ECHO maintains main 5 squad for MPL PH Season 13
Through a Facebook post on 21st February, ECHO officially revealed its roster for the MPL PH season 13.
The main 5 lineup from last season- Sanford "Sanford" Vinuya, Karl "KarlTzy" Nepomuceno, Alston "Sanji" Pabico, Frederic "Bennyqt" Gonzales, Jaypee "Jaypee" Cruz remained for another run of redemption.
Three new additions to the squad include Justine "Zaida" Palma, Jhonville "Outplayed" Villar, who last played on the Mobile Legends Development League (MDL) team ECHO Proud alongside EJJJ, is debuting in the pro scene this season.
Harold "Tictac" Reyes shall be leading the team in the upcoming MPL PH Season 13 as the head coach.
ECHO had a rough journey after losing its chance to claim the title in the Mobile Legends Southeast Asia Cup (MSC) 2023. This led to the team revamping its roster with Yawi being swapped out by Jaypee in the Roam position.
While the squad remained formidable, it could not keep its momentum going, finishing in third place in Season 12 and a solid 2nd place finish in the MPL Invitational 2023.
ECHO’s journey to redemption shall be an interesting narrative to follow as the team strives to reclaim its former glory and prove itself as the powerhouse team it once was.
