AcadArena’s University Alliance Cup Valorant returns August 20

The Philippines’ premier collegiate Valorant tournament will return later this month with 12 collegiate teams vying for campus glory.

Presented by Asus ROG, co-organized with Globe Telecom, along with Official Gear partner Logitech G, the third season of University Alliance Cup (UAC) Valorant will have students battle it out for PHP 150,000 worth of in-game prizes, merchandise, cash, and grants.

The UAC is an Alliance exclusive league, which means only teams composed of players from the same campus (and a part of AcadArena’s Alliance program) can participate.

All players participating in the UAC are eligible to apply for the Globe AcadArena Merit Esports Scholarship (G.A.M.E.S).
