ZOOS Esports punch the first Golden Ticket of 2026

A flawless run through the upper bracket, a stumble in Game 1, and a comeback in the reset. ZOOS Esports are the June Monthly Final champions and the first team booked for the World Championship Finals.

ZOOS Esports are your June Monthly Final champions, and the first team to claim a Golden Ticket to the 2026 Clash of Clans World Championship Finals.

Eight teams came to the first Monthly Final of the season. Only one walked away with a seat already booked for Worlds. After two days of Town Hall 18 warfare, it was ZOOS Esports who refused to be put down, surviving a grand final reset that came down to the very last percentage point.

A perfect march through the upper bracket

ZOOS did not just qualify for the grand final. They bulldozed their way there without dropping a single war.

That Round 2 line is not a typo. Fifteen stars. One hundred percent. A flawless wipe of VA Esports, the kind of war that announces a title contender. By the time ZOOS reached the grand final, they held the only unbeaten record left in the building.

Repotted Gaming and the road through the dark

Waiting for them was a team that had taken the hardest possible path. Repotted Gaming were knocked into the lower bracket in Round 1 by MG Esports, then went on a tear, winning four straight elimination wars to claw back to the final:

  • Lower R1: defeated Saturn eSports, 14★ and 98.20 percent
  • Lower R2: defeated VA Esports, 11★ to 11★ on destruction (94.20 to 87.80)
  • Lower R3: defeated CB7 Esports, 11★ to 10★
  • Lower Final: defeated MG Esports, 11★ to 10★, avenging the team that sent them down

Four wars, four wins, no margin for error. Repotted arrived at the grand final hardened by the gauntlet, and they were not done writing their story.

The grand final

Because Repotted came up from the lower bracket, ZOOS needed to win just one war. Repotted needed two.

Game 1 went to the underdogs. Repotted edged an extremely tight war, 11★ and 91.80 percent to ZOOS' 10★ and 88.00 percent, forcing the bracket reset. Suddenly the unbeaten favourites were one loss from heartbreak, and the lower bracket story was one war from a fairytale.

Game 2 was as close as Clash gets. Both clans maxed out at 13 stars apiece, so the war could not be split on stars. It came down to destruction, where ZOOS edged it by barely two percent to complete the comeback and seal the championship.

What a Golden Ticket means

The June Monthly Final was the very first of the 2026 season, which makes ZOOS Esports the first team locked into the World Championship Finals. While the rest of the field heads back to the qualifiers to chase the remaining slots, ZOOS can plan their season around one certainty. They will be at Worlds.

First Monthly. First Golden Ticket. First name on the wall.
