Highlights of RRQ vs ONIC

Like other Regular Season matches, this time the Royal Derby will be held in a “best of 3” (BO3) format. This means that the team that scores 2 wins first will be the winner.

In the opening match, RRQ controlled the MPL Arena at home, while ONIC came as an away team. Even so, ONIC's presence brought the title of champion MSC 2023 making it more favored by many people, both the audience and the talent side.

Until the match ends, a maximum total of 3 matches can be forced by both teams. After about 2.5 hours, the two teams exchanged replies, finally this match succeeded in bringing out the winner! Here are the highlights:

RRQ vs ONIC First Match

Starting from the first match in the first match of the Royal Derby, ONIC performed brilliantly! They showed their MSC 2023 performance again at the MPL Arena venue tonight. Kiboy who got his hero power, Kufra, appeared so aggressive.

By using a core fighter-based hit meta, Kairi and his Paquito also managed to keep up with performance Kiboy which is on fire. As a result, RRQ had to be beaten back in just 15 minutes of the match. Score 1-0 for ONIC.

Second match

In the draft pick match phase this time, RRQ's strategy seems eager to kill Kairi's move by banning assassins from the Jungler's power heroes. And with their advantage, the yellow hedgehog team felt more confident going into the second match.

This is shown by releasing the hero pick Kufra and instead taking the Minotaur for Kiboy. Not missing this opportunity, Naomi, the imported roamer belonging to RRQ, took advantage of the gaps to take the tank hero.

In this meta, ONIC seems to want to play towards the late game. Kairi was also directed to use Granger by the two coaches. But RRQ doesn't want to 'buy' the strategy that ONIC 'sells'.

By utilizing the hit meta tank, RRQ Ferxiic who uses Baxia continues to riot in the opposing team's jungle area. And with the discipline that RRQ continues to maintain, within the same period as the previous match, 'the King' team returned the score to 1-1!

Third Match

With the positions of the two teams balanced, the MPL Arena roared with the screams of the fans from each team: SONIC and Kingdom! The performance shown by both teams was truly classy: the title of the strongest team in MPL ID deserves to be pinned on both of them!

In the closing match of the third day this time, ONIC returned to using the hit meta fighter, based on the Bane core fighter used by Kairi. Uniquely, they seem to want to find victory in an earlier phase!

This is shown by replacing the goldlaner position with the role Mage (Harith) for CW. Again, as if they didn't want to be affected by ONIC's game, RRQ remained 'steadfast' with the hit meta tank like in the previous match.

Even though in theory ONIC should be superior in the early-mid phase, the facts are not like that. From the beginning of the match, ONIC looked quite desperate. RRQ, who managed to push ONIC into the late game, seemed to have the upper hand with Brody as Skylar's goldlaner hero of choice.

Even though Kiboy's penetration and dive-in were truly terrible, the roamer has not been able to produce maximum results. The opposing team's marksman that he targets is protected very well by the other team members so that he always manages to shake up the MSC 2023 MVP's movements.

So with discipline that RRQ continues to maintain well, it's not surprising that in the end they can continue to push ONIC and destroy their base!

The RRQ team, as the 'dark horse' in this match, finally bagged the victory and broke ONIC's 26x win streak! Well done!
