Crazy Raccoon has emerged victorious at the Overwatch Champions Clash 2025, defeating Team Falcons 4-2 in a high-stakes Grand Final that adds another chapter to one of the most compelling rivalries in the Overwatch competitive scene. With the win, the Japanese roster secures a direct qualification to the Midseason Championship in July, part of the Overwatch Champions Series (OWCS), to be held at the Esports World Cup.
The Champions Clash took place from April 18 to 20 in Hangzhou, China, featuring eight top teams from regional Stage 1 events. Both Crazy Raccoon and Team Falcons came into the tournament as heavy favorites, having dominated their respective regions and consistently performed on the international stage.
Despite their strong reputation, Crazy Raccoon’s road to the title wasn’t without obstacles. After a convincing 2-0 win over Spacestation in their opening match, they were knocked into the lower bracket by North American squad NTMR in a 1-3 upset. Undeterred, the Raccoons fought their way back, eliminating Virtus.pro (3-1) and Once Again before exacting revenge on NTMR with a commanding 3-0 victory in the Lower Bracket Final.
In the Grand Final, Crazy Raccoon once again found themselves on the back foot early. Team Falcons took the first map, Oasis, 2-1, and followed it up with a 3-1 win on Suravasa. However, Crazy Raccoon quickly turned the tide. Despite a close loss on the Push map Runasapi (85.17m to 133.25m), the Japanese squad rallied to win three straight maps — Route 66 (3-2), Esperança (125.3m to 68.96m), and Circuit Royal (4-3) — to close out the series and claim the trophy.
