“We strongly believe in the potential of Brazilian players and it is essential to have partners who also believe in that by our side. 1xBet understands the importance of promoting the female scene and that is why we are very proud to call it our partner,” celebrates Roberta Coelho, CEO of MIBR.
The competition will feature up to 16 teams and will offer a cash prize of R$ 12,000 (US$ 2,150) for the winning team and R$ 6,000 (US$ 1,750) for the runner-up, in addition to skins and MIBR products. Registration is open from the Gamers Club website.
The 1xChallenge will take place next April 5th - 9th and will be broadcast on the Gamers Club twitch. The AMD caster will be responsible for the comments on the broadcast and will be accompanied by another presenter, who will be selected through WIBR, a platform that aims to include people who identify with the female gender in the video game scene.
“We are aware of the disparity that exists between female and male scenarios within the gaming universe. Therefore, actions that encourage the participation and development of female players are essential. We hope that our initiative with MIBR for the 1xChallenge will serve as an incentive for the competitive scene as a whole to create more spaces for women,” comments Alex Sommers, spokesperson for 1xBet.
In addition to the cash prizes, the winning team of the first 1XChallenge will have the chance to face the MIBR women's CS:GO team in a showmatch, which will be broadcast by Gamers Club.
