Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Mid Season Cup (MSC) at the 2026 Esports World Cup (EWC) Wild Card has reached its first major milestone, with FUT Esports and The HUNS Esports topping their respective groups to secure direct qualification to the Wild Card Semi Finals.
Victory Song Gamers' Group Stage campaign ended after finishing fifth in Group A.
Phase 2 on Day 3 will include MSC's very first cross-group gauntlet format for the remaining qualified teams. Squads must survive the bracket to secure the final MSC EWC 2026 Main Stage spot after facing elimination pressure in every match.
The teams advancing to Phase 2 of the tournament are:
- Group A
- #2 - Alpha7
- #3 - The MongolZ
- #4 - King of Gamers Club
- Group B
- #2 - Team Falcons MENA
- #3 - Sunset Ravens
- #4 - Nightmare Esports
Here's a note from Moonton regarding the rules on tiebreaker:
Since three teams in Group A finished the Group Stage tied on ranking points, the standings were determined in accordance with the Official Rulebook's tiebreaker—ultimately, it was the total time it took to win their games that proved the key differentiator.
The official tiebreaker rules are as follows:
- If the ranking of the tied teams cannot be determined by ranking points, the tied teams will be ranked by head-to-head record.
- If the ranking of the tied teams cannot be determined by head-to-head record, the tied teams will be ranked by winning time (only the time of winning games)—the less time the team used, the higher ranking the team is.
- If the ranking of the tied teams cannot be determined by winning time (only the time of winning games), the tied teams will be ranked by the shortest single-game winning time, the less time the team used, the higher rank the team is.
- If the shortest single-game winning time (only the time of winning games) are still the same, then the longest single-game winning time will be compared. The less time the team used, the higher rank the team is.
- All match time data is based on the in-game results screen.
Day 3 of MSC EWC 2026 Wild Card continues with Phase 2
Nightmare Esports and King of Gamers Club, the fourth-placed teams from each group, will face The MongolZ and Sunset Ravens, the third-placed teams. The victors of those matches will face Team Falcons MENA and Alpha7, the second-placed teams.
In Phase 3, the final winners from either side of the gauntlet will fight FUT and HUNS in the Wild Card Semi Finals, a cross-group, best-of-three single-elimination competition. The remaining two teams will compete for the final MSC EWC 2026 Main Stage slot.
