BLAST to Bring Top-Tier Esports Events to Singapore in 2024 and 2025

Esports entertainment company BLAST has announced plans to host two popular esports events in Singapore in 2024 and 2025.
BLAST will bring both world-class Counter-Strike and Dota 2 tournaments to the heart of Southeast Asia, marking a major step in Singapore’s emergence as an esports and gaming hub. Supported by the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), these high-profile events will bring the world’s best esports teams and players from all across the world to compete in Singapore.
BLAST has teamed up with AEG Presents Asia, one of the world’s largest live entertainment entities to bring these events to Singapore. The partnership forms part of BLAST’s ambition to create the best esports experiences by working closely with premier destinations and the biggest and best live entertainment partners.
More than half of global esports views (57%) are estimated to come from the Asia Pacific region, 47% more than any other region in the world with the global market valued at $1.6 billion.
By bringing the top-tier Counter-Strike and Dota 2 tournaments to Singapore, BLAST aims
to attract global esports talent, foster local growth, and elevate Singapore’s status as a destination for world-class esports entertainment.
James Woollard, Director of Market Development at BLAST, said: “We are incredibly excited to bring two of the biggest esports titles to this vibrant destination. Over the coming 18 months, Singapore will become a major hub for esports in Southeast Asia, and with the support of the Singapore Tourism Board, we look forward to delivering unforgettable experiences for fans while helping to build a thriving esports ecosystem in the region. Bringing the first BLAST arena event to Singapore is an exciting first step in this journey. The World Final will see the world’s best Counter-Strike players and teams fighting for a $1,000,000 total prize pool.”
Ms Ong Ling Lee, Executive Director, Sports and Wellness, Singapore Tourism Board, said, “We are excited to host the BLAST Premier World Final and the BLAST Dota Slam in Singapore. The Counter-Strike event marks the first BLAST-branded event in Southeast Asia and the inaugural Counter-Strike tournament series in the region, solidifying Singapore’s position as a world-class esports destination. We are confident that the international participants and their legions of fans will have a memorable experience in Singapore, immersing themselves in the diverse and dynamic offerings of our city.”
The World Final 2024 will take place from 30th October – 3rd November and will be the first BLAST event to take place in Singapore, followed by the BLAST Dota Slam in 2025. The World Final will be the biggest Counter-Strike event to take place in Singapore, where the world’s best eight Counter-Strike teams will compete for a massive prize pool of $1,000,000 and the chance to claim bragging rights as the best team around.
Qualified World Final teams: NAVI, Team Spirit, Team Vitality, FaZe Clan and G2 Esports.

Team Liquid Win The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid Season Cup at the 2025 Esports World Cup in a Thrilling Best-of-Seven Domination

Team Liquid have won the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid Season Cup at 2025 Esports World Cup title with a dominant 4-1 victory. They took down SELANGOR RED GIANTS OG ESPORTS in a thrilling best-of-seven.
Team Liquid will take home $1,000,000 for their victory, claiming the lion’s share of the $3,000,000 prize pool. The Filipino team went unbeaten in the tournament, dropping just two games prior to the grand final.
The grand final started with some difficulty for Team Liquid as it was a one-sided match in favour of SELANGOR RED GIANTS OG ESPORTS. However, it proved to be just a minor setback for Team Liquid, as the Filipino squad struck back even harder in the following games, steadily gaining momentum, and winning four matches in a row. With so much to play for in the final game, Team Liquid could have folded under the pressure of it all, but instead, they doubled down and dominated.
SELANGOR RED GIANTS OG ESPORTS had a solid run during the tournament, having to battle through the lower bracket semifinals in the group stage. Two 3-2 victories in the knockout stage set them up for the grand final. The defending Mid Season Cup champions were unable to keep their great run going, however, as Team Liquid were too strong for them in the grand final.
“I honestly can’t fathom how I feel right now,” said Karl “KarlTzy” Nepomuceno. “I am insanely happy, the feeling is so much different from other tournaments I have won.”
Sanford “Sanford” Vinuya was named the SONY MVP following the impressive comeback win in the final. He will receive an additional $10,000 and the MVP medal to recognise his achievements.
“I owe it to my teammates,” said Sanford “Sanford” Vinuya. “I have grown into a strong fighter, so thank you so much.”
Team Liquid earn 1000 Club Championship points for their victory, which secures their spot at the top of the Club Championship standings. With the Club’s second Championship win in two days, they now sit on 3200 Club Championship points, with second-place Team Falcons on 2700. Having had 12 unique title winners in the first 12 events of the EWC 25, Team Liquid managed to claim a second title in back-to-back days to end that incredible streak.
