The royal family has made a statement!
Fnatic ONIC PH has firmly established themselves at the apex of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang esports with an impressive 4-1 win against Indonesia’s Team Liquid ID at the M6 World Championship grand finale.
The victory sees FNOP securing the US$1,000,000 jackpot, as well as claiming the fifth M-Series title for the Philippines—further reinforcing the region’s preeminence in the MLBB esports scene.
In addition to their championship win, they have the prestigious privilege of selecting a hero to receive the coveted M6 Champion skin—a symbolic accolade that marks their ascendance to prominence.
Finals Most Valuable Player, Duane “Kelra” Pillas, was also offered the chance to handpick a hero to receive the FMVP skin.
FNOP’s selected heroes for the M6 Champion skin
Duane “Kelra” Pillas, renowned gold laner, revealed the team’s initial choices to be Luo Yi or Joy. He gave credit to these two heroes for their instrumental roles during the knockout stages of the tournament.
However, Coach Tony “Ynot” Serendrin advised caution and stated that no decisions have been made final. “Let’s not make any decisions in haste,” he remarked.
Regardless, it is undeniable that both Luo Yi and Joy were pivotal to FNOP’s successful championship run.
Luo Yi’s remarkable map control and presence, led by Monster Mage Frince “Super Frince” Ramirez, was a key factor in FNOP’s victories in the first and second games of the grand final, with Luo Yi’s impeccable map control.
On the other hand, Joy emerged as FNOP’s wildcard during the knockout phase, appearing in pivotal games, including their upper-bracket matches against Team Falcons and Selangor Red Giants.
Kelra chose this hero for the M6 FMVP skin
Kelra, who bagged the finals MVP title, also announced his selection for the exclusive FMVP skin. Without any second thoughts, he stated, “For the M6 FMVP skin, I like Beatrix.”
The marksman hero has been Kelra’s favoured choice for a while now. Despite not being deployed in the grand final, his impressive performances while wielding the marksman in the upper-bracket matches demonstrated her potential to be a game-changer.
Also referred to as the “Gold Standard,” Kelra’s remarkable precision and commanding playstyle in high-stakes moments further sealed his reputation as arguably the best Beatrix player worldwide.
This championship title is a landmark achievement for Fnatic ONIC PH, as they clinch their maiden world championship under the Fnatic banner.
The opportunity to cement their triumph with the M6 Champion skin and FMVP skin ensures that their legacy will be permanently inscribed in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang lore.
