Yawi a champion again as Team Liquid ID clinches MPL Indonesia Season 14 title

Filipino import Tristan "Yawi" Cabrera captured his second MPL title, this time in a different country as his Team Liquid Indonesia outlasted RRQ Hoshi, 4-3, to reign supreme in MPL Indonesia Season 14 last Sunday.

Yawi, alongside fellow Pinoy reinforcement James "Jeymz" Gloria, will also head to M6 World Championship later this year where they are tipped to face Philippine bets Fnatic Onic Philippines and Aurora in a new era in the MLBB scene.

A crucial lord steal at the 13:16 mark of winner-take-all Game 7 set the stage for Team Liquid Indonesia's eventual victory, allowing the Cavalry to destroy RRQ Hoshi's base as the lord marched on at the top lane to finish it off.

The feat was momentous for Team Liquid, which won its first MPL title since entering the scene this year.

Yawi, a veteran roamer, also collected another title after helping steer Team Liquid Philippines (formerly Echo) win the M4 championship in early 2023 and MPL Philippines Season 11 crown

He then decided to bring his act overseas after joining Aura Esports earlier this year.
