PKL Fall 2025: TNT, Elevate, Boom Secure Action-Packed Wins
MAKATI — The Philippines Kings League (PKL) Fall Split 2025 once again delivered high stakes action at Shooting Gallery Studios as TNT Tropang Alab, Elevate, and Boom Esports each walked away victorious in their respective series.
TNT Tropang Alab Sweeps Team Flash PH
TNT Tropang Alab came in with sharp execution and precise team fighting, sweeping winless Team Flash PH in two games.
Kevin “Sica” Bitancur earned MVP honors in Game 1 with his Gan & Mo, finishing with a strong 3/1/8 KDA.
The turning point came at the 17:30 mark when TNT clashed in the midlane and wiped out three of FLPH’s five members. That single sequence opened the map and gave TNT the breathing room to push for the base. The Tropang Alab capitalized on their 5-on-2 advantage as they marched straight into FLPH’s crystal base at the 18-minute mark to secure the opener.
John Kirvy “Kirvsu” Nulla then took the spotlight in Game 2 with his Erin, earning MVP honors with an impressive 8/3/6 KDA.
TNT once again struck early in the midlane, as a team fight at 6:35 gave them a huge advantage with a three-man wipe highlighted by Kirvsu’s double kill. The aggression allowed TNT to dictate tempo, and their control of objectives became apparent.
At 20:45 mark, Vincent Khyle “Khan” Ruar’s Jing secured the Tempest Dragon for TNT despite FLPH’s desperate steal attempt, solidifying their dominance.
FLPH, on the other hand, attempted a last-ditch comeback at 21:27 when Nguyễn “Bridget” Văn Lĩnh’s Dharma spearheaded a surprise midlane initiation that took down Kirvsu’s Erin. However, TNT quickly regrouped and retaliated by wiping out three FLPH members in the aftermath.
With the advantage regained, they stormed through the midlane and destroyed the crystal base at the 22-minute mark, completing the sweep. John Lloyd “Impressive” Dela Cruz’ Ming anchored the squad with a flawless 1/0/14 KDA, showcasing consistency and stability that allowed TNT to close the series cleanly.
Elevate blanks ACT in Record-Breaking Fashion
Elevate once again showcased their resilience and endurance, sweeping ACT Esports Club in a series that rewrote PKL history.
Game 1 set the tone as Eleazar “Azar” Salle’s Marco Polo delivered MVP-worthy numbers, finishing with a 3/2/1 KDA. By the nine-minute mark, Elevate had already built a five-thousand gold lead, thanks in large part to Steven “Haru” Buenaventura’s Menki, who pulled off a clutch Tyrant steal.
With their economy surging, Elevate tightened their grip by choking ACT’s map presence and securing key objectives.
ACT looked poised for a comeback at 15:20 after scoring a crucial Tyrant kill that briefly shifted momentum. But Azar immediately shut the door by soloing Renzel “Zel” Ayuban’s Biron in the midlane. That elimination cracked open ACT’s defenses, and Azar wasted no time pushing through to finish the game at their crystal base.
Game 2, however, cemented Elevate’s place in PKL lore as they outlasted ACT in the longest battle in league history. Sean Andrei “Hide” Baguino’s Guan Yu took MVP honors with a resilient 4/3/1 KDA, anchoring team fights and providing crucial crowd control that kept Elevate steady throughout the marathon clash.
The thriller, clocking at 27 minutes and 28 seconds surpassed the previous record of 27:21 between Elevate and Barcode Esports last September 6.
The decisive moment came during the contest for the third Tempest Dragon, when Elevate baited ACT into a chaotic engagement. At 28:10, Hide’s Guan Yu and Azar’s Di Renjie executed a split push on the toplane, catching Zel’s Mayene and Vern Bryan “Astral” Forcrey’s Nuwa off guard.
Zel was quickly eliminated, and with Hide boxing out Astral, Azar locked onto the crystal base to secure the historic 2-0 sweep.
Boom Outlasts WETRND in Three-Game Thriller
BOOM Esports and WETRND Esports delivered a thrilling back-and-forth showdown, with Boom ultimately edging out their rivals in a nail-biting 2-1 series.
Game 1 went Boom’s way as Miguel Klarenz “Miggie” Banaag’s Mayene shined with a flawless 3/0/7 KDA to earn MVP honors. The turning point came at 13:25, when they dominated a jungle skirmish, leaving only Aaron Mark “Aaron” Bingay’s Lady Zhen alive.
With Karl Ken “Karlll” Bautista’s Dun also posting a perfect 3/0/5 KDA, BOOM stormed down the lane to claim a convincing 12-4 victory.
WETRND, however, refused to fold in Game 2. Ratchakit “Syndicate” Wanasiriporn’s Dharma led the counterattack, securing MVP with a 5/3/8 KDA. At 20:45, BOOM nearly repeated their Game 1 dominance after winning a top-lane clash.
But just as BOOM prepared to close, Heri “Tatsurii” Garcia’s Mi Lady launched a desperate midlane push while Miggie’s Biron tried to hold off Mark Jentry “Maze” Galang’s Lian Po. In a stunning twist, BOOM’s own crystal tower collapsed to mega minions first, handing WETRND the win and forcing a decider.
Game 3 lived up to the hype as both squads traded blow for blow until the 16-minute mark. Miggie’s Guan Yu, who earned MVP with a 1/3/8 KDA, sparked the turning point with a bold bush check in the bottom lane, cornering Maynard “Arise” Limon’s Jing and Syndicate’s Sun Ce.
That pick snowballed into a cascade of kills, as Boom dove under tower to eliminate Aaron’s Yixing and Darren “Darrfinn” Morga’s Chano. With only Maze left to stall, Reniel “Dr4w” Angara’s Yuhuan secured the kill to slam the door shut.
Karlll’s Pei rounded out the effort as Boom’s steady damage anchor, finishing with a strong 8/2/6 KDA that sealed the hard-fought series.
