It did not take long for Blacklist International to bounce back from its first defeat in Season 7 of the Mobile Legends Professional League Philippines (MPL PH).

Blacklist vented its frustrations from its stunning series loss to Bren Esports the day prior on slumping Execration, 2-1, in their best-of-three affair on Friday, April 30.

Dragged to a rubber match, Blacklist leaned on key picks Granger and Estes in Game 3 to notch its eighth series win in 9 outings and deal Execration its third consecutive series defeat.

Blacklist jungler Danerie James “Wise” del Rosario tallied 7 kills and 2 assists against 1 death on Granger as his side dispatched Execration in Game 3 in only under 13 minutes.

Johnmar “OhMyV33nus” Villaluna reinforced Wise with 8 assists against 0 deaths on Estes, while Jayson “Eson” Gerardo chalked up 1 kill and 7 assists against 0 deaths on Popol and Kupa.

Blacklist padded its lead in Group B with 21 points, way ahead of Omega Esports (14 points) and Execration (11 points).

Meanwhile, Onic PH netted its fourth straight series victory with a resounding 2-0 sweep of hapless Cignal Ultra.

Onic PH seized the No. 2 spot in Group A with 15 points, only a point behind Work Auster Force.

Cignal Ultra, on the other hand, remained without a series win in 10 assignments. – Rappler.com
