The Indian MOBA esports scene is finally gaining traction, which has been missing for the Indian scene for a long time. Recently, Moba 5v5 Esports India announced the MOBA Legends Masters Series tournament. This is the official entry platform for Indian teams to compete at the MSC stage of the Esports World Cup 2026. For the first time, an Indian team will qualify directly to compete against the best teams in the world in Riyadh.
MOBA Legends 5v5 Master Series Registration and Path to Riyadh
Since there are no official dates out yet and the main event is scheduled for July 29 to August 1, 2026, time is of the essence, and so, registrations are expected to commence by the end of March 2026, giving teams ample time to compete in the qualifiers and sort out their travel plans as well.
This will also give the domestic circuit time to identify the best players who are skilled enough to perform under pressure when they compete internationally. Any aspiring pro players should make sure their teams are ready and their rank game is tight, as winning this series is not only about winning locally, it is about earning a ticket to fly to Saudi Arabia.
