Who is BTK?
BTK made a name for itself with a standout performance at the MLBB M3 World Championship in 2021. The team pushed powerhouse Blacklist International to the lower bracket finals, giving them an international reputation. Afterward, the squad frequently qualifies for international events, albeit sometimes on a different team. Eventually, the squad decided to revive the BTK banner.
The team was set to participate in the MSC 2025 at EWC under the teamS8UL Esports. However, due to Hoon and Mobazane violating a rule that prohibits them from competing in other MOBA titles, they are disqualified from the event.
Due to the disqualification, the runner-up of NACT Spring 2025, Area 77, takes the slot. With that said, it is not confirmed if this was the reason for the transition.
