Marcos' iNSANE Summer Split crown

Overview

On 25 September 2021, Marcos Gaming won the iNSANE Summer Split, taking ₹50,000 of the ₹1,00,000 prize pool (about $1,351 in the records' figures). 8Bit finished runners-up on ₹30,000 and Galaxy Racer were third on ₹20,000. The event was organised and self-sponsored by TEAM iNSANE, who competed themselves and finished sixth; the Grand Finals ran 23–25 September with the full event spanning 25 August to 26 September.

The bracket was one of 2021's biggest: 2,000 teams in pre-qualifiers narrowing through 800, 240 and 60 (including 12 invited) to a 19-team finals, with four matches per day on Erangel, Miramar and Sanhok. Soul finished fifth and GodLike 18th in the finals. No MVP or fragger award was found in any source.

The official day-three Grand Finals livestream confirms the ₹1,00,000 cash and merchandise pool and 20 listed slots. A minor note: the stream description says 23–26 September while Liquipedia and the records say 23–25; the latter dates are used here.

The record is verified: the Marcos Gaming win, the full podium, the dates, and the prize split. No MVP was ever published for this edition.

iNSANE Summer Split 2021 finals swung on the second matchday for the chasing teams. Marcos Gaming totalled 137 points across the three matchdays, built from daily scores of 43, 44 and 50, while 8Bit recorded the single biggest daily score of the finals with 76 points but added only 22 and 19 on the other days.
