Coach Tictac caught teary-eyed after leading Echo to conquest of RSG Philippines


Coach Harold Francis “Tictac” Reyes, in his first stint as head coach in the MPL Philippines playoffs, could not help but be emotional while talking to the press after Echo sent RSG Philippines to the lower bracket and moved one win away from the M4 World Championship.

Taking over a "super team" that failed to meet expectations in Season 9, Coach Tictac earlier this season expressed feeling the pressure from replacing former Echo Coach Michael “Arcadia” Bocado, who took the MPL PH Season 5 crown with Sunsparks.

He relishes today's hard-earned victory as proof of the team's progress after failed attempts in the previous season.

“Sobrang saya namin kasi nga sabi nga natin, first win ng ECHO dito sa playoffs, ‘di ba? Dalawang season kaming early exit so ito napakalaking bagay sa amin ‘tong win,” said the emotional Tictac.

“One win na lang talaga, one win na lang matutupad na yung mga dreams ng mga bata na makalaro international.”

Coach Tictac and the rest of Echo try to make their M4 aspirations come true tomorrow against the winner between Blacklist International and Bren Esports in the other match-up in today's playoffs.
