OhMyV33nus, Yue leave Blacklist International

Johnmar "OhMyV33nus" Villaluna and Kenneth "Yue" Tadeo have parted ways with MPL Philippines team Blacklist International.

OhMyV33nus made her announcement on early Thursday.

"I left Tier One Entertainment and Blacklist International because I know I would settle if I choose to stay," OhMyV33nus wrote in the caption of a social media post.

OhMyV33nus, M3 champion and a three-time MPL Philippines champion with Blacklist, also reflected on her career with Blacklist.

"Marami na rin kasing narating with Blacklist eh, back to back MPL Championships, M3 World Championship and sobrang dami nang bonggang eksena na hindi ko naimagine noon na possible pala mangyari sa buhay ko," the Blacklist star wrote.

"Sino nga ba si OHMYV33NUS na wala 'yung trophies and 'yung esports org na alam ng lahat? Tinatanong ko 'yan paulit-ulit sa sarili ko at iisa lang 'yung chikka. I’m at this point in life right now na I know already there’s something more than this, a higher version of me deep within me. More than I’ve ever accomplished."

The veteran roamer added she will not be afraid of her next moves.

"Each team and esports org I’ve worked with before, I’ve always considered them as my home. But I realized Home is where I go. Home is anyone who cares about me. Home is the name I’ve built for myself: OHMYV33NUS. I’ve always got me, and I will never be afraid no matter where life would take me."

OhMyV33nus has been on hiatus for two MPL seasons already, along with Danerie James "Wise" Del Rosario.

Blacklist midlaner Yue, meanwhile, announced his departure from the squad on Wednesday.

"Today I am formally announcing that I am leaving Blacklist International," Yue wrote in a social media post.

"Thank you to Blacklist because I know I've grown there as a player. Pero this time gusto ko naman maranasan ang ibang environment at madevelop pa ang sarili ko. I want to experience things outside my comfort zone. Sobrang thank you sa lahat ng sumusuporta na Blacklist Agents simula season 11 to 13."

Yue was part of the Blacklist squad which competed in the MSC 2023 finals but fell to Indonesia's Onic.
