Team HAQ vs. TODAK

Get ready for an exciting showdown as Team HAQ defends their title as the reigning champions of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Professional League Malaysia (MPL MY). The all-star team took everyone by surprise last season with their Cinderella run, and many are looking to dethrone them this year.

Aiman Haq, the owner of Team HAQ, stated, “We welcome the added competition from new teams and foreign talents. We look forward to the new season and have gone through heavy preparations. This growth will help contribute to the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang esports ecosystem in the nation.”

But their biggest rivals, TODAK, are not giving up so easily. Despite their disappointment at the M4 World Championship, they are looking to mount another challenge for the MPL MY throne. They’ve added Malik, a former Bren Esports player, to their roster to bolster their ranks and assume the top spot in the national league.

Lan Todak, the owner of TODAK, said, “We won’t let past setbacks stop us from pushing on for more glory. I want to assure our fans that we will not stop pursuing greater achievements, and we appreciate their constant support through the good and bad times.”

The MPL MY grand finals last season saw a peak-concurrent viewership increase of 232,500 and over 3,000 offline audiences watching live. With other teams, such as Homebois and Team Lunatix, bringing in overseas coaches and talents, fans can expect new rivalries and even more exciting matches for the upcoming season.
