ONIC's journey to becoming the MSC 2023 champion includes a number of transformations for the players and coaches who defends the Yellow Hedgehog Team. From ONIC at MSC 2022 who went home first, to becoming the strongest team in Southeast Asia. ONIC's victory at MSC 2023 is proof that the Yellow Hedgehog Team cannot be underestimated.

ONIC's Journey To Become MSC 2023 Champion

ONIC is the MPL ID Season 10 champion who got a ticket to the M4 World Championship. However, ONIC had to acknowledge ECHO's superiority in winning the M4. In the lower bracket M4, ONIC also had to be sent home by an esports team from their own country, namely RRQ.

ONIC once again won MPL ID Season 11 and got a ticket to MSC 2023. From the MPL ID S11 playoffs to the MSC 2023 semifinals, ONIC set a record as a team that has never lost a game.

It was only in the MSC 2023 final against Blacklist International that ONIC's record was broken. BLCK managed to steal two points from ONIC. However, when viewed from a match basis, ONIC's win streak is still intact!

It's interesting to see how ONIC's players, who were underestimated at first, have become the strongest in Southeast Asia!

King Sanz Rules Southeast Asia

MSC 2022 is King Sanz's career highlight. At that time ONIC and RRQ got tickets to MSC 2022. However, ONIC had to go home first because they didn't qualify for the playoffs.

When picked up at the airport, ONIC players did push ups to pay for their defeat at MSC 2022. However, ONIC did not push up alone. They were accompanied by media crew and MPL ID talent as a form of support with the theme "Going Through Thick and Thin Together"

At that time, Gilang Sanz was one down-to-earth person. However, who would have thought that a year later, Sanz was hailed as King Sanz and was carried on a stretcher in the MPL ID S11 final like a king?

Captain Butsss Stealthy but Deadly

As a captain, Butsss is a quiet person. However, Butsss's silence turns out to be deadly. It was proven when ONIC's base was almost destroyed against Burn x Flash in the MSC 2023 Group Phase, Butsss, who defended himself alone, was able to prevent his team from losing. Butsss actually got a maniac because he managed to kill a number of opposing heroes.

CW’s Validation in International Tournaments

ONIC's gold laner, CW, is one of the parties to blame for ONIC's defeat in the international arena. However, CW was able to prove himself to be the best gold laner in Indonesia by bringing ONIC to win the MPL ID Season 11. MSC 2023 is proof for CW that he can show his best performance in international tournaments.

Revenge of Kiboy the Reserve Player at the SEA Games

Kiboy, who was benched while defending the national team at the SEA Games, admitted that he wanted revenge. Kiboy's words were proven by becoming the MVP Finals at MSC 2023.

Kairi's Sad Boy Mode Is Key

Kairi, who admits that he doesn't have a partner, shows Lancelot playing sad boy mode which troubles his enemies in the Land of Dawn. As an expensive player who was brought in from the Philippines, Kairi proved he could bring trophies to ONIC.

Coach Yeb's Beautiful Honeymoon

Coach Yeb, who just got married, must return to the battlefield to win the MSC 2023 title. Coach Yeb's win at MSC 2023 is a beautiful gift for Coach Yeb and his wife's honeymoon. Coach Yeb also celebrated the victory with his wife.

Drian Wins MSC Twice

An interesting fact from ONIC winning the MSC 2023 is that one ONIC player has officially won two MSC trophies, namely Drian. When he was a starting player, Drian successfully won the MSC 2019 title. At MSC 2023, Drian did often warm up on the bench, but his role succeeded in bringing ONIC to victory.

Even with Drian warming the bench ONIC still won. What if Drian joins the game?

Coach Adi Finally Succeeds in Bringing the Team to Win MSC

ONIC's journey to becoming a champion cannot be separated from Coach Adi's career as a trainer and analyst. Coach Adi succeeded in bringing RRQ to the third place in the M4 World Championship. However, Coach Adi was blamed for RRQ's failure to advance to the M4 Grand Final. This is because a number of netizens and MLBB fans blamed Coach Adi for respecting Blacklist International’s Estes.

Until finally, Coach Adi left RRQ and joined ONIC in MPL ID S11. Under the hands of Coach Adi and Coach Yeb, ONIC became an almost unbeatable team in MPL ID S11. ONIC has only lost once against RRQ in the MPL ID S11 group stage.

ONIC won the MPL ID S11 without ever losing in the playoffs. This proves that Coach Adi can also bring a team to become champions, not stuck as runners up. However, a number of internet users still doubt Coach Adi in the international arena.

MSC 2023 is also a place to prove to Coach Adi that he can bring the team to win in international tournaments.
