MPL PH: ECHO remains undefeated, sends RSG to second straight loss


ECHO scored their third win in as many matches after surviving a tough 2-1 thriller over RSG Philippines in Week 2 of the MPL Philippines Season 13 at the Shooting Gallery Studios, Makati City on Friday.

The Orcas now sit atop the standings with nine points courtesy of a perfect 3-0 card.

It was sweet revenge for ECHO after suffering from a 3-1 grand finals defeat at the hands of RSG during the MPL Invitational 2023 in Jakarta, Indonesia last November.

“Siguro almost same lang (yung performance namin ngayon at nung MPLI). Pero siguro mas focused kami ngayon sa mga laro namin. Kahit hindi RSG, mas focused kami ngayon. Pero sa RSG talaga, kapag sila kalaban namin bugbugan talaga,” said ECHO head coach Archie “Tictac” Reyes.

In Game 1, ECHO conceded a crucial 19th-minute lord but responded with a 3-0 retaliation off the lord fight as Sanford “Sanford” Vinuya took two kills with the X.Borg before forcing a base turret siege in the ensuing sequence to take the opener. 1-0.

With their backs against the wall, RSG bounced back by dominating Game 2 highlighted by Nathanael “Nathzz” Estrologo’s (Arlott) double kill during the 13th-minute lord dance that touched off a game-winning 5-0 wipeout to extend the series, 1-1.

After splitting the first two matches, ECHO finally solved the RSG puzzle after Alson “Sanji” Pabico (Gusion) gunned three kills during a clean 5-0 wipeout of the 19th-minute lord fight to take the series.

ECHO will try to make it four straight against TNC Pro Team on Sunday, March 24.
