iQOO 8Bit Lead BMSD 2026 on 116 Points After Day 2, With the Smash Point Set at 126
iQOO 8Bit finished Day 2 of the BMSD 2026 Grand Finals on 116 points after 12 matches. That fixes the Smash Point for the final day at 126, the leader's total plus ten. Day 2's six matches were won by six different teams.
How the Smash Rule decides Day 3
Day 3 starts under normal scoring, but a team that reaches 126 points becomes eligible to win the title by taking a Chicken Dinner in a subsequent match. Winning the match in which a team first reaches 126 does not clinch the title. iQOO 8Bit need ten more points to become eligible. They lead with three WWCDs and a Grand Finals-high 73 finishes, ahead of K9 Esports (100), Blitz Epigrotive Gaming (99) and iQOO SouL (88). Five teams sit within 31 points of the leader.
The final day is scheduled for up to six matches across Rondo, Erangel and Miramar on October 18, streamed on the KRAFTON India Esports YouTube channel. If no eligible team wins by Match 18, the highest points total decides the champion.
Six matches, six winners
The winners were iQOO 8Bit, Blitz Epigrotive Gaming, iQOO SouL, Outrage Esports, Gladiators Esports and iQOO Revenant XSpark.
