Philippine esports team Bren Esports is capping their competitive year with their biggest prize yet, the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang World Championship, after beating a tough Myanmar team, the Burmese Ghouls, 4-3 in the grand finals.
With the win, Bren Esports, composed of Angelo Kyle "Pheww" Arcangel, Karl Gabriel "Karltzy" Nepomuceno, David Charles "Flaptzy" Canon, Allan Sancio "Lusty" Castromayor, and Carlito "Ribo" Jr., will take home U.S. $140,000 (roughly P6 million).
"'Yong ibig sabihin sa akin ng pagkanalo ng M2 [ay] sobrang laki kasi simula nang pagpasok ko ng pro scene gusto ko na maging pinakamagaling sa buong mundo." Nepomuceno told media after their win.
Bren Esports looked comfortable in the grand finals taking a 2-0 win against their Burmese opponents, even during the 13-minute-long game two, where they were in control the whole match.
Burmese Ghouls would show why they were the upper bracket champions taking three straight games forcing the Pinoys' back against the wall.
"'Yong pinakamahirap na [game sa] series namin is game three kasi tinry namin na magbigay ng heroes, tapos ayun, nalugi kami," Castromayor said during the post-match interview.
The Burmese squad looked poised in game seven, taking an early lead against Bren. A 12-minute team fight on the bottom Lord Pit saw Bren Esports wipe the Burmese Ghouls' backline, leading to a free Lord. Sealing the deal was Karltzy Claude cleaning up the Burmese high ground defense. He would end the game with a 10/1/6 K/DA. He was later crowned as Series MVP.
The Pinoys took the long road to championships after falling to the lower bracket against the Burmese Ghouls. The group then needed to go through Indonesian Squads Alter Ego Esports and tournament favorites MPL-Indonesia champions RRQ Hoshi in the lower-bracket finals.
"'Yong unang talo namin sa Burmese Ghouls tanggap na naming lahat na naging kampante kami doon kaya na-punish kami doon. Tapos nung natalo nila 'yong [RRQ Hoshi], nirespeto na namin sila na sobrang lakas nila, kaya pinaghandaan na namin nung grand finals," said Arcangel.
