We catch up with the member of the latest addition and the first women team in MDL history, Bigetron Era, Fumi Eko.
We caught up with Fumi Eko, one of the members of Bigetron Era, the latest addition to MDL Season 10, to discuss their inclusion in the MDL Season 10, MWI, and women's MLBB in general, including her view of the team.
One of the recent surprises in Mobile Legends history is the inclusion of the women's team in MDL Season 10.
As the best women's team in the world right now, Bigetron Era earned the right to join the league after winning the WSL Season 8. Joining them to MDL Season 10 is the winner of the WSL Invitational 2024.
So, what does she think about their inclusion in the MDL Season 10, MWI, and MLBB's women's scene in general?
Please introduce yourself
Hello, my name is Venny; my IGN is Fumi Eko. I'm from Indonesia. My favourite game is Mobile Legends.
What is your next target after winning WSL Season 8 and joining MDL ID Season 10?
My next target is winning the MWI and then training harder to show my best performance in MDL ID Season 10.
Thoughts about MWI's prize pool?
I am pleased (with the prize pool) because the 500.000 USD prize pool is enormous. Furthermore, it takes place in Saudi Arabia, and Fumi wants to stroll there.
In your opinion, what does the women's scene lack at the moment?
In my opinion, what ladies at MLBB lack are the viewers. Some viewers still underestimate us, like "Who wants to watch women (MLBB)?" And then, there is a lack of promotion; however, MPL and MDL are eager to promote us now. For events-wise, Fumi thinks it's already enough. We got an MDL slot, MWI in Saudi Arabia, and the SEA Games. Fumi is happy with the number of events.
For four years, BTR Era has been the most dominant team in the women's MLBB scene. How do you stay dominant even after changing the roster?
(We) never felt star syndrome. We listen to each other, stay practising and don't get lazy.
Which team are you excited to face in MDL ID Season 10?
For me, I want to face every MDL team.
If you have any suggestions, How do you improve the women's MLBB scene?
Collaboration between the women's and men's (scene) is how to improve the women's scene.
