Technology company Lenovo, through its gaming line Legion, participated in the recently concluded 2019 Electronic Sports and Gaming Summit (ESGS) at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City.

It was a three-day showcase of the latest Legion gaming hardware with Legion of Champions (LoC) action plus an appearance by Lenovo brand ambassador and celebrity Megan Young.

Legion hosted the LoC Philippines qualifying tournament finals with a prize pool of P100,000 at the Lenovo booth. The winning team will represent the country in the upcoming LoC Series IV to be held in Bangkok, Thailand in December.

LoC IV, Lenovo’s flagship Asia-Pacific esports competition in partnership with Intel, will bring together the top gamers from 12 markets in the region, with Australia and New Zealand joining for the first time, to face-off in the international Grand Finals showdown. The competition will introduce two new crowd-favorite games: Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO), as well as LoC’s first-ever all-female tournament, Legion of Valkyries (LoV).

“As the Philippines continues its growth path in gaming and esports, we at Lenovo, through the Legion brand, commit to support by continuously innovating and providing the tools that will help maximize Filipino gamers’ potential in this arena and allow them to compete alongside the best in the world,” said

“As part of our commitment of bringing the best Lenovo products to Filipinos, one of our major goals is to let people see and experience the savage and stylish Legion devices firsthand. Our goal at ESGS 2019 is to immerse the community further by providing in-depth engagement with our products, both personally and seeing them in action through our Legion of Champions IV qualifying tournament,” Ngan said.
