ONIC Philippines has selected assassin hero Joy for their M6 champion skin, while Finals MVP Kelra will work on co-designing Beatrix.
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) world champion ONIC Philippines has selected the assassin hero Joy for their M6 skin, while Finals MVP Grant "Kelra" Pillas will work on co-designing a skin for marksman hero Beatrix.
Selecting a hero for a custom skin is one of the prizes for the champion team of the M-series. The M6 skins are expected to launch by September 2025.
"Joy herself almost represents ONIC Philippines by her skills and color. Joy is one of K1ngkong's signature heroes and as I remember, when ONIC Philippines picked Joy, the crowd went crazy," said ONIC Esports Vice President for Esports Franchise Paul "Coach Yeb" Miranda.
The Super Family chose Joy to celebrate jungler Cyric "K1ngkong" Perez's performance at M6. His plays, reflexes, and clutch moments inspired the concept behind its skin, which would be revealed later this year.
ONIC picked Joy eight times, winning with a record of 7-1.
Meanwhile, Finals MVP Kelra picked marksman Beatrix.
"I feel happy and honored to co-design Beatrix. The FMVP skin that I will work on will help signify my legacy in MLBB Esports. I chose her because as a gold laner, I embody some of her attributes, like her ability to adapt and be precise when shooting the enemies," said Kelra.
ONIC selected Beatrix three times with a record of 2-1.
Both heroes were used in Game 4 of the Grand Finals against Indonesia's Team Liquid. ONIC grabbed the 3-1 edge in 10 minutes and 34 seconds of play.
Previous M-series champion skins featured Harith (EVOS Legends), Lancelot (Bren Esports), Estes (Blacklist International), Chou (ECHO Philippines), and Brody (AP.Bren).
AP.Bren was also the first to pick a Finals MVP skin with Paquito.
