History[]

The roots of Blacklist International first came from SxC Imbalance, who surprised the audience with their amazing performance against crowd favourites Execration in MPL-PH S2. Due to this, Evos Esports decided to acquire the roster and rebrand them as Evos PH. However, in Season 4, corruption plagued the organization which lead to Evos disbanding the team. It isn't the end for the remnants of Evos though, as they were acquired by Tier One Entertainment and rebranded them as Blacklist International. In Season 7, they finally claimed their first championship with the help of the famed VeeWise duo and in M3, managed to destroy all their opponents.

Tournaments[]

Season 2[]

Formerly known as SxC Imbalance, the newcomer team brought a surprise into the MLBB scene after defeating crowd favorites, Execration. They finished 4th Place in the Playoffs, defeated by Finesse Solid.

Season 3[]

The roster of SxC Imbalance was acquired by EVOS Esports ID and rebranded into EVOS Esports PH. They finished 4th Place again in the Playoffs, eliminated by Cignal Ultra.

Season 4[]

After placing 7th in the Regular Season, they were eliminated by Bren Esports in the playoffs. Internal issues rose within the organization, which led to EVOS Esports ID disbanding the team.

Season 5[]

Some of the roster was acquired by Tier One Entertainment and rebranded into Blacklist International. They slowly rose to fame in the first half of the Regular Season with their unorthodox picks, dominating the league behind SunSparks. Unfortunately, they were unable to maintain their momentum in the second half of the Regular Season and finished 6th Place. They were eliminated in the Playoffs by Execration in the second day.

Season 6[]

Blacklist International acquired rookie prodigy FULLCLIP and ESON. They managed to beat ONIC PH, Execration and crowd favorites NexPlay Predator Solid. However, they fell short against Omega Esports, who beat them with a 3-2 in a long and fierce fight.

Season 7[]

Blacklist International built their new roster by trading FULLCLIP (now known as "Kairi") for ONIC PH's duo VeeWise (OhMyV33nus and Wise). They also acquired the rookie OHEB. With the former captain DEX STAR stepping up to the analyst role, OhMyV33nus took the captain role. Together with ESON, Edward, and OHEB, they dominated the league with their "UBE (Ultimate Bonding Experience) Strategy" and swept the Regular Season with a 12-1 standing. They bagged their first MPL Championship title by defeating Execration with a 4-3 in a nail-biting finals series.

MSC 2021[]

Coming strong with their UBE Strategy, Blacklist International proved to Southeast Asia that the Philippines is one of the strongest regions in MLBB. Beating all the other Southeast Asia Regions, they secured the Upper Bracket and managed to land a grand finalist spot, only losing to their fellow Filipinos, Execration.

Season 8[]

HADJI (formerly "Hadjizy"), who started his MPL career with SxC Imbalance with BON CHAN and DEX STAR during Season 2 left for SGD Omega (now "Omega Esports") during Season 5. After Omega Esports let go of its current roster, HADJI returned to Blacklist International in Season 8. With ESON sitting back as the 6th Man, HADJI was put in the main five.

With HADJI, Blacklist International continued their dominance in Season 8. They once again swept the Regular Season with an 11-game win-streak, only losing to ONIC PH. They ended the Regular Season with an Upper Bracket placement with their 13-1 standing, proving to be one of the most dominant teams in MPL PH in history as of late. In the Playoffs, they were brought down to the Lower Bracket by their rivals, Omega Esports (former "Execration"). In a turn of events, Blacklist International eliminated Omega Esports in the lower bracket and later on won their back-to-back Championship title after defeating ONIC PH in a 4-1 score.

M3 World Championship[]

Because Blacklist are the champions of MPL-PH S8, they were able to claim a spot in M3 along with their compatriots ONIC PH. In Group A, they easily overpowered the teams that are sorted in Group A, which includes Turkish team Bedel, Brazilian champions Red Canids and LATAM representative Malvinas Gaming. In the Upper Bracket playoffs, they were unfortunately defeated by US representative BloodThirstyKings led by MobaZane. This fight is dubbed as one of the greatest upsets in the history of MLBB esports. Despite this loss however, Blacklist reinforced themselves with their saying "No team beats us twice.", first by defeating ONIC Esports, the champion of Indonesia and MPLI 2021 and slowly climbed their way up, defeating Vivo Keyd, then RRQ and then Evos Esports. They again met BTK after being defeated by Onic PH in a clean sweep and finally claimed their revenge by defeating them 3-1. In the Grand Finals, they were able to defeat Onic in a clean 4-0, claiming the title as the best ML team in the world and fortified the claim that Philippines is still the strongest country when it comes to MLBB.

Season 9[]

In Season 9, the famed VeeWise duo took a break after the M3 World Championship and is set to return on Season 10. Despite the line-up still having great potential due to having 3 coaches and the MVP trio still at the helm, they struggled clearly because their new jungler Kevier's assassin role didn't fit the UBE strategy. Blacklist was only able to attain 2 victories, with the first coming from Bren in a clean 2-0 while the other one is from RSG PH, whom they defeated in a manner of 2-1. Their last match was against Omega Esports who began to bounce back stronger after the announcement of an offline format and was defeated in a score of 0-2, ending the season with a dead last 13-24 W-L record.
