IN THE first two weeks of the MPL-PH's ninth season, Omega Esports could have been described as a team on the verge of a collapse.
Fingers were pointed at Joshua “Ch4knu” Mangilog. According to some observers, the Omega roamer was performing below the ceiling he once established in the previous seasons.
Then came that victory over Onic PH, where Omega fired back at their critics with inspired outings from Ch4knu, Patrick James “E2MAX” Caidic, and Dean Christian “Raizen” Samagui.
