Team Liquid, Onic retain core as MPL PH Season 16 looms
Team Liquid Philippines and Onic Philippines, two of the league's powerhouse squads, are sticking to what works as both teams have decided to keep their core intact for their looming campaign in the MPL Philippines Season 16. For its title defense, Team Liquid will once again lean on Karl "KarlTzy" Nepomuceno as the Cavalry aims to build on the momentum from winning it all at the MSC 2025. The multi-titled jungler will link up with gold laner Kiel "Oheb" Soriano, exp laner Sanford "Sanford" Vinuya, mid laner Alston "Sanji" Pabico, and veteran roamer Jaypee "Jaypee" Dela Cruz with head coach Rodel "Ar Sy" Cruz still calling the shots. Boasting a strong lineup, Team Liquid is on course to achieve the coveted 'Golden Road,' claiming every major Mobile Legends: Bang Bang title within a year. But Team Liquid isn't focused on that for now. "For me, 'yung sa Golden Road hindi namin finofocus-an kasi gaya ng nakasanayan namin sa Season 15, step by step lang kami every single game," Ar Sy said during the media day last week in Quezon City. "This coming MPL Season 16, same set-up pa rin kami. Mas gagalingan lang din namin and 'yung mga training namin gano'n pa rin, walang magbabago." Meanwhile, Onic is also featuring familiar faces when it begins its redemption tour. The reigning world champions will still be bannered by gold laner Duane "Kelra" Pillas, jungler Cyric "K1NGKONG" Prez, mid laner Frince "Super Frince" Ramirez, roamer Borris "Brusko" Parro, and exp laner Jann Kirk "Kirk" Guttierez. Onic, though, will welcome Nowee "Ryota" Macasa as one of its sixth men together with Jaylord "Hate" Gonzales. Onic will look to reclaim the MPL title after losing to Team Liquid in their grueling finals series back in Season 15. —JKC, GMA Integrated News

The Red Wheel at The Factory at Franklin Has a New Concert Series!
Share with your friends! Pinterest LinkedIn Email Flipboard Reddit Franklin is turning up the charm (and the volume) this summer with a new twist on live music. Say hello to The Red Wheel at The Factory, a songwriter series that's part concert, part history lesson, and entirely unforgettable. Hosted at The Factory at Franklin, this in-the-round showcase brings some of the region's most iconic songwriters straight into the spotlight and closer to your table than ever. Pin Think of it as Nashville's most talented musical minds, unfiltered and unplugged, telling the stories behind their hits … only instead of stadium lights and pyrotechnics, you'll find vintage-industrial vibes, tasty cheese boards, and a bourbon cocktail with your name on it. So, why the name The Red Wheel? It's a clever nod to The Factory's former life. Back in the day, the building cranked out Magic Chef appliances, including a signature red oven dial known for its precision. That same spirit of fine-tuned craftsmanship now lives on through this fun songwriting series. And forget nosebleed seats — we're talking an intimate venue here. There are only 200 coveted spots per show, and every one feels like you're in the front row. The Red Wheel's reimagined setup puts artists and audiences face-to-face in a cozy, conversational setting. Whether you're soaking in sweet bluegrass on a Thursday or getting your soul stirred by Sunday gospel, this is music at its most raw and real. Performances will run four days a week from June 13 through July 5. Each Thursday at 7 p.m., the spotlight turns to bluegrass, while Fridays and Saturdays feature two showtimes — 6 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. — highlighting a rich blend of country, folk, and Americana. Sundays offer a soulful close to the weekend with gospel performances beginning at 2 p.m. Oh, and while you're basking in musical genius, don't worry about missing the show while you grab a snack. Premium table service, curated nibbles from Greys Fine Cheeses, and pours from Nashville Barrel Co. ensure your senses are equally spoiled. Pin The inaugural roster is stacked. We're talking chart-toppers and tear-jerkers from the minds behind some of your favorite songs, like Rhett Akins (Blake Shelton's 'Boys' Round Here'), Carolyn Dawn Johnson (Keith Urban's 'Golden Road'), Tony Arata (Garth Brooks' 'The Dance'), and American Idol-winner Trent Harmon. And yes, you can expect surprise guests, too! Tickets are already on sale, and local heroes (including teachers, first responders, and military members) can also snag special discounts. Whether you're a die-hard music buff or just someone who enjoys a good tune and a great cocktail, The Red Wheel is your backstage pass. And in true Franklin fashion, it's wrapped in charm, served with cheese, and poured over ice. For tickets and more info, visit ********** Discover even more Southern stories worth sharing.
