Malaysia, the only seeded team from Southeast Asia, beat Saudi Arabia 2-0 in their quarter-final at the China Hangzhou Esports Centre today.
E-sports is making its debut as a medal event at this year’s Asian Games after being featured as a demonstration sport at the last edition in Palembang-Jakarta in 2018
According to a report in Sin Chew Daily, it took Malaysia’s representatives a tough three-hour battle to secure victory over their opponents in a best-of-three format tie at the China Hangzhou Esports Centre today. Popular video games such as “Counter-Strike” and “Dota 2” have been highly popular over the past decade, leading to the creation of e-sports as an event at sporting tournaments – which has filled stadiums and attracted millions of online viewers.
A total of 14 teams are participating in the Dota 2 event at the Asian Games and only five are seeded teams – which get to start directly in the quarter-finals as opposed to playing group stage games.
