Rain or Shine won the series, four games to three, capturing their first championship in their franchise history. The Elasto Painters also prevented a possible series comeback from B-Meg after the Llamados won games 5 and 6 coming from a 1–3 deficit, in which last time to do so was during the 1991 First Conference finals when Ginebra San Miguel won against Shell Rimula X from a 1–3 deficit.
