Mobile Legends:
Bang Bang (MLBB) Women's Invitational (MWI) 2024 officially announces the Group
Stage schedule for the upcoming biggest MLBB esports tournament for women. Held
in conjunction with the maiden Esports World Cup in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, MWI
2024 gathers 12 international teams to showcase their gaming prowess to the
world, starting 24 July, at 12:00 (GMT+3) or 17:00 (GMT+8).
The tournament will
provide female players with the platform to claim the title of the best
all-women MLBB team, and offers a life-changing prize pool of USD 500,000 – one
of the highest-ever in women's esports history. The opener will feature
Indonesia's Team Falcons Vega (FLCV) and Cambodia's CFUSerendipity
(CFU).
FLCV (formerly GPX
Basreng) is considered the biggest threat to Team Vitality (VIT), the team that
is currently dominating the scene. Being the second-best team in Indonesia,
FLCV is arguably the hungriest team to snatch the title this year. Their
prolific roster will have a faceoff with CFU to be fielded by its
promising players, including its jungler Rin “Tegami” Chanthana, popular for
her fatal Lancelot. The team is not to be underestimated as they are known to
bounce back from adversity, as seen in their qualifiers match, where they
successfully reached the grand finals of the Cambodia qualifier from the lower
bracket and bested 20 Khmer teams.
On 25 July, Team
Falcons MENA (FLCN) will duke it out against Victory Song
Gamers (VSG) of Eastern Europe and Central Asia (EECA). FLCN, the home
team and the brightest star in the Middle East, will be looking to spread their
wings against VSG to make a name for themselves globally. On the other hand,
Russian powerhouse VSG looks to take the competition by storm through its new
lineup, which includes imports from the Philippines.
A much-anticipated
match in the Land of Dawn will be the possible face-off between Indonesia's
Team Vitality (VIT) and the Philippines Smart Omega Empress (OMGE), both of
whom are tournament favourites and expected to dominate their respective
groups.
VIT, formerly
Bigetron Era (BTR), has an award-winning roster that includes Southeast Asia
(SEA) Games MLBB Gold Medalist, Vivian "Vivi" Indrawaty, dubbed as
the "Indonesian Mother of Tanks." After winning the first two
iterations of MWI as BTR, they are the most favorite team to clinch the title
this year.
Vivi and the team
will face long-term rival Smart Omega Empress (OMGE), led by its roamer, Mery
Christine "Meraaay" Vivero, whose main goal is to take revenge on the
Indonesian powerhouse after losing to them in the last SEA Games 2023.
The top two teams
of each group will proceed to the Playoffs Stage, starting on 26 July. The team
from each group with the lowest points will end their tournament journey.
The first day of
the Playoffs Stage will be in a single elimination Best-of-Three (BO3) format.
On the other hand, the second day, or on 27 July, will be in a
single-elimination BO5 match series.
