MANILA - Two days after MPL Singapore wrapped their eighth season with NIP Flash repeat champions, the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang community received shockwaves over a series of tweets concerning league outfit Bleed Esports and their imports Tuesday night.
Esports personality Sean "Hades" Go posted on his X (formerly Twitter) profile regarding the situation of their Filipino imports.
Suddenly the upper management guys of @ggBleed who love to parade their roles have just decided to leave their PH ML imports stranded at the bootcamp with no flight tickets back and 0 contact. The COO has left their gc and they have nobody to help them. Wp guys

"After careful consideration, Riot Games has made the decision to remove Bleed Esports’ from the VALORANT Champions Tour and VCT Pacific. Bleed Esports was terminated due to its failure to comply with critical reporting requirements and other key obligations under the Team Participation Agreement (TPA). Removal of a team from the Riot Games esports ecosystem is not something we take lightly. However, due to persistent operational failures of the team, Bleed Esports will no longer participate in VCT Pacific to protect the best interest of the players and the league. The individual players affected were informed of the decision as soon as it was made to allow them to explore other opportunities as quickly as possible," Riot Games said in a statement last October 4.
They have also disbanded their Dota 2 roster, with Zhou "Emo" Yi being the last one to leave last September.
More allegations surfaced regarding the esports organization, with Goh En Wei Mervyn being on the receiving end as the Bleed CEO was missing for several days.
