Blacklist stays perfect, barges into MSC 2021 grand finals


Blacklist International proved that they are among the best of the best by completing another sweep, this time against Evos Legends Indonesia, 3-0, in the upper bracket finals to barge into the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Southeast Asian Cup (MSC) 2021 Grand Finals on Saturday.

The dominance was in full display as they did not let the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Professional League (MPL) Indonesia Season 7 Champs to make anything work all throughout the series en route to the sweep. They still have not dropped a single match in the tournament with a 9-0 record so far.

The series opened with a close early game in Game 1 but Danerie "Wise" Rosario (Brody) shattered the balance with a 9th minute triple kill that spearheaded a 4-1 trade.

Blacklist then completed another 3-0 wipe in the 11th minute that was converted into a lord take. The exchange proved to be the final recipe for the 13th minute conquest of the defending Indonesian champs, 1-0.

Game 2 went by with a similar storyline, with the reigning MPL Philippine champions pulling ahead in the 7th minute with a 4-0 wipe on the top lane followed by two turret takedowns.

The Tier One-backed squad protected their lead and culminated the Game 2 win with a 5-0 wipeout in the 12th minute.

Game 3 was still the same as Blacklist slowly dismantled the Indonesians and completed a similar 5-0 wipeout in the 12th minute to finish off the series.

They will be awaiting the winner of the lower bracket finals to dispute the MSC 2021 title on Sunday.
