INDONESIA'S RRQ just released a roster reveal post for the upcoming MPL ID Season 13 and it seems the org is on the verge of finalizing their roster.
In their post, a silhouette can be seen below Schevenko "Skylar" Tendean, which could hint on the arrival of Filipino roamer, Tristan "Yawi" Cabrera.
In Season 12, Yawi was benched by ECHO PH despite being the cornerstone for the team's success back in the M4 World Championship and Season 11 of the MPL Philippines.
Sanford "SanFord" Vinuya even commented on the shift in playstyle from Yawi to Jaypee.
“Mas aggressive po yung comms namin kapag si Yawi [yung naglalaro],” Sanford told SPIN.ph. “Mahilig po siya sa mga pickoffs. Pero kapag si Jaypee, in-and-out lang po kami sa mga clash.”
Setsuna "Akosi Dogie" Ignacio even gave his thoughts on ECHO's decision on Yawi saying, "You can never blame ECHO for benching Yawi."
What Yawi brings to RRQ?
In case this rumor turns out to be true, the RRQ Kingdom could experience a House of Highlights-esque play given Yawi's aggressive playstyle.
And combine that with John "Irrad" Tuazon's and Skylar's similar approach and RRQ could burst and potentially surprise opponents, much like ECHO back in Season 9.
But besides introducing an all out playstyle, Yawi's arrival could suggest that Borris "Brusko" Parro wouldn't be RRQ's main roamer or it's also possible that the latter would alternate with Yawi as Brusko can be more of a calculated presence for the Kingdom.
