ONIC Philippines<\/a> outlasted Twisted Minds in a hard-fought three-game series to open their MPL Philippines Season 17<\/a> campaign on a winning note on Friday.<\/p>\n

It was a historic moment for MPL PH as Clayton \u201cSavero\u201d Kuswanto suited up for ONIC, marking the first time an import has played in the league.<\/p>\n

The Super Family fielded Savero alongside Nowee \u201cRyota\u201d Macasa, with Jann Kirk \u201cKirk\u201d Gutierrez taking the backseat. Twisted Minds, meanwhile, started Lee Howard \u201cOwl\u201d Gonzales in place of Mico \u201cNosia\u201d Capil.<\/p>\n

ONIC struck first as King Cyric \u201cK1NGKONG\u201d Perez led the charge. The jungler posted three kills and four assists on Harley, conceding just one death.<\/p>\n

Twisted Minds\u2019 30-minute effort in Game 1 went to waste as K1NGKONG and Savero led a crucial comeback near the ONIC base in the 28th minute, with the Indonesian import sealing a triple kill to complete the turnaround.<\/p>\n

Lance \u201cLansu\u201d Misa also impressed on Gloo, assisting in 11 of TWIS\u2019 21 total kills, while Ryota struggled on Phoveus with just one kill and three assists.<\/p>\n

Game 3 saw another extended battle, but ONIC ultimately prevailed after 20 minutes. K1NGKONG delivered a flawless 7\/0\/4 performance on Leomord, while Borris \u201cBrusko\u201d Parro stepped up with a 2\/3\/10 showing on Gatotkaca.<\/p>\n
