagupeños.
