The champions of the Honor of Kings Invitational Series 2 have been crowned, with LGD Gaming Malaysia emerging victorious in the popular mobile MOBA. Their triumph not only secured them the gold but also the lion's share of a $300,000 prize pool after defeating Team Secret in the grand finals.
This victory paves the way for LGD Gaming Malaysia to compete in the Honor of Kings Invitational Midseason tournament at the Esports World Cup in Saudi Arabia in August. They will face 12 other international teams, vying for additional prestige and prize money.
**Expanding the Esports Landscape**
In addition to LGD's success, Honor of Kings is set to expand its esports footprint with the inauguration of a new Southeast Asia Championship. Since its global release, the mobile MOBA has shown significant potential to become a dominant force in competitive gaming, particularly following Riot Games' withdrawal from the APAC and SEA esports scenes last year.
With a strong following in China and growing interest worldwide, Honor of Kings is poised to fill the void left by Riot Games and become a leading title in the esports community across Southeast Asia and the Asia-Pacific region.
