The playoff bracket has been determined after eight weeks of intense battle in the MPL-PH regular season.
The MPL Philippines Season 15 playoffs are set to kick off from May 28 to June 1 at the Green Sun Hotel in Makati, as the league’s top six teams clash for the championship.
After an intense regular season, the playoff bracket is now locked, with high-stakes matchups guaranteed from the very first day.
Top seeds Team Liquid PH and Aurora Gaming will enjoy a first-round bye after finishing with identical 12-2 records, with Team Liquid PH earning the first seed by virtue of their head-to-head win over Aurora. Both teams automatically advance to the second round of the upper bracket, where they await their challengers.
Third seed ONIC PH and sixth seed Twisted Minds will meet again immediately after wrapping up their regular season against one another. Their rematch opens the first round, with elimination on the line. The winner will go on to face Aurora Gaming in the second round, while the loser will be sent home.
The other first-round pairing features fourth seed Team Falcons against fifth seed TNC Pro Team. Like the ONIC-Twisted Minds matchup, the stakes are high — only one team will advance, with the loser eliminated. The victor will take on top-seeded Team Liquid PH in the next round of the upper bracket.
Winners of the second round will proceed to the upper bracket finals, where a spot in the grand finals is up for grabs. The loser of that clash will drop to the lower bracket, where a final playoff push remains possible. The lower bracket will host the survivors of the first round eliminations as well as the upper bracket finalist runner-up, ultimately producing one team to face the upper bracket champion for the title.
With no second chances in the opening round and only one team destined to lift the MPL-PH Season 15 trophy, the playoffs promise to deliver high-level action, tense rematches, and unforgettable storylines on the road to the grand finals.
