From complete beginner to ready for your first bet
Here's the straightforward path most new users take before placing their first bet in the E-Sports section at 1313:
The first step is identifying the game or tournament you're already familiar with. Malaysian users most commonly follow Mobile Legends, Dota 2, and PUBG Mobile. Knowing the key teams and players in your chosen title gives you an edge when making betting decisions.
Registration takes under 5 minutes. You'll need a valid email address, phone number, and some basic details. Once your account is verified, you'll have full access to all markets, including the E-Sports section.
Deposits can be made via Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, or local bank transfer. Funds are typically credited within minutes. You can then decide how much to allocate for your esports betting session. You can also download the 1313 app for a smoother experience on mobile.
Open the E-Sports section, check the list of available matches, review the odds for each team, and choose a bet type that suits you. Start with smaller bets to get comfortable with the interface before increasing your stake. Results will be displayed as soon as a match concludes.
Tournaments and markets most followed by Malaysian users
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang — a local favourite
MLBB is the most popular esports title in Malaysia and Southeast Asia. The M-Series — including the M5 and M6 World Championships — draws millions of fans across the region. Malaysian teams competing in the MPL Malaysia League are often a focal point for local fans when placing bets.
On the 1313 platform, MLBB markets typically cover match winner, map handicap, overall tournament winner, and occasionally special markets such as which team secures the first dragon kill. This gives users who closely follow the game meta plenty of options to work with.
Dota 2 — veteran players & international leagues
Dota 2 has a loyal following in Malaysia, especially among players who have been tracking the esports scene for years. The International is the most prestigious annual event in esports, and betting markets for TI stay active for weeks before the grand final. Users can place bets from the group stage all the way through to the grand final.
Available Dota 2 markets are typically more in-depth than other titles, with options including per-map betting (best-of-three or best-of-five), first blood, total kills, and overall series handicap.
PUBG Mobile — a rapidly growing community
PUBG Mobile continues to grow as an esports title, backed by an increasing number of global and regional tournament events. Malaysian players are active in the PMPL SEA league, and the betting community has grown in step with the tournament scene. Betting markets for PUBG Mobile typically cover overall team winner, per-match winner, and team kill statistics.
For detailed information on betting terms and applicable limits, you may refer to platform terms and conditions that clearly explains the rules governing each type of market.

Key terms in the world of esports betting
Understanding the terminology used in esports markets helps you make more informed decisions and avoid confusion when placing bets. Here are the six terms you'll encounter most often:
The most straightforward bet type — you simply pick which team will win the match. No handicap, no extra conditions. The team with the lower odds is considered the market favourite.
In a best-of-three or best-of-five series, map handicap gives one team a head start or deficit in map count. This balances the odds when one team is significantly stronger than the other.
A specialised market that asks which team or player secures the first kill of the match. Popular in Dota 2 and MLBB, the outcome is typically known within the opening minutes of play.
A market that asks whether the total kills in a match will go over or under a number set by the market. Useful for users who find it hard to pick a winner but can read the pace of the game.
Combine two or more bets into a single slip. Every selection must win for the bet to pay out, but the potential returns are significantly higher. Ideal for users who are confident across multiple matches in a single tournament night.
Bets placed while a match is in progress. Odds shift in real time based on how the game is unfolding. Making the most of this market requires quick reactions and a solid read on the flow of play.
Malaysia's ever-growing esports community
Esports in Malaysia is no longer just a hobby — it has grown into a full-fledged industry with professional tournaments, official teams, and a large fan community spanning the country from Kota Bharu to Selangor. This growth has brought rising interest in esports betting as a way for fans to feel more invested in the matches they follow.
The 1313 platform recognises the importance of this local context. Its E-Sports markets prioritise the titles with the largest following in Malaysia, with odds updated to reflect the latest developments in the regional esports community. This makes the betting experience more relevant and meaningful for local users compared to platforms that focus solely on global markets.
