ESEA opens registration for Regular and Women’s Cash Cup Asia

by Juandi

ESEA has introduced the regular bimonthly Cash Cups to the Asia region, with a US$1,000 prize pool up for contention. 

The ESEA 5v5 Cash Cups were initially launched in August 2020 for Europe and North America, which took place over a weekend. Alongside the announcement for Asia, ESEA Cash Cups will be held in Oceania, South Africa, and South America. 

The regular Cash Cups will run simultaneously with the Women’s Cash Cups, which was first introduced in January for the region. From a competitive standpoint, the introduction of the Regular and Women’s Cash Cups for Asia will contribute significantly towards the development of talent in the region while also giving exposure to competing teams.
