Although we do not yet know when the next season of MPL PH is set to begin, teams have begun to make some announcements as they prepare to fight to be the champions of the region once again. Blacklist International have quickly risen to dominate both the Philippine’s and the world of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, becoming the champions of their region MPL tournament twice in 2021, finishing second at MSC, and capping the year with a fantastic win at M3. While the team have earned a fantastic break before MPL Season 9, a few players have decided to extend their break as they take a break for the coming season.
Announced via the teams’ social media platforms, Blacklist will be going into MPL PH Season 9 without their star duo of OhMyV33nus and Wise. The dynamic duo has decided to take a short break from the competitive side of MLBB, meaning that MPL PH Season 9 will see a few changes in the Blacklist lineup. According to the post made via Twitter, the players are definitely excited to have some time for themselves personally, while also looking forward to spending time with their families too.
For now, there have been no announcements made from Blacklist International about possible replacements for the duo, and while Eson and Dex star are available too, the team will certainly be making some new additions in the coming weeks. It will be interesting to see just how Blacklist will perform without the duo in the coming season – and if a new champion will arise in MPL PH.
