- Sib: Daunte Gray
Pre Season Runner Up
Under the “Still Orgless” banner, the core stood out in the $75K Monster Energy Launch Invitational (Nov 22-23, 2025), the first BO7 tourney. They clean sweeped in the upper bracket wins with 3-1 over Miami Heretics, 3-0 vs LA Thieves, but fell 0-3 to OpTic Texas.
Moving over to the lower finals, they edged G2 Minnesota 3-2 before a Bo7 Grand Final loss 3-4 to OpTic, securing $16K and 2nd place
Bouncing Back from 2025
As Los Angeles Guerrillas M8 after acquiring the Guerrillas slot in Dec 2024, PGM endured a dismal BO6 campaign, finishing 11th overall with a 5-26 league record. Their only bright spot of the season was a top 8 at Major 4, but consistent struggles in Hardpoint and SND throughout the year.
The rebrand and fresh signings signal a total reset, getting rid of the underperformers for proven winners like Envoy’s championship experience and Sib’s. With owners investing heavily, PGM aims to get into playoff contention, leveraging BO7’s movement tweaks for a solid upcoming season.
Hosting Paris Major 4
PGM hits the jackpot by co hosting CDL Major 4 on June 25-28th, at a Paris venue, bringing in all 12 franchises for a $365K+ prize pool showdown. This Stage 4 will have three online stages, features double elimination brackets, HP/SND/Control.
Home advantage will brings of a storybook run, echoing OpTic’s Texas triumphs. We are expecting a complete sell out arena, with the big following from the owners bringing the energy, and the global streams on Twitch/YouTube reinforcing Paris as CDL’s European hub.
