EDward Gaming star Zheng “ZmjjKK” Yongkang, better known as Kangkang, has broken the all-time kill record for a single player in a best-of-five Valorant series at the Grand Final of Champions 2024.
In case you missed the action that unfolded last night, EDG took down Team Heretics 3-2 in the Grand Final of Valorant Champions 2024 after a nail-biter BO5 series. At the end of the series, Kangkang managed to reign supreme at the top of the combined leaderboard with a whopping 111 kills over three games, breaking the former record which was set at 105 kills by Kim “t3xture” Na-ra at the VCT Pacific Stage 1 Grand Final against Paper Rex.
As a result, Kangkang was crowned as the MVP of the series.
Kangkang kicked off the Champions 2024 Grand Final with a solid 22 kills with Neon on Haven, but Team Heretics managed to secure the map pretty convincingly. EDG bounced back on the next two maps, where Kangkang had an impressive 22 kills and 24 kills on Sunset and Lotus respectively.
The fourth map, Bind, saw the closest competition between the two teams. However, Team Heretics managed to come out on top with a 13-11 victory. Kangkang ended the map with 24 kills on his Raze.
Abyss was the decider map for the Champions 2024 Grand Final, in which Kangkang ended with 19 kills, helping EDG secure the series win for themselves.
