The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) national team for the Philippines at the IESF World Esports Championship 2025 has most likely been finalized. As in previous years, the Sibol qualifiers have been held to determine the core of the team, with MPL Philippines teams participating.

Falcons PH emerged victorious in the qualifiers, earning the main slot. However, this has never meant that the full roster of the winning team would represent the country. Traditionally, the final lineup has been adjusted by the coaching staff—usually the coach of the Sibol qualifier winner—bringing in standout players from other teams to build the strongest possible roster.

This year, it has become increasingly clear that the Philippines is taking the IESF 2025 very seriously. A photo circulating on social media has revealed that only the mid-lane trio of Falcons PH is expected to retain their core roles in the national team.

Meanwhile, the side lanes appear to have been filled with two of the best individual talents in the Philippines at their respective roles. While this is not to downplay Super Marco and FlapTzy, the potential impact of Sanford and Kelra joining the lineup has been seen as a major power boost—turning this team into a genuine "Los Galacticos" of MLBB.

Sanford and Kelra Join the Squad

In a leaked photo from a recent training session, Trebor, the coach of both Falcons PH and the national team, has been seen leading practice alongside several players.

Spotted in the image were Kelra and Sanford, widely regarded as two of the top players in the gold and EXP lane respectively. They have been training alongside Falcons PH’s core mid-lane trio, suggesting a national superteam is in the works.

While no official confirmation has been made about the final roster, the training session and the typical structure seen in past years have strongly indicated that this is the direction the team has taken.

Where Is Indonesia?

As the Philippines and Malaysia have seemingly locked in their compositions early, questions have started to surface about Indonesia’s national team. When will they begin their Seleknas (national selection) process?

Will Indonesia once again be late in preparation compared to their regional rivals? With the level of competition increasing every year, the pressure is on to match the seriousness shown by PH and MY.

Only time will tell—but if this leaked lineup holds true, Team Philippines could be fielding their strongest IESF roster yet.
