Suara.com – The top party of the M5 World Championship will take place in the near future. Below is the M5 Mobile Legends bracket update.
For information, this week is the Knockout Stage or M5 Playoff round. Two big matches took place on Saturday (16/12/2023) where ONIC Esports managed to advance to the Grand Final.
Hedgehog Yellow advanced to the top match after crushing AP BREN with a score of 3 vs 0. This defeat made AP BREN drop to the Lower Bracket and had to face their compatriots, Blacklist International.
The Lower Bracket Final was like a repeat of the top match of MPL Philippines Season 12. AP BREN was still too strong so they were able to slaughter the Blacklist with a score of 3 vs 0. The Blacklist was officially eliminated in the Playoffs and won the title of 3rd Place in the M5 World Championship.
The M5 Mobile Legends Grand Final brings together ONIC vs AP BREN. Hedgehog Yellow is quite the favorite considering they beat AP BREN in the Upper Bracket Final. Indonesian MLBB eSports fans certainly hope that ONIC will emerge as champion.
How could it not be, the last three editions of the M series have always been won by the Philippines. Since EVOS won M1, no Indonesian team has taken home the M series trophy. Please note, ONIC actually almost lost after trailing 0 vs 13 in the first game against AP BREN.
Butsss et al managed to make a comeback in the late game by taking advantage of a counterattack. Kairi’s high damage and Kiboy’s accurate ultimate made ONIC turn things around. Hedgehog Yellow won the first game even though the kill score was far behind. ONIC was also able to secure the second game and dominate with fast play in the third game.
