The most recent M5 World Championship, held in Malaysia and the Philippines, witnessed a thrilling finals match where AP.Bren dethroned ONIC Esports in a nail-biting 4-3 series. This M5 World Championship also garnered a peak viewership exceeding 5 million, according to Esports Charts, solidifying its place as a major esports event.
