He joined in his first MLBB tournament in 2019 and later joined more competitions in his home province of Tarlac.[3] His mother was initially skeptical of his acivities in gaming. At age 16, Soriano ran away from his home to Manila to pursue a career in esports.[4]

Blacklist International

Oheb joined Blacklist International in 2020 and took up the role of Gold Laner.[2][6] Blacklist was initially skeptical of hiring Oheb, but coach Dexstar Alaba vouched for his inclusion.[3]

He had his rookie season in the MPL Philippines in Season 7 in 2021, where Blacklist won their first local title.[4][7]

Oheb became known as part of the trio dubbed by fans as “MV3” with Salic “Hadji” Imam and Edward “Edward” Dapadap in Season 8 later that year.[8] He also began developing a “bad boy” reputation.[9] The player was fined and suspended for two games mid-season for flashing the middle finger during a match for which he immediately apologized for.[10][11]

Blacklist disbanded at the start of 2025 leaving Oheb without a team.[9] He won a total of three MPL Philippines with Blacklist.[13]

Team Liquid PH

Oheb initially considered following his old teammates after Blacklist disbanded. But was advised by his teammates and his former coach to go beyond his “comfort zone”. He approached Blacklist’s rival Team Liquid PH and pledged the management he would be abandoning his “immaturity”.[9] By February 2025, Team Liquid has signed Oheb.[13][14]

On March 9, Oheb announced his taking a break from professional esports.[20]
