Playing in Amihan together with them was never just about the Money, Contract, or any piece of paper that may taint our relationship. It was about the LOVE, BONDING, TRANSPARENCY to the players of the organization, and COMPETITION,” stated Amihan Esports.

The organization added that it’s releasing the team because it doesn’t want to restrict the players’ growth.

We might not be together on your journey to the world championship and MPL but always bring that Amihan Blood in you. We set you free because nobody deserves to be held back,” Amihan Esports stated.

The organization ended its post by saying that it is ending its esports journey. The Brand Director of Amihan Esports, Gary Koh, also made a comment in the post, saying that one day the organization will return but for now, it has to let its players go.
