Selangor Red Giants vs Aurora Gaming Clash: The Western trail is gone
An organization from Malaysia, Selangor Red Giants, was able to break the resistance of Aurora Gaming in a very difficult match with a score of 3:2. This was the last chance for Western esports at this event, because Aurora remained the only representative not from Southeast Asia. The Turks, however, fought like lions and even took the first card in just 18 minutes — it was powerful, wasn’t it?
However, the Malaysian MPL champions, who recently broke off their partnership with OG Esports, have switched on terminator mode.
-
Game Two: Selangor Red Giants turned over the gold deficit and tied the score in 24 minutes.
-
Bottom line: The fifth card put everything in its place — the Malaysians sent their opponents to the bottom grid.
Three people became the MVP in this confrontation at once — John “Innocent” Banal, Mark “Kramm” Rusiana and Muhammad “Yums” Suhairi. It’s actually an indicator of how cool their team chemistry is.
Aurora Philippines destroys the hopes of Alter Ego
At the same time, Aurora Philippines literally smeared the Indonesian Alter Ego team with a score of 3:1. The Indonesians, in truth, desperately tried to delay the series until the fifth map, but the Filipinos turned out to be stupidly stronger in the macro game. Along the way, it became clear that Southeast Asia’s dominance on the M7 was becoming absolute.
Unexpectedly? Probably not. It’s worth considering that Aurora Philippines is currently at the peak of its form.
In general, we are waiting for the final of the upper bracket between the two giants, and it will be legendary. It makes sense that now every click in the game costs millions, and tension in Bangkok can be cut with a knife. Let’s see who will eventually take the M7 crown — to be honest, betting against Selangor Red Giants is very risky right now.
Philippine Fury on M7: Aurora PH knocks Alter Ego into the Bottom Grid
A real drama unfolded at the M7 World Mobile Legends Championship — Aurora Philippines officially confirmed their status as favorites by cracking down on the Indonesians from Alter Ego. The guys from Aurora PH, by the way, not only won 3-1, but actually booked a place in the finals of the upper bracket, where Selangor Red Giants are already waiting for them.
In fact, it was a battle not just between two clubs, but between two of the strongest regions — and the Philippines was once again a cut above.
Aurora PH vs Alter Ego: The Swing that Ended in Triumph
The first map of the series, to be honest, looked like an easy walk for Alter Ego — the Indonesian side had full control of the map by the 15th minute. Despite a score of 10-15 frags, they had the initiative, and the Aurora Philippines base, apparently, was going to fall.
However, a single team mix — and everything turned upside down.
-
Comeback: Aurora PH seized the initiative and ended the game in the 18th minute.
-
Answer: In the second rink, Alter Ego, let’s put it this way, rehabilitated themselves quite cheerfully, destroying their opponents in 14 minutes with a score of 13:4.
-
Stability: The third game was dictated by the Filipinos — a calm and methodical victory in 17 minutes.
The final chord: the battle for gold and survival
The fourth game, in general, was the peak of adrenaline for the whole game day. It was a classic confrontation: the naked aggression of the Alter Ego against the endurance and macro-control of Aurora Philippines. The Indonesians, in truth, dominated the gold for almost the entire game.
Everything could have ended differently if Alter Ego had been able to put the squeeze on the opponent’s throne in the 14th minute. But Aurora, apparently, has nerves of steel — they found the perfect window to attack, won the decisive fight and sent their opponents to the lower bracket. It’s a shame for Indonesia, but it’s as fair as possible in the game.
What will happen next?
Now that the semifinals of the upper bracket are over, all attention is focused on the “meat grinder” in the lower bracket.
Schedule for tomorrow (January 22):
-
Battle of the Titans MPL: Indonesians from ONIC will compete with Team Liquid PH.
-
Our mark on the tournament: Team Spirit (CIS) will meet with Yangon Galacticos from Myanmar.
The winners of these pairs, by the way, will later meet with Aurora Gaming and the same Alter Egos. In general, the degree of tension is growing, and you can follow this madness live on TikTok and MLBB YouTube channels. Let’s see if Team Spirit can repeat the success of previous years — in fact, there are chances, but the competition is just fierce.
