Bigetron RA (Red Aliens), a powerhouse Indonesian esports organization, fields top teams in games like Free Fire, League of Legends, and more. They're especially renowned for their dominant PUBG Mobile roster, which has shone in numerous international and domestic tournaments.
Despite a talented lineup, the team fell short this year, finishing 16th at the PUBG Mobile Global Championship 2021—a disappointing result for fans.
The surprise deepened when Bigetron RA announced on social media that Muhammad "Ryzen" Albi is taking a break from competitive PUBG Mobile. No specific reason was provided.
"Ryzen's journey with Bigetron Esports has added incredible highlights to the national and international PUBG Mobile scene. He secured every official PUBG Mobile trophy with Bigetron Red Aliens. Now, Muhammad 'Ryzen' Albi officially takes a break from competitive PUBG Mobile. Thank you for your invaluable contributions. Rest well, Ryzen—we hope to see you back soon."
This quote is from Bigetron's official PR Instagram post (translated). It hints at a potential quick return, though no timeline is given. The remaining squad stays intact:
UHigh is on loan to Geekfam for SEA Games 2022 but will rejoin Bigetron RA for official 2022 PUBG Mobile events. No replacement has been announced for Ryzen's rusher role.
