Team manager Fabien Ong, said “We are
extremely proud to be invited to WESG as Singapore’s representative, something
that we experienced last year at the World Championships. It is also great to
see Vainglory as a title picked up by yet another major esports program and
shows that the game is growing. The move to 5V5 has added strategic depth to
the most visually stunning mobile MOBA, and is surely a winning combination for
an esports title.”
