The Predator League PUBG LAN Qualifier is about to enter its decisive and fiery two-day action at the Empire City Mall in Selangor, Malaysia from October 27 through October 28. A lot is at stake and 16 teams are progressing to the venue this weekend to fight for a chance to get to the main event next year and win an artefact known as the “Predator Shield”, plus the even more incentivizing pile of money.

All participating squads are established names on the Malaysian esports scene, including Lapar Esports, Gift Esports Alpha, The Face Gaming, Quacker and Asbol. From our reporting on Malaysia, the country has created a vibrant ecosystem that endorses grassroots teams allowing them to develop their full potential and progress to fully-fledged esports organizations.

More equally accomplished teams who are headed for Empire City Mall in two days include Battle Arena Elite, Fizrix Gaming, Gold Army Factory and Awful Squad are listed as participants. Meanwhile, a second team fielded by the Lapar organization also made the cut with Lapa Genesis securing a spot.

Excellent Streaming Opportunities

We were unable to identify the information we needed from the Predator League website, suspecting that the content may not be available in English. However, social networks and the support of local esports analysts has helped us flesh out the details.

The PUBG Predator Cup event will be casted by Jinn and The Hound who are stablished esports personalities in the Southeast Asian region and have collaborated on other projects in the past, we have been able to tell from a Twitter shared on The Hound’s social media channel.

In our short series reporting on Malaysia’s esports, we have been able to determine that the country has a well-developed ecosystem, which allows gamers to stay in the know. Esports streaming is another significant aspect of the community in Malaysia that is both encouraged and well received.

In 2016, the Selangor Cyber Games invited a host of international hosts to cover the specific games that were featured at the festival and among the invitees was famous Dota 2 commentator Jorien “Sheever” van der Heijden.

Lock and load, because the weekend promises enough esports action for everyone. Remember to tune in to Mineski’s official Twitch channel to watch the event live.
