Rex Regum Qeon has announced the addition of Cahya "Monyet" Nugraha to their roster. This move follows the recent benching of Saibani "fl1pzjder" Rahmad after the team failed to qualify for the Stage 1 playoffs.

Monyet, who was recently placed on Paper Rex's inactive roster following Wang "Jinggg" Jie's return, will now join RRQ.

Reuniting and Role Replacements

Monyet's signing brings him back together with Hagai "Lmemore" Tewuh and coach Ewok. The trio previously played together under the ONIC Esports banner in 2022, managing to reach the 2022 VCT APAC LCQ grand final, where they eventually fell to BOOM Esports.

Monyet, whose claim to fame is his skill as a controller, offers a different dynamic compared to Estrella, who previously played as an initiator for Dplus. Also bolstered by Monyet's experience at Paper Rex, arguably the best team in the Pacific Region, RRQ is optimistic about revitalizing their season.

Although they didn't qualify for either Masters event, their positive record in Stage 1 (3-2), including an unbelievable upset against Gen.G, means they are tied with Team Secret in sixth place in terms of championship points.

RRQ has quite the mountain to climb, if they want to see the international stage this season. Their next match will be in Stage 2, against DetonatioN FocusMe.

The current RRQ roster is:

Marthinus "Ewok" Jacobus Van Der Walt is serving as the Head coach.

With these changes, RRQ hopes to solidify their ranks and make a strong push towards VALORANT Champions 2024.

Team Vitality CEO Neo: "For Us to be a Global Leader Means Being a Contender at EWC"

Team Vitality remains one of the most influential and well-known esports organizations to date. The Paris-based org fields over 20 esports teams in various esports, though their immensely impressive results in Counter-Strike take center stage.  Being one of the organizations present at Esports World Cup 2026 in Paris, we managed to speak with Fabien "Neo" Devide, Co-Founder and CEO of the Hive, just after an interview with Mike McCabe, COO of the Esports World Cup Foundation, at the opening press conference at EWC. Neo provided a ton of insight into the organization's participation at this year's edition of EWC in Paris. He expressed his desire for the org to perform to the highest standards, but also highlighted that rivalry is key to grow the ecosystem. Additionally, Neo gave strong opinions on the growth of mobile esports following last year's Vitality's takeover and merger with Indonesian side Bigetron, stressing the need for innovation and following ideas in the east, as much as the west.
