The 2024 MPL Philippines Season is the seventh year of professional gameplay ^[1] and the second year of development talent gameplay ^[2] for the country. MPL Philippines is a professional esports league for the MOBA game Mobile Legends: Bang Bang . The season will be divided into two splits: Season 13 is accompanied by MDL Philippines Season 3, and Season 14, accompanying it will be MDL Season 4. Season 13 will begin by March 15 and conclude the season with the Grand Finals match on May 26, 2024. Meanwhile, Season 14 will likely begin by August and end by November.

MDL Philippines was established as the second development league in Southeast Asia behind MDL Indonesia in 2023 and its first two seasons were played during the same year. ^[3] Season 13 is the ongoing qualifying tournament for Philippine teams to the 2024 Mid-Season Cup in Riyadh. ^[4] Season 14 on the other hand will be the qualifying tournament for Philippine teams to the MLBB M6 World Championships in Kuala Lumpur. ^[5] Only the champions and the runner-up teams will be qualifying for both international tournaments.

Season 13 is the ongoing season for MPL Philippines. It's succeeding a season that culminated the championship of AP Bren for the second time in league history, and the second time in world history after winning the M5 World championship title on home soil against ONIC Esports. ^[6] Furthermore, the Mid-Season Cup will be hosted for the first time outside of Southeast Asia and the first tournament bearing the rebranded name “Mid-Season Cup”. The tournament was formerly known as the “Southeast Asia Cup”. ^[7]

Season 14 will be the succeeding season following the Mid Season Cup. The Season 14 champions will become one of two-Filipino teams representing the country and the league in the M6 World Championships in Kuala Lumpur. Currently, three Filipino teams have consecutively-won the last four world championship series: Blacklist International (M3), ^[8] ECHO Philippines (M4), ^[9] and AP Bren (M2 and M5). ^[10]

Occurring in the same year was the international multi-game tournament Games of the Future 2024 which was held in Kazan, Russia. ^[11] AP Bren and Blacklist International were invited to participate alongside teams that have competed during the M5 World Championships and teams that were directly invited by organizers.

Format

MPL Philippines’ Seasons are split into two: The Regular Season and the Playoffs. The Regular Season consists of fourteen games. Each team competing will be playing a double-round robin tournament format, facing each other twice in the span of six to eight weeks. Only the top six teams will advance to the playoffs and the remaining two will be eliminated. Furthermore, the Regular Season instituted a new pointing system wherein:

• The team who won a 2-0 series will receive 3 points;
• The team who won a 2-1 series will receive 3 points;
• The team who lost a 2-1 series will receive 1 point;
• The team who lost a 2-0 series will receive 0 points.

Playoff format

• The Top 6 teams from the Regular Season table will advance to the playoff round. The bottom 2 will be eliminated from contention.
• Teams Seeded 5 and 6 will be facing each other for a Best of 5 series to advance to the second round in a modified King of the Hill Tournament format.
• The winning team from Match 1 will advance to face Seed 4 and play a Best of 5 series to advance to the Upper Bracket Semifinals.
• Seed 3 will be matching up with Seed 2 in the playoffs, making Seed 3 a qualifying team in the semifinals.
• All teams will be playing a Best of 5 series except for the Grand Finals which will be a Best of 7.

Teams

With the annual MSC 2024 tournament being held in Saudi Arabia, the tournament became the new sight for opportunities for international organization–a tournament with a $3,000,000 prize pool. International organizations have been partnering with Filipino organizations in order to fund and subsequently target the winning teams that can compete in MSC 2024.

On 19 May 2024, AP Bren announced its partnership with MPL MENA Organization Team Falcons for the upcoming season-ending playoffs. ^[39] A day later, ONIC Philippines announced their own partnership with the European-based organization Fnatic, ^[40] and a day later, ECHO Philippines announced their own partnership for the upcoming playoffs with Team Liquid. Liquid however, has announced their own acquisition of the AURA Esports franchise, thereby rebranding the team from ECHO/AURA to Team Liquid. ^[41]

Playoffs

AP Bren was the first team to qualify for the Playoffs during their Week 5, 2-0 sweep over TNC Pro Team which propelled them to an 8-1 record, seeding ONIC Philippines to Number 2 following their loss to RSG Philippines during Day 1 of Week 5. Moreover, ONIC Philippines was the next team to qualify for the playoffs after winning over Smart Omega in Week 5 Day 2.

After a 2-0 victory over ONIC Philippines in Week 6, Minana EVOS qualified for the playoffs as the potential fifth seed for the first time since Season 9 when they were still branded as "Nexplay EVOS". This is the first playoffs for Minana EVOS since their rebrand. ^[42]

TNC Pro Team misses the playoffs for the fourth-consecutive season after losing 2-0 to their Week 6 match. TNC Pro Team's last playoff appearance was their third-place finish during MPL Philippines Season 9. ^[43]

Blacklist International secures the final playoff spot after winning one match against ECHO Philippines to tie the game series 1-1. That gave Blacklist International enough games to qualify for the MPL Philippines Season 13 playoffs, thereby eliminating Smart Omega from playoff contention.

After a 2-1 victory over ECHO Philippines, AP Bren finishes the regular season with an 11-3 record and 35 points, giving them the first seed in the playoffs. ECHO Philippines remained the second seed because of their total number of regular season points and due to the promptly defeat of RSG Philippines to Blacklist International which only gave RSG an additional 1 point to secure the third seed.

Playoffs

Similar to the former playoff tournament of MPL Philippines prior to Season 13, MDL Philippines Season 3 will transition from a double-elimination bracket to a single-elimination bracket of the Top 6 teams. Teams seeded third to sixth will play in the Quarterfinals/Knockout Round and will advance to face the first and second seed in the Semifinals. All games apart from the Grand Finals will be played in a Best of 3. The Finals will be played as a Best of 5.

MDL Philippines Season 3's playoffs was held at the Shooting Gallery Studios where MPL Philippines' regular season had been hosted prior to the playoff preparation break.

Both Blacklist Academy / Blacklist Rough World Era and ECHO Proud advances to the Semifinals to face off the two top seeds in MDL Philippines, RRQ Kaito and Omega. ^[45] RRQ Kaito defeated Blacklist Academy in the Semifinals of the playoffs, qualifying the team to its first Grand Finals appearance. Meanwhile, ECHO Proud defeated Omega Neos 2-0 in the Semifinals on the same day, thereby qualifying to the Grand Finals for the third consecutive season in a row in a potential three-peat scenario. They will be facing RRQ Kaito in the Grand Finals.

RRQ Kaito wins the MDL Philippines Season 3 Grand Finals, defeating the two-time defending champions ECHO Proud 3-2 in the series. RRQ is the first organization to win an international league's title in the Philippines as RRQ Kaito is a team under the RRQ organization, an Indonesian-based organization.

Controversies

Controversial comment

Season 13 was known for having a controversial occurrence during the Third Week of Professional Play when Ian "Fywdchickn" Hohl of Gaimin Gladiators commented in a stream of his thoughts of MPL Philippines Season 13. Initially, Hohl critiqued MPL Philippines and MPL Indonesia together, citing that the production of MPL Indonesia was relatively better than that of MPL Philippines but quickly reiterated that the Philippines' gameplay is substantially better. ^[46] During the first day of the third week, Hohl's image alongside the exact comment he made was posted during the livestream which the casters have quoted "MPL Philippines is boring".

Continuous backlash was thrown at Hohl for his comments with even players being asked to comment regarding the issue which included David "FlapTzy" Canon and King "K1NGKONG" Perez of AP Bren and ONIC Philippines to name a few, respectively. In retaliation, Hohl made a public response regarding the matter on his personal YouTube channel which he criticized MPL Philippines' production for manipulating its fans. ^[47]

In a podcast episode from Mara "Mara" Aquino–one of the hosts whom quoted the comment made by Hohl, discussed it alongside David "Assassin Dave" Mao–host-turned head coach in North America, regarding the quote. ^[48] Hohl personally apologized to Aquino (whom she thanked for posting his response video) following the backlash she received upon the video's posting, to which Aquino affirmed Hohl that it was okay. He also gave thanks to Johnmar "OhMyV33Nus" Villaluna who made a different video citing his comments regarding the issue.

Game Fixing Controversy

On 25 April 2024, Francis "Duckeyyy" Glindro posted on his official Facebook Page a screenshot of former University of Santo Tomas Teletigers Esports Club Head Coach Jigen Paul "Jigen Paul" Masangkay's profile alongside a messenger conversation allegedly working a deal with amateur players to game fix certain matches. ^[49] The conversation asked an unidentified individual if he/she is willing to pay a ₱100,000 fee (US$1,734.97) to game fix three MPL or MDL Philippines matches. Following the allegations, all MPL organizations and amateur teams have released statements regarding the matter and have launched independent investigations regarding the allegations.

At 9:55 PM of the same day, TNCZ4, the MDL Team affiliated to TNC Pro Team and Z4 Esports have suspended Jhonjie Paul "Jiee" Dela Rosa following match-making allegations surfaced online with tagged screenshots of his conversations with an unidentified individual. Furthermore, Z4 Esports' co-founded JC "King Cosmos" Garcia had inquired a league-wide investigation of the matter. ^[50]

On 26 April, RSG Philippines released a statement that two amateur players from their affiliated MDL team, RSG-El Ganador Esports in Raven "Aeris" Arellano and Christian John "Nyija" Calantoc were guilty of the match-making allegations and have terminated their rookie contracts following the ordeal. ^[51]
