International gaming developer and publisher MOONTON Games, the Philippines' premiere all-female professional gaming league SILAB, and the country's official national sports association (NSA) for eSports Philippine eSports Organization (PeSO) recently announced the launch of "SILAB: Road to MWI Finals 2024", an all-female qualifier tournament for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) Women’s Invitational in the country. The competition will run on April 21-May 12, 2024 and will grant a spot at the MWI 2024 to be held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in July 2024.

SILAB is founded by renowned and dedicated local eSports female personalities comprising of Liga Adarna founder and former commissioner Queen Wasabi, Overdrive Creative Studios Founder and CEO Dani Rogacion, MLBB Professional League (MPL) Philippines caster Chantelle Hernandez, and Fantech PH eSports and PR Manager Jang Bien. “This partnership with MOONTON Games is a testament to their commitment to creating a platform for women and by women. We are grateful to MOONTON Games for creating the way towards inclusivity by mounting this event with us. May this initiative encourage women in eSports to venture beyond their comfort zones and empower them to share their own narratives of success,” says Hernandez.

“At MOONTON Games, we give importance to the representation of women in eSports. With the launch of 'SILAB: Road to MWI Finals 2024', we hope that this platform will put the spotlight on our Filipina MLBB gamers to be seen and heard as they are equally strong and talented as our male gamers. Filipinas, apart from being managers, coaches, hosts, and casters, are also strong MLBB eSports athletes,” says MOONTON Games BD and Partnerships Lead Lee Viloria. “We are delighted that this partnership between MOONTON and Silab will bring much-needed momentum to move forward women in eSports. We believe that eSports is a great avenue to further push gender equality in sports and this collaboration will ignite the flames and light the way for our eSports community as a whole,” said PESO SIBOL General Manager Jab Escutin.
