Team Liquid, SRG OG advance to MSC 2025 grand final in Riyadh
Team Liquid Philippines and Selangor Red Giants OG Esports will meet in the grand finals of the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid-Season Cup 2025 after emerging victorious in contrasting semifinal series on Friday at the Amazon Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, at the 2025 Esports World Cup.
Karl “KarlTzy” Nepomuceno spearheaded Team Liquid PH’s 3-1 triumph over ONIC Esports Indonesia, putting the Filipino powerhouse one step closer to completing its dream run.
Entering the match as -222.22 favorites with the top esports betting sites, Team Liquid justified the odds, with KarlTzy and Kiel “Oheb” Soriano combining for clean KDA lines and decisive mid-game pushes in Games 1 and 2.
ONIC ID forced a fourth game behind an Estes draft, but Team Liquid closed out in 14 minutes to secure their first MSC grand final berth.
Earlier, defending champions SRG OG upset ONIC Philippines 3-2 in a tense five-game series. SRG entered as +135 underdogs but showed championship poise, with captain Mark “Kramm” Rusiana’s Ruby control and John “Innocent” Banal’s Bruno carry anchoring crucial wins in Games 3 and 5.
Despite Duane “Kelra” Pillas’ heroics and King “K1NGKONG” Perez’s aggressive plays, ONIC PH could not overcome SRG’s disciplined rotations and objective control.
The results set up a best-of-seven finale between Team Liquid PH and SRG OG on Saturday, with $1,000,000 on the line for the champions.
For KarlTzy, it’s a chance to claim the only major trophy missing from his storied career, while SRG OG aims to secure back-to-back MSC titles and cement their dominance on the global Mobile Legends stage.
Meanwhile, ONIC PH and ONIC ID will face off in the bronze medal match, a sibling rivalry that promises fireworks as both squads aim to finish on a high.
With MSC 2025 already breaking 3 million peak viewers earlier in the Knockout Stage, the tournament’s finale weekend is set to be one of the most-watched in Mobile Legends history.
