Exciting news for eSports just in as Garena AOV will crown one representing team to L.A. from the Valiant server (Malaysia, Singapore and Philippines) at the Grand Finals which will be held this weekend at the SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City, Philippines, on the 26th & 27th of May 2018.The winner of the Road to AWC Grand Finals will be granted a seat in the Arena of Valor World Cup (AWC) which will take place in July at Los Angeles where they will have the opportunity to win a portion from its’ enormous prize pool. With a prize pool of USD $550,000, AWC currently holds the record for being the world’s biggest mobile eSports tournament.
Last weekend, Malaysia and Singapore determined their respective national representatives. On Sunday, May 27th, teams Resurgence (Malaysia) and Tamago (Singapore) will be meeting the winner of this Saturday’s Road to AWC Philippines National Qualifiers. All teams have had a long yet competitive journey which began with Valor Cup Season 1 in February 2018. The only obstacle that’s stopping these national representatives from reaching their goal of representing the Valiant server is a Round Robin and Best-of-7 series.
“I can still vividly recall the intense finals which saw Wil New Era coming from behind to be crowned champions for Valor Cup Season 1. The stakes are even higher in Season 2, with qualification to the AOV World Cup up for grabs. I will definitely be looking forward to an exciting weekend at the SM Mall of Asia for our Season 2 Grand Finals.” commented Mr Justin Lye, Product Manager of Arena of Valor (AOV).
