Filipino Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) powerhouse 
Team Liquid PH have partnered with DITO Telecommunity, one of the Philippines' fastest-growing telecommunications providers, as part of the latter's 'GALING DITO movement.'
This comes after Team Liquid PH secured the championship of the MLBB Professional League (MPL) Philippines Season 15 in early June, and secured a slot in the upcoming MLBB Mid Season Cup (MSC) 2025.
The partnership covers Team Liquid PH's flagship MPL PH team, its MLBB Development League (MDL) team, and its Women's team. Team Liquid PH is the Filipino MLBB division of renown Dutch esports organisation Team Liquid, which entered the Philippines' MLBB scene in May 2024 with the acquisition of STUN.GG, the owners of Aura Esports and ECHO.
DITO will make use of its resources to power Team Liquid PH's campaign in MSC 2025, hosted as part of the Esports World Cup 2025 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia from 10 July to 2 August. DITO also called the partnership “a move that places Filipino gaming talent front and center on the global esports map” in a press release.
“This is more than just a team-up. It’s a shared mission: to empower the next generation of Filipino gamers, dreamers, and digital champions,” added DITO.
DITO's Galing DITO movement, a Tagalog phrase that means both “Talent Here” and “From Here," is a celebration of Filipino pride and excellence, according to the company. DITO added that Team Liquid's “global vision of inclusivity, passion, and individuality perfectly mirrors” the goals of their movement.
“This partnership with Team Liquid is a powerful statement of belief in Filipino excellence. As heralded by our GALING DITO platform, we’re investing in the dreams and talents of Filipino gamers who are ready to take on the global stage. Through this collaboration, we aim to
showcase our homegrown talents and to truly show the world what “GALING DITO” truly means,” said Jasper Evangelista, Brand Management Director of DITO Telecommunity.
Team Liquid PH alongside fellow Filipino representatives 
ONIC Philippines will be among the 23 teams competing in MSC 2025, where a whopping US$3 million prize pool will be up for grabs. MSC 2025 is split into three stages: the Wildcard Stage, Group Stage, and Knockout Stage.
The Wildcard Stage will be held from 10 to 13 July, with the Wildcard Group Stage hosted in Boulevard City's AMAZON Arena and the Wildcard Finals hosted in the STC Gaming Hall. The Group Stage will then follow from 23 to 27 July and will see competition return to the AMAZON Arena. Finally, MSC 2025 will conclude with the Knockout Stage from 30 July to 2 August in the STC TV Studio.
All of the teams in MSC 2025 are guaranteed to walk away with at least US$30,000 in winnings, though all competitors are surely eyeing the US$1 million grand prize out of the US$3 million total prize pool. Team Liquid PH and ONIC Philippines will notably be fighting to bring the Philippines its first MSC title since 2022, when the tournament was still known as the MLBB Southeast Asia Cup.
