The best jungler in the North American Mobile Legends: Bang Bang scene will be taking his talents to Southeast Asia.

In his livestream last Monday, the 20-year old player confirmed he and his teammates, Ian “FwydChickn” Hohl and Carti, will be moving to the Philippines on March 19.

“I’m glad I’m not the only BTK member who’s interested in moving, because I don’t have to go all alone,” he said.

He also said that he hopes to stream twice a day in the Philippines, and play with local content creators as well as MPL PH Season 9 professional players.

“People in North America generally play PC and can’t help it, they’re less interested in ML. That’s why I want to get out of this country,” he added.

BTK had one of the most exciting runs at the M3 World Championship. They were able to upset big names in the tournament, including eventual champions Blacklist International, who they sent to the lower bracket in the first round of the playoffs.

They finished third in the tournament. Despite not winning the title, BTK was the first non-MPL team to get a podium finish in all world championships.
