Get ready for the best of the best! Moonton is making waves by bringing the grand Mobile Legends: Bang Bang tournament to the esports hub of the modern world – none other than Saudi Arabia!
This July, mark your calendars as MLBB takes center stage at the Esports World Cup. The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid Season Cup (MSC) and the MLBB Women’s Invitational (MWI) are making history by stepping out of Southeast Asia and landing in the heart of Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.
What’s at stake, you ask? A mind-blowing prize pool of $3 million, making it the largest in the history of the game. We’re talking about a substantial leap from the previous peak of $900,000 in the M5 World Championship. It even outshines the state-sponsored Games of the Future 2024 event, which boasts a $1 million prize pool for MLBB tournaments.
To ensure inclusivity and global competition, the MSC 2024 will incorporate a Wild Card Stage, similar to M5, allowing more regions and teams to fight for their place in the spotlight. Here’s how the main stage slots are allocated:
