In the pursuit of regaining its former glory in the Mobile Legends: Bang Bang Professional League (MPL) Indonesia (ID) Season 13, RRQ Indonesia has undergone significant changes, marked by the recent acquisition of two Filipino import players. This strategic move, however, comes at the cost of parting ways with the esteemed Burmese player Min "Naomi" Ko, recognized as one of Myanmar's most talented players.
The departure of Naomi could be attributed to the entrance of the Filipino roamer, Borris "Brusko" Parro, a seasoned player with previous ties to Minana EVOS. The infusion of Brusko into the roster signals RRQ's commitment to building a dynamic and internationally diverse team.
RRQ officially let go of Myanmar’s esteemed roamer Naomi
Through a YouTube video, RRQ officially announced the release of Naomi from its MLBB roster.
“The presence of the figure Min Ko, or what we usually know as Naomi, gave Team RRQ Mobile Legends its own color in the last MPL Season 12. Franco and Khufra's neat play succeeded in bringing the RRQ Team to the Upper Bracket, and left a special impression in the hearts of the Kingdom. However, Naomi's journey to defend Team RRQ must end today. Thank you for the contribution you have made, good luck with the plans you make in the future. Thank you Naomi!” captioned the video.
Naomi played a significant part in RRQ’s journey in the MPL ID Season 12. The team made it to the playoffs stage. Still, it failed to impress the fans after losing two series, one against Geek Fam in the upper bracket and another against Bigetron Alpha in the Lower Bracket, resulting in an early exit.
Naomi's impact on RRQ's trajectory during MPL ID Season 12 was undeniable. His pivotal role was particularly evident as the team advanced to the playoffs stage. Despite this achievement, the overall performance left fans wanting for more, as RRQ faltered in two crucial series. The team faced defeats against Geek Fam in the upper bracket and Bigetron Alpha in the lower bracket, leading to an untimely exit from the competition.
The anticipation surrounding RRQ's playoff journey met with disappointment, marking a bittersweet conclusion to a season that held great promise.
During the off-season, the team has decided to acquire two Filipino imports for its MLBB roster. With this revamped lineup, featuring skilled players from the Philippines, RRQ sets its sights on reclaiming the kingdom it once held in the MPL Season 13.
