BetBoom Team rallied past Team Spirit for a 2-1 win on Saturday in the upper-bracket final at the DreamLeague Season 24 event.

The win sends BetBoom Team to Sunday's best-of-five grand final, where they will either reconvene with Team Spirit or face Team Falcons for the $300,000 first-place prize.

Playing on green in all three matches, BetBoom lost a marathon 73-minute contest to Spirit before rallying for a 33-minute win that was followed by a 25-minute victory.

Russia's Gleb "kiyotaka" Zyryanov led BetBoom Team with averages of 9.0 kills, 3.3 deaths and 9.0 assists.

With the loss, Team Spirit dropped into Sunday's lower-bracket final, where they will collide with Team Falcons in a best-of-three match.

Team Falcons stayed alive in the tournament earlier Saturday by beating PARIVISION 2-0 in the lower-bracket semifinal. After a 40-minute win on green, Team Falcons remained hot with a 42-minute triumph on red.
