Jubilant Divine Esports has been seeded into Group 3 of the blue set of the BMPS Round 1. The team will have to produce consistent performances from the beginning as many experienced squads have been invited to the tournament.
Jubilant Divine Esports had recently participated in the BGIS 2024, where the squad demonstrated their promising performances in the initial stages. However, the team fell short by a slim margin in the third round of the event and unfortunately faced elimination from that event.
The organization hopes to deliver its best in BMPS 2024 and achieve a respectable spot.
