Two major teams in the Mobile Legends Professional League Philippines (MPL PH) have officially revealed their rosters for the upcoming Season 17, setting the stage for another highly competitive season in the MLBB esports scene.

Both Team Liquid Philippines and Aurora Gaming PH confirmed their lineups ahead of the league’s opening in March 2026, giving fans a closer look at the teams that will compete for the championship title.

Team Liquid PH Announces New Lineup

Team Liquid PH, the defending champions of MPL Philippines, will enter Season 17 with several roster changes aimed at maintaining their dominance in the league.

One of the biggest changes is the move of Kiel “Oheb” Soriano to an inactive position. To strengthen the roster, the team brought in new talent including AeronnShikii, who joined on loan from Team Liquid Indonesia.

The updated Team Liquid PH lineup includes:

• Sanford “Sanford” Vinuya – EXP Lane

• Karl “KarlTzy” Nepomuceno – Jungle

• Alston “Sanji” Pabico – Mid Lane

• AeronnShikii – Gold Lane

• Daikiqt – Gold Lane

• Jaypee Gonzales – Roamer

• Santi Sucre – Roamer

With star jungler KarlTzy leading the squad, Team Liquid PH remains one of the strongest contenders heading into the new season.

Aurora Gaming Keeps Championship Core

Unlike Team Liquid, Aurora Gaming PH decided to maintain the same roster that delivered strong results in the previous season.

The team will continue competing with:

• Light – Roamer

• Domeng – Gold Lane

• Yue – Mid Lane

• Demonkite – Jungle

• Edward – EXP Lane

Keeping the roster intact makes sense for Aurora Gaming, especially after their impressive performances in recent international tournaments.

Aurora Gaming also made headlines earlier in 2026 by winning the M7 World Championship, defeating Alter Ego in the grand finals and securing another world title for the Philippines.
