The Mercedes-Benz MVP award will return with ESL One Mumbai 2019, rewarding the best player of the tournament with a brand new Mercedes.
The sponsorship will once again see the Mercedes-Benz brand prominent at the event, but more notable is the prize of a brand new car for the MVP of the tournament. The MVP will be determined by a fan vote which will be open throughout the tournament.
Mercedes-Benz partnered with ESL, earlier in 2017 for a number of their future tournaments in different countries, starting with ESL One: Hamburg 2017. Since then 5 Mercedes Benz MVPs have been crowned in 5 different ESL One tournaments.
While Virtus.Pro took home three Mercedes Benz cars in a row last season, Team Secret has taken over the mantle to win two Mercedes this season. It’ll be interesting to see who can bring home the Mercedes Benz in ESL One: Mumbai.
The voting process has already kicked off. Fans can vote for their favourite player below.
Voting is now OPEN for the #MBmvp! Who will be our MVP for #ESLOne Mumbai and go home with a @MercedesBenz?https://t.co/m4GYzz6SwI

The tournament is already underway, with the Group Stages coming to a close today.
Over the rest of the week, the eight teams will be whittled down to just one champion, with that winning team taking home the lion’s share of the $300,000 prizepool and in all likelihood, one of their players will also win the Mercedes Benz and be crowned as the Maharaja of ESL One Mumbai.
