On March 2, the grand final of Masters Bangkok 2025 came to an end, with G2 Esports falling to T1, securing second place in the tournament. Players and staff shared their thoughts and emotions on the loss, and we've gathered their reactions here.

We fought bravely and showed incredible resilience, but it wasn’t enough to take the trophy. Losses are part of life, and we continue to build our future. I’m proud that we never gave up.

JoshRT, Head Coach

I’m incredibly proud of this team. This is a tough loss, and it’s not easy to process. I truly believe we deserved to win, considering all the hard work we put in, but sometimes life doesn’t reward us the way we expect.

shhhack, Assistant Coach

This was probably the most fun game I’ve ever played. I know I didn’t perform my best today, but I’ll be better next time. T1 is an insane team with incredible players, and they deserved this win more than us.

T1 played an amazing game today. Both teams gave it their all, but there can only be one winner, and this time, it wasn’t us. I love my team, and everyone in it deserves this trophy. Thank you for the support—this loss will be our motivation to work even harder.

Honestly, this was one of the greatest displays of resilience I’ve ever seen from my team. We played well, but it just wasn’t enough.

We didn’t meet expectations, but we’ll come back even stronger at the next tournament.

This really is just the beginning of our journey. We know we have everything needed to win, but our goal is to keep growing and learning so that we can reach where we truly belong.
