MANILA - Team Secret failed to qualify for Valorant Champions in Istanbul after succumbing to Indonesia's Onic G in the lower bracket of the Last Chance Qualifiers, Saturday.

Onic G drew first blood on Fracture. Team Secret equalized after making a 7-3 run from Round 15, bringing the game down the wire.

Onic carried a 12-9 lead over the Filipinos in Game 3. Team Secret, led by Jremy, pulled up clutch plays and was a match closer to forcing a round overtime.

But Onic got its act together to eliminate the Philippines' last chance at a world championship slot this year.

Team Secret secured a win in the upper bracket quarterfinals against Made in Thailand, before sinking to the lower bracket after a sweep by Malaysian-Singaporean squad Bleed Esports.

Team Secret qualified for Champions last year, when Berlin, Germany hosted the tournament. They entered the playoffs but were eliminated in round 1 by eventual champs Acend.
