But continuous pick-offs on MobaZane&#x27;s Natan, topped by remarkable synergy between Kairi&#x27;s Paquito and Hatred&#x27;s Pharsa, helped Onic PH draw first blood. </p><p>Onic PH switched things up in Game 2, putting Mark Christian &quot;Markyyyyy&quot; Etcobañez on the Pharsa after Hatred played it in Game 1. </p><p>The Filipino squad contained Fwydchicken&#x27;s Aldous to start Game 2, giving the gold-laner a hard time taking his stacks. With BTK practically operating on a four-man team with the lack of a power spike for Aldous, Onic PH used this to their advantage to pummel the North American squad and reach match point. </p><p>Onic PH were able to contain MobaZane to no kills, 4 deaths, and just three assists in Game 3, while Allen Jedric &quot;Baloyskie&quot; Baloy and Gerald &quot;Dlarskie&quot; Trinchera helped clear the map for Kairi to draw kill after kill with his Hayabusa. </p><p>Onic PH have only fallen once throughout the entire world championship campaign— in their Group B match against Onic Indonesia. They now have a 9-0 record in the playoffs. </p><p>They face whoever wins the lower bracket finals, which will commence at 7 p.m. Saturday. </p><div><strong>ONIC PH: </strong></div><ul>	<li>COACH: Paul Denver &quot;Coach Yeb&quot; Miranda</li>	<li>Allen Jedric &quot;Baloyskie&quot; Baloy (captain) </li>	<li>Kairi &quot;Kairi&quot; Rayosdelsol</li>	<li>Gerald &quot;Dlarskie&quot; Trinchera</li>	<li>Karl Mico &quot;Micophobia&quot; Tarala</li>	<li>Mark Christian &quot;Markyyyyy&quot; Etcobañez</li>	<li>Jaylord &quot;Hatred&quot; Gonzales</li>	<li>Paul Ian &quot;Beemo&quot; Sergio</li>	<li>Nowee &quot;Ryota&quot; Cabailo</li></ul>
