EVOS Esports (briefly known as Zero Latitude) is a professional esports organisation based in Jakarta, Indonesia. It currently has competitive teams in Apex Legends, Free Fire, and Mobile Legends: Bang Bang.[1][2]

The organisation previously had a League of Legends team competing in the Vietnam Championship Series (VCS), the highest level of competitive League of Legends in the country. The team became VCS champions (a title held only by the GIGABYTE Marines at the time) on 7 April 2018, a feat accomplished during their first appearance in the league. This qualified them for the 2018 Mid-Season Invitational (MSI), where they performed above expectations against other more well-known international teams.[3]

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang

[edit]

Starting in MPL Indonesia

[edit]

Evos Esports was created in September 2016 starting with their Dota division; the team began to form another division on other games such as Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. The team did well on the small tournaments and after their consecutive losses, they started to re-organize. From there, they started to get traction on the tournaments after finishing 2nd place in the first MPL and the succeeding season. In the next season, the team failed to qualify in play-offs after their 8th position ranking. Consequently, the team had to re-organize once again recruiting seasoned veterans of MPL such as Yurino "Donkey" Angkawidjaja and also new players Ihsan "Luminaire" Kusudana and Muhammad "Wannn" Ridwan. From the newly organized team, EVOS finished top seed on the Regular season of MPL Season 4 and defeated the RRQ on the grand finals lifting their first championship. EVOS was able to continue the momentum resulting in the first M1 World Title in 2019 on Kuala Lumpur.[4]

Entering the MPL Malaysia and Singapore Scene

[edit]

With the success of EVOS Legends in MPL Indonesia Season 1, EVOS Esports opted to enter the Malaysian and Singaporean scene. They were met with similar success, finishing 2nd on MPL MY/SG Season 2 and 3, before winning the tournament in Season 4.

Expanding to MPL Philippines

[edit]

The EVOS organization tried to enter in the Philippine scene by acquiring the MPL Philippines season 2 team SxC Imbalance, they were able to reach the playoffs, however, due to alleged corruption inside the Philippine franchise organization, the team departures on MPL-PH. The remaining players of former EVOS Philippines were acquired by Tier One Entertainment team Blacklist International.[5] In June 2021, EVOS Esports and Nexplay Esports announced a new collaboration to form Nexplay EVOS, a competitive esports team for Mobile Legends MPL PH Season 8 tournament.[6][7]

EVOS Esports' League of Legends team competes in the Vietnam Championship Series (VCS), the highest level of competitive League of Legends in Vietnam.[10] In the VCS 2018 Spring Split, EVOS finished first in the regular season, ending with a 12–2 record.[citation needed] Their placement in the regular season secured EVOS a finals bye in playoffs, where they beat GIGABYTE Marines 3–2,[citation needed] qualifying them for the 2018 Mid-Season Invitational (MSI).
