During the 2024 China-ASEAN Esports Competition, PH team Sibol bagged bronze in Honor of Kings (HOK) and dropped early in Mobile Legends (MLBB/ML).
The offline esports event that featured these mobile MOBA games was held on September 27, 2024, at Howard Johnson CAEXPO Plaza in Nanning, China.
Sibol HOK bags bronze
Philippines esports team Sibol, bannered by BOOM Esports HOK squad, started the tournament with a blaze of enthusiasm, winning its initial two matches against Thailand and Brunei, respectively, to secure a swift 2-0 lead in the group stage. However, the team ultimately suffered a defeat to the host team, China, to conclude the preliminary round.
Malaysia's elite team swept Sibol in the semis, preventing them from reaching the finals. Consequently, the all-Filipino team clinched the victory in an exhausting bronze medal match, 2-1, against Indonesia.
In addition to a bronze medal, the Sibol HOK team took home CNY 10,000 or around PHP 80K.
On the other hand, BOOM Esports won the Honor of Kings Championship 2024: Philippines Qualifier and will be competing in the international tournament (KC 2024) in October in Indonesia, thanks to their outstanding performance.
