What happened? Explain for someone that doesn't follow APAC
Trying my best to do a neutral POV, but as an Indonesian, most likely biased.
RRQ is an Indonesian org that is said to have gotten the franchise slot to represent Indonesia. Prior to the franchising, RRQ was an Indonesian team in playing VCT 2021. Unsatisfied with the results (probably due to them unable to actually achieve something; always short on achieving results), in 2022 they decided to disband their Indonesian Valorant team and make a new PH roster, which actually did quite well, getting onto VCT APAC Stage 2.
After the announcement of the franchising slot, for a brief moment RRQ posted a congratulation post, tagging their PH players. This tweet was later deleted and replaced by a tweet captioned: WE. ARE. READY! 🇮🇩 (with an Indonesian flag) - hinting that they were going to field an Indonesian roster. At first, people (including me) hesitated on which roster they are going to take, considering that they already have a PH roster, but with that tweet deleted it might've just been a mishap.
On RRQ's CEO's Instagram/Live (i forgot) - it was stated that it was going to be a mixed roster, with 3 Indonesians on the team. This was followed by a trial list posted on 30 September, stating 12 players (6 Indo and 6 PH) that were going to join a trial. On the same day, RRQ announced Coach Ewok as a coach (former ONIC coach). This signing might've looked like there were maybe ONIC players joining, since Ewok joined as a coach.
Time passed by and some leaks were out on scrim results that they have been trialing. No clear info (at least to the public) was released, then today (9 October 2022), RRQ announced the roster one by one (one every 2 hours), and to our surprise; only 1 Indonesian player was there out of the 6 players. Indonesians were disappointed with the result (you can see on the twitter replies) https://twitter.com/teamrrqofficial/status/1579119048130187264
(I might've missed some things, as I do not follow the drama closely)

Best summary, thx mate
kaesra [#3]rrq said they make indo superteam
also rrq 5/6 player pinoy
im not defending rrq but can anyone actually link where&when they actually said "indo superteam"?
kaesra [#3]rrq said they make indo superteam
also rrq 5/6 player pinoy
I just want to confirm that from the start RRQ wanted to create a team with a mix id/ph, they have absolutely no plans to create an indo superteam. Which is a very L decision because they could have made indonesia superteam or mixed sg/th players
solsolid [#6]said gonna represent indo -> announce mixed rosters -> start trialing ID + PH players -> rumour about predatory contracts -> announce 5 PH players (from their old roster that is T2 at best) -> announce 1 ID player (tehbotol, ex BOOM Esport) as their only ID player
Wanna complete this more..
said gonna represent indo -> announce mixed rosters id/ph-> CEO said at least they sign minimum 3 indo players -> start trialing ID (6 players) + PH (7 players) -> rumour about predatory contracts -> announce 5 PH players (from their old roster that is T2 at best) -> announce 1 ID player (tehbotol, ex BOOM Esport) as their only ID player

They want a ph id mix because they dont wanna release the ph players right after winning a tournament
sleeek [#20]They want a ph id mix because they dont wanna release the ph players right after winning a tournament
Nope they just wanted to cut costs . Most lft Indo players are T1 APAC and it costs money .
RRQ were not going to get them with their shitty contracts obviously
Zeah [#21]explain it in football terms
todd boehly promised tuchel to buy all what he wanted but at the end of the day tuchel got fired
