Players spamming the recall–or popularly known as TP (teleport)–button after outplaying the enemy or just straight up taunting them have been a common sight not just in the MPL Philippines but also in other Mobile Legends: Bang Bang leagues.
While some perceive it as a bad behavior or even an unprofessional manner in a professional setup, others see some advantage in doing the “TP-TP” shenanigans.
Take coach Tony “Ynot” Senedrin of Smart Omega and two-time MPL champion tactician Michael Angelo “Arcadia” Bocado of Aura PH for examples.

Blacklist International was on the verge of suffering its first defeat in the MPL Philippines Season 7 when it battled the strong league rookie Work Auster Force last Sunday, April 18.
However, Work seemed to have forgotten that in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, and in other multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) esports titles, taking the objectives is everything.
Work was already way ahead when Daniel “Chuuu” Chu on his Claude scored a double kill on Johnmar “OhMyV33NUS” Villaluna’s Estes and Jayson “ESOS” Gerardo’s Rafaela, giving his squad a 7-1 kill score lead and a 2K gold advantage just six minutes into the deciding Game 3.
