In a historic moment for women's esports, Team Vitality's women's team claimed victory at the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Women's Invitational during the 2025 Esports World Cup (EWC). The team, led by MVP Cinny Siswanto, defeated Gaimin Gladiators with a dominating 4-0 sweep, securing a perfect record and a $150,000 prize.
The 2025 EWC, held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was the largest in its history, featuring 16 teams and qualifying stages in 57 regions worldwide. The event showcased the growing trend of gender equality and equal representation in the esports industry, with strong performances from women's teams in various titles.
Saudi Arabia itself fielded several national teams, including all-female squads, marking a significant step towards equal representation and talent support. Other notable achievements at the EWC included Terror Queens placing 3rd in the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Women's Invitational.
The success of Team Vitality's women's team marked the first time an international women's Mobile Legends: Bang Bang tournament had been won with a perfect record. The victory further solidified the position of women's esports as a legitimate discipline, demonstrating that it is an open and competitive environment that values skill, strategy, and team play.
Elsewhere, Shopify Rebellion, a women's Valorant team, demonstrated high-level gameplay and strategic preparation in the VCT NA Challengers. Meanwhile, G2 Esports' all-female League of Legends team, G2 Hel, advanced to the Spanish Liga Nexo, becoming the first women's team to reach the second level of the European LoL league.

The achievements of these women's teams at the EWC highlight the potential for women's teams to compete at the highest levels in various esports titles. Broad team support is crucial in establishing a stable ecosystem for women's esports, inspiring the next generation of young gamers.
In conclusion, the 2025 EWC served as a platform for recognising new stars, strengthening international cooperation, and promoting esports as a legitimate discipline.
