The Kazakh had to admit defeat to the Free Pyramid World Champion from 2005 , Yuri Pashchinsky , 3: 4. In addition, Armen Gabrielian, the World Cup finalist of the Free Pyramid in 2011, dropped out.

In the quarter-finals, the previous year's final was reissued. Nikita Liwada was able to prevail again against Oleksandr Palamar, this time with 5: 2. Kanat Sydykow, who only took part in a World Cup for the second time and had reached the final round for the first time, continued his winning streak in the quarter-finals against last year's third Jaroslaw Tarnowezkyj 5-2. Oleksandr Boiko had to admit defeat to Alexander Tschepikow 1: 5. With the same result, Yuri Pashchinsky won against Dauren Urynbajew. In the semifinals, Tschepikow only narrowly won 6: 5 against Sydykow and Pashchinsky defeated Liwada 6: 3. For the first time two Russians reached the final of a world championship in the combined pyramid.

While 29-year-old Yuri Pashchinsky was in a World Cup final for the third time and had already become world champion in the Free Pyramid in 2005, Alexander Tschepikow, who was four years younger than him, had never made it past the last sixteen in his four World Cup appearances. Nevertheless, Chepikov won the first of a maximum of thirteen games. The favorite Pashchinsky then won three games, the last of which with an eight-point series. In the fifth game, Tschepikow again managed a series of eight. The sixth game was secured by Pashchinsky, who took the lead 4-2. Then Tschepikow turned the game. He won the following five games, in which his opponent only scored ten points, and became world champion for the first time by winning 7-4.
