Kelra’s dad apologizes for son’s actions


Rex Pillas, the father of embattled star Duane “Kelra” Pillas, pleaded for understanding after his son figured in a string of controversies that led to a 14-day ban in the MPL Philippines, Monday night.

A couple of videos clipped from the livestream of RRQ Hoshi star Albert “Alberttt” Iskandar showed Kelra, who was playing with Alberttt at the time and was communicating through Discord, making his inappropriate remarks.

The 16-year-old up-and-coming star made lewd comments about Blacklist International members Danerie “Wise” Del Rosario and Johnmar “OhMyV33NUS” Villaluna. He also made sexist remarks over Thai player Chareeny “Ramellabah” Ramella of IDNS Esports.

“Kami po ng aming buong pamilya ay humihing ng sorry at paumanhin sa nagawa ng aking anak. Nakahanda naman kami kung ano ‘man ang desisyon ng MPL, pero sana ‘wag na natin gatungan,” Pillas posted in the Facebook group Execration Official Fan Group.

“Oo nagkamali siya, nag sorry na din sa kanyang nasagasaan. Yung ibang tao kasi parang gusto na siyang ibaon, kung makikilala at makikita niyo niyo siya sa personal sobrang bait na bata niyan, kahit sino puwede siya lapitan para mag pa-picture.

“Nadala lang siguro siya minsan ng kaniyang emosyon, lagi ko sinasabi sa kaniya na professional na siya kaya act like a pro. Inuulit ko po, hinay hinay naman sana yung iba sa pang ba-bash na parang nakapatay na siya ng tao,” he added.

Aside from the 14-day suspension without pay, the 2021 MSC MVP was also given a serious warning, along with an undisclosed amount of fine.

Players that are set to compete in the Season Eight of MPL Philippines are now required to attend a Gender Sensitivity and Sexual Harassment Awareness Training Seminar.

“Again, sorry at paumanhin sa nagawa ng aking anak.”
