The race to the MPL Philippines Season 15 playoffs reaches its final, fiery stretch as Week 8 promises a mix of grudge matches, high-stakes showdowns, and last-chance salvos. With only a few games left in the regular season, teams are either clawing for a top-two seed or fighting to stay alive. The tension? At an all-time high.

  


WEEK 8 SCHEDULE

DAY 1 – MAY 2 (Friday)

  • 5:00 PM – Team Liquid PH vs TNC
  • 7:30 PM – Smart Omega vs AP Bren

Week 8 opens with Judgment Day, a rematch between Team Liquid PH and TNC that could rewrite playoff trajectories. TNC looks to avenge an earlier loss and prove they can punch above their weight, while TLPH aims to cement a top-two finish heading into the postseason.

Later, Smart Omega faces AP Bren in a matchup heavy with emotional weight. Omega’s playoff hopes are still alive—barely—while Bren, already out of contention, could play spoiler and drag another team down with them.


DAY 2 – MAY 3 (Saturday)

  • 2:30 PM – Team Liquid PH vs Aurora
  • 5:00 PM – Smart Omega vs ONIC Philippines
  • 7:30 PM – AP Bren vs Team Falcons PH

Saturday brings the main event: Aurora vs Team Liquid PH—the second chapter of Epic Rivals. It’s not just about bragging rights. With both teams gunning for the top seed, this clash could define the playoff bracket. All eyes will be on the duos that headline their squads: Oheb and KarlTzy for TLPH, and Domengkite and Demonkite for Aurora.

Omega then faces another must-win against ONIC, a team they shocked last season in a dramatic upset. Depending on their Friday result, this game might decide if Barangay Omega gets another shot at glory—or goes home early. ONIC, meanwhile, continues their campaign for a strong upper bracket finish.

To cap Day 2, Team Falcons face AP Bren in a matchup that reflects two different timelines: Falcons continuing their rise after a global campaign, and Bren closing their rookie season with lessons learned.


DAY 3 – MAY 4 (Sunday)

  • 5:00 PM – ONIC Philippines vs Twisted Minds PH
  • 7:30 PM – Aurora vs Team Falcons PH

Sunday opens with ONIC vs Twisted Minds, a game with direct implications on the final playoff berth. If Omega stumbles earlier, Twisted Minds can swoop in and steal the last ticket. ONIC, meanwhile, hopes to secure their spot and gain momentum heading into the playoffs.

Finally, the regular season wraps with a banger: Aurora vs Falcons. Aurora looks to lock in the No. 1 seed, while Falcons aim to end their campaign with a statement win—a reminder that they’re still one of the most dangerous squads in the league.

The stage is set. The stakes are high. The regular season finale begins May 2.
