Also-ran TNC completed its upset of ONIC PH, 2-1, to snap its six-game losing streak in the MPL Philippines Season 10 regular season, Friday at the ICITE Auditorium.
Fresh from taking the second Lord of Game One, TNC immediately went for the game-winning siege entering the 16th minute to finish off ONIC PH.
TNC managed to take the early advantage after scoring crucial kills on Kenneth “Nets” Barro (Beatrix), Stephen “Sensui” Castillo (Akai), and Ralph “Rapidoot” Adrales (Atlas) which allowed Daniel “SDzyz” Chu (Dyroth) to clear the first Lord.
SDzyz led the way with four kills, a death, and two assists in the 11-9 Game One win while Jomarie “Escalera” Delos Santos had two kills, six deaths, and eight assists on Grock.
In Game Two, ONIC PH secured the Lord during the 19th minute before taking out Escalera (Kadita) during TNC’s base defense. Nets (Beatrix) went down afterwards followed by Mark “Kramm” Rusiana (Esmeralda).
It was all ONIC PH needed to seal the win as they locked onto TNC’s base to even series.
Frince “SUPER FRINCE” Ramirez (Valentina) put up monster numbers in Game Two, scoring 16 of ONIC PH’s 25 kills to go along with seven assists and five deaths.
TNC then bagged Game Three for the win.
TNC will end its campaign against Blacklist International tomorrow, Saturday at 7:30 PM.
