Manjean’s journey has always been about growth, passion, and knowing when it’s time to level up. He didn’t actually start in MPL like a lot of people think. His first steps into the esports scene were in League of Legends, where he got his first real taste of casting and began learning the ropes of being on the mic. When the opportunity came to join MPL, it was one of those big moments where you just know everything is about to change. MPL wasn’t something you could do halfway; it required complete dedication. For most of his career, he poured all his energy into it. The long hours, the tournaments, the preparation—everything became his world.
It paid off. MPL was where Manjean truly made a name for himself. He became one of the most recognizable voices in the MLBB scene, the kind of caster who could turn a match into an unforgettable moment. It wasn’t just about the commentary; it was the way he connected with the audience, the energy he brought, and the personality that shone through no matter how intense the games got. Those years in MPL shaped him not just as a caster but as a professional. They gave him the stage to grow, to learn, and to prove that he belonged among the best. For that, he’ll always be grateful.
But if you know Manjean, you know he’s not the type to stay in one lane forever. He’s always been curious and always looking for ways to challenge himself. After nearly a decade with MPL, he reached a point where he wanted to see what else he could do. It wasn’t about walking away from esports; it was about expanding his horizons. He wanted to push the limits of his career and see how far his skills and creativity could take him.
Now he’s opened himself up to different types of content. He’s doing walking vlogs, getting back into streaming a variety of games, and experimenting with formats that let him express more of who he is outside the traditional shoutcaster role. It’s a refreshing change of pace and a brave move, stepping out of the comfort zone that MPL provided and exploring new spaces where the rules aren’t as defined.
Of course, he hasn’t left casting behind. He’s still actively casting ML tournaments, bringing the same energy and sharp insights that fans have loved for years. He might not be part of the MPL panel anymore, but when he’s on the mic, you know it’s going to be exciting. He’s showing that you can evolve and explore new things without letting go of the parts of your career that made you who you are.
What makes this next chapter so exciting is that you can tell Manjean is doing it on his own terms. He’s taking everything he learned from his time in MPL—the discipline, the storytelling, the ability to connect with audiences—and applying it to a much broader canvas. Whether he’s covering an esports match, walking through the city with a camera, or streaming a game completely different from MLBB, he’s still giving it the same heart and dedication that got him here in the first place.
There’s something inspiring about watching someone refuse to be boxed in by their own success. Manjean could have stayed in the MPL comfort zone and still been one of the most well-loved voices in the scene. Instead, he chose to take the risk and see what’s next. He’s always moving forward, always thinking about the bigger picture, and always ready to make the leap when the moment feels right.
Wherever this new chapter takes him, one thing’s for sure: Manjean’s story is still being written, and it’s going to be just as exciting as the matches he’s called over the years.
