Roosters, APAC South, Future.


The cat is finally out of the bag. I guess leaving Renatus was already preemptive to this finale. Sticking with Renatus for the most of 2021, it's hard to believe that I will be saying goodbye to the organization. But at the same time, I am incredibly grateful to have met the Rainbow 6 Siege guys during my tenure there. Despite the ups and downs of these guys' success, hard work and determination eventually pay off, with the team securing a spot in APAC South.

Renatus
Moving on to Renatus, it should have been evident that there were a couple of red flags to me ever since the restructuring and the relaunching. Despite these, the team and I was convinced to take the plunge: and we paid the price for it. While the COVID-19 situation in China worsened the case, there were problems with the higher-ups within Renatus and the parent organization back in Shanghai.
All I can say is, I hope to never see them again in any Esports scene in any capacity after what we have gone through. No further elaboration is required here.

APAC South R6 Scene
Now about the APAC Siege Scene: As much as the others on social media/forums/Reddit may think, the APAC South Siege Scene is not in a good place. Players here are (generally) underpaid, and most of them only choose to accept it, to play the game they love to compete.
This is especially prevalent for teams in the MY/SG/PH/ID scene, where organization support is (almost) non-existent, given that this region mostly thrives in mobile games (and VALORANT).

The Future
So what's the future for the Roosters? At this point, the team will take it to step by step. We are currently still open to offers while simultaneously discussing offers with some organizations. However, unless the offer is suitable for the team, we are prepared to go org-less because, as a whole, we feel that the team does deserve a minimum threshold for incentives given the team's calibre.
In addition, there SHOULD be changes to the team coming into Stage 2, which the team believes will be a positive change and elevate our team to the next level. (which I can see too)
Making it to playoffs and the majors have always been our goal, and the team will be fully focused and committed to making that happen, no matter the cost and sacrifices. I know this may sound cheesy, but I do believe in them, like how I believed in them making it to APAC South this year, despite all the odds stacked against them.
