Blacklist International makes quick work of ECHO in its final regular season match
In its final game of the MPL PH Season 10 regular season, Blacklist International displayed a commanding presence. With nine victories and five defeats, the codebreakers took first place overall and scored a total of 29 points.
ECHO had poor results in both the games of the series. The incredible amount of healing delivered by Johnmar "OhMyV33NUS" Villaluna's Estes prevented the foundation of Blacklist International from collapsing. This made the super team's battles much tougher, forcing it to withdraw and play defensively. Blacklist International kept its momentum, winning all the important objectives and took control of the map to win the series with a 2-0 scoreline in quite the dominant fashion.
