DAYS AFTER suffering a shock loss vs. Aurora Turkiye, ONIC Philippines lived to fight another day, crushing Area 77 with a convincing 2-0 sweep in the Group Stage of the MLBB Mid-Season Cup (MSC) 2025 at the Esports World Cup (EWC) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
ONIC Philippines showed why they are a force to be reckoned with in Game 1, even pulling off a rarely-seen Kagura pick in the hands of Frince “Super Frince” Ramirez.
Calm and steady, ONIC PH waited for the perfect moment to strike, securing the crucial 13-minute Lord objective to break through the defenses of Area 77.
ONIC PH continued their rampage in Game 2, fueled by a commanding performance from Cyric “K1NGKONG” Perez on Yi Sun Shin, overwhelming Area 77 with relentless aggression.
Duane “Kelra” Pillas sealed the deal with a triple kill on Irithel, dismantling Area 77’s final line of defense to complete the sweep.
The pressure remains high for ONIC PH to stay in contention as they’ll face Malaysia's HomeBois next in a do-or-die MSC 2025 Group Stage lower bracket semifinal match.
