Not Only Tehbotol & Lmemore, Indonesian Players Are Eyed by Korean & Japanese Teams
Maybe it’s been a long time since RRQ has made their decision for this Valorant roster, making them easy to be cornered by other big Asian teams as well.
Seulgi also gave the latest info about RRQ and Tehbotol and Lmemore:
“New: Organizations from East Asia have been looking for Indonesian players for their roster.
Some very famous Indonesian players from several ID organizations have been given offers from East Asia.
This includes Tehbotol & Lmemore, which means they may not be on RRQ. #VCT”

From Seulgi’s tweet, it seems that Indonesian players have received many offers from East Asian teams, possibly from South Korea and Japan.
For franchise teams, they may come from teams such as Gen.G, DetonatioN Gaming and Team Secret which do not yet have a definite roster.
Gen.G The South Korean team is also rumored not to be building a roster with only Korean players. They will make a mix roster from all over Asia. Before Gen.G made an announcement they were looking for Valorant players for their roster and one of the most important things was being able to speak English.

For RRQ itself, when the news of the mix roster was confirmed, many Indonesian fans were already disappointed because of course they wanted to see the full Indonesian roster from the RRQ team itself. But RRQ also wants to build the best team they can with Indonesian and Filipino players.
We are currently waiting, which Indonesian players have received and will receive offers from outside teams or franchise teams.
