00:00A big year is awaiting for our Esports National Team in Cebu
00:05due to the upcoming big competitions that they will host.
00:09For more details, here's teammate Karl Velasco.
00:15After being happy with the silver medal finish at the 2024 IESF World Esports Championship,
00:22the Philippine Esports Organization or PESO decided to continue the selection process
00:27that they are doing in recruiting players to represent the national team.
00:32This is in spite of their fans' passion, especially those who follow Mobile Legends,
00:38who automatically become PH representatives,
00:41the champions of the MPL Philippines that was held every year.
00:45According to PESO Executive Director Marlon Marcelo,
00:48they are still continuing the usual selection process
00:51where those who want to join the national team will go through the tryouts.
00:55In addition, this is a big help for the players who will go through the tryouts and represent the country.
01:02This will also give the players a chance to enter the C-Bowl.
01:09You still need to follow through with the tryouts.
01:13It does not mean that you are the best in the Philippines.
01:15You just have to get it.
01:17There is a different kind of dedication.
01:19There is a different kind of commitment.
01:22Why you need to tryout?
01:24Of course, those who are at the top, those who win different MPLs are already seeded.
01:32They are already given a slot.
01:34But everything is a process.
01:36You must be able to still join the qualifiers and do the tryouts.
01:41If you don't tryout, your slot will go to someone else.
01:45It's that simple.
01:46The match here in the C-Bowl is equal.
01:49There are a lot of athletes who want to be national athletes.
01:54You are no exception.
01:56According to Marcelo, the C-Bowl is currently being held.
02:00The upcoming competitions where our national team will compete in different game categories,
02:07such as Mobile Legends and Arena of Valor.
02:10We're making sure that our back-end teams are ready.
02:15We will be competing, of course, in different game categories.
02:19Specifically, MLBB women, men, and hopefully AOV men.
02:26So that's three.
02:27Of course, in the upcoming months, around Q1, we will be detailing the detailed plans.
02:35When are the tryouts?
02:37When is the selection?
02:39That's very important because we would want everyone to be aware of the schedule
02:44and we would remind them that this is a national selection process wherein
02:50you need to be at your best form to be able to tryout.
02:54Meanwhile, after the Olympic Esports Games in 2027,
02:59the C-Bowl is currently preparing two tournaments,
03:02the ESF World Championship and Southeast Asian Games,
03:06which will be held in Thailand in December.
03:08And of course, Corl Velasco for Atletang Pilipino and Bagong Pilipinas.
