Valor Cup S2 kicks off battles for SEA spot, partners with Globe for in-game exclusives

Valor Cup Season 2 opened big last weekend when the country’s top 3 teams battled it out to win the Philippine representation spot in this much-awaited Arena of Valor (AOV) tournament, with the PH rep ultimately winning against the top teams from Singapore and Malaysia.

Three teams participated for the Philippine National Qualifiers last Saturday at SM Mall of Asia Atrium: Wil New Era, Clutchguild, and Bren Esports.

The matches were on Best of 3 sets, where the final two spots were excitingly held by Wil New Era and Clutchguild. The PH representation was won ultimately by Clutchguild after a very tight win to the top, with Will New Era winning the first two rounds and Clutchguild sweeping the last three.

On Sunday, the battles continued as Philippine representation Clutchguild went against the teams from Singapore and Malaysia during the Southeast Asia Regional Finals.

After several intense sets, the spot representing the Southeast Asia region was proudly won by Clutchguild.
