Set out to bring us the biggest DOTA 2 league in the country, U Mobile, Logitech G and Mineski Events team up to bring us the inaugral Malaysia eSports League (MESL)!
MESL is likely to be THE biggest DOTA 2 eSports league our country has seen to date, with an RM500,000 prizepool awaiting the winners. On top of this massive prize, the champion team will receive an additional RM50,000 if their team members are active U Mobile customers.
This is no small fry tournament either, as the event has some amazing sponsors to back it up:
- Title Sponsor: U Mobile
- Official Gaming Gear Sponsor: Logitech G
- Official Broadcaster: eGG Network
- Official Streaming Partner: Twitch.tv
The league itself will begin 2 September, with qualifiers running for both Peninsular and East Malaysia, where the top 16 teams from each qualifier will face off over the course of 3 months.
Then the top 8 teams will hit the playoffs, with the victors to duke it out at the MESL grand finals. All games will be aired on Astro’s eGG Network and Twitch.tv, all the way up to the grand finals. U Mobile customers will also be able to catch up on the action for free on Astro GO via Video-Onz, which affords subscribers free unlimited data for video streaming.
