Battle Arena Malaysia brings you the Flight of the Valkyries, the first-ever SEA & China all-female DOTA2 LAN tournament with a total prize pool of RM 20,000.
Battle Area’s Official Gaming Partners for this tournament are MSI and NVIDIA; Official Peripheral Partner, Corsair; and event partner, Genysis Cyber E-Sports.
Our Objectives
Abbreviated as ‘FV’, the Flight of the Valkyries’ tournament brand aims to be the voice of female empowerment in esports. We hope increase the awareness of the female community in this male-dominated industry, as there are many passionate females who have been deterred from pursuing a career in the esports industry due to the lack of a friendly environment and opportunities.
Flight of the Valkyries will be the first-ever LAN international DOTA 2 championships exclusively for women, serving as the only available offline platform for women to hone their skills and compete against one another in a professional setting. By organizing this tournament annually, we hope that more female gamers will be encouraged to give competitive gaming a try.
Flight of the Valkyries – Highlights
There are many hidden, talented females in the region and we intend to bring the audience exclusive
content which introduces a side of the female community that’s never been seen before. Therefore, the Flight of the Valkyries project will take a different marketing approach – by casting the spotlight on individual female players in the esports industry, we allow the esports audience to get to know the players on a personal level, learning about their hometown, their passions and how they came to be where they are now.
Through this unique initiative, we hope that this tournament will set the stage and pave the way for more professional female tournaments in the future.
Tournament Details
Registration is opened to all female teams residing in the Southeast Asian and China region. There are
no restrictions as to each team’s nationality composition as we want to encourage as much participation as possible. Our SEA Online Open Qualifiers begins on the 29th December 2018. 8 qualified teams will be flown in to compete at the LAN Grand Finals on the 19th – 20th January 2019 at Battle Arena Malaysia.
