With NAVI PH’s stunning exit, the Philippines' hopes for a back-to-back MLBB Women’s Invitational crown now hinge entirely on Team Liquid PH.
Day 1 of the 2025 MLBB Women’s Invitational (MWI) playoffs was filled with drama as one team soared while another faltered.
Team Liquid PH advanced to the semifinals, becoming the last Philippine team standing after the shocking exit of defending champion NAVI PH.
TLPH kept their championship hopes alive in their debut tournament, pulling off a dominant 2-0 sweep over Twisted Minds.
Gold laner Clarisse “CLA” Cordova was unstoppable, delivering a spectacular 16-0-5 KDA on Irithel to clinch the series in Game 2.
Zaishii also shone brightly with a flawless 4-0-11 KDA on Angela, and together, they set the stage for a blockbuster best-of-five semifinal clash with Team Vitality, last year’s runners-up.
While TLPH marched on, it was the end of the road for NAVI PH after a stunning exit at the hands of the Gaimin Gladiators via a 2-0 loss.
NAVI PH was overwhelmed in Game 1, and a pivotal Lord fight in the second game shifted the momentum in GG's favor. The Gladiators capitalized on NAVI PH’s crucial mistakes, sealing the victory with a flawless team wipeout.
Last year, under the name Smart Omega, NAVI PH claimed the championship after toppling Team Vitality.
Waiting in the semifinals for GG are Terror Queens, who booted out ONIC ID in a three-game affair.
