Smart is powering the much-anticipated Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Southeast Asia Cup (MSC), starting on June 7.
After being postponed last year due to the pandemic, the major tournament will be the first iteration to be held online, which is presented in partnership with Mobile Legends: Bang Bang developer MOONTON Games.
Twelve teams from eight participating countries — namely the Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam —will be facing off against each other in playoffs, culminating in the finals on June 13. The prize pool amounts to a staggering $150,000 overall.
Avid Filipino gamers and fans can catch the livestream of the MSC Tournament and support their favorite teams on Smart’s official Facebook Page and Mobile Legends: Bang Bang’s official social media channels.
Blacklist International and Execration gears up for MSC
Coming from an emphatic win from the recently concluded MPL Season 7 Finals, Blacklist International will be the official representative of our country for the said tournament, along with the first runner-up, Execration.
“Our esports athletes have proven that we Filipinos have what it takes to dominate competitive esports. We are rooting for them again at the MSC, which is a huge platform to showcase their skills in the international arena and inspire more Filipinos to cultivate their passion in gaming, hone their skills, and chase their dreams with a much bigger purpose like carrying our flag,” said Jane J. Basas, Senior Vice President and Head of Consumer Wireless Business at Smart.
