This list highlights the ten Mobile Legends: Bang Bang pro players who have earned the most money, and explains why Team Liquid PH dominates the top spots.
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang has become much more than just a mobile game; it’s now a major global esports competition. This has created real career opportunities for talented players. Over time, certain players have become well-known, not only for their gaming abilities but also for the large amounts of money they’ve won in tournaments.
Now, let’s explore the ten Mobile Legends: Bang Bang players who have earned the most money and the tournaments where they likely won the biggest prizes.
List of the highest-paid MLBB players
It’s remarkable that all five players from Team Liquid PH are among the top 10 highest-earning Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) pros. This is largely due to their incredible success in 2025, where they won every major tournament they entered. Their victory at the MSC 2025 at EWC, and the $1 million prize that came with it, was a particularly significant factor.
| Rank | Player | Earnings (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Karl “KarlTzy” Nepomuceno | $415,072 |
| 2 | Muhammad Haqqullah “Sekys” Ahmad Shahrul Zaman | $387,728 |
| 3 | Kiel “Oheb” Soriano | $383,766 |
| 4 | Sanford “Sanford” Vinuya | $369,976 |
| 5 | Jaypee “Jaypee” Dela Cruz | $364,531 |
| 6 | Muhammad “Yums” Suhairi | $364,506 |
| 7 | Angelo “Pheww” Arcangel | $363,522 |
| 8 | Alston “Sanji” Pabico | $357,589 |
| 9 | David “FlapTzy” Canon | $350,439 |
| 10 | Hazziq “Stormie” Rizwan | $347,870 |
The Philippines is the strongest region
The Philippines is widely considered the strongest country in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) esports. The MPL Philippines’ slogan, “Lakas ng Pinas” (The Strength of the Philippines), is definitely justified. Looking at earnings confirms this – seventy percent of the top 10 highest-paid MLBB pro players are from the Philippines.
All five players from Team Liquid PH made the list. KarTzy, widely considered the best Mobile Legends: Bang Bang player ever, ranks first with over $415,072 in career earnings, with more than half of that coming from his performance in 2025. In addition to KarTzy, two players from Team Falcons PH also appear: Pheww at number 7 and FlapTzy at number 9.
Malaysia is on the rise
The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) scene in this region is thriving, with players achieving both skill and financial success. Malaysia’s top team, SRG.OG, boasts three players among the highest earners: Sekys ranks second with $387,728 in total winnings, Yums is sixth with $364,506, and Stormie rounds out the top ten with $347,870.
It’s notable that these players haven’t yet won a major MLBB esports world championship, known as an M-series event. Despite this, SRG.OG has a strong domestic record, having won the MPL Malaysia championship four times. They also previously claimed victory at the MSC 2024 event, part of the EWC, but were later surpassed by Team Liquid PH in the following year.
Where’s Indonesia, the heart of MLBB Esports?
Indonesian Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) teams haven’t been performing as well lately. This is compounded by the fact that their top players haven’t had much success on the international stage, like at the EWC. Gilang “SANZ” is the highest-earning player from the region, with $288,439 in total earnings, which places him 16th globally. A significant portion of his income – 35% – came from competitions in 2023.
Conclusion
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) offers a ton of competitive opportunities for players. Besides official tournaments like the MPL, MDL, MSC, and M-series, there are also many third-party events like the Snapdragon Pro Series and IESF competitions. Right now is a fantastic time to be a professional or even an amateur MLBB player, with so many chances to compete and make a name for yourself.
Okay, so the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang EWC in 2025 is looking huge for pro players. Seriously, the prize money is going to be better than even the M-series World Championships, which is usually the biggest event of the year! If my team is in the Club Championship, this means winning the mid-season tournament could massively boost our total earnings. The pressure is definitely on, but the potential rewards are insane!
