And finishing on double 10 was a winning formula for Littler as he hit it with incredibly regularity to clinch a host of legs.
The Warrington wonderkid has made the double his own over the last 12 months and is known to use it to checkout.
Yet his brilliance on the segment still left some in awe during his comprehensive victory over Van Gerwen.
And commentator Dan Dawson said: “It’s a cheat code for Luke Littler tonight, that double 10.”
Darts fans on social media agreed with Dawson as they poured in with their responses.
One said: “Littler on double 10, you know what’s coming, you can’t stop it.”
Another added: “Littler on the double 10 is a joke .”
A third replied: “Death, taxes and The Nuke checking out on a double 10.”
