Twisted Minds continued to show heads after pulling off a gritty 2-1 win over AP.Bren to remain unbeaten by Week 1 of the MPL Philippines Season 16 on Sunday on the Inexperienced Solar Resort.
Twisted Minds, bannered by former Onic x 9 Lives standouts, picked up the place it left off from its surprising sweep of Staff Falcons only a day in the past because it cruised to a shock 2-0 begin.
However in contrast to their dominant sweep of Staff Falcons, Twisted Minds needed to grind out a harder win this time.
With the collection tied at one sport apiece, Twisted Minds set the tone in Sport 3 by storming to a commanding 7-0 kill unfold inside the first 5 minutes thanks to 3 early kills from roamer John Carlo “Caloy” Roma (Kalea).Â
AP. Bren tried to extend the sport with jungler Jonathan James “JamesPangks.” Mendoza (Lukas) going for a one-on-one duel towards his counterpart Michael “MPthe King” Endino (Yi Solar-shin), however the latter prevailed.Â
That spelled the distinction as two extra AP. Bren gamers went down, paving the way in which for the Twisted Minds’ tower lock to complete it off earlier than the twelfth minute mark.Â
Midlaner Miguel “Sionnn” Alcantara claimed the MVP honors after unleashing eight kills and eight assists towards no loss of life on his Kagura.Â
However regardless of their spectacular 2-0 begin, Twisted Minds stays grounded, understanding the highway forward in MPL PH will solely get harder as they tackle Sensible Omega and defending champion Staff Liquid subsequent week.Â
“Siguro masyado pang maaga para sabihin na nasa closing type na sila. Â Para sa akin, marami pa talaga silang kailangan i-improve,” Twisted Minds head coach Kristoffer “Bonchan” Ricaplaza stated.Â
“And kaya ako napamahal sa kanila, sobrang wala kaming problema pagdating sa exterior the sport.”
