However, what made this tournament significant was that it was a milestone in regional cooperation in esports, which was missing for a long time, especially after the ban of PUBG Mobile in India.
Before the ban, India used to be an active part of the South Asian circuit, and we had the chance to witness India vs Nepal many times. The India-Nepal rivalry was a testament to the popularity of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang in South Asia, as it attracted a lot of viewers.
Moreover, the match showcased the improvement in the level of play in the region, from macro to mechanical plays. The fact that the Indian teams took the second and first spots, respectively, also proved that India is on its way to dominating the MOBA scene.
