4Thrives: the climb from Pakistan to a Global Open title

Overview

4Thrives went from a national title in 2025 to the Global Open trophy in Jakarta. In September the same core won South Asia again, then took bronze for Pakistan at the Asian Games.

The national win came first

4Thrives was founded in Pakistan in December 2024, with South Asia as its competitive region. Its 2025 results include the PMNC Pakistan Spring title, third at PMSL Central & South Asia Spring and seventh at the PUBG MOBILE World Cup. Those finishes put the team into national, regional and global competition early in its history.

Jakarta put the name on the trophy

The Season 1 Global Open Main Event in Jakarta was the defining win: 4Thrives took the title and the $62,500 first-place prize. Their South Asia title had earned the Main Event place, and in Jakarta they won again.

On stage, the champions’ board and the Pakistan flag framed the trophy lift. For an organisation founded less than two years earlier, Jakarta was a step well beyond the domestic and regional results that brought it there.

Five players across three settings

FALAK, T24OP, HUZAIFA, Nocki and IQ recur in the 2026 regional and national-team records. IQ is listed as captain. HUZAIFA’s Season 2 South Asia Finals MVP adds an individual award to that team history.

Local coverage uses the 4Thrives Walee name after Walee’s mid-2026 acquisition. The competition and team database entries often remain under 4Thrives Esports. Both names refer to this organisation; the Asian Games result belongs to Pakistan’s national team, not to either club name.

A regional trophy, then a national medal

Kathmandu brought a second South Asia title: 208 points across twenty matches, a $9,000 prize and qualification for Lahore. Later that month, the Pakistan side finished third at the Asian Games with 100 points, behind Thailand and China.

September ended with success in two jerseys. The regional title earned 120 PMGC points for 4Thrives. The bronze belonged to Pakistan’s national medal tally, with the same core playing under the country’s name.

A home event offers a new result to earn

The Season 2 Global Open in Lahore, scheduled for 20–25 October, returns the team to Pakistan as Season 1 global champions. They already have a Main Event place through the regional final. The next question is how they perform against the international field.
