Aurora's survival came at the expense of Wildcard winners ULFHEDNAR, who become the second team to be eliminated from M6.

The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) M6 World Championship Swiss Stage's fourth day featured plenty of classic matches between some of the best-performing teams in the tournament. Fnatic ONIC PH and BloodThirstyKings threw haymakers against each other in a heated Advancement Match while Aurora Gaming and ULFHEDNAR fought for their tournament lives.

Here are the results of the fourth day of the M6 World Championship Swiss Stage:

The fourth day of the M6 World Championship started with a big elimination series between Aurora and ULFHEDNAR. Both teams had two disappointing losses in the first two rounds of the Swiss Stage, leading to this best-of-three Elimination Match in round three.

While the Filipino representatives had a not-so-stellar debut in M6, when it mattered the most, they were able to bounce back to avoid elimination. Jan Dominic “Domeng” Delmundo, with his signature Bruno and Moskov, was the player who stole the spotlight in the series against the Wildcard winners.

Bruno took over in game one to spearhead complete domination by Aurora using Chip. ULFHEDNAR, who relied on Pharsa and Granger's poke damage, got continually picked off by Domeng and his teammates' all-out strategy. In the second game, Moskov again took over with a superb set-up by Vexana and Tigreal. Ultimately, ULFHEDNAR didn't find the answer for Domeng and was eliminated from M6.

The second series of the day pitted Team Vamos against CFU Gaming in a middle seed match. While most predicted the Malaysian squad to continue their momentum after a big win in their previous match, but instead it turned into a showcase for CFU Gaming's Khoun “Xingg” Amey with Nolan. The Gold Laner dismantled Team Vamos with a flawless performance, giving CFU Gaming the win within 14 minutes.

The third series of the day saw reigning MLBB Continental Championships (MCC) champions Team Spirit against MLBB Professional League (MPL) Indonesia champions Team Liquid ID

Expectations were high for this series, as Team Spirit has had a great showing in the tournament so far. On the other hand, Team Liquid ID have the chance to continue its momentum after winning against KeepBest Gaming in their second match. However, Team Spirit made quick work of the Indonesian representatives to continue their impressive showing and set themselves up for an Advancement Match.

The final series for the day was a qualification match between BloodThirstyKings and Fnatic ONIC PH, with both teams looking to qualify for the next stage. A loss in this series can hinder their continued stay in the tournament, as their next series will put them into a confrontation against another hungry competitor.

Fnatic ONIC PH, as expected, proved why they have been the best team in the tournament so far with a 2-1 victory over BloodThirstyKings. While it took 20 minutes for the champion of MPL Philippines to end the first game, it was almost no contest when Duane “Kelra” Pillas' Layla was fed 17 minutes in. His untouchable performance granted him the MVP nod in game one.

BloodThirstyKings showed why they were no slouches either as they took a game from arguably the biggest favourites in M6 so far. Again, Michael “MobaZane” Cosgun's Fredrinn was the difference maker, enabling Ziameth-Jei "ZIA" Caluya's Bruno to take over in the late game.

The decider wasn't a classic slugfest as everybody hoped, as Fnatic ONIC PH's draft allowed them to comfortably take the 2-1 series victory in just 12 minutes of action, with Kelra's Irithel giving him his second MVP award of the series.

The M6 World Championship continues with day five of the Swiss Stage. Three teams will be eliminated, while three others will join Fnatic ONIC PH and RRQ Hoshi in the Knockout Stage. Here are the draws for the fifth day of the Swiss Stage:

  • High Seeds (2-1): 
    • CFU Gaming Vs Team Spirit
    • Falcon Esports Vs BloodThirstyKings
    • Twisted Minds Vs NIP Flash
  • Low Seeds (1-2): 
    • Team Vamos Vs S2G Esports
    • KeepBest Gaming Vs Selangor Red Giants
    • Aurora Gaming Vs Team Liquid ID

Who will grab qualification, and who will be eliminated on the fifth day of the M6 World Championship Swiss Stage?
