In the wake of a groundbreaking acquisition earlier this year, securing Filipino powerhouse Tristan “Yawi” Cabrera, Aura Fire has undergone a remarkable transformation, emerging as a leading contender in the highly anticipated MLBB Pro League Indonesia Season 13. And Yawi’s magnetic presence has undoubtedly left his peers in awe, with his superstar aura casting a spell of admiration, including his young teammate and rising star, Gugun “Gugun” Pratama.
Aside from Yawi, Gugun has also emerged as one of the standout players on the Aura team, capturing the attention of MPL ID S13 viewers with his impressive performance as a jungler thus far. According to Liquipedia’s records, MPL ID S13 marks the 16-year-old player’s first top-tier MLBB competition after he left TWE Bossque last year.
Unfazed by the daunting prospect of facing seasoned veterans, Gugun exudes a calm confidence on the battlefield, executing his maneuvers with surgical precision. His consistent brilliance has been duly recognized, earning him accolades and the coveted MVP title in the climactic moments of week 5.
Nevertheless, Gugun has modestly attributed Aura’s recent improvement to Yawi’s crucial role as the team’s shot caller, boosting confidence in crucial decisions during matches. During our interview session at MPL ID, Gugun expressed his admiration for the Filipino MLBB star and thanked him for sharing valuable insights.
“I’m so happy to be able to play alongside a world champion like Yawi. I’ve seen his gameplay in M4 and I thought he’s one of the best in his position,” he said. “He has improved our tactics since week 2 and here we are now. I’ve learned a lot from him. His understanding of the game and tactical execution are impressive. He’s our superstar!”
Aura Fire is poised to continue its winning streak as the team faces RRQ Hoshi in the first matchday of week 6, scheduled to begin tomorrow afternoon (4/26). Facing an RRQ team currently experiencing a decline in performance, MPL ID viewers predict a decisive victory that will propel the Dragon to the top of the standings.
