Zeng Zehai aka Order, who received his first nomination for the prize, has been involved in the PUBG Mobile Esports scene since its debut. Order is known for his amazing fragging skills, decimating lobbies and overpowering his opponents.
He and his squad Nova Esports have been one of the most powerful forces in PUBG Mobile Esports history, winning two back-to-back world championships. They have also won several domestic championships, creating some of the strongest lobbies in PUBG Mobile.
Order was also the PMGC: 2021 MVP. He also had the most frags in the Group Stage of PMGC: 2022, when his team comfortably qualified for the Grand Finals. Order’s Nova Esports colleague and one of the most popular Esports players in PUBG Mobile, Paraboy, received the prize in the same category in 2021 for his incredible performance.
At the Esports Awards 2022, PUBG Mobile was also named Mobile Esports Game of the Year. The title was nominated in the same category the previous season, which Free Fire won.
Mohamed Light, Jonathan, Emaan, Cauan7, Sitetampo, Long, Lost, and GodCruz were all nominated, along with Order.
Mohamed Light, one of the best Clash Royale players in the world, fell short of the title this year. He was nominated in this category last year as well but couldn’t secure the award at the time either. Jonathan, the Indian BGMI player from GodLike Esports, was also nominated in this category at the Esports Awards 2022.
