Aurora’s tourney life in jeopardy, Fnatic ONIC cruises to 2-0 as M6 Swiss stage chaos continues

PUTRAJAYA, Malaysia – With the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang M6 World Championship’s Swiss stage taking shape, the two MPL Philippines representatives went to vastly separate ways in the second day of the competition Friday.

Filipino champs Fnatic ONIC Philippines sustained their dominant form, sending Cambodian outfit CFU Gaming to the 1-1 bracket.

Frince Miguel “Super Frince” Ramirez went berserk with the Cecilion as his late-game damage clicked with a 4/1/12 KDA to lead FNOP to a flawless 2-0 record.

Jaymark “Hadess” Lazaro and Keith “Vanix” Lim Wei Jun meanwhile became the latest roadblock to Aurora Gaming as the latter suffered an 8-17 beatdown at the hands of NIP Flash.

Kenneth “Yue” Tadeo was limited to just two kills and four assists as his Zhuxin was slain five times in the process to prevent any late-game Aurora engagements.

Across the 16-team table, the Swiss stage produced more eventful and even a few shockers on the second day of the main stage.

BloodThirstyKings brought down their second Turkish prey as they beat MTC champions S2G Esports, while Middle East’s best Twisted Minds sent a message to the rest of the competition after upsetting Myanmar champs Falcon Esports.

Elsewhere, Team Vamos bounced back as they dominated Argentina’s Maycam Evolve, while Team Liquid ID cruised past China’s KeepBest Gaming.

Malaysian champions Selangor Red Giants bounced back after an opening-day shocker with a win against Ulfhednar.

Ahmet “Rosa” Batır will meet a familiar face as they will go face-to-face against Aurora, as Jonard Cedrix “Demonkite” Caranto and Sidar “Tienzy” Menteşe will battle it out who will have their tournament lives extended.

RORA will need to rally their troops as they will head to a familiar best-of-three series, with the loser going home prematurely.

FNOP meanwhile will have a tough task at hand as they will face the fan favorite RRQ Hoshi, whichh will be highlighted by the faceoff between Duane “Kelra” Pillas and Schevenko “Skylar” Tendean.

A win for either FNOP or RRQ in this best-of-three series will secure them a ticket to the playoffs as the top-seeded team.
