New Season, New MVP Trophy!

As part of MPL SG's partnership with McDonald's Singapore, fans can look forward to a brand-new trophy design for Season 6's Most Valuable Player (MVP).

Drina said: "We’re off to a hot start – McDonald’s has commissioned a brand-new trophy for this season’s Playoffs Most Valuable Player. The trophy immortalises what ‘Winning Together’ truly means to us. This is just the beginning, so stay tuned for more!"

Kiran Gotur, Vice President, Hair Care APAC at Head & Shoulders, said: “Head & Shoulders is proud to be one of the key sponsors of MPL SG Season 6. Being one of the high profile esports tournaments organised in Singapore, we recognise the importance of confidence and concentration needed by the gamers. With regular use, Head & Shoulders is designed to 'wipe-out' scalp problems like visible dandruff and itch so our modern-day athletes can focus more on winning the game and winning in life.”

Ms Lynn Tan, Deputy CEO of OSIM International, said: “In collaboration with MPL SG, we hope to continuously enhance and elevate the calibre of Singapore's esports landscape. We strive to elevate gamers experience by improving their overall well-being with comfort and relaxation. The ground breaking uThrone V Gaming Massage Chairs come about as the global esports and gaming industry continues to grow rapidly, developing into a central form of entertainment for many young audiences around the world. Concurrently, we have noticed that chronic aches and pains have become an issue for younger and younger individuals over the last few years, due to prolonged periods of sitting at their desks for work or entertainment purposes. As OSIM advances with the evolving needs of our customers, we have always remained committed to developing products that seamlessly integrate into their lifestyles to empower them to lead healthier and happier lives.”
