Virtus.pro became the winners of the first Major of the season by beating Team Secret in a five-game thriller at the Kuala Lumpur Major on Sunday.

The victory for the Russian side, who lost to Secret in the Upper Bracket Finals and had to overcome Evil Geniuses in the Lower Bracket, denied a home win for Team Secret's Yeik "MidOne" Nai Zheng, who was a crowd favourite as he was the remaining Malaysian player left in the country's first-ever Dota 2 Major tournament.

VP drew first blood before their opponents took a 2-1 lead with strong performances by Yazied "YapzOr" Jaradat and MidOne in Game 2 and 3 respectively.

Secret looked favourites to seal the KL Major crown in Game 4 with good early plays, but Roman "Ramzes666" Kushnarev inspired a late comeback for VP by outfarming his opponents with his usage of Terrorblade.

Ramzes666 struck again with Terrorblade in the decisive game to seal the Major and US$350,000 for his side, while Secret as runners-up took home US$170,000.
