For six years, the Call of Duty: Mobile (CODM) community in Indonesia has been waiting to feel the full atmosphere of an offline Grand Finals. For long-time fans, CODM Major Series 2026 is more than a season finale, it marks a long-delayed return of competitive CODM to a live audience after the offline plans for 2020 were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Beyond the event itself, the timing carried extra significance. The Grand Finals coincided with an in-game collaboration: CODM x Persona 5: The Royal. This matters for how the event was experienced, CODM’s competitive moment was paired with a broader entertainment push, reinforcing that Major Series 2026 was designed to draw both esports followers and wider game communities.
EVOS’ Debut Season Builds Momentum
While the offline return was the headline, one of the most compelling storylines was EVOS entering the season with a fresh roster. The team’s foundation was shaped by R1SKY and Nyx, described as key leaders from Farras Esports, and further strengthened by veteran presence such as A1MER.
That mix of leadership and experience translated into immediate competitiveness. EVOS looked sharp enough to defeat Vizualz Esports in the Upper Bracket Semifinals. Although their run later ended in the Lower Bracket Finals, where they lost narrowly 2-3 to Vizualz Esports, finishing third still gave EVOS a meaningful foundation to build on. In a debut season, staying close in elimination matches often signals that a roster is learning quickly, and that it can threaten stronger teams when it matters.
Vizualz’ Redemption Run Leads to the Title
If EVOS represented the arrival of new energy, Grand Finals 2026 became the stage for Vizualz Esports to prove that their competitiveness wasn’t a one-off. After being pushed down into the lower bracket, Vizualz rebounded by eliminating multiple opponents, ultimately returning to face EVOS and reversing the earlier loss with a 3-2 scoreline.
That kind of comeback path is significant in esports terms: it suggests resilience under pressure and the ability to adjust after setbacks. Coming back from the lower bracket also means every match carries higher stakes, and Vizualz’ progression indicates they were able to maintain momentum rather than fracture after the first defeat.
Dominant Final: Vizualz Sweep El Tantrum 4-0
The championship match delivered a clear statement of intent. Vizualz Esports overwhelmed El Tantrum with a 4-0 sweep to secure the CODM Major Series 2026 title. This victory also marks Vizualz’ third Major Series championship, following their wins in Season 12 and Season 13, when the organization was still known as ABC Esports.
With this result, Vizualz Esports alongside El Tantrum officially represents Indonesia in the CODM World Championship - Garena Qualifier. For Indonesian CODM, that means the offline Grand Finals didn’t just end a season, it determined which teams will carry the region’s momentum into the next international challenge.
Overall, CODM Major Series 2026 offered a rare combination: the long-awaited return of offline competition, a debut storyline with EVOS, and a dominant championship performance from Vizualz. After years of disruption, the Grand Finals at Atrium Mal Taman Anggrek confirmed that Indonesia’s CODM scene is ready to compete, and to celebrate, again in full public view.
