After trying their luck overseas, Clarense “Kousei” Camilo and Michael “MP the King” Endino are set to make their much-awaited return to the Philippines.
Kousei and MP the King played crucial roles as See You Soon bagged its second championship in the MPL Cambodia after taking down the top-seeded CFU Gaming, 4-3, in a thrilling best-of-seven grand finals series at the Aeon Mall Sen Sok City, Sunday night.
With the victory, See You Soon has punched a ticket to the M5 World Championship, giving both Kousei and MP the King the opportunity to play in the Philippines.
The former RSG PH gold laner (Karrie) saved the best for last, spearheading See You Soon in the final clash of Game 7 during the 17th minute and scored a double kill in the championship-clinching five-man wipe.
Kousei ended the do-or-die match with a game-high nine kills to go along with seven assists without a single death while the ex-Nexplay Esports jungler provided 12 assists and a kill against three deaths in 18 minutes and five seconds of action.
The up-and-coming Filipino players became the third and fourth players to win a championship in MPL KH after coach John “Zico” Dizon and Jhonwin “Hesa” Vergara copped the MPL KH Autumn 2022 title with Burn X Flash.
See You Soon opened the playoffs with a 3-1 win over Hesa and PRO Esports before sending erstwhile champion Burn X Flash down the lower bracket via a dominant 3-0 victory.
The team then escaped CFU Gaming in the upper bracket finals before repeating against the top-ranked squad from the regular season in the finale.
