The Asia Pacific Predator League 2026 wrapped up in New Delhi with powerful wins, emotional matches, and inspiring stories that show why esports continues to grow across the region—and why many Filipino families now follow it as part of everyday life.
From 24 VALORANT and Dota 2 teams representing 14 Asia-Pacific territories, only two emerged as champions. Vietnam’s Fancy United surprised fans by defeating crowd favorite BOOM Esports, taking home the Predator Shield, USD 65,000, and the VALORANT championship. Young standout Hoàng “Twilight” Minh Dũng dominated the series with 40 kills, earning tournament MVP honors and an additional USD 10,000—proof that discipline, practice, and focus still matter, even in the AI era.
In Dota 2, Myth Avenue Gaming successfully defended their Predator Shield against Indonesia’s REKONIX. The grand finals went the distance, ending in a thrilling 41-minute Game 3 that showcased teamwork and strategy at its finest. Myth Avenue Gaming secured another USD 65,000 prize, with offlaner “egxrdemxn” named MVP after a dominant performance that earned him USD 10,000.
For Filipino viewers—especially moms watching their kids explore gaming—there was plenty to cheer for. Xipto Esports, led by veteran Emmanuel “Emman” Morales, reached the VALORANT semifinals and finished in the Top 4, outperforming local rivals Oasis Gaming. Their run showed how teamwork, mentorship, and perseverance can push young players to new heights.
Meanwhile, InterActive Philippines impressed in Dota 2 despite being a late tournament call-up. They fought their way through tough matches, eventually falling short against REKONIX in a hard-fought series. Still, their performance reflected a familiar Filipino trait many moms recognize—resilience, even when circumstances are not ideal.
At the tournament’s close, organizers announced that the Asia Pacific Predator League 2027 will be held in Vietnam, continuing its mission of celebrating regional talent, discipline, and sportsmanship in esports.
