Ukrainian esports organization NAVI finished among the top three teams in the first PEC 2026 Fall final in PUBG, collecting 119 points across three days of competition. As Cybersport In reports, citing Cyberworld, the result earned the team $4,000 in prize money as well as valuable EMEA Points toward qualification for PGC 2026.
NAVI had to overcome a difficult qualification stage before reaching the final. The team sat in 11th place after the opening day and dropped to 14th after Day 2. A strong performance on the final day of qualification, however, allowed the Ukrainian roster to secure one of the three available spots in the final.
Once there, NAVI made an impressive start. The team won one map and added another top-three finish, ending the opening day at the top of the standings.
The second day proved more difficult. NAVI collected fewer points across the next five maps and dropped to sixth place, leaving the team with work to do in the final matches.
NAVI Recover on Final Day
NAVI returned to form on the final day of the first PEC 2026 Fall final. The Ukrainian team opened the day with a victory and later added another top-three finish.
NAVI also won the final map of the competition. The late push was not enough to close the gap to the tournament leaders, but it allowed the team to finish the first final among the top three overall with 119 points.
The result brought NAVI $4,000 in prize money and, more importantly, additional EMEA Points in the PGC 2026 qualification race. These ranking points will play a role in determining which teams advance to the PUBG Global Championship later this year.
The performance is another international result for NAVI, one of Ukraine’s best-known esports organizations. The club, owned by Ukrainian businessman Maksym Krippa, competes across several major esports disciplines, with PUBG remaining part of its broader competitive ecosystem.
