ONLINE OKBET : MPL, In case you missed it, the M3 winners are back in the grand finals and will be traveling to Jakarta, Indonesia to compete in M4! How will they play against Echo Philippines, the team that stands between them and a third championship? They’ve already met once in the playoffs, with “WISE” sweeping a 3-0 shutout over Echo thanks to his one-of-a-kind fredrinn and guinivere selection. Will Echo Philippines win the MPL title and atone for their previous loss? or Can Blacklist capitalize on this momentum and go undefeated in the postseason?
GAME 1
To kick off the series, WISE has chosen to use another unconventional strategy. A Valentina selection to deal with Yawi’s amazing Kadita, an unexpected counter for Akai given that Wise has stolen the hurricane dance several times to secure objectives across the board, and a critical team fight starter on Blacklist’s side. Blacklist International perfectly countered kadita by selecting three purify spells, and even Wise, who possesses a vengeance spell, has a purify in the form of hurricane dance. Wise has a perfect 100 IQ play, draft, and performance.
OhmyV33NUS was a major factor in the team’s success because to her ability to initiate, defend, and rescue his teammates from perilous circumstances while also using her signature flicker + noumenon blast and flicker + charge stun. V33WISE clearly shown why they are considered to be MPL legends. Briefly summarizing the game, Blacklist didn’t let echo rest, taking all of the available turtles, lords, and towers to win 1-0.
GAME 2
To counter Echo’s estes and faramis ube strat in game two, blacklist has selected valir, revealing the full extent of Echo’s decoding of blacklist’s approach. Echo used Valir’s first talent to stop Hadji from clearing lanes and to make it difficult for Blacklist to gather, putting them in risk from Yawi’s fireballs. Hadji is widely considered to have one of the best pokes in Mobile Legends, and Valir’s first skill resets whenever you strike an opponent.
The remainder of Echo was thus able to farm without hindrance and quickly secure the game’s early objectives. If Akai were to try to start a teamfight, Valir’s blazing torrent would be an effective answer. The talent will just push him back. Since Blacklist International went for a utility tank, a mage, and a jungler, Uranus is also a solid selection. Overall, this was a fantastic draft for Echo Philippines, with strong early-game to late-game rotation.
GAME 3
With the jawhead tank, grock exp, and akai jungle as their three front-line heroes to dominate the team fight, Echo once more took the lead. With valentina and melissa in the back, you would expect them to prioritize team fights and pick offs, which they did because they blocked Oheb’s access to the beatrix and melissa po lane. The lack of gold will ultimately lead them to collapse.
Blacklist eventually leveled the gold advantage and learned how to counter-initiate despite a difficult beginning. However, Blacklist was compelled to remain in their fortress since Echo’s damage and endurance were too great for them. Let’s also give thanks to Jawhead Yawi for eliminating smart and oheb, two of Blacklist’s most important sustain and damage players, with a flicker + eject combination. Bennyqt was dealt with by Edward from behind after Sanford eliminated the last defender on the blacklist, enabling the grock to continue punching the base until they had won. Good job, Echo Philippines!
GAME 4
The five members of blacklist worked well together, and the result was a near-perfect performance. Complete with burst, sustain, crowd control, and damage per second, this draft has it all. Since Oheb was usually the one to throw in the final blow on Uranus, this is Blacklist International’s retort to Echo’s planet of choice. Among the few marksmen with a stun, Brody is essential to this draft as he can both blast down Uranus and prevent him from fleeing. In this rematch, Yawi’s jawhead is rendered useless by Blacklist’s ability to kite it around the arena and stun and damage him while he does so.
Almost often, Wise was successful in inflicting Retribution onto the Lord and turtle. Blacklist’s acquisition of the lord has granted them freedom of movement around the globe. Bennyqt deserves praise for his claude, but it wasn’t enough since Hadji’s faramis countered his scorching duet at the cult’s altar.
Echo was able to eliminate a few Blacklist players, but it was to no effect; every member of Blacklist played a significant role in the game, and losing even one player in a team battle did not prevent Blacklist from continuing the fight and maybe winning. Edward, or “Agent 0,” was able to pull off a rat plan once again as he segwayed into Echo’s base many times, killing turrets each time to conclude the game and give them a 2-0 series lead. As of this moment, the score is 2-2.
GAME 5
Nothing has changed since the first draft. Hadji’s pharsa, along with Wise’s pocket pick valentina and V33’s trademark hero, Lolita, were recovered by Blacklist International. Blacklist’s ability to clearly rotate between the lanes and the jungle of Echo to secure hero kills and gain an early gold advantage is indicative of their renewed dominance. Wise took part in the team battles as well, and he is undeniably the blacklist’s beating heart given that he captured all of the turtles.
By stealing the cult’s altar once again, Valentina gave the blacklist the strength to survive Echo’s attack. OhMyV33NUS was saved on many times by Wise using the cult’s altar; this allowed them to outlast Echo despite their possession of faramis. Hadji was able to enjoy a near-perfect game (8-1-9) thanks to the help of V33WISE. Finally, Edward played a flawless game of Uranus, ensuring victory by preventing any fatalities and taking Blacklist’s full damage while dishing out his own.
GAME 6
With a victory, Blacklist International would become the third team in MPL-PH history to win three titles. They backed a choice from Wise’s pocket: Guinevere. There are no taken turtles or rulers in this game; it is really one of a kind. For over 18 minutes, Edward and Sanford cut lanes, Oheb and Bennyqt cleared waves, and the jungle creeps were farmed as the turtle and lord danced. To prevent any ganks on Hadji and Oheb, V33NUS is monitoring the bushes.
When OhMyV33NUS’ lolita’s shield blocked all of the damage from the blazing duet and hit a crucial 3-Man set for Blacklist International’s initiation play, the tide turned in Blacklist International’s favor. The four members of Blacklist dealt the damage necessary to kill three members of Echo Philippines. Blacklist International, knowing that Yawi and Sanford couldn’t defend their base with 40 seconds remaining, chose not to seize the lord and instead ended the game, finishing in second place for MPL-PH S10.
