The giants have fallen.
MPL Brazil’s Keyd Stars has done the unthinkable and upset the ONE Esports’ MPLI 2021 champion ONIC Esports in Group B of the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang M3 World Championship thanks to Luiizz’ clutch play on Clint.
How Keyd Stars’ Luiizz and the rest of the squad defeated ONIC Esports at the M3 World Championship

But Keyd Stars refused to give up, and managed to drag into the late game. The team had their biggest break at the 22-minute mark after Luiizz managed to steal the Lord from ONIC Esports, and killed two.
Keyd Stars took the opportunity and ran it down in the midlane to secure the victory against arguably the best Mobile Legends: Bang Bang team in the world right now.
