After leaving fans on edge with back-to-back losses in Week 4, RRQ finally showed their championship mentality again in Week 5 of the Indonesia Kings Laga (IKL) Fall 2025. Two narrow victories kept the Kings firmly at the top of Group Tyrant. But the story is far from over—Week 6 looms as their biggest test yet.

From a Perfect Start to Week 4 Stumbles
RRQ’s regular season journey so far has been nothing short of a roller coaster. The opening three weeks were flawless: a clean sweep of seven straight wins. But then came Week 4—the first taste of defeat.
RRQ’s journey so far:
Week 1
- Aug 23: RRQ vs Mahadewa – 2-1
- Aug 24: RRQ vs ONIC – 2-0
Week 2
- Aug 29: RRQ vs Vesakha Esports – 2-1
- Aug 30: RRQ vs Alter Ego – 2-0
- Aug 31: RRQ vs ONIC – 2-0
Week 3
- Sep 5: RRQ vs Alter Ego – 2-1
- Sep 6: RRQ vs Mahadewa – 2-0
Week 4
- Sep 12: RRQ vs Vesakha Esports – 1-2 (loss)
- Sep 14: RRQ vs Bigetron – 0-2 (loss)
Week 5
- Sep 19: RRQ vs Revemoin Esports – 2-1
- Sep 20: RRQ vs Talon – 2-1
With these results, RRQ now sits at 9-2—still the King of Group Tyrant, but the pressure is mounting. Vesakha Esports trails closely behind, ready to pounce at the first slip.
Week 5: Wins, But Hard-Fought
The two victories in Week 5 felt more like “survival mode” than dominance. Against Revemoin and Talon, RRQ faced real struggles, but managed to close out both series 2-1. Narrow wins, yes—but what mattered most was getting back on track after a worrying two-game skid.
Week 6: A Defining Test Against Kagendra & Dominator
The real challenge comes next. RRQ is set to face Kagendra (Sep 19)—the on-fire leader of Group Overlord—and Dominator Esports (Sep 20), currently third in Overlord and a Grand Finalist alongside Kagendra last season.
These are no ordinary opponents. Kagendra sits atop their group with commanding form, while Dominator carries the pedigree of a team that excelled in Spring 2025. For RRQ, Week 6 could define whether they are true title contenders—or merely kings of their own group.
Still the King, But Consistency is Key
For now, RRQ remains “King of Group Tyrant.” But with a grueling regular season format and the competition heating up, one or two more slip-ups could immediately put their position in jeopardy. Fans will be hoping Lemon and the squad can show sharper execution and steadier form in Week 6—leaving no room for drama.
One thing is certain: all eyes remain locked on the Kings. Will RRQ conquer two of last season’s finalists and prove they are worthy of the crown—or will cracks reappear under pressure? The answer lies just ahead.
