RRQ Finishes Sixth in APAC South
RRQ’s journey in the ALGS 2026 Split 1 Pro League – APAC South ended with a strong and well-earned result. In the final Regular Season standings, RRQ collected 94 points and finished in sixth place.
Above RRQ were several powerful teams, including Wolves Esports, S8UL Esports, VK Gaming, Pork Xiaolongbao Xpert, and Deep Cross Gaming. Behind RRQ were also notable names such as HAVOC, Gen.G Esports, and Dogred.
Here is RRQ’s position in the final standings:
| Rank | Team | Points |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Wolves Esports | 141 |
| 2 | S8UL Esports | 127 |
| 3 | VK Gaming | 110 |
| 4 | Pork Xiaolongbao Xpert | 109 |
| 5 | Deep Cross Gaming | 99 |
| 6 | RRQ | 94 |
| 7 | HAVOC | 93 |
| 8 | Gen.G Esports | 90 |
| 9 | Dogred | 82 |
RRQ also earned US$6,000 from this achievement, along with 630 CS Points. But of course, the biggest reward was not only the prize money. The ticket to the ALGS: 2026 Split 1 Playoffs is what made this journey far more meaningful.
A Long, Demanding Format That Rewards Consistency
The ALGS 2026 Split 1 Pro League – APAC South was not a tournament that could be conquered through one good day alone. Its format was long, demanding, and built to test consistency.
A total of 30 teams were divided into three groups, with 10 teams in each group. They competed in a Triple Round-Robin format, meaning each group faced the other groups three times.
Each Match Series consisted of six games, and every team played six Match Series throughout the Regular Season. That means each team had to compete across 36 games during the split. From every series, teams earned Pro League Points, which contributed to the overall standings.
After the Triple Round-Robin stage, the top 20 teams advanced to the Regional Final. In this phase, the format changed to Match Point: the first team to reach 50 points and then secure a first-place finish in a following match would be crowned the winner.
That meant teams did not only have to collect points consistently. They also had to prove they could close the tournament when the pressure was at its highest.
In short, this format was long, brutal, and probably enough to make every standings calculator beg for mercy.
RRQ’s Road to the Split 1 Playoffs
The Regular Season standings were calculated from total Pro League Points earned across two main phases: the Triple Round-Robin stage and the Regional Final.
From these final standings, qualification to the ALGS: 2026 Split 1 Playoffs was determined. The Regional Final winner earned a direct slot, while the highest-ranked teams in the standings that had not already qualified also secured their places.
RRQ qualified through the final standings. With 94 points, RRQ locked in sixth place and confirmed their spot at the Split 1 Playoffs.
This result proves that RRQ did not simply rely on occasional flashes of brilliance. They were able to maintain their performance across the season. In a format like ALGS, consistency is everything. One bad game can still be recovered, but one bad split can send a team straight into “see you next season” territory.
RRQ avoided that fate.
Another RRQ Division Heads to Esports World Cup 2026
The qualification of RRQ’s Apex Legends division makes RRQ’s journey to the Esports World Cup 2026 even stronger. Several RRQ divisions have already secured their places on international stages this year, and now Apex Legends joins that list.
For RRQ, this is not only about qualifying for another major tournament. It is a sign that the organization continues to build competitive strength across multiple games, not just within one scene.
Apex Legends itself is one of the most demanding esports titles, both mechanically and strategically. Every rotation, every fight, every zone decision, and every second spent choosing whether to engage or retreat can decide a team’s survival.
That is why RRQ’s success in reaching the Split 1 Playoffs from APAC South is an achievement worth celebrating.

Time to Look Ahead to the World Stage
With a ticket to the ALGS: 2026 Split 1 Playoffs secured, RRQ now prepares for an even greater challenge at the Esports World Cup 2026.
The opponents ahead will not be ordinary teams. The Split 1 Playoffs will bring together the best teams from multiple regions, with a higher level of competition and far greater pressure.
But RRQ has already proven one thing: they deserve to be there.
From the intense battle in APAC South, through the long Pro League format, to securing sixth place in the final standings, RRQ Apex Legends has written an important achievement for the Kingdom.
Another RRQ division is heading to EWC 2026.
And once again, the Kingdom has another reason to set the match-day alarm.
