RRQ Khezcute Says His Loss Could Be a Blessing in Disguise

RRQ Hoshi’s head coach, Alfi “Khezcute” Nelphyana, recently stated that he remains unfazed by the team’s unexpected loss to Bigetron Esports during MPL ID Season 15 last Sunday (20/04).

In the final match of Week 4, RRQ was heavily favored to dominate Bigetron decisively. However, predictions were overturned when The Indonesian Kings suffered a heavy 0-2 defeat against The Red Robots.

The defeat was not enough to derail them from the top spot, but the RRQ Kingdom fanbase were visibly frustrated, as their attempt to maintain a long win streak was cut prematurely. Prior to facing Bigetron, RRQ had secured six consecutive wins across six matches.

Khezcute, however, viewed the defeat as a necessary wake-up call for his team to avoid complacency and stay vigilant against all opponents. In a post-match interview with MPL ID, he expressed concern over the team’s mentality, fearing that huge victories might breed arrogance.

“(Losing) means nothing serious to me. Personally, I think this loss is a good reminder to keep us grounded. There’s a lot to learn, as we now understand the mapping and playstyles of other teams better,” he explained.”

RRQ will return to the arena on the second day of Week 5 this Saturday (26/04) versus Dewa Esports. Regardless of the outcome, they are guaranteed to enter the mid-season break as league leaders.
