Team HAQ’s invincible run ends in MPL MY Season 12: Recap, upcoming fixtures, and more

While Selangor Red Giants have somehow secured the top spot despite a defeat to RSG MY disrupting their invincible run, Team HAQ's disruption to their run hasn’t been that fortunate in the MPL MY Season 12. As things stand after week 3's conclusion of the tournament, only Team SMG among the previous week's league leaders has maintained its run without recording a single defeat.

Therefore, while Team HAQ slides down to the fifth position in the table after their defeat against Team Lunatix, Team SMG keeps chasing the table toppers with a two-point deficit.

The third week of Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Professional League Malaysia (MPL MY) has seen some nerve-wracking encounters between the top teams from Malaysia’s esports scene. Despite SMG's defeat against RSG MY, the team has acquired 13 points to maintain their top spot on the table. On the other hand, defending champions TODAK are yet to find their form as they stand in the seventh position of the table with six points.

The competition's third week also set a new attendance record on the Seru Saturday. This article brings a complete recap of the MPL MY Season 12 games of week three and upcoming fixtures, among other updates.

Team Lunatix finds their good run of forms at Team HAQ’s expense

Team Lunatix’s time has not been going very well in the first two weeks of the tournament. However, Week 3 has been pretty much perfect for them. They secured their first two victories in the tournament against Team HAQ and Red Esports halfway through the Regular Season games and have slingshotted up their position to sixth place in the table.

Yunaaaaaaaaa was the MVP in both of these wins. However, he gave all the credit for those wins to his coach Dany and Finding Hito, the new inclusions in the team, for their instant impacts. The victory against Team HAQ has been extra significant for Finding Hito since he was a former member of the team.

Selangor Red Giants had been on a winning streak in the regular season of the tournament until they faced defeat against RSG MY (1-2). Even though they won against defending champions TODAK (2-1), despite their commendable efforts, did not have an answer against RSG MY. Thus, after the conclusion of half of the Regular Season, Selangor Red Giants still stays on top of the table.

Elsewhere, Team HAQ faced defeat in both their MPL MY Season 12 week 3 games against RSG MY (0-2) and team Lunatix (0-2), making them slide down to the fifth position on the league table. With such results from both the Giants and Team HAQ, Team SMG becomes the only team in the Regular Season yet to lose a game.

The fan-favorite HomeBois returning to winning ways has been another highlight of MPL MY Season 12 Week 3.
