Season 8 of the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Professional League Middle East and North Africa (MPL MENA) has concluded with Team Falcons soaring to victory as the first team to qualify for the M7 World Championship (M7) in Indonesia. AXE MENA (previously Ultra Legends), the second placed team, qualify to the M7 Wild Card stage.
Team Falcons Secures first spot in M7 World Championship
The Grand Finals, held at the Mall of Egypt in Cairo, marked the league’s first-ever official event in Egypt and set a new milestone for Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) Esports’ global expansion.
The Grand Finals on 17 October welcomed more than 1,000 attendees, turning the venue into a hub of passion, pride, and competitive spirit. Fans arrived hours before the event, filling multiple levels of the mall to witness the summit clash between Team Falcons and AXE MENA. The energy was electric from start to finish as Team Falcons won 4-1 in the best-of-seven series to complete a perfect season—ten matches, zero defeats, not a single series lost. Their triumph was also sweet revenge as after falling short to Ultra Legends in last season’s Grand Finals.
