Reason Gaming won the ESL UK Overwatch Premiership on Sunday, preventing MnM Gaming from delivering a clean sweep across three games over the weekend.
MnM won the CSGO Premiership last Friday and the League of Legends tournament on Saturday, but Reason stepped up to beat them in the Overwatch final.
MnM actually took the first map, but Reason came back into the series and established a 2-1 lead, before taking the final game on Gibraltar and winning 3-1 overall.
You can check out the full match from this VoD on the ESL Overwatch Twitch channel from around the 2 hour 28 minute mark.
Realzx put in an MVP performance for Reason, pulling off an impressive play of the match as Mei. He filled in to help Reason out.

Team Project originally approached Reason to help them get to the LAN finals, and agreed to play as Reason at the event.
Reason’s Chris “Christfer” Graham said on losing the first game: “I felt it was more us losing it than them winning it. Our defense was pretty good but obviously our attack was terrible.
“So we went away, we talked about it and came away with the win.
“On Dorado I was thinking, ‘okay these guys are really good’, but we managed to clutch it out in the end. I think we held them in the same spot for about four minutes on Dorado. On Gibraltar I think they were gone mentally after that.”
Christfer added: “We haven’t spoken to the Reason CSGO boys, but there was no way we were going to let MnM win all three [tournaments]!
