As Week 8 of MPL ID Season 16 had come to a close, RRQ Hoshi had still been standing dangerously close to the edge. Their hopes of making it to the playoffs had not been completely gone, but their position at seventh place had made fans increasingly anxious. Although their victory against DEWA United Esports had finally ended a painful seven-match losing streak, “The King” had not been safe yet from the threat of elimination.

This brief resurgence had come largely thanks to the return of Ferxiic to the RRQ roster. The jungler, who had previously worn the EVOS jersey, had been called back to the castle to help pull the team out of their slump. In such a desperate moment, a mechanically gifted and aggressive player like Ferxiic had provided the spark RRQ had desperately needed in the middle of the season.

However, their journey had not been over yet. Even though RRQ had managed to stop their losing streak, the battle for a playoff spot had remained fierce. They had needed to win both of their remaining matches against Team Liquid ID (TLID) and NAVI to secure the final ticket to NICE PIK2. One single mistake could have created a bitter chapter in history—RRQ missing the MPL ID playoffs for the first time ever.

Interestingly, RRQ’s hope had not come solely from within the team but also from outside—specifically, from the man who had once been the face of their golden era: Alberttt.

Alberttt Has Been the Unexpected Key in Bloody Week

EVOS Legends, now led by Alberttt in the jungle, have been scheduled to play two crucial matches in Week 9—against NAVI and DEWA United. These are not just ordinary opponents; they are RRQ’s direct rivals in the fight for the last playoff spots. That means every victory Alberttt and EVOS have earned in those games could indirectly open a path for RRQ to survive.

It has almost felt like destiny at the end of the regular season. Alberttt, who had once created so many heroic moments with RRQ, has had the chance to help his former team from the opposite side of the battlefield. For the fans, it’s been like watching a former king defending his old kingdom from beyond its walls.

Even though EVOS have already secured their playoff spot, they have not had the luxury to relax. Alberttt and his teammates have still been fighting for a top-three finish—currently occupied by Alter Ego—which would give them an easier playoff bracket. Their motivation to win has remained as fierce as ever.

RRQ Have Needed to Decide Their Own Fate

Regardless of potential “help” from Alberttt and EVOS, RRQ have still held their destiny in their own hands. Two clean victories against TLID and NAVI have been absolutely crucial. With competition getting tighter each week, RRQ’s drafting, macro play, and in-game synergy have had to reach their peak in this Bloody Week.

The management have already made several big adjustments: changing junglers, tweaking strategies, and testing different drafts. Now everything has depended on how Ferxiic and the rest of the team have been able to execute those plans inside the Land of Dawn.

From Legendary Moments to a Mission of Redemption

Alberttt’s name has been forever etched into RRQ’s legacy. Fans still remember vividly how he had defended the base alone against Alter Ego in the Grand Final of MPL ID Season 6—a moment that turned him from rookie to legend. Years later, Alberttt has stood on the opposing side, yet ironically, he could become the one who determines RRQ’s fate once again.

Meanwhile, Ferxiic—now wearing the RRQ crown—has carried a heavy responsibility. His comeback has not just been about nostalgia, but about redemption. If both Alberttt and Ferxiic have played their parts perfectly—Alberttt with EVOS and Ferxiic with RRQ—then MPL ID Season 16 might witness one of the most poetic storylines in its history: two former teammates on opposing sides becoming the reasons RRQ Hoshi survive Bloody Week.

The Final Chapter of Bloody Week

MPL ID S16 Bloody Week 9 has shaped up to be the most emotional chapter of RRQ Hoshi’s journey this season. On one hand, Ferxiic has led the charge for a desperate comeback; on the other, Alberttt with EVOS has unknowingly held the power to influence his former team’s playoff chances.

No matter how the story has ended, one thing has remained certain—this Bloody Week has never just been about who wins or loses. It has been about how two names, Ferxiic and Alberttt, have proven that the spirit of RRQ’s legacy has never truly faded.
