According to Z4pnu, Execration is currently in talks with another organization to buyout their roster for the upcoming MPL PH Season 8, which will adopt a franchise-based model.
“Once the talks with the big bosses are over, we will have a new team. It’s sad to say this, but Exeshot is no more,” he said.

Execration’s Legacy in MPL PH
Execration has been in the league since season two, where they acquired the roster of OBS Gaming.
Despite consistent podium finishes, Execration wasn’t able to grab the MPL trophy for the last six seasons, leading to numerous roster changes.
The closest season they came to the championship was this MPL PH Season 7 when they faced Blacklist International in the grand final. After Execration led the series 3-, Blacklist International did the unthinkable, reverse sweeping them 4-3 for the MPL PH title.
Execration ended up in a rematch with the Tier One-backed squad at the MSC 2021 grand final. This time, it was Execration who dominated the grand final showdown with a 4-1 beatdown, completing their revenge.
