MPL Philippines officially announced the mechanics to nominate 10 legendary players of all time to be inducted into the inaugural MPL Philippines Hall of Legends on Monday evening.
The program aims to commemorate MPL-PH athletes who have made considerable contributions to the league, as part of its 10th-season celebration.
Votes from the community or fans, active athletes, coaches, team owners, talents, MOONTON Games, and media partners will make up the list of legendary players. Active or retired MPL-PH pro players from seasons 1 to 10 are eligible for the nominations, including those who are playing in the current season.
Starting from September 5 to October 7, fans can nominate and vote using Facebook or TikTok in the form of videos, art cards, images, or statuses, posted on their public profiles. To officially count as a vote, the entrant should tag the MPL-PH Facebook or TikTok page and include the mandatory hashtags #MPL10LEGENDS, #LAKASNA10TO, and #MPLPhilippines in the caption.
“We thank our community for their contribution to the growth of the league. This is our way to give back to our fans while also celebrating our esports excellence since the birth of MPL Philippines,” says Tonyo Silva, MOONTON Games senior marketing manager for esports.
The league has prepared pillars such as strength, contribution, and legacy, to which the voting community can base their votes and nominations on.
The Strength attribute pertains to their remarkable gaming performance or skill. Contribution refers to what they shared with the MPL or MLBB esports scene and culture. Lastly, Legacy is the nominee’s overall impact throughout their MPL career. Those who have damaged the integrity of the game will not be deemed worthy of the induction and will be removed from consideration.
The MPL Hall of Legends awarding ceremony will be held during the MPL Philippines Playoffs.
