Nineteen players, mostly members of the Institute of Integrated Electrical Engineers (IIEE), participated in the simultaneous games against International Master Roderick Nava with a time odds of 7 minutes for each player who had 20mins. This was held last November 30, 2024 at SMX Pasay City during the 49th IIEE Annual National Conventions.

Others who posted victories are IIEE Imports, AIM Jason Rojo (1986), Rodel Hose Juadinez (1962) and Mark Jerome Prudencio.
Kevin Arquero (2340) needed to beat Sherwin Tiu (2313) to capture the 1st Armageddon Battle of Champions among the 8 edition champions and runner ups. Arquero beat Keiffer Pelias (2016) and Suacillo before being relegated in the loser’s bracket with a loss versus Tiu. He bested National Master Romeo Alcodia (2083) to move to the Finals. Tiu had to beat all opponents which included Tizon, CM Genghis Imperial (2073) and Arquero.
