Infinix Note 11 Series WEC 2021: All we know about the third-place team, Orangutan Elite

Infinix Note 11 Series World Esports Cup (WEC) 2021 ended recently and that marked the end of the two-and-half month-long competition. At the tournament finals, there were several key moments that changed the fate of many teams and Orangutan Elite was one of the influential factors for turning the tides as the tournament went forward. Even though they could not win the event, they walked away with a third-place finish and made their fans proud.

Total Gaming claimed the victory at WEC 2021 Grand finals and walked away with ₹35,00,000 at the end. This journey was commendable, but Orangutan Elite pulled off a similar victory on the second day but could not continue their journey upwards. Orangutan Elite had a dreadful day on day one of the grand finals as they fumbled to find a perfect footing and ended up being in the eighth spot after the first six matches. The first day did not crack their confidence but boosted it in a massive way.

They had a miracle run on the second day and rose to the second spot, a jump of six ranks in a mere six matches. This rise gave them a comfortable kickstart that they needed but somehow, they could only maintain the consistent performance and could not pull any more miracles in the upcoming days.

As a result of their consistent performance, they finished the tournament in third place and won a total of ₹8,00,000. Orangutan esports partnered up with Team Elite to form Orangutan Elite and acquired their entire roster. The lineup is as follows:

1. Dev “Iconic” Kumar
2. Lokesh “Pahadi” Karakoti
3. Aditya “Killer” Singh Sikarwar
4. Rohit “RDP” Sahu
5. Ajay “Jonty” Kumar Banga

They won a total of four matches in the grand finale and had killed 128 opponents in their matches. Their total points were 304 at the end of WEC 2021.
