Published May 25, 2021, 7:15 PM 8134 After a grueling seven-week Regular Season, eight teams remain in the running for the MPL Philippines Season 7 championship. Blacklist International and Aura PH emerged atop their respective groups while Bren Esports and Smart Omega needed to end their shaky campaigns on a strong note to assure themselves a spot in the upper bracket.
