MDL Philippines Season 4
During the second split MDL Philippines Season 4, the league announced its first local qualifying tournaments for local teams in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.[24] This is the first open-qualifier tournament by the MPL-MDL franchise in the Philippines since MPL Philippines Season 7 prior to their transition to a franchise-base system for the professional league. MDL Philippines Season 4 will be travelling across the country for it to qualify deserving teams matching up against all previously-competing teams in Season 3 which includes the defending champions RRQ Kaito.[25][26]
Unlike the previous season, MDL Philippines Season 4 had twelve teams competing in the regular season: 8 franchise teams, 1 international independent team, 1 invited team, and 2 regional qualifier teams. All teams played each other once in a Best of 3 series.
Season 13 was known for having a controversial occurrence during the Third Week of Professional Play when Ian "Fywdchickn" Hohl of Gaimin Gladiators commented in a stream of his thoughts of MPL Philippines Season 13. Initially, Hohl critiqued MPL Philippines and MPL Indonesia together, citing that the production of MPL Indonesia was relatively better than that of MPL Philippines but quickly reiterated that the Philippines' gameplay is substantially better.[27] During the first day of the third week, Hohl's image alongside the exact comment he made was posted during the livestream which the casters have quoted "MPL Philippines is boring".
Continuous backlash was thrown at Hohl for his comments with even players being asked to comment regarding the issue which included David "FlapTzy" Canon and King "K1NGKONG" Perez of Falcons AP Bren and Fnatic ONIC PH to name a few, respectively. In retaliation, Hohl made a public response regarding the matter on his personal YouTube channel which he criticized MPL Philippines' production for manipulating its fans.[28]
In a podcast episode from Mara "Mara" Aquino–one of the hosts whom quoted the comment made by Hohl, discussed it alongside David "Assassin Dave" Mao–host-turned head coach in North America, regarding the quote.[29] Hohl personally apologized to Aquino (whom she thanked for posting his response video) following the backlash she received upon the video's posting, to which Aquino affirmed Hohl that it was okay. He also gave thanks to Johnmar "OhMyV33Nus" Villaluna who made a different video citing his comments regarding the issue.
On 25 April 2024, Francis "Duckeyyy" Glindro posted on his official Facebook Page a screenshot of former University of Santo Tomas Teletigers Esports Club Head Coach Jigen Paul "Jigen Paul" Masangkay's profile alongside a messenger conversation allegedly working a deal with amateur players to game fix certain matches.[30] The conversation asked an unidentified individual if he/she is willing to pay a ₱100,000 fee (US$1,734.97) to game fix three MPL or MDL Philippines matches. Following the allegations, all MPL organizations and amateur teams have released statements regarding the matter and have launched independent investigations regarding the allegations.
At 9:55 PM of the same day, TNCZ4, the MDL Team affiliated to TNC Pro Team and Z4 Esports have suspended Jhonjie Paul "Jiee" Dela Rosa following match-making allegations surfaced online with tagged screenshots of his conversations with an unidentified individual. Furthermore, Z4 Esports' co-founded JC "King Cosmos" Garcia had inquired a league-wide investigation of the matter.[31]
On 26 April, RSG Philippines released a statement that two amateur players from their affiliated MDL team, RSG-El Ganador Esports in Raven "Aeris" Arellano and Christian John "Nyija" Calantoc were guilty of the match-making allegations and have terminated their rookie contracts following the ordeal.[32]

Regular Season Standings
Updated to match(es) played on 10 October 2024. Source:
Qualified to the phase indicated
The first match of the MPL Philippines playoffs was between the original rivalry between team Smart Omega and Blacklist International. Coming into the playoffs, Omega has a 4-1 record over Blacklist International, winning their matches with 2-0 and 2-1 victories during the regular season. This is also the first season which sees the MVP trio (commonly known as MV3) of "Edward" Dapadap, Kiel "Oheb" Soriano, and Imam "Hadji" Salic officially ending following Dapadap's early transfer to Aurora Gaming. Moreover, this series is notable for the return of Joshua "Ch4knu" Mangilog—who previously played for Omega Neos—returning to the pro-scene full time.
Omega's playoff drought prolongs as they fall in an upset 3-0 match against the underdogs Blacklist International who signed former MPL KH Jungler MP the King and loaned Exp Laner from Bigetron Alpha Lord JM.
The second match was between the debuting playoff team Aurora Gaming who against the defending MPL Philippines champions Team Liquid Philippines. TLPH was coming off a rough 8-6 regular season that placed them in sixth place. Initially, Aurora Gaming poised to be a formidable challenger to the former world champions, takings Games 1 and 3 unscathed of potential comebacks. However, TLPH would retaliate in Games 2 and 4 that would position them in comfortable compositions of heroes and bans. In Game 5, continual gold-lead shifts would hinder either team's ability to close off Game 5. Ultimately, Aurora Gaming defeated TLPH in the second series to face off the first seed Fnatic ONIC Philippines in the next round.
TLPH becomes the first former world champions to bow out from the MPL Philippines Season 14 playoffs following Blacklist International's advancement during the first match. Furthermore, they become the first MPL Philippines champion since Blacklist International (since the introduction of the franchise based-system) to have an early-playoff exit as the defending champions. The last time a defending champion failed to defend their title and exit earlier than expected from the playoffs was Blacklist International who failed to even qualify for playoffs in Season 9.

Year of Esports tournaments for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang in the Philippines
The 2024 MPL Philippines Season is the seventh year of professional gameplay[1] and the second year of development talent gameplay[2] for the country. MPL Philippines is a professional esports league for the MOBA game Mobile Legends: Bang Bang. The season will be divided into two splits: Season 13 is accompanied by MDL Philippines Season 3 while Season 14 will be accompanied by MDL Philippines Season 4. Season 13 began on March 15 and concluded the season with the Grand Finals match on May 26, 2024. Meanwhile, Season 14 will likely begin by August and end by November.
MDL Philippines was established as the second development league in Southeast Asia behind MDL Indonesia in 2023 and its first two seasons were played during the same year.[3] Season 13 was the qualifying tournament for Philippine teams to the 2024 Mid-Season Cup in Riyadh.[4] Season 14 on the other hand will be the qualifying tournament for Philippine teams to the MLBB M6 World Championships in Kuala Lumpur.[5] Only the champions and the runner-up teams will be qualifying for both international tournaments.
MPL Philippines Season 13 was the first professional season of the league in 2024. It is succeeding a season that culminated the championship of Falcons AP Bren for the second time in league history, and the second time in world history, winning the title on home soil against ONIC Esports.[6] Furthermore, the Mid-Season Cup is hosted for the first time outside of Southeast Asia and the first tournament bearing the rebranded name “Mid-Season Cup”. The tournament was formerly known as the “Southeast Asia Cup”.[7] Liquid ECHO defeated the defending world champions and MPL champions Falcons AP Bren in the Grand Finals in a 4–0 sweep.[8] This is Liquid ECHO's first title as "Liquid ECHO" and the second title under the "ECHO" brand name.
MPL Philippines Season 14 was the second professional season of the league in 2024. This season is the precursor season after the Mid Season Cup and the start of the qualifying matchups for the MLBB M6 World Championship in Malaysia. Fnatic ONIC Philippines made history by becoming the only team to have a thirteen-game winning streak, breaking the record of Blacklist International's 12-wins straight during Season 8. Moreover, this is the first time that Fnatic ONIC Philippines will qualify for the M6 World Championships since Season 8 following their 3-1 victory over the defending world champions Falcons AP Bren. Furthermore, Aurora Gaming—the indirect replacement to Minana EVOS—qualified for the first time for the playoffs, the grand finals, and the M6 World Championships despite only joining the league in the present season. Fnatic ONIC Philippines won its first organizational title since its entry to the MPL Philippines pro-scene in Season 4.
Occurring in the same year was the international multi-game tournament Games of the Future 2024 which was held in Kazan, Russia.[9] Falcons AP Bren and Blacklist International were invited to participate alongside teams that have competed during the M5 World Championships and teams that were directly invited by organizers.
MPL Philippines’ Seasons are split into two: The Regular Season and the Playoffs. The Regular Season consists of fourteen games. Each team competing will be playing a double-round robin tournament format, facing each other twice in the span of six to eight weeks. Only the top six teams will advance to the playoffs and the remaining two will be eliminated. Furthermore, the Regular Season instituted a new pointing system wherein:

Season 13 is the first MPL Philippines season following the conclusion of the M5 World Championships. During Season 8, the league shifted to a franchise-based system, eliminating regional qualifiers for local teams and fixing only eight franchise teams to compete in MPL Philippines. The Philippines is the second league to adhere to the franchise-based system, the other being Indonesia.[10] The season began on March 15 and concluded its regular season on May 5. The playoffs were held from May 22 to 26 at SM Southmall Events Center in Las Piñas[11]
The same 8 teams will be participating in the tournament which includes: Falcons AP Bren, Blacklist International, Team Liquid PH, Minana EVOS, Fnatic ONIC PH, Smart Omega, RSG Philippines, and TNC Pro Team.
Falcons AP Bren won the Games of the Future tournament in Kazan, defeating ONIC Esports 3 games to 1. Falcons AP Bren is the only Filipino team to be part of the Top 4 as Blacklist International lost to Fire Flux Esports of Turkey during the Quarterfinals of the single-elimination bracket.[12]
With the annual MSC 2024 tournament being held in Saudi Arabia, the tournament became the new sight for opportunities for international organization–a tournament with a $3,000,000 prize pool. International organizations have been partnering with Filipino organizations in order to fund and subsequently target the winning teams that can compete in MSC 2024.
On 19 May 2024, AP Bren announced its partnership with MPL MENA Organization Team Falcons for the season-ending playoffs.[13] A day later, ONIC PH announced their own partnership with the European-based organization Fnatic,[14] and a day later, ECHO announced their own partnership for the upcoming playoffs with Team Liquid. Liquid however, has announced their own acquisition of the AURA Esports franchise, thereby rebranding the team from ECHO/AURA to Team Liquid.[15]

Qualified to the phase indicated
Falcons AP Bren was the first team to qualify for the Playoffs during their Week 5, 2-0 sweep over TNC Pro Team which propelled them to an 8-1 record, seeding Fnatic ONIC PH to Number 2 following their loss to RSG Philippines during Day 1 of Week 5. Moreover, Fnatic ONIC PH was the next team to qualify for the playoffs after winning over Smart Omega in Week 5 Day 2.
After a 2-0 victory over Fnatic ONIC PH in Week 6, Minana EVOS qualified for the playoffs as the potential fifth seed for the first time since Season 9 when they were still branded as "Nexplay EVOS". This is the first playoffs for Minana EVOS since their rebrand.[16]
TNC Pro Team misses the playoffs for the fourth-consecutive season after losing 2-0 to their Week 6 match. TNC Pro Team's last playoff appearance was their third-place finish during MPL Philippines Season 9.[17]
Blacklist International secures the final playoff spot after winning one match against Team Liquid PH to tie the game series 1-1. That gave Blacklist International enough games to qualify for the MPL Philippines Season 13 playoffs, thereby eliminating Smart Omega from playoff contention.
After a 2-1 victory over Team Liquid PH, Falcons AP Bren finishes the regular season with an 11-3 record and 35 points, giving them the first seed in the playoffs. Team Liquid PH remained the second seed because of their total number of regular season points and due to the promptly defeat of RSG Philippines to Blacklist International which only gave RSG an additional 1 point to secure the third seed.
