SEA Games Esports Day 5: Philippines lead women’s Wild Rift
The fifth day of the 2022 Hanoi Southeast Asia Games esports event on Tuesday (17 May) saw the Women’s League of Legends: Wild Rift competition kick off while the PUBG Mobile individual tournament concluded, with Vietnam bagging another gold medal.
Women’s League of Legends: Wild Rift
Unlike Men’s Wild Rift, the Women’s Wild Rift group stage only took one day to complete.
Five teams from Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, the Philippines, and Laos battled it out in a total of 10 matches to determine which four teams will advance to the playoffs.
To that end, the Philippines' women's Wild Rift team dominated the competition, beating Thailand, Singapore, Laos, and Vietnam to earn a 4-0 score and the first seed out of the group stage.
Vietnam finished in second place with a 3-1 tally after winning against Laos, Thailand, and Singapore. Singapore sits at third place with a 2-2 score with victories over Thailand and Laos.
Thailand barely qualified for the playoffs off a 1-3 record with their sole victory being over Laos, who lost all their games and were eliminated.
Women’s League of Legends: Wild Rift group stage standings:
Philippines (4-0)
Vietnam (3-1)
Singapore (2-2)
Thailand (1-3)
Laos (0-4)
The Women's Wild Rift playoffs will see the Philippines take on Thailand while Vietnam will face Singapore.
The winners of those matches will advance to the gold medal match while the losers will have one more showdown for the bronze medal.
