The playoff picture is starting to clear as Aurora Gaming officially becomes the first team to clinch a coveted spot in the next stage of the MLBB NEXT tournament. After a stellar performance throughout the Regular Season, the squad has secured their berth ahead of the competition, making them the clear benchmark for consistency and skill. The "Playoffs Secured" announcement is a well-deserved one for a team that has been dominant from the start.
Their current record, as of the close of Week 6 on September 29, 2025, stands at an impressive 9 Match Wins and 1 Match Loss, giving them a total of 9 Match Points. Furthermore, they boast a formidable Net Game Win of +10 (18 Game Wins - 8 Game Losses), which helps solidify their top-of-the-table position.
The Race Heats Up: Who's Next?
With Aurora Gaming safely through, the pressure now intensifies on the rest of the field. Only a limited number of spots remain, and the top teams are neck-and-neck as the season approaches its final weeks. The big question shifts to who will join the league leaders in the postseason.
Team Liquid PH and ONIC PH are currently in prime position to be the next two teams to secure their spots, sitting on 7 and 6 Match Points, respectively. They have maintained a healthy lead over the mid-table, but any slip-up could still prove costly in the coming weeks.
Mid-Table Mayhem
The real drama lies in the middle of the leaderboard. A major logjam exists between four teams desperately fighting to stay above the elimination zone. Smart Omega and Twisted Minds PH are currently tied on 5 Match Points with a -1 Net Game Win, creating a near-even struggle for positioning. Trailing close behind are TNC Pro Team and AP Bren, both on 4 Match Points. TNC Pro Team sits at a -3 Net Game Win, while AP Bren is at -6, indicating a more challenging path forward for the defending champions.
With Match Points so close, every game win—which contributes to the critical Net Game Win tiebreaker—is absolutely crucial. As the season progresses, expect every match to be a high-stakes, must-watch affair as these teams claw their way toward the remaining Playoff berths. Team Falcons, unfortunately, have a tough road ahead, currently sitting at the bottom with only 2 Match Points.
