David “Flaptzy” Canon continued to cement his legacy as one of the greatest ever to play in the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Esports scene after being the very first recipient of the M-series Finals Most Valuable Player in-game skin.

MOONTON, along with the members of the M5 World Champion Falcons AP.Bren, officially unveiled the ‘Fist of Glory’ skin of Paquito – a hero which Flaptzy prominently utilized during their title run in the M5.

“Tingin ko isa to sa mga magpapaalala ng legacy ko sa larong 'to,” said Flaptzy.

“Nakakaproud po tuwing may gagamit ng skin ni Paquito, maaalala po nila na si FlapTzy ng APBren ang unang nagkaroon ng Finals MVP skin sa Mobile Legends: Bang Bang,” he added.

Aside from the new Paquito skin, the M5 champion skin of Falcons AP.Bren for the hero Brody was also shown for the first time in the event.

Both skins were designed wearing AP.Bren’s signature black and yellow varsity jacket while the Brody skin has honeycomb designs, seemingly a nod to the team’s fan base referred to as ‘the Bees’.

It is now the second hero skin themed with the AP.Bren franchise with the M2 champion skin of Lancelot being the first one when the team first won the world title in 2021.

“This initiative from MOONTON Games highlights the continued success of our brand and the hard work our team has done to strive for sustained excellence in Esports,” said Falcons APBren Chief Operating Officer Jab Escutin.

Aside from Brody and Lancelot, two other M-series world champion skins were inspired by Philippine teams with support hero Estes wearing the M3 champion skin for Blacklist International and the fighter Chou donning the M4 champion skin for then-ECHO, now Team Liquid PH.
