TOP seeds Lyceum and Letran took contrasting paths in the playoffs but still arranged a fitting final dance for all the marbles of the Collegiate Center for Esports (CCE) Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Season 2.
The Pirates and the Knights ended the single-round eliminations at joint No. 1 with identical 8-1 cards before figuring in an early encounter in the upper bracket finals with the latter getting the better of the back-and-forth duel, 2-1.
As Letran, which also bested third-seeded Arellano in the first phase of the upper bracket with a 2-1 win, made the first crack at the grand finals, defending champion Lyceum needed to work its way up from the lower bracket.
And the Pirates stamped their poise and championship pedigree there with Mark Kenneth “Mark” Delos Reyes time and again proving his worth as the reigning MVP of CCE presented by Galaxy Racer and Smart, with SM Mall of Asia, Cyberzone, Legion by Lenovo, Mountain Dew, Hawk Bags, Fantech, Huawei AppGallery as sponsors, and MPL-Philippines serving as an official partner.
