Yesterday in Jakarta, Indonesia, Moonton hosted the Finals of the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang M4 World Championship. In a clean sweep of 4:0, ECHO, a team from the Philippines, emerged victorious over their fellow team, the former world champion Blacklist International.
Despite being the first team to make it to the Finals after defeating ECHO 3:2 in the Upper Bracket Finals, Blacklist International failed to maintain their previous success in the Finals.

In the first game of the match, ECHO took control of the pace and comfortably won within just 14 minutes.

However, ECHO gradually gained momentum and eventually surpassed Blacklist in terms of kills, ending the round with a final score of 20:8 in their favor. In the final moments, ECHO's Bennyqt successfully stole Blacklist's base, which ultimately resulted in their victory for the round.
During game three, ECHO displayed courage by selecting Gusion as their mid-laner, with ECHO Sanji taking on the role. The dynamic duo of "San-San" (Sanford and Sanji) placed a significant amount of pressure on Blacklist, resulting in ECHO winning the round with a score of 23:10 in kills.
In the fourth round, ECHO utilized their map control to gain a 5k gold lead over Blacklist. With this advantage, ECHO maintained a significant lead throughout the game, eventually securing both the victory in the game and the overall match.
