JAKARTA, Indonesia (UPDATED) -- Echo Philippines on Saturday pocketed the last Grand Finals slot in the M4 World Championships after giving last surviving host team RRQ Hoshi a 3-1 beating at the Tennis Indoor Senayan in Jakarta, Indonesia.

This will be Echo's first Grand Finals appearance on the world stage, and Karl "KarlTzy" Nepomuceno's second after he clinched the title with Bren Esports in Singapore in early 2021.

The San-San duo in Sanford "Sanford" Vinuya and Alston "Sanji" Pabico put up a clinic on the world stage as Echo toppled the Indonesian titans.

Sanford had a maniac in Game 4 with his Lapu-Lapu, as Echo bucked a slow start en rout to the match-winning round.

After the succession of kills by Sanford, Echo never looked back and went on a rampage towards the final minutes of the match.

Sanji had at least 5 kills in all of the matches Echo won against RRQ Hoshi.

RRQ bagged their lone match in Game 2 with star jungler Albert "Alberttt" Iskandar bagging a flawless game with his Karina.

Echo Philippines will face Blacklist International, who are on a quest to become the first back-to-back Mobile Legends: Bang Bang world champions, on January 15.
