Since the beginning of the year, Hooters, a restaurant chain established in Florida in 1983, had the idea of delving into the world of esports. To achieve this, they sought out the best team in organization, production, and esports broadcasting in Mexico and Latin America, Liga Ace Esports.
In this way, more than 110 players, on average, have participated in the three competitions organized so far. Each player aims to prove themselves as the best in this well-known video game and to secure a share of the 10,000 pesos in prizes distributed in each edition of this tournament.
