BetBoom Team swept Aurora Gaming 3-0 on Sunday to win the grand final and the $300,000 top prize of the PGL Wallachia Season 8 event at Bucharest, Romania.

It was a rematch of Saturday's upper-bracket final that BetBoom Team won 2-1.

To reach the grand final, Aurora needed to beat Team Falcons earlier Sunday in the lower-bracket final. Aurora pulled off the 2-0 win to advance to the best-of-five grand final.

Sixteen teams began the $1 million Dota 2 tournament with the top eight advancing from the Swiss-system group stage. The double-elimination playoffs continued with all matches best-of-three until the best-of-five grand final on Sunday.

BetBoom Team opened the grand final with a challenging 62-minute victory on green, then followed with a 42-minute triumph on red. They wrapped up the championship by winning again on green, this time in 49 minutes.

Russian Danil "gpk~" Skutin guided BetBoom with a 32-2-48 kill-death-assist ratio over three games. Russia's Ilya "Kiritych" Ulyanov aided BetBoom with a 32-9-33 K-D-A ratio.
