Blacklist International are your first-ever Honor of Kings McDonald's Tempest Cup champions. This is after they beat Execration in the grand finals.
With the dominant win, the Tier One-led Blacklist HOK team took home the lion's share of the PHP 500k prize pool and the coveted title.
The squad's unmatched strategy, wide hero pool, and resilience enabled them to outwit runner-up Execration, resulting in a 3-1 score.
Over a hundred teams competed in the McDonald's Tempest Cup 2024 over the course of three weeks to see who could be named the best Honor of Kings (HOK) Philippines team.
McDonald's outlets hosted the inaugural nationwide tournament, which brought together teams from Cebu, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. It made me think of community events from the days of LANs (or what we usually call computer shops/internet cafes), but this time with mobile phones.
Angelica Neri, Senior Esports Manager at Level Infinite, said:
The McDonald's Tempest Cup is the start of many Honor of Kings esports tournaments coming to the Philippines. With its success, we are also looking forward to the next chapter in our partnership with McDonald's Philippines. We hope to see everyone soon.
Gerald Gianne Gelacio, Blacklist International Coach, said:
I'm so happy na nag-champion kami sa first ever McDonald's Tempest Cup and minamanefest ko talaga to, na manalo kami para maging momentum din namin sa darating na HOK Championship. (I am very happy that we are the champions in the first-ever McDonald's Tempest Cup, and I really manifested that we would win so we would have the momentum in the upcoming HOK Championship.)
This local competition is powered by the official smartphone partner, TECNO Mobile Philippines.
