We're the pieces of the world
day two was long but we had a lot of fun so let's do it again welcome day three of the
rocket league world championship in fort worth texas everyone lived yesterday but four teams
will not survive to the end of date number three and then after that we're
gonna be jumping into 2v2s for the first time ever in the RLCS. Before we get to
the pre-show I was trying to look through Gibbs notes. I swear he had the script
around here somewhere. Is it? This one is it? Oh! How kind of Gibbs? It's gotta be
something like that. I found it.
Rocket League fans around the world, welcome to Fort Worth, Texas for day three of the Rocket League World Championship of
2026 we have 12th of the best Rocket League teams to grace God's green earth under the building and they are all competing for the title of Rocket League World
Champion, we also have the best 2v2 rosters
We've ever seen we also have the best 1v1 players including the reigning defending Rocket League 1v1 world champion
Nobu already in the grand finals. We'll see him playing for that title on Friday
Friday, three championships gonna be given out
before this weekend stacks.
It's the best week of the Lockley Gear.
Yeah, and bigger and better than ever,
right for the first time crowning
three different world champions,
or we could have some overlap between the ones,
the twos, or the threes.
Could be a very exciting finish to the weekend.
And now it's ramping up.
We're obviously eliminating four teams today,
and every day from here on out,
they'll be some elimination.
So high pressure moments.
Gibbs, you gotta stop leaving your scripts out.
I know, I know.
I did not write that.
Leave it to Gibbs to be excited about sending teams home.
talking about. We can't find the world championship. We can't find the world champion. Correct. You
bet. So we send you home. You're there. Somebody's got to go home. Only one can remain left. Yeah,
standing. You gotta go home. But you can't stay here except for one of you. You can stay
here because it'll be your building at the end of it. We'll find out. Oh, this is a
crazy, crazy year of Rocket League. November 14th. We kicked things off. We went to Boston.
We went to Paris, we had 2v2 and 1v1 qualifiers in four regions, and now it is that final.
Best week of the Rock League year, World Championship weekend here, September 15th through 20th,
and the fans are going to be in the building tomorrow, Stance.
Oh, I cannot wait.
I mean, this is what it all builds up to, just that big rush when we welcome eSports greatest
fans into the building, that big roar when the matches start and with every big moment
that happens day after day, game after game.
I can't wait one of the most competitive fields that we have ever had at a world championship here. Mr. Gibbs. Yeah
I'm super excited to because normally when we go to a North America event a lot of North American teams go home like earlier than
Expected right now. North America is looking very good. It could be said that's not doing that
Stop doing that. We're still the first half of the tournament
Got the bracket play yet. We ain't got out of there
We did see that on that play and two North American teams made it out of the play him into our group stage
We started yesterday saw lots of action there and yes to your credit North America did pop off at the beginning
It's been a fantastic stuff if you missed the group stage
Just get you caught up on how that action went and we will be continuing it on
Of course of today finishing off the group. Let's take a look at some of the highlights from yesterday
Furia was the big surprise time on North America. Let's talk about South America for a second third best South American team
We've seen in a while here at the World Championship,
Furia.
Yeah, this is a ninja's and a job that's
coming off a great EWC, where they were top four.
Furia was in a very tough group here.
I think most people probably have been fourth in this group,
but they go into the day and go two up.
Yeah, you come in expecting to go fourth in the group.
They are third in the tournament in goals for game.
Two and a half goals for games, as they absolutely go off.
Yan goes for nine goals yesterday.
Six from lost, five from Swift.
And it seemed like every single goal that Yan scored
had a huge impact on that game.
And they're doing it in all three classes of the game.
Kick-offs, offense, defense, and in particular,
in the offense, and they start to get really physical.
They've been having a lot of bumps.
You'll see it in this Twisted Mind series.
The way they want to sweep gets two demos back to back
to really open up that game.
Score the game, win a goal.
Not him, I believe.
Yeah, might have couldn't have done that.
But it's just the physicality that they're bringing
to the play.
They're going to sweep by your big bubble tier.
They send them home, they're for Yan.
Big moment, they're down 2-1 in that series versus 2-2 minds.
I think most teams would fold under the pressure,
but Furio battles back.
And there's the double demo.
And Furio gets the win.
As they roll through, there were a few surprises.
Yesterday was a very difficult day for predictions
as Man City over in their group also gave us some surprises,
popping off there.
Not quite getting the win against NRG,
but taking rebellion down in a sweep to open up a group.
That was absolutely huge.
We talked about Man City back in Paris
When they were in the group stage, no crowd.
They went nine and one, and they began red hot here again.
They did a really hot.
I mean, it's just, it's quite an old game.
Alpha Spectre going into prediction.
I suspect shot might be way more effective offensively.
Man City sent him down, kept winning game 1-0, 2-1,
comfortable, always shot from the midfield.
You're like, that's how Seiko loves to play.
Yeah, Seiko leaves the way for Man City
with five of their eight goals.
At some point, somebody decided,
we gotta let this guy go.
Sure, it's not a team that's going off offensively, though.
I mean, they're averaging just over a goal per game.
They're one of the weakest offenses statistically.
But you look at Acura and HB, everybody
who's making their world's debut is struggling right now.
I think all of our world's debut players
scored a total of six goals in the 16 games they played
yesterday.
I mean, this is a struggle to score against a team like NRG,
though, when they control in the midfield,
keeping you out of the offensive end.
But Vansity, they can work on it.
They can improve.
NRG is playing a little bit better.
NRG did, especially through the back half of that series,
really start to come into their form,
and hopefully we'll see them continue to play that way here
on day number two of the group stage.
Let's talk about Group D here for second.
Gentlemates of Vitality.
The two big names in this group.
Verdes Pro, though, comes through the last chance
qualifier, comes through the play-in,
and then 3-1 to open up Group D.
Takes down Vitality.
We talked about how that play-in can be an advantage
if you're good enough to get out of it.
VP was the hottest team through the play-in,
and they kept it going.
Their defense is phenomenal throughout this tournament.
0.82 goals against Pergame.
Less than a goal, Vitality only got one goal
for game throughout the series.
Verdes Crowe is here to play.
They are here to play him.
And I've seen a lot of people exotic.
You didn't have the best series,
but they still had chances Vitality did.
And it really, you gotta get credit to that VP defense.
I believe there's multiple times,
even in game three, Vitality have VP on the road.
The two-fies kept making big play up the big play,
big stop at the big stop,
giving his team a chance to be successful.
And when all three are in sync like this,
in unison, utilizing one another,
that's just a tough team to beat.
Good win by Verdes Crowe.
That's how to use feisty more out of them.
Hopefully do today, but VP, they're on the right now.
Curtis Crowe, as shocking a result as you could ask for,
very early on in the day.
I think a lot of us backstage are watching that going.
Is this real?
It was surprising.
A lot of the weight for that Vitality loss
falls on exotic shoulders.
A lot of Vitality fans are going to be looking to see him step up
here for Group D because they have two matches today.
They'll be playing wild card first thing.
match you would expect vitality to be able to win with how wildcard looked
yesterday, but then they close out the group against gentlemates and that is
anything but guaranteed. It's gonna be brutal like those two groups have to
play two games while the other groups only have to play one left, but four of
those teams going home. We'll talk about the groups here in a little more
detail in a second, but let's talk about the coolest most spectacular plays of
yesterday. These are your top plays presented by Progressive. Some 3v3 and 1v1
here, Bayes. That's right. We had 3v3 and 1, of course, yesterday. Let's start with
3 still KSSG. This is right up for a while. I said the crazy going at 20 seconds left,
but 2 seconds left. SSG all getting involved. It was a fearless play, but he set up mainly
right here. I believe this is DS, bringing up high, tossing up, has Jolly, pops back
down with the jump. Just a game on the face as X revealed, DS gets the play, and here
comes Saki. He was always too close to the play so much in that game, but he wasn't too
close right there. Ended up tying it up, but they did lose that game.
Yep, next play coming up. We're going to show a little love to OCE and Wildcard getting
thing still on here, Torosos, he's been a world championship player for forever.
Gets the best out to Fever at zero on the clock to tie that game wild card.
Watching it up at the right moment, unfortunately, it did lose that game over time.
Play number five, let's go to the 1v1's Nats.
Is he the best in the world?
Find out later this weekend with him. Must see this is gorgeous.
And this is the path to save right before this touch.
Oh, maybe as good as the shot.
Yeah, there's the whole build up to that play
that made it simply special.
But listen, sometimes you got to bring it back down
to the ground.
We talked about waving.
You saw the highlights.
We used to go to the first 180 like, oh, you get it on Zen.
Crossbar down.
These are like some of the special schools in R5.
1v1, you think Zen's going to win this every single time.
He went up lose wave.
He's clinical.
And you see a smirk.
He was confident after that one.
Kevin, one of the rules of rock league
is if there's a top play list, you have to have Zen.
And Zen, going for bumps, can't find a dough.
the adder zips across the net and gets the redirect goal in Xand is just a
playmaker it doesn't matter where he's on the field he's always a threat and
our penultimate play oh how do you do nobo I'm pretty sure I could air dribble
an egg without crafting it gets the double bang bang foot win the battle
twisted minds win the war what a performance out of nobo then the best
play at the tournament so far in my estimation.
And while it's right when they had no momentum,
that's a G. It seemed like they were going to finish a series.
And for all of a sudden, RW9 Sidewalls,
him takes away all of SG's momentum,
gives Falkus the chance.
And then ultimately they finish over here in Champions.
They're right after that.
This is what you need.
Big top players make big top plays,
that's what he likes to say.
And that's how he used to dop, though.
He put the team on his back that entire series,
but that was definitely the crowning jewel of that one.
Yeah, the Zen shot, though, number three.
I think that was my favorite one.
I did the cross body elbow with his catch though to was phenomenal that aerial catch was fantastic
The wavy shot well
I mean they're all big moments
I would say the Zen shot and a wash I have a too big momentum changing play because by Taliyah
They were dead in the water heading up and all of a sudden you need your player to make a play
Zen does where was it Falcons they look like they're gonna lose or wise makes the play interesting
How many of those top plays did come from series that were games that were lost for a series that were ultimately lost because vitality did not find
The wind there they're looking to jump bounce back here today
We take a look at the whole groups and kind of talk about what needs to happen,
especially for the two groups that we saw twice yesterday.
We have some decent tiebreaker understandings of what needs to happen for these teams.
Nobody's dead though yet, right?
Yes, no one is out yet, which is a great sight to see.
Everyone is going to play for a chance to make it to the playoffs.
But obviously Group A and Group T, they've only played one game, so we're not going to focus on that.
We're going to go over to Group B and talk about Ninjas and Pajamas have not won a game yet.
Yet, they control their own destiny.
If they 3-0 twisted minds, no matter what, if it's a three-way tie, they will advance.
If it's a two-way tie between them and twisted minds, they will advance.
If they win in any other format, then Foot has to beat Furia for Ninjas and Majamas to
advance as well.
Foot, if they 3-1 Furia, they don't have to worry about anything else.
They will be the number one seed.
Two lives at top four chance there.
So that is what they're playing for.
And obviously Furia, they're 2-0.
So if they just win that set, they don't have to worry about any of that.
But obviously there's a couple other three-way ties.
Yeah.
Could come down to goal differential in these games.
So Twisted Minds actually has a favorable goal differential for the number one overall seed.
But we got to play the games and find out if these teams do it.
So which is crazy.
So they could be number one based off of a three-way tie.
They could be number one of a few different ways.
But if Ninjas and Pajamas manages to get the sweep, which obviously quite a tall task to sweep.
Yeah, Twisted Minds could be out.
But Twisted Minds would be out.
Yes.
And even if they lose 3-2, twisted minds,
they could still be out if Foot Beats Furia.
Because then it's just a head-to-head tiebreaker.
Who knows?
I don't know.
Both Foot and Furia have strong groups.
Incredibly close.
That was always going to be difficult for whoever
was fourth place.
Probably the best fourth place of any of these groups.
OK.
Let's talk about Group C. What's your situation at Group C?
All right.
Group C will bring up the board here,
so you guys get a little visual energy.
You sit in that 2-0.
Obviously, if they win, they will be the number one seed.
Rebellion.
I said they qualified as a top three team.
They have not yet.
It comes down to if they get three-o'd and big-o three-o's,
Rebellion is out.
That is the only way.
So if Manchester City wins one game,
or if Rebellion wins one game, they will qualify top three.
So that's all they need.
So very likely they're in, but we'll see.
But then I would say Manchester City,
they still have a chance in a three-way tie.
So if we see Rebellion win and Manchester City,
There's a three-way tie at first.
There's a lot of different game differences there.
But big O as well, if they beat Man City
and Rebellion wins, then big O is through as well.
So for big O's here, big O as we're calling them,
and Ninja's the pajamas.
There's no chance of being first in their group.
There's no chance of being first.
Yes, you're just trying to be top three.
Again, two and three, see, it really doesn't matter.
You're playing on Friday either way.
It'll be a tougher matchup,
but I don't think these guys really care about that.
They just want to make it to the crowd.
Hi, I think, would you rather be big O
or ninja pajamas in this situation.
I don't know, both man cities playing a little bit better
than expected, Twisted Minds playing a little bit worse
than expected.
I don't know which one's the most favorite question.
I feel like I would rather play Man City in general
than Twisted Minds.
I think a lot of us have Twisted Minds as a top 14 here,
even though they haven't looked that way yet.
Mm, Man City, I don't know.
I think I'd rather play Man City.
I think I would rather have to play Man City.
Yeah, I'd rather play Man City.
Their offense hasn't been as good.
And sure, it's in mind, you know, you look at all the talent there.
That's a tough ask.
If we can pull up the full group graphic here and just talk for a second about it,
because the biggest surprises of yesterday obviously were Furia.
We saw Virtus Pro come through Man City.
These were the big surprises.
Was there anyone that was what that you were happy to see played as expected
or either way, either better or bad?
Well, honestly, I would say energy.
I think the energy got done exactly what they should have.
like man city they're playing two teams that are gonna play a lot of defense my
concern with energy is you have to hold the ball lay on the offensive side they
did absolutely that and they did what I think many thought they would and go 2-0
in an easier man I like the energy shot but once again I'm always gonna keep
up on what gives in they rank he ranked them in the F tier yesterday so you got
to keep that in perspective this is why I didn't do F tier I thought play
sensational yesterday. They really did level up. They have 4-0 by Falcons by me at AWC, but the fact
that they honestly can't leave, they look like the better team against Falcons. They just couldn't
get the job done. I mean, that's big volumes. How much they've improved than them on. Yeah,
yeah. And the teams that won in Group A, I mean, that's the group that we're all looking at, just
going like, you're gonna feel real bad for the team that doesn't make it out of that group. The
teams that won, you're glad that they took care of business and they didn't let all the noise of,
Oh, woe is me. We got the bad group. Oh no. You got to play the games. You got to play
who's in front of you. They did so group A also still completely stacked. We always
have them one play one time yesterday. We'll see them play the rest of their matches today
as we will with all these groups. They'll be starting things off on both the mainstream
and the ultra stream will be showing you that those schedules here in just a moment. These
teams all though are trying to make it through their groups as the number one seed because
if you are the number one seed, you get to play in the top side of the bracket. You have two
You have two opportunities to play a to win one match and be in the top four
If you are not the top side of your group if you were not the number one seed of your group
If you're two and three you go into this bottom side of the bracket where there is only one life
You gotta win three matches to make it all the way to top four
So being the top of your group such an important vital part of this tournament if you are the bottom team in your group
You are eliminated from the world championships
We will be sending four teams home today and guaranteeing how much money they make locking them in at that top 12
price point line 300,000 dollars though on the line for the top team on the day
And if you're sitting there at home being like, you know, it's just like a little bit more
But then my family did have a little bit more money and maybe maybe for all the team
All teams have just a little bit more money
And I wish there was a way I could like you know give some money and maybe get a decal for it
I got such good news for you like it's incredible news go to the rocket league shop in game and check out the world championship bundle
1,100 credits you get a decal you get wheels you get a boost
There's also a separate goal explosion you can grab and a hundred percent of the net profits of these sales goes directly to the
2026 world championship prize pool one of the best ways best things you can do
Yeah, or these work if it split up amongst the placements also player accolades and also MVP's
We will have a finals MVP a tournament MVP and a breakthrough player MVP as well
So dope decal to it's a nice decal. There's another decal. That's kind of similar already used
I've got the name of it and all it looks really really good. So I know that one's gonna rip off of the
2024 RLCS world championship crystalline decal. I think like it's got like a different color. Yeah
Well, yeah, it's like that but it's not decal looks kind of like that. It's really good. I use it all the time
I just don't the name to decals anymore guys
That's cool decal whichever one of this is used but it didn't go directly to support exactly right
So you're in chat right now. You're supporting RCS and you just haven't bought it yet
I don't know what you're doing. So like it put in chat with W base if you got that thing got that thing done
and I'll be checking later.
There's a good time.
There's a good place out there.
Go get your decals, folks.
We got a few minutes here before.
What we got?
11 minutes until kickoff here.
We've been doing the talent predictions.
Some people in chat really care about this,
and it's really fun to see.
So let's show it to you.
Let's show you how things are going so far.
By the way, you've been doing really well, Jack.
Do we have to?
Really?
I do.
We do.
We have to show them.
It's like you have to show them in Paris.
Because I want Paris.
We change it so much.
I don't feel like people really know how we're doing
the point system anymore.
Well, I want to explain our little points is the point system is pretty simple
You get two points for every win if the game if the series goes to game five you get one point for a loss and if you predict
a team to win that like the majority of casters didn't pick to win you get an underdog points you get four points
Yeah, so blood so this is why the numbers are significantly more than the matches we've played
It's more fun for us. It makes us try and pick those underdogs a little bit more like yesterday
I had Diaz. I was in the green room yelling at him. You were because I thought he was going to win that match
And he didn't and that would have you know, bumped me all the way up top into like top three
I think it was so we're just having a little fun here, but chat doing very well. Jorbie
He came in last last time. We'll see him in ducky attire tomorrow. Well, but he's in first place right now
Is it first place because yeah, and you see in the background. He has a gold
Yeah, back drop. Is that gonna pick ssg is that?
Okay, but it is but it's true
He's also the only talent here that picked SSG as his world champions and it was hard to work that far. Yeah, very interesting
I think we had four people picked twisted minds only two picking Falcons to go back to back
So a little bit of an underdog. I'm on the caster back-to-back land wings
Yeah, yeah, cuz only one person picked one team to go back to back world championship. That's true
That's true only one person picked energy that was shocking. It's probably Johnny point folks
If you're watching the stream and you're like hey that decal thing you're just talking about
pretty cool, but I don't have 1,100 credits sitting around to buy it. We'll just keep watching
the stream. Drop rush is live on Twitch as well as TikTok. You can get some special drops now
through the 20th on Twitch and now through the 28th on TikTok with special unique drops
championship Sunday. So if you're watching today, make sure you're too mech in on Sunday as well
to get those extra, extra drops over there. One of the fun ways we're celebrating the best
week here, the Rock Week year. Yeah, it's just a lot of fun. Just watch, enjoy it and you get
some extra prizes on top. Folks, we are moments away from the beginning of the tournament here. And
if you're watching and thinking, man, I wish I could have been in the building there, but it
just wasn't in the cards to make it to Fort Worth. Check out the QR code on your screen, scan it,
and see if there's an AMC theater near you that's showing the big games here, folks. You can be in
the building with other Rockley fans watching it on the big screen when we crown the world
championships this weekend. Just got to find an AMC theater near you. I know that the Burbank 16
near my house is doing it this weekend. I've seen some people on the subreddit are already getting
together for that one, so definitely go check it out. And they're gonna work in their motto,
it's we make movies better. Now it's we make esports better. All right. Well, also scripted
this. So it's basically a movie. Don't tell them a script. We got a couple minutes here before we
kick off the games. We got two different broadcasts happening over the course of this weekend. This
will be actually the last day of the alternate stream. Twitch.tv slash RLE sports has this
schedule of matches. Falcons is prepared to play made in Brazil. I'm watching them walk in right
right now as we speak to take their seats for that match up.
So make sure you are tuned into both broadcasts today
to see how everything pans out.
A lot of teams over there wildcard ninjas
and pajamas in particular, playing
for their tournament lives on the alternate stream.
Meanwhile, over here, we will finish off today
with the 2v2 semifinals.
So you saw the 1v1 semifinals yesterday.
Today, we will see Zen and Ado taken on space station gaming,
Falcons and Furia taking each other on as well.
Before then, we got to finish off the group stages here.
this mainstream there's no bad match there. It's all these teams are fantastic teams. All those
probably could very easily be top eight in this tournament. We're going to see how they battle it
out. See who comes out of these groups. It's going to be very close. I expect a lot of tie
burgers at the end of today. Imagine. There's rules. There's no tiebreaker match. Yes, there's
no tiebreaker matches, but in terms of game differential, everything is going to matter.
Every single game. That would not be no tiebreaker matches. Man, all of these groups are not
Yeah, we were wondering what he was just talking about.
Nature's a bedtime, so we can't have tiebreaker math.
Bedtime.
Shhh.
Shhh.
Shhh.
Shhh.
But he was falling asleep yesterday, just in the green room.
So we've got to make sure he makes it back to his bed.
I'm always getting outed, but what's going on?
I'm really watching a game.
I'm very locked in.
I'm very always excited to watch Rock League gameplay.
So stop.
Shhh.
Shhh.
Shhh.
Shhh.
They're making up lies about you over here.
Yeah, no, today the teams, this is a big day for a lot of these teams.
Because for teams like Falcons, this is their third day playing in this space.
We talked about the kind of maybe a bit of an advantage of playing in the plane and making
out before all the other teams yesterday was first day of locking in today.
We're okay.
We know the environment.
We know the temperature of the room.
We can lock in here and really show what we've got here at the World Champion.
Exactly.
It's also big because if you get in first in your group, you skip tomorrow, you go play
on Saturday.
It has to be different and you can extra like huge for all these teams.
Nobody's locked in number one.
See, yeah, on the group.
So we'll see if they can do it.
We've got a wonderful schedule of matches to get to the players already.
Let's get into it and start talking about them.
The first time we're seeing them on the main broadcast here, the blue wall.
Coming in as defending Paris major champions,
taking on the new hotness in North America.
Space station game and making it all the way to the grand finals.
Whoop in this team on their way at EWC.
Can they double up on it here in the group stage?
Well, this is a spicy matchup.
We saw a space station look pretty good against Falcons,
but just barely fell short.
So now there's a little bit of desperation for them
to get this win.
Yeah, for these teams, also, it's
kind of funny that Spaces of Gaming
throughout this group basically has
to go through all the ghosts of their past, right?
All the teams that they had faced
and had some pretty big moments with.
Now, the stakes as high as they could possibly
B going into, hopefully, both these teams, the knockout stage.
Making their mainstream debut at the 2026 World Championship,
it's defending Paris Major champions, Carmen Coyle.
With KC, of course, we won two majors.
I think we won everything.
We just need the world's now for KC, for the fans.
We got really, really, really good first pitch at the beginning.
Like two wins in the final, which is a one after one.
I don't really know why, but in the Boston Major,
I think we didn't play our best,
but we thought it would be better.
It's good to do something like,
you just need to fight again and
do better for the team.
We did fight back, of course,
Paris Major, Atom,
in front of the KS fans,
in front of the family as well.
It was just like,
we were the best in the world and
we could win that,
we can win the world's title.
Ten men in general, maybe one of the best in the world right now, with us and the fans.
And of course, he has a lot of champions in the team. I think he wants to go trippin'.
I think we have the team to change that, of course. I think we can win worlds by far.
We stop him, of course, in the past major already. I think he is a bit scared of us.
I know that we are a better team. I think he is a better team than we are today.
I feel good in the game. I feel like I'm one of the best in the game.
I feel like I have to really decide for myself in this iconic spot, of course.
K-Corp, the blue wall you have to be seeing on A-Stream, but that's going to change in just a few moments here.
Coach, extra with me. Great to see you, man. Are you nervous? Are you ready to go?
I'm not nervous. I'm really focused.
Really focus good. I mean, that's what you have to be guys coming off of course the Paris major win
Which which was huge super exciting but coming into worlds things can change there was a lot of break between that
Looking at your gameplay and the style. Have you changed anything major or are we going to be expect what we've seen from that moment?
You're gonna see a bit from Paris. Yeah, please. Yeah, we we've changed a bit because we had like a bit of trouble at EW
Yep, and yeah, we we got like so much prepared for this. So it's gonna be good
That's good now looking at just how the schedule is played out
Do you like the fact you guys only had that one match yesterday? Would you prefer it more?
Do you like the extra scrim time? How did the players take that?
And is this a good kind of rollout for the week for you guys? I think like in my opinion
The first like to have only one game on the first day
It's good because the first game is always like the most awkward for
Yeah, so if you win this then you're going in the tournaments more content into the next days
So I think it's better for us to have only one game perfect. Hey, well, hopefully that plays into this match up here
You said you're focused. I'm gonna let you get back with the team. Thank you so much extra. Let's go take a look at your opponents now
The world championships like everything it's what everyone fights for for the both season and it's like the ultimate goal in a C-Sport
You know, we've practiced, we've skewed 5,000s of games consistently, improving over time,
across each split, got better and better results from Boston to London, Paris, and we hope
to continue that here at Worlds.
We think we're the best team in the world.
We definitely know how good we can be.
I think second year of U.C. really just confirms that and shows that we left a little on the
table in the grand final, but other than that, we feel good about the tournament and shows
that we can really be anybody and definitely give us a lot of confidence coming to Worlds.
Just play confident, play our game, play calm, and just give it our best.
Space station gaming, I'm here with coach X-spear, I rematch after rematch, it feels
like it's for you guys, you know, coming out of yesterday you had that rematch, you're
hoping to maybe take the dump there, didn't quite go the way you wanted to, but a little
bit better than it had previously.
Did that bother you guys?
Were you able to stay locked in, only having that match?
I mean honestly, we didn't, we just had two important opportunities that should have
gone in, in different just one or two situations that we just considered when we shouldn't.
I mean we watched the clipways, we knew exactly what was the problem even before we watched
and so we just got to like not commit these same mistakes today.
Cool, so you feel like you already have the answers, like you know if that, you know, what to do next?
Yeah, yeah, 100%.
Well, how about this matchup here, of course, looking at back at EWCA Blueview, you have this one a lot, right?
You know what to do in this one.
Are you worried though that given that extra, you know, a few weeks between that matchup and this time that they might have a solution for you?
I mean, yeah, they'll definitely have an answer for us.
I just think it's at this level, especially the area you are on the, on the rankings.
like anyone can win. It's just like a match for anyone. I think they're a great team. I think we
played better than they might really see. We just gotta keep playing the same game and make sure
we're not letting them play their game. Yeah, no, absolutely. So how do you adjust the players,
I guess, to be prepared for the fact that things will probably look different this time now that
you're finishing them again? When we scream them, we kind of know what they're gonna do. So...
Feeling confident on the screams, too? Yeah, 100%. Okay, cool. Hey, well, that's all the time I'm
gonna take for you. Why don't you get back to your players and play the match up? Good luck.
Thank you. A rematch from EWC. And if you're looking at Group A, honestly, this is kind of
a nightmare group for Carmen Corp. The two teams that swept them in EWC now here in this group,
having to go up against them again. And they honestly got the best skill they could have,
getting made in Brazil as their first match yesterday. Today, they have to run the government.
But what a performance by Space Station to take out K Corp. K Corp, they went into that tournament,
Paris Major champion, they're going to just keep winning everything. They're the greatest team
in the world and then space is like hold on we have that potential to beat anyone and they showed
it at EWC with Diaz who looked completely unlocked in that EWC 3v3 format so if he can keep up that
place space station can do it again and and to zoom in on yesterday you know both these teams
very different matchups right you know karmine corp you know they go 11 goals five against
in their match, you know, so it's like two and three quarters goals per game.
Looks like a gargantuan offense.
It's only four games. Everybody chill out.
Space station gaming.
They scored six conceded six in a in a three to classic
with with Falcons every single game
right down to the wire and yet one nothing to one to nothing felt like a huge win for them.
And then there was a couple of two one losses to Falcons.
So they have very much battle-tested work coming for almost kind of cruised to some extent through their first series
And then on top of that here we keep talking about that EWC win by space station
It was three one goal games
It was a very close series could have went either way so Kingkorp
I think knows that and they just have to do those small adjustments of Attira was actually leading the team in demos back in
EWC which is an oddity because actually that guy exactly but yesterday with Attio and Attira both
They demoed very heavily so it seems like the tears moving up the field a little bit more
Clinton juicy as that third man, which could be a little worrying at times for cable. We heard him briefly mentioned in the
Carmen core little video piece, but we've been talking a lot about the legends of Vicki's arenas with people who have won their championships here and
We talked a lot about the players, but is worth remembering extra
One the inaugural world championship of the open-air in Vicki's next to monkey man on that ABS roster
and he's here again. We heard him talk about it at the end of the Paris major.
Like it's also my building too.
He feels excited to be back in this building.
He did. He was, he is excited. I saw him on the buzz yesterday.
He said, all the way in the back, he said, no, I was in the back here.
I said, no, he said, because this is why I sat at the single time.
And I came here four years ago.
Superstitions are only weird that they don't work.
Folks, let us know who you think is going to win in the chat stacks for you.
I mean, let's face it, everybody on Twitter calls me KC stacks for a reason.
I have him to win the world championship. I got Carmen for
I feel like extra probably is the same hotel room. We had four years ago
This is comfortable. I think Casey gets this. I think of the Tierra really wants this world championship
When he's never even made the grand finals. Oh, I think Casey takes it really want everybody move for Casey
Do for Casey. I mean as a G I think they play sensational yesterday. Casey. We haven't seen them battle testages yet. Yeah, no
guess what? But that's the whole arc and story of the beauty of this game. Revenge. Give me
Carmen Corp over SSG right here right now. Casey gets a W. Stax. I also have Carmen Corp
winning this whole tournament. And when I sat there and was like, I don't know, I can really
see it. Space station looked great yesterday. Carmen Corp has given me some reasons to doubt,
but the tiebreaker for me was, well, I thought I, if I think Carmen Corp can do it the whole way,
I think they can do it here against space station. So I'm going to stick with my gut and go with
Carmen Corp. But I don't like the fact that this is showing this to be this one sided over here.
here. How's the coin? Maybe the coin can save us your space station on one side, Carmen
Corp on the other. And Carmen Corp and then I get not the perfect sweeper on the desk
as space station comes up for the coin there. So we saw on the graphic, a perfect day yesterday
on mainstream abysmal day on the ultimate stream. So that's where the balance was.
I don't know if it's the bottom. It's at the bottom. You came here to watch some games.
So let's get into the day three of the world championship for 2026 and rocket league kicks
Off now a rematch from the most recent big event North America versus Europe
Reigning defending Paris Spadres champions Karmicorp taking on space station
What a brilliant fun way to start the day this is it is 11 a.m. Here in Fort Worth
And we have got Karmicorp the defending
Paris a major champions taking on SSG the team that swept them is the couple of months ago
Now at EWC, game one, it's brought to you all by Progressive.
Timezones do be crazy.
First thing in the morning here,
for many people around the world, it's the evening.
You can see that might be going in soon,
but I'll make a perfectly used timezone here.
No, excuse, they can't beat SSG this time.
Not for losing three out of them last time around
at the Esports World Cup, it was a shock at the time,
but ended up seeing SSG all the way to the Grand Finals.
It was a real coming of age performance
from the young American team.
very impressive squad for SSG, but a great drop down starting off from Atto, who is also very
mind-later today, going to be playing in the 2v2s with Zen, an incredibly exciting team,
so his day will not be done even after this couple of series that he's got, very very busy
time for him. The SSG, they were one of a few teams to sweep Conley Cobb at EWC, it was
not quite as insane as that, that makes it out to sound. Falcons and NIP both also
So we've also skipped them 4-0 and 3-0, and they want to make sure that they are put
back into this series, into the world championships on the absolute top of their game.
As you see right there, near loss yesterday against Stalkins, a 3-2, it was a decent performance
from Mellor discussing it on the deck as that tries to stop the tier of career in this,
and put the tier against a decent 50-50 on it, whether it was good or bad, they were
starting out against a team that destroyed them in that E-Sports 12 Cup round finals.
We said it was good in the end.
And that being that, couple of games against Falcons is a decent return based on how they've been.
If they can do the PC again with the even better, if they're defending from Batira once more,
Batira gets it towards Atom and juices it up.
Orc at their Batira actually ends up getting the next touch.
Casey not quite fully in comms right there, Stumpy.
Then Batira, all the way down the other side, gets flipped in across from Zack.
And as we said, it was all through players from Casey that had to get involved for the save,
but only one player from SSG to put on a good amount of offense here.
That now chance to shoot bottom corner reveals six in the way and I think technically gets credit to with the safe
Yeah, I think I was revealed such from the end of this was going in any way
There was a couple of easy plays out of the near post all the way revealed will suck into action
but these things
Should we say confidently defensively a couple of awkward touches and relying on teammates where?
You may be expecting to be relied upon I've seen it from the Sierra
Sort from the reveal as well
The damage done, Mill Mill, a tight opening game, and you can't even see the mistakes at this height of World Championship.
The SSG deserve full credit for having their play at EWC, a really fantastic tournament, a problem, a great showing.
They obviously, against Falcons, couldn't get it done, but to be honest, nobody could get it done versus Falcons.
They were an unbelievable team, completely perfect rock league on the day.
So, a four-way sweep, it cannot be too upset with that in the grand final, but they're going to come back into this and be suffering a little bit.
KC pressure might materially reduce the central for Atto who ends up showing away from that ball and instead rushes back into defense.
Yeah, so she's doing good work depending on the goal. I'm there. A couple of big clearances and the reader being filled past too.
Space station gaming, picking over all by KC's attack.
Going forwards now. This is going to be a charged reveal. Shoot this side, but Atto again was in the goal.
Zach was trying to get a bite of him.
He didn't quite reach him.
Sierra coming forward. This is that sort of game that's going to come down to one moment reveal.
It's a lovely second touch there from Reveal, wow.
A completely imperative second touch too.
If he doesn't make it, GC has an easy tap in Atto.
It's a demo, so he is becoming more and more famous for
leaving those demos, along with Viterra and the EWC.
Reveal against the momentary low boost Viterra,
he can get that back corner.
He has it on target, shoots low, Viterra's called back to action again.
Just gonna fire it up away, and now it's gonna be zacked them.
Not quite a reset, not quite a skim either,
A couple of knock-whites to reveal.
Almost pulled the kerf and back and get the first goal.
Diaz, Jessica, that's touch-forward.
90 seconds left now on game number one, Atto.
Slows things down.
It's this progressive ball under his spell.
Just coming in needs to beat Diaz here and can't quite do it.
Diaz could pace from him.
What is it that Ben hit there?
Oh, from Atto.
He was saying he was coming into the ball
and has been throughout the season,
but that was pulled from him.
Diaz has revealed to his left,
and he funneled it to him nearly there.
70 seconds left, FSC on the attack.
So to the side, but he has to be able to get this one.
Such a low scoring game so far as well.
Nothing has snuck in for either side, but SSG with low boost.
They want to make it so, and they do.
With 0-1, 0-1, 1, SSG secure the first.
The game like this.
That may well be enough.
Vittiera had to go in for the in and out save.
Couldn't quite get there in time.
And the finish from Zap was true.
1-0, space station.
Can they hold or are they trying to double up here? The kickoff.
Peans into the centre, Vitero almost beats Diaz.
Gc's there, Diaz, who?
A decent flight, yes, they get Nassan, the 1v1, has to fight here again,
and they get out of the game, Vitero, he's squeezing in, yes, he can.
And Wondo leads for the second.
The set to be a lovely angle there, Vitero 2 and Gc.
Yet again, such a fantastic player.
He's had a lot of criticism coming towards him recently, Cole.
A lot of people saying that he may not be the number one player on this car.
It's very hard to be that that play was entirely drawn up from his own mind.
That's how maybe could have won that one instead.
He's towards reveal and drawn up again with only 40 remaining.
Sierra all the way to the backboard.
Oh, can he get the second one nearly there's that.
Attack.
She's coming at you.
The play mentioned brings away those question marks.
It's 11am lads! They're screaming their hearts out!
It's a brilliant goal from Juicy, yet again the architect of SSG's demise so early on and the passion right off the break.
Yeah, Gibbs was right, they do want the win world, who knew? Here comes Metira on the right wing.
Zach, I think he's spawned in there. It's definitely a demo that has been juicing.
for Juicy to the back, but can he make it a third?
Clearly Diaz clears, he sets it here, 20 seconds left to get back into this first game
but Metira punches it forward once more.
There's a demo once again, it's Metira, the number one tower.
To lose that 50 though, Zac has 10 seconds to make something happen.
Huge clear from Juicy, finds Metira as well in a very tight angle,
dropping down, it's going to be Diaz, that wouldn't be one of the masters.
If you couldn't get it done yesterday, they won't be suffering the same fate.
In game number one here, can him and his team get it done?
Drop low, Metira and Carmencourt.
When we had an absolute stalemate,
the first four minutes, three goals snuck in.
I must admit, when she took the lead,
I thought this one was gonna peter away
as far as Carmencourt were concerned,
but it seemed to inspire them,
injected a bit of belief into them.
And suddenly, they got their equalizer and Juicy,
he was the player who came to life in that one.
Yeah, I think it was fantastic yesterday as well.
I was very impressed with what Juicy
I think he was really their best player yesterday from what I was seeing.
They're such a magnifying glass on every single roster at this level, but it certainly feels like Juicy gets the short end of the stick a lot of the time.
But in the world championship, he is absolutely showing up.
Yeah, I mean Juicy's a player who has won majors, won the kick-off round at the start, he's won things of calming, cool, he's not shy at all of winning an event.
I think that when you look towards how the others are playing with Ato and Vittira, especially they're trying to go for a lot more demos and more physical play, SSG, and then they've escaped a lot of these, Juicy still has to land a couple of demos.
SSG, I think they've escaped a lot of these, Juicy still managed to land a couple of demos, he's still managed to get the assists across.
So far, there's been a hint on calmly called those from the difference made, but SSG is still playing incredibly well.
The both teams are such a stalemate and Zack nearly squawks one bar for the defender, and the J-Man can sneak by back instead.
Yeah, for SSG so far, they've told him it's been okay, you know, they fought hard to get to that game five against Vulcans, and on another day they would have beaten them.
But that battling house is good, you can build upon it and win your next series.
Suddenly though, if you've been to KC, it was a really tough group, you got a chance against
MIBR where you have to make sure you avoid the upset or what will be going out?
There's harsh lines here.
The world championship is usually slows down, SSG, DS.
Press to keep it going and SSG has definitely started getting through better because they
make something from his passing to the centre, but DS didn't read it.
I think Metiric wants to park anyway.
And it remains no little.
You're going to hope for a assist to you this dead vault, doesn't just stay for as long as it did,
because they couldn't get it done towards the end of the game.
40 seconds to get two goals, in case you see this fantastic showing,
as reveal wants to get things going early and miss from Juicy,
and he has it used a little bit too far forward, and the ball is played behind the attacking second man.
I'm not sure if that was his fault, or if that was Reveal's as well,
because Reveal could have got more angle on it.
We'll have to watch back, because sadly there was no field pass available.
It wasn't quite taken, the space station gave him half to be taking these half chance
up against Army Corps, we were starting to come to the boil.
Sierra decides to get to that one, he knew the boot would be coming in, he gets a couple
of touches.
Can you see?
Even comfortable now they've got their first game here in this series.
They've been better in game number two until Atto, who's on the left wing up against Diaz.
Jesus got no boost in the centre, and he can't do too much as to my tail if I can get the
100th serial tonight. SSG's offense, I think, has done a great job to work out of the midfield
and get into the finals third, but just can't get the final result at the other end. They
can't get a final touch past the defender. Casey have done a remarkable job of only sending
one player, and if they do send two, then the other can recover incredibly fast. And
he gives SSG a very, very slim window in which they can properly attack with any amount of
conviction. Nice assist there from Matira. That's going to central.
It's been back and forth a lot of this game. Very few points where there's been a
really long extended period of attack. And that's a lovely
victory there from Atom as T-Folkens go 2-0 against Ferdinand
Brazilsen. Nice press there just yet. Atom to the
ceiling, gets the reset button. Juicy T has great awareness from him.
Saw what Atom was trying. So someone who's been
training to really come into this series. He didn't get any goals or assists.
In the first game, they were traitors between Juicy and Vatira.
A couple of extra messages, you know, for the first time,
defensive-looking awkward.
Space Station are scaring me defensively, something.
And they're losing these 50-50s now.
They're moaning.
It must be one of those lads, they're Vatira!
Oh!
Overcoming!
Reveal, gratefully respawns and has this ball.
Yeah, great save from Zack.
Keeps it away nice and high as well,
despite the fact that Vatira was absolutely barreling down on him.
With two minutes remaining, we've still got at least three goals in this game.
These two teams are now at an absolute deadlock until the death reveal.
Chance versus Attoe, taking it low and gets saved away.
Great Delo from Zack to completely stuff the KC counter.
What a fantastic first touch as well.
Look at that, he's all the way over the top!
And it is! That puts them on his back!
The lovely turn from Zack.
The Delo into the...
An immediate ergible means a juicy...
You can get the pump, sure, but...
In the tier up, you can touch for the save.
You do not have enough of a hand to it.
fingertips are not going to be enough the 100 seconds left SSG yet again go
ahead by one they kick off from SSG trying to keep the momentum going but
Zax is trouble here chooses to go for the straight shot he does PS what to help
out Zax? Zax is 50 to the side that's an emote again for everything we know where it is
he's certainly going for them in his premiere again that's him into the
center is anyone there performing but not this time Zax the only player there's Zax
he's got a live reason to get the tie!
The double headed threat there from SSG.
Everyone's got their eyes on Zankosy sitting and then gets that reset or at least freckles for it.
With the tier and juicy dive and neither can make substantial contact reveal a stunning shot.
Crossbar down, full of a 7-2.
And ace number three seed it says, but there's certainly the kings of the region right now after recent performances.
Battling win, that Game 7 win against Rebellion.
The eSports won't come on their way to the finals.
And they're shown again why.
Here in North America, that's the reason we're at the back.
That's off with over Tira.
Tries to beat Diaz.
He's almost there, just got a bit of time to play with.
We've got this boost.
Look at him, he conjures.
Going to the center, he tries.
Reveal doesn't let him.
He's defending from the front right now from SSG.
Forward comes, Atto tries to get underneath Diaz.
And Tira!
Wait, so long!
Oh, Tira!
Is this going in?
Whoa!
What is that from Reveal?
Reveal stuns for the third and instant rebuttal.
Down the absolute throat of Carmen Corp.
And the third goal is out of nowhere.
You're living up to his name now, by pulling something out
of his hat to take this second game to all but guarantee it.
Carmen Corp are going to be left scratching their heads,
They're watching back the tape, wondering where the sleight of hand was.
All they can do for now is keep on pushing forwards, a wonder gone from reveal.
And as SSG, squeeze away a couple more KC attacks, they're gonna take game two.
And they spark some light first, they'll get an instant.
Such a well-formed game two as well.
And they look brilliant in the first game.
KC obviously could just nip ahead, but it wasn't absolutely 50-50.
This one a little bit more disparate.
Getting a couple more percentage points on calming court.
And you talk about the top of North America.
SSG have got such a good shout of being there.
It's never a rebellion, really.
NRG, I think a lot of people have seen that Luster fall.
They've become a little bit less shiny.
They've had massive errors in the Esports World Cup,
especially our most recent tournament.
And the SSG have got a really fantastic claim
through that crown.
And they're such a young team.
And they're able to form themselves.
and they're so malleable.
The fact that Diaz yesterday, you know,
12 hours ago, whatever it was,
was playing the 1v1s
and played up to the absolute neck with Nass.
Okay, it's mighty impressive in there.
This new generation of North American players
that just adore the game, constantly playing.
After a media day, they were still here grinding.
I don't know if 2v2 or 1s or what,
but they just constantly play rock, and they adore it.
You can see that passion coming through.
The way they are on the pitch.
What a goal that was from Reveal.
Juicy.
Another way to turn.
I always love it when a player knows that a ball is going
into the back of it and turns the way at the end.
Anything Juicy could have done cooler there?
It's just stayed still and just watched it.
Watched it go over his head.
It was 3-0 in game two to SSG.
Calmingcorp battled hard for that first game.
in the second, the flurry of goals in.
Two seconds.
It was enough for space station gaming.
And I'd say they're the favourites here from here.
That was a really dominant performance in game two.
Yeah, it's fantastic performance.
I think a decisive victory as well, KC.
The first one there, a little bit closer.
But the absolute one from both of these sides.
This is everything that they live for.
It's everything that they live and breathe for.
That's how his eyes show over towards the 2v2 as well.
There is Rizzo, JNAPS and Chicago, they were faking, they were trying to get those fakes going really.
It's great to see that now, really come to its form in the last few years really.
The fence is caught up, that one was too good from Carmichael.
Give it a much needed lead, but here it gets in Juicy's way.
We'll go the other way around, but the comms went good enough there for Carmichael.
The first time, I remember saying that in game one, that Pets is really Juicy,
but someone across the goal flashes there for the space station game.
in this boost and Juicy is enough on the ball to send it to the side, gets it back to Vitero.
Better teammate there from Carmen, but they're nice from it.
Juicy is still there with no boost because it's on the ball.
The all of the catch.
The full space station game, we'd love him to get gold out of nothing again here in game number three.
Race forward and tries to place it forward for Vitero there, but Zack all can close.
It's Juicy on his heels and nearly gets to flick over him.
Great speed though from Atto.
They've been managed just to race back into defense, who doesn't quite go their way.
their way. Ground pitch attempt, over there is going to be diving in. Slapping on ahead to do a
beautiful ground pitch. Yes, I saw him and I graduated him in the lobby. How nice that was.
I have to not go for one this time. I have to chance for that double sack diving across.
This time gets enough to it and can keep it away. Sack has a few players in front of him. Diaz has
got no blues though. He's trying to take out calming core. It would be too much for nothing in the tank.
Juicy
There is he landed, but just put it forwards
Trapped in the middle
KC won my missed, where they're in trouble when it squeezes out
And that is brilliant from Juicy
Yeah, he's a grounded
It's still like a jump
He doesn't care about Juicy, he just wants a jump to score himself
Juicy did so much work here and then Diaz still has the boost
Opens up the net, it's highly precise
who still had to work it past two using every single last drop of his boost tank.
Beautiful reset into an even better second touch, and the X and the Orleons go mild.
It's definitely a potential matchup that we'll see late on in this tourney.
Quality is fully there for all six of these players.
That's all the goals we're seeing. We've been subbed to Lyme up to now.
The better of this nerve game, DS.
Yes, the catch is a little bit quiet.
There's not that 50-50 as well as just trying to chase it.
There's actually to be able to get back in time.
Can he go end to end?
We've already seen the quality he possesses.
Pockets it forward.
For Thierry's already up.
Can he get past Thierry?
He actually takes him out.
And DS also takes out a Karmic court player.
Juicy's caught as well.
Now it's DS's turn.
Yes, it's in the end.
It should be defendable for KC.
Imagine if that had gone in.
It would have been brilliant.
And that's a taste of Karmic court.
So medicine there.
Get a couple of demos.
Send him off the pitch, make it a 1v3 momentarily, but the defense stays strong.
But here on the offense, not quite as strong as that defense has been.
It's a final two minutes, one pot high.
In the corner, more demos, more carnage, and the scrapyard is getting fuller by the second.
As you see, isn't able to get this ball reveal, but here it's got my boost, calming comp.
Another boost off right now, but managed to fill back up their supplies.
First shot there on that back wall.
You see, it's in there. It's a little bit dangerous right now for Kami.
But the ball is flashing in front of their goal, but they have managed to break through the lines.
They're with Batira. It's going to fall to Juicy. It goes above the goal.
He has... Can you get a touch on this? He has the same answer.
There is in the post, but there's a fake Atto. He tries to shoot.
I can't want to get it on target.
I can't tell how much of a flake that ended up being, but Juicy with the reset
can now keep the offense going. Batira back corner.
A boost is sold in here. I think he would love to give that to a teammate who's mid for him.
It will be Atto. W next chance to Juicy. He shoots.
Takes a low. He's not done that yet. And I do love the idea,
but it was read perfectly by SSG.
Xiera had to watch that one all the way.
That's an awkward bounce there off the backboard.
That's okay, we can't get it touched over here.
Here comes...
Ah!
2-1, SSG!
Zack is back with another devastating attack.
Revealed with a pass across and finally tapped through.
SSG, they're enjoying these late goals in the series
and they have absolutely been the benefactor.
Here's why I was not skit these games for two minutes left
because that's when they're coming to life.
Here comes Juicy with a great first touch, and forces it forwards.
He's up against Sackbot again, he's had.
He goes to the ceiling, can he get the stock on Atom Neely?
So he has got past him, revealed to the side, SSG.
They lost game one from misposition.
Can they do better this time?
Neely revealed, gets it to Sackbot!
It's saved!
Incredible save by Atom.
It has to be a double save, has to be a triple save, and instead,
Diaz can keep putting pressure on.
Their demos are mounting.
Karmicov are struggling to deal with the aggression.
Oh, would Juicy have caught that one as well?
There was a little nudge.
There was a tap there from material Juicy.
I don't know if Juicy had jumped in time.
Or if he had the boost.
I'm not certain either.
But once again, it's KC tripping over each other defensively.
It was a decent finish from SSG.
They found themselves two goals to the good.
And once more, when space station get one,
They get multiple from Encore, have to after back duty,
just everything you can to get that one as far as the tier is not going to happen.
Atto whips around, takes a nice first touch, runs DS out of the way,
it's already on there, four of them, it's just Zack again, who clears it out wide.
A man of the match before, let's hear from Zack.
Excellence from him.
Let's hold the grind, it's fully paying off.
Here comes Atto, he needs to get this bomb, can't do it.
reveal gets it to the side and reveal all the locks in this week's
space station gaming they'll go within one of the T-Sync
farming corps.
One more for the road. Why not mate? Why not?
This is going to be an absolutely remarkable performance from SSG.
Bear in mind guys, you are doing best of buys.
We ended yesterday with best of sevens in the 1v1s.
to be the first time. Now
these guys play each other
today. They're just me adding
Zen into the mix. Our first
ever Rocket League 3000 MMR or
greater player. Truly
remarkable achievement for
for him. They can't be caught.
They've got this series to look
at first. An SSG that's somewhat
running away with it. Yeah,
definitely. I think that. We're
feeling second particular.
Certainly a bit of fear into
at home for that to be too later.
The exact. Has been putting
North America's. Seeding wise,
number three team on his
shoulders this entire series.
He's been excellent, but a lot
They actually took Game 4 to an overtime.
They were within one goal of beating Falcons.
12 seconds later, they went to Game 5 and they ended up losing that one.
So, they've been in this position before.
They've been in a series, well-embedded in a series against a great team.
They've still not been able to see it through.
CarmenCorp, typically, they are getting to the top fours at Worlds.
They have not yet been able to break into a single Grand Final.
Despite the fact that Vitira and Carmen Corp, with Juci and Atto,
they've been able to win the majors.
It's just another hurdle and the pressure added.
Even in groups, you're going to think, as a viewer, that it must feel similar.
You've got all the typical teams around you.
You've got the same setup, even down to you, you've got the same production crew,
the same player managers, everything feels so similar.
But you walk into Dickey's arena, you know it's the world championship.
And you know that that pressure mounts even more.
in the SSU, they'll be feeling that same pressure, but they absolutely are dealing with it better.
I mean, we definitely have the mentality of players where they think,
this is my tournament. You've seen it recently at the Esports World Cup with Charlie,
who's now won it three times in three different teams.
He goes, yeah. And he goes into that, he's like, okay, I'll win this.
It's EWZ, this is what I do. The world is different and a major is different.
And for some reason, for Petira and for Kalmingkor, a World Championships is different.
He doesn't have the arrogance here at the World Championship. Once it gets in your head,
even a player like him who's so confident it's there there's that thought about to be your mind of
oh we haven't won this one before can win this one this time first they have to get through
space station gaining here and they're going to be playing falkins they've got a really tough
group the hardest group I would say but starting off pretty well it's Viteer I'm trying to drop it
down for assist towards Atto in five minutes could well be the difference maker and it could be
Reveal two, starting off with a deceptive double tap.
So it sends it down.
Tell me, Claw, what can they build upon
with their tactical time up on there?
They've been saying, imagine this,
the talk more defensively,
because they're having to get in each other's way
ever since the very first game,
they were warning signs, they didn't heed them.
Space station gaming have been ruthlessly punishing them.
Here comes Reveal.
It's got Atom and Vittira on the back,
for that special long there.
Yeah, Vittira pulls off Atom, sends it forwards.
And Atom's in position here to get something on it.
The face-to-face-touching game is clear, which is a perfect lovely first touch from Juicy and they catch most of the bump instead.
And so try to finish it off. It's nice from KC though, the touchable timeout is definitely an effective one.
Yeah, a beautiful touch from Juicy.
Yeah, that sense of shot, it turns out they're rockin' right over the bar, so disappointing from him on the follow-up.
And again, we could skip the first two minutes, I reckon, in three minutes.
We're gonna be getting a goal in front of the two.
And to the midfield, the pop's high, revealed, the only one to receive.
A lot of boost for SSG right now, but here, calmly called, we'll have to use their pit and swell.
Yeah, he's trying to beat Atto here and actually fakes him out.
Atto, hook underneath him, the carbon will sink.
Look at the amount of trouble it's led to as far as KC are concerned.
Yes, decent first touch. Atto's already there and Atto gets something on the ball.
They're going to be able to hit it clearly.
Two KC players all the way back.
So much pressure against him.
That does a lot more with that something.
Yeah, I think you wanted to actually slam that on the backboard,
but you caught it awkwardly.
Ruzel, powerful on the ball instead.
As the Rulizgals go for the first three.
And 50 from Reveal, sent it left, whoops, it has been a really harsh difference in the amount of food Spokes of these teams have.
Casey run our Planks for survival and SSG, they're playing to score.
Sent forwards there.
We're listening to this one, still scoreless, Hato against Reveal in the corner, it's the one position here for Casey,
but that makes it a little bit better, but Tira thought about coming in, it's nearly there.
He was in a different postcode. He was way too far away.
That's what I mean. They're not playing for this next goal.
There is an error on the backboard though.
A complete misjump from the SSG defender.
That's Viterra can't sink it.
Yeah, let's see here what happens today as he's slowed down as well.
I wonder if he thought he was going over the boost or just lost track of...
Yeah, Juicy was putting that ball and once again, Juicy's ballplay is huge.
Viterra, remember how he was in the first game?
Yeah, completely crazy jumping out.
out making sure that as you could hear him that time so much more chill. That's how easy
the Viper's switching series like this. That's words from Extra. We were wondering what they
were saying in the touchable time out and maybe it was. They were getting a little carried
away. Here comes Atto, he wants to get a spin reset and does, he uses it to pop it out.
The deal is there though, Space Station Gaming have come back on multiple times in this series.
They do it once more, but here he gets the bomb at the
Shirts of Sack!
They hit by Zack!
Had to get something on it indeed.
Man, the brilliant control from Zack.
Perfect placement with it.
Could be asked to clear it away.
This time it's Calmingcourt now defending this lead.
They've only won by having to wrestle it back from SSG.
Everyone they could get a single game against them at EWC on the tournament that I think
they would much rather forget.
Patera into the middle here is anyone arriving at those trying to clear a path
the juices nowhere there juicy actually got no boost this is so often it's gonna slam down
from the roof
Juicy have to hold his mouth. It was a great attempt at last just for some chaos and this time Juicy and
Here again, it's close to getting each other's way both go for the ball time. No harm done
Defensively they've been crossing each other throughout this series. Juicy this time gets it maybe towards for Tira
As that concludes, the reveal can continue at Ato's there in the corner, and he's depending on scaring me some day.
You can bear in mind as well that SSG3 haven't heard all these demos in-game before either.
They have had that be the difference maker. They've been removing players frequently.
This time, Reveal does get 1-0 on Juicy off the ball, fretted with it.
Juicy tapping Central, and she gets the resetting.
Gorgeous play! Who's there to finish?
with a no-down. It is both, it is away, until Ato, another save. That could have been a wall B.
He could have been a potato, he kicked himself, because he knows he should score the nose,
but it's not going to match as a gizmo. He keeps it going, and game five may be approaches.
They all count for one, but I think us and all of you, as the preferred to see that highlight real play go in,
an incredible set up from GC, who then gets credit with the goal at the end.
Again, 2-0 for Calmingcourt, and one minute, this is where the goals come in.
Here comes Reveal up against Viterra.
Clears it long, and we've got a split second to say the Falcons.
They've made it Brazil 3-0, maybe that was wrong because Juicy's coming forward again from that wall.
Looking for Bumps. Juicy to me has been the MVP for Calmingcourt in this series.
And it's been Zack for Space Station.
Here is DS, the Brazilian tries to get on forward and he's something soon.
Here is Zack with Juicy. Great block once more. Reveal to the seeding.
Atto should have it, has to avoid the gold screen.
And he does.
And maybe Casey, if they're enough participants,
they'll say, ah, the DS2 wants to reveal,
reveal to let me get it to the side.
And it reveals positioning for me has been really fantastic.
He's been exactly where SFG need him at all times.
He's been getting fantastic demos too.
Being game number four, I am so happy to say
their ball goes well, which it is the coming up right now.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Game number five between two of the mouthiest teams we've got at the world championship.
It's actually a great save at the end there from Juicy. I think he had to send that one into the
crossbar and make sure his car was angled in such a way that when it bounced back onto him,
it went to the side rather than into his own goal. And the tactical turn up for Calmycorp
has worked. They still have theirs. I wonder if they'll take it. We'll have to wait and see.
I think he's going to be in the middle of it all.
There was a game of spin and ten ball that falls down by a thick timeout that was 6 to
Balkans and 2 for MIBR.
6 to be there.
And here, it is a lot closer.
We go to game 5.
I've not heard the call, but there's going to be a timeout so far.
for SSG. I can only assume they will because I think it would be silly
delis if they don't. I might just want to get on with it.
Maybe they feel they've got enough, maybe they feel that it's the game
or the goal. Maybe they've got to be four of them.
Let's wait and see, maybe. Sorry, I'm not sure they're replaying.
I didn't really appreciate how far me that touch from Juicy was.
Oh yeah, landing and then instantly pops out straight into the center
and completely catches SSG off guard and you mention dropped into middle.
Juicy has been the MVP so far well no silly Billy behavior here from space station. They have taken their time out
SSG's coach expert is indeed
For the American talking to his team whichever nice smile on
Nice to see for calming corp definitely players where their hearts on their sleeves
You can tell how they're feeling based on body language and how they're looking and that's she looking a bit pensive
You know, this is a team that's trying to build themselves up as these big bads
You know, I mean that love to trash talk and love to get in their opponents faces
But we have too much of that from SSG and that's I what what he's got a finger. Hmm an extendable point of finger
I don't know where he's got that from but I saw him tap somewhere near the scoreboard
I mean, let's do that again. He actually uses that on his controller really quickly
It's incredible the way he plays the game. He should adapt and play normal
The thing is even if he did that that's still more normal controls than Rizo ever had true
That's true all KBM users those
And Johnny, the tri-factor of 31200, using the five-tribe.
Oh, dear, well.
Not too much longer now.
We go back into this one.
I think that through SSG, they know that this farming cop has got weak spots,
but they have to keep putting pressure on the defensively.
They have to try and put the ball in between two of them.
The chance of double-committing right out of the farming cop are high.
You see the SCG are gonna realize that one, but it's Casey the start game five on the proper and a big difference
Make it just from the eye test is the amount of demos
Casey evades them a lot better
All SSG have just not been going forward as much but that really is the secret source
But I feel SSG need to get back to remove the players from the pitch because otherwise the terror and calming core
We're gonna do it straight back to you
Bumps away by Juicy and then asso fakes out
The next defender of the tier is there, let's make again, Casey are taking this one slowly taking that time, I'd love to see Akoshoot!
Oh you are safe from Zack! Halsey Wrexler won a theorem, almost connects! It falls to Zack in the end, can he give SSG the 2-0 swing?
Yes he can, it's a goal goal in the end!
It felt like it was going to be Karling called, but with 3 fakes later...
Deft, Casey, what a press, SG. A perfectly placed flick from the later 2v2 man.
Zack is a master on defense and even greater on offense.
And Zack, he takes the ear off, he comes back so much stronger, but the tear is right back.
He's a man who'll never quit. Zack has another flick.
Devastating an attack is Zack, asshole. Pushing it out wide.
Zack is causing all sorts of chaos. Steals the bruise on his way out.
out. DS, push this to the side. Zack up against Juicy. Sierra forwards. KC to the hero right
now and SSG seems to have found theirs. Real though, he has been such a fantastic player
for SFG so far. Can't get it too much further than Juicy, tracks it over to Wartzak, popped
up behind the midfield. Both teams have a claim to this board, but DS is going to be
stealing it away. Lovely turn of Procreate, and his positioning has been remarkable.
Athlen, a reset. Into the double.
He can't get the last contact.
So close there from Athlen.
I said, KC might in a hero moment.
It was nearly there from the Belgium.
They're a man one-nil down, Athlen.
Pops it high again. Reveal is there.
Space nation not letting come in called
Breathe, the tier with the catch.
Saxon front-runners, that wins it cleanly.
But it's only as far as juicy, particularly
They can't reveal. I think he can.
Oh! It's so unfortunate for Matera!
Matera locked in the bomb.
In the bump he does everything right but gets slumped straight into the ball without that into the media return for KC and double that chance for Juicy.
It's going to be an assailant all of a sudden, SSG, they pushed out the other end, bumps are on their tongues now.
Oh, it's that couple of touches, couldn't quite get the angle that he needed.
Against revealed, going to have this one rolling over KC's goal line.
Juicy, into the centre, Batira just frontflips that one.
This one gets something on it. Reveal decent catch, that's always there for him though.
And Batira has spawned in an awkward position there on the left side.
Maybe he could have spawned on the other side and had some momentum to play with.
Halfway through game five. SSG, they lost their last game five and they've just lost the lead in this one.
This is due to trying to wait, you're cute with it there.
Reveal wide to hand it to Zack.
Zack, then what would happen if you slam it and no,
you either take the touch or I guess you connect bigly,
but they just couldn't.
They needed to take it up the wall.
Atom sees it happen and waits for the fumble
to punch it home.
And that was Zack's best touch in this series,
but it's been so good throughout.
So they can step back up in the last couple of minutes
of this game five.
Materia to a pre-tumping Atom, it's nearly there.
She helped it along to the side.
Juicy wants to get from Matt Lethfall,
If you've been devastating in that profession, here it is.
That's how safe I think.
It's great side to confidence.
Three jumps now, but can't make it on.
They still got a lot of work to do.
Diaz, he gets it out wide.
Batira is there, but can't get anything on it.
So trying to take it.
He's playing brilliantly right now, Atom.
Batira, can he get the number?
It's a bit juicy! Clear to the side!
Their central once more revealed. Pops it long.
Diaz with no boost, can't catch up to it.
Party much momentum.
Teara, batonboard, wants to Diaz.
Diaz does get it over revealed.
He can finally fingertips yet again.
Shaw down! A miss for KC.
The chances are erupting.
Yeah, once again, so near yet so far for Atto.
He looks most likely for Carminko,
but that was going to be a chance again, reveal.
Get something on it.
Juicy shoots the ball.
Yes, the crossbar is dead!
But there's Batira and the pressure's been coming at this time,
Carmen Cordova!
The net has been peppered and Carmen Cordova,
the space station gaming on the grill.
They feel the fire beneath them, SSG.
They've now trailed by one goal with 90 seconds remaining.
Take kickoff there.
And Reveal is going to have to build it all back from his own goal line,
but Juicy doesn't let it, and they've touched there from Tiaz Batira.
Too much boost to play, and that's a bit close to his fennec.
BTS is in there, popping up against him. Juicy, great win there against Reveal.
Here is Vitero, he has 100 moves as well.
He can be incredibly dangerous, let me position, get it!
And the bomb! And baby, that's the series!
Now he can pop off. Clear by two.
The front lands how he wanted.
No one saved this time.
As Vitero comes to a boil, looks at SSG, tells him to sit down.
Still, 70 seconds and late goals have been the theme of this series.
Yeah, last time for the T-Rex, I guess I'll just have too much splash damage.
This time it was perfectly waited for from the kickoff.
SSG right back at you, Stumpy.
And SSG have so much more calm.
They're thinking, they're waiting, they are trying to find their time.
It's the Magi Gang, a little bit too long for T-Rex, and then losing this series.
There's a ripe smile there from Atto as well, a couple of times.
Can't quite believe that they've left the team back so easily, so cheaply.
Space Station, they keep on going, Juicy to the ceiling, Diaz is there, Batira.
They're close, it's well over, and here is Atto.
They've only got one goal this game, but he's certainly the difference maker.
Into the centre, Juicy is there, Casey so far forwards, that third man completely braved, but Diaz at wide.
Makes sense from Zack.
Next man to it is going to be Batira, straight into the corner, and a loose grab as well.
He's going to be keeping the advantage on their side.
This is G-Long, Boos.
That tag can't last for too long.
She has a swear in the sky.
Gets it over one.
This is taking away precious seconds right now.
That's all Kami thought needs to do for Tira.
Into the middle.
This is where it says she needs to fight a good chance here.
But it's actually getting this reader up.
But Juicy pushes it to the Tira.
Final dying seconds on this game.
And the Boos grab from D'Az.
Maybe will slow the offense.
But this is going to be about time wasting here.
Juicy, he's essential for him.
Nobody is there, so Tack can collect.
to his defense and will immediately turn into offense from the backboard.
Atto a big clear, a big win as this series would be if they can do it.
No time left. Last chance to loon. Calls last orders.
Carming Corp. Take down SSG and there you go to near that number one spot in their group.
It was a hard fought battle once again.
Again, the calming corp have done enough, and SSG, after two trips to champions field,
have got absolutely nothing to show for it. They will go up against Maiden Brazil a little
while later.
It's going to be an elimination match.
North and two for SSG. That is not a team, and it's going to sound silly, that deserves
to be North and two currently. The issue is, they've fallen to Falcons, and in their fourth
both going to five. An incredible team heading from North America, but this
format is brutal. So long as you don't finish last you're gonna make it through.
Made in Brazil and SFG, they decide that later on and first in the group is
gonna be decided between KC and Falcons and they'll get later on too.
It looks so good for space station gaming at the start of that game, five. Zack played
brilliantly but it wasn't quite enough. Carminkops spent the rest of the game
building themselves up and they get their win, they get their revenge for the esports world cup
and it is looking pretty good to be coming in court right now but how is it feeling?
K-Court managed to get the redengineer Ato congratulations you look elated right now you
look super happy it must mean a lot. Yeah of course I mean the best of five honestly like game five
we lost to Speciation and the WBC so we got the revenge and we took it so I'm happy of course.
Yeah, of course. Coming into the matchup, did you have a little bit of nervousness maybe knowing what had happened last time?
I mean, not really, but the nerves is because we can finish first of our group and we play Falcons after, so of course it was an important match and we had to win, so yeah.
Do you feel like now that you've got that energy high, it's going to be easy to carry that momentum into the next matchup, or do you find it difficult maybe to transfer that over to the next matchup?
I think it's a bit different.
Falcons is a new team, I swear.
And we got slapped in the U.S.
as well, so we have to take revenge again.
And it's really important matches,
because we know how important it is to be top six
in this format.
Well, hey, you got one down, maybe another one after that, too.
I'm looking for you guys.
Coach Exra was saying that it was nice
that you had that one matchup yesterday.
For you as an individual,
do you like that single matchup?
Or would you prefer maybe a couple of the groups out of the way?
I mean, yeah, it's a hard group, again, but I mean, I like it, you know, if you want to be a champion, you have to win against everyone.
So I can help complain.
That's awesome. Hey, you cannot complain. You got the redemption and maybe another one later.
All I got to say is congratulations, Apto.
Thank you.
Thanks for your time and good luck going forward.
And going forward, we must. It's another long day here on day number three here at the Rocket League World Championships.
Stay tuned.
I want to try and experiment.
All right.

No, I got a blow in the cartridge again like no cartridge, but you'll need a username user name

The action continues on day 3 of the Rocket League World Championship for 2026 with
Carming Corps happened to go to game five against SSG, but ultimately locking it down on champions field there to know
It's a group a and poor space station to high quality matches that they have played that they looked like a top team
But unfortunately they grew up against King Corp and Falcons and fall just short
But that's what it takes you won't become a world champion
You gotta be to become the best you got to beat the best through one up as one that series SSG
Maybe the one that got away
But it looked like a gang five the hallway as soon as you saw that lined up on the schedule way
It was it was pretty impressive on the other side of things
Falcons managed to get that one done in three. I believe it was against MIT
So they are two and oh in the group group a looking nice and clean in the stain
It's like a look at those highlights
Oh, because there was plenty of them a lot of crossbar down sort of own goals
Yeah, I mean core to the help keep SSG alive. Yeah, we actually saw three
Technical own goals where it hit crossbar. It was probably going out
But KC put it back in three sessions actually was a little bit off, but they still got some help from KC
But KC when they're on offense and they get all three members of working it together
It's a beautiful so yeah, you can see if you notice from KC as well
I think they're lacking a little bit of confidence from that EWC run, but a huge game five performance
I think that can really push them forward and maybe put on a roll against the Falcons matchup later on today
That's gonna be spicy that'd be looking for that rematch as well with space station
I think they lost all bars, K-Bats.
They looked strong throughout.
Just couldn't get the jump down.
Yeah, they got to learn how to finish.
That's the SSG's kind of problem right now.
Going against Falcons in K-Port, early no-ing moves.
That might play differently for him later on.
You expect him to get the win against MIVR when they play him later on.
And then going into bracket play.
The two quality losses on the Reds make it to maybe the best team of the game.
It means something.
And the two great wall plays there in game four by Juicy.
And then Batir in game five.
The air drop will bump off the wall to secure game five.
Looking at the office of demos though.
Two series in a row.
I got it.
We had this thing on over here with office of demos.
The team that had more always kept losing matches.
So now we're trying to see a two get
matching the row office of demos comes out on top.
But I mean, the series are just so tight.
This really took a little moment.
Little players from KC where they start peppering in that
crossbar, crossbar, crossbar, follow, follow, follow.
Makes just enough of a difference.
Only one to get the one.
Oh, OK.
Gips, I think I can handle the tiebreaker situations.
I had a group scenarios here.
I think it's pretty simple.
So if Falcons wins their match against Carmen core, three, oh, they're top of the group.
But if they win three, one, they're still top of the catch.
So I think if they just beat Carmen core, they're top of the group, no matter what.
Yes.
They court Falcons win and in you'll be the number one seed.
That's why we're going to explain it again because it's too long.
And then obviously third place in the group to stay station versus made in Brazil, whoever
loses is out of the tournament.
That's true.
That's right.
I have to say it's part of my contract.
if but if they lose by it. No, it doesn't matter. We've got a lot of Rocket League to work through
on both our mainstream and the alternate stream on the alternate stream. Again, that was that
3-0 from the Falcons over made in Brazil to kick off the day. Wildcard going to be taken to the
stage against Vitality looking for a huge bounce back here, CJ. Yeah, two group detains that haven't
got a win yet. Obviously, Vitality got absolutely moped by VP yesterday as well. So that's a big
matchup wildcard looking to bounce back. And I think they can do it if they step up. We saw it.
little pep voice and they can't do it, but I'm not going to actually back them to do it.
That's cool. I don't know. Do you blame me?
Somewhere there, folks. What's the, let's go to the other side of group D here for our next match on the mainstream.
It will be Virtus. Pro taking on the gentle mates as these teams prepared to get going.
And, you know, I love the team chemistry out of mates right now.
We saw Nass yesterday in the 1v1 sitting by himself, didn't know what to do with handshakes or all that.
But right after is when the entire team comes out to congratulate him
It does really feel like these guys are just brothers playing rock league
So I like the team chemistry coming out of mates and I'll see one of the best teams in the world
They won that boss a major
Sure did too. I mean listen, but did yeah, we're about VP talk flip one for right now
Yeah, the problem with VP 3-1 win over vitality if they drop this though
They just have a head-to-head match against Wildcard to make it out of the group head-to-head tiebreaker
A lot's on the line here. The Paris or the Boston major champions here on the mainstream the first time
I think the season has been really good so far
I think we've formed some regionals before the major and the first major I think in the group stage
It was pretty good within music single game
But then when we started playing it from the crowd it started crumbling a bit. I mean it happened
But it was pretty cool. It was probably the biggest time ever
We're feeling prepared, I think we start from things to work on, but I think when the tournament
is still going on, I think we will keep improving and I think we're doing a good job.
I mean, if we can just come in with the same mindset as we did, like, I think in the beginning
of all the tournaments, I think we'll be fine.
Playing Worlds is also, it's always an achievement, I think qualifying for the LAN every time
is a really big thing.
I mean, I'll always try to play my best and be my best.
I think we're just preparing the same way we prepare for the majors.
I don't think it's like a different tournament.
I think we should just do the same things we did at a major.
And the one thing we want to prove is that Jantumates is the best team of the season.
And of course, we get into our next match here.
I'm standing with coach Snasky, but it's always great to see you here.
I think you're still waking up though, right?
It's a bit of a...
We're not in game hours yet.
It's okay. Let's go. Hopefully the teams feel a little bit better here. You've welcomed them up. You jostled them
I mean, they're not 30. They're dead. We're over the hill now. Yeah for the squad though
Specifically, I know you're a coach that likes to you're very vibe oriented, right?
You'd like to make sure the team's connecting in in more than just on the field
Have you been doing that? There's a ping pong table over there if you've been getting to do another activities
What is the change coming into worlds? No, we haven't really done much because we couldn't really agree
I really want to go top golf, but they wanted to go mini golf and I
I just know I was gonna smoke them so I was like, let's not be bothered. That's why they don't want to do it
At the bootcamp we are a ping-pong table and we got a little a little gun. I don't know what it's called like a dark
Or nerf gun. Yeah
Some fun stuff that's good. Yeah, and that's what I like about the squad is every time I look oh, RG's Johnny
You'll wake up
Anyway, yeah, hopefully they're working for the game here.
I'm coming into the real talk when we look at the actual game play.
What more are we about to see here?
Where are the boys at?
Because the last two tournaments you guys have been in,
Racket felt like you guys fell a little bit shorter than you probably would have in both of them.
Yeah, I mean, to be honest, the scrims that we've been playing this time around
has been the worst we've ever had.
That's a good time though, usually.
But I think that it's because we're actually sticking to what we want to do in tournaments.
I'm hoping that it's going to pay off.
But yeah, I mean, I think in DWC, we lost to a P against NIP.
Yeah.
And we didn't bring our best either.
In Paris, I felt like we played pretty good.
But again, we played against two opponents.
They're strong opponents, yeah.
Very strong, right?
Ended up in the final.
Yep.
So yeah, I mean, we're just going to keep doing us
and see how far it can get us.
Hey, well, I love you guys doing your stuff
because it's always fun to watch.
So good luck in your matchup.
We're going to take a look at your opponents now.
I think our year from the start, we started out very strong.
We just formed as a team, as Redacted.
We're probably, I think, one of the best teams
in North America.
We unfortunately had a bit of a fall down after split, too.
Now going into Worlds, we feel the best we ever felt
after all our practice and everything we've done
as a team, so we're really excited.
We know, no matter what, eventually this time's gonna come
and we're gonna have to be the best we can be
because Worlds is everything at the end of the season.
My dream has always been to play in front of a crowd
and two-piece and wavy memory.
Also, I haven't played in front of an RLCS crowd yet.
That's our main first goal,
but after we get that, we wanna obviously make it in
to as far as we can go.
What it means to me, I think it's definitely by far
the most important tournament of the year.
I mean, I just like, this is everything.
Like, this is what you wanna get to.
Well, I'm looking to prove that we're still
just as good as Blue One, if not better.
I definitely think we're the best game of the band,
which need to prove it on the stage.
the next day. We're going to
play some games. Virtus Pro
looking good coming off day
number one of groups, but we'll
see what the next day brings.
I'm back with coach memory.
You know, I was just talking
to those guys. Are they awake?
Yes, I'll wait for the big
stretch. It's earlier hours.
But as a coach, how do you make
sure you get that kind of those
juices flowing? It's a little
earlier for the gamers, but I
think we're feeling ready. We
basically just had more much
rooms get here earlier, play
some ranked and just get just
That was a great win for you guys.
I mean, over Vitality, of course, looking at this match,
not going to be easy as well.
Do you feel like this is a step up or a step down?
Do you feel it's kind of equal?
How are you looking at this match up
after your victory the other day?
I mean, I think they're obviously a really good team,
but I think Vitality was also a really good team.
My message to the players is always the same,
like the goal is to win worlds.
It's just one of those steps.
You just have to trust in the game plan and play well.
Yeah, and then, I mean, I heard your game plan,
at least a football plan.
Yeah, I hit all, you know, I take some booze,
maybe score or not.
Yeah, it's good stuff,
It's been working so far, but that was again just one of matchup coming into a new day
I think a while ago asked Jorias this and he said yes
Sometimes the next day you feel a little bit different
Do you ever have that with the players where they wake up and they're like a coach something's a little off today?
And you have to fix that 100% like there's always some variance between days especially at like a land
You never know how you're gonna feel especially going around the first game
So we just are just as we as needed. That's always like let's just take a game see how it goes
Hopefully for you guys didn't keep up what you did yesterday and carry that on against channel mates here
good luck in your match memory. Thank you.
Curtis Bro and gentlemen,
it's preparing for their out here at the World Championship,
and you heard Snasky talking about it.
Like it wasn't the performance they were hoping for at Paris,
but they were the gatekeepers of Paris,
only being beaten by the grand finalists at that turn.
Yeah, well, it's not about how you start the season.
It's how you finish.
And they also started the season in incredibly fine form.
You can't start any better than winning the Boston Major,
but it's all about the world championships now gives.
This is a tough matchup. VP got a good job done.
I thought I was much already that must be real here. It's 12.05 guys. It's not early. All right. Come on
Let's get ready for the games
Lunchtime
Both coaches like it's kind of early for the gamers right now
Oh, but I have to go again. There's some of us do wake up before noon. Oh, I mean they can get over themselves
Listen, you're professional wake up. Get ready for the match plug in
Jadlett is know who you think is gonna win the progressive fan, but we'll make our picks on the desk CJ
I tell you what, VP, you've got memory, great coach, two-piece, who's next up, and then you've got a young gun in Wavy.
Shot before a ball and we're on to something last season.
How bad were the Reddles?
It's the question actually, just on that. They're beating Vitality now. How bad were you, Reddles?
I know you're watching right now, but I think Gentlemates should be able to get a job done here, get the win, and unfortunately for VP, you can't beat two EU teams in the one group.
I'm incredibly impressed by VP. This is two hot days in a row.
Normally, these powering teams around that 12 range, they've won hot day, but they crumble.
They took down by telling, look great, but the Mates is on another level.
I have to go to the Mates until I see them lose Mates, I think, when this pretty convincing.
Mates?
Pretty convincingly. Wow. I don't know if it's going to be convincing.
I do think that General Mates are going to end up taking this win.
It's going to be a battle of VP's defense.
How much can they really just hold it together against a General Mates onslaught?
VP has a chance, talks a great player.
two reasons really your wave is talented.
The gentleman is on top, just by my own.
He has been on top of it.
I really, I will say, here's the thing,
if Curtis Pro wins this match,
I'll predict him until they lose.
I'll put the money on the line,
I'll put my money where my mouth is.
I was one of the biggest fans of this team
at the beginning of the season
and they broke my heart too many times.
I think gentlemen are gonna take this one down.
I am picking gentlemen on this one for them.
But if they win, if Curtis Pro wins,
I'll predict Curtis Pro for every match
moving forward until they're out of the tournament.
Coins got him, coins got him here.
We'll see if it could it's been been streaky so far across the course of the day, but gentlemen's man
I just there's something about like yesterday. They looked fine
Virtus Pro has been good, but the quality the opponent continues to increase here right down the middle though
Told you first pro they had a lot of fans that beginning this season
They continue to have fans people want to see the talk show folks. Do we get another podcast?
Let's get into the match
Fantastic we are into the middle the thick of the world championship for 2026 and these two teams both hoping to make it for that
final stages for the gentleman versus Virtus.Pro.
Virtus.Pro brought us on to the talk show, but we'll see what
gentlemen have to say now that they've taken a seat at the
table. Big match up here between gentlemen and Virtus.Pro
stacked. Game one brought to you by progressive getting
started. This match going to have a lot to say about the
story of the 2026 World Championship. Two teams with
identical goal scoring here both teams beat their opponent 7 to 4 in total
goals here's the big difference as Nass looked ahead towards the net and
Torsowski gentlemates in it at three games against Wildcard requiring it
over time in game 3. Bird as Pro did it over four games against Vitality the
only time they conceded any of those goals was in the one game they lost in
game 2 a couple of over times that could have been emails they went about 12
seconds between them, but Curtis Pro looks real good yesterday. If they can parlay that
into success again, they could be at the very top of group team.
It'll be interesting to see both teams level of preparation. We're already getting a little
bit of early offense from Curtis, but they get sent back to their own half. Both teams
were timed to look over the previous match-ups. You can't argue that this is a gentleman's
This conference matchup, definitely probably expected vitality to be the team that won yesterday,
but it's a birdie, or a birdie, birdie's call to the conference, especially this guy, talk on the ball.
With three set, doesn't get it past one, 2-2 points to the corner, not a big score chance out of both teams in the opening minute.
Talk brought back down to earth just a little bit in the one series he played with vitality yesterday,
As Naskin stay onto this ball, and there's Wavy to push it back to the corners.
Good ball across.
Easily sent away again. Now Naskin will rotate out, so there's nobody to pass to.
Now Naskin is trying to get the attack alive. It's going to be Archie.
I wonder if the flip reset would have nothing to do after that.
And this should just about end the gentleman's attack.
Over top, he goes from averaging 500 plus for a game, almost 600 during the play-in.
And then you get a big step up in Vitality, but a team that they handled very well.
Yeah, so Tauk there too on that last shot. Good speed there, but he just couldn't get there fast enough.
He's up not early enough. NAS, able to cut that playoff.
Wally was looking for a double in the corner, got blocked away, back-to-back to two-feet.
Two-feet, picks the ball. Demo on the play. Wavy takes out Archie. Tauk went to Moab, almost got the dug,
but NAS held on defensively. Who's your follow-up shot?
I like this year from talk to sketch it across to try to get the ball to wavy the ladies your touch was just too
Heavy if you get back to the defense, they're just playing more work. It's meanwhile halfway through this game
Gentleman's offense. She asked the only one shot to hit me
Boss key trying to do a lot with absolutely nothing in the tank now talk will take charge
Got our team underneath right the play defense to the back wall and done so and that's well walked away off the car two-piece down
Naps
Looking to bring this back around towards center, but the defensive vertus bro too strong
And that was kind of what the desk was talking about how will they defend against the team and gentlemen?
Do you know how dangerous they are talk with another big stop and nobody else circling through the front?
So this is an easy clearance for BP. Yeah, look at the shot totals now for our gentleman
It's just nothing toward the net for Archie. I think I've only had one
I'm not sure exactly how many Nass has, but just doesn't feel like their offense
It's coming together at all.
Curtis Perl, a really forcing gentleman.
It's a kind of play catch up here.
Not allowing him to get too much control.
Gentleman's a fighting for some field space.
Look at his mask.
He's going to try to put his third shot on.
But again, easily blocked off.
Even that one from Austin, easily blocked off.
Now Archie wants to follow him.
He takes it to the corner.
That gets him even so much time to get together.
And just like that, Curtis.
All talked out a two piece just trying to squeeze that by a couple defenders now
off the downfield and wavy through traffic able to stop that from going
any further network good ball in front again but nobody there for it and
I'll give will try his luck you tell me does the team did not have many assists
aren't you Naskin away with zero helpers in the series with Wildcard it was
who had all three of his team's assists in that opening matchup.
Top, net word easily sent away by Archie.
Two-fies will dump it back in and he can go back up for this ball.
But Wavy will take the shot instead, took one out on the way through.
Still not really threatening here in the final minute.
Both teams both seem to be going through the motions here offensively.
And Wavy is going to dribble through.
It's an open net and a score!
This is, you see Nass, he thinks the ball's gonna pass,
he's not, he has no eyes on Wavy.
Look at that perfect wave dash, right in the ball,
he knew he caught him out.
So well done from Berners-Brown,
especially from Wavy there having the composure
in that moment.
What was the diet there?
You got a man right in front of you on the ground
and third man just goes right in over top of him.
Cause he doesn't see him, he doesn't see Wavy there.
So he thinks the ball, he thinks he's got a bounce
and a free shot and that's what blew Nass off,
he didn't have that.
It did look open, but if you see it, if you don't see it,
well, if you see it, you realize the trap was set.
Oh, now you see him, now you don't.
Just a one-nil lead for Curtis Brown, now.
Into action on target and saved the way by Tocque.
Bill Skye, this one up to the ceiling as well.
Gentlemen, see to get back onto this ball,
and Nass does just enough.
But Wavy holds everything in his hands.
Now it's going to be Oskie.
Soft shot on.
Double commitment between Tocque and Two-Fees.
Free ball now for Gentleman, and it's swatted away by two feet.
Nass now.
The 1v1 semifinalist winner yesterday, Archie, down to ground.
And this final eight bounces.
Vertus, pro, hang on after a kind of a tarowing sequence
defensively for what felt like at least 20 seconds.
Well, it took five minutes for Giz to be wrong.
He said that was going to be domination, not a chance.
I feel like gentlemen's are gonna have to kind of build themselves into this series
And I think that it's just really it goes to show you just how much
Vertice for that speed that efficiency when they're on the ball how much it caught them off
The offense did ramp up toward the end for me sitting there with 11 shots
But for the early part of that game stacks, they were empty when it came to offensive firepower
Yeah, not a lot of quality opportunities
really for either side and I think
channel mates actually had maybe the
better of the chances but the defensive
vertus bro so strong and they I think
you know they kind of forced channel
mates into not quite a panic because
players at this level in the back
caliber don't panic but it definitely
felt like a little frustration
settling in at the end. Yeah because
you know you see the pressure you're
down by one you're doing your best to
try to score but it just doesn't come
up the way that you wanted to and I
And I think when you look back at it for gentlemates,
I think they understand the adjustments they need to make.
I'm expecting a lot more firepower coming at them
offensively as we get ready for game two.
So Virtus Pro with their fourth shutout
in five games of the main event.
And they've done it to the likes of Vitality three times
and gentlemates for their port.
That is unbelievable.
Now, Archie, let's pick this up.
Tresca get quick follow.
Two-piece.
Look, the first shot on here for Vertus.
And now you're going to pay attention to gentlemates now.
OK, when they hit on the ball, what are they doing here?
Oskie brings it up.
Just straight control.
A lot of glue.
Couldn't get the flip reset.
But Dave wasn't able to stay with it
and bring it down field.
Controlling the possession for gentlemates
going to be very important here.
Have to watch to see are they going to ruin the ball away,
just give it back to the defense,
or are they going to try and make something work,
pull somebody out for these 50-50s,
maybe even get past two.
That's the big difference, Nathan.
Hawke has two feasts in support behind him,
but he'll have to stay home as Nass dies in.
The weird thing for gentlemates, you
go back to that series with Wildcard,
not having that many assists as a team.
It's very rare at this level to see a team with,
less than half the number of assists that they have goals. I mean, a lot of times it requires a team play to set anything up.
A lot of solo plays coming up from gentlemates yesterday.
Can't rely on that here as great as nas is.
It'll work better as a unit.
Little bit of control here from wavy.
Playing this close, little bounce. You see Archie a little thrown off.
So Toss will take it, look, double, try to throw off the defense there and Oskie out for the back pass, even though Nass is uncomfortable, Archie's behind him.
But this, there's a demo on the back, maybe a chance here for Toss.
I saw, oh my God, follow from Tupi! Goal!
All Ironsides coming to the rescue one time for Tenomates, they had Oskie beat, and then Nass off the respawn, had to guess, just couldn't get there in time.
Burness throw in front again. Wow, the demo opens up so much space and then when last back you saw the defender just
It's a hard shot to guard because it's so high
You don't know if it's called
Bump or not and then when it's not you get you have to go out the follow up just very well done for Verna
They apply the pressure at the right time
Oh talk dove in for that boost steel, but he got beat to it opportunity now for tellmage
But Oskie gets wanted to the back wall.
Now talk this way if you run it forward.
Going after Nassan, he does well to avoid contact
and get the clearance.
Larchie, he got the 40, he wanted to make a play.
So he jumps there to try to force the defender
into a tough spot.
But now he's got to hurry to get back.
This ball's still in the corner.
This is kind of free though.
Nass asking him, thinking this, there's the shot.
And there's the goal!
Oskie with the equalizer.
Their first goal of the series comes 10 plus or almost 10 minutes in.
Oskie perfectly placed wavy at all the boost in the world,
but just a touch too slow and that's the difference
between success and failure at the World Championship.
And it's natural to think when Naz goes up for that ball,
he's got a lot of boost to work with.
By the time you realize he doesn't and it's a fake,
then you have to guard a completely different situation.
Now Oskie, more speed, the giant getting ripped up.
Two-piece barely getting a piece of that ball as Oskie now thought about the corner
boost left it it's still gonna be there for whoever wants it is two-piece now
taking to the skies going after Lars Oscar but it's Archie there to make the
save right at the back talked out waiting on the wall for Nas to come at him
and Oskie will now take charge of that little hesitation might have cost
gentlemen. Well first touch flip reset from Archie that was nice. It's a little bit of
field positioning and you can see Verdes now started to just kind of throw the ball
into clean these beats and an awkward spot field positioning wise. The way we
will get it passed one on the way that's a clear right to two-piece off the
backboard. Nas low moves but no one's gonna challenge him there and Verdes
still sticking with this trying to throw off the defense in some way. Mila Aski
Flip, reset, play shot, the follow from Archie!
Oh, it's a four for more of Archie!
Now they're working better.
Second chance, opportunities abound now for Channelmates.
Oskie almost dunked that in himself,
but it's Archie on the doorstep to clean it up.
Almost called him Large Archie.
That's what threw me off.
That's not Large Oskie.
That's Archie.
If together does.
All right.
Oh, what a save!
And a third one, and then we get one!
That was a play out of Virtus.Pro.
Speaking of full team play here for Burness,
we've seen it before, and we're seeing it again.
Beautiful kickoff setup, great passing between Virtus.Pro.
And just like that, we're all tied up here in game two.
Game on in game two.
Oskie, overwaving.
Can he stay with it?
Yes, he can but talk with the same now now put it on target. Why not as two piece makes the same now
We go to the final minute and talk's gonna lose control for a moment now
Barely blocked by two piece two pieces and a few saves here Dazzary is barely gotten to a ball
And if not, it's an open net behind him. It's starting to come a shootout here off for Ben Temple
You can tell a lot of ruby give a talk shot
Watch out! Our wavy will secure it!
But Tark had that one all the way!
Ah, what a read by Tark.
Nass just let it get away, and Tark was all over it.
Like he had him downloaded.
43 seconds to go.
Serve it up!
What a gentleman's half for an answer.
Kick off, Nass. Has a pop.
Plays it close for the 50.
Aske.
Wants to get on top of that.
Look at two-piece.
Trying to work the clock.
You're falling from way beyond 50.
Stoyed Oskie off the ball, but he's still
maintaining contact.
30 seconds to go.
Gently makes.
I mean, they can't.
I don't think they should go too down to an obvious.
They've got to be able to pull this one back.
But the tire's not on their side.
And a 15.
Oskie's going to get out of the course.
Need some help from behind.
It's Archie!
Throw it out of somewhere!
There's Archie!
Why would you need him?
And my goodness, it's always pinpoint precision.
His shots have been perfectly placed every time.
Two out of the three have come from Archie.
He's been quite large in this one.
Two-piece now across, four toss.
Nasseter steps.
Two-piece gotta be careful.
One second, overtime.
Lo-Mangus talk makes the save.
Nobody on the door step.
All right, the Verna's calls some deer on the kickoff.
No, Jettemates did, though, gave Nass that one in midfield.
RGF, shot low and two P's can collect.
More pressure, though, from gentlemates.
They want to keep Verna's here, trying to stop him out.
VP went one and one in the two overtimes
they played with Vitality yesterday.
Both those overtimes combined, less than the amount
of time they spent in this one.
Meanwhile, Gentlemates played two minutes of overtime in game three to put away a wild card.
Here's Tupi's through the corner.
Feed Oskie easily.
Going over top of Archie.
Well, now Sparrow got knocked to the side and still made the start.
That was very dangerous.
Now, Gentlemates kind of play catch up here.
Berners trying to throw up their rhythm.
Archie leaves it for Oskie.
Tupi's right at the end.
So cleanly.
Oh, wait.
That one gets a little bit of space.
The space is all far again and Wavy gets a good touch.
Two P's will be able to follow it.
They try to get away, but it's just a little too slow.
Possession, looming back and forth between these two teams.
A couple of mistakes on both sides, but no one punished.
Oh, Archie got bumped on his way back.
He will recover, and he grabbed the corner boost
just ahead of Wavy.
So he's got nothing in the tag.
Two P's has to take over.
There's talk for the win, and it's blocked away by Nass.
Good case, he's there from Nass.
Just floating right under the ball,
has to make sure, talk make contact.
He was hitting Nasa's car, or the ball was at least.
Now Oskie with rule.
Can Oskie score?
Can Oskie finish the game?
He did it!
We're done!
Large Oscar, second goal.
Game winner.
Even with the defenders coming on, no problem.
It's like he wasn't even there.
Perfect placement.
Really on every goal from Archie and Oskie so far
in game two and now we're all level at a game of peace.
Wow.
You can see the game just ramping, ramping, ramping up.
I mean, look at those numbers from Oskie.
Seven shots, three saves, couple to most to his name.
Huge impact, but also,
he wasn't the only one getting involved.
Grace had from last to drop it.
And then anytime it looked like Oskie could score the archer.
He was able to place it perfectly every time.
Everybody getting involved from Gentlemates, because Virtus.Pro really did put on the pressure.
And they made Gentlemates play at a certain pace.
And Gentlemates rose to the occasion and took this game into their own hands.
And like I said, series tied at one-on-one apiece.
Gentlemates now 2 and 0 in the over times they have played
As they've dragged this series back here in group D against Virtus Pro
Both teams will still have their timeout as we go to game three
and
for both of these squads
Yeah, they'll be
very interested to see how
Wildcard is fairing against Vitality.
Vitality looked like they have returned to form.
Up to all in their series against the Oceania squad
as we kick off game number three.
You can tell everybody's still kind of
in that same mode from game two.
Already a little bit of a fast start.
Look at Oskie, look who's still working for it.
Archie, oh, got it over, it's hog.
Will it get punished for?
No Archie with the speed to bring out the defense.
Gellemates trying to outpace the bird
and seeing if he can throw them off.
Fenty goes through, but not enough.
That's Wavy got a piece.
That's off of the solo.
Talk, flip, reset.
Wavy came in, contact.
Archie has to save.
Wavy turned off it.
It looked like the defender had it, but.
Wonder what might have been.
Here goes Oskie.
Throw one near the mark.
Two feasts, very sure handed with this
Coming up his own back wall.
Dry the ground pinch, but it was just a little wide anyways.
And now Nats will settle things down in the air.
A nice toggle up to CLA.
Get more more.
Set up for a shot.
No, Nats took it away from Archie.
And now Nats will bring it up.
Can he get the pass to Archie?
And he's got it back to him.
Archie scores, gentlemen to the lead.
By the time this looks like they haven't been on the same page.
And then they break one of these out.
right over to RG and Nass has been looking he hasn't scored yet in this
series but already in the first minute plus of this game he has been looking
for that key pass and he's found it a couple of times.
Askew with some room ball on the hood, Tawr gets in before he can line up a flick.
Jermaine's gonna ramp up here especially after that game win. They're increasing
their pace of play, they're beating various parts of the ball making their defense
and like you said, they're looking for each other on the field as well.
This is General Mates Rocking League, which is a dangerous sign here for verdicts.
This is that return to form for General Mates as well.
Are you wondering if they might get a little vulnerable after struggling a bit with Wildcard?
Perhaps playing to the level of their competition in both aspects. Archie, over top of top.
A couple of talk, two-feets there to help out.
Got around one, but he's gonna be out of the play again.
Oskie, met by a talk.
Gentlemates looking to, hey, dominate possession.
Make their offense an extension of their defense.
You let first parol get out on offense,
and that's what happens.
Wiggie, you let purpose get on offense.
Two-feets, double, ceiling double.
Oh, and that's just such a hard shot to block right to the top right.
And Oskie, way to the left side on the backboard.
So Archie had the initial challenge.
There's more hoping that he had guessed right.
He had not.
Talk down.
Throw one up the crossbar.
And Oskie gets a piece of this to send it away.
And here comes Gentlemage.
Only as far as two-feeze.
Nass has to jump in and two-feeze got a piece of that as well.
Well, so aren't you now just trying to just this off to the side,
looking for a teammate.
He found off ski, but here we go.
Virtus Pro waking up in game three.
Well, looking for the infield pass.
The next strong cut out there.
Two piece, just let it get a little away from him.
A lot of speed happening.
Sometimes hard to slow things down and control the ball the way
you want it to.
You can't give it up for gentlemage.
I mean, you see how close they get to the net anytime you give them
Oh, good faith.
Oh, oh.
That was like a follow.
Another bounce to ran.
Here's the rebound for Nass.
And that's easily sent out by Toss.
Solo boost for Virtus.Pro.
And there's nothing in the tag except for two-fies.
And it's not enough.
Oski adds another his third goal of the series.
The lady wanted to get the bump to get Toss
to move and stay close to the ball, but didn't happen.
Ball put in open space again.
I mean, ASCII just gets a slow roller.
I mean, it feels like a war of attrition.
Can furnace pearl hold on to the boost?
If it can, it's only a matter of time
for gentlemen to get on the board.
Archie has done an exceptional job with boost management.
Zero again.
There's Nass, who also has plenty of attack,
waving the same.
He had a full canister coming across.
Two-piece.
Hole as well, makes that stop.
And Tark will just have that bounce off him.
Oskie got this off, but it's going to be off to the side.
And two-feeze now with nothing in the deck at all.
And look at all the proofs.
Almost a full 300 for gentlemates
as they come forward into the VP end again.
Everett is a great job getting out.
It was really tough.
And now they get a little bit of field position,
but then these midfield cuts,
send them back to their own end.
And Tark, ah, you lose, you lost so much.
Boosted, and he gave the ball to Oskie, who almost made a play happen.
Oh, there, he was threatening the ground pinch pass over to Archie.
That one's gonna be saved off the post by Two Piece.
And now Nass trying to burn more time off the block.
They're just trying to wear down Berndas' throw, but it's Archie now.
From the midfield line, Two Piece faked and just went down field.
Wavy trying to control.
They gotta get out of their zone.
They have just been stuck in jail for this entire final minute.
Another ball loosened from their net,
and Dawson only popping up.
Everybody's got all the boost in the world.
They have a monopoly on it for crying out loud.
Wavy, second touch, at least got it to midfield.
Archie brings it back in.
They're firing it now.
They'll talk, almost tie it.
Gentlemates with a textbook closeout to game three.
just kept them in their own half,
limited their options by taking all their boosts.
And although they didn't increase the score line,
it just felt like Verdes Furl was in a trap
they just could not get out of a snare.
And now they're in a situation where,
okay, when they break out,
they're often still look threatening,
but you're limiting your opportunities.
In a series where, you know,
big win, big implications for the group here,
And I think it's just I wonder if we see a timeout from memory here
I don't necessarily know because it's just harkest again. They only had four shots that game
And one player only three of them
Yeah, they just
You know for vertus pro
They have like all these expectations and all the confidence
After a dominant defensive performance
Against vitality talk about the three shutouts. They start today with a shutout
And just mentally you think that's it, you know that like they've solved the puzzle
They haven't
Gentlemates have given them a new one to solve
They have come back against vertus pro. Nass hasn't scored yet for all the talk we have about Nass and his three goals yesterday
How critical he was they've done it with him being more of a table setter and an excellent defensive presence against VP
I mean, I do you do have to give credit to how gentlemen's are playing because they're beating
Virtus. Pro to the ball in the midfield, which causes them to want to okay
I don't want to get beat here because they're gonna just stay on top of it
Then they're a lot then vertice. Okay, we just got to get the ball out
They try to get the ball out, but their rotations on the side of gentlemen's are so great that they always have someone back to
Bring it right back in
I'm not really a boost to that factor and then suddenly verse pearl are just in a such a tough situation
It's almost surprising they didn't give up more goals because it's so hard to get the ball out
When everybody is low and when the guys finally do get boost as soon as they're in the air
Someone's up in front of their face
It has been the Archie and Oski show for gentle mates
Five goals on the week for each of them
fist bumps around here we go utopia must win for vertus pro to force game five
archie beaten by talk you almost got one more just to with that just jumping
in the way and an explosive start perhaps in the cards for game four
more, Oskie, over top of Kaka, read the waterfall down.
Okay, I guess we just ignore it.
For both sides, we keep going there.
That was uncharacteristic for both of them.
Talk, still gets a piece of that.
Little talk, 50 right on the goal line.
Catch and release, they're from bass,
gets it right back on the hood, pops it up, Archie.
Look how fast Archie's getting to the ball here.
Toskey last back, not afraid to go.
But he's going to get punished for this.
Taught, that's going to life-touch.
Two-piece.
On the backboard, wanted to line up the double.
Verna's pro has a chance to counter-attack
until he get past that aggressive third man there
from Gemma Mates.
They will have to make that moment strike.
Over top of Archie, but he just clipped
two-piece on the way through.
Taught, out of control in the air,
so he'll get a demo on his way back.
And that could be an opportunity now.
Verna's throws to piece dumps it back in.
Nass is right there.
And he can stay with this play as well.
Just try to force it over to the side.
Nobody else over there for Kettle Maids.
And now neither is Nass.
Wavy soft pitch right to Archie.
That's not exactly what you're looking for.
It's kind of a giveaway for Verna's throw
and I'm characteristic of that.
Oh, good demo though from Wavy.
Takes out Archie, looks so much time here.
in the midfield. Just once you can wave you off the ball. Now Archie can bang it back in.
They're playing. Send someone forward. See if they can disrupt. And keep, bird as Pearl on their side.
So far bird as Pearl has done a great job of just fighting that. Keeping the ball as close as possible.
And look at Wavey. Get past one. Get past two waves. Wavey might have a lane. Katie's scored. He can!
Team Bumford, Chetely's open the bar for Wavy.
There was Wavy going coast to coast.
There was the difference in game one,
and he's done it again to give VP a 1-0 lead in the game.
They must win.
Great stuff out of Wavy.
Now it's Nass, right to two-piece.
Off-key, out of from behind as Wavy has to make the save.
Marching coming around.
And he can get onto this ball as he have any support coming in.
Not really, as Oskie was a little too close to the play.
Nass though, right at it.
To the backboard, and he easily set across.
Oh, Oskie trying to buy time here with the 50 he did.
He set up Archie.
Now look, Oskie turn, playing high.
Can he get the foot free set?
No.
He was able to play a 50.
Archie's shot blocked away instantly.
Now he's going to have to take it from his own in.
Gentlemen, I've always struggled with playing from behind
This game that they did win that first game was game two they lit up the store board
Can they do it now or if the time out from furnace broke so effective and they finally found a way to shut them out
To be something quickly
Just dumps that back in gives his teammates time to get a bunch of boost they needed to
Wavy, powers his way through Nass. Got Archie to jump early, but Nass is there to clean it up.
The pitch stuck by Tauk. Reball now for two-piece, one-on-one with Archie.
Got it to the ceiling, and still flipped by Tauk on the way out.
But nobody else who's hurt as broke can really follow this up as it's powered away by Oskie.
Now Wavy passes it, who's free to offer Tauk? No, Nass. To the Nass.
Two-piece, sent in a cross, no one could get there.
Wavey will challenge and not make any contact.
Yes, looking certain to Ozzie Blockout. Archie, awkward.
Wavey up, ball down, and it saves from Archie.
The way back flip, no, Archie takes recovery to get there in time.
It's still a one-goal lead for Burns-Browns. We hit that final minute.
You should have had no chance to make that initial save.
Save your best for the end of the year
Gentlemen certainly have
Talk now right at Nass easy save no follow-up out of her to pro
They're gonna challenge gentlemen to come at him problem is they have time and time again
That goes all the way through to the back corner and it's our two with not a lot in the tank
But a great 50 to keep this ball forward
down and brought and cleared by Toph.
Can pop up Archie with time, let's just fall.
Go for the shot and blocked out by Wavy.
Gino, they's looking to ramp it up and he's fine with 30 seconds.
Archie turned again.
Aski with the lead.
No block from Tupes.
Can they get in front of this and extend the lead?
No, the pop up sets up Archie again.
Archie keeps it close with the blow.
The dust wasn't enough.
Game is before his crawl and shut his down mix.
But off he might have something to say about it.
Pop up, no, block down again.
Wavy brings it back to midfield.
Is this going to be game five?
Or can Genovese try it here?
We're going to Champion's Field.
Why not?
How about it again out of Virtus Pro?
Their defense does not fail them when they need it most.
Another shutout.
And maybe the most bizarre statistic of this entire group stage so far,
Virtus Pro, all five of their game wins have been shutouts.
We know the win condition for Gentlemates going into this next game then.
Hit on the board.
They get on the board, they win.
Wow, but I mean,
Gentlemates did definitely heat up in those final seconds.
Six demos.
You're talking about the six demos, the physicality, opening up space, but it was also catching
the generalmates.
Out of 20 times, the generalmates would too fall forward and play like that from the way
you would have it.
Then you got the team buff, unfortunate, but situations like that have been where the
generalmates are not on the same page, someone gets caught out and then they have to play
defense.
And that took so much time to caught this game.
That flurry of offense that they had in the end just came too late.
about the great tandem defense there out of Vertus pro with talk coming in no time
out by the way with talk coming in after the after the initial challenge
understanding exactly where he had to be he read the play perfectly to make the
goal line safe now here we go waving for talk backboard free ball for two
Can he force it through?
No, deflect it away.
Keeps his clothes, throws the defense off as well.
They just want to make gentleman as awkward as possible.
Even though the kickoff, Wavy with second hand,
gets up to the ball.
Hold on, two-piece, up quick, Wavy, can he go?
Wavy!
Can they take their time out now?
What a setup.
Two-piece hanging in there.
Just got it away to the backboard.
And Wavy, the confidence to go in for his fourth
Goal of the series, two-game winners in their 1-0 wins.
And talk, what a huge tricky that is.
Perhaps the midfield boost as well,
but comes up empty on the challenge.
There's Oskie all the way across.
Archie played it way too strong for him,
trying to keep possession.
And gentlemen, it may just do that,
but it's going to rely on Nass.
And it's a double, maybe on the ball again.
Looking for two-piece.
Two-piece can't go.
Archie all over it.
Now takes the ball.
Couldn't get the corner boost there, but he cleared away and asked to meet it in the midfield.
Das playing it low, can't get the pump.
Wavy seems to talk, and now, Burden's pro. Wait, hold on, talk my half more here.
Archie, don't get a piece, Wavy up quick again!
Oh, he's got a top corner! He's top for two!
Wavy taking charge. Talk again!
With a great setup.
And this time wavy just no fear at all and this very aggressive wavy is a real problem now for gentlemakes
Yeah, that's always the two-goal lead here stats
Gentlemakes they have a lot of time in the game, but they gotta get going
Can you get it to Archie? It's too high. Archie has to go all the way back now
Bring it to Ness
Ness
You need to see him on the scoreboard a little bit more. Can he create here in this game five?
Talk diving in very good patience out of our cheese. This is great defense. So out of first throw
Two-piece over to wavy and then he'll pop it away talk now
Can he get back out onto this he sure can wavy lurking all the way across the field to be starting to creep up as well
And he can just sense the confidence at an all-time high now on a bird as pro
Sense and maybe they could be one shot away from putting gentlemen's away even this early in the game
and 20-meter group, which is huge for Virtus.Pro.
He's talking about how they're going into the tournament
and where they are now, great conversations,
but it all depends on what they can do in these next two
minutes and 50 seconds.
Archie to Oskie.
There's no panic on the side of Gentlemates.
There's not going to be, especially with a player like
He'll give way to Archie.
There's nothing else going there.
Two demos come out on the side of Virtus.
Brown, ass quickly back into the play.
Flip, reset, try to bring it down.
And Wavy's having absolutely none of it.
There is one direction for Wavy.
It is forward full speed ahead.
And again, Giddle makes not getting on the scoreboard.
And that's gonna be the biggest stage here.
You talk about those shutouts.
Wavy's broke.
Continuing to keep that trend.
Ken jettamates break through the scoring ground now for you for bucks can't make it happen Archie
Can't make contact with the ball off the yellow with boost and by the space can large Oscar
Won't again the answers. No, he's shut down talk shut down. Aren't she what space here for first ball as you try to increase their lead
To face again to the backboard
This will be set out off ski can't get anything fast the initial defender and those second and third chance offers
just don't exist for gentlemates as they have before.
Oh, he got my one!
Let's do this!
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
It's my wavy!
That's two-piece, man.
It's been up in a rebound.
But this is where gentlemates have been able to get their offense.
But they can't follow it up any further.
Archie just hit the ball as hard as possible.
Talk with the rainbow.
He was talking about those saves!
No!
That was another goal!
Keeps going downfield!
Archie can't get around it!
Wanted to get the ball!
Aske shot!
No, not to the top!
Can't get the bump on top!
They're playing this close, but they're running out of time!
Final minute in front of me!
Now, can't get the drop down!
Oskie wants to pick this ball up, but he's demoed!
Chillemates can't get anything!
They have thrown everything and the kitchen sink at Burtis Bro.
That one's gonna king off the corner!
And two piece will bring it all the way to the side.
Add a harm's way for the moment.
Talk now, another powerful player.
Archie to center.
center, Oskie, not a lot of attack and he just can't get a network.
He wanted to get the skim, couldn't get it, 30 seconds now, all this pressure,
and what is it about to?
Archie, and he's able to get the skim down to redirects.
Oskie can't get the pop-up, tall cannon ready.
Maybe, good part of this out, but now it will take control.
And now you look at the clock, and it looks hopeless.
Oh, and Archie, Oskie can score this here, and bounces off the corner.
It's blocked out immediately.
Another beat, another call!
Virtus.Pro, three to zero!
What a finish.
Coming back from down two, one in the series.
And Virtus.Pro are mere seconds away from as gutty a win
as they've had all year.
The final countdown on Champions Field.
They say defense wins championships.
But God Defense is about to win group D.
Not letting a goal in every game they've won.
Wow.
Talk about a stat line, Stacks.
Six shutouts.
And that's impressive by itself.
That's six shutouts against team vitality and gentle mates.
Who could possibly have predicted that?
When has that ever happened to these two clubs?
I'm just keen to do it.
And you heard talk on the interview as well.
They wanted to make it to that crowd day.
Well, congratulations.
You're about to top the group.
Steller, performance from Vertus, Pearl.
Talk about resilience.
Time and time again, have we seen teams
get close to the finish line
and they weren't able to close it out?
But this team, game five situation,
gets the job done in a dominant fashion.
Defense, Steller, offense, lethal.
Wave seven on the desk, wave,
You gotta go with Virtus Pro the whole way.
Yeah, absolutely do.
Five goals out of Wavy, two more out of talk,
two out of two-piece.
Virtus Pro are one of one,
and they're standing by with Lee.
Virtus Pro on an unbelievable hot streak right now, Wavy.
Can you even believe this?
I'm confident in their teams,
I definitely can't believe it right seeing all the efforts come into fruition
Definitely a little little unbelievable in a way, but this is definitely a result that we thought was possible
It feels a little bit surreal. I guess yeah, it's a lot
I just gotta say it's for these guys from the beginning and it's so cool to see you guys finally
Being able to execute on that plan snacks brought it up
And I'm sorry if this will make you think about it in the future
But every game you guys have won has been a shutout by the way, so when you guys don't concede your win
So just don't let it any more goals
Pretty easy when you don't get scored on that's the plan now right? Yeah. No, this is just unreal
I mean team vitality obviously yesterday was a great win coming in today though
You had to have known this wouldn't be easy. Yeah, and there had to be a part of your brain saying okay
Can we do it again? Yeah, well, I was very confident. Um, I'm not gonna lie my personal opinion
I always had mates of like one of the best teams in the world
I have to I predict them to be better than Vitality in a harder matchup. I think it was definitely a harder series for us
They fought back extremely well, but we're able to especially with that tie after game three
We're able to claw it back and really take it home now
Yeah, I guess on that note of like you saying gentlemen, it's one of the best teams here
Is that the team you wanted to be or is there another couple you'd like to have like in the notch on your belt?
I mean, you always want to beat Casey. I'm sure you absolutely
Yeah, a lot of beat KC. Yeah, or are you got from winning that? Oh unmatched on Matt. All right
We know where the next targets are set then. Oh for sure. Okay, cool. You know, I don't want to steal anywhere time
I'll let you go celebrate the team because this is awesome. Congratulations on that one unbelievable from bird vertus pro
Hopefully we get some more great stories like this as we continue on day three of the world championship series
Okay, the plumber is fixing that burst pipe.
It should be all set.
Good thing you're protecting 24-7 with your home and auto
level from Progressive.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm just trying to figure out the right caption to post about
these.
Maybe something like, I have protection, just need a lifeguard.
What about that emoji with a shocked face?
Or maybe flooded with emotion.
That's so funny.

I don't know.
I don't know.

That's too much.

You know, technically, you don't have to post everything
that happens online.

I want you
I know we both are missing you
The world we used to know, is burning down.

We feel so alive
The 2026 Rockley World Championship continues to deliver the spectacle and
twists and turns of the best story books here as Vertis Pro. In five games,
take down the gentlemates, they have secured the first seed out of group D.
They will finish no worse than top six and wildcard are eliminated before they
win their final match. And that's the play-in team as well. The play-in! That group,
and they're the first team to clinch the group winner.
Virtus.Pro, we talked about the hottest play-in team,
and they haven't let up.
They've been so hot both days, so congrats to them.
Top six, we won't see them again until Saturday.
They do have one more match today against Wildcard,
but it's meaningless, and then we don't see them until Saturday.
If they're in mind as well, every match that they won,
they didn't let gentlemen make score.
Like, pushing the final game,
let's bring them the final game.
They were in the games that they ended up winning,
completely dominant, and I had gentlemen's personally.
I think that was the technically sensible pick against the, you know, one of the current major champions and then with a playing team completely blew all of our expectations out of the water.
And I think wavy in particular, he is just looked like he's just on like another plane when he's at the world at the end sport champion, which was to be clear that that perfect shutout thing continues back through their matches against vitality.
So so far every game they've won the group they have shut the other teams out
What if that's just to highlight you point out wavy out of all the talk was about talk coming into this
He was their secret weapon wavy stepping up in this series and here's the thing
We talked about talk day one we talked about two-piece day two and now about wavy day three all three members
Are playing the best of broccoli. They have ever played in their lives at the perfect time
Yeah, really does look like they're up really hard in sync and we talked about it
the free his desk.
Oh, well, I did at least.
I said, if he's gonna win this,
it's gonna be a base on the defense.
Three shutouts against the Jermaine squad.
And it's hard to shut out.
And it shows that the defense is inhuman.
So his instinct is moments like these,
a lot of dribble, a lot of taking advantage.
They're comfortable going up 1-0.
And if they can do that,
so over committed, then you start losing this game.
Number five, 2-0, 2-0, 3-0.
At that point, these boys are simply two talents.
They're waiting to top corner again.
That just the speed on maybe to follow that up talk.
Obviously, beating two members out there,
cause that 50-50.
That is what you need.
And there you go VP with that 3-2 and clinch number one
seed of their group.
And you could see in their faces the gentlemen
it's when they got when that match in a just absolutely
flat frustrated with how that went.
This was a group they really felt
that they had the chance to win to get that guaranteed top
six to get the break tomorrow.
And now they have to play their way.
I mean, it makes sense that they be frustrated.
They have 57 shots total throughout the team.
Five games, 57 shots.
VP only had 39.
It's 18 shot difference.
but you're coming out three games with zero.
So naturally you're putting up opportunities
but BPs defense and if it's playing this solid,
they could beat anybody.
Well, so take a look at how the group has solidified here.
One spot is clinched, one spot is guaranteed
on the bottom as well because the wild card
lost to the Gentlemates yesterday.
And Gentlemates have now are at one and one
and their only opportunity is to try and play
against Virtus Pro who's already at two and O.
wildcard are mathematically eliminated from this group.
They will finish fourth no matter how that final match goes.
Yes, because no matter what vitality or mates
will be the one and two team tied with them,
and they've lost to both of them.
So they lose that head to head time.
Huge difference from last year when
they finished top six in Lyon, now they're already eliminated.
They can't even make the bracket play.
Those needed boys, they got a lot of work to do.
A lot of work to do, but the vitality and gentleman's
will play a little bit later on today to find out
who goes through as the number two versus the number three
from group D. On our alternate stream,
lots of gameplay still continuing on.
The ninjas and pyjamas sitting down against twisted minds right now as we speak that will be happening
Twitch.tv slash RL eSports on the mainstream quite a few more games to go and we'll have our 2v2s at the end
But let's start talking about some of the other surprises of the day
Furia and foot eSports living up to the hype may let's say surpassing the hype especially for the South Americans
For both of these teams really both these teams have been looking fantastic Furia though
I think most people thought they would come in fourth in this group is a very difficult group because Furiel was in it
But they are 2-0. They're looking to tap to top the group on the other side foot
They're 1-1, but if they win this game 3-1, they literally don't have to worry about anything else and they will top it
That's gonna be crazy to a foot wins this 3-1. I'll be 2 in a teams already qualified for top six
But the chance of other than a team's pension top six as well
groups are looking good so far in tickets.
Normally, we see the Americans do pretty well,
especially North America do very well
on the first day in particular.
That's carrying through.
They're not having a slump,
which does happen at majors and worlds in particular.
That's carrying through,
and Europe is really not standing,
stepping up to the plate right now.
It's a great time,
I think, to be a North American Rocket League fan.
We'll see if they can keep it up here,
but they're gonna have to go against
one of the most storied organizations
in South American esports, FURIA.
I think it was a good season, but I expected it to be better.
My feeling of being in Worlds is very good, because it's the World Cup of the game,
so I think it's the most important tournament of the year.
So everyone who is here has a feeling of gratitude.
In the World Cup of 2021, I want to prove that we are very good,
and taking the good result here.
I know that this place is very important for Akashili,
because it's very historic, so we want to give our best here and play happily.
They are doing a great job, but we have to be better and that's it. Yeah, that's fair
I was just talking about the scenarios with you after you're like I don't even look is that a strategy just to make sure that you
Guys can keep your focus on just playing the game. Yeah, we don't even look it like we don't care for results like
Game differential, right? Just want to win against everybody and that's what our focus today. Just win
Grab that top six and that's it. Yeah, any of the numbers. That's good job
Don't worry about right and of course looking at your players as they got locked in here coming into day number three of
The world championships was there a different approach a demeanor of the players?
Do they feel a little more relaxed now that they've been here a little bit in the games have been going?
To be honest, I don't know how to answer that because it's inside them, but what are you sure?
What we talked about it. We seem relaxed and we seem happy playing so I
I believe we will do that while we are playing
and hopefully we will get this win.
Yeah, hey, you guys are in a good spot.
And again, hopefully for you guys, you can get that win.
So good luck in that matchup.
Let's take a look at Foot across the board here.
Foot's years so far is very interesting,
considering we restarted the season with zero points.
The Foot team was built for LCKU.
We didn't have that much pressure.
Besides maybe a few couple teams that, you know,
maybe like the Gen Gs and stuff that could maybe sneak in
like a game, every two here and there.
So it's definitely a little scary for sure.
But we had nothing but confidence.
We know the abilities we all have individually as players
and as a team and how good we can be.
So we just went in there confident and it clearly shows.
I think coming to this world,
I want to do very well considering the past events
haven't been too good,
but we've shown that we have fight in us.
We've been showing very good scrims
against the top, top teams.
I've been to a lot of worlds.
I've won worlds.
I haven't lost a passion at all.
I definitely am, I would say, a veteran in these situations.
So I know kind of how to handle it.
So I feel like on stage and when it matters,
I could be the leader for Cheez & Chronic.
And Chronic himself knows as well, because he's one of the majors.
So I'm just hoping we get out of play-in.
And I think whoever we play first out of the play-in,
I think we can confidently beat him and hopefully top eight.
And then we'll just keep going from there.
And of course, our opponent's on the other side of the air.
Once again, with Adam Beget,
You always walk up here with a good amount of confidence.
And I'm imagining that something that is natural to you,
but you also put on to make sure that your players are feeling
that confidence as well.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
I mean, as a coach, you need to build your camp up.
You got to make sure that you're sharing the vibes
and you're the one kind of making sure everyone's happy.
So always got to be happy, even kind of the rough moments.
But yeah.
Leaning up to this, I don't know what you guys were up to,
but did you watch the Virtus.Pro match just before this?
Yeah, we did.
OK.
That's got to give maybe some inspiration.
Does that help you guys say, hey, look,
Wait, I read you. We're doing good.
We need to do that, too.
Yeah, no, it's nice to see our region do well at Worlds.
I mean, I think we've always had pretty good teams.
We just can't put it together online.
So it's good to see.
It definitely inspires confidence in us.
You know, these are teams and players that we see every day
and they're doing the second teams that have, you know,
placed on podium.
Now, looking at the scenarios, I was talking to Bruno.
He doesn't pay attention.
Do you lock in a little bit more about the possible scenarios
here, given the fact that, you know,
potentially tiebreakers are on the way?
Yeah, I mean, I think it's hard to stay oblivious.
I think at some point you do find them out and try to act like you don't know them,
can do more harm than good.
Just like ignore it, ignore it, because it will be there subconsciously.
So I think bringing it forward and talking about it and then being like, OK,
it's there, but we don't have to go for it.
I think that kind of mentality is a lot better than just trying to avoid it all together.
Yeah, well, and I walked up, you said you're excited to play some play some ball.
So I'm going to let you go do that.
Good luck in your match.
Thank you.
I think the group B the most contentious and complex of the scenarios for our four groups.
These two matches that are going to be played right now with twisted minds taken on ninjas
and majamas on the alternate stream.
But taking on fear here will be the conclusion of this group.
We will know which team is out, which team is in and which two teams are going to have
to fight in that little bracket.
And I do appreciate that the coaches are both like, yeah, it really doesn't matter because
it's different from Rock League to football, right?
you might know. Oh, we can lose this game by a goal. Let's play a bunch of
defense and rock league every five minute game you're trying to win. And as
long as you win those games, you're looking good. It does not matter about
tiebreakers. You try and win 30 every single time. It's such an interesting
group as well. Going into it twisted minds. I would have had them, you know,
piff them as that first team. They were the ones that were sitting in the
group waiting. Yeah, pure in my word, the resurgence that we've seen from them
of having disappointing results of previous events and not attending previous majors
as well. It's been a great latter half of the year for South America. And not only that
though, NA four and five seats historically have always been like, yeah, you show up and
we expect you to go home on day one or day two. We just saw like the NA five seed basically
top their group. And now we got the NA four coming out with foot. They can do the same
thing right now. NA is an all time high in terms of death. I mean, the only thing separating
these two teams so far with their performance at this tournament is that
foot didn't close game five. They went up to August three months and then let
twist the mind to get back into it. Both of these teams swept in IP handle without
questions. One team beat twisted minds. No one didn't on champion's field. We can
easily be having a two-oh game straight up or the one seed in the coming on into
the bracket. Yeah, exactly. And for this match, too, it's gonna be highly entertaining.
We have the number one offense in foot versus the number two offense in fury at
throughout the group stage.
But also both these defenses have been questionable.
Foot is 12th in defense and Fury is 9th in defense.
So you expect both teams to be punching one another,
high scoring matches.
We'll see if either team has figured out
the defensive side of the ball.
It's interesting to say that,
because they've usually both stepped back on defense a lot.
Yeah, Foot is known to be my defense.
I hit chronic as one of the defense of MPPs of the year.
And now he's number two in goals per game
in this entire tournament.
So everything's flipped on set.
I mean, bear in mind, both these teams have also played against NIP and three of them, and I don't think NIP put up a huge amount of defense in those series, either it's going to bolster their offense.
They're going to look a lot better offensively through those statistics and NIP obviously sitting at the bottom of the group right now, not looking pretty for them.
Still got that chance, but yeah, I think it's going to be an absolute like haymaker series just sending more to downrange, seeing what lands and to reiterate what's going on here.
We have Furionfoot, they're both clinched top three.
They're both fighting for number one here,
but there is a world where Twisted Minds
leapfrogs both of them and gets the number one seed.
If Twisted Minds wins their game,
if I believe Foot wins this three to two,
it could come down to goal differential.
And right now, Twisted Minds has that edge.
So that is a possibility.
While Ninjas and Twisted are very likely battling for fourth,
Twisted could still leapfrog all of them
and go to number one.
We'll see folks lots of different ways that this group could pan out after the conclusion of these two matches
So let us know who you think is gonna win in the fan vote Stumpy
Furia or foot and they look very good at this event so far
But I do think that this did be a surgeon to South America so that I love to get by it is very exciting
Very cool is very fun. I'm gonna have to go to the furia
I might think that they've had they've managed to get it over the line in the series that they have played
neighbors have struggled and they felt right at the end and it's very close, but you have
to just take those small inconsistencies into account.
I think fans are going to be disappointed on Friday, so we'll be able to cheer on Justin
because Foot's going to win this series three to one and move to Saturday and top this group.
I have Foot moving on.
And I'm listening.
I'm going to back gives right there.
I'm going to pick for this one.
I'll tell you why.
It's because they will avoid the sweat demos, won't give you any opportunities.
And Justin, the original prodigy is going to ball out in this series against South America.
Give me foot.
the one that gives three oh three oh three oh. Both teams had to go to game five against
twisted minds. Furia got it done in regulation. Foot didn't quite get it done in overtime,
but my goodness, it's so close. That was all on day one. This is day two. They've had time
to lock in and how long has it been since I could really confidently pick Justin at
a world championship and say, I really believe that it was going to happen. Folks, give me
foot. I think foot's got this one locked up. Furia though. My goodness. What other what
the story it is that they come out of this group. Oh yeah, three and it
absolutely like this is a coin flip match. I don't even get curious like edge
because they took down Tristan Mines, but we have the true coin.
Let's find out what's going to be. Oh, it's gonna be flip. Okay.
I'm down for that one. It's now the heavy favorites.
Let's see. Let's see. Is it 50 50 and chat? No, it's
stepping up.
Oh, I think it's gonna make. They did. People like Justin
Let's see if they choose a chronic two. Let's see if we can live up to the high pure do do fury continue this
Incredible run they've been having two teams black and white two teams whose first two letters are F and U
Two teams responsible Red Bull to try to give you the top of the group. We'll see if we can happen foot versus fury
Well our beautiful desk recommend footy sports are gonna take this one against the fury it in top form
that CJ CJ is game one this brought to us by progressive what's going on with his
permutations straight to be here with your cold fantastic battle the
Americans as well permutations galore here in this best of five footer 3-1 and
3-0 they can top this group and still a chance for twisted minds to top the group
of foot went in five but if you can just win this year that's a 3-0 result and this is a start
the footer looking for six seconds in the big game
All right, well, the World Championship starts, but last night,
an absolute shocker, and then, yeah, there's nothing.
Will there, Justin?
Had to be aware, it's been the most of their mistakes, though,
and that's an early youth for Foot.
Great start for Foot.
The favourites in this match, 70 to 30 in the chat zone,
as well, they are our fan favourite team, of course,
when you've got Justin, any team with that man,
that superstar, the World Champion.
If you're out, then what a performance from them.
Went over to his demise, a 3-0 sweep on the NIP as well.
But not to be messed with, they can hang right around this level.
And don't get to this thought of having any favourites where when you're playing like this,
give me a small call and you'll be in any one of the passes.
And they'll be eliminated getting group B either, so it's the group that can go literally any way.
Nobody knows what's about to happen over the next three games or so.
First Twisted Mind's got them right now in the alternate stream.
So if you start seeing if you can get that first game of the entire tournament,
You check that one out as well. Sends that one long, furious.
He could have settled a little bit after that all-foot beginning.
And I cast it on the backboard.
I mean, they've definitely come at the right time.
They're looking very comfortable right now
with this World Championships.
And it could be that World Championship experience
that Justin is bringing, the major winning experience
that Connick is bringing.
Maybe it's the step-up in form that Jesus is bringing with foot.
Definitely having something coming together for themselves right now.
I'm sure the other three in the other match as well.
Who's to mine?
It's Dip.
That's underway.
1-1 in game one.
Right here, Justin.
It's that goal.
Six seconds in.
Proving to be the different smakers so far.
3-30 on the clock now.
Chronic looking to work the balls for the big J's
on the left side as well.
Re-
OH!
Justin Underneath came from nowhere.
Come on!
Gary did.
I didn't see it coming.
I'm all reported.
Me, Fury, I didn't see it coming.
Austin Swift thought they had this one.
Losses like Ed.
Let me ask that.
And Justin says, no, you will not.
How is he getting quicker?
How is he getting more mechanical as he aged?
He's what, 24 now?
He's quite happy coming 17-year-old.
He just bobbed up in front of net and trusted
they probably could get the ball to him.
And for nowhere, as he said, Justin,
what a performance he's having.
You just have to think that the captain right now,
Gary G, sitting at home, Captain America,
what happened to my ability?
Wait, that guy, is Justin getting better and better?
the World Champion, he does it again, over the top of the sky!
And then, three, in under two minutes!
Chelsea's having some fun here in Dickey's arena.
You can't give him that much time.
Swifton lost, goes spiraling away.
And Furtz have started this one as a million MPH.
Well, he just picked up his title.
And my goodness, it's more Rebels than they ever are.
He is just incredible! Chronic with his shot! Just a look for the fuck! Chronic on the post!
Really a 4-0 start for F1.
The team from North America that helped CQ Warriors to play in demons!
Are looking fantastic! Could they win the group? Could they move straight through to the upper bracket of the playoffs?
What a story this could be, Cole!
Yeah, they definitely can't do it. They were within one goal away from beats and twisted minds.
They could be 2-0 in this group right now. It went all the way to the game.
Five minutes, Crony! What is going on? What is it that water at the moment?
Adam McGinney jumping up and down behind his fourth team in four-foot reason.
Crony dodges the bump, it's a recent off the corner, and fires it into the net. Four-nil.
We haven't played half the game in Rocket League yet.
It's an absolute statement performance in game one against Furia.
Who looked dump-strunk right now? It could be Finn.
Yadda didn't get that one to the side of Crony. He said there's demos and stuff as well.
They're just playing with complete fearlessness.
It's so effective.
Interesting couple of touches.
I mean, if you're Fury right now, CJ,
where on Earth do you turn, maybe to a little pre-jump between lost and swift?
But, eventually, they're all over the place.
In attack, but look comfortable.
Oh, yeah.
Every time the book comes forward, it's like they're scurrying off the gobs.
You said Fury and Dumbstruck, that's because they're getting dumped on
right here by this foot-liner.
Two minutes to go, still a four-nil shut-out.
Justin with a hat trick, Chronic getting involved. Just a well-oiled machine, cheese doing exactly what he needs to do, could be the first game.
But it's Justin with a hat trick, not content with his horror score line. He wants to keep a clean sheet as well.
It's one of those games where everything is working perfectly for foot. I mean, it was a great save from Justin.
But how often does the ball then go to a fewer player instead? It went straight to Chronic.
It's a combination of lock hands, skill left, and foot.
And they're making the most of what they have, making the most of every opportunity
as he goes for ceiling. Here comes he! He's trying to get involved, he's saved by Swift!
Almost a fit for Boots! One for each toe.
And then Swift tries to walk it forwards, cron against the block.
Yankarzy too much will to get it to the back for, then he goes right back to Furia's heart.
Got to be so trustworthy for Furia, they can't get anything going, he's just doing as he pleases.
Here, in game one.
Huge amount of the group stage as well.
You completely shake up the results.
You've got a twist of mind, Sam.
We're going to finish 2-1.
Furia.
They dropped this, W2-1, and put him here right there.
They made the best game difference of the lot.
Yeah.
Off the wall, Swift, with the fake as well.
But that's just not where the end of it.
45 seconds left.
North Fury, he can do his try and build up some momentum,
but it's not going to happen.
Jeez.
Crash is another one against the post there.
I think Furia, I've got luck if it was on target.
So we knew he had to slip half a goal.
Lost.
So all is just, there's a few cheers going on around us.
From the B-string, we'll try and kick it closer.
What's happened there is nearer.
Try and get something, but it's saved again by Grunick.
And then it's shot by Hickok and the ankle.
And everything is going from bad to worse, the Fury.
They can't get anything to work, but thought on the other hand
have just shown up.
On the other foot.
On the other foot.
He said that really set themselves for this game
against Furia. They've seen it as an opportunity to see their teeth in, to see their feet in.
So get the toes dirty and it's 4-0 for Fort, what a start. Well, wow, 70% of you in chat who
predict that someone would win this one have been in pretty good about themselves right now.
Furia, absolutely caught cold there against Fur... I mean, it happens sometimes where a team gets
It was what, six seconds and the kickoff goal came in for the foot, but it's a build from that the way they did.
And just an MVP there.
A crowd of playing two of that games in his career than that.
He's dropping 5-69 in game one of the most important game of their World Championships 2026 campaign.
Sometimes you think, when's it going to stop for this team who's just been running gauntlet after gauntlet?
LCQ is playing stages, but they just keep finding a way and could this be the time for Futsal Peay?
the game. I mean, it's just
it's just a little bit of a
short to pay. Could it be the
time for Justin? To just surge
forward and win a second world
champion. We don't early on this
game. I thought you got you got
to get carried away, right?
Because well, we have to the
players need to know they need
to complete opposite right now.
Foot needs to in some ways bring
themselves back down to earth.
You can see this with some
minds. It was then who were
shouting them if you're scared
here, but clearly that opening
didn't quite go the way we wanted, but we can ease our way into this series. So then I put my question towards CJ.
Do they believe they're going to hype a little bit in this series, or is it important for them to calm down a bit?
They've got to keep this trade roll again, Will! It's a six-second goal! Again!
How often do you see this at this level, but Furia have not shown up?
And that's five unanswered goals for the North Americans.
Yeah, six seconds again. History is refeeding itself as 30 sports continue to march towards potential.
It's on the screen. It might be 2-0 straight off the bat again.
They're completely winning the kickoff game.
It doesn't make sense with their name.
It's lost.
It's into the corner. Can't quite get that one.
Furious still gets to score. Still gets to do any damage to Booker-Tall.
This is an absolute stop so far.
forward are looking simply ridiculous against a team that had a put a single
step wrong up till this point of the group but this is a different team this
is the best team in North America honestly they're looking at it right now
there's no weakness to this team no Achilles heel this foot come forward
again but he actually is fury on the other side lost shoots she's blocks it off
Can it take the boost as well?
Fury at half, at least got the footholds on the foothold.
He didn't even mean that one.
That's chronic, it's in my corner.
Yeah, it's not right here.
Actually, keep it going.
I'm excited about this foot-liner.
And then you keep the ball rolling.
Fury, what have you got for us?
Answer back.
Give us a bit of entertainment on the other side of things.
The orange heart is feeling lonely
because that blue net is getting a workout.
Lost big 50.
He's going to leave that crate.
He's back following up.
She's happy to oblige.
We've got so much control of this game, look at the boost as well.
Doing as they please, Fiora just feels forced at the moment as well.
They just can't find their way through again, works them all across the unit to demo adjust.
And it's just an opportunity, but there's just no way someone back, Crony just refuses to hit Super Sonic's feet.
And it's just so calm in there for a foot.
Lost in the corner though, Fiora and Huff gone.
A bit of pressure right now, Justin is waiting, but Jesus swiped, but it greets us there from the swift.
And came Yan.
Lost now has to wait, he tries to find Yan to the ceiling.
Can he get the parts back to him?
Cronik is in there, and Cronik is kind of at his business,
and he gets his all-important little touches just Cronik.
It's very rarely show-stealing,
but he just nips ahead of his own, it's hitting the wall.
There he is again, a huge sail on the goal line this time,
and then follows it through into the opposite corner.
He always just gets there.
As Justin is putting goal after goal.
In the back of the panther's net, if your partner likes me, he's lost. Can he find the shot? It's a free play.
Oh, but there is the DJ! He's free to turn! And he's in the middle of the counterattack. It's not easy!
Oh! Oh, Justin is ridiculous!
The most composed moment of the World Championship so far on the stage.
And then the home shot! Get it off him on me once!
That's 6-0.
Goal scored this series, Furia have not found the back of the net.
Yeah, and I'm contested, no, back, no, it's not I'm contested.
Look at this shot.
He's there to clean up and finally, game and a half there,
and Furia get their first goal.
And get as many as they need that.
It was a little bit of quality for him to strike that one so cleanly.
Justin had to panic and lost.
His finish was chewing to that top corner and Furia.
All the talk so far from six seconds into game one has been about the
the fury of the team that we were saying are they coming back into form at the
right time are South American teams finding their way at the right time and
one guy might just teleport them back into that conversation.
Probably should have an access to Chonis World played by last.
Never to fall off as well.
There's so much confidence.
Oh, and up, Justice made a zero-boot save, cross-stamp, free-flip.
There's a nice pass though for Burial.
Oh no, that's out again, it's the long target.
Lost chooses to take the dribble instead.
Swift with a clear downfield,
Cheese right there in time, but he's lost possession.
Feels like every time.
You see that, J-N-A, take a big, Justin.
He's gonna be able to make the right touch,
make the right decision for his team.
He's done it again here that full-time,
and that's a huge demo from Chief.
Nice little hot credit again. It's nothing too fancy, but that's it so much awareness to avoid that bump and keep the
Nothing the attack, but the play going
Fury have got it back now that you're on the right wing lost in the sense of the end get it to him not with Justin there getting a demo
It's actually cheese
All the foot involved heavily
When we won't go to the good though 70 seconds left. It's not gonna help though lost missing that one
No, that's that's a wild swing of the ball there
Justin's just keeping it closed, might just be the greatest player on planet Earth.
I don't think anyone's contesting that after this series.
Swift, popping it up, has lost on the corner. Here we go, Kribir shot coming through.
No. Horses are blocked there. Cheese right online and Chronix underneath the clear the ball down the line.
They are in a very strong position here for 45 seconds. Just have to hold on.
Do they play conservation mode? They look for the third.
is to secure their second game.
Fury out, I'm watching.
They're going to do what they want, but here comes Fury.
It's box away somehow.
I don't know if it was Justin O'Connor's touch
or there was Cheese.
Maybe I'm not quite sure.
Either way, here is Cheese.
He gets something, and that may last you for game two,
going to the feet.
Chronic double demo.
He deserved the goal to Cheese.
He's having a pop it across to him.
He's laughing in the playcats as well.
A huge third goal for Bud and potentially a 2-0 scoreline in this series, which is all important.
They sweep, fury up, they could be tall in the group, they could be straight through to an upper bracket final in the playoffs.
When that, you're into the semi-gift top four as well.
They're looking fantastic right here, 10 seconds left.
You've got to win the first through goal.
I mean, normally when I think of fight for defending, I think of a player up towards the goal, but right now they're swiping across it.
Just getting this last second save, it doesn't matter if they have no boost.
Always getting the extra Sarch Furia, do you get the second?
That they'll be in the Menton swing.
But they not only have to not lose this series, Furia,
they have to try and do as much as possible for their game differential.
They do not want their opponents to sweep them at the very least.
And maybe that goal is something, maybe that goal is the foothold for them, but...
They're struggling so much at times.
defensively foot look incredible as well.
And we're seeing what they're able to do offensively in three goals in that game.
Four goals in the first seven goals.
The defense as well, there's always someone there, they're covering the infield, they're cutting through each other.
The communication incredible, we've got to give another shout out to Adam Begett.
He's got these boys absolutely dive in, he talks about it's still in confidence throughout the camp, throughout the boot camp.
bootcamp. You're just doing everything right at the right time.
And there is, understandably, even with that zero second goal, a timeout for
Furia.
We have to somehow stop this unstoppable force. That is, that is this version of
the version that people have been waiting for all season. There's been
all this talk of the kings of North America is SSG right now, energy
come back maybe your beloved rebellion CJ but foot I mean they're probably the
most impressive team for me so far from North America certainly in this game
this game is well this series so far has been flawless from that yeah it's hard
to read with SSG having such a tough group obviously KC in five then you've
got Falcons as well but that's pro who just beat third as well third as pro it's
looking good for NA North America's stocks are through the roof aside from
Rebellion maybe the energy as well just given there the weakness of the group to be honest the group of life group C
Who knows what to make of what's going on down there?
We'll catch up to that. We're actually next series. I
Do have rebellion energy?
That's forward a day on the mainstream, but meanwhile fury up. What's happened? Where's it gone wrong? They?
Too high in the group. They looked incredible against the NIP
We didn't show up against foot either both swept by both of these teams
But, you know, huge win. Game 5 against Twisted Minds.
They went 2-1 down in that series as well, though. They made it on that.
I cast that series. They were absolutely battered in it.
It's got to be said that Twisted Minds had so much pressure.
Fury was an offensive masterclass from then.
It was similar saves than what we're seeing right now from Foot,
where they're sort of looping across the goal at the last second,
thinking, surely they can't get a lot of their boots,
and they got these saves, and they did a couple of goals as well.
members of Fury are back off the timeout. They conceded a third goal inside 10 seconds.
The six second number is ridiculous in this game for foot. And Fury are, it's going from
bad to worse. They've already done the work to make their way out of the group. Two huge
wins, but this isn't confidence inspiring at all for South America. This is kind of
the Fury we've had for expecting, unfortunately, with their balls coming in. The South American
two seed they've exceeded expectations so far but we need to give props goal to this footmine up
let's go high yeah but the early goals 666 not a good omen
the fury right now actually they put a blade she's based on the victory set tries to
something doing from it and to be fair after concealing fury of them
that's just steady the ship a little bit they have to do so much more i'm not like
anywhere near like score right here car chronic
He's putting on a clinic right now, being over-commit here, oh jeez what's back, that's what I thought about.
They're the sort of counter-attacks that'll get any of the twisted lines but
Jase, you have to sit right back, go all the way, and he could clutch it forwards.
Double commit there from foot, send it, make sure they hold their head, we know that they have been
if there is a weakness for these teams later on in the series but there's no weakness for this man,
just that he tried to scare the fuck off last.
He's about to force his way through, Yann was up for it, and he can collect right here.
Minus 30 gone. Furia, what do you have for us? They haven't opened it almost, but let's guess who. Justin right there, so you get the clearance.
Not important touch there from Justin. I think that one's going to sneak in 20am, but here comes Cheese.
Beautiful car that he's got. Just to get it underneath, Jan.
Almost manages to. Chronic and Justin, both desperate for the ball. Justin's rotating back there. A little bit close with Justin.
It's a time to turn, and now Furia broke him through the line.
Cheese has to get something on this one. It's a clean touch, but Los was waiting for it. It's better play from Furia.
Still no real golf scoring chance, still no real threat, will that change here?
Justin's up there to meet Fury, they're meeting them so early in the end.
And they're back from last, but he can't fucking up target CJ.
And the little moment just like going for the baby this late, yes!
Here's the crossbar, lost across, Cronick is there!
Fury and Sabah have to score and they're still not managed.
They're just not helping each other, they're throwing them all, so they just had to be a goal!
It's to be a goal!
Okay, what's going on in the back of the net?
One, one.
I think they could have scored about six times.
Cheese even gets bumped.
They had to open the net multiple times in a row to find the back of the net.
That was a disaster class, but they get the one once gone.
If they hadn't scored there, I was going to walk off.
You couldn't have the rest of this series of stars, CJ.
I couldn't handle it.
After the goal they conceded, if they hadn't scored there,
then clearly Guria had been cursed.
But they got it in the end.
They've got an equaliser, their first equaliser in this series.
That's when they've re-found parity, have to go in behind, but Justin's up.
Ooh!
They've got that from the end, lost.
Saw what Justin was doing.
She's trying to get it over the top of Jan, but Jan gets it into the corner.
She's waiting underneath the ball, just like he was with the goal of Furious Scorg.
There's a lovely fake there, Justin.
If you get beaten here, he does.
They've been putting off a fury, can they take the lead for the first time?
Swim back!
Onto the backboard.
Crony gets an all-important touch.
Jan's there and Crony knocks it down again!
Nostalgia!
Nostalgia!
It's just Justin, he's got no booze!
gets the flick over the top by the demo.
But yeah, gets an all-important touch.
This is going to be trouble, be trouble.
And the crowd is sliding in the back of that there.
Two-on for Funt.
Justin got the demo.
Yeah, with the Ports, that's cheese snucked in.
And this is the difference.
When they get a half-chance, Funt are scoring down 1-n,
whereas Furia are just blasting the ball away with.
Yeah, I thought they got just about enough,
but lost that no-boost, so Cronick had come in uncontested.
Nothing's even tougher again for Fury, but Swift has the ball, he's going to get a reset as well from the ceiling.
Can't wait to go on the backboard, but there's been a tense again through, quite the victory lap they've been enjoying in the first couple.
They just have to play to win ugly as well.
Cronin, that's a huge save, zero boost with the free-foot, look at Justin as well, says give it to me boys.
Yeah, it's right there.
And just look panicky, Furia.
They look like me after a few too many red cordials or something.
It's just...
They're looking a little too loosey-goosey for my liking.
That's a beautiful path to swim!
Oh, that's much better!
2-2!
Furia, play on instinct.
Slam it to the ceiling, get a touch on it,
and it's a gentle touch as well.
Chronic has been so fast in the air, getting those blocks.
But that time you unexpected it.
And it was effective. And Furia have come back. Can they turn this into a series?
Cronik gets into his own corner. There's a demo trade right there, just sitting here.
He's been a little bit quiet this game. Tries to get the pump. Can't do it. Furia.
Chances. Turn this into something CJ. Yeah, I've got to get moving. 55 seconds.
to two. Yeah. Collecting. It's
now one ever for the Panthers.
50 seconds. Chronic. Thank you
now. One out. Lost. It's up as
well. She's able to read it.
Free flip. Yeah, here it goes.
Justin's right there. So much
pressure on this. Furia lineup.
Have to get the win after win
three on the bounce as well. A
For what we've seen so far, scoring has been cheesed with the passes.
It's a travel run, eh, Colt?
Yeah, it's important to get this game for Furion, not just to maybe get the reverse sweep,
but also to make sure the foot don't tree over them as far as the group is concerned.
So an all-important next goal here, lost his butt forwards, but it's going to fall cleanly to Swift.
Get something on it. Chronic, watch as that fall all the way.
Will there be any zero-second drama here? Chronic to the skies.
Jesus, there, this passing play is all the way to the end.
For butch, Justin Hyde from the shoes, save!
Oh, devastatingly close from series ending on zero.
Overtime, foot, what do you have?
Cheese has to make the save.
Wibboos, comfortable.
Starts of his overtime.
Fury have got themselves into a winnable position.
They've got to close out his OT, extend the series,
but the demos have been only one-sided.
Last but, Justin, collecting.
It takes it up top, reset, fake, takes it low, lost a new job.
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
Hell Sweat, here we go!
Fuck!
Hell Sweat!
This is half-american.
It's cheers, cronics, and just-ins moments as Furia fall to the beat.
Incredible stuff from the last Charteros.
They smacked Furia right back down.
Just when the region is having a resurgence.
North America, what a day you're having.
Well, Furia handled Europe with ease.
They took down Mina.
And in the Battle of the Americas,
they did not show up because Ft. is back in business.
Justin, the world champ is back in business.
And now there's that theme.
does that mean we have a foot number one of top of the group?
Automatic upper bracket playoff of here, it's a 3-0, it's ridiculous, it's game gift between tier teams.
I can go for a 3-0.
CJ is definitely hitting refresh on various websites that show these things.
We're on show here right now, maybe some of you guys better ask them that.
It's gotta be enough.
Arshall
Furia 5-3 they gave me to this plus
for the 3-0
This is this is ridiculous ridiculous from book. This has like a lecture for my own sign. This is great
I'm learning so much about maps right now
I'm just like I'm scrolling
It is no fun, but nothing the players can do now will change anything
It's good to get that win they have to battle though in game 3
They absolutely have to battle but in the end it's just not just through the hat-tricking game one was simply ridiculous
I'm looking ridiculous as well.
Want an answer to the current sport,
then let's head down to live with an interview.
I'm in here at the World Championships,
but jeez, congratulations, man.
You were saying that you're first top six.
Thank you, yes.
My first even top eight, man.
I've gone 9-12, like nine lands in a row outside of it,
and then this team is something special, man.
Starting the split with zero points,
coming in hot and I got I finally got top six and we're gonna keep going yeah
that's unreal man this is gonna be you guys get a day off to relax now which
is kind of do you like that you like there like I do I don't mind it yeah
yeah I'm gonna scrimm chill watch how people play yeah just chill the grind the
game it's fall man no stress tomorrow you get a chill but I'm excited about dude
that's unreal I mean this match up a 3-0 as well there's no way in your mind you
thought that that was gonna be that back that clear through yeah honestly we knew
before the series, we had a 3-1 or 3-0 to make top six at Lynch.
And our mind was just win every one game at a time.
Even if we go to game five, the start of us to win.
And man, we went out there hot.
They were stunned to be honest.
How do you do it?
Because honestly, in those final moments there
where I'm like, I'm this close, that
starts creeping in the back of the head.
How do you push that away?
I got three goats behind me.
I got Adam behind me.
I got Chronic, Justin, both experienced level players.
They calmed me down.
I calmed them down when I needed it, when we need to.
And man, honestly, I'm driving this so high right now.
I know, man.
I know, man.
This is for our name, man.
I do it for our name.
I love NA.
So yeah.
Yo, let's talk about that right now,
because right now, NA is looking all nice, man.
We're just probably looking good.
It's so good.
I love those guys.
The region is looking so good.
I mean, what do you think's going on here at this world?
It's changing that, because that is not the story.
I think everybody was thinking.
Yeah, honestly, you don't know.
We're just coming in with firepower, man.
We're just coming in hot, brewing everyone wrong.
And I'm so happy to see it, because I love all of NA.
They're all my good friends, so.
And we're home as well.
We're in Texas.
So that's it.
This is a great experience.
Maybe that's it.
Hey, dude, I'm going to let you go run some laps, all right?
Because right now, this is unreal.
Congratulations, dude.
Looking forward to see more from you.
And we got a lot more rockin' league
to look forward to as well as we continue on on day three
of the World Championships here in Fort Worth, Texas.
I want to try an experiment.
All right.
To help you unbecome your parents, I want you to try a game called Rocket League.
Ooh, is it a puzzle, like my crossword?
No, picture soccer.
Okay.
Or the car.
What, do I hang my feet outside the window?
No, not your car.
But you said, think of-
It's a video game.
Oh, okay, I get it.
Where's the cartridge?
No, it's an online thing.
Is there a joystick?
Not like the ones you're thinking of.
But I need to get some quarters, right?
No.
I gotta blow in the cartridge.
Again, like no cartridge, but you'll need a username.
Username, huh?
How about Keith underscore 9914?
The bathroom coat?
That's the only number I can kind of remember easily, so.

You can do just about anything you set your mind to.
Fort Worth, Texas.
The Unexpected City.
He has the chance to hit it.
Here's to the ceiling.
He's got the ready set.
Is he gonna hit it?
I just found an earthquake in the building as Munkyman drops a bomb on his right side
of his table.
NIP weren't so deep in the mud but if someone started getting out of this hole, all he'd
right the fake kickoff but too late is still gonna be played for Twisted Mines.
Saved by Darius. Another big stop from Jorius who had that huge comfort behind
Saved as well to deny the goal from Twisted Mines earlier and this has now
gotten interesting still not over yet Monkey Boon the drop down Ciaro. Straight
back this will be one last play. Not much boosted only the only one with it but
He's being bumped and the flick was high, but it's Kitsilai!
And they leave the ball to hit the ground!
A wild ride of a game and NIP might just reverse sweep their way in
and eliminate twisted minds with just one more game!
I can't believe what we're witnessing.
NIP couldn't do anything right this tournament.
It was going, I mean, it seemed like everything was just getting unlucky for them.
They were underperforming, they're making mistakes,
and now they find themselves one game away from playoffs.
And Twisted Minds can't, they must not be able to believe what's happening.
I can't believe what's happening.
They've won Game 5 in every single series they've played.
They beat Foot and Five, they lose to Fury and Five.
They come in today, they're not really thinking about elimination.
Usually when you're, you know, going win, loss, all in Game 5, you're safely mid-table.
But as it turns out, they can go home if they lose this next game.
And they would only be minus one in the game differential,
whereas NIP would be minus five.
And they would still go through with the head to head.
But those are the rules.
The players know that.
The teams know that.
That's the format.
They look frustrated.
They'll look at the animation.
From the ones real champ, Monkeman, Deslam,
the unabsolute bell turn in the last game as well.
And how quickly things turn.
If you're twisted minds, you're thinking,
Okay, today's going just as planned.
We stole that game.
You can't forget.
They stole a game in the series.
They were 17 seconds left with that goal went in.
They find a way to tie up that game.
They win that game and they're still in this position.
And they lost the only the trolley game
where only own goals twice and the NIP still win.
This series has been just drama.
There has been nowhere near
Twisted mind's level gameplay or NIP level gameplay in this Monkubin is...
It looks like Maldives has already been eliminated.
He is molding right now.
Looks like he's already been eliminated with how he's appearing.
Monkubin is saying I'm too old for this.
I can't... What am I doing in this E4?
Well, I didn't... I just retire after two.
What am I doing? Looking for a third one.
Too much stress, but it all comes down to one game.
Winning, you're in. Losing, you're going home.
Simple as that.
You don't need any calculations.
Any complicated tightbreakers now.
I think the pressure's not fully on them.
I mean, if you're NIP, you're looking across the table.
Yeah, you're starting to smile to yourself thinking,
alright, maybe we could just do this.
Alright, what went on in?
That's a good deal after yesterday.
It's a good deal after this start of this series.
So let's see it.
Time I Trusted Mines is done.
This game decides who advances.
So much pressure on the players.
Monkey Boon on the 50, CRR on the dribble.
Goes for a flick intercepted by Nubo.
Back up to the middle.
That one might slip through! Oh man!
Close call already for Twisted Minds.
NIP inches away from score the first goal.
Why do I feel like we're going to see a lot of that in this game?
It just feels like this is going to come down to a big mistake
rather than a big play.
I'm not sure if I'm wrong.
Don't mind a big mistake every now and again.
It can be entertaining.
Machumet, oh, double commit, double tap, still no goal.
So pass, bucked up the ball.
There's the shot, and it's in!
Nubow will strike first for twisted mines in game five.
Well, I think the game was pretty clear.
Guys, let's just actually send it.
Let's just get in there, let's take our shots.
None of this nonsense.
What are we doing, waiting around the midfield,
trying to play discipline, rock-a-league?
That's not what twisted mines is about.
It's about Gresh and it's about Pace, it's about Mechanics.
It's about making up for mistakes later. Don't worry about it in the present.
That has to be a bit of a pressure or a lease valve.
They pulled with a double commit.
TRK stays behind the ball and Monkey Boots right behind him.
No boost to get to that ball.
No boost for TRK either.
Monkey Boots has some, but still with no boost.
Loose of mind managed to get that clear.
Well, big clear. TRK looks out for it! He missed!
Sharian sides it with a simple wall clear.
TRK took off in the complete wrong direction.
We've got a single-face bump. We've got a double-face bump.
I'm going to give it a double, but I've got at least four hands to faces
from Twisted Mines in that goal replay.
Face palms all around for Twisted Mines.
There's one mistake, Johnny, will we see more?
I'm going to say yes.
I'm just going to take the yes.
And I'm investing in mistakes are coming.
I think it could be anyone.
Honestly, it could be anyone in this lobby at this moment.
It does feel like everyone is on edge.
It has not been your run of the bill rocket leak series.
That is for sure.
Oh, it's a good feeling challenge.
It's getting fairly a piece of the ball.
I love the both teams just sticking to the decline
of just outpacing each other.
That's what these two teams do when they go up against each other.
They've been packing forth all season.
And here comes the once world champion, Vance.
Is it going to TRK?
He puts it in, makes up for his earlier mistake.
And Vance is twisted by it.
Gets that redemption that he was looking for.
Lovely 50 here from Nubo as well.
Trying to make sure that that ball doesn't go too fast
into the corner.
kept that ball in a shootable position and TRK executes and you won't say you
know you're not going to take for granted any routine goals any routine
shots you're still gonna be thankful for. Rajari is just getting a piece of TRK as
he put the ball past him. Another one. Oh they got him. They're back and they do.
So Simone's piling on the pressure. They're defending the elite by trying to
add to it as they always do. Only look at a 50 effect but it's gone pretty
aggressively towards a double command fact this monkeyman
Boerslas retreats let's take over and here comes holy
This guy's split
Holy saving the best of laughs and that was after the little mix up there
TRK tries to dive in to help but ends up just giving that ball to only monkey moon. Yeah, you got the boost
but not in position
And another tilting play for Twisted Minds, a step-up play for Ole in NIP.
This battle is not over yet.
Still unbelievable.
The two teams most expected to fight into the end of this group for first place.
They're fighting to avoid the last place, it's off the post.
DRK can't follow up, Jory takes his time.
He's trying to fake this, doesn't get the reset he wanted.
He'll give it BCRR to the punch.
DRK's got 0 though, can't get it past Ole.
Here's CRR again. He doesn't get contact.
Tristan, my knees are fighting for that cardibus.
Monkey Moon.
Pushing it forward, flip reset.
Trying to get a position behind it.
You won't get it dunked on by CRR.
TRK has to be careful here.
TRK, fifting it straight to Monkey Moon.
Monkey Moon, Airborne goes for the double.
Monkey Moon.
Denied, CRR getting an extra touch on that ball
that's sent to the corner.
NIP, they have new life!
This is absolutely cinnamon for all the NA viewers.
I've already got Ft. Tan VP in the upper bracket, first place in the group,
so we got EU against Mita fighting for last place.
What a day to have NAV good again.
Minutes to go, all tied. Still hold to play for.
SolarSight for more mistakes.
Monkey Moon leaves it for Nubo, but only has shooting space.
Monkey Moon dives in, but the rebound right back to Jorias, who puts it back to the middle.
Nubo will clear it up the gun.
Dangerous play.
NIP not done yet. Only in the air.
Ball gets touched back to Nubo, sends it straight upfield.
But Jorias caught it into an air dribble.
Taking back my Nubo. Has Monkey Moon in the middle of the field.
But this one's going to go through!
How does this make it through?
NIB on different pages.
They think someone else is 50, and if a CRR doesn't play the ball,
it just goes right for him like he's not even there.
An NIB trail with 45 seconds.
Will all that work be for nothing?
Twisted mines back on top, but it's a kickoff, right in the hands of Jorius who fakes it.
CRR didn't put the shot right on target instead tried to go to the backboard
And that is denied
Darius will let it roll up the back wall picked up a full take a boost
Reset all the way to the corner and that's denied by TRK
What's right still pass the chance here for NIP one two has done so well gets it passed everybody
And I'd be up go start again, and then it's almost in the room that
Holy, the save out, Darius is backwards, has to dodge the devil, the back hit, they're
just trying to waste time.
Nubow needs to guide this ball to the ground, CRR hits it over to the corner, Darius trying
to keep it up and hits the ground and twisted mines barely survive and you can see the elation
from Nubow getting that win.
a ride that was we've got equilibrium again lose desk slam win that's like a
desk slam result doesn't matter we slam the desk twist in mind's advance
nip showed true heart and grit determination to come back in the
series and they miss out on the playoffs by one game
It was just too much. Too much of a head start for the other teams.
This was not the group stage that I expected. This result from this group was not what I expected.
What a wild ride this has been. NIP almost battling back.
Polarized gaze, trying to find my way to you
Where the space is, cornering it says
You're the feeling that I choose
I'm tired of running, cause you lose the feeling
You're disconnected in your touch
I'm not your believer
In what I'm seeing
Only the highlight can do yours
Cause I want to do now
To figure out how
You're about to find your way in your eyes
Cause I can't try to change
But what's your place then
Now the check-in is for the guys
Now the check-in is for the guys
Now the check-in is for the guys
Is connected in our touch
How do you believe it?
You wanna see it?
Oh, there's a high life in too much
It's all on you now
To figure out how
You're lost to fire in your eyes
Cause I can't change it
I just don't think so
Your whole body is in front of me
And I know what they are
And it's so clear in her, you can't see
When I'm sitting, you're saying
Don't get off, don't get off
Cause lastly I'm crying, playing now
Ooh, she told me to lie
If it's a lie, please lie
You are my love and mine
We'll be waiting for you once more
She told me to lie
If it's a lie, tell me to lie
If it's a lie, tell me to lie
The
surprises keep coming at the 2026 Rockley World Championship with footy sports 3 0 clean
Dominant win over fury it to secure the number one spot out of group B
Meanwhile ninjas and pajamas nearly do the
Unthinkable and eliminate twisted minds and monkey moon before we even make it to the playoffs, but that did not happen
No, no monkey moon TRK. Yeah, they have to make it. They have to make it
Okay, we have to be in front of crowd is inevitable whether or not he comes on top of what night is eliminated somewhere in that crowd
Mugamoon need to be a front-end crop that had to happen, but also big enough. Oh god
The original prodigy Justin yeah sensational series, but eSports three or inferior and again
We have two one seeds from two different groups as the NA4 and the NA5 seed never happened before in our LCS history
This could be North America's event still a lot to play for but for right now and a fans are
incredibly happy I
Love it. I mean when I want to think about this put teams
seeing it finally come together, seeing Cheese get past,
I want to say this is a guaranteed top eight for him.
But he's always finished.
Cheese's best performance at an event happens at the world championship.
You got Justin looking informed.
You have chronic defensively who has been, I would say,
you know, big impact on the back end.
It feels like everything's finally coming together from front.
go back to Paris and it just felt like the problem was they couldn't get the job done.
Now they're soaring to new heights.
They are soaring to new heights.
I tell you this too, they're soaring in efficiently too.
24 shots total for the teams off the whole entire set.
Shot 42%.
Not missing when they have opportunities they capitalize.
One of those like this doesn't bring it down low.
If that's the most recent one because of the way that immediate aggression from cheese
to take off the third is just a numbers game, baby.
That's what they're doing.
That's why they're effective.
You see that about emotion.
You see the passion.
They're putting in the work.
80% of the time spent ahead.
Nine off is the most equal that out to.
And they play a little more defense,
but it doesn't matter.
Because when you're playing a little more defense,
when you get top six, that's all that makes a difference.
But eSports, top six.
Top six guaranteed, Virtus.Pro guaranteed top six as well.
Two teams that, I mean, and the talk's coming into this,
I think, when I was doing my analysis,
I was sleeping on both of them.
I think everyone else was sleeping on one or the other.
Nobody was that I've been like, yeah, those two are gonna be guaranteed. Yeah, those are the leading North America here at the world
I mean wave when I think about all these in a teams that are gonna be moving forward and winning the group
Cuz I don't like it. You don't like it
Really quick, I'm just gonna go over
That could have happened for first place, but foot wins it on the head-to-head game differential
Twisted minds gets the next spot because fury lost on three that hurt their head-to-head game differential between the three tied team
So just minds they barely survived, but they get the two seed out of the group and with that
We can also show the beginnings of the playoff bracket as foot east sports of verse pro locked in and the upper bracket
They're twisted minds also in the lowers with fury down there at the bottom
So teams starting to lock in here as we've closed. We have finished up group B
We're starting to finish up the other groups as well. My goodness. It's
So we've done this for over 10 years. This is literally never happened
This is never half America has never sent their fourth and fifth best teams and they look this good
We always talk about its energy or the old days G2
We had the big three for a while. Yeah, but it's always only been three at most and then we were talking about space station might be that next
team to finally emerge with energy and first killers teams right we always
talk about them no one expected this no one had VP and foot doing this well
that's guy is the limit I'm very excited to see VP in front of a crowd it's gonna
be a lot of first times there so it's gonna probably be a little nervous but
then foot with Justin who's been here before chronic who's a major winner like
both these teams could surprise everyone this is what makes the world
championship so special because once you're in it, you're in it to win it. And it's about
how you show up on the day every day. VP, they talked about it in their interviews before we
got into the match. They knew that their season was up and down, but they said they were playing
better than ever. And that's what it comes down to here at the World Championship. If you can play
at that World Championship caliber when it matters most. Every day, it's every day. They've been
doing it. The tournament's not even halfway over. The tournament's like, we're counting some chickens.
100% still in their eggs right now.
I don't know.
I'm a little bit of mellow guy here.
I'm a little scared.
I'm afraid to hope, but folks, we have a lot of Rocket League
left to play.
We're barely even half way through the third day
of six days of competition here.
What a tournament we have.
The Ultimate Stream continues to roll on with exciting matches
like the one we just witnessed between Twisted Minds
and Ninjas and Pajamas.
Over here on the mainstream, two more matches of threes.
Before we get into the first ever 2v2 semifinals
in the history of the Rocket League Championship series,
Let's move on to more North American glory here.
NRG, reigning, defending Rocket League champions of the world,
taking on their regional rivals, Shopify or Bellicombe.
Listen, it really is. NRG slash G2 versus the first kill team.
They always show up. They always play each other at some point in a big tournament.
These two, and mainly Atomic and First Kill in particular, have been going at it for the whole entire time we've been in the open era.
in here. I don't believe it guaranteed the winner of this
against the 1C, but it's highly likely the winner of this match
will finish the 1C of the group.
Yes, and energy, they've come with a game plan.
The old energy where they have a lot of offensive pressure,
it has worked out beautifully.
2-0 in the group of rebellion looks a little lackluster
so far, but they can bounce back today.
All three of these players with dreams of making it
to the grand finals of the World Championship,
it's Shopify Rebellion.
The way I describe our 2026 season
We've been just going on the upwards trend.
You know, we won that first regional and we were feeling really good.
I think we kind of dipped down a little bit, kind of like found out the way we were playing wasn't really the way we wanted to play.
And after that, we kind of like redid our entire playstyle.
We kind of figured that out during split two and I think we felt a lot better, we showed a lot better.
Look at all the teams, like, they all look good, but I think we also look good.
You know, it's like, I think everyone's so close.
Whoever just shows up on a day, it really just depends.
It's kind of like the big three US energy SSG, like we're all really close, but I definitely think we have the edge over them.
We definitely have like individual talent. I think we could keep against the best teams better than they do.
We do have a little bit of rivalry against SSG. They're young, they're hungry, they have been improving like crazy.
But I definitely think like we can show that we are better, we just need to show it at this world.
I mean, it's the end of the year tournament, you know, it's like you just prove to everyone that you're the best team, you're the best team across the entire season.
entire season. You're spending all those hours and you know commitment and no
sacrifice. That's what you're playing for. Like it makes it all worth it.
And now I'm here with Shopify Rebellions Violent Panda VP1 earlier VP will win this
time right? I'm just I'm trying to make them start line three. Hopefully for you
guys that will happen. But I was talking to you a lot yesterday about how things
are going coming into game number three. Do you feel like that that where you guys are
at is a really good spot because I think you're in a good position like one game win and you're
in a good spot kind of thing. Yeah we're I mean almost for sure to go through but we
want to try to still get the first few cars and start a tiebreaker here. Yeah well you
got to go up against NRG to do that which you you know coming into this tournament come
questions around but it looks like they're kind of back on their stride. Did that kind
upset you that maybe they're looking good again and you're hoping maybe okay
maybe they're an easy matchup no no no I feel like we have their number if we
just do our right player game and that's all we got to do like we know that
match yesterday against my city puts on fire in our ass and we got to perform now
yeah but I think if we just play our game against them we know we have their
number so that's good I mean I guess what is it for you when you want to to get
them going get that fire going in them what's kind of your go-to with the squad
They react to something more than others like yelling at them bootcamp style or you more call like what's kind of that go-to that reacted
It's just good vibes. Okay. Just the mental stuff to be in order. We know the gameplay stuff. We'll get there
We know what we need to do. Yeah, just the mental stuff that we sometimes struggle with
But you know how we have it in order now, and I'm just gonna show it and I want to get your thoughts on this quick before I let
You go is North America asked cheese what he thought why maybe North America stepping up right now
He had adrenaline going so we couldn't think clearly for you
Do you think there's like a real secret here of why North America is actually having a great event?
I feel like in America's playing great. I feel like the EU teams I saw against them were underperforming a little bit.
The teams that played against them, but America's looking great.
Like FAT, VP, they're playing amazing, can't take it away from them.
But I think it was also a little bit the underteams underperforming.
Maybe we'll see it balance out a little bit once we get to the audience stage.
But for now, we're still in group, so I'm going to let you back to your team and get some vibes so they can get into the match good.
Yes, thank you.
Good luck.
Let's take a look at the team.
Being back here is definitely nostalgic.
Last time we were in Dickies,
we made it like all the way to the grand finals.
And sadly, we lost in heartbreaking way.
There is nothing more that I would want them
to right the wrongs.
I would just want to make it up to the NA fans
and win back to back in North America, in Dickies.
That would be, you know, better even than last year, I think.
Being the Rending World Champs is kind of, is like an honor, obviously, but it comes with it's like burden of expectations.
For around two years we didn't miss like a single top four.
I like that standard and I like how it drives us in practice, especially right now.
So while there is expectation, I think it's what lets us kind of maintain it.
What I'm trying to prove at Worlds this year is just that we are the best team of all time
and that we are capable of going back to back.
winning worlds in front of NA would be the cherry on top.
I don't know how much longer I'll play, but that would be, you know, one of the best ways to end it.
Now I'm hanging out with NRG's Sathu.
You guys have to be honestly in a good mood.
Considering you're coming into worlds here now, off a little bit of a rough patch,
but looking like you're back on that right path.
Yeah, we're definitely happy with how we've been playing.
The past couple of weeks has been filled with a lot of joy
a lot of joy and just like the strides where they can practice and everything,
see results. So yeah, we're happy. Yeah, we talked about kind of that journey,
how you hit that reset button for the squad here. It looks like they're locked
in and ready to execute on that plan that you've given them.
It looks like a lot of the other teams are ready to do that as well.
Do you feel like this is a great position for you guys to hit your goals,
given how other teams have been playing? Yeah, I mean, it's a fantastic,
you know, opportunity to show NA strength, obviously going out right now.
NA wins no matter what, right?
Yeah. We were in a similar position last year where we had an important series
against basically the Ultimate's core to get top four. This case, it's to get top six.
Still just as important. So yeah, it's a good opportunity.
We're just watching the squad. Maybe they can't give us a lot of insight to behind the scenes here.
But if we're watching certain players or a play you expect to be stepping up from your squad here,
that we can keep an eye under in this next series,
like they watch them kind of thing.
I mean, it's hard to say.
They all just kind of step up different games.
That's always been our thing.
It's like if someone, you know, we
have a new guy that's stepping up every game.
So that's always been our thing.
Cool.
Hey, well, I'm going to let you get back to it here,
and we'll see how the match concludes.
Good luck.
Thank you.
Regional rivals have clashed many times this season.
12 and 9 all time, these two organizations.
But of late, it's been NRG over and over again.
and they have yet to beat them this season.
Yeah, rebellion had lost the last two matchups in game seven
of two matches before that two sweeps from NRG.
But that's both welfare, but I mean going over to game seven
because NRG, it means something.
In particular, I watched the Atomic video right there.
He talks about history of Diggins Arena.
And he ends it with that one line.
He doesn't know how much longer he's going to play.
But it would be nice in this with a W on top in tomorrow.
I'm not being aware of that already.
No, Wave, you talked about not getting home.
I mean, that struck the core.
That just strikes you the core.
Let's tell you when he starts talking.
He's making me emotional on the gas.
No, I'm not talking to what I'm saying.
I mean, we can talk about the matchup.
The matchup is simple.
I think the matchup's very simple.
I think the chat and everything we all know.
But man, that story.
It's been a long time since the North American teams won
in front of North American fans.
How long has it been, Bates?
Eight years.
Eight years?
You talking about World Championship?
Yeah, World Championship, sure.
Or majors.
I think majors in LA as well.
Major with LA as five years.
Yeah, it's a long time.
a long time ago. So energy wants to do it. I know Tommy keep just one so didn't pull
my heart chains that much. I was like, oh, I want revenge for my mistake. Oh, you got
that last year. But that's how good these guys can be. Now they missed out on the last
two majors or the last two big events. They did not get top eight, but they have bounced
back great throughout these groups so far. They have rebellions number and honestly of
rebellion on this first day looked a little bit like split one rebellion, a little bit
of miscommunication on offense. No one helping out. So rebellion had a lot of things to fix
in this quick 20 hour window. Yeah, they really do because they went up against a man city.
Both teams did and in our G they had the office of pressure. They kept man city on the back
line and you had rebellion going against man city. They didn't do much of anything. They
just kind of sat there first killer. It was really seemed like it was all him up right
trying to make something happen. Where's L J. Where's code for rat? I saw a couple going
backwards a couple of places. I'm like, where are you doing? Like it just really needs that
type of offensive threat in order to be the team like NRG to be successful but
one thing that does go well for rebellion is that in my estimation they do play
good against NRG first-killer teams always play good against atomic teams
they always have a chance. Yeah but this is the world championship now you know
you come out day one you feel good but it's about keeping that consistency over
a course of time that's gonna be the biggest question for rebellion I believe
in this series NRG look at in world championship form they got the matchup
history. They've got the world's history for them. They're the bar that rebellion needs
to pass. Last year, the organization shot by rebellion finished 18th with the world
championship. But FK and LJ on the ultimates, they finished top six with a win here. And
assuming the rest of the group goes their way, they get that top spot. They would clinch
at least as good as they had last year. And L and Kofor, who had his rookie year, finished
top eight. You would do one day. Yeah, first skillers always been good against international
teams. It's just energy has always been a good demand for him as well. Energy usually
has his number. We'll see if you can come back on top this time. Let us know who you
think's going to win. Progressive fan vote will make our picks on the desk. That's our
rebellion or energy.
Ah, G.
He said it was simple.
He said it was simple. I had rebellion up as a higher tier coming into this event. I
did not like what I saw at a rebellion on day number one. I liked what I saw out of energy.
I think there's still some questions.
It's pretty easy group.
I'm not going to lie, but energy is getting the job done right now.
I'm going and RG has a whole bunch of words to say in RG.
I'm going to keep it.
And G is going to get this W right here, man.
Come on.
Yes.
I mean, do we sweep them every time?
And the sweep has been working.
This is an old meme from kind of the pre open era.
We're in a new era now.
It seems like it's maybe it's going to work.
Give me an RG.
Maybe it is that simple, folks.
maybe it is that simple. Does the coin agree coins, but on a great streak, it's been having
good. The fates have been in the air and they have been given down the predictions and lo
and behold, the fates have spoken for the world champs as well. For Shopify Rebellion,
what is the best phase of the game for them to dominate if they want to give themselves
the best chance here? They have to win midfield first. They can't play defense the entire
time. They're going to make too many mistakes on defense, but when they are on offense,
there's got to be two men up. They cannot be lackluster trying to grab boost while first
up doing nothing you know and he'll pass it to the midfield no one's there then
energy is just gonna counter attack on them then they're gonna be playing
defense again rebellion has to move up as a unit play as a unit which they have
not done so far and I'll tell you this they have to win the midfield well
they're playing the best team in the midfield as in our GD so they won't be
winning and I love that it's off our line boys we go energy I mean for me it's
gotta be a unique involvement from everyone but especially first killer
sometimes I've seen it in series pressure gets on the line first skill
starts to put himself back more.
Yeah, he needs to be up in front.
He needs to be active as much as possible.
Yes, and the old energy loves to play offense.
The two teams they've played so far in this tournament
love to play defense and rebellion does not want to do that.
So if rebellion can kind of punch him in the mouth early,
the energy has not played a team like a rebellion,
their play style.
So we'll see if that pans out for him.
But rebellion again, that first date was miserable.
They have to figure it out quick.
But one kind of X factor for me in this matchup is beast mode.
I feel like the energy we saw yesterday
really started to get back into the style of play that works for them.
Getting up, being aggressive, finding the bumps, not letting them have any space
on offense. But still, even in those victories, I didn't see the beast mode
that we have seen. We haven't seen the beast mode unlocked.
He didn't enter that mode at any point. I've been waiting for that.
I feel like all season I want to see that back here at the World Championship.
I mean, even at the World Championship in Leon last year, we didn't really see
the beast mode that we know into the grand finals when he really took over.
It was atomic of Daniel, basically the whole entire tournament with beast mode
filled in the gaps. That is the meat when NRG is at their best.
Bismo taking a step back. Daniel blend his best ball. You know, it must be great to the table. And if you're an NA fan home, I think you actually want energy to win this year's because if her belly wins man city if they win their match very likely wins this group because they have a good plus game differential. They've a plus one between these two teams because they
They swept Rebellion, lost 3-1 to NRG.
So unless Rebellion does something crazy,
it's like, it's gonna be tough.
Like if Rebellion wins at five,
then Energy would still win the group.
But if Rebellion wins anything better, 3-1 or 3-0,
then Man City will actually win the group.
Incredible. As long as they win their matchups.
I mean, there's part of me that feels like
having the winner's side all packed
with North American teams.
Statistically, yes, it gives us the best chance
of having a North American world champion,
but it still feels like, or peeking too early.
and need us to keep this momentum.
Those four seven goals in game one here,
that doesn't help you win the series.
You got to stretch them out, you know.
That's why I'm out of listen.
I felt this pain before.
I don't think my time, this guy right here
he starts screaming saying he's so happy.
And listen, I want you to scream.
We need people like you,
but they also need people like me
to keep things nice and controlled.
You got to be somebody who's just a little bit more center,
not necessarily fall into the any hope
you have just yet to be able to do.
This is the first time like this.
We're just, it's been crazy.
Cause he's saying teammates is controlled and like calm.
He's never calm and controlled.
I think he's, he's putting on the front.
I'm a little worried. That's what let's get an energy versus monkey mode customized matchup. My goodness
He's gonna be a loud person in the room. Okay, we know that's gonna happen fans and build it not me
They're they're they're asking for monkey moon in the grand finals. I think they're crazy for wanting that to happen
I was you're asking for your heartbreak in a third time folks will it happen?
How do you guys feel about it at home 81% has nRG a
Rebellion built on hope that they've got a lot of it over there first killers done it many times before
Can he get back to those old ways?
NRG versus first killer.
Closed out.
Groups in.
Well, the stocks for North America
are absolutely through the roof, heading to the moon.
Stacks, and it feels like perhaps the last chance
to fight the dip is for these two teams right here.
Shopify are about in.
Haven't hit their straps just yet.
The reigning world champs trying to climb the form of 2025.
And we see it right here.
Game one brought to you by progressive Eric Manfield.
As always, Koper will start it off
for rebellion right at Daniels in an awkward spot.
Two teams battling for supremacy in North America
for so long as this one's ripped on target
and Koper, right place, right time for a save on the shot
that had to be easily tripped into it.
Shot before rebellion,
slightly start forward and they were swept by man CDLJ almost with the first and I
jeff looks it looked decent it was good when it gets fancy I thought it gets
we go take off the win but wasn't their best showing just yet we know how
incredible they can be it's hard to read the form though in this group it it
looked on paper as that's the easiest group a group of lot who are calling it
across the social channels but just don't know what form these two teams are in
NA1, NA2, meanwhile the rest of North America, the rare born, their top six we've got B, B, and F, and said G looks solid as well.
What do these two sides have for us?
Alright now, B's voted off as far as Timbuff in the corner by NRG, and LJ will take advantage on a very rare defensive miscue from the Red and Jams.
19% for the chat though, don't take this one personally to rivals.
The desk squeak for NRG, both champs for a reason and have to have the respect for them, but
Rebellion is striking first, Violet Panda, coach of the Rebels, confident.
The strong start as well, I haven't seen NRG attack too much in that first minute.
Need to see that man on ball right here, Beast mode in the form of we...
It's not what he can be in, but this has him in his deadly plate down with the shot.
It is wide off the bar, three-flip, Rebellion are out.
Well, he was playing a few years ago, stuck on some pretty mediocre bubble teams.
He was the Diamond in the Rock, and it was his standout performance that landed him some
of the bigger contracts that he's gotten up late.
Eight goals now to lead his team that have only scored three others in support of him.
An incredible performance who the group has made so far from LJ.
Great touch from Kofi, the pre-slip to find the double,
but the tommy's up quick and LJ is getting Barth's turtler off the roof to Kofi,
just letting him know he's got a little bit of space.
Must pre-jump from Dan, he's been beaten to that ball,
and LJ's still struggling to scrap that boost.
His first kill is keeping the ball in.
Strong start for a belly, they're linking up well also.
And RG's just struggling to keep the offense,
but it could come right here again.
And the bomb is missed!
Atomic is missed, but it's still trouble.
Four shot for five.
First goal's underneath with low throws.
LJ's got zero.
We're at NRG.
Where's the attack?
They run their way back, because Beast Mode keeps us in the zone.
Load up the wall, and that's easily sent away by Kofur.
He'll try to land on this.
Daniel wits him out.
More pressure from NRG, but not enough.
As it's cleared out from the back line, Beast Mode looking head
He's got a demo in the net, but a big pitch clear by Kofir,
relieves all the pressure.
Two minutes to go.
And a couple of walks now, NRG, that warming up into this game one.
And you see, so often online, but...
What's much in this state of a competition in the World Championship?
We've just got to throw it across.
First killer.
Looking in. Keep control of proceedings.
This is pretty quick to the ball.
at least not in Orbitol.
This is trial for a terrible touch.
The pitch as well, at least not at that old bout.
There's both of them.
Blinks it across, had Berskiller for the pass.
Shopify just trying to ease their way into this.
I say ease their way, try this free jumping.
Not sure what we're doing here, we're gonna go up.
North America trying to beat the allocations
and pop as many groups as seemingly possible.
NRG though, find themselves trailing.
Inside a buck 20 here in Game 1.
Now it's Atomic.
Nothing there as Gophers got another clearance.
Gophers been outstanding defensively in the early stages of this game.
Now first kill it a pop it away.
Atomic waiting underneath!
That first killable score!
There's just so much happening in there for Atomic.
We had to watch this touch here from Kofi, but then again it's NK with one more.
Bottom left. We've seen a few time stacks with NRG.
Basemart opened up the net to the other ends.
The storm sick event. Where is it?
Where's the teamwork that we see from the World Champs?
The full differential of plus 15 for NRG coming into this.
The final match of the group stage.
And they still haven't done enough to secure the top.
As they're getting the fight of their life from Shopify Rebellion.
and LJ has Koper forward.
He can turn on this ball as well,
despite the lack of boost.
More time ticking off the clock here in game one
as Jaffa Fireballian has first killer up to the ceiling.
Bubble from LJ looking for his ninth call,
which is just bonkers for him.
Now down to 20 seconds as NRG finally get out of the zone
and Koper's got another stop at the back wall.
And Dan didn't want that gorgeous thing as lofty
as it was in the end.
First killer's in a little bit of trouble Dan,
with a shot, a skill of three flips his way out of the defense to keep the ball clear.
Is that going to be enough?
NIG has to score right here right now,
but they've only got two men in the attack as LJ kills time.
And will this be a shutout clean sweep?
We shot the foreign belly in game one, 19% of the chat by NATO, chair.
And I'll take the first.
What is it with North American teams
and an overwhelming number of shutouts?
Shopify Rebellion delivers one here as NRG gets shut out for only the second time here in the group stage.
It's a strong start to Shopify.
NRG, I mentioned they had chances in the offense as well as that, but no second man to be seen.
It's one up two back and that disconnect is so clear on the world stage.
Looking for the teamwork, looking for the connection of a team that has been together
for the longest in the entirety of this e-sport.
The greatest roster of all time.
Not seeing the connection right here, Stax.
This is a Shopify rebellion team
that they have been playing second fiddle on paper
an awful lot to NRG over the past couple of years.
These players in particular,
but they have a chance to really muddy the picture here
in this group because again, everything looks so clear.
Oh, if NRG wins, they're on the top of the group
and then everything else falls into place.
But a shop of our rebellion wins here.
And all the different tiebreaker scenarios come into play.
As we go to game two at Forbidden Temple,
we can tell you that game one just ended
in a lengthy overtime over on the ult stream.
And things are getting real interesting here in Group C.
I'm sure you checked out.
Who shot TV4 slash RLE sports.
Both matches happening at once.
Group C finalizing its position after this series.
these two series happening.
And for Inter game two, there is a team in blue
that would like to see Shopify get the win.
Forza three-way time breaker at two and one.
In this man's city,
no one's gonna be NRG.
No one's spotted they win this with their heads ahead
over the Europeans.
See what NRG have to score against Axe.
That's rather alarming for a team that has been
so great offensively up to this point
Yes, that's how McMigg is the same. Halfway into his goal.
Now powered away downfield. First kill has got a good read off the corner, but B-Smoke's right there.
Can he get down onto this in time? No. Bottle up from McMigg will find it up to the bar.
B-Smoke did so much work. He was actually an incredibly poor touch from First Killer.
He just got too much heat on it, trying to follow it himself.
He was always going to be second to that one with B-Smoke coming off the ceiling.
Toys for trying to watch the second time to follow from the base
Get a native triple kickoff
That's right. Oh, he's at a ball and a special
Okay
Oh, they all got back, but there's a double demo from Daniel
now beast mode
Looking to get this ball down in front, but copers there as he has been much of the first
Nine or seven minutes of the series
It takes it up top.
One more over, and that's get bump.
This girl on the backboard as well.
You've got the hunger for this, but he's up in an all-good spot.
The whole of her failure in an all-good spot.
And Tomek's there for the second.
2-0. That's better for the world chance.
Sooner rather than later,
they were not going to be able to deny him.
Tomek with both goals here for NRG 13
in the group stage.
Atleads all scorers currently on the pitch.
This mode.
Gets bumped off that one.
LJ in first killer right there.
He goes looking for the close double.
It's on the green.
He's so well.
Two players that have been pillars in North America.
Spiked not ever really being able to be on the same side of the pitch.
Beast mode.
Who's this outside?
LJ.
Just at the backboard.
Rebellion.
Now themselves in.
All the opposite position to the first game.
First goal.
Rebellion's still able to keep pressure on, but the safety connection's not
still in control for NRG.
Well, awkward at midfield, who's gonna blink here now?
With NRG firmly in control of Game 2.
Massive bounce back for the reigning World Champs.
That's well read by Atomic, just following the play all the way to the wall.
Daniel Goodfiffy and Tomek set it up for Beast Mode off the bar and set away by first-killer.
He's had an absolute...
He don't tell me to go near the other end!
Uh-oh!
I'm gonna have Beast Mode as Beast Ends!
Let's chop him off to a goal, swinging it back in the game!
Hell, then, LJ gets that much behind that pass.
NRG could not keep up.
And a two-goal swing effectively goes in favor of Shopify Rebellion.
It's those moments I mentioned.
The stocks for North America being through the roof, but NRG.
I don't know who it was, Dazzle or someone on the desk.
They're back in World Champs, you'd call them.
They might be two and open.
They're not playing like World Champs.
We haven't seen it just yet.
Beast mode.
Not shooting as we saw in 2025.
In the on.
And Tommy, off the corner, pops it up, gets the bump on Kodak for best kills in trouble.
And LJ is backwards out of the way, that's set up, and Beast Mode answers back.
Look at this, from Tommy, Kofa, get out of here.
And then a fastball, just puts the difference from Beast Mode.
His first goal of the series, and then RG back up by two.
It's a pretty panic there from LJ.
I'm not sure why he's kind of, well, it just has to be Panic.
I'm not sure why he's flipped backwards, yes,
because he's just Panic, but it's his height.
There are too much analysis right there.
Certainly could have made the save if he flipped forward.
Dan's trying to run this one backwards,
and NRG in control.
When they do have the lead,
they look a different team, they look far more comfortable,
and you'd expect them here with 90 seconds left
to be able to just kill enough time.
And Kofa's looking to attack,
he's looked for the little mustard to outgave it on that power.
What can Atomic do here from his own back wall, trying to go through Kofir, that's
incredibly well controlled.
He's going to lose possession here and Beast Mode powers it away with Daniel already down
field.
Got a boost steal and then Beast Mode's shot is dismissed by First Killer.
Got a demo on the side as well and our G could turn on this.
Beast Mode does, forces way through two and now trying to get around.
Yeah, and he just about has the first killer does enough to get this out of home play.
I love that top two from these guys, look at get one and two at first killer and also put him in the spin cycle in the corner still.
He was able to make the touch across the safety, they need two in a chopper fight.
Well it's going to be NRG entering back, we're going to get a game five North American classic between the top two seats potentially.
They're not playing like the top two seats from North America as of yet, but a long way to go in this series.
Kofir can run onto this, but there's nobody over there.
LJ had to start from his back line as well.
Beast mode, not able to beat Kofir.
All first field could do a sort of downfield.
Kofir could do something with it.
Instead, all they found was Atomic.
Choppa Fireball, running out of options,
running out of time here in game two.
The running world champs have inched back where the 40 is.
Daniel gets on the board, and then RK will try the series.
Hey, LJ, just got his first bit of man there.
you know 1v2 situation of D-Smoosh is hunting it down since he did miss that wide over chance.
You stepped up in this game to secure the win and a strong response as well. 4-1 is a hefty
scoreline after dropping the third, not scoring in the first, 2-4-2, D-Smoosh once again showing
these levelling up in the series and we got a tie ball game between two Titans of North America.
I mean while over on the old stream Manchester City confidently in control of
their series as well and the playoff picture becomes just a little bit more
clear as things go on here still some work to do here between shop part of
rebellion and NRG however is now rebellion CJ have to solve this puzzle of
All right, what do we do now that NRG are not stymied offensively?
Yeah, it's a difficult situation now for Rebellion.
Man City win that game there.
Unable to take first spot in the group.
The game this is pretty ordinary.
They got swept by Man City.
That's not going to help in a three-way tiebreaker.
NRG, if they can win this,
they can be the third North American team for guaranteed top six.
Wouldn't that be ridiculous?
this. That's the arena for Texas Home World Championships. You've got the
World Champs guaranteed top six and you've got two surprise packets. We
paid for as well.
Still as as the age old that it goes right? It's not how you start. It's how
you finish and thank goodness for that for the benefit of NRG because I mean
as the reigning world champ listen, we've had a lot of seasons where the
world champs have a really, really poor start in the following season. NRG
personified that but now they are two wins away from top in their group and
having a shot at a relatively quick half the top four but they still have to get
through shop of our belly and we were shown what a minute life here in the
early stages of this final series in group C
A little bit slow, and 19 seconds in.
I don't think he made it through a counter attack here.
It was Elgide flicking it out of first kill,
and though he had the pike stance, it's no thank you.
The passion there from Sathu trying to fire up the boys.
19 seconds in.
Everybody goes for it again for a shock of fire.
A million this time.
It's not going to cost them either.
First killer does get back in time,
but they are still going to be behind the eight ball,
Just a little bit.
It's LJ, gonna run out of boost,
trying to control this ball.
It goes right back to Daniel on a fortuitous bounce.
And this will fall right into his lap as well.
The first killer has to make the stop.
Now it's good save for first killer.
That's how many wins that won't be won,
dual against Dan.
He's trying to work the ball down the line.
He knows he had a demo from a teammate,
and he's about time for the respawn.
That's so first killer's there, but he has low boost.
It's a nice flick over, but got deep in our gear sitting.
How to launch it downfield.
It's on, it's on again, Axel.
You see Daniel looking for bumps and just being that link up player downfield.
So often stuck to that man, I like the shift and when he's confident, when he's pushing
downfield, it's on an North American fans lock to see.
Instead of not just a little mass on the other side of the field, the chopper fire
rebellion has to deal with.
Here goes, go for those great control in the air.
Beast mode's got to blind up and the 50 goes down out towards LJ.
Beast mode, let this one get away.
Shot for Fire Valley can lob it in again, but Atomic sure handed out the back to find a teammate in Daniel
No signs of either team tracking here a minute and a half gone through here in game three with NRG still in front
And they're playing a very safe third man here in RG and it's been disbanded something to his looks incredible
That just shoring up the defense always being an extra link
In case there is any chaos happening downfield, LJ's finding some demos.
Once again it's Tommy, just hitting it nice and high, I love the touches.
This is all very off the ground, RG.
He's going to leave it.
New head support, B-Smovers there.
Once again, it's just that safe approach.
One now, you know it is mean to bomb it.
It is very effective for the World Champs at 1-0 scoreline.
That's a touch.
Unconvincing in defense though with the double comms.
Chopped both belly and tried to tie things up.
It's two minutes 40, half the game gone.
But still, NRG, since that game,
want to look a better team.
Oh, Beastbug had Kofa in his sights.
Just got around it.
Atomic avoid contact.
This is that off to the corner.
Everybody there is offensively for NRG.
And of course, when they score early,
so difficult to come back against.
It's like trying to punch your way through a brick wall.
Kofor kicking away by Atomic, LJ forward at midfield, he's left it for first
killer and Beast Boat will just collect this all for himself at the backboard.
I'm not sure why rebellion is just smacking the ball and they've got such a sight
in day third man and looking for bombs, Kofor is down!
I think it was Kofor as well, they've just got a little bit of a bump on
Daniel, took him out of the play and then he'll score it himself at height
fourth annual all the way to the other side to look for boost and nobody else
could get there in time to put a hand up for him right play from Kopa we saw
that when he was on space station game he with it with the rookies from North
America that can reveal and he's got to be that chaotic player
what this mode was covered in low boost and it had to go early
Yeah, it was off the wheels, it was a unique finish, but a court turn, that being it,
he just wasn't expecting the shot above him.
I think you just assumed that somehow Beast Boat's gonna keep him away from the play.
It looked like maybe he'd be able to screen him off any kind of incoming pass.
It just never happened.
To give LJ his night goal again to lead shot before a rebellion by a significant margin.
Cool.
Beast Boat wanted a bit of pass there, he's...
It's been a touching consistent, not only in this game, but just throughout the season,
First Killer's got a double one all the way, rips it on top!
Three-one to shot by Rebellion, a one-goal down, you don't see NRG lose leagues like this too often,
but he found space downfield, that attacking third has been deadly for the Rebels.
And just First Killer had them dead to rights, there was no way he was going to be denied.
and all of a sudden shot by Rebellion giving NRG back a dose of their own medicine.
He's trying to run away here in game three.
I'm going to try to boost as well.
Both are under 50. Tommy finds a clear beast mode one-fold.
There's no one in the middle for Rebellion. This is an odd situation.
It's first kill if you want to avoid the bump from Beast Mode.
Dan's going to take it straight up top, but he dropped the roof, coached her underneath.
What's that corner boost? Just got a score for him in the end.
He's throwed his bums. He should be pretty safe now.
55 seconds rebellion looking ahead to the match point.
Rebellion looking for the ball.
Well, NRG won game, 0-4-1.
Shelter plays a weak and no-just that as well.
They were stifled against Manchester City, outscored 6-2.
Bounced back in a big way over the coaches with a 9-4 goal differential.
CJ, what are you feeding these boys?
They are putting it up now, they're lining up the scoreboard against the World Champ.
No involvement for me, no involvement at all as far as panning,
and he's happy with the boys, we saw it on the camera there.
Loving the lead cut play, when they're working as a team,
when it's not just 1v3 gameplay downfield, that's the best of the rebellion, that's why.
They've had been pretty consistent, they look strong in parry,
they're a little bit disappointing in EWC.
They lose to Space Station Gaming in 7, that form is stacking up, and they got scrapped by Nancy, they've got to make up for it here, they're 15 seconds away, they've got to move on to match point as well.
They look like with NRG having all the momentum, Rebellion just snots her right back.
NRG looked like they had stabilized.
They put a 4-1 beating on Shot-Farfire Ballad in Game 2,
and the Rebels have answered back in a huge way.
Massive response.
Did anyone predict this?
The deaths certainly didn't. 19% of you might have.
In the chat vote.
This felt like a 50-50 game coming in,
I mean, just because the form was so questionable
of these two sides,
online NRG with an incredibly dominant head-to-head record,
but I just don't know what team NRG
gonna be throwing out on the pitch time and time again.
It's just the inconsistencies are creeping in,
and it did smell like it gained five
when we looked at this series, Dax.
I'm still not confident that Rebellion
are gonna close that in four,
even though they did just win four-one.
Every game seems to take on a life of its own especially when these two teams play each other and I think that's a massive credit
To the gentleman behind both of these teams. Saphue, Violent Panda, to the best. Yep, two great leaders for their squads
Never get too high, never get too low and now it's on Saphue with this time out for NRG
To help solve this puzzle and get the boys refocused
He said there's just been a lot of joy, I think the word that Sathi used throughout the boot camp in there.
Come back throughout the season trying to find that form again.
Atomic mentioned yesterday in the interview that it's gone away from blaming certain players or thinking about the roster as a whole,
but just keeping it simple, individual mistakes and that's fine.
fine you know we can we can move on ownership of your own mistakes as well
we're rather than pointing fingers they've become that team again that team
that held the greatest title the pinnacle of this e-sport the world
championship trophy of 2025 can they do it on home soil though is the
difference can atomic do it at tiki's arena well so in the group stage and
right now they're trying to just beat their own right now
into a regional battle that he's looking tough for them.
I know teams don't try to forecast anything,
but you know, Shuffle Fire Valley
probably came into this inspector, no matter what.
We're probably gonna end up as the three seed
out of this group, barring something really crazy.
And that's how it's looking like it would shape up now.
Even if they were to win here, Manchester City
probably gonna take care of business
and the game difference will not gonna be enough.
They have a chance to really spoil what was looking like a potential return to form for
NRG.
Can they do it now with 5-4 minutes at Yatukya Koseya?
Well, if they're looking after those good of North America shopper fire, they would've
wanted NRG to go through.
They don't want it to bounce this fight.
Being from the same region, you're doing it for yourself right here in shopper fire.
One game away, taking down the Welsh chance in the group stage, which is going to do
one to spoil their confidence heading into the playoffs won't be it number one
seed if it is shot by five these notes takes it up it's a different space in
terms of there is space first killers on the back for resetting behind that
shopping line now and dad buys first first strike to the world champs I want
to jump like this phone back the other way around first killer who was your
like 40 seconds there he's working so strong on ball and that's what we saw
when they did win the boat champion chips he was doing as he plays first
skill was found at the bottom here on the shuffle my happy responses and if you
be
no support of the demo you as a whole being there's someone back you tell me was
hoping Dan could get there but they just isolated the man with zero in the tank
We wonder coming in would LJ get any help? It has been a balanced attack. All
three members of Shuffle Fire Valley and putting in equal work. And Copper has
been an absolute backbreaker for NRG as now first-killer in the direction of
LJ. And NRG find an answer for Copper and if they do can they then stop LJ and
first killer. It's a tall ass for anybody.
Sintonic will just have this on the back wall and across.
He's just going to keep a nice close, nice and tidy,
but has been intercepted, demoed, lands LJ off the roof.
Incredibly aggressive.
Can he want more of this, not to be.
Tommy with a quick double, Cope, a nice face,
and LJ's already up.
LJ to the roof, back to Cope for up to there.
Cope with the shot shot there.
Oh, it's been trouble for NRG off the bar.
One more. Where's Baskiller going to come in?
It's going to play safe.
Rika back close.
They're firing in our GVC beast mode.
Time and time again with what a boost
struggles in this game.
The chopper fight, unable to stall.
There you go.
This have taken a game for Manchester City.
OK.
We're not quite out of the woods just yet.
As the wings heat up.
What a McNamagrip Sea at Atomic.
Making the save.
First killer keeps his ball alive for LJ now,
but Gopher's all the way back.
NRG should be able to clear and they do.
Another win for base mode.
They nearly led to an opening to that point
at the 10 mark.
That's a great 10 mark down.
They saw the things.
Kofi's in big trouble.
Kofi's got no points.
And Dan gets his second.
For Gopher, it's just a sitting duck in the net.
First killer comes out.
Gopher knows.
Beast mode's behind them.
He's getting a little antsy.
Have to guess right.
He did not.
Daniel has his fourth goal here in this series, NRT back on top.
Daniel is either side of just isolated the defense for both teams and that's been the way through.
That's been the ticket, the rest of the four successors, he's closer off the route.
He'll have boots as well, he resets over one.
But it's on me, and that's been missed a consistent four NRG.
And there's another one, focus on it!
It's three bombs, bang, bang, bang, either way.
And it's two-two.
by LJ taking peace mode out of the play.
Kofa now at his fifth goal of the series to lead all scorers.
Big step-up performance from Kofa at the World Championship.
He's got to step up. This is it. This is where every team, every player is taking it.
This is where Atomic's starting to play for the Smiths. It's on the front for Kofa.
Sput yourself in half-way. First kill is Juppi out. It's just clear.
The attacking line of N.R.G. off the world champs.
It's obvious they're going to touch off, but he's lost possession.
Beast Mode zeroed through the gap.
They're a little bit of strong here in N.R.G.
They look like they're in a fantastic position.
They've just caught themselves in all sorts of dance cups across.
It's a great rotation.
And they're out of danger, perhaps.
Beast Mode up the ladder, but doesn't have a second touch.
This could be dangerous.
Oh, there's Lair!
Double distance for N.R.G.!
You've had such a safe third man, but this time Atomic rotates into the front post
to all three members of NRG in the defensive corner.
And that's an ono when you're at this stage or you're playing diamond-long ranked games.
You get caught out back post.
LJ buys 3-2, Shopify coming up to the last 90 seconds.
Kofi's looking for two.
He's going to get some touch.
And they hang on for 90 seconds and spoil the champ's party.
A five-piece boat with very little in the tank, does just enough, here goes Dan, Atomic
back into the play, he'll take to the skies over LJ, first killer there to stop him, but
Daniels rebound, far down and in!
He's showing up Dan, that's a hat-trick, when he's team it needed it the most, when the
Well, Chance needed it.
Daniel has been so precise when he gets a hard chance.
3-3, there's still a lot of way out in this series.
Daniel Reddick, first killer, positioned himself well
to get it downfield.
And here comes the chance.
Beast mode, waiting, waiting.
LJ on the first killer, Colfer lurking, in behind everybody, here he comes!
All the lead and Atomic says no!
Love to see First Killer throw a pass to LJ, then he went to the low 50, but that was a wide open back post pass.
I think it was a wrong choice.
I don't find...
A couple ahead goal, could be the winning goal, could be the series ending goal,
and it's shot to find me, my NRG is trying to keep himself alive, they're still getting very tangled.
Daniel having to lane, having to use 100 boosts to shop a fly.
Ah, looking to more comfortable team.
NRG, they're getting isolated.
There's never anyone back close there.
Funny, the gap here, rebellion.
They're not getting the goal just yet.
Oh, that's not been clear to LJ and First Killer.
Both have to drop.
Final seconds of regulation now.
Daniel, got it down.
Beast mode to the heavens.
Oh, it's clean with my cover, almost giving away
Well the game went over, first killer saves the day!
That was nearly the best.
Mone pass, you could possibly witness
that it's a great save from FK, LJ Panicking.
Jumping all over the place.
Mone teams, Panicking's light, but here's Dan,
he's got a hatchet go ready, he snills the corner moves.
It's huge, but it's on him.
He's moved from first killer, Mone.
The ball fell off!
Every good game, but I can't win four!
Daniel plays hero thanks to a massive demo in front.
I think it was Atomic who ran forward to clear the way.
And we go to a Game 5 decider and we wouldn't have it any other way.
It's just stuck at Game 5.
Looking to chop a Fire Embellion, NRG group stage match.
He's ranked of a Champions build.
And we go the distance.
It's been shaky on both ends for this one man on this pitch that is stood above the rest.
892 points if you don't mind.
Four Daniel.
That's all?
Formants.
My gosh.
Just had his hand prints on every aspect of NRG coming back to force game five.
down with about a minute and a half remaining they find the equalizer almost
ended there with Atomic coming across and then Atomic deletes LJ sends us to
champions field that's four goals from demo is both teams through a pace in that
game four as well you can see how much trust how much reliance there is on that
third man stacks but if you can isolate them if you can get the bomb to demo it
just explodes the the rotations that the structure of both teams just
collapses. No time out. No time out. We've seen this already once today. Let's see get us back in
business Rebellion, win the kickoff, it's first killer up top 30s, only got a
and tell me to bet he's looking for the low 50.
Copebri!
It's 1-0 to show the five.
Look at Copebri just cut in line here.
Not standing around the way.
Excuse me, don't mind if I do.
And Copebri strikes again with another clutch goal.
What a start.
Seven seconds in.
It's been game for game.
Trading bloters exchanging.
Goals on the way.
LJ, that's a good touch.
Topic's in a little bit of trouble.
The preflip is enormous.
Now, Dan, what's he got?
He's put four in the back of the net on Utopia.
He's looking for more on Championsville.
And we've seen him doing the final game with so many
serious reps, career, and he's going to wreck the oil chase
underneath.
Well, we see a little more ambitious offense
out of Shufflefire Rebellion.
You call it, I'll suggest it.
Back post has been open quite a bit,
but it is still a very risky play.
Tommy is going for the base.
Tell the damn who's looking to call him off,
but he's been demoed by Kofa, and first kill is 150.
Has free reign on this ball.
Roses across to low boost.
Kofa grabs mid.
Zell J is trying to play that patient third man.
Instead, he just pops it up and he's called out.
He's have to go off the roof to make this save,
but Kofa can collect.
Nice pre-flip from him.
Always has the mechanics on board.
First kill is just going to back off.
Actually, a smart point here.
No, he's probably way up.
These guys I mean it's like they all have to use the time stone they can see so
far into the future they so familiar with the opposition beat boat running
across for the save and now Daniel just try to roll it out LJ is all over it
now Gopher got a position himself there's no challenge forthcoming and Daniel
just having a way from the back line but something far better doing an excellent
off, keeping NRG at bay and burning more time off the clock in the early stages.
It feels like so many talents you see members of NRG, particularly B-Smo, with zero boost
out of nowhere.
Has it been as prominent on the shopper by a guy inside of B-Smo, troubles me, go get
credits and just have to boost the life of Kofa who's feeling downfield.
Playing that, man just working in the attacking third B-Smo, but then it's the POM reset,
it's on the backboard, there's no one on the backboard for a guy, and the first killer
off the deck.
Thanks, good of that, Tonsh.
Ken confirmed.
LJ, LJ, LJ to the bottom!
All right, at the goal line, swept away.
LJ's gonna circle around and end up hurting him.
He turned to midfield and gave it a look.
I think it's been very clear, CJ, that some of our ball is not going to press the infield.
But they got a...
And it'll score! Double the lead!
What is that group going for?
Oh, oh, oh!
I thought he got it!
miraculous time for his brief moment zero
and boos and he just drops a dive on LJ's head.
An incredible safe counterattack in out of nowhere.
It turned all the way in.
Manchester City have been still spot
somewhere in the playoff bracket.
We know the three teams.
We will see at group C. Now we have to determine the order.
Jump of our rebellion doing all they can for the benefit now in Manchester City.
This goes down to the corner, hopped away, it falls right to first killer, down to two minutes now and NRG need to get going.
And Dan put four on the board in Utopia.
And NRG haven't found the back of the net, two minutes left, first killer underneath.
Mr. Lays is touching, we had a gap between ball and fish mode.
Tommy, over to Dan, rips it across, has peace road underneath, he's got to take the first
touches, looking to follow it underneath.
Tommy's going to get involved, but first go to the mode, makes it clear, pin him 40 left
now, shot twice to deal with the two goalie.
Daniel still downfield, saw this a lot earlier in the series, but now he has to come back.
They had a one goal deficit, with about this much time left in game four.
Now they're way behind! What a sit-up! As Copper takes advantage!
This is LJ just popping off in game 5. Siddling reset to a free jumping coach, but who just backed his man in
to get the touch up to backboard. He can see Kofa say, what a pass!
Minute 25, three new chopper fight.
Oh, first killer! Up the kickoff, and he's just slamming up the crossbar!
Still a glimmer of hope for NRG to get by LJ, but not past first-killer and makes up for it on the other side.
Now it's Tommik looking for help, finding Minimal as that's swatted away by first-killer down to the final minute now.
And the victory celebration can almost start.
They can just get one more stop, almost certainly NRG will be out of time.
So Skilledite finds the touch and it's looking incredibly likely now to shot for 5.45 seconds.
They just haven't been able to get the attack going. Berskiller is low boost so there's a pop.
Both bats are three and Blithman. Look at the recovery from him and he's beating it.
Sommick as well. Beast mode. It's been in this situation but that's not going to do it for him and he's gone for the pop to the backboard.
Berskiller's always going to be able to make that touch.
I don't know if they're down now. Get his desperate. Silly Greasy. He's missed and it's always underneath. Three and one. Still time.
Still time, but it would take an absolute miracle from NRG.
27 seconds remain, as even that one barely found its way inside the post.
What do they have for a kickoff though? This is where they go their best trick.
They just go straight on.
Daniel to the ceiling, popped away with 20 seconds.
Good win by Fismo.
Could he get it?
Oh! Saved away by first killer again!
Spoke down the bump and it's all they just couldn't find the ball.
And then up here with smoke screen, it was just a little delirious,
but that's got to be it.
Shove him by rebellion.
Take down the world champs.
He gained five.
And that's a huge win for a team that was struggling to find form,
that was swept by Man City.
It was game for game, goal for goal.
There were moments for each play out there.
It was the Rebels who get a win on the board.
The Rebels well-armed.
And first-killer at Atomic, just destined to do this dance forever and ever.
In a day where Shopify and Bellion as an organization had to sit there and watch Wavy, two-piece memory.
Make their way through to the top six then watch Justin popping off.
They thought, when is the current team going to be able to step up and get a little win on the board?
And they've done it right here. A huge win over NRG.
The head-to-head online. It's been so unfavorable for Rebellion.
It has been NRG always getting the win. We've seen Grand Finals with these two sides.
So you can surely we're going to get a close one and NRG just stepped up.
They're right here on the world stage. Dickie Zarina.
It went to game five. It went to champ field.
They've made their way through Rebellion, two-one in the group.
I'm not sure how much that'll do, considering I believe men's city stacks.
I know you've got the numbers right there.
Wanted to do too much for placements for seating.
Huge win for confidence is important as well.
NRG, where do you go from here?
Well, NRG, we know they will go in front of the crowd
where everybody else, not Dan Baguga, here in Group C.
But in shock of our rebellion on top and they're standing by with Lee
I'm down here with lj after the victory congratulations lda on taking down the the previous world champions
Yeah, thank you. I mean, it's it's always a tough match against them. Um, first time being in the season
So i'm really uh, really excited about that, you know, it's nice. It's been a tough match for us this year
But i'm glad we did it here good little bonus goal here and this is a good place to do it too
Have the world champions, right? Like it kind of proves where you guys are at right now
I wanted to ask with that especially with you know energy talking about that rough patch feels like they're getting back into the
Swing of things here
Do you feel like you know a team like that's back to where they were last year or what's your take on them?
I mean, I think they're definitely getting there for sure. I just think like you know matchup right now
I think we just we put our game like yeah, you did we kind of bounce back from yesterday
I'm really happy we did so what was it?
What was I guess that that difference between yesterday and today to be able to make that bounce back?
Was it just a like a mental adjustment? What was it a adjustment on the field?
I just think it was there to be honest.
I mean that happens.
Yeah, like I just we just reset yes, and we bounce back. That's all we do.
Yeah, now I want to talk about something that happened in the game game three there.
I don't know if you remember this, but Kofi had the squishy save that came out there and I forgot who scored it
But it went up field turning to a counter attack to me. It looks like
How do you figure out when you need to turn up field like that?
Is it just a risk that you kind of assess?
It's just instinct honestly.
Really? Yeah.
Yeah, I play so much like I just I just feel the I just have a feeling you know
That's all it is. You just got a feeling you're gonna get a rocket league just get a feeling a I got a feeling you guys
You're gonna look good the rest of the tournament because a great win
Congratulations, we'll let you go now because we got a lot more rocket league to get to so let's go to break
Let's get some snacks stretch your legs and we'll go to Casey and Falcons coming up right next
Okay, the calmer is fixing that burst pipe.
It should be all set.
Good thing you protected 24-7 with your home and auto bundle from Progressive.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm just trying to figure out the right caption to post about these.
Oh.
Maybe something like, I have protection, just need a lifeguard.
What about that emoji with a shocked face?
or maybe flooded with emotion.
That's too much.
Try Tuesdays or Craigs.
You know, technically, you don't have to post everything
that happens online.
What?
What do we believe you?
You like these meaningless affirmations, am I right?

I
Read that
I
It's fun enough to be a boy
Don't you listen to me
Cause I don't care about
Being behind the field
Following in my dreams
But I don't know
Look out and see me
I'm having my things in
I
I'll rock and you'll lay in peace and sleep
I need you
I need you
I think I need to close this
Saw you in the red dress
I can't seem to understand
How you got all that funness
Still been running in circles inside my head
Wasn't looking for love, but baby, I found you instead
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I can't ignore how I was born
Yeah, I was not seen, I was seen
Stop hard, hard, and you may be seen
I didn't know I was a casualty, but when you're gone, can't find no remedy for any of your enemies.
Welcome back to Fort Worth, Texas.
If there's anything you think you know about how Rocket League works, maybe just maybe
question it a little bit, folks.
Rebellion has come out in five games after everyone on the desk.
Look at that.
It's the absolute Oracle of a coin today.
Said that energy would win.
A rebellion comes up on top.
And I gotta give it to Rebellion.
That's a quality of a great team.
They realize that they had a bad day.
They figured out their mistakes
and they competed versus energy incredibly well
to beat them in five.
So, welcome to them and make those adjustments.
To win, unfortunately, it doesn't mean they top the group.
And it was also the first time
that Rebellion managed to take down NRG this season.
You can clearly tell that they've got that monkey
off their backs and they're thinking,
okay, good, we can do that.
You can beat your domestic,
you know, number one a lot of the times
that it may will give you that confidence
going through into much more an international bracket.
I mean, as we watched the highlights,
Gibbs, I feel like Kofa in particular
had a highlight series.
I've seen his name's flashed up with some fantastics,
or at least with the goals.
But it also felt like NRG left something on the pitch.
Yeah, my one concern was if NRG has to play a lot of defense,
I'm a little bit concerned.
Because, again, 2025 was all about the offensive pressure
for NRG.
And it felt like a rebellion was upfield a lot.
And multiple members were upfield a decent amount,
making the passes to one another and making them work.
Atomic, he keeps scoring like he has done what he needs to do
in the squad.
Daniel Teesmo maybe a bit quieter throughout the series
case.
Yeah, it does feel like my Atomic is doing a lot more.
This is set up by Dr. Taney's.
Teesmo does have to be better though.
8% shooting percentage, and that's not enough.
That's not good enough for a player who is known for being
a striker.
And then Daniel especially to just be able to more impactful
in moments.
But look at that, the SR team, they moved on.
And they seem to really play really well
when they go against the LJ.
They have a fetal.
There's no last season up until now,
but the last two freeings match in the 4S don't be.
And they go to game seven.
Yeah, I was very impressed overall with what we saw from Rebellion.
I think that they seem like a much more complete package
compared to NRG.
I think that they have a lot more creativity
when they had their chances.
That was the occasional whiff or error.
There wasn't somebody in the midfield waiting for the pass.
They're NRG that did just a lack on the final finishing details.
You got 18 off as a demo.
You joined with the shooting percentage.
But what?
How powerful it was for NRG.
It's a great demonstration of just how much pressure
they had on offense and yet could convert.
And that is the killings hill, this team.
How do you have so much pressure?
And you do not run the score.
But I could tell you why exactly.
Because when you're rolled above middle,
so see you have this pitch, guys.
I'm in goal.
And somebody's passing the cross.
Usually somebody is usually middle.
Somebody middle.
And the middle.
Reason, that guy's not middle.
He is lined up directly behind the guy making the play half and that ball also it likes not through to the other side
for the easy counter
It's problem yesterday, and they figured it out for now. It's just like I don't understand how it's possible
You know your you know the chances are coming, but you're not there
But listen that's the hero there they can figure it out big big way for a billion who's not a one the group gives
I wanted to see the graphics.
Just a double check here.
Here it is.
Energy tops the group.
Manchester City at number two.
Emerbellion number three.
So energy in Manchester City,
they actually tied in game
differential between tied teams.
So it actually came down to
goal differential because they also,
for the group game differential,
they tied.
So it actually came down to
goal differential.
Manchester City, a very defensive team.
They don't really blow you out a lot.
Energy wins out on those goals
take that spot so we were saying every game matters every goal matters in these
groups at this point in energy they get the benefit of that they get the two
lives now it for a top four spot compared to man city who has to win three
in a row to make it the top four that's the difference it's not even that though
it's also look at that but look at both these teams in a in this man city place
group a third or billion place group a second they beat in our G and you give
rewarded more than likely, but it's a far mind or a foul game.
Yeah, that came down to goals and it came down to goals.
And on the other side of things, on the other side of things,
but he supports will play against NRG.
Justin will play against the organization
he won his world championships with for top four in 2026.
One of those two will be in top four.
Those fans are going to be so confused.
But they're Justin on the other side.
to be happy either way, either way.
It's gonna be a lot of goodness.
My goodness, today just continues to be absolutely electric on both streams.
Folks, the big Oh, they did their absolute best.
It was a good match against Manchester City.
Ultimately, though, they dropped that one three to one and are eliminated
from the Rocking World Championship.
Group C is all finished, folks.
Two groups now locked in.
We only have two more to go.
So we can start to look forward to our other matches here.
general mates and vitality will close out the group D action here in just a
little bit. Let's finish group A and let's find out who is that number two
seed who's gonna be playing it for Bellion who is the number one seed
that'll be playing against Virtus Bro. It's Falcons versus Karmic. Well we made
our tier list there's only two teams in that tier S. We had K Corp and Falcons I
think everyone expects these two to be the tournament favorites to win if they
won the last two big international lands. Now they must battle in the group of
the first place. Yeah, and I
think when you look towards
what they both achieved this
season, they are absolutely on
top of their games coming
called by the very shaky EWC.
They've been very aware of that
little chapter extra at one
point. Yes, not what we wanted.
They got swept three times in
that tournament. Is that the
terrible from them? Falcons on
the other side of things almost
recent LAN winner with
essentially every team here
give or take Falcons and
coming for the two strongest
squads by the analysis desk
now here, clashing in the groups.
and the groups.
Straight back, of course, Paris Major, Atom, in front of the case fans, in front of the media fans.
It's just like we are the best team in the world and we prove to everyone that we can win the World Cup.
Stem management in general, like they are maybe one of the best in the world right now with us and Falcons.
And of course, he has the same champion and dickies. I think he wants to go trippin'.
I think we have the team to change that, of course.
I think we can win worlds by far.
We're stepping off course in the past major already.
I think he's a bit scared of us.
I know that we're a better team.
I think if I'm not a better team than Crystal,
I feel good in the game.
I feel like I'm maybe one of the best of the best team in the world right now.
I feel like I have to win this time for myself.
It's an iconic spot, of course.
the blue wall. I'm yet again
here with extra, you know,
you're coming into this with a
little bit of I think have been
dead probably on you guys from
EWC. We know Falcons swept you
guys think it was it was 4 0.
Yeah, it wasn't not not the best
result for you guys. And then,
of course, the third fourth
place also didn't go well.
Looking at what happened there
and coming into this tournament,
did you think there was a lot of
adjustments that needed to be
made or was it just a little
Or was it just kind of like refocusing?
There was like adjustments to be made, so I wouldn't say a lot to be honest.
I would say like the EWC tournament was not a good tournament for us.
So we had to fix a lot of things to be honest, but it's not like that deep to be honest.
I was going to say, you said not that deep, but did you find it challenging as a coach to work out what that was?
Or you knew the answers right away?
Um, I knew the answers. Yeah. And the more challenging part is like giving it to players.
Yeah, sharing that. What you mean with it? Yeah. Yeah, that must take a while here. But I mean coming into this, you guys are looking pretty good. I mean, the desk had you guys, I think, as that, but the only two teams as like an S tier coming into this, you know, I think with your experience of Falcons.
You probably agree with that then? Yes, I do. Yeah, I think you have to always be yourself at the top. Now looking at this matchup and how prepared you are from day to day.
today was today presenting any challenges.
You know, this morning did a player wake up and you're like,
oh, we got to get you on track.
Well, they are already focused since the end of yesterday's
match, to be honest.
Since they knew we were going to face Falcons in the group,
they are so hyped from day one.
So I don't need to wake them up, to be honest.
They're already locked in.
It was a silly question, because I know these guys are some
of the hardest workers out there in the Rock and the Beast
parks.
We have the revenge to take.
Yeah.
OK, you know, I'm going to let you go walking
on the revenge then, okay?
Good luck in the match, Anthony.
Ha ha ha.
Boston Major was pretty good overall,
almost made the grand final.
We were one goal away,
and then, you know, split two,
we didn't make the major,
so obviously that's like the lowest low
in my entire career.
And then right after that,
we bounced back and won EWC quite easily.
The expression, high and lows,
sums it up perfectly.
As always, we're gonna have to be the best engineer world,
which isn't always easy.
I think this time I'll be even more prepared than I was last time. Last time was my first
LCS LAN victory ever. This time I'm even more used to it and more dangerous than ever.
If I win this one, I'll be one of the three greatest Rocket League players of all time
in terms of achievements. I would mean a lot to see Falcons win this because it's the greatest
this world championship is Falcons 2-in.
Their opponents, the Falcons on the other side, once again I'm hanging out with my best friend.
What is this, like 8,000 interviews we've had now?
10,000.
10,000? I was a little bit short on that.
Yeah, but of course I was just talking to Extra.
For them, this is a bit of a revenge match.
Vendetta, you know that you have a target on your back.
Have you been doing anything extra to build up the armor against KC?
team. They're going to be
ready for this. Now if you
know what team very
specifically is looking at
you guys to be a specific
matchup like this. Do you
guys look at it a little bit
differently? I know most
teams just look at each
match by match. But do you
look at it with a different
lens? It depends from team to
team. The main thing for
the team is that they're
going to be ready for this.
They're going to be ready
for this. Now if you know
what team very specifically
The main thing for me is taking tour basics. Yeah, and see what they got
Yeah, what are the basics you guys? I mean just lots of mechs. I know that
Okay, okay, I was trying to sneak it in after at least one event here now when it comes to the squad in energy levels
Obviously, we knew Jolly was having a little bit of a rough start here
Do you feel like he's kind of back to that that full power or we still level it up as we go for it
The road is bling insane still he's a bit sick, but he's insane locked in
Yeah, I'm
Yeah, exactly. Hey, well, I'm gonna let you go back there with the squad here because Casey's coming after you. Yeah, good luck in your match
Thank you
The strongest squads we've ever seen in the history of the game and they've clashed so many times over the last few years
They sure have these two organizations met in the semifinals in Lyon where Casey dropped the Falcons
The Falcons ended up losing the energy in the finals, but the Falcons made a big change
They went and took Drowley, who was on that KC team that they just beat, they had them
because they won the World Championship, they won the winning WSC.
The first time these two organizations played this year, EWC Falcons swept from 4-0, not
a plan again.
Yeah, I mean, this is the first time that they've been playing at an RLCS this season.
They've only played at EWC otherwise, as you said, a 4-0 after nabbing Drowley from this
team.
GCC has been an incredible step in.
I'm very excited to see how it ends up going as well because Drowley has been an incredible
character.
that he has been feeling a little bit under the weather by all accounts. He's still shooting
around 40%. He's up there. He's on the podium for our shooters here at Worlds.
Yeah, but that was the biggest roster move of the entire offseason. I think everyone
thought that K-Corp squad could have easily won Worlds last year and even this year as
well. But Falcons pick them up and not only do they pick them up, they make K-Corp weaker.
But of course K-Corp came out in Paris, won that major. Seems like they have leveled up.
answer right back with the EWC win. So both teams playing lights out right now.
Exactly. Falcons made the change. And when you WC, the one in the world championship.
That's where you had to draw it. That's where you let the RK go. And in addition to
boss attraction, you technically made KC a worse team. Yeah. On paper, you say
Juicy's not as good as drawler. But this is where the tips all lay now. And to be
fair, when KC won Paris, and I know you can't blame them, Falcons were not there
technically. So Falcons couldn't challenge KC either when they did win.
Now that was because of Falcons.
They didn't do well online, but still Falcons did not have a chance to challenge KC that.
But I mean when when Falcons missed Paris, there's a lot of people really starting to ask the question.
Was this move for trolley the correct move?
Did they mess up preseason?
Did they throw the season before it even began?
That's right.
But they've won the WC.
They're halfway to their goal of winning both of them and they're looking better than ever right now.
Folks, let us know who you think is going to win in the progressive fan.
But we'll make our picks on the desk. Stumpy.
I can see you going either way. Who you got?
I mean, both of them have had quite a similar tournament so far.
They're both three to SSG who also look absolutely fantastic.
They both have played against MIBR, but Casey did drop one game to MIBR,
which Falcons did not.
However, I'm going to have to give it over towards Carmen Corp for myself personally.
I think it's incredibly split down the middle.
It feels like a real coin flip.
So the coin is going to be on it again, I'm sure.
But Carmen Corp to me, they've just felt a little bit more cohesive, I think.
I do feel like both these teams have not leveled back up
to those major win in ways yet.
But I think they will unlock that for one another here.
I think this goes to game five.
I think it'll be incredibly close.
And one of the best matches we've ever seen in Rock League.
I'm going to Alfonso.
I like rematches.
I think you learn a lot from when you lose.
Carmichael beats Falcons right here.
It's right down the middle for me on this one, too.
But I think the difference is going
to be the power of the blue wall.
I've got Carmencourt here as well.
How does the coin feel about it?
Falcons on one side.
Carmencourt on the other.
Into the air and it's going to come up for the Falcons.
There are going to be narrow favorites on the desk.
Do not forget about our alternate stream
to our site TV slash RLE Sports.
We have a clash between Made in Brazil and SSG going down
right now on that side to determine who will be in
and who will be out on the other side of this group.
Folks, it's time for one of the best matches in Rocket League.
Will we see Champions Field?
Will one come out and slap the other in the face?
Time to find out.
Blue on one side, green on the other.
Karmicor versus Falcons for the top seed out of the group.
Well, who will join NRG Foot Esports and Virtus Pro in this year's NA regional at Dickey's Arena
Bars?
Game 1 is brought to you by Progressive and this is also up to be a big one.
Yeah, right.
Win this top of the group.
Win this guaranteed top 6 here at the World Championship and a chance to even make top
4 but also common core.
Looking for revenge from the Esports World Cup.
Falcons dominated them.
Casey looking for a bench.
They did Falcons got six goals in game number one.
Against Casey at the Esports World Cup.
Casey have already performed better against the PlayStation game.
They did there. They were also swept by SSG at this time.
They beat them in game five.
Casey look at a bit more like themselves.
They certainly have some big moments.
Juicy has been playing fantastically but Falcons,
derrally the man who was on the ball there.
He is looking like his world championship self.
is, of course, at the perfect time, right, getting into that form.
But here has been kind of trying to meet that same level as in expectation.
You saw him earlier just again.
Can you step up when your team needs you most?
But here with the double forces out too,
Killers picks this one up quickly.
It's already up to a hot start, especially for
the Grumrykul, they've controlled most of the session.
Crazy pitch to the back corner.
Yeah, that could be on anywhere.
Right above the goal, flashed above the goal line.
It's that high mouth woman there for coming.
Corpus, we're asking someone to the middle.
Kiddus is there.
Wants to get the double, but Tira,
to make sure he could not to leave it, though.
It's risky.
Don't sit above the goal.
It's like a little suspect defending from Casey.
We saw plenty of that against space station gaming.
They're going to have to be stronger and tighter
against Valkyries because look at the way they attack.
Yeah, they definitely make their mark,
or hit their mark, when they do strike.
Oh, good.
Redirect there from Juicy.
Trolley sticks on top of this one,
And we'll get a 50 as the ball goes into midfield.
Pace is being quick to start this one off.
And you saw it, though.
You cannot afford to make any lapses and judgements,
hesitations, anything like that against his fountains team.
They are ready to strike.
Causing our B-street material to be smashed.
RLE Sports does another knockout game.
But this one goes away for Tira, who
opens the scoring for Carmine Gold.
But there's so much time here, able to get the follow-up.
Perfect placement there, into the top left corner, honestly, it was the only place he could shoot.
It was, and he found it.
He calmly caught offensively.
They're looking at themselves, and this is a great comeback for Falcons.
I mean, it's a response, and it hits them, hits them, and it's a response.
Magnetically attracted to the ball.
Look at this kickoff though. Let's kill ourselves first.
You see, drawing a little bit of hesitation there.
Again, the ball goes right to his nose.
They're ready for, he's ready for the follow-up, but a quick response.
If I can say we'll be disgusted by the little tag that you see under that logo right there.
Nina number two, that is not what they were put together to achieve.
Just a mind's been having their struggles.
What the Moon was saying in interviews that might be horrified by the way they're playing,
and they have just about made it through, and they'll be hoping that the knockouts, the playoffs,
starting tomorrow with our crowd.
This is a real hard reset.
I wonder if this one will be skipping that next day to go into that top six.
Exactly because again this tournament needs and flows and you want to make sure you're on your game that extra time that is so much
for all the kids they contact there
So we're still tied in here halfway through this game kills with a free ball. We'll just boom it down field
Falcons trying to pull KC out
Their counter attacks have been so good
That's where a public court look the week is when they have to trail back and play defense
I think Falcons get kind of recognized if they're not necessarily challenging the ball too much.
Goldenfield has killers those days on top of it trying to see if he can force an enter.
They make a dunk there against Karmic.
Korn killers was almost there, almost caught Casey cold defensively again.
And so the dust, the ball in front of the Falcons go along Juicy.
Since out one Majority was waiting, it's a bit too much angle on that one.
So O.S. thought he was there, but instead,
Atto leaves it to the Tiers.
So Casey can cut forwards once more.
the ball killers. Touchdown.
Get past Juicy there.
See which team is really the one that's
making too much possession right now.
It's very into end-to-end.
Yeah, it is into end.
The possession changes have
swapped a lot, but
I think it's about what everyone is doing
with the possession, right?
So people are holding on to the ball.
You're seeing a common court right now.
Just passing the ball in between each other.
Meanwhile for Falcons.
Sometimes it's trying to play quick.
Sometimes it could be a rude.
We saw again just the light and contact
back from Killers, but in life with some space for Drolley, even then though when he's on
the ball, he just throws it towards the net. Nothing much happening, and with time ticking
down, every mistake, every opportunity is going to matter so much more.
Well there's definitely a much better game, one against Falcons that we saw in the Esports
World Cup. True.
Or as I mentioned, they considered those six goals, let's through them.
Stam KC, they give themselves a chance, give themselves a foothold, Juicy gets it above
the goal, it's going to be out of game, the next touch is faked out as well.
against the Falcons to Bender, but quite on target with more control.
What composure from Casey in attack is for Sierra.
On that right wing, Juicy tries to keep the attack going.
Casey looking more likely.
Yeah, you see Karmie Korps keeping the possession close.
Lots of the 50s, low 50s as well.
Just don't want to give a chance for Falcons to turn things around in the air.
They are trying to kick that boos, trying to set up a play.
There's a bump play to a shot right there.
Juicy will now take a follow.
Gil's had it.
Juicy now.
Orders the killers to get away from, look how fast Ato was there!
Batira! Night first touch! Night follow! And a nice goal!
The pump up, Tim out!
But the first touch was all Batira's, he beat Drowley all the extra, actually it was...
The pump who did that.
And then Batira had the quality to get it, and that might be game one sewn up, 21 left.
Falcon's game made something happen off the kickoff, they've done it before.
Drowley with a free win, wraps around Ato, killers get to Tim off.
It's just Juicy now. Can Juicy stop the push?
He can't! Roars connect to a trolley and we're back time!
Well, I did say might and this is why.
Because of the might of Team Vulcans, Charlie Zandreville gets another plate for Roars,
who's never gonna miss.
And this game one is going right now to the wire.
Another kickoff. Oh, that goes to Philip Roars.
Vulcans kill a split shot!
No!
And then I did my right time up with an army cop and this seems an awfully long time ago
late in the lead.
Balkans turn around with two huge kickoff goals and suddenly it's KC chasing.
Every kickoff goal from Balkans.
Well every goal has been a kickoff goal.
It's going to take one more.
Don't tell me they give one up for what?
Sins into the side.
Killers will pick this ball up.
going to follow it all the way through.
I know in front of the car, the gold line,
just a matter of time before it hits the hand.
I don't know if it was.
Takes one for the road.
What?
Turn around there for T Falcons.
A team that is so difficult to beat.
It wasn't Falcons best before.
This wasn't the best individual game that we've seen so far this event.
But still, they had enough.
And the man there, you see at the end of that row,
hearing into the distance.
He was the one who really made the difference.
He got that edgeable going and he was up so quickly, you know,
one of the OGs of turning an edgeable into a shopper,
a teammate, our team Vulcan, especially killers,
and Roulas have been about to welcome that regard.
There was some effect there at the end.
Yeah, it was. I mean, Harvey Corp did, you know, start out.
We're just doing a lot of work to open up the scoring,
but Falcons, it was the kickoff thing.
We're so... the execution was just pristine.
When you look at every play, it was drawn out.
You saw him up there, took the possession.
It was just so hard for Carmen for the guard.
And then he came down to this one.
When they take their shots, my goodness, Paul,
do they hit the mark?
Yeah, it just gets harder and harder to beat Falcons.
You take the lead with what, 20 seconds left?
Maybe even less than you think.
OK, this is going to be our game.
I'm losing by two because they scored three
in the last 10 seconds.
That's wild, right?
That is wild.
And they get twisted minds as well.
Remember, they were three girls up against twisted minds
at East West World Cup.
I mean, someone got back in that one.
Such a good comeback team.
Yeah, and when they get on those runs,
when that momentum shifts in their favor,
it makes it so much more of a force to guard.
It's shockingly impressive that Falcons were
able to get those many, that big amount of kickoff goals
against a team like Karmicorp.
Who was known for the kickoffs?
That's a great point.
Yeah, that's a fantastic point, KC.
They've got one of the biggest repertoire of kickoffs
in all the broccoli e-sports, but they couldn't read
What happens with putting down the next kickoff here in the big temple?
Charlie has another edge of looking dangerous.
That's an interesting miss there.
Gidders is going to be a little bit in trouble here.
I was so communicated early, but definitely wasn't ideal to defend even Falcons.
Yeah.
Now when you see, you know, having a court now, of course, I think for them, they understand,
okay, clean up kickoffs.
Let's go, keep doing what they're doing.
Don't let the momentum shift.
to kind of keep their head back into the game.
Biggest difference maker here because outside of kick-offs,
we haven't seen them score any other way.
So here, in that kind of neutral area,
this is what comes to court to thrive here in this image.
Definitely true.
Another one to battle first to break the deadlock,
the 1-1 deadlock in that first game.
Wasn't enough. They started game 2 well enough though.
Atto is going to get the killers here.
More pressure for Kami.
Korn Halkins trying to decide who comes away with the ball.
It is Rewas in the end.
It's a victory step that isn't going to use it.
It's not usually going to take it out of the car,
meaning call part.
I would say that so far, from the eye test at least,
Casey has started better in game two.
Yeah, I think so.
Controlling the possession, not allowing
fouls, there's too much space in there.
Have this is what you want to see for car report.
All of us get away from him now, 338 on the clock.
Ato, nice light touch, keeping me close.
He's Vatero, crosses into the side,
Raleigh, side wall, skin.
That's Gele, they go straight down.
It's an easy clear for Atto, but the demo on the tier is going to slow down the offensive push off the control on the possession.
Yeah, for the first time in this game, we've got a little bit of sustained Falcons' pressure.
They're making KC shuttle to break through, but that clearance to Atto will do it.
We're about to have to get up early to get something on the ball.
We did it, but KC has to come right back, of course.
Even though this is the best of five, but it seems like a tactical timeout.
So if KC lose this one, you can expect them to take that.
It's so far that if you want it, you need to get that opening goal until he comes kill it.
He wants to get the reset. I don't think he has.
And that's how you clear it to midway.
The PlayStation gave me that 2-0.
It's M-I-V-R.
Meanwhile, most people are trying to stay alive in the group, but these two
fighting to top the group.
Off-way through this one, it's been a stalemate.
Not too many shots allowed.
On the side of Karmicorp, they've been holding Falcons into the orc side.
Falcons have a couple of bergway opportunities,
Nothing too threatening, both teams looking for that extra inch who can, you know, create an error,
who can make the defense uncomfortable and set up a strike.
Just now as well, five games in a row, at least, the Falcons of God gets calm in court.
They get worse, so can Casey stop that roll. And they can likely hear in this game,
and it doesn't matter who will be their friend, as you see, as you get a teammate behind it,
because that's how Sierra helps out on its way, so you can't really see any gold scoring chances
It's going to be a nice touch, it's nice passes from Garmin Corp.
They have to really make the Falcons sweat too much.
Kills might make that the opposite against them.
Send away blind to Tierra.
That's KC on the left foot.
Yeah, you can see both teams having a lot of respect for each other.
Sometimes players go up and sometimes they think that,
okay, I'm not going to make this.
Let me leave that for the other player.
Just, again, no one's really ready to take the full risk just yet.
down that risk. Someone will take it. It just depends. Right now on the court, still looking for a hole where it's a demo and it gets sent to Drawley in.
Do you think they have a chance? Yes! Juicy strikes here with a minute and twenty-seven to go.
I think they might have from Batera on Drawley and the killers. He chased that one. I don't think he needed to dodge that.
I think he just felt his guard. Driven into the ball, they would have been okay, but the dodge leveled him out in the air, so the shot could go straight underneath them.
They want to get the ball back to a neutral state.
This is where they want to be.
They'll have to be clear and strongly underneath it.
They'll have a hundred boots, but the angle to go for it.
Juicy to the ceiling. Juicy.
There's still no 10 speed.
Probably got the best player so far this event.
Absolutely something that's going to be a big hit.
I'm going to go for it.
I'm going to go for it.
I'm going to go for it.
I'm going to go for it.
I'm going to go for it.
I'm going to go for it.
So far this event has been defending now Charlie could have quite connected right out of boost
We want to get a clean spear onto the ball there. I don't come in for to get through aspect the flick doesn't have enough power
Counties can't get upfield
Again
And once again, Falcons equalize!
You see, again, Oh, Atal went for the bumpboard,
but what a nice and booked him, right into the ball.
It's a favorable ball for Jarlie, they'll take it,
and with 32 seconds left, it's in his body's game.
Man, it's a kickoff again by Falcons,
they're being so strong, they win that one again, Reus!
Puts it to the backboard, but so has the Blues.
Jarlie's already down, he can see him,
he's going to follow it up as well.
Improvisation from Jarlie, almost the undoing there
KC in trouble, kickoff yet again, that storyline continue, a killer!
Fakes one down, fakes out a double one!
Is anyone helping him? It's Charlie!
What's going on in the T-Rex Cup?
BOOM! BOOM!
What shoots!
Oh!
Post!
Million!
KC survived for now!
Five seconds left, looking like overtime, unless, no, it is!
Okay, in game two, and Falcons almost up to all in this series!
Let's see if Call Me Quirk can get the equalizer.
It's a much better kick off there from KC.
Gives him a shooting chance at the beginning.
Hacked away there by Jirali.
He has to stay back in the fec.
Going to get it as far as Batir.
And Jirali's up, and it's underneath him.
And there's the Bob Juicy shoots.
Rubats is in the right place.
Who's a little low on the side of Falcans.
More pressure, killers.
Gets there just in time.
Little bit of bumps in the net.
But free ball for Juicy.
Batir, get there.
Trying to drop it down.
No, I got nervous after thousands of time it up.
Oh, I see.
For Comet Corp.
Because look at the timer when the first goal goes in, right?
With something in it 30 seconds, it's been a small kind of game.
No one's really been taking any strong strikes.
And then with 30 seconds left, you make that error.
Then you get into a kickoff situation.
You handle that.
Then you get to another kickoff situation.
This is the only time you've let in goals, really.
your own mistakes and messing up the kickoff.
Otherwise, Karmicorp have been in full control of the series.
So when you get into two kickoff situations back to back,
do get a little work.
Karmicorp though, they were able to clean things up,
they got the job done.
There's a lovely goal at the end as well.
The passing play,
flicking it onto your opponent's backbubble,
you got a teammate waiting for it to send it down,
and Atto beating both defenders to the ball.
So it's a really nicely worked winner there for Karmicorp.
Yeah, and you know, Cole,
I talk about worrying worried for a karmic Corp in that moment, but honestly, I'm worried about Falcons in the series because outside of kickoffs and
Unforced errors on the side of KC. Where are their calls coming from?
Well, it's a fine line when you're up against Falcons of what counts as an unforced error because
They can make the best offenders in the world look a little bit silly with their pace and their guile
But you are right KC could have done more defense to be against than in Falcons
Making the most of some mistakes
In this real ass, trying to bundle through.
Kilos is there, he's going to keep this one followed.
Game three has started well here for Vulcans.
He's yet to make sure they don't concede early.
A little hole for Batira,
he's going to take this into the orange corner.
Raleigh, wanted to stop Atto,
Atto will bring it to the back wall,
but the ball, that's where it's left for the last time.
So this killer will get some room, let's reset.
But Batira should be able to collect it easily, he does.
Now, 50 ball, something common when you play against a Stalker's team expecting to play a lot of 50s.
Works for some teams, SSG, they were able to manage it for the most part, still couldn't close it out.
Crime is going no stranger to this, as the pace of game starts to slow down. Both teams fight for that possession.
SSG who by the way had two a lot in games, but 4-1 down in the third.
Stalker's had half a chance there and can't quite connect to the ball, that's open.
What's it for? What's the slow things down right now?
But Sierra was there underneath that, so they used all of his Goose.
So it would be Falcons be launching another attack until there's a miss there.
Last on the backboard.
Sarge gets a flip for reset. Can we get the dunk? Not quite.
Again, it's either team having too much of the same pressure right now, Ders.
They're taking turns going with these solo plays. I want to see an infield pass.
There it is, but Sierra ready.
The last gets a look. High ball, Aqua from Sierra, but she park the buzz.
That one gets centered, cleared out by Atto.
a field and this is what we're going to start seeing more of. I saw earlier was we're lost.
The 50 ball, wait a second. But here do you get the double here? No, lost out. You see a lot of the 50 ball, but one of the things that's about to be a big difference maker is going to be the ball here.
As another shot comes through, but here able to get a stop. Watch the off ball players here. They're going to drop the defense.
Yeah, Juicy was off with that for a second.
That's a backflip. Quickly.
Killers.
A little bit of boost to get that save.
Is it late? Farming the epic save there is.
Killers off with that from Joralee again.
It's neat and tidy in the end.
To get that pull away,
Klaming Court were just waiting for Falkix to make the error.
They would have been in there.
Killers takes a touch.
Is the boost in front of him? Can he get it?
Yes, he can.
That might help Killers to come back in for the attack.
Brouass.
Poaches it forwards.
Tear are waiting.
waiting, neither team blinking just yet. Killers across today.
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
A sense of self requirement, big goal here for Falcons, finally getting one.
Yeah, the first time that's scored the first goal, right, in a game, I think?
I think they considered it first, both other times.
Let's see how Casey look from behind.
Pretty good actually!
Oh!
He saved that, Kennes!
He's all in one two, Anthony!
Double Batira?
No, can't make contact.
That's a jump for that.
Juicy, last back here for a moment.
Chance here for Falcons up five, pressure.
Juicy, look at the timing bomb.
Killers will face the initial challenge.
What's to bring us up the wall?
What will we do with it?
Like such looking for a 50 want to pull someone out. You never a lot of moves to work with draw shot very center
But what's not the best fire? You just got to keep this in you can flip reset to get past one draw
You're trying to set the double for material. He's gonna be on the back for that every time
They can pressure here for falters material is coming forward for tears
But no, there's no one who doesn't need to, because Adonis was underneath and they threatened that play earlier, and this time Adonis six in.
There it is, but here with the carry, Adonis creating space by threatening the bump, and then follows up from pitch the ball right with Varty.
What a duo, what a goal, we're back time.
Yeah, when Casey are at their best, they do that over and over, the air to go into the pass is so effective for them, it's one of them championships.
This time it's a pre-jump play!
Metir into the corner!
KC!
Slammy against the door!
Falcon's just about holding out!
Hell, they use their own backbats to rerun his killers,
but it falls through us in the corner.
Can we watch Parade with this?
Metir, look at him.
Just waiting. What are you gonna do?
Get some of the ball, Metir sets play, get close.
Killers! Oh, we didn't have a lot of boos?
This is gonna be possession of Juicy.
Juicy, nice 50 pass, one.
He starts to look at the boos' toes from both teams.
Hit their pass to Fonzie, takes his time.
He doesn't see a one.
But he gets it over Bob!
Oh, no!
No!
Don't want me to go!
The team bump!
Unbelievable luck for Carmine.
They're gonna have to get out of that fight
as soon as possible.
There's still 55 seconds left to play,
and Charlie's gonna forward zero us.
Falcons living a charmed life, keeping it 1-1.
Still, class patrol for possession in the midfield.
Free ball, Charlie.
Gets the dunk.
Not enough though, but here it gets them
before he gets demoed.
Oh, floating in the midfield! There's the back pass!
Killers can't get the boost!
Dragon will take control!
Roulas...
Takes a touch 30 left now.
KC...
They will feel they already should have scored here.
They could have scored here and over.
Tira's getting in Juicy's way again!
That has been happening the entire tournament!
Nisu needs to stop getting in each other's way!
Oh, that's a big ball!
It's in high!
Roulasen's all the way down to Juicy's never-meaning.
Juicy off the ceiling! Jumping!
Oh, it's in!
Big juice makes a splash!
And it's a refreshing tonic for Carmine.
Go up, look at the quality of Juicy.
You give him a little bit of space and a bit, but Lee,
we've seen this script before,
that's 10 seconds and a kickoff and a dream for the Falkens.
Pop up, not the best ball for Owas,
but both the Twins full on boosts.
Owas the Killers, Killers off the corner.
Asso collects, Asso just needs to crowd
And he grounded! Falcons! Keep this one up!
But Tierra, straight down? No!
Collective by Brawley!
Brawley taking his time!
Brawley gets challenged infallably!
Atom looking to ground this one and he will!
Karmicorps put the series on match point!
And I love that as well. It would be so easy to tell after a couple of key moments in that game.
Number one, they're about to score and then somehow an own bump comes in after a bump.
I'm not sure what happened.
Pinball or something.
Number two, Juicy and Vatira, they've been doing this throughout this, whatever I've casted coming up in this event, I've seen Vatira and Juicy not coming quickly enough against each other, right?
They happened again there, but they got over it. They carried on going, and then the goal they scored from Juicy of all players, who to me has been Casey's best player this event, what a player, and then, look at the scoreboard, and consistently speaking, Vatira is the best, 700 points.
Lot of points
And sometimes that consistency can keep you in the game having a player like vatira able to get those stops
I think it's six days incredible
But then of course when it comes to the world championship
You need you need to everyone to be able to strike when you get an opportunity like this
Juicy off the CLA what a catch and what a release
Time out take it from team Falcons. Yeah, they immediately cool it
And they're gonna have to talk things through for an extra 60 seconds
It was all looking so good for them after that first game. They stole it from calming corp
They took the lead in the third one as well
I asked how Casey would be from behind it apparently not that bad because they're able to claim that one in regulation
And this time after getting the lead late they were able to hold out. I do just want to see and I'm talking about the future here
For coming from talk about the rest of this event
I do just want to see a little bit more trust between them all defensively
Yeah, it's been plaguing them and it's gonna get them in trouble really especially against a team like the Falcons or later on when the
best of sevens come in
That is true on the other side
You look at Falcons and you can see the sense of frustration because again, it's still just a lack of
really really offensive pressure leading to goals from them and
Even though they're able to you know push teams to the brink a team that has a good defense like climbing corp
I mean, it makes it so hard to score.
Falcons also know for their defense,
so they do the same thing the other way around.
But they really have to put on a large amount of firepower
that we haven't seen from them this year.
I just feel like, despite it being as close as it is,
Carmel Corp has been in control of most of these games.
Now, you are correct.
I look forward to seeing all the analysis
once the replays are well and truly saved of...
What's been happening here has been brilliant.
Carmel Corp defenders and team Falcons
just slightly more blunted than usual.
But wherever it's happening,
Falcons need to get a couple of games in a row.
And KC have their own tactical turnout in their back pockets.
And maybe they have the lead here in this fourth game.
It was well saved by Falcons.
KC are now dealing with the...
Oh, Falcons' threats from Kip.
And that's so awkward.
Killers has to get behind them.
Right, and he goes!
But the post saves them.
They're choosing shoes wide.
And Falcons can't be behind, but they're not.
And they're still not.
This has been talked about for a long time, is where Wasp normally is.
What will happen next?
This is starting to get unpredictable.
Trolley took a Wasp? No, blocked away.
He just has this one in the corner, can he snap over?
He tries to hit it past that, so he can't do it.
It's a big play from Ato.
I'm going to press it, defending there from the front from the car,
meaning for Belgium.
He was just waiting on the back line.
Just gets a dunk as well.
I like that from Falcons right now.
They're trying to use a bit more regression against Kalmingor.
Maybe they've realized that in a time they're not going to be quite as good as we expect from them.
Well, we're in another case here, keeping them pinned.
The last nice light touch wants to follow it, guys.
It's off the corner. Killers great speed.
The Matera, the Atal, Atal off the ceiling won't be able to follow this ball.
So instead, it will go to the last you will collect.
Carey's just went into the midfield.
Molly turns off for this, let's kill us take it instead.
And Falcons a little bit more spaced out here.
Everyone's scared to be saved and dust.
Juicy was always in that zone.
Tries to complete the job.
Those are the double gets, the double,
but it's above the crossbar.
You don't put your house on him scoring from there,
but he hasn't.
And this confuses me more because
why did Falcons invite this?
They definitely kept that to the ball a lot faster.
Chose to bring Carby Corfinne
and now look at this current situation.
They're stuck on their own half, they're holding on for now, but it just feels like it's almost
just a matter of time before Casey get on the board.
They try to take that time, but maybe, and I'm basically saying it's about the Falcons,
maybe doing it too much.
Casey again tries to launch another attack, but Drowley is that gets it behind him, he
wasn't expecting it.
It's almost genius, but it's said it was awful, the demo comes in as well from Juicy, who's
had another great series, tear into the corner, it goes long, Atto's already there waiting,
Juicy's there, what the PC!
Nice play, Juicy, I've got so much faith here!
And that's it, get the pop-up!
In the bump, Juicy follows it and dodges it!
Just the right time to get the pressure on the ball!
And the sink to go!
Now, carry court up by one!
As we hit that half-way mark.
Yeah, that's us beginning to tell it to the difference maker this one.
Kruaslo.
On the backboard almost dunks hugely,
but Kruaslo is in the lead.
Backboard almost dunks hugely, but Killers gets it forwards.
Drowley's landing, doesn't go for it.
Juicy takes out another player.
These demos at the ball have been huge right now for Connick,
over for Juicy in particular.
Two and a half minutes for Falkens.
Keep themselves in the under bracket.
Guarantee themselves top six.
To get the all-important layoff.
Juicy gets into the corner.
That side, Batir is almost there.
The RUAC should be able to complete the job.
Connick or Parmeeting fouls into the ball every single time.
Oh, that's awkward.
Juicy, follow up high.
Batir free, then he gets a backboard for free,
But he's going to get the first touch.
Atto defiles on for the double!
AHHHHHHHHH!
AHHHHH!
Atto secures it!
He missed one earlier.
And he wasn't going to miss this one.
He almost did it all, Charlie.
He just didn't have the reflex in his confident line.
He was brave for all four wheels to touch the ground
so he could bounce off and send that ball away.
It didn't happen.
Valkyrie's out to chase through there.
Plong this kick off the hook.
Charlie's there.
Atto stops.
He threw us, sends it forward.
How's this going to pull this Vatira?
How's the really does?
And he puts it to safety to fix the quality there from Vatira.
Absolutely.
You could come to expect that from Vatira.
Anybody else?
You're a little concerned for Vatira.
You still just know you can do it.
No matter what, keeping this four line at 2-0.
Charlie forwards.
He's been completely popped out in this game by Carmen Corp.
They're not giving him a sniff.
Charlie has it in the corner, but it's only as far as juicy.
It's a poor touch again from Joralee.
Starting to get frustrated, starting to get shaky.
I'm not used to losing at the moment,
because I've won so many series in a row,
starting back at Esports World Cup.
Now they're maybe about to taste defeat.
Yeah, but till that clock hits zero,
back ends, still in it.
Carbicorp half has cured this game.
Can Juicy do it here?
The double almost went through,
the killers players into the side.
Carbicorp, keeping up the pressure.
Nice, nice, double off the wall there, but still not enough to set up a shot.
Final minute here, Valken need to go, but they're looking awkward.
Droll can get a first touch there, left it for Killers.
He'll get a pass one.
Can he get a pass two?
No, Juicy, seems to the side wall, went for the pinch,
for lost trying to keep it in.
45 left now, the KC they just have to hold out on,
maybe make it even better, until it goes for the musty from the floor.
Delay this flick as well, and thanks so much, Chaos.
Vateric is sick, can he shoot if something happens on top of him?
Vateric is so good for Vatero's sake!
It's a possible knock! Look at the roll!
For the talisman in Frenchman!
Vateric is locked, and then he gives a little laugh as well.
Carmichord!
Take control of this game!
Take control of the series!
30 seconds left, up by 3!
And they're trying to hold on as Falcons are going to give it everything they got!
What a block for Valkyrie!
Yeah, that's probably it. If that goes in,
they're still getting nervous.
And Batira, another huge save, and he has to blast this time.
It's over.
And I gotta say, the assist that he got for the third goal,
I thought he could have scored, but the defender was in his face.
He did well to avoid him.
That is still fantastic as well.
KC, how good will this field as the team
that knocked them out of the eSports World Cup.
They couldn't even get a game against them in the best of seven.
And now they have destroyed them here in game four
to put themselves in that top six.
In amongst the NA pigeons, these cats
are proving to have nine lives.
Can't mean call.
They finished up with their group.
We'll see you soon.
The Blue Wall stands tall.
That's what I get loud boys.
Wow, what a finish here in this group.
I mean, you look at Falcons, SSG, MIBR,
you saw the level of competition that this group had
with that company corp was in.
There were so many questions on where everyone
was playing SSG finalists and EWC Falcons, EWC winners,
and then again Falcons run being a big point in all of this.
all of this. Now we're waiting for the group to close and again it's still just as electric.
Definitely yeah, Daz and I have got our eyes caught on the ultimate stream right now where SSG
are five minutes into an overtime against Made in Brazil. But for now all that matters is that the
winners of this one, the winners of your group Daz, calming pop and what a way to do it against
Falcons. Yeah, what a way to do it. I mean, so well done for
Carmi Court controlling the series. Poppins gave their best
counterpunches. A Carmi Court adjusted so well. But Tira and
Ato were electric. But this guy here, story, we got him. Whitley,
standing by. Redemption has been completed here for KC Juicy. This
This must mean a lot you guys, to prove that what happened at EWC was a fluke.
Yeah, yeah, I mean, EWC was like both games obviously we lost like 7-0 in the 2 games.
Yeah, it was bad, it was really bad.
But we bounced up and just pretty good now, so I'm happy.
That's awesome.
Yeah, Extra was saying that he knew what needed to be changed, he just had to get that, what
he wanted to change to you guys, did you find it easy to execute on what Extra was trying
to tell you guys to change or was it a little bit difficult to get to this point?
I mean a lot of hard work obviously. I mean after a WC we just like reset and just played
again our game and replay reviews what went wrong, what went right and just redo it from
here. Yeah well if I'm not mistaken here you guys will be playing Virtus.Pro in the bracket
here. How do you feel about those three North American teams in the upper bracket? Are you
exciting or scary? I don't know actually it's just like I don't know how they play especially
like Virtus.pro. I think energy or Shopify top their group. Yes yeah energy did. Okay so it was like
energy is normal you know but the Virtus.pro I didn't expect them out of no one. Yeah yeah yeah.
And foot's the other team? I don't foot. Foot? Yeah just a scene. Oh true. Right? Yeah yeah yeah
But, yeah, I'm hyped to see how they play and how we should play against them, so...
Now, are you guys going to look to, like, when you're looking for those teams, do you try to avoid scrims with those teams?
Or do you try to get scrims? Do you try to avoid it?
Yeah, obviously, I mean...
They can get data on us.
Yeah, that's true.
We can get data on them, I would say.
Yeah, but it's just like, you know...
Kind of spoils the moment, right?
Yeah, obviously.
Yeah, I'm assuming, though, you guys will be looking at the tape, like looking at replays and stuff,
Or do you try to even avoid that?
Or is that like all extras?
Uh, I'm not going to say much.
Ah, fair enough, fair enough.
I'll give you that.
But anyways, I got to say, this must be a really good moment
for you.
Is there a new goal set for you now that you've proven
that you can shut down the teams that beat you at EWC?
Make it to top four.
Oh, top four?
OK, good.
And then just win.
Then the trophy.
Yeah, that's it.
Game per game, you know?
Don't just like.
Someone overthink it.
Yeah.
I love it.
Hey, well congratulations on getting the redemption there juicy and it's fun to watch and I can't wait to watch more of your gameplay
Thank you, and it's a lot more gameplay to go
But of course only one more round here in the preview three then we head on to the 2v2 stay tuned
I want to try and experiment all right to help you unbecome your parents I want you to try a game called Rocket League
Oh, is it a puzzle like my crossword? No picture soccer, okay with a car
What do I hang my feet outside the window? No, not your car, but you said think it's a video game. Oh, okay
I get it. Where's the cartridge? No, it's an online thing. Is there a joystick not like the ones you're thinking
But I need to get some quarters, right?
No.
I got to blow in the cartridge.
Again, like no cartridge, but you'll need a username.
Username, huh?
How about Keith underscore 9-9-1-4?
The bathroom coat?
That's the only number I can kind of remember easily, so.

I
I have a million reasons to leave you, but I have a million reasons to keep you.
I
And I don't have expectations
But when the day to eat my food's asleep
And our hands melt
The Titans clash, the dust has settled and the blue wall have secured the top seed out
of group A Falcons.
Falcons will have to settle for seconds for just for now, but still such a formidable force.
Oh, an absolutely huge win too. We'll talk about their road later when we see the playoff bracket for K-Corp.
They have two lives for a top four chance here, taking down Falcons who the last time they met they lost four to zero.
So hats off to K-Corp trying to repeat as major champion to that world champion.
You're looking at 3-0, I'd say as well.
I know that's that doesn't mean properly.
But the game one, they conceded two kickoff goals
direct from the kickoff, just based on the tension
in the back of the net.
So you take those out of the equation,
they win that game, they're lost by a goal,
and they look like the better team for the whole series.
They sure do.
And listen, you learn things when you lose.
The KC, they went and looked at the tape,
how did we lose against Foulness?
We weren't playing as good as we should have.
Had a month in between that match to the now,
made all the difference, had made all the difference,
and now Batira, big match.
Top six already guaranteed.
Yeah.
And now it's time for the Falcons to do the same.
Learned from that loss there on the back foot.
Yet again, they were in the planes.
They battled through that.
Now they're going to be in that lower bracket on Friday.
And they're going to have to make a historic run when
five in a row to win the world championship.
And it's only it.
They had to play in the play-in as well.
They had the longest road already.
It only makes sense that they would continue to make sure
they played the longest road here at the 20-20-21 championship.
But taking us back, goals going in both ways.
And the Tiro extended it there in game number one.
But again, those kickoff goals,
these are starting.
I mean, kickoff goals gave Falcons a chance.
That's really what it was, because honestly,
looking at the stats, Falcons offense,
a team that you know so much gives.
You have 25 shots in four games.
KC, 42.
Yeah.
They dominated the series for sure.
I was on the kickoff, which is rare.
KC is normally a very good team on kickoffs,
but it was still close and still had some over times.
So Falcons were battling, but they weren't just slightly off,
it felt like.
Yeah, they needed that series as well.
Okay, see that was a strong win over MIBO yesterday, but I just need to see them against Falcons that rematch as you mentioned the sweep of the eSports World Cup didn't look like the blue wall we know and love, but they are back in business.
Extraction speaking to him last night games, they said, well, other teams, BDS have done it. It's one of an inter worlds. They took it as a positive.
And to be fair, we say it could have been the 3-0. It also could have been the 3-0 for the Falcons. They win Game 1, those Game 2 and Game 3, one was an overtime, one was a goal with 10 on the clock, I believe.
Falcons were close until that Dominic came for Casey and I love this graphic too because it really shows
Just how it should be when you really dominated an offense eight more office of demos
Casey had 17 more demos in general in the series 40% of time to defend and I mean 60% of time
They're often that was basically similar stats today. I'll just shop by series
But the difference is you know, she's not going to ball Casey's getting the job done
They do get the job done that does why wrap up group A for us
We did not get to see any of it here on the mainstream, but on the alternate stream they had made in Brazil versus space station
It was a battle game for when five minutes of overtime, but ultimately
Zach reveal the game over there put it through
They are the number three seed and made in Brazil is eliminated from the 2026 rocket league world championships
Yeah, it's a station that began to know up in that the main in Brazil were fighting back
And honestly if that over time goes to main in Brazil, who knows what could have happened there
but here is the bracket that K-Corp gets.
They get Virtus.Pro, three of rookies
in front of a crowd at the least.
That should be a heavy and favored matchup for K-Corp
to win that, and then they're on to the top four
where they're two matches away from winning the whole thing,
while Falcons played Rebellion first,
a very difficult matchup, and then obviously,
they have to win five matches in a row to win this whole thing.
Well, Falcons don't just play Rebellion,
they also play the winner of the match right behind us.
Well, eventually it falcons beating him.
In round two.
What about North America, though?
Three in the top six guaranteed.
You've got NRG losing against Rebellion,
then getting foot to make that four.
We're going to get potentially NRG on one side.
Casey on the other side in the semi-final way.
That's cinema.
That is cinema.
I love it.
I love it.
We got some orange versus blue quintessential rock league
up there with climbing core versus Virtus.
Pro.
And hey, if things go the way you're describing it.
It's a second orange versus blue there with climbing
core versus NRG.
So you know, they could just continue to come on.
But I do agree.
I said, Vertus Pro, if you win that match,
I'll predict you until you lose the tournament.
Instantly, they're going to have to make me prove it there.
Because Jeremy Corbyn, that's like my goodness,
this is my tournament winner in the most favorable match
of rookies in front of a crowd.
You want to battle that.
That's where the North America fans are going
to have to get behind Vertus Pro to give them a shot.
Because they will be nervous.
But if the fans back them, you never know.
Who knows?
Who knows what will happen, folks?
Here is the alternate stream scheduler,
as I believe just one more match to go down there.
wild card will be taken on vertus pro a honor of getting to play the game on the biggest stage
a bit of a celebration for vp as well but i want to say for wildcards also hasn't scored a goal yet
at this world championship so from the two games he wants to get one on the board like i'm interested
just to see what topers he's wearing because i assume wildcards are gonna come out with some fun
cars they know it's over have some fun with it and if there's any teams you have fun in rock league
it's always wild oh yeah they'll have a great time hopefully they enjoy playing the video game here on
The mainstream gentlemates about to take on team vitality before we get our 2v2 action started. So let's start talking about these two top European squads in the middle of group D trying to differentiate themselves here. One will be in second, one will be in third.
That's all that's on the line.
I mean, looking at these groups early on, you would expect this gentleman team by tiny matchup to be deciding who gets one in the group.
So now these two teams are playing for second and third and it's kind of unexpected gifts.
Yeah, it feels like both teams came out just a little bit flat and VP with that hot play
and performance were able to take them both down.
So now they got to worry about two and three.
Honestly, I don't think they care who they play going into Friday.
They care about their performance here to get ready for that match.
They're just going in from Broadness 98 to 100.
White Fox.
He's got it locked in there.
And the Boston Major champions here now at the Worlds looking for a second title.
I think the season has been really good so far.
I think we've won some regionals, we've won a Major.
I mean the past Major, I think in the group stage it was pretty good.
We didn't lose a single game, but then when we started playing from the crowd,
it started crumbling a bit. I mean it happened, but it was pretty cool.
It was probably the biggest line-up.
We're feeling prepared. I think we still have some things to work on, but I think when the tournament is still going on, I think we will keep improving and I think we're doing a good job.
I mean, I think we can just come in with the same mindset as we did. I think in the beginning of all the tournaments, I think we'll be fine.
Playing Worlds is always an achievement. I think qualifying for it every time is a really big thing. I mean, I always try to play my best and be my best.
I think we're just preparing the same way we prepare for the majors. I don't think it's like a different tournament
I think we should just do the same things we did at a major and
The one thing we want to prove is that gentlemen's is the best team of the season
Once again hanging out here with snasky who's longing for his chair back there again
He's like give me back there
But you got to hang with me for a moment because I got to I got to pick your brain on what's coming up here
Obviously you guys are fighting for your seed against vitality here. We looked at we were talking about where that would place you in the bracket
Where would you rather be in that bracket? I mean, I feel like both have their ups and downs
Yeah, I mean for us it doesn't matter that much whether we we go down again and has to play against twist of mind
And then like fury into like a falcon. I think it's equally hard
So yeah, we're just trying to get some experience and find our groove in this game
Yeah, at this point, it's really, if you want to win, you got to win, because it's just going to get harder from here on out.
Yeah, exactly. Like, no matter what, the loser bracket is going to be incredibly difficult.
So we're just going to try and find a bit of a form here and, you know, push through that.
Have you been looking at Vitality and their performance so far about just how they've been playing?
What do you think about Vitality so far at Worlds?
I mean, to be honest, not really. I think VP has shocked everybody in this group.
Yeah, that's the stuff.
You know, they came out swinging they, you know, I'll say they play a bit of a round ball, but you know, whatever works works
Yeah, hey right now. What what kind of ball you guys playing here right now?
Cuz I mean is it just kind of just whatever happens you just
Free a free play out there. You got the players that can do that
No, like we went back after the VP game and we kind of spoke about some things and we're trying to find back into
to our form slowly, but we're trying to time it in a way that makes sense for the tournament.
So hopefully we find it.
You don't want to peak early, right?
Exactly.
You can peak later.
Yeah, you want to use all the good shots and so on later on in the tournament.
That's what it is.
Okay, well hopefully you can chill for now and peak later.
All right.
Good luck on the match, Nasky.
Thank you so much.
I think we learned from our brand from the beginning of the season.
We tried to integrate everyone in the team.
I think we took some time before starting to work together.
We learned how the others worked.
It helped us to work better and train better.
Now we're in the top three of my team.
I'm a little bit of a pro, but I'm still a world champion.
When I'm still in my early 15s, it would be exceptional.
And also for the club that is Vitality, which is exceptional too, it would be great.
What I want to prove in these words is that we're going to win and show that we're the best team in the world.
a straight up question, what are the vibes been like for Vitality so far?
Better than yesterday.
Yeah, fair enough.
No, no, it's a good day, we have experience, we failed, but then we know to bounce back
and the first match was good, so we just want to keep it going.
Yeah, I was going to say on that match against Wildcat there, you guys were looking for probably
a dominating performance, that feels like a team you guys should be, and it was a perfect
sweep, which is a great way to get into this match, but obviously this should be a little
bit harder.
Are you getting your players ready for that?
How do you approach them when matches swing like that so differently?
I think just we know that we enter the tournament right now, we know that we can play the way
we want to play, and we are really used to them, we scream them all the time, there are
no regions, so we know to play against them and we think it's going to go good.
I'm curious if you have the same philosophy as Nasky, you were saying we don't want to
peak too early, we want to slowly get into it.
How about you guys, do you want to do that or would you rather just be full swing from
the get go?
I think the whole season we always needed to start a tournament.
Every time the server was a bit shaky.
So if we can get a good win and get confident, we take it.
That is something to keep in mind too.
You have a lot of time to get in a swing and making sure the players are aware that if you have a rough start,
you can still win the entire tournament.
And I'm assuming you've done a good job of making sure they're aware of that.
Yeah, obviously. It's not because you have a couple more steps that you can't win the tournament.
He's just one match at the time and if you manage to be better than the opponent, you just win, that's it.
There it is. Well, hopefully you're better than your opponent right now and you just win.
Thanks so much for having me.
We'll see you later.
A regional contest has been played five times this season. Vitality holds the edge three to two. Very, very close.
To be fair, one of those wins was in the top 32 Swiss, so I don't know how much you credit that one to Vitality.
And one of those wins for Mates was at the Boston Major.
the most important one in the grand finals.
Exactly.
So like I would say it's pretty even across the board.
We'll see who comes out on top.
I think in terms of form right now, it's 50-50.
It really comes out to me like exotic.
Is he playing well or not?
It's hard to tell because obviously they played
Wildcard earlier.
That's an expected win.
He played well there.
Yesterday, he looked rough at time.
So if he's playing well, that's when
Vitality is one of those things that can make a grand final.
It's hard to rate formal well.
You saw it in the playing stage.
You saw it yesterday as well.
and even the heads of head record energy shopper fire. We saw that go the other way as well.
So I'm not reading too much into the vitality up a hand here. I think general mates are just
the better team to be honest in this one and I'm still juries out on vitality. They're a bit wild
card. I think they've just got three better players. I think that vitality are relying
incredibly heavily on that man Zen to get the job done. And I think general mates could expose that.
I'm still not convinced on vitality. They're perfect so wild card but the boys are looking pretty
You have three better players in total or three individual better players who are individually better than all three other players?
That's fine, he's the best player in the whole thing.
Two, three, and four are all on gentlemen mates. That's what's going to...
It's three-day-three.
Yeah.
Chad, let us know who you think is going to win, T-Bates. I mean, the mates do have maybe a slightly better roster of results so far at this event.
Despite the fact that they're both one and one, they both 3-0ed Wildcard by Tauly to get that done in a perfect sweep.
Vitality, though, didn't take it to game five.
I mean, we're kind of like splitting hairs, maybe, here
on one game, if we're just looking at the way things
have gone in the groups.
But the eye test between Vitality and Gentlemates.
You feel like Gentlemates has the edge?
I mean, I think I do.
I think Gentlemates are trying to throw in goals away against VP
a lot.
Even in game number one, how Gentlemates lost game one
is that they all trouble committed
and waited for the ball all the way back down the field.
But to be fair, though, then Vitality against VP
We're also gonna throw in some goals and come on goals right here and there so I can't really say which teams are better for one
They both look a little shaky. I do am interested who just isn't proof
Cameron yes
Friends with a lot of board at the station. Absolutely. I called to leave failure so we can do
I gave it away already, I think general mates are gonna be too good
I'm not expecting this to be closed either. Honestly, I'm very confident. Gentleman's really there for I think this goes five
In the classic vitality fashion they'll win two of those games one to zero
The three wins for mates will be by four goals each. Yeah, I got you know, I got you know, I'm a swell
Interesting. Okay. He's got gentle mates got two major. All right. Well, listen, just make it even
I'm not going to make give me Zen give me Zee and I think you might have a special
I think it's not he has a better series this time around
That's that. That's fair. You talked about Stizzy at all. This one time.
Turn it. Stizzy, go do something. I think I'm going to join you on that. I think that
weirdly, I think that the perfect sweep on wild card was the reset they needed here.
I think that that will help them kind of get more ground and remember just how to move
on the pitch. Remember how to play this is day two. I don't think that we're going to
see the same sort of jitter. So I have vitality here. We got the coin on one side and on the
other end of the air and it comes up for the mates. Narrow favorites on the desk.
has spoken. You think it's a good use of game five. Well, it's classic. But they always
play people close with them. They just get blown out in individual games. I don't know
why this happens, but it's happened a lot.
I think that went gentlemen. The other was vitality, but there were three, three down
the line. Such a close one there. Focus. Thanks so much for watching. We got one more match
of 3v3 here on the mainstream. Don't forget about the alternate stream. They have a match
happening as well. Celebrating this fantastic game vitality on one side makes on the other.
They've played each other so many times this season, but this one, this one is at Worlds.
Gentlemen, versus Vitality, close out.
At the sixth time of asking, these two teams, the behemoths of Europe, playing at the World
Championship.
Einstein be joined by the illustrious Stacks.
In game one, my friends, it is as ever brought to you by Progressive.
Here we go, a matchup that you would look at on paper and think,
OK, this is everything in the world.
It is kind of a tune-up for both of these squads,
but I think still a really good litmus test
for both the gentlemen's and vitality,
and of course, the teams that they good face.
Tomorrow in front of the crowd, we'll
have a vested interest in watching out this one on points.
And historically, you've got a really exciting matchup
at these teams, of course, having their time in the sudden.
Europe and internationally.
Gentlemates, most recently in the Boston Major.
They're taking that one down and first goal is really
going to go the way it makes, but off the crossbar,
working for the Bs.
Much has been made of the form that all the players
individually in this match are in.
Stuffy, is this what's going on?
You happen to, well maybe this could change.
Stizzy will put one in.
Look at Jan in a moment as Stizzy adds the first talent for a team by talent.
Lovely challenge from Jan, just sets it past one, sets his eyes on me,
and the ball came off straight into the path of the Moroccan,
and Stizzy was struggling to miss from there.
No match to change the answer, the question is about Jan.
Okay, of these players as the fewest goals in the tournament.
I would guess Exotic to be honest, I'm not saying Exotic out of these guys.
Well, he did not score yesterday, but he added four against Wildner. No, it's Nass!
The viewers' goals in the 3v3 portion, of course, of this tournament comes in with just the three goals.
Three assists, all of those assists actually in their match earlier today with Virtus.pro.
Interesting, OK, well, Charles said for Nass to maybe tear himself on a little bit more offensively.
looked obviously incredible against Diaz yesterday and the 1v1s.
After the series, ladies and gentlemen, 2v2s is going to be taking place
and Zen will be playing in them,
seeming that with Kalmyn calls that out.
A little bit later on against the SSG boys.
Archie will trigger the counter attack with Oskie already downfield.
Triggered the shot, but it was just a little bit wide anyways on the near side.
And Stizzy just arms another one downfield.
He'll go, gets changed himself.
That's now Zen going head-hunting,
chasing Nass into the net.
And it has vitality to keep the pressure on.
Archie there rotating in position for the save
and a powerful clearance out to Oskie.
And Pavel Clare will you off.
You're going to get on the other end of it as Maas does,
but can't secure his fourth goal of league.
He said that would be Oskie hits chance.
Now ground pitch below, save by Exotic,
The pressure becomes a little bit too much and the mates do draw things level
Oscar nearly forces this through exotic and then Archie the janitor the only player left in the tournament without an assist
He's got six goals to his credit
More than carrying his way around here is Archie
And he's got gentle mates right back in the game one
The ball just drops elegantly in front of the six yard box.
Nath has the opportunity to get the 50 to shot completely blocked by Zend's body.
I think Mike Tell the cast is very split on this series as to which way it's going to go.
Need a team registering as an underdog.
I can imagine if you ask anybody what you would expect out of this matchup,
you'd think it's going to be a good matchup,
and you'd think it's going to be a good matchup,
and you'd think it's going to be a good matchup,
to ask anybody what you would expect out of this matchup.
Present form excluded because again,
you know, Vitality still have a lot of questions to answer.
Yeah, they would be split down the middle.
Two teams that have historically been right at the top
in this so-called battle for France.
Of course, there is also the big bad of the group.
Firming for the blue wall standing tall in their group
As Nass challenges this, hits to the back wall,
Oskis Flummer is set away by Zed.
And the difference between these two
for the Battle of France and Carmen Corp.
The third is that Carmen Corp have made it through
in the first seed in their group.
Neither of these teams will be able to
versus Pro.
We're already solving those honors.
This is gonna be a battle for the second and third.
And both these teams shut out three times each
by Virtus Pro, just an unprecedented run.
And any world championship, they have nine shutouts as a team,
DuVernay's pro, apparently playing on the old stream.
And by the way, they're playing wildcard.
He's got perfect swept by this very vitality squad.
And do wonder if that's going to be in the perfect suite.
I'll keep an eye on that one.
But with under a minute remaining,
he's Disney trying to sneak it from the archie.
Are they able to obfuscate Central?
And he can trickle it into the bottom left corner.
And the 50 goes absolutely perfectly.
Get in the way.
That's about time Archie got an assist.
Well done.
Late to the party, but he showed up
with a little blue-care flowers for Oskie.
It couldn't have been any more perfect.
Right, right, into Oskie's lap.
He's up now for this ball.
Stizzy on his way back.
Will dish it over to Zen.
Vitality by himself trailing out.
Inside, 40 seconds left.
Archie gonna take his time. Exotic there as the second line of defense and now
Exotic's gonna cycle around on this ball down inside 30 seconds. Archie looking
for one more but nobody else is targeting forward now for 10 minutes. They're gonna be content to stay back and make Vitality come to that.
My talent needs to come to them. Exotic pumps it long, only finds Nats and nobody really
challenging him and Vitality overall pretty low on boost if he dives in with
his scant amount. One miss then a team pinch, Marcianowski clears as far as in and we need
to see a miracle here. Who better than a miracle maker himself? There's no contact that will
be convincing enough to get it towards the sidewall can be made. And that is game one
on the way of gentlemen.
So after team vitality, perfect sweep, wild part to secure their spot into the playoff
frackers they find themselves looking up at their french rivals french in
air quotes in gentle maids hey they play in paris that's good enough they do they
do close enough french by proxy as we look back at how the story of game one
unfolded it was dizzy getting the first strike but then Archie and oski combined
for all the offense and Channel makes come from behind to get the first back on the board.
As you said, both teams currently vying for that second place ideally.
Well, third place really, because the second place is a little bit easier.
You also then don't run into Falcons immediately after you then hopefully win your series,
but as Nasky said in that pregame interview, there's a lot. It's the whole championship.
Every route through is going to be tough if you go through in second or third.
Didn't me ever told you their neck hurts when they look up at you?
I normally say to that brain husband they talk to me.
That's fair, same.
Game two now, at Forbidden Temple.
As Vitality looked to bounce back against Gentlemates.
Of course the implications for this result.
Well known, both coaches already a little to it.
They know as Archie will get the opening goal,
11 seconds in to Game 2.
Doesn't take long, the previous goal, the minute or two in, and this time the smile from Nass comes out a little bit earlier.
He's got a lot to be happy about.
He's got a lot to be happy about, and hasn't tell me to go or assist in this series.
They're already up in the series, and up in Game 2.
By Tarty, we've got a lot more they can fight back with.
We have seen a lot of errors coming from this battalion team, a lot of frustrating errors.
That one roughing around the side of the net and Nass finally joins the scoring.
Here we'll get on the board there, his fourth ball off the group stage, right on the doorstep past Dizzy.
I mean listen, he kind of set all of his shots in the 1v1.
He had a little bit of a break today. His teammates have done well for him.
Not long enough to get by Virtus.pro, of course, earlier.
That's been enough.
The end of Vitality, at least for the moment.
Up two goals now.
Still inside in the first minute.
Great drop back there, and Xlomit couldn't get it on target.
This pressure has continued to mount.
City on the back, corner of the continue.
50, a big dump.
A team Vitality is going to open their scoring in the second.
Great demos from Zen again.
Both goals, Vitality, so far.
So far, coming from a Zen demo into Stizzy, finally crossing the line.
Stizzy, as you mentioned, all the offense for team Vitality, 50 seconds in.
Game on here, he's looking for yet another.
Oh, he feathered the touchdown, but Nass is there to sweep it away.
Definitely the right idea.
Oskie jumps up a little bit too high, and that's the third man.
He just has to beat one.
Ultimately, he went low, but not with climbing up for Oskie
to actually get it past the line.
He can't force this ball through. It's all the way back now for Nass.
Talk about the lack of actual scoring for Nass. He's still figured in very heavily, especially in the midfield.
He could win by Zen, and Oskie will just bring that ball right back.
Nasi to demo for all of his efforts, however.
Demo's about here from both gentlemates in vitality.
Through it all, everybody back on the pitch,
and his gentlemates back on the hunt.
And they are seasoned hunters as well.
They've pushed a couple of incredible results,
and they've made sure that they can fill out the trophy cabinet
back into Mate's HQ.
Sissi is also not particularly alien to these incredible results as well.
Well, and then, removed from the pitch, is medium of Nass.
The floaty ball Oskie can receive.
We wait for somebody to go central.
No, he'll just go the entire way himself,
and then it's called into defensive beauties.
I wonder how much different this matchup may be
if these two were somehow to meet again
in the knockout stage, take a pretty extraordinary set
of circumstances for that to happen.
with Disney and Exotix not clearing this away.
Zen waiting to see what Archie does with it.
Right to go right underneath with the drive challenge.
Didn't even get the demo though.
That is perfectly done by Archie.
But now, by Talon,
he's directing Disney force it through with a little wide.
There's the demo now.
Can he repay the favor to Zen?
He has not.
The defense from Gentlemates holds firm.
This feels inevitable.
Oh, not for more!
And there it is.
Exotix, the man surrounded by question marks.
Marks puts an exclamation mark above his head.
Zen couldn't do it.
Stizzy couldn't do it.
Exotic gives it a flipping good go
and slams it through for Vitality II.
Exotic his first goal, and that leaves Zen
as the only player on the pitch without a goal in this series.
Can't expect that to last for very long.
Right now it's Vitality on the back foot.
Oh my goodness.
Ness pinches this all the way to the back court.
Zen will outlapse.
There goes, right at the opposition.
Now, Oskie so quickly up for the ball,
that takes out of the corner.
Man, sometimes it looks like they can just see
into the future.
And those leaps of both of these teams,
that future is bright, but only one can win here.
Sizi hits the crossbar.
And with this boot being gradually etched away,
Vitality, they do have to leave.
Could come from Archie Grampinch at temper.
Oskie is doing his best, but on a head impression, unsuccessfully.
One miss, and a 150, right into that back corner.
His quick turns from Oskie are really throwing their vitality defense for a loop.
Talked about wildcard earlier, they will not be perfect swept.
The sweep is still on the table, that ball of chess ringing off the crossbar and sent away.
Minus one goal in game one.
They were shut out in the second game, so give Virtus.pro their seventh shutout of the group stage over on the alt-stream.
Now Stizzy trying to go low. Oskie there to save the day.
Who's going to break a two-off deadlock here? Could it be Archie on target and then the save?
Stunning free jump from Archie there.
Managed to completely work it past Vitality defense. Stizzy for Ghostball, Ghost of Man, but Oskie too large.
completely out of the way.
Deadlock up until the final 30 seconds in game number two.
Stizzy trying to pop over Archie, not having any of it.
Zen against Nass, got by him once.
Now exotic course, Stizzy and Archie slams the door shut
and finds some daylight downfield.
That's such an annoying touch from Archie.
I felt they had like a 2v3, a 3v1 even.
And he just admitted gives them all away.
Yet boost, Zen was struggling.
One touch midfield, no one there.
Vitality, until Nass can take a shot.
Well, let's keep it up, he does boink!
Straight central, full-film locked bid.
My talentee, Undesunderly, dropped it to the ground.
What a brilliant pass, too.
Felt like that was absolutely going to end up in the net.
Oskie with a big boy challenge.
Now here's Nass.
Right at exotic.
Archie to center.
It found Xen, Nass, and now Xen right into Oskie.
Gentlemix, one in the 50 game here,
but they can't generate any quality chances
and vitality for the zone.
And Nass now floating, makes it look a little bit too easy.
So Vitality immediately challenge him, Sizi.
He has managed to get a 50 pass RG,
then now next man to it.
On the side of Oskie, one tap through could be enough.
But unfortunately, there is a Hydra's head of defenders
All three ready to go on shot just find a target but says he's missed will not mean too much then send to clear it away
It's a way yet again
One minute into this overtime
Immediate dive from Zen is going to be putting the gentlemates on edge even if just briefly
Oskie does manage to collect that full canister that he landed right in front of
Use it to get a piece of that effort from Zen as Archie calls off Nass
Demo behind the play by who else but Zen. Exotic, big, not quite open, but it is a loose ball in front.
Zen locked in for Steadie!
And the overtime, falling the weighty of the Golden Hornets. Not necessarily as easy as they may want it to feel,
considering, you know, the fact that they've managed to take him down more often.
often, and also more recently in the Paris Major EU Open number six.
With the seven and that, of course, we're doing best of fives here, and I do really appreciate
how locked in all these players look right now.
There wasn't a huge pop-up.
There wasn't, oh my God, we've done it.
Can't be called very susceptible to that.
In the end, it's dizzy to be the man that deserves to pop off the most on vitality side.
How's she outscored by two players on gentlemates?
And she started off very early on with that gentleman's 2-0 lead.
It was 2-0 in the first minute.
And then Vitality chips away.
Those two goals felt like they were so long ago.
Stizzy getting one back early.
And then the game winner after Zen denied.
Stizzy puts it home.
Three goals in the series for Stizzy and the first loss in three attempts.
in three attempts in overtime for
gentlemates. We go one all now going
into game three, Futura Gardens awaits
in this French derby here between
gentlemates and Vitality, a matchup that
again in a lot of cases you would take
this as a grand final on paper going
into any tournament. We get it here for
three on Thursday. Here we go, game three.
The top of group D. The group is three
at the World Championships, but having both mates in vitality is absolutely vermin.
Oskie can immediately continue, where Gentleman is left off at the start at least of the previous game.
Actually with a lovely pitch right in the midfield, it's a nice pass, but that's definitely by vitality.
Oskie will win at midfield, last line of defense to slow down exotic.
Here goes Stizzy. Delays just a moment to try and get past Oski.
There's Stizzy to put away and pass the save.
Running save away by Moroccum.
Kips his head on the swivel. Make sure that he can see any chances
going to be coming through. You can save that away in the end.
Stizzy with how many amounts of boots.
Thanks, one, thanks two. Goes to Bob on the third and is chair.
Disrespectful play from the Spaniard.
Get out of the way, please. I said out of the way.
And then it pinballs around, this goes in off of Oskie.
One lucky break for a gentlemaid's vitality will take him.
Brilliant play from Vitality, Stizzy in particular,
looking remarkably good in this series.
There's Exotic, finds Zen, and then finds his way back to Zen,
after the Exotic again.
And look at the boost total, four gentlemen,
they are low across the board.
It was, and that's really with an amount of boost,
But he can't do much with it. He just has to play a much bigger role.
And that boost stealing at the back is what opens it up.
You see that Nass doesn't really want to go here, but it has to.
Oscar then can't move. Artie tries to find boost and is therefore late rotating back.
And that kind of play has set up 15 seconds in the past.
What a beautiful setup, too, from Stizzy with exotic diving in.
Kicks up his third goal, and now Archie all the way across with now Vitality out to a two-goal lead.
Didn't work out so well for General Mates in the last game.
This is a team Vitality and Astrophi that looked like...
Yeah, they have solved the puzzle so to speak.
And the puzzle is what Entrudey solved over on the Ultimate Street as well.
Five nil in game three, the Virtus.Pro over Wildcard.
And it is a disastrous exit from the World Championships for the Australians.
The Europe is still fighting strong to try and battle quite frankly against a North America that has never looked this good.
That is terrifying, even as a North American fan, because that means they're due for some else, but we'll see.
Out of the corner now, Xen's gonna have to retreat back to the corner, Archie giving chase, got the demo!
No shot from Oskie, Jess couldn't get around on it.
Now Nass, right at Xen, who's back into the play, back with a vengeance.
Plenty of boots in the tank, but he over-entered out.
As Archie brings this down, past one, but not past Xotic,
who has looked upstanding now in this final series of the group stage.
This is the demo as well, but Xen can't quite keep this in the zone.
And Xen still gets a double tap.
Jess, to keep out of reach, you gentlemights.
He's in, I like touching him to a low-strength NAS.
The boost is looking a lot better in recent times. Full gentlemates, a lot more even.
Now we're getting starved Archie, reset, bound, but it's not going to pop the heat.
Really needed to get over the defender.
What else does Zen have? Obviously, pass out to Archie!
Oh! Well, the luck goes in!
NAS stays with the play, and has Jammite back on the board.
with a speed from Nass, and the defenders might have thought that he was going to be going for a shot to the backboard.
The set finds Archie in the midfield, who is very unlucky to be honest, not to find success himself.
But Anasiste is pretty much half a goal, and he gets over to his teammate,
and that is Pro. They clean up on the B-string,
and Choney and Jorbey have taken a little nap as that series is nowhere near as exciting as what you ladies and gentlemen have got here.
Sand over towards Dizzy, who will kick charge.
You can talk about the lack of urgency that would certainly exist for both of these teams,
but again, we've mentioned this is kind of the testing ground for both these squads.
So just kind of measure up against each other, and you can almost be certain that none of
these squads wants the other to be able to hold that over them.
What a save by Nass for retreating back to his own crossbar.
One in a million save.
There really has been there for the players, despite they're getting the stakes not quite being there.
And on target from Zen, saved by Oskie for a million and a million save this time.
The city taking it all the way around, if they can play keep away that is going to suit Vitality just fine Zen and he's got a 50 here but
he's very well frosty and he goes into his own corner and resets saves it uses it only as far as exotic he has the brilliant in theory so far
and one more goal would certainly seen it here for Vitality.
Archie up and manages to hang in the air to find gravity, but this still falls to Exotic,
who adds yet another, a series leading fourth goal for Exotic, and that may be the knockout
blow in game three.
Nasko completely up guard on the goal line, takes a mid, looking sleek and a 50 on the
right hand side instead, Exotic has completely different ideas.
Too clear! The primary French team.
Only 30 seconds remaining, gentlemen.
If it doesn't happen now, it's not going to be happening until you head towards game number four.
Head to Utopia in just a moment.
Presumably with vitality in front unless gentlemen have a miraculous answer.
Down to 12 seconds. Got to move forward now.
Doesn't matter how many goals you can see at this point because that can't become a timebreaker.
As Archie, right at Zen, Zen looking for one more for the road. Won't get there.
And the only question now is what makes you use their timeout as Stizzy drops the hammer on him.
I think the giant cooldowns Stizzy that Sizzling spanyard, you need to use your timeout.
You've got to just temper their expectations, temper the aggression that they've got going their way.
There's a fantastically weighted vitality side at the moment.
And gentlemen, it doesn't necessarily look quite up to snuff.
Gentlemen did not use their timeout in their previous match with Virtus. Pro, going into game 5.
VP used theirs once they went down 2-1 in the series.
Exotic there, shooting 100%, three shots, three goals.
He's been an absolutely fantastic player. Again, the comments are falling his way.
He's kept his head above water. He's made sure to just focus on his game.
And he's obviously had a lot of errors. This is a series where he deserves his flowers.
So far, you could change a lot of opinions when you step up against your heated rival
and exotic, earning a lot of credibility again,
regaining that with Vitality's fans.
He's got eight goals on the week.
At four earlier today against Wildcard,
he's got four more and still at least one game to go,
Zen yet to score here in this series.
Did have the game winning assist in the game two overtime.
We'll be coming into the Coliseum by Tati and now one game away.
We're going through, I'm facing off in a lower bracket.
Of course, me and Luzi are going to be able to lock in anything in the uppers.
There's has already been secured by VP and the winner we're playing Furia and Falcons are in a bracket.
And then Luzi is going to be going through to play Twisted Minds and by Tati with Zen at the helm.
and looking that they need to lucky in the number two spot.
I tell you, Zen hasn't scored enough time.
Actually, it'll be manifested.
It's on it, actually.
It just kind of gets shoved from behind into passing this ball.
It's center.
And Zen on the north step will score 16 seconds in.
And it's Vitality who strike first and a close out opportunity.
He was in backboard.
City wants to form a little bit of a man.
Jake Charles from Reset does get it,
but Oskie Schussen down before it can be utilized.
And there really has been these opportunities taken to Vitality where
Gentleman has taken a couple more fights in the charity to get it done.
Vitality is settling in nicely yet. Another flip reset effort.
Stissie off the post. Exotic is there again.
Five goals for the former World Camp. Here we go, Vitality.
Vitality are running riot.
Archonoski both have an opportunity to hit that ball away, get it clear.
Bunga Keymate! Instead the post helps out and the fourth man for vitality is looking fantastic!
That's a great 50 to send this deep into Mates territory now, Zen. He's off touch, as always.
Doesn't get anything further. Exotic all the way back and he's got Nasty contend with,
Just meet some neutral, then an Oskie will battle, and Oskie just gives him a little shove, gets him away from the play.
Gentlemakes again by themselves, by Muffinball, largely trying to cut into it, and who else but Exotic for the save.
A cracking save keeps their way just above the crossbar.
And the pressure is now beginning to build, and Bubba Lovers, gentlemen, start to register a couple of shots on target.
That's what's the skimmy to central and no potentiaries then just get powered out by a teammate
Vitality have collectively generally speaking in a really good job. We're just kind of finding the sauce spot in the oncoming attack and
And attempt it's in their way out of danger. It's Nass
getting from his own back wall
Silling, musty, Exotic gives way to Zen, now it's his turn. Throw it up the net, hope something good happens.
But Archie just puts her in this beer pause and now Oskie, taken away by Exotic,
Zen has that pinballed away and Oskie should have the clear, at least after midfield.
In half the first 30 seconds, 40 seconds, Vitality does still have a lot more chances,
I'd have gentle mates but with the two goal handicap that Vitality earned
It becomes a lot harder to really get yourself back into this game. The gems my third one game one. They were too near up
Quickly things can change and you've got two teams of this caliber
Then get stay with it but Stizzy's there. Oh, it's just a moment to let one go by
We pass the halfway mark, vitality still firmly in control.
Oh, Zen, interviewer C, but Nass is there to collect.
Three minutes has to pass.
The minute two goes to catch up on.
Gentlemen, they've got two minutes to do so.
Genji Valjitkin and Zendrowski pair jumps early,
then jumps a little bit later.
Nothing to be honest, completely through off the vitality defense.
Oh, and this is perfectly placed too. Archie recognizes Zen is going shading up just a
little bit. So you just roll it through and your teammate doesn't get in the way going
for a bump. Perfectly placed. Gentleman's back in it. Archie threatening from the kickoff
and it's saved away by Zen and Stizzy. I don't blame both of them for that either. You have
to make sure that you lock in the save, that you confirm that kill and make sure they does not
sneak through. Doesn't lead to anything negative either, does he? Stills away for his teammate with
the pinch, he can loft it high, taking a punch off by the gentleman. It's something, what a luck
to dive across that is. Oskie, in other words, quite nice position, ends up being crushed a lot
harder than he would have liked.
Get out of the final minute, 15.
Archie giving chase.
Oh, good.
15 just to get a piece of that.
That's dizzy.
It's gonna go right across to exotic.
More possession.
More zone time for team vitality.
More opportunities to close out gentle mates.
Into the final minute.
Now it's Oskie.
Gotta take advantage of the minimal opportunities you're gonna have
a ham remaining to you this is off the wall bank is open but Zen is right there for the same
it's a winning record for vitality coming to action right now it's a great flick from Zen beats
one and the final 35 seconds something has to happen but gentlemen it's going to come at the helm
of oski not just yet not unity not thinking it's a right hand wall it is diving in gentlemen it's
It's a lot of diving, it's not a lot of doing.
Oskie, last gas for gentlemates.
Oskie now for Archie.
Oh, Archie wanted to run forward,
maybe got a little too far.
Zen to the backboard, the final few seconds.
What a skim!
Oskie, got him up the crossbar!
He almost caught him, but Vitality takes second
the group and it's Vitality who gets Furia, the prize for Gentlemates getting third place.
You get the Grim Reaper himself, Monkey Moon in his home in the first round of the bracket.
I am gutted that we did not see that going.
Archie with a perfectly weighted pass.
It sucks to ask you because if that goes below the crossbar, it's him.
If he goes above the crossbar, he doubles it, it hits the crossbar on the exact point
where it then bounces awkwardly at a diagonal, straight back down again.
We could have had a worldie, but by talent here they'll be happy.
And you saw Sidhu smile at the end.
Look at the cycle to set that up.
Oh man, perfectly waited.
Nobody saw it coming.
Could have been number one on tomorrow's top place and instead, just what might have been.
Well, I'll tell you what both these teams still look brilliant. Yep. I still don't think we see neither of them peak
No, it was neither of them out there absolute best and so
This is my talent. He's going down to face up against Furia and we're twisted minds have an event the gentlemates
We have now got our bracket entirely filled in and snacks
Not America. Mr. North America himself. They look really
Yeah, North America couldn't look any better
as we look back at the story of Kennelmates and team vitality.
Stizzy, awesome, exotic, incredible,
and Zen, as sure-handed as you like at the back,
plays more of a supporting role.
But vitality take down their rivals,
and they're standing by now with Lee.
And Vitality, get the job done there against Gentleman. It's exotic. Congratulations on that win there.
So, victory of Vitality against Jensen Thalmes. Congratulations for the victory, XO.
Thank you very much.
That's it. I think we all got that one here.
Coming into this matchup here, obviously, I think the first day, probably a bit rough there.
Virtus.pro is popping off here, but probably not the result you wanted.
but today probably felt a lot better for you guys,
making sure you got a dominating performance
over Wildcard and then this one.
Does that give you that confidence now
going into the bracket
or do you think a little bit more work for you?
Do you still have this Virtus.pro defeat in your head?
No, Virtus.pro's defeat didn't happen in my head.
We didn't play well yesterday, otherwise we would have won.
We would have played like today, for example.
Today, 3-0-3-1 against Mate and Wildcard, and Mate is a top team.
It's a competitor for the Worlds.
It gives us a lot of confidence.
Now we're going to play off confidence, and now we have to do the lower run.
Yeah, you know, like the last we had yesterday against Fielce's Pro, we don't really think about it,
just because we know that we didn't really play our game, so we don't really think about that,
but obviously today we played much better against both white card and gentlemates that are clearly a clear contender for the title.
So yeah, now it gives us lots of confidence, a boost for us, and now we just have to do the lower bracket run,
but yeah, it gives us lots of confidence, definitely.
Now, for you specifically, you know, coming to this, you could just say we played our game and that's the difference.
But for you, maybe, what was that difference maker coming into today that really allowed you guys to hit your stride for, again, you individually?
After the defeat, we talked a lot, we analysed things with Aversax,
then we continued, we screamed, we worked, we analysed, we did all these things.
Today, we feel better, a little bit.
It helps, and I feel better individually, so it's easier.
Now, we have to continue like this until the end.
happen analyzing the games, so screaming as well. And yeah, I think just today, you know,
all of us came like pretty much prepared, feeling better. And so individually, when it comes to
my own personal love and the way I was feeling, I was feeling much better today. I was feeling like
I was here, I was just here, and I was just ready. So even personally, it was just feeling better
today. But as a team as well, we did the job, you know, it worked. Yeah. And speaking of Aversaq,
so I mentioned to him before that, you know, the desk had given a beat here to vitality before
He said, well, I'll take the underdog pick.
I'm assuming you don't listen to the desk anyways, but in your head,
do you like being the underdog?
Maybe knowing that there's a little bit pressure off,
or do you like having the eyes on you?
So that's what we discussed with Eversax earlier,
the fact that the desk gave you the best.
So this approach in underdog, in container,
in favor, does it change anything on your side?
Does it do you good to have so much pressure on the shoulders?
You're not expected to have great favorites,
Or the other way around, I'm a bit confused.
Honestly, I don't care what people say.
I don't know if they like it or not.
We are confident that we can win.
If we play as we want to play,
it won't be the other way around that will change a lot.
So, being an underdog,
you might have the impression that you don't expect,
you're more still, but whether you're a favorite or an underdog,
We don't care, we don't care what people think of us.
We are confident about what we do.
It's the most important thing.
us being like favorites or just underdogs doesn't really change much because we know that we can do it.
Just got to play your game. That's all you got to do. Hey, well, you got a win there. Congratulations,
Exotic. But that is it now for our 3v3s. We're going to go back to the desk. You prepared for
2v2s. Let's hear what their thoughts are that we don't care about. All the stories about monkey
moon here, about how this is his building in Dickey's arena. But Exotic was standing on that stage
with him when he held that trophy the last time we were here. And he's looking to get back to that
that stage and do it again. This win a huge step in getting that far and he was a world
championship MVP as well. That's the best performance of his career. And that was a
much better showing today through both of their series. Vitality coming out strong.
They figured out their issues very much like rebellion and they're definitely contender
a dark horse to run that lower bracket. Look, Leaf didn't want to say to a Joltec,
but what a return to form for him as well. I mean, he was flat. He was very poor yesterday
And it wasn't Zen, just 1v3ing there.
It was just Vitality looking like a better team.
The gentlemates did not what certainly I expected
with the predictions coming in.
I think we mentioned, you know,
the gentlemates are the second and third and fourth best players
on the pitch in this lobby.
But it just looks more on song.
We saw a little bit of magic,
some moments of brilliance from gentlemates.
But this is still not the same team
that won the Boston Major games.
Yeah, it's not the same team.
And listen, you got to think about it.
Can they really bounce back to form?
And they're going to have to,
because the gentlemates and our girls
are going to get twisted minds
and lower bracket around one.
Monkey Moon, Monkey Moon going up against the Mace in this and Monkey Moon with the crowd now. He made it to that moment
Yeah, big for them by Vitality. They win they end up on the same side as Falcons in the bracket
They go please do Falcons, but they got fury at first and you know, it's bad blood to vitality
As well, so that's gonna be fun. So we'll see how that pans out
So, you know, both those teams are really very excited about that matchup
But for now by Tyler to come out on top
But again both these teams have a long road ahead both in the lower bracket tomorrow
Yeah, I just kind of fell even in the match the thing like either team they wanted to win the match by there
I think they just like maybe really uncomfortable losing message in the day testing things out get a rip of tomorrow
It's too over time though
Maybe that goes the other way gentlemen to win that game to OT then the two all off in the series
It goes another way, but it didn't and vitality credits on they shut them out
They're held on exotic bounces back and they're looking great moving into bracket play folks
The groups have concluded we can take a look at how group D panned out at the end their vertus
throw up on top and a on top right now is vitality with that one over general
made secures the number two seed general needs will be number three wild card
thank you for playing the you are eliminated from the 2026 rocket league
world championship along with ninjas and pyjamas bogeys and made in brazil all
four of those teams have exited our tournament yeah a little disappointing
from wild card obviously not winning the game torsos i believe didn't even score
a goal this morning which was a little bit rough there but obviously the last
game. It didn't matter as much to have a little fun. We got the gummy ship coming in the front.
He was on the game. So they were having some fun with it. So maybe that's why they didn't win one
in the last one. But still, hats off to everyone playing. But now we're down to our final 12.
We have our bracket. The other bracket will be Carming Corps versus Virtus Pro, Foot Esports versus
NRG, Twisted Minds versus Gentlemates, Man City versus Space Station Gaming, Falcons versus Rebellion
and team vitality versus fear.
Yeah, no and double-tucked here.
No regional matchups here all internet
except for one North American North American
matchup in the top.
Everything else.
Yeah, the tour system.
When you've got that many great North American tanks,
you're going to have the same.
3 to 4.
Welcome, Hastings.
It's always going to happen in the Alpenbrack.
Jalion.
It's just it's North America.
The greatest region of all time.
I will say, I will say, we've been talking a lot about how
NA always starts this tournament strong.
And then it falls apart at the end.
This is a little bit deeper than we usually make it.
I mean, and they're not knocking each other out too.
That's the upper back.
He heartbreak the whole entire way.
And here comes the storm.
This is how it usually written.
Manchester City's got that, the greatest series of their life
against PlayStation.
Chopper 5 is going to play.
Chopper 5 is going to play.
Chopper 5 is going to play.
And they're not going to be playing foot in the upper back.
And Chopper 5 is going to play.
And what is happening?
And no, they're going to get bounced out next.
It's going to be one by one.
And at the end of the day, we're going to end up a car in my court
by Tau.
and Falcons on the top four anyways, so it doesn't matter. It might happen. This is
why we got to play the game. We are not done for the day. I know it looks like we're done
because this is usually where things would end. But for the first time ever, we have
two v two world championships to crown here and the best weekend rock league. We're going
to have the semifinals here in just a moment. When we come back, twins from Falcon taken
on the duo from Furia, that more, enough after the break.
Okay, the plummeters fixing that burst pipe should be all set.
Good thing you protected 24-7 with your home and auto bundle from Progressive.
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm just trying to figure out the right caption to post about this.
Maybe something like, I have for Texan, just need a lifeguard.
What about that emoji with a shocked face?
Or maybe flooded with emotion.
That's too much. Trying to... Tuesdays are cray.
You know, technically, you don't have to post everything that happens online.
I don't really believe you. Life is meaningless with that affirmation. Am I right about it?
I
Milk can help you get jacked!
Milk can't make you your dog's favorite.
I
Have a chance to kill it the oath of the ceiling
I just wonder why
I'm buried in a suit I'll never buy
A suit I'll never buy
Coffee in my race
I can't act surprised
When the shop is hidden in the earth
To the starry sky
Since I've said everything
I've been looking for a place to make me be
from my ribs, I can't have surprise when the shop is here.
Take me out of here.
Give me some time.
The action continues live from Fort Worth, Texas with the Rocket League Championship
Series World Championship of 2026.
The 3v3 action has concluded for the day.
to get into our first ever land to be two matches for the RLCS.
I'm so excited about it. It's been a long time coming.
We've been here a decade.
We're finally getting the most played game mode in the championship series.
Yeah, pretty much all of these players too in three to three,
they play to be ranked the most because you get more time on the ball.
You have more chances to do things and everyone loves to use
because you can only have to blame one teammate instead of two.
True. True.
You have a better chance to win your game.
I mean, James, I feel like it's the right balance of like,
I want to make the plays.
I want to be the one on the ball,
but I also want to have a little bit of a safety net.
And I also wanted to have a team that I can work with.
You get to do that fun part from three,
you get to do the fun part from one
without the frustrating parts of either.
Yeah, it makes it a little more dynamic.
I mean, in 1v1, you have to be so defensive.
You cannot leave your net open.
You can't take risks.
In 2v2, you can take a little bit more risk
because you do have that helping hand.
But I also, I must admit, I love 2s as well.
It's so fun to play.
Gives you room to go for those crazy mechanical plays
without having to worry about playing defense, which, you know, that's good for me.
It's a good time for everyone involved. I'm sure everybody watching also plays.
We have four of the best 2v2 squads we've ever seen in the building right now,
and they qualified regionally to get here.
Each of them representing their region.
The South American team will be the boys from fear.
He's actually interested because in 1v1, when we show the highlights,
every single qualifying match is all game sevens from 2v2.
It's not like that. These are four of who's coming out of Sam and Mina.
Then it's with absolutely downlady the whole entire region is to be expected to do is in my estimation the game mode where mechanical
Ability excels like no other that's why you have zinni and three thousand more over in Europe right now
Yeah, and then you have chemistry as well and I'm so we can't have more chemistry
I bet that the twins there was one game seven years, but
We have twins on the field with each other playing of course their chemistry is going to be top notch
came down to the final play basically on Champions Hill for the thousands two
events. Yeah the twin energy undeniable and this is on the other side of things
we do have Zach and reveal representing North America which we'll play later on
and you know Zach and reveal have had some really good results lately even in
3v3's but it's really been fun watching their ascension in North America but I
feel like so many people talking about this combo. Oh man this combo in particular
What was it 44 and 1?
Yes, sir.
It was 1-1.
It was unheard of, just simply too talented.
Even a series-clenching, tournament-winning goal
that you're about to see out here from Atso.
This shows you exactly what these two were doing.
And ever since then, Zen's broken the record for MMA Mark.
The record before that thing was 2,700.
Zen said, let me up about 300.
3,000 MMA Mark for Zen.
These are four teams in the twos bracket.
We haven't had a twos land at this level
the universe open back in 2018. Halfway to Zen's 2's MMR is GC1. That's correct. That's
half way. That's where I'm at about right now. These are just double to be doubly as
good Gibbs. Yeah, you're as close to someone who has zero MMR. It's not crazy. So no miss
just fake as you saw on that bracket there. That is Zen and Atto. We've been calling them
Zato backstage is kind of a fun name and that's going to be going up against SSG.
That'll be our second match of the day.
We'll have fearia versus falcons here to start things off.
This is the big one.
We're very excited to see which of these duos is to play in front of the crowd
for a hundred thousand dollars.
Just showing up and losing today.
You get 10 K in your pocket.
You win.
You win.
You go up to 50 K and you get the chance to double back.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
I'm looking at his prize pool right now for everybody watching at home or even
pros who even out there probably goofing around right now. All y'all need to be playing all these
game modes. And you win 1's, 2's, and 3's. If you can pull off the, whatever you call that, the
trouble, you would make so much cash. You would, and just buy a house. You would get 200k. And then honestly,
there's really no reason not to be great at 2's in particular, because that's what you play all the
time anyway. So that's constant lab and 1's NAS talks about yesterday, you don't really need to play
1's once you reach that type of level. You're really still only pricing your 3's and then just
competing in twos and ones. Give yourself a shot. We'll see if they can do it, folks. We are getting
moments away from kicking off the 2v2 action here on the mainstream. We will play through both of
them back to back and then we will be set for our grand finals, which will happen on Saturday
in front of Rocket League's greatest fans here. No mischief, Fague. That is Zen and Addo. They'll
be taken on space station a little bit later on. Let's get into our first match of the day. Falcons,
the Twins, Roas and Killiers, taking on Yan and Swift from Virial.
And again, two's a lot of it is about communication about who goes for what ball on defense.
And it is very difficult when you're going up against Twins to have better chemistry.
But Yan and Swift are going to try and make that happen.
It's going to basically come down to those aerial plays where you have to get both involved on the defensive side.
But Falcons, known as probably the best team on defense in threes, I expect the same thing in twos here.
I mean, there's two great players and what a story would be.
Honestly, it lands in a major recording three.
But winning a two's tournament with your brother, your twin, is insane.
It is anime levels of epic to be like, to have the world champions,
especially the inaugural 2v2 world champions, to literally be twins.
I cannot get over how cool that would be.
And I think they've got a very decent shot here, James, of being crowned 2v2.
Yeah, I'd make the holiday season pretty fun.
can do. Look back at that. And also I will say personally when Zenonato went on that run,
I was looking at this combo, Rolasta Killers, as the ones who really could step up and put up
a fight against them. These two have had a remarkable rise in their career and then also
making history being on the MENA team that won the first RLCS International Land. So these guys,
They've made history before looking to do it again. Exactly. Now these two squads they are the more battle-tested one guy
I was thinking they swap their bike and it's everybody but 5 1 1
That was TRK and Gazi that had to be pushed to game 6 in that one and in games game 6 early on up in the bracket
And in game 7 of course in the grand final to qualify for this match
They had to play competition on their level. Yeah, that's what they haven't really seen it in Sam
They were going 4-1 4-0
Etc. Etc. Etc. I know, of course, obviously everybody's played two since then.
I don't know how much criminality they're doing for them. They probably don't do any.
But the point I'm making is that in competition at this level,
the boys were tested and these guys on the other end, they have to answer that call.
Let's give a tough for them. Yannin Swift coming out of South America,
we saw in the 1v1 no-go took down KV-1 and now we have another mean of our sand battle.
But Fury also red-hot in the group stage
and your threes play is going to translate well to your two's actions.
And so Yan and Swift, I think have a better shot than I thought they would coming into
this weekend.
This is the former South American 1v1 regional champion, Yan, now here defending his region
in 2v2.
And you think about the things you were talking about earlier, James, of like, take the 3v3
environment, take away one of the players, give them a little bit more space.
Giving Yan more space is a recipe for success.
For any team he's on, he's going to have more of that in spades here in this format.
Yeah, but they are gonna be tested immensely one thing I will say however is that Sam has a bit had a bit of a
Resurgence at this event Furia already took down some tough competition and NIP and twisted minds in the 3v3 format
I think they are in better form than we've ever seen South America
So I'm not gonna count them out, but they do have a tough test. Let me say something man
Let me let everybody know at home if there is a tournament that Sam has the best chance
They wanted is this tournament right here because Jan has always been sensationally mechanical and we also had a turn about three years ago with
They might have been favorite game was really that guy top three player in the world top five player in the world
So
Tuesday so mechanics base giving yourself opportunities to create with the ball
Yeah more chances give the ball to the person like you and get the ball the person likes with it doesn't matter who they're going up
Against at this point you're splitting airs
It's just about a little minor mistakes from either players even more so in threes that really can make all the difference
Well, champ, let us know who you think is going to win here.
This inaugural 2v2 landmatch for the RLCS.
We'll make our picks on the desk.
James, who you got in threes.
I have team Falcons winning.
So I feel like it's only fitting to have team Falcons
winning here in 2v2 as well.
Give me team.
I was thinking there might be a little switcher.
No, not at all.
Yeah.
And I think if he plays out of his mind, they have a shot.
But I feel like it's twins.
It's Falcons.
It's twins.
Yeah.
I think about it.
Like I said, it's twos.
They're all really great.
like 27, 2800 MMR.
Sam has the best chance they can of winning this series.
I really like it.
I think it's a tall stuff.
I'm still going to pick the Talcans anyway.
God, it's like the story of the 20.
I think it is a little bit better.
They're going to get the job done.
But Sam does have a good chance, guys.
I would, if it, if it, I just, I cannot look past the fact
of how cool it would be, how fantastic it would be.
And also it's not like that.
And that makes it sound like I'm just like, oh, what's
the story?
Like, no, these are two of the best players in the world.
They have been playing next to each other their entire lives.
There you think that there's something that's connecting them like in the ether because of the way that they're just on the same page at all times
I do think the 2v2 is gonna be going to the Falcons here
And I do think they are my pick on this one
How does the coin feel about it Falcons and Furia here on one side on the other Furia for the coin?
We'll see we'll see if the fates have other things in mind
For gives to make up some yeah on the coin. I'm pretty excited that
keep running but 65% have the Falcons as well.
They are the favorites on the desk.
They are the favorites in chat and yet this is the first time
we have ever done this at this level
for this competition, folks.
Let's kick off the 2v2 action of the world,
J.B.J. Furion versus Falcons.
2v2 action, Nina taking on the very best of South America.
The greatest chemistry known to man
has to be if your twin brothers are on the beach
together. We got the Falcons going up against the boys from FURIA semifinals and a grand
final potentially in front of the crowd awaiting one of these teams here at Dickey's Arena.
It's going to be a good one.
This is actually so exciting our first time to get 2v2 here at the World Championship.
It's like you said who better than the twins and some of the best players of all of South
America that just, both of these guys on both ends of the field,
invented speedy rockery,
brought the first to score him and his brother
a beautiful pass and play to start things off.
And all the best they made out for 2v2 online.
That's again the EWC in the threes.
They're here as one of the f**king tenders.
3v3 RLCS for World Champs 2026.
Can they win 2v2 as well?
That's a nice response from you.
The underdogs coming into this semi-final is the underdogs.
This is what they experience in the chemistry off the twins,
but that's a nice response. Kickoff goal.
Yeah, a little bit of a late recognition there.
I believe it was from Kaleur's to make that cut back.
Buria takes advantage off the kickoff.
A lot of these goals we're going to see
are going to be off kickoff there.
Should there be even the slightest mistakes?
Swift. Up in the air, reset.
He said Yan was already waiting for money.
The other end, double toward the next.
And I like seeing that coming through the double reset
theory up.
I show that they are forced to be getting
extended to be worried about.
The pitch almost hit the back of the narrow ass.
That would have just collected by a little bit of time.
Maybe his brother to get set as well.
There's the top of crossing.
How could it challenge him?
I thought he was going to just leave that one through to keep up, but instead, it's Ian actually side flipping back down to that sort of pace that Falcons have.
That's going to be certainly hard to contest with coming up against twin brothers high in the sky.
Yeah, the thing that definitely separates the Falcons right now from Korea is the Falcons separated or a challenge in and of itself individually.
A one-day one against Clear's like this is going to be terrifying.
Demo from Clear is on his rotation now.
Rilas to catch in the air.
Yan, low boost, still managed to get a touch on this.
Clear's already back for another.
Swift, beautiful, nose dive for that 50.
Yan is able to make the clear here for Furia.
Furia, banking on these challenges in the air to slow the Falcons down.
The team is now qualified through the minute to be to an online portion of this tournament actually didn't drop a series by Dico game seven against T.I.K. and Garzi.
And a huge grand final match which was absolutely incredible to watch.
And here now we're going to take on the likes of this period line of the likes of Zen and that's so the space station gaming pause as well.
Well, we're on the semifinal.
Zenonato, the hot faves to take out the whole team
for the Twins are right there with them.
And we shot like that for the last, exactly one.
Such a fancy duo.
Beautiful.
Reached that just a nice step push.
Jan all over the place.
It's probably the least energetic we're ever
going to see the Twins with that missed fishbump.
That doesn't make sense to go the same terrain.
most of the time through for the shot on that relax goal line saved only time to be seen that for a man
Burial
Finds equalizer double-fitted carry off the killers as well. If you just any human missile coming through all the way to the top
Yeah, it's and so much work done by Swear to get it get the demo
Possibly caught it now the counterattack. Yeah, we did save for a last go to the low driven shot condition go for furia
You can walk it in
Stunched!
Fiora have done it.
This team is still going to bring
a top American player to their play style.
Just quick punches over and over
until they get the job done.
Fiora managed to tie things up here
with just over two minutes left to go in this game one.
You mentioned they came seven for Mane
on the South American side of things Fiora.
They didn't drop a game in the grand final.
A 4-0 sweep coming through.
Juo, Yan and Swift still trying to break their way through this Falcons unit.
Unit AR as well.
The addition of Joralee taking out the Esports World Cup.
We know 2v2 has been there for a taker so long.
Oh, that's so strong in his format as well.
And that's why he opened it through the midfield.
The demo as well on Swift to get the lead.
Just low boost, boost starving furious seems to be the easy answer
and I think that's an easy answer in any two scenario whether it's ranked or the 2v2 world championship
putting the opposition on that extremely low resource pace of play
is going to make things so much easier for yourselves, clear areas up in the air,
fake some flip, drop a little bit slow to follow, they call themselves back off, they quit cutting the mid
Killers actually loses possession, has to track back and just keep it nice and tidy, nice and close, with a 15 left now.
There's the pop over the top, yeah, just wanted to mid-boost instead though.
This is an island of swifts and a little bit of trouble, he is 0 and he antroposes his trouble for fury of it.
On occasion, Grlast didn't want to push up, find the passing lane, through the back post, Killers has got to drop it.
Down as Yan gets demoed, now Swift just has to buy time for his teammate for his joint to get back to this guy goes, Killers, Swift, easiest your life to begin.
So he's playing a little bit of time there, Yan gonna have to make up for it.
If you down, Swift takes his turn, hop shot to deny.
Killers around the corner half a tank to work with, he knows he has the opportunity, tries to double it on the back of his car,
if you're gonna take an opportunity, but it will go wide.
South ends can breathe for just a second.
Yeah, it's nice poison ball from Killers.
He might have been hit a shot on there.
He hasn't quite found a line.
Then he was looking for one.
That bounce is infavorable for Curio, which is a blast!
What's another one in the back of that?
In fact, that's his fourth of the game.
He's always had the upper hand over Killers in the 2v2 form.
That was just setting why he isn't.
I mean, that's...
To not take anything away from Killers.
Four goals to the good of Fowlkins.
Four goals to Rawass.
They should be taking game one unless there's any crazy off this kickoff that doesn't look to be
Yeah, right now falcons are definitely gonna remain in control in these final ten or at least it should be that way
rare miss off the clip from Yan
But that being off the mark just saved the falcons from being forced into a very high pressure
situation the Falcons take game number one the Continuiter Street to not be
taken down. Falcons hot favourites out of the two semi finals you would say
perhaps space station the most likely to cause an upset compared to Fury are here
just with the strength of Falcons the strength of me here is really too big to
the fact that they were able to win that open qualifier and get themselves to this
position to be the meaner representatives.
You said with Fury taking down Drops and Drafino in a 4-0 sweep.
Just not as strong as South American side of incident.
This has been a close game one.
This has been. And I honestly anticipated it to be both of these teams in their own respective versions.
Play a very quick paced shootout, you know, obsessed style of throughs rocket league.
It just has always felt like meanest thing to refine that version of it a little bit better.
And it's showing here, at least in this game one.
Absolutely. I think Falcons, they came in confident and they've kind of ticked the box with the 3v3 side of things.
They've got Shopify, Rebellion tomorrow to deal with in the 3s world.
But 2v2, this has always been well in case the 3s doesn't go well.
What if we could beat the 2v2 world champs and what a story it would be as well for the first 2v2 world championship to go to?
twin brothers, the connection, it just, it makes sense, this energy, I don't know why we wouldn't have thought that they
just completely run away with this tournament, unfortunately the likes and send it out to her.
Throwing a bit of a spanner in the works, and a big one at that with just that dominant they've been as well,
and that seems to lose, and Falcons have lost in this semi-finally, they're just yet.
First game on the board, Q-R out, what do you got for us?
See, all the kickoff right now,
because I should still go with the Falcon.
Another shot taken out by Swift.
Clear stays for the shot.
Does manage to find it with ease.
I love this.
As soon as he lands straight down,
he's waiting just to rip it straight back on that hand.
And you quite know how quickly
he's turned around to the back on it.
I feel like after this moment, it is very valid
to assume that the Babacar always
He's just going to continuously kick those shots.
Take kickoff.
Swifters after the rice is up to that one.
That's just smart play that first goal from the Falcons.
They just recognized where the space was.
They grabbed the back post,
boosted it across, there were two members.
Both members of Fury were front post.
It's using the expanses of the pitch,
spreading it across it.
In the end, there was nothing that Fury could do
once the shot came in.
Swift, reset, goes low.
Could be one. I don't know.
Chilas has got himself in all sorts here.
You can see he's throwing his head back as well.
What is happening? He went backboard.
He was hovering. He was waiting.
What's a big mistake? He's just fallen off the backboard.
Given Furia a freebie.
Just a little bit of overthinking in the moment.
Costs the Falcons a goal.
They try to recollect when he's here off the kickoff.
So we'll take it, ulti-ceiling, two in the south.
We'll try and keep this in control, reset forward.
Two up in the air, Falcons keep this one up.
There's a shot on, man!
It's Dr. Gospar.
Swift is, that's a beautiful first touch with the jump as well.
To avoid the demo.
Smart plate from Swift, he's rigged upon reset.
None of you wanted that much, but I was trying to stay.
He's a little bit connected with it.
He's very out of the field themselves.
A strong position now is
Big mistake from Killis mentioning game on it. It's feel like a last is the David
Suvetsu player out of the brothers
Dominic Killes has been as a MVP in the threes format as well, but
Rolasses is some of these bread and butter right here. There's some mega cubes
Nice kills trying to drop it down where last was there. It's a little awkward for the battle
You talk about that bread and butter of you know the twins having their specialty
It's just it's so fun, especially when the player cans are on this is this poses
We're gonna get to a glimpse into what it was like seeing them growing up playing together
Intes for so long fury on the flip side switching in and for
such a long time
To make it this far is something to be very proud of looking to go for a gold here swift looking for the buck
Justin! To mind game for Yen Mega Shrap!
Yeah, I like that. I like that from Swift.
You got the first demo. It's everyone who's done it.
One person left, going to throw a Wax in that.
He had to throw himself early just because Swift was underneath.
If he waits, he gets demoed.
And Yen knew he was going to insta-challenge from the pressure
via Swift. Instant flick of beautiful flick as well. Top left.
And here we are. Get the lead.
Falcon taps. It's going to shake the game too.
This dude will work after all that, he saved his second flip, just to find the dark killers to stride that one on next with collect.
Who's that looking more comfortable than we saw in the first?
We do have a series here after all.
I definitely think we do, and I hope it's just competitive, but Killers, what's put an end to that?
Just claim a lead or at least a tie in game number two.
I lose.
Lost down.
If you've got to work with no backwards space, guaranteed.
Yan just goes for the clear.
Killers, collects.
2v1.
This one heads back out mid.
See what we're lost in doing here.
Gives it off, and Swift is there in time.
Still in opportunities, and Yan trying to nonsulate.
Kill is going to walk in one.
It's safe to flip.
Killers reacts in time as well.
Pass back from Yan.
Swift is going to leave that for the best South American
we've seen, Tian the man,
to pop over the top,
Gillis to the wall,
just trying to buy a little bit of time,
Swift doesn't get the reset he was looking for.
It's all about recovery,
not leaving,
the last man isolated,
not over committing like Yan is just starting to get Swift.
What's he got?
Last man this year, back in time,
he's just delayed enough for his teammate to help out.
Here it's gotta defend that one goal with their lives.
This time's going on the Falcons
where they're just starting to take as many shots
As they possibly can.
Swift on speed possession here, not 50 to throw it back.
He's talking to the hand.
And the stake!
Oh!
Whoa!
And remind them, exactly what he did do!
He jumps early to Falskely's off the ball, then the preflip into the backflip top.
Bar down!
Three-one!
That's goal of the tournament.
Determined to the 2v2 perspective.
That's disgusting!
Premier!
A proper clip to put Curia into the lead.
You saw the reactions, they're feeling great.
Rewinds and clears.
Got to lock in.
Just lots of feel for him, yeah.
It just looked like one of those plays where you just muck it around.
It ranks a free play.
You just hold a power slide and see what happens.
He was moving.
He was on skates and he had the Falcons defense on skates as well.
as well just like Roas has switched.
Oh, they both went for the bounce.
Someone's going to work it out here.
Falcons have left the fore behind trying
to isolate their last man, Roas, keeping a close low-fuss
free flip coming through from Swift.
They've got the clearance down the line.
This is huge and furious.
Still with the two-goal lead.
They just need to hang on to tie it up.
27 to go, and it's from Roas.
We'll see what he can do with it.
Swift in the open time.
Could do it, but he's shut.
We'll get him with the Falcons.
The opportunity to tie!
Yeah, Swift wasn't in big trouble yet, it was so slow back and that's just the right play for N'Ruaz.
You see Kela shoot anywhere on that, I'll find the bump.
21 seconds still time.
See what we are to deliver.
Thank you.
Oh, this is bad, this is bad for R'uaz!
It's his yellow sauce!
As Falcons tried to change up.
Kill is trying to find Roatsu, pre-jumped, it's shooting at it.
Perhaps missed the ball and Swift has walked it in.
It's a disaster from Boulton, there's yet a couple of huge misplays.
They're looking at each other as well.
I don't speak Arabic or can lip read Arabic,
but it was probably brother, what are we doing?
Something of that description, eight seconds left, fury up.
You've got to be able to tie this one up.
That statement comes from the end, halfway through.
Once he scored that, it felt like it was all over for them.
for them. It's good maybe one more with a reset. How about two? How about one more goal? Yeah, it's
going to keep it up as well. Just have a little bit of fun with the Falcons. Swift is low boost.
Left of you. Incredible shot. One more for the Falcons now. The other end. There's still a low boost
and there it is. One more. Not too bad, Furia. Crazy response. Anyone might add. You can feel it
Two, the twins were having these moments where they wanted to kind of go into those like, really dramatic, complicated, like, let's do a fake and then a double fake and they're not going to know which one of us is who.
This is not parent trap time. You're here to play like friends. And Jan and shit are doing just that. They're having fun with it. And it is truly, it is carrying them very, very far.
Now, Yann looked like he was babysitting the Twins in that game.
He just took him to the absolute cleaners, and it was ridiculous for him, and it was just that
third goal from Fury up. It was simply ridiculous. Let's have one more look at this.
He goes the early jump, forces Kers off the ball, and then just gets him on skates,
and it rips it as well. Have a look at the reactions from the Fury boys.
Geez, they are feeling it and for good reason.
Perhaps this is going to be a lot closer than people thought.
I'd say for the predictions, most people, I don't know what the chat vote was exactly there.
Can't quite recall, but nine out of ten people you'd have
pulled in this would pick the Falcons boys.
I think it's really good.
I'll throw my hands up in the honest.
I picked the Falcons and rightfully so.
However, I wasn't anticipating
Brian Yen and Swift to be rolling up to the lobby.
Killers, their dribbles completely cut off.
A little bit awkward here from Rewashable.
Lose possession, began.
Here come Furia.
Takes his time. Beautiful bump.
And between the two, Furia take the lead.
Swift just with the close touches.
Well, here Rewashable's deep in net.
It's another beautiful play on there.
giving Yan a lot of credit but Swift is setting him up exceptionally well he's
getting ahead of the ball he's giving Yan space to work with and then he's just
going for a pop he's on the hunt he's looking for that last man in that he
knows that he's gonna be a wasp he lost the defend from the goal line he loves to
play safe but that gives a window to to work with to push forward Falcons him a
little bit of troll here in this 2v2 semi-final. Could Furio really do it?
That's a question.
See if the question can get answered.
The way they're playing right now,
it's looking like it is definitely possible.
Low boost on one half of the team for Furia.
Galvan's trying to make their mark by taking a shot
from out mid powerful enough to register,
but not quite find its way through.
Who lost catch from the air.
All of Furia.
Just trying desperately
to regain possession of the ball,
and that player might just do enough to get them at least out.
And that's apparently Jack coming into these two V2s as well.
A Furia, a chance.
And he said no chance.
And I quote, no chance at all.
Perhaps SSG against Zen and Absol, but this matchup fell.
Perhaps a given just with the strength, the quality of this duo.
There's another goal I'd say, but it's going to be a second goal for Furia.
Falcons cannot get out of defense.
They can't get out of that offensive third even.
That's just the ball that stayed there.
What last is floating across there?
Killers just get it straight out.
You've got to get it to the side.
Seeing Yan laugh like that should terrify the Twins.
That is some money that is absolutely feeling it
in a way that they haven't for quite some time.
Two nil up here for Furia.
All the vibes in favor of them.
Clear's and Roulas seem to just be overthinking
any attempt to get out. Here's one of the more
classic plays we'll get from them.
And it will work out.
Twice is the charm in this scenario.
They've passed in place.
South is finally by themselves on the board.
Yeah, they're just moving over to me.
They had to make the save though.
Again, had to force the pre-jump.
The pressure was too much.
This is what we expect from Falcons.
It's constant pressure, constant attack, and we're down this period of defense.
At least I've been able to keep the ball pretty sustained here at the time of that orange half, orange third.
Yeah, that's the worry about that demo.
Shrull girl, why she stole boost? She's got the hundred.
Does he have the goal he invented?
The blink of an eye, it's two-two.
Tied game all the way around.
Twins turn and figure out how to get past period that is through the sky.
Now off the kickoff. This has been a little bit of a week for them right now. Fury has
done an incredible job of having the read on the twins. Swift catch, Blake up in the
air, straight denial.
Swift is still looking incredibly deadly and looking easy, setting up. Time to time again,
nice save. Killers, yeah, went low, knowing that this man was on the backboard, but now
Now is he giving space.
Swift is flurtsy, good danger there.
Roll ass wants the instant pop reset over the top,
beats Swift, pokes Yance back, and he is.
Hang on, counter attack time, unless,
let's go as early as he, Swift.
Swift, playing off that whip.
Keep Curia attacking, keep Curia aggressive.
Kills is gonna wait.
Yance says, we'll give it to me then.
I'll have it, I'll go for a reset.
This puts himself right where the ball is tracking.
And still, Falken's not looking that comfortable.
It's good to thank Yov Falken.
It's always a scary sign if you're showing that confidence,
but they've incredibly got close movement to semi-final.
A little too close for cover for the Falcons as they bump into each other.
They got to reset themselves from there and to the field.
The Ann already up a bump on one.
He forces the Falcons to rethink their strategy.
He's going to take a slow angle shot down and wide.
We're not going to try and force anything right now that just want to defend.
Instant challenge, just mix things up a little bit from Valkyrie.
It's so passive.
Not always nice, you're sitting back.
You're not going to be 3v3, but once you know what you're seeing,
just track back into net and wait for a misplay.
That's how they do get it.
Yeah, it's gonna have to wait for Swift to grab Boost.
He's trying to throw it over the top of Yan,
but he was quiet enough with the free jump
just to get the touch.
He misses the second that Swift is there.
The recovery's from Fury up.
That'd be very impressive.
In fact, Killers might have overcommitted here
if they've always won the huge Boost battle.
Boost starving up really is gonna give you
that crazy advantage here, at least in the 2v2.
Rwaz going for the straight challenge on Yan.
Even on nothing.
Happens to get the new spot in his favor.
The patient's breaking off, and the boost
still up to the other end.
Maybe they can play that same strategy.
Curia, 38 on the clock, and a tight game.
Falcons, push back to the ring.
30 seconds left.
2-2, Swift's going to go on the back.
Four kills to Fist, then Rwaz.
Hopefully he helps communicate it.
He did help him out.
Yan, just low.
They're in a tricky spot. They want that corner boost boost at a premium, but it is stripped up.
Five Falcons, Killers, Getzer, all asses up. He's low through Sian.
Gonna keep them all pinned. It's a four-first start for the camera.
Cumbery's looking for the follow-up. It's off target.
Swift. Also wanting to get involved. Sian's pushing him back.
Say hurry up. We need to attack.
We might have the last one of the game here, the last shot to get the lead in the series.
As it almost finds his way down the other end of few Hoos and ours.
We hit him over time.
A couple of nervous noises out there, but yes, in overtime indeed.
See who gets the first proper extension need. Overall.
Ball popped up in the air. Ruass trying to continue to follow it.
Yuri's plan to stop them. One at a time as they're able to get himself out.
Swing!
A rock touch from Ruass!
Let Curia find their way all the way through!
The air dribble bump, they're just isolating that last man on Falcons.
Curia get the lead in the series.
He got perhaps after that first game Falcons were just going to keep on elevating their own, their own play, but Curia.
And that time it was Swift.
Got 6-49 on their heads, two goals as well.
And the huge overtime winner, 2-1.
What do the Falcons have for us?
But these furriers just keep on attacking.
They look so confident.
They look like the team that's been playing all their lives together.
Oh, for sure.
They're just, truly just having fun with it.
And I feel like that is such an underrated mindset to go into things.
I know a lot of the times people realize you gotta just,
It's got to be full lock.
And strats, and all you can become.
But there is just something about Yan laughing and Swift
just enjoying himself.
It is setting them apart.
And you can almost feel like the pressure is getting
insurmountable for the Falcons.
And it is very clear that it is stressing them out.
A timeout has officially been called by the twins.
So we can see what are they going to do to really just
find that same place out that they had in game number one I've got to give some
credit to fury in South America I mean threes now twos I tell you what this
stocks were so low coming into worlds on this region fury up as well South
American two seed really performing all season long I came into this world to
thinking how on earth we got three South American teams one OCE team boy was I
wrong. South America. Back in business. They're two one up now in 2v2 as well against the Falcons
against the twins. Swift, Yan looking incredible together. I don't see why they can't just keep on
keep this ball rolling, keep the train rolling and roll the Falcons just clip their wings and head
to a Grand Final 2v2 Worlds Final against the winner of Zatow and SSG.
See what we get from them. This has kind of been the dream duo that everybody's been excited to see
which is out of the Falcons. Everybody was curious how far can the twins truly go in a duo event?
Ah, pretty far for Fury, I don't have a mind, I missed it, I'm not reading that enough.
Come here, don't be pretty far, I was about to say, no.
Fury, I could have had the best possible start, he's completely denying any momentum off the time now, Colvin.
I'm sure this Swift just, if I read it, if I get around it, it certainly looks like there's gonna be a free opening, Swift, I see it back, he's still,
That's not to open, that's just going wide.
Where is the last going?
That's going to be one new to Furia.
I need a second look.
What are we doing?
There's a time to book a van.
This is not it.
Furia, take advantage of the twins.
Just going way too far.
And find themselves in another lead.
Super early on.
potentially chew here up the kickoff. These strats aren't working at all. They've lost
Booster Alas. I don't know what the plan was there with the fake kickoff, began
just popped the straight to install his corner boost. Remember on the attack again,
dear Al. Looking so deadly. Against the Falcons. You saw the reaction from Swift
off that first goal. He's just smiling. He's looking so confident and he knows that
the Twins, they're not looking good at all. They've got him. Get back there, open
the community. It's another opening for Alas. Was back. They went 50 up to 50. Low
Boat booster, Ruas.
He's looking for a corner, looking for a demo.
He's not gonna get the corner all the demo he wanted.
And now, he can just walk it out.
Winning those 50s isn't gonna be too much
if they're not able to find themselves
into the net, the Falcons yet to find themselves.
Onto the scoreboard here, Ruas takes his flip,
plays the patient game, and you win!
Oh!
Two killers!
I mean, you felt incoming!
You were wondering, all right,
He's walking this up.
And what time is there?
The catch in base.
That's still a ridiculous pass.
He's flipped left.
Get up with the front right to get it across to his teammate,
do his two-oh and lock that play.
Putting so much pace on the ball to change
of angles from Falcons.
They got around that first man, and then there was good luck.
Good luck saving that.
So you get one-one.
So I've scored a line-up.
Smooth with a heavy first touch.
It might work.
How is he?
just didn't want to fully commit to the reset and now Gantt's getting chased.
Rwats is looking for the shot. Keles is pushing back and pushing this.
Fury of defense backs, which finally gets a hundred boost.
Rwats, ah, we're seeing a more aggressive
back and now certainly words go through the time at a once in a window.
These 50s keep on favoring Fury of the demos
going towards the panthers time and time again.
Feel like in an aerial battle, you'd be favorite.
The Falcons would be favoring the one with wings, but
These fellas from South America keep on taking to the sky keep on looking more and more comfortable or a wasp
As well as likes the 50 that's in my early flick. I don't want a chance as he taught it. Well, he has it
That's the second goal. Why would get convinced so early? I'm always worried about the bump and surely this way a little longer
so
Drop and you knew that trip was waiting in the wings to just respawn
try to throw a hand out
Just just have a hell nearing moment for the Falcons by their way through
Beautiful one goal lead into the second half of this game right here. We'll see if they can extend on it
Definitely a confidence booster though for the twins
One pops up, swift times that catch
very well the possession still continues to fall with the fouls.
It's nothing if you're playing a smarter to his game, which is what I was expecting.
Even there Swift had low boost, he had played it slow, so if you go back right at the corner,
I hope you get it slow as well to fight each other time to get the resources to grab boost,
to reinforce the defense.
Swift can track back, relaxes up and he's low and he's over committed.
And he has to track underneath, we kill his front there as well.
It's a crime play, it's a crime play coming.
It's fantastic for Furia, it's two-two and Swig just cooking.
Actually, disgusting, you said Furia is playing a smarter game and it is eminent.
Furia calculated their way to a tied game off the kickoff.
Yeah, takes the back-boost, lays it up to the middle, takes the first challenge.
He's doing this all on his lonesome.
We'll see when Swift comes into play.
Yellow's on-ball, early flick.
That beast is just so smart from Fury out.
They look so locked in as they're doing.
There's the shot on.
Killers make the relatively easy save.
And Swift now backs off.
He's got to buy time to yank.
Who has no boost.
When it's with challenge, he does so now.
Finds the loan.
If he won't grab the boost, killers up quick.
up quick. Yeah, not to meet this night. Forces to pop, forces to reset script.
Just to keep it out of the net. Minutes handling. Falcon still pushing. They're looking for the low 50s.
Brought us with the ground pitch off the fight to get the lead. Showing them exactly how it is done.
Fast enough all the way through the Falcons. Take back their lead just a minute to go.
Both Joys look absolutely locked by teams.
Showcase in their best, now Killers early. Shot for Yanu.
Had to use the assistance of the crossbar. In fact, now Killers has to give him a ball to Swift.
He's not the man you want, but the ball in his hands. He was looking for the delayed 50.
Just hold that second flick, but he didn't get the power he was looking for.
And now Killers has been farmed off and it was an early challenge. It's brisky.
Swift just had to get far along. The answer to demo though.
Rewas is coming back. Have a look at this. The Panthers just running at the Falcons right here.
Yan, looks for the 50 now,
he's out of position, Swift has been demoed,
Swift been demoed, the Falcons get a 4-2 lead!
The second time a demo on Swift has left that back end completely open
when Yan has pushed a little bit too far forward,
a pattern of ignition, did keep in the back of her mind for the Falcons.
Two goal lead now with 31, is a comfortable place to be.
He goes Yan, still time for Fury up, still time to come back, but they need a goal right here, right now, Reset to Swif, the fate, the shot!
Well a couple of games ago it was the Yan Show, and Swif just showing why Fury pits him up for 3v3 and why Yan said, you're coming with me for RLCS 2v2.
I spoke absolutely too soon on this team, it's never going to be comfortable against the Falcons, such a nice play on that sidewall there.
Falcons, gotta hold on 12 seconds of the clock, the end of the air has it split, use it, it goes for the shot, it's floating in front of the net, 5 seconds of the clock in the center, clear, clear, could be the thing that keeps the Falcons alive, but the ball is still in play.
Should be down though, should be down, and Falcons tie the series.
Let's look maybe Falcons 4-1, 4-0.
Silly me! Silly me for downing Furia.
We guarantee ourselves at least in Nioh Tokyo, yeah.
In the first 2v2, Sammy Farnall, ladies and gentlemen,
we're having a good time watching the action.
How fun is it, Rampano gonna be in front of the live crowd at Tiki's Arena?
Furia look fantastic, Falcons respond like we know they would.
Who wins the important go-ahead game five coming up?
A well-rounded performance, two goals a piece from Falcons.
Furia still looks so strong, Swift is looking ridiculous as well.
HN, and this is so high class rocket league, truly.
When Furia and Nina both entered the scene individually,
something that was always talked about was just how fast they can play and it was about who could do it
the cleanest and for a while it felt like Mina outclassed Furia's you know speed but right now
Furia is reminding them and truly at the end of the day they kind of invented it and it was theirs
to call their own at first they showed them the way and of course granted the Falcons they are
still them. The twins are them. And they're showing fury that they are not to be reckoned with.
Massive game. Massive game right here. Good to speak. These are an astral pitch coming out
from Killers early. Who wins the important game five? Who moves on to match point best of seven?
Don't forget we've had best of fives all day in the group stage. The 3v3 world championship. But
but now we're at the pointy end of 2v2,
straight into the semi-finals,
more Morty along, two of the best duos in the world,
and that's a big bump,
that's a big big bump coming through.
Killers rotates back in time,
as relax just got isolated in touch,
but someone's been advantageous,
because certainly positioning-wise,
it's the fresh they're applying on Furia.
How does Furia respond to that loss?
See here, definitely a couple of things clean up
You are curia, the biggest one to take Noda, who was, you know, Yan going a little bit too far forward and, of course, getting the demo on the Swift felt like a guaranteed goal for the Falcons.
It's curia taking another shot, he'll look for another one here.
Sillers plays this one down, curia trying to take that wall back, moves back, but Roulas gets under the same attic.
That's a pop-up.
That's a great space coming through from Falcons.
Swift. Just getting pumped off this. Not going to a one-on-one, a little cheeky one with the
Rwassim. And yeah, Swift is now back. You can see how quick the rotations come in from both
sides. Swift not much boost to work with, so his priority was to grab the corner
boost, but he has lost to Rwassim knew exactly where he was looking ahead towards the ball.
As the passback happens for Yan, I really like that play. Swift, reset. They've got to
Don't wait down here Falcons, it was interesting from Killers.
We'll actually get that corner booster spawn for a good time here so that we'll have to
play a little bit of defense against Fury up.
Just trying to use the expanses of the pitchwork of all the crosskillers with the little pop
over but if Fury played this well they'd have themselves possession.
In fact never mind.
Yeah, we're for the boost if we've got about the ball.
Now they get time to work, time to call.
And- Oh, it's a beautiful dog from Yen!
It's a pulp race at over one!
And Fyria grabbed the lead!
Anyone can cook.
And yes, he did.
Fyria from the other one!
This team truly, if you've been paying attention to Fyria throughout this entire day, you know...
Fyria has been on a tear, an unexpected one at that!
The air force killer's trying to ride the bombs!
He just stuck on that ball on that Pogre. He said it was perfection from here.
He just hung around like a bad smell.
Right on top of the ball and right into the Falcons net.
He's just been tested time and time again by the South Americans.
AC from Alas, he's going to look for a bump.
The shot on Ennis. We've already got someone underneath, so he uses the flip.
He knew exactly the danger that he was in.
he was in for a last has to go back with boosted.
Smells like Tomogatou again,
they're letting Fury out to grab boost
and now he gets another one of what he looks for the entry
with bomb killer saved to flip.
And there's some treacherous situations
for the boys in green right now.
Looking comfortable, but they've got the beat,
they've got the odds for this finish.
Killers got bombed, but he made the most of it.
Such a nice opportunity for the Falcons too.
After what felt very stressful,
A nice clean communicated pass-off between the Falcons
when Furia made the slightest of mistakes.
Now a tight game.
It's a high game right here.
In this semifinal.
Only four of the best duo's here in Diggies.
And that's a big mistake.
It's a big win coming through.
The first real major error from Yann.
It's just so tough to read the drop-down.
Where's it going to hit on the corner?
Where's it going to hit on that backboard or a wasp?
And an unassisted goal.
This is a semi-final, ladies and gents.
There's none of that lower bracket nonsense.
You lose this, you're going home.
You collect your 10K, but you won't
be playing in front of the crowd.
It's a bit too final.
Just over 90 seconds left.
Alcott's holding on to that one goal lead.
Looking to make a two right here, four shots from Killers.
But only two on the board, that one goal lead.
They desperately needed extended.
Furia on the prowl.
Shot taking forward, immediately stepped back.
Right now, Furia hasn't been able to find
the same level before.
Oh, no way, what a save!
What's a save from Killers?
You're last now, counterattack,
a lob at the face, beautiful.
Gains him big trouble, he's going to 50, Swift has to get back to all of the pops, exceptional!
Kill it!
Relax, cooking, 3-1!
Look at him!
Ross leaving that first initial touch on the ground.
Enough to kind of get buried in a scramble that sounds a little bit there.
Patience plays off for the Valkyries, a two goal lead now with just under a minute left.
The headline for that match point.
And that's it.
Joy to take out the World Champ Chilas is cooking now.
He wants one more.
Can he get the dunk on Swins?
This is Rolace here.
He does get the shot on.
He's gonna get the reset though,
but he might be gonna fake them 30 seconds left.
This is gonna be going five for the Falcons.
You can definitely tell, so especially with that double
can you see from the fury on there,
and now on the flip side of the field,
fury, I'm gonna try and find something,
make up for lost time and goals.
15 on the clock.
It's got to be too little too late right now you are well past miracle territory play out from maybe one on the road home
That's exactly what they're gonna try and do but falcon
Finding their way back with a scrappy
Game two and three
Respectfully, but they are back to their clean cells back to their clean selves indeed
An incredible game five coming out from Falcons
as Fury, I just don't have an answer right now.
I've got nothing, well they had nothing
at least in that game five.
We didn't see Squish get to work.
We saw Jan start to make a few errors,
a few mistakes as well in the defensive line.
We know the Falcons are absolutely relentless.
Yeah, you know, when the Falcons started to spot
that there were these moments
where Jan would go a little bit too far forward.
I love that they didn't even rely on that.
It was the next mission was just knocked Swift out.
He's too far forward.
It became way too easy after that.
And then Fury, I haven't quite corrected that in real time.
So I'm hoping they'll do so in the end
to maybe force that game seven.
But that's a very easy thing for them to be able to clean up
and really just get back into the momentum
that they had in the beginning of the series.
They were doing a great job of, as you said,
not over to meeting and passing the ball back,
making sure they're allowing time for their duo,
their teammates to grab boost,
but they just overcommitted the touch,
perhaps a little too aggressive offensively.
And they got punished on the counter attack.
You know, they're awas,
he's just gonna keep sitting in net.
He's gonna bait you in, he wants you to shoot.
He wants you to give you a look at the net,
perhaps expose and attack down the other end
to counter attack play.
Here we go, Neo Togio, do we head to Champions Field?
To the Falcons end it right here
and move on to the grand finals, the world finals.
for the 2v2, the 30th edition of RLCS 2v2.
It'll pop up from the side wall.
He will bounce as well after the swift.
It's furious.
They're gonna need to really be able to hold onto this ball.
That took the foul from Dick differently in this passing,
and they played it a little bit closer there.
Waited for prime opportunity to spot each other
and demo for the solo play for who?
I swear, I'm not gonna make him afraid of who!
For the lover!
Because he knows his mother's gonna be back just in time!
That's just the recovery, O'Wass doing so much work.
He dropped it down, trying to get it around, so if he doesn't...
He looks for the bump on Yan, man knew he had to commit early.
He didn't get clips, but it was a beautiful shot back post.
He was scrambling to get to that left side of the net.
And a beautiful shot in the end. No bump required.
But now a goal required if you're in a tight things up.
O'Wass looking for killer's preflip as well.
They are low boost. Swift looking for Yan. Throwing that one on Net.
The Falcons cross wings. Keep it out. Keep their one goal lead intact.
Shot just a little bit wide there. People save from killers.
Here comes Rue. Right now Furia.
I don't like you to say there, it's just scrambling to get possession of this ball,
but it's up again.
Big demo, but it's not going to stop with Yan's shot.
Still find his way through.
The sorority's on the line.
Objective.
That's so tough for Alwas, because he's expecting Yan to make contact with the ball with the
demo.
It's actually helped Furia, and he's just been tagged when he commits off the side ball.
Rolls in, and in the end it's a fake bit.
Yen want to contact with the ball.
The demo's helped out the Panthers, 1-1.
Killers are pedaling right now, Ruoc.
Big flick up through that backboard, and he collected one of that by Swift.
Yen ones out.
Killers and Ruocs willing to play time and space in the orange until an opportunity presents itself as a take a proper shot.
Nice dodge.
No swift.
They lost possession. Killers actually going back off.
He's just...
He's just shirked off that challenge.
Now he bit double clear from the twist. Killers is low boost as well.
And Swift, he just got hunting for boost.
He didn't want the close wall double.
He drops it down as Killers is underneath still 0.
In the tank, Muriel.
Bringing back that offense we saw in the previous place position from Yan.
More pitch is made to the back than that.
Killers wants the challenge, gets one, doesn't find two.
He has been bombed.
He's behind the bubble.
He entered a little bit of trouble in.
Swift has to get back.
Fury out.
He's working in tandem.
It's stressful, but that's the other way out.
Swift has to become with the Bulls not on target.
Zero-Wax goes to the corner.
Those off-target shots are going to hunt Fury out.
They've been able to get a handful of them,
where they just clear out past the south end,
but those shots being off working
are really slowing Fury down from being able to just
Grab onto a crazy lead, a slip, up into the air, challenge by the Twins, takes this ball to the mid.
Yam's gonna try and catch it and slow it down and he does. Reset twice, takes his flip, takes his time,
but even on low boosts the Falcons are prevailing.
Yeah, now it's face. Fate challenge from Rolass. Now he wants here to pop reset. It's a nice touch.
From Rolass, Killis has just lost possession though.
You can see the shimmy, the fate from Swift, he pops it up, not too much bruise just wants
a good 50 for Yan, Yan's not back, Yan's not back, where's he going, he's got no
boots, his falcons get the lead.
It's the same story every time.
You catch one a period of field, you peek and you notice Yan with his priorities on the
the wrong thing and the Falcons just laser towards the net.
It's 2-1, put this be it.
What do you have for us here?
Where's the connection that we saw earlier
on in this best of seven?
Maybe the Falcons, the first team, the first draw
to the finals, Rouras can't get back to this ball.
Switch, popping it up.
Killers wants it, he's got a fake challenge.
Rouras there, looking to help out.
Load first, nice bomb.
Killers in the wall are going to have to lurk around, they've got to defend for about a minute and 14 here as Burial are on at the attack, four shots and nothing to their name.
Re-Yan back on the other end, again Swift.
They need to challenge those two of the ground and a round and the inside looks back to Swift but everything is just too wide.
It's getting desperate. It's getting real desperate.
There's the first big mistake.
It's a wall! It's K2!
They found the one mistake.
Falcons don't know what happened, Biroas.
That's just popped it straight to the wall.
He wanted to. He was nowhere near it.
He can't blame Killis there.
It was a beautiful infield pass from Swift.
Yeah, nice shot.
Uria.
They refused to lie down.
And that's what Panthers like doing as well.
The bomb of the ring!
Oh, my God!
More killers!
I could have 4-7, what a goal to 4-7,
as well, can Furious deal this?
Can we get Jamf Mildred?
It's Jamf to the left side,
doesn't get the Flivius looking for,
but Swing is right there!
Swing!
Furious with the lead!
South America's best,
showing that power it is doing!
And we're 30-40 seconds from going home.
Oh, he now has 28 seconds from going the distance.
The final dance.
Falcons trying to tie it up.
What ends it right here on Neo Tokyo?
My goodness, do I want champ mill?
What a series.
How good is 2v2?
Ravens and Jens, we've got 15 seconds on the clock.
Roas takes to the skies.
He finds the box, but switches right there.
Switch is right there and kill us as low boost, no boost, five seconds now.
Gans up, they want seven, Furia.
Want to take back his right to the pointy end and we might just get there.
There it is.
Furia have done it.
And you can see it on their faces, the relief,
but also on the other end, the frustration from the Falcons.
2v2 is something special, man.
Game seven.
2v2 game seven.
First time we get a look right here on land.
Dickie Zerina, world championships.
2v2 world championships, the first iteration.
What more could you possibly want these teams delivering under the most
immense pressure. T-BAC spoke about a hundred K for first place but a 2v2 world
championship for our winning duo representing your region as well
representing your organization and brothers representing the family but
But I've got to get through these boys from South America now.
I will talk about it time and time again.
We spent years watching Fury in their region just play at a speed that we had not seen before.
Then the Falcons entered the scene and it was something beautiful.
This head to head is nothing short of intense.
Champions feel for a shot being a 2v2 land world champion.
Get your seatbelts on chat buckle up. We've got a big one here, and I might be falcons with the first goal of game 7
Team Falcons from one end of the field to the other
Beautiful flick over one and kill them as to what's all of the wild in that game
Give their team the opening lead
Tudor, Tudor, start for Falcons.
Game seven, it's about moments.
It's about who's going to make the most of your opportunity.
It's about who can make the least mistakes as well.
It was a big misplay for Furia.
We've seen their challenge game.
It's so impressive, all series long,
but they've overcommitted there.
An early overcomit.
Spell the side of what's the cut for Furia.
Can they respond right here?
Yeah, it was space.
It's going to take it up sidewall.
Takes it upstairs.
Low boost, reset, fake, pop, looks for the bump, gets the bump, gives you time.
Almost got two bumps out of the way on this one too, and Yann's gonna have to stop and slow it down.
Swift plays out in the back left.
Dangerous game, to carry this across the net like that with the Falcons this ready to challenge.
Killers might be the one to do it, the controls.
Thought would have been enough if you were able to carry them to the other end.
He's got the boost, he's got the pump as well, it's a double boost from Valkyrie.
Rift's in, I love the aggression from him.
With the reset, Rift pops up, where's Yan?
It's just a little too far across back post, but still it's Valkyrie's low boost.
Killers has a hundred.
Rolasta's got zero in the tank, but they are out.
They find a little moment to breathe.
The first 90 seconds, it's advantage to the boys in green.
Beautiful air dribble into the reset.
Katie, Yan, the 50-year-old running answer is no,
But you have plenty of time to try again.
Nice big clear here from the Belgians.
It's carried into the corner.
Swift taking that boost.
Should give them the resource to make the pass,
and they will catch it.
Their shot is wide.
The deck is open just off the court.
South of the market had no garrison,
but Swift is still in.
But out of the streets, it's been on the barbless swing.
It's been on the equalizer with Tyler in game seven.
Look at this! The Twins bunched up just enough for them to be a little awkward on the return!
And Fury takes full advantage of the situation!
Of course we're here, three minutes left.
Worlds 2 semifinal, Mina! South America!
Who stands the toss? Who rises above? Two minutes fifty!
One, one, yeah, back corner!
B-Squad has Rowaz, Killers is slow and low boost but he does get a huge fastback.
Nice little pop-up here from Rowaz, gotta play this amazing control.
Pass off over to Killers.
They can 50 off the back end, stays out mid and a nice new spawn.
Painiest favour, takes his time.
He'll cut him used in the scenario.
That halfway point is now in front of everyone's eyes.
Yeah, Flo.
The Falcons find it.
That's a massive touch from Sweet Yan with zero boost.
Rewas keeps him falling but he's low as well. He's going to have to look for a hundred at some point.
Swift skips the ball up to Killis. You can see the time being bought from here.
Rewas scoots corner 100g, watch why he actually fakes it. Looks for a pass, baby.
Swift, we're owing. Swift cuts it across, gets around the first man.
That's Rewas low, 50 kills back in time. Furia pushing, looking for that. Go ahead, goal.
Now he can work their way out.
Swift wants to attack straight away.
In fact, he's found the pop and
otherwise needs a hundred boost.
Swift right there.
Pass back to Yan.
Yan's made one.
It's back to Swift.
They missed the golden chance.
You absolutely cannot panic in those scenarios.
Furious anxiousness is going to cost them Yan with another opportunity.
Take it away but Swift will give it back.
It's a big challenge from Swift.
Yan, does he have space?
He had a bomb so he opened it, he wants to open it, he can get back in time!
It's a 50, narrow west with a 101!
Oh, squeeze! Could this be it?
He misses the flake, that's huge!
This panic is going to cost somebody, but whoever can remain calm enough to take a proper shot
could find that golden goal!
Just over a minute to go here, the falcon's swarming in the fury of half off the ceiling!
Killer has to go for the 2v1, but the challenge comes through!
It's beautiful play that second man just cutting back,
relaxes on a slow rotation,
kill us to the wall, wants to, Yance right there,
it's a nice pop, as Yance instantly jumps,
has boost to work with 50 seconds.
Could it be a case of next goal wins?
Next goal could send one of these teams
to the world's 2v2 final.
We've got 40 seconds on the clock.
Who's gonna make the first mistake?
Who's gonna blink first?
Will it be the Twins?
Will it be the boys from South America?
Kill us, mix up a huge number.
Kill us in the air with Happening to work with,
Swift is on the other end, waiting.
The reset is on the goal line, and it is saved.
The Twins rush themselves back.
You see Killers rolling.
They go for the shot, but it's dead ball.
Furia are on the other end, off the field.
How is Yammer covered?
How has he got back in time?
How have Furia not conceded?
It's patting through both teams.
Swift to the wall, 10 seconds.
Do we get game seven overtime?
Could it be Furia?
Yam pumping it up.
Killers is in with the 50.
Roas underneath, I think we might be going the distance.
Roas, up top, script with the bridge, up, ball down.
Game seven over time, this is it.
Absolute cinema to send somebody to the first ever finals.
In this side, bitch gives possession to killers.
Take this, guys, and take this, boy!
Falcons to the world, 2v2 finals of 2026.
Six, it took seven games.
It took a golden goal, and a golden moment
that they have soared their way through to the big dance.
The highest level of 2v2 racquet league
has been shown in front of our eyes.
Fury up.
truly cannot put their heads down on this one they showed that they still have it in them that they still can compete at the
highest the highest level but the Falcons just a step above when it comes to that patience and cleanliness of synergy
i'll tell you what how good is 2v2 rocket league south america well played to them fury of it
It's the boys from MENA. It's the Falcons through to the final. They play the winner of San Anato, taking on space station gaming.
It went to game 7. It went overtime. 2v2 is here to stay and the Falcons are here for the Grand Finals.
Let's head down to the floor. Ripley for an interview.
There it is, of course, Falcons taking the win there, but it was not easy.
I think everyone on the Caster scene analysts had predicted you guys to win, but it was
definitely right down to the wire.
Did you guys expect it to go close?
What was causing the difficulties for you guys as the favorites?
First of all, congratulations.
But the people involved in this project
were saying that everyone expected you to win the match
and easily win against the Momentary and Fury.
But it turned out that there were some problems
or difficulties that were going through this match.
So, you told us about the difficulties that were going through it.
What made the match this close?
First of all, thank you.
Yan, Sothar, and the team played well.
They were good, honestly.
But, yes, everyone expected us to win the sweep.
But I don't know, maybe because of the day I'm tired, or I'm talking about myself as a liar,
I don't know, maybe because I feel like the game is weird, but thank God we can win,
because the day is very tired.
because the long day, the results that we wanted didn't happen,
but still it was a very close game.
Now, absolutely it was.
You still came out as the victor.
Now, I've asked this question to you guys before.
It's really cool to play with your brother.
Usually it's on threes, but now you're going to do it in 2v2.
That must be more intimate and much more fun
and really cool to be able to do, right?
in the next stage.
Honestly, I feel weird.
My brother and I played many games,
the first time in the Pouletoose,
and it's nice to have him in the Pouletoose,
and hopefully we can talk about Poula later.
It's going to be a great thing.
And I'm just quick question prediction here for the next match. Is it going to be Zen and Atoh?
It is the predicted result, but that's not to say that you should underestimate the
representatives of SSG. They are still a strong duo. They can't do it.
So you shouldn't be surprised if they do, but it should still be Zen and Atoh.
win again. It's a very nice answer, but I agree. It should be Sandro Nato.
It should be that if you have a response. Well, only one way to find out what that's
going to be in. To do that, we play the next match. One more 2v2 on its way.
I want to try and experiment.
Alright.
To help you unbecome your parents, I want you to try a game called Rocket League.
Ooh, is it a puzzle like my crossword?
No, picture soccer.
Okay.
With a car.
What do I hang my feet outside the window?
No, not your car.
But you said think of-
It's a video game.
Oh, okay, I get it.
Where's the cartridge?
No, it's an online thing.
Is there a joystick?
Not like the ones you're thinking of.
But I need to get some quarters, right?
No.
Go in the cartridge.
Again, no cartridge, but you'll need a username.
Username, huh?
How about Keith underscore 9914?
The bathroom coat?
That's the only number I can kind of remember easily, so.
At Sargento, we believe your breaks deserve balanced breaks.

A promise you can taste.
Don't hold back, cause you won't depend on what it is that you should do, so I'll make
a heart.
Don't hold back.

Read that
I
That one a time when you're back to the wall
So I say letter, my aim move is small
Money grows from my intuition
I just bought a crib, that's my first addition
People hate it when you claim a vision
But I use a static when I hit ignition
Hungry moves so fast that in a minute I'll stay fresh to death
I'm in the main condition
Forge the heat no matter where I've been
It'll give me any place and it'll be a kitchen
This time we floated the top
I'm on a wave and it never gonna stop
I hit a green and we run in the clock
24 seconds, I step like a shot
Permanent state in the floating block
Don't step to me when I get too hot
I'm an angel of life and it's all you got on the top
No, we ain't gonna fall
It's an obsession that happy you call
We hit it automatic, never stop
Only got one step to do it all
I'm from the bottom, I hate what I saw
I couldn't watch, so I look how to crawl
Then when it's all in your back to the wall
So I say later, my aim move is small
Homemade flow, I'm a PVC
There ain't one player out doing just like me
Heart rate froze, shit the EKG
I hate wasting time, no eventually
when nobody's here but I ain't feel the stress I know it's meant to be 30 beats I'm on a killing spree
I made every song in my discography yes every cent every dollar I ain't trying to listen to a

never bother be a self made now shut up to my father yeah I'm the top and we ain't gonna fall
it's an obsession a happy you call we hit an automatic never stop only got one tactic to do it all
I'm from the bottom, I hate what I saw
I couldn't walk, so I learned how to crawl
That one that saw when you're back to the wall
So I say later, my hate move is small
7 games of 2v2 Rock League is what it took for the Falcons to take care of Furia but
they have done so and the Twins will play for the title of 2v2 Rock League World Champion.
Heartbreaking game seven over time basically a kickoff right there for furia who battled they were underdog zone into this match
But they showed
Why they are here swift
I thought had a phenomenal series a lot of great air dribble bumps going for team bumps into passes as well
But unfortunately they felt just yeah, I think Jan scored the most
I think the roughly go with the most swag I've ever seen
Little that like a little fake jump catch into play that was ridiculous
But Jan has got the unfortunate history now of being in the first ever 1v1 landmatch for LCS and losing in game 7.
And then the first ever 2v2 landmatch for LCS and losing in game 7 as the underdog both times.
I mean he says unfortunate and I'd say his assessment towards the abilities of the fighter even makes it to this point.
And I'll say he feels like he could have won it man, it really does.
It does.
You know what?
Both.
Both.
Oh yeah, a fairer did be falconed than 3s as you did, didn't it?
They didn't falcon.
They did.
If they did, then they'd still have a lot of stables left on three.
I can't stand to get stuck in the threes.
It felt like a minute.
No, I'm taking back.
Anyways, what I'm hoping to make it is, 2B2 is very volatile.
That really kind of went out of the way.
And if Swift and Yan win that kickoff right there and overtime,
they probably come out victorious.
A kickoff is just an opportunity.
They both went for a pre-all series long.
They're going for quite aggressive kickoffs,
which is standard stuff for the meaner players.
They always cheat so close.
So if you're not going to cheat as close as them,
then you might just get beaten to the ball.
Sometimes you can maybe trick them with a delay and get a big win.
That's how it goes.
And with that, Fury is eliminated from the tournament.
But what a battle to get here.
Only eight players in the entire world
were good enough to be at this point.
They were two of them, and they battled all the way there
on Champions Field.
Back and forth.
Drop that first game, and then this back.
Winning two.
Wow.
That is such a good match.
Into the backflip.
The catch is so cold.
I love it.
So nice.
And that's what you get.
You have a little extra space and you get a little swagger on the catches.
The Roas had a great set as well, whenever he needed to hit the shot, he did so.
Yeah, I also like how they had to move behind him.
I don't know why they didn't have their coach behind them.
Yeah, I was like, I just didn't expect that.
Even in the 1v1, I don't know if we don't have all their coaches on us.
Did that somebody to talk to us baseball?
I think it's kind of OP as well, with all the different kickoff strats.
Yeah, something I think some of the coaches could really help out with.
Especially, yep.
Yeah, it's something that some of the 3v3 coaches do as well.
they just call kickoffs or sometimes make it suggestion.
Some of them don't, this is very, you know,
you know, hit or miss there.
But in ones, especially, I think calling kickoffs
as a coach is kind of OP.
Yeah, I mean, you have that much time
and you have somebody just thinking,
but I naturally really mentally kind of note taking.
Not taking every single one.
Exactly.
And that's not like it.
Exactly.
And like three is pretty fast pace,
but basically in this two with two set,
you go right here.
Clear.
This is bot.
Yeah, try to give it time.
It's just too much power though.
Swims on the back boys in decent position.
Both of me not enough offense is too good.
Two great teams, four great players.
Only one team can come up.
Victory possession.
Yeah, and look at the kickoff course.
There was only four in the whole set,
but the most important goal at the end game seven over time
goes to Falcons and take it down.
It's one of those things where you look at this, you go,
oh cool, this was it went as expected,
but this was so close.
This could have gone the other way so easily.
Anytime you get to game seven over time,
you had two fantastic competitors
where one of them just had to win.
I mean, Falcon's last two, that's the seven series.
It's two between one to game seven,
when game seven against Terakai and Ghazi.
They're out there to qualify for this,
and not in one game seven here.
And now listen, maybe they might go game seven,
against our next opponent, whoever that might be.
Imagine.
Ooh, that'd be something.
Imagine.
Now, we do have to quickly intervene or step in here
and say there is an update to the 3V3 World Championship
bracket.
There was a graphics error before,
and we caught it during that 2V2 match there.
So we are updating it as soon as possible here.
The players have been informed.
Everything is set to go for tomorrow.
But we do have new matches down there and around one gives. Yeah, I'm looking at that bottom match
We got first killer versus Zen those two carries on their squads
We're gonna see if we get maybe just a top five plays out of those two in that match alone
That one's gonna be a lot of fun and then we have a little bit of a two-to-two rematch
We got Falcons versus furious. So correct. I'm gonna have to battle again tomorrow
All the teams are in the same quadrants as they were earlier
So the earlier incorrect rockers have it updated
The teams are in the same quadrant of four as before the the first round matches in the playoffs will be different
And as this more accurately follows the seeding that was laid out it does turn it originally so we will see that bracket played tomorrow
We got one more 2v2 match here on the day before we close out Thursday and get set to invite in rocket league fans to
Thickey's arena to see one of these grand finals going down the team Falcon sitting there waiting in the finals this match will be
Played on Saturday
It's time to get one of the most dominant runs we've ever seen continuing on here. No miss. Just fake a zen
I don't taking on reveal and Zach
Oh, I wonder if the trash talks gonna come out with reveal and Zach to see if they get under their skin
But this is the greatest two teams in the world then and at oh
Should win this but it's anyone's game
I mean Johnny
This is one of those matches where you wish where you just wish we had a different set of their side right in front
and they try this parking and
chirping that might get a little
more edge could they might be
able to round them but it's still
that far apart. Well for the
people at home Johnny boy who
don't know the history between
particularly Zen and the
space station gamers. How far
back does this go? It goes way
back to every time they've played
in their initial seasons with
Zen alongside my community
exotic against SSG SSG were
the game. It's a lot of it.
There's definitely some chat
out of the game as well. It's
all juror. Well, the game is
being played, though, you know
when behind the scenes, there's
nothing so I don't have any
like secret sauce to give you
because there isn't any but. Yeah
in game, they definitely aren't
best friends or friend remotely.
You know, close to friends, and
now he's got another chance to
win over his big rivals. And I
don't think you need anything
from behind the scenes to make
this spicy. What's happened in
when they've taken each other down in previous events like Raleigh,
the trash talk that gets thrown around by these players, it's pretty fierce.
And they put on a show.
Yeah, last time I think it was in Paris, Vitaly took out Space Station
doing the crying face at them and all that.
Obviously, that's only with Zen, but Space Station is here to play.
And obviously, you've got to give a little bit of the chemistry side
to Zach and Reveal. Obviously, playing three's together, playing tons of scrims.
Zen and Atto probably haven't had a lot of time to play together.
They might not have had that much time to play together, but listen, it doesn't matter though, because even when it goes chemistry wise, one side, sure.
I was on skill-wise, other side.
And I was also going record-wise, other side, too.
Right now, we're talking about revealing up, boys.
I mean, they're also, I think the big thing for them, because I truly think they are the best two-team in NA, and they deserve to be.
For sure, yeah.
The big thing for them, though, is mentally bouncing back.
They had two tough losses today over in the 3-3 setting.
Three, three games on, though, they had one loss yesterday, maybe.
It was one loss yesterday.
And in one loss today, Carmine and Falcons, respectively,
seriously, they probably feel like they should have
came out on top with.
And so now they really have to bounce back and lock in
against the best team.
You were talking about the coaches.
Xperia is here, sitting with his team.
He gets a chair.
Easy to hit.
No, there's a free chair there.
He's in an add-on.
Hey, they each have a coach.
Neither of those coaches is back there with them.
So I wonder if it was like, I mean,
the drama in game between these guys
It's just so interesting to watch up for that. So it's not really a part of this as the KC representative of no miss
Just fake but yeah with Zen and the space station guys
There's been you know moments we're looking at the post match was there a fist bump there was through the lack of a fist bump
What's happening?
So we'll be paying very close attention after the game as well
But there the conversation behind the scenes about this match has I'll be completely honest with you guys from what I've heard
Haven't been asking a lot of people about this. It's not been who wins
It's been do reveal exact take a game that's been the question that people are sitting on the fence on it
There's no question about who's winning none. I'm also not really
Thinking about who's gonna win this either. I think it's more about do reveal exact take a game
I'm not I'm not trying to you know here. I think was that an actual did an EU against everybody
They swept off skiing nests. So I mean, there's even everybody can anybody get a game
One game in that term is the most dominant run in RLCS tournament run history.
We'll see if they can keep it going.
Let us know who you think is going to win in the progressive fan vote.
Johnny, you made it clear, but do the honors.
Who you got?
I have to go.
No, it's just fake.
And I agree with you.
I think revealing Zach is the best two steam in N.A.
But Zenonato, I think are the best two steam in the world.
And I would say the same thing if they're playing against the Furia boys
or the Falcons boys, it would be the same question.
Can anybody get a game off them?
Space station.
I think Zach is the split two MVP of North America.
I think they get two games. I think it'll be closer than people will think because of the offensive presence of space station
They're gonna try and attack incredibly hard
It is gonna backfire miserably in a few of these games
But I think they can still scrape by and get to but it is in a natural all the way
Faith that faith as a G as a G
They have talent
Just come down to it who's the best player in the game
All right, who hit 3K in the Mar?
Who went 44 in the Mar?
Okay, that's all I'm gonna hear.
That gets stuck against him.
You paired that guy that you described, the best player in the game with the highs in
the Mar and 2s with the most physical player on the pitch in the entire world right now
as well.
I mean, you said he's not part of the Bs.
You might be part of the Bs.
Not who was ranked 2 by the way, when Zed was ranked 1.
He was ranked 2.
200 points behind.
Oh yeah, he was ranked 2.
I also have no misjust fake on this one.
I do think they are the favorites.
We have space station on one side.
We have the combo vitality calming
court on the other side for these teams.
And as you kind of come up for them,
even the fates believe it will be Zennanato playing
against the twins in the grand finals.
It's going to be rough because I feel like what they do so well
with Zennanato is just they play defense so incredibly well.
It's going to be hard to break.
This seems almost generous, but can they prove them right?
But space station, they've been around for a long time.
They've got a lot of fans.
And these guys have a lot of weight on their shoulders.
The Falcons wait for the conclusion of this contest.
Who will take them on for the title of 2v2 Rock-a-League World Champion?
It's no misjust fate versus space-station gaming.
It's the 2v2 match you've actually been waiting for.
And it's only two players you've actually been waiting to watch.
Zen and Apto.
It is definitely David versus Goliath here.
Zach and reveal are gonna try to take more than just a game off.
44 and 1 on their run through EU.
But early on we do see an opportunity there for SSG,
but man, this is going to be crazy.
This team is the one that everybody's
been talking about, Derby, Zen and Atto,
seeing what they did in Europe, the most dominant region
historically, and they dominated that region on their own.
Even outside of the tournament, watching them play
ranked together is just ridiculous.
One of the most popular clips we saw was Atto
pre-jumping a psycho from Zen.
These two are, they were talking about chemistry,
trying to get the advantage to space station.
I don't know, I feel like Xen and Anato
might be stuck in the link in these two retools,
but so far, space station put a couple shots on
and threatening as a fake challenge from Reveal.
Doing okay so far in this opening minute,
Xen with a nice catch on the reset underneath
and Xen will stop first.
And this one sneaks its way through,
I think the last man there, Reveal,
was expecting Xen to at least get a piece of that ball,
Revealed, thrown off, that that got by him so cleanly.
And it is Zen and Ato that strike first.
And I will say, Jorbi, what Zen did in his rookie season
with that perfect split into the World Championship,
a lot of pros also heavily respect 2v2 success.
A lot of players make their name in 2v2.
So a 2v2 World Championship title for Zen,
I think would mean so much, especially as he's trying to build his resume to maybe become the greatest player of all time.
At least, uh, that we've seen up to this point.
Really not been much question of it lately, but Xen has been playing one of the best, if not the best player in the world, regardless of his team's results.
Xen sends this up to Ato.
Two squared up on the 50.
Trying to force it.
So he says he'd get the boost in the midfield, reveal.
We'll try to jiggle it.
Zack avoids the buff, falls the reset, wave landing, shot to the top, Barnard, and it bounces off!
Reveal got the demo to open the space, but it bounces out, and the third man of the woodmills comes through for no miss, just fake.
Another good chance, and you're starting to see the demo gameplay that SSG has in their pocket, but this one breaks through again!
The defense bamboozled that so slipping this ball underneath and you can see that Zach
Just jumping a little bit too late simple ground double there for Hato
It's too difficult to handle and I mean could have been a tight game review with that demo
Zach Kupachan for the top left corner that was their chance at it
Can't think about it now
And he'll say, Spaceship getting some good pushes in the blue half, great pop.
Reset from Zag, got revealed at Spaceship on the board.
Very nice reset here, Zag carrying it the full distance.
Beautiful pop, sitting behind it as well.
That forces Zed to get the ball underneath Zag.
If he tried to hit that up too high, Zag had the angle covered,
maybe could have jumped the ball in himself regardless.
He was gonna try to force a nice rebound.
Very good play from Zag.
And SSG are hanging in there, this is not as one sided as the desk might have to lead you to believe.
Not at all.
Zen going for the bump there.
Snack avoids it with a full tank of boost.
That's a follow back play.
Zen ready for anything reveal, wanted to give him there, but reveal won't just challenge everything.
This one knocked away as well.
Snack trying to take it right back, lets it bounce.
Good read by Atom. Very good read.
He's going to hover behind it, trying to let Zen come in Zen.
We'll boom it.
Keep the defense busy. Keep them low on boost.
It's Ack, full field again.
And when you do have DAS on your team, I'm sure you can add that play to your playbook quite easily.
B-0-1.
Slew this one across.
Atom, Wingsley gets back onto the ceiling.
Oh! Beautiful play here from Atom.
Gorgeous shot, Atto, that tip lands on the ceiling, gets behind it, gets that flick, throwing
Tentac off, and his brilliance from Atto, I love how he's into it, Sandy, you see Sandy,
absolutely popping off on it.
And their dangerous opportunity here for them is just vague, and as Zen goes for the shot,
rebound is cleaned up.
They're starting to power up, Jormie.
Then hit this like a high-ball bat.
Bam.
And good luck putting that into a safe spot, Zach.
That's how it just locks it over, too.
And the rubber ducky throwing insult into space station.
No misjusty.
Pulling ahead.
That's how it's going to lob that down.
Reveal tracks to keep it close.
There's the demo.
Zach also chasing Zed around.
Reveal with the 50.
Cality for SFG bringing them back in it.
That's one way you can get yourself back into the game.
Get just below for your entire opposition.
Demo win the challenger, and Zen having to avoid everybody.
Good try on the recovery, but it was too little, too late,
and too much momentum.
They still need to back.
The double diagonal kickoff here.
Zack will play up onto it, but 50 Zen getting there
a little late, which helps him win it.
It's a little bit beauty versus the beast placed
half right now.
SSG battering their way through with Boxed Devos. No miss just fake showing us those beautiful mechanics
talk about
Now this no miss just fake team like 44 and one. It was not easy for space station
And it's a multiple game or a multiple series go the distance
looting against
Cheese and talk to get here believe that one went six, but Daniel and these both went seven to get right before that
It was a lot harder for them to get to this point.
I don't know.
It's a big win.
Not going to get it.
Reveal is to move around the corner.
Reveal, setting it up.
Zack, you saw he was low on boost.
It had to be a perfect opportunity for him to go for.
Now he has to punt it away as his teammate
ground the crunch back around.
Oh, good power through by Zed.
He's going to take an airborne.
Looking for the defender.
Going for the 50 instead.
And that is the right call.
Zed doing a great job here spotting out
what the defense was giving him.
He doesn't even have to touch it here to reveal.
He sees him coming across.
Also wants to make sure he doesn't hit it into Zen,
and that was probably the only option that he had
when it came to hitting the ball.
So a great job from Zen, closing off every single option
for reveal.
This is where it really gets difficult for space stations.
Got the pitch to begin with.
But every time Zen or Atto get much clearer, it's on the ball.
There's so much they can do with a reveal, with a breezy.
Trying to get the 50 works out back to Zach.
Very quick, back to the ball.
Xenonato, letting him in so easy.
Xenon the dribble, let the defense hit it back to him.
It's the reset, pushes forward.
Zach, keep it out of a dangerous spot.
The time taking away.
No miss, just fake with some nice shots.
And they have a very impressive game.
5-2 victory over SSG. So far, this 2-0 living up to the light.
They opened in two minutes. We're close.
They were keeping it within a score, within two scores.
Even finding a way to almost tie the game early on,
had that ball not bounced out from the top left corner.
But then, Zatow just took over Zen,
getting the top honors almost getting the foul.
We're going to see high points in 2-2,
which these players are just going to happen.
And this play right here from Zen,
And then you get a reset on top of it.
I mean, that kind of controls simply immaculate.
Space games were able to fight back a couple of times,
keeping the 50 on the side wall here,
and this is where he just completely blocks and reveal out,
and reveal that you're only going to get dumped on that place.
So, things going exactly as expected so far in Game 1.
Yeah, but we did see glimpses of what SSG can do.
They landed a few key demos, opened up the goal line,
Rable to get a couple.
They're keeping it close in the at the start of the game before we saw Zen and Ato start pulling away and
You know it is really impressive what they can do on ball
You saw Zen even that play that being able to not only win a 50
But keep the ball so close on the side wall that you can then begin a threatening air dribble
That is very difficult to do especially against high caliber players like this
So and then also the crazy flicks that we saw the back flip shot as well
Yeah, and the second goal right off the bat. He didn't see it
Gonna be difficult for space station
reveal
So lead it for his effort to cheat up. Hopefully got a good 50. He did not
Just like that four seconds in
That's how no miss just fake smart from Zen there as well
Just to instead of going for a touch on the ball to immediately demo the last defender back knowing that's how to get that shot
Great start to the game. Ato also sweeping the line. Now retreat back.
This ball is putted down by Zac. Back pass to Zed. Zed passed one. 50 against
revealers. Well how is he 50ing so cleanly now? The fake play. He was going for it all.
He really wanted to stop once for it. This is a chance for Zac to reveal bumping Zed.
Trying to shovel him out. And Zac just back. He's a little more poppy. He didn't get it.
Now here comes Atto rolling, dribbling, Bump, score in!
Two-nup it!
So revealing, didn't have much boost.
We're trying to make up a couple small paths
in case Atto goes high,
and Atto just pushes it forward, goes for the Bump play,
secures the goal, high percentage play from Atto.
So precise, no misjusting showing you
that they are the real deal.
They'll whip it down, field, second will score again.
Every single time I touch the ball, they're fine to go.
How does this happen?
It's got no moves, just enough to get up to that.
Literally, what, a small pad?
And Atom still hits him on the numbers.
And full faith there.
I mean, just fully believe Atom will get the right power.
I just need to be right here, downfield.
No problem.
This one is looking bad.
It was looking good for a moment, but I feel like Zach didn't have much boost to make any adjustments.
He's a little too eager on that.
You know Zach? Going for a 50.
Oh, does Duncan at where is Reveal? Reveal a little bit too far out.
He came up quickly, but wasn't really anywhere to go with it.
Ato knocks the ball away, Zach.
Not able to handle it, and he's not making the same.
He needs the post to do it for him.
Reveal has the air dribble, but he can't get over.
Zend and Ato.
Reveal will steal this boost.
Ato gets this hit, the out of the Zen,
and he does look like nobody can follow this up either.
Zend just rolls it right back to the corner.
Reveal, and just can't handle the ball.
It's always right back to Zend.
He sets it across again.
Reveal needs that corner, who gets it,
but he loses the 50 to Atto and he'll run back into the ball.
On the 2, here comes Zach.
Hold the flick by the wall,
and the Atto takes it right back.
Good response by Atto.
Gets the challenge now, has the boost, has the reset as well.
Might as well go for a second one,
even though he already had one.
He didn't even use it.
Just maintain control of the ball and stay close to the ball.
Okay, oh, revealed.
Just didn't have any boost and was immediately challenged anyway.
Some good ideas for space station, but oh, Zathro, can't quite find it.
Zendith, that'll last me.
He got a little bit of a challenge, but they've got to go in.
And it will for space station.
And that is a big goal for SSG.
This is not an insurmountable lead that no misjust fake have.
Really nice play here for SSG, and at least get on the board here.
We'll see how they manage kickoff.
Kickoffs have not been going well for him so far.
No, it's just been going straight back to Zathro.
This one goes back to Zack in the corner.
That's how he'll be first to meet him.
Reveal's already way downfield.
And so, still lead it.
And then that's how he got the lead.
He responds right back on the ball.
Got stolen by Reveal.
Zack diving into the stop.
Zack next up hits it hard.
That's how he's ready for that.
He's got to do a two on one.
And there he goes up.
And Reveal recovers off the attempted bump from Zack.
Gets the save.
Now Zack has the ball.
And he goes through one player, set, Atom.
Going to come back across.
He's still trying to hold onto this.
That's great defense by Reveal.
But now Atom sees an open net.
He's going for it.
Zach from behind is able to get a tip.
The field again.
The give and go.
Intercepted and cleared downfield.
SSG's defense is playing very well.
A little bit more in the offensive department.
Atom going to play with the ball.
Another demo.
Uh-oh, look back to trying to recover Zed with a reset.
That was going to be a tough angle, no matter who you are.
Zed will force the ball down to field to field right behind him.
This would be difficult to actually press on the blue half.
I'll tip back down, Zed.
Launching upfield.
This is space for Zed.
Zed is going to go for a big boom.
Zed and Atto, both jump, but we get control of the ball
regardless.
Zed keeping it close.
This is a station.
I don't have a lot of time here.
I know they want to wait for the...
That's what happened when you went 2-1.
Something dangerous is going to happen right there.
And it just goes...
Zen will score again.
Space Station in her in the orange hat.
Some people will tell you, don't pass in 2v2.
You'll just throw off your teammate.
Well, Zen and Atto, they are operating at a different level.
They are finding each other out there on the field.
Great pass.
Nice shot to punish SSG.
And the scoreline continues to creep up.
Another roll-off kickoff, big save from Reveal.
But we only have a minute left.
Reset now off the ceiling plate, broken up by Zach.
It's not possible for space stations,
but they'll need to score real quickly.
Reveal up to set, and it's just too difficult.
You got to work extra hard eight days a week
to score on this team, and the crossbar ruins your day.
Reveal challenging from behind, Zed.
Has a look to shoot, but instead, just place the time game.
This one will go all the way back as well.
Then should be able to have it.
We'll pass it over to Azo.
Azo, reset on the catch.
Reveal.
Given it's his Azag, Zero Boost,
boom off the backboard, and Zen.
Wow.
What a reset into an air dribble.
It's just ridiculous, Zen.
Showing off those mechs.
Another chance to score here.
Whoops, Zen.
Not making contact on the ball,
but the only 10 seconds left.
Don't miss just fake.
Feel like they got this one in the bag.
I'm going to jump there from Rufiel at the end, but get too little too late.
Can anybody take more than one game?
Oh, no miss, just fake.
And that one game they lost was the very first Swiss game they played in the European Open for 2v2.
It was the very first match after that game.
Ran their way through that whole tournament, and they're running their way through Zach and Rufiel.
Unbelievable streak of dominance for no miss just fake
Johnny boy said on the desk the conversation
That I've been hearing is will they get a game? Well, maybe they were right
Yeah, it has not looked pretty for space station
You thought maybe in the first two minutes of that first game there might have been a chance
And I mean there was one that I felt like really encapsulated the struggles of space station
I haven't where they finally get an angle on the net and then
Reveal has like no boost to try to shoot or Zach has no boost to shoot it as a floater and it bounces up
Crossbar and out and they can't even buy a dollar. The ego is not that first base station
The Zen and Azo have all the money in the bank time out for Zach and reveal
He's kind of taking an extra breath here. What do you do James? If you're if you're Zach and reveal
The demos don't work
Zen's catching the ball off his own backboard in a reset and make me look silly winning 50s on low boost
He's getting tipped
It feels like that right now what we're seeing is Zen and ato. They are working together
You you see the passing plays that they're finding each other
On ball whereas you see for SSG a lot of their teamwork is off ball
They're they're trying to let the other go for demos go for bumps create space that way so that the player with the ball
Can try to make something happen
Meanwhile, it's just been a beautiful game for Zenonato.
They maintain control of the ball so well.
They're fiftying the ball so well.
If, you know, we've seen a few times where Reveal's trying to give him space,
trying to stay on the back wall, see what happens.
Well, that is spotted out immediately and that is punished by Zenonato.
And so, you know, sometimes it feels like there's nothing you can do.
Yeah. I mean, there was one where like they just conceded the midfield to them entirely
and we're waiting for them to push and that's how we're kind of sitting there like okay we're
going to take our time if you're going to keep inching towards your own back wall and then
they scored on that opportunity and yeah I mean we saw so many when even when space station had
the boost advantage didn't matter they were still losing 50 space station need to pull some tricks
out of the hat try to steal the game away right now because it looks like there's a clear difference
As Reveal goes for the flick to start, they get the kick off, Zack will pop it up, huh?
Keeps the space, pass it front back to Reveal. Reveal, catch on the reset, trying to control, steal some booze.
Zack is the whole way back though, gotta be careful, it's so easy to give your teammate back in a 2 on 1.
That's not what you want to see when you're up against Zen and Atom.
Absolutely right, Jarvie. Don't want to give them possession.
I want to give them space, that's it.
Off for the solo play here, teammate with demo got the reset, pushing towards that end, gets it through!
He's just too good, pops it off his own back wall, but beyond his own third, an extra little touch to get the reset.
Hits underneath it, and sack even.
That was in position to make that save, I mean that's exactly what you're expecting.
It didn't matter force the flip out, force the shot, but the Tad couldn't get there in time.
They attempted.
Ordeal on the ball.
Maybe like the fake doesn't work. He's not going to go off the ball.
You're going to have to force an off of it with a 50.
Don't low.
By one.
Honestly, good try.
Get a ball.
But they continue to fight each other. You even see that little back pass.
Little touches they trust each other so much they're able to get each other that ball and take space
And then be so good mechanically when they aren't given a little bit of space
Seven had to look unstoppable at the moment
Feel I'd have a chance 27 for the reset. This is the bump
Zacken takes the challenge didn't get the boost
That gets it
Time to catch that is right on top of them now. They're trying to really close the space down
Heal, heavy touch, Ato gets there, Zell be next up, Zack 2-4 back.
Someone's got a close on here, Zen.
Time for the phone.
Didn't happen, Ato steals the food, Zen's on the far side, and Zen wisely decides to get back to his own corner.
The death obsession is giving back, but no misjusting.
It feels like I said she just can't get her hands on the ball.
Oh, Zen.
Oh, man, that is absolutely magnificent stuff, buddy.
From the back corner, gets the reset.
Uses a backflip to get the head out of the ball.
You can see actor's reaction.
He just can't believe it himself.
Like, this is really my teammate.
My goodness.
Is this a dream?
Unreal.
It looks like a dream come true.
This is what I'm training that I could do in a game, but hey, I think all of us wish we were saying here's a shot
Zach
Pitch it down on the side wall a little steel here. That's what makes sure you don't get any cancers
Sam
Okay, they're feeling it they have a to go leave but it feels like it's insurmountable. Yeah
It looks like a hill, but it climbs like a mountain.
That's in an ato.
That's not just a disaster.
That'll go in easily.
Walk right in.
Ato says thank you very much.
Huff it out my scoreboard here.
Let me get some points.
And it looks like maybe he's high.
Did that collide with the teammate?
It was tough to tell from that angle.
Yeah, I think they either collided with the wall or the teammate.
Either way, it collided with disaster.
Yeah.
Regardless, it was an open.
That's a good thing.
I think it's a good thing.
Yeah, I think it's a good thing.
Yeah, I think it's a good thing.
Yeah, I think it's a good thing.
Yeah, I think it's a good thing.
the wall or the teammate on the way you collided with disaster. Yeah regardless it was an open
that walk in goal. Okay. Shot on the guard. Trying to take it quickly but Zen had that
angle covered. How's that? Can that go for another pitch? They're gonna keep going for it till they
get it now. Once you miss it twice. They went for the ground pitch from the air pitch. It's SSG
that gets the punish. This is so good from Reveal. They gave him the space finally. Brief
look into this. Avoids the bump and then lands with a beautiful shot to the right side.
And most of the Reveal shots have not been good enough. They've either been on target,
not powerful enough. That time he's able to actually avoid a bump, avoid having the 50,
and he finally got a clean angle through. Reveal, he tried to make it difficult, couldn't
read it, and Zen denies the corner boost and will take this airform. What will he do now?
Here he goes again, Zen! This time, Reveal finds a way to make the save,
and Reveal on top of it again. And Zack just could not put it on target!
And Reveal will make sure he protects the rock here, a little bit of possession now for space station.
Now this is a bit of a revival here for SSG. Double reset for Reveal! That one's denied!
Almost for Reveal, Zack.
That's a heavy touch, he ain't gettin' back to it.
Reveal has recovered.
Actually, Reveal was only on small fans.
He opted not to get that midfield post.
And he thought he couldn't really do anything.
Zed, he's at 3-0 for 2-0.
Tim for Zack.
Anything you can do, I can do better.
Or so it seems, for no mis-just fakes.
Chansmopper SSG, this one still.
The dangerous spot little chip gets by the defense and it's cleared off the goal line, but no boost presented that so
Oh, so does it go?
You had to send Starp with no boost if it was any time to take the risk and go for that
You had to have known that he was kind of stuck.
Here's Zach again, reveals Bumped him out of the way.
God, no! What a recovery!
So smart from Zach here, he sees the defenders in net
Instead of trying to force it through in a spot where Zenz blocking goal out of that
Near pulse read off the wall
That was so well done weaves it through the defense and SSG have a chance
The back or the roll on the wall is denied
No at all getting shot out of the way
Here comes that just off to go as high and as fast as possible reveal though
So he's beat clean by Ato, and Ato should get to this, but Sadak is back to the ball.
And is on top of him, and Ato could not quite find it, reveal, try to keep this out.
Space station almost out of time, and they can't get back to the ball.
Sadak across it, to the wall bash, and just avoided the ball.
Ato happy to keep it locked up, locked in, into the net.
One more to go until no miss, just fixed.
Sweet no way to play falcon. Wow, and I hopefully will get to see that goal from Zen as well
That flip reset into the back flip shot
The beast keeps on moving it's like the juggernaut once they get momentum you can't stop them
Got her hands on him for a little bit reveal had a good shot Zack had a good shot. I was the best station look still wasn't enough
So the question remains, will SSG get a game?
They only have one more life left to lose.
No misjusty.
Continuing to get a goal after goal and game after game.
And look at these plays.
This shot from Zed.
Surprising, Zack.
Thought Zack was in good enough position to save that.
Couldn't get it.
Another one as well and here's the one from Xen, the back flip of the reset, Ato, absolutely
giggling camp, could not believe that one, neither could we.
In the end, Ato hits an opportunity shot, yeah just add one in, that's the best way
to end it, you know the ball doesn't have to hit the ground if it hits the back of the
net.
And then leading forward just wants to end it right now.
And Reveal's been staring at his monitor again.
No more timeouts.
And it just doesn't look like anyone
can stop the runaway train.
That is no miss, just fake.
Falcons wait in the grand finals
for the winner of this match.
Space Station got a long journey here.
And they want to say a lot of the series.
That's a low altitude reset handled by SSG
with the pop in the air now to Zend Zend pushing it to the backboard with his reset
Not to give them clean possession
Not to again on the challenge reveal will be first to it one first ceiling double
Hey the reset beautiful shot from reveal
reveal ain't point gun in the series yet
He gets a chance at it. That's a great touch with momentum Zend ain't no chance he's gonna get to that
Reveal underneath it on the reset in space station, I believe that's their first lead of the whole series.
Talk about beauty of the beast, well there was nothing ugly about that shot.
That was gorgeous from SSG. Now then on the goal line, he was able to get the first pitch.
He couldn't get the second at SSG. Now I have a quick second goal.
Sometimes you just got a shoulder the juggernaut back into his own net.
Great setup from Zack.
Then I don't lose him. There was no way he was going to handle a supersonic reveal.
Space Station wants to go lead now.
They'll be able to hang on to it.
No mistrust, FAKE.
Been able to score quite a few goals each game.
Does feel like two probably wouldn't be enough.
Maybe five.
DC's in on the attack here.
Met well by reveal, but this is a shot opportunity for Ato.
Oh, rebound is denied, Zen plays it patient, goes for an infield pass, but that's cut off.
Reveal will have a wide open net, and this will be three goals for Space Station Gaming.
Other than the product, they're feeling like you've never lost any single touch.
Just diving at that ball with no lose, but he was beat clean the whole way, and Space Station's happy.
The long wayward is on the engines, 3-0, with 359, 2v2, that's nothing, especially against these two.
There is plenty of time.
But this is a great start for SSG.
This could be a turning point in the series
if they can maintain this momentum.
Reveal's been excellent, especially the last half
of the last game, all of this game so far,
really coming online.
Is this ball ripped?
But he couldn't get it on target, trying to run it back in.
Reveal takes his time, holds the flick, got the 50,
and good job as well from Senn to hold his flight.
Very good, very good demo. There was going to be a ball pinched off the wall control up in the air
But the demo takes out the attacking player for SSG
very smart demo
And now notice just fake on the attack. There's the reset present goes for a 50
Backwards that's what has to be very careful fake challenges and not gonna go over. No
Perhaps have that angle covered the shot was just off target anyway now on the bounce ato with options will go for a club
And now cut from Reveal, Reveal just dives on that ball.
What really telegraph there, Reveal started moving as soon as he saw Atto ahead of the ball.
That gets pushed out to the side, Zach.
Got the scoop and held his flip as well.
And they got another goal.
She-Station all run-in on the right now, game four.
This one got away from Zed, you don't see it that often where it makes you mistake like that.
That was trying to bring this down to the ground and stay behind it, but you could see
He wasn't able to stay behind the ball and that was going to be an easy function for SSG
You know put in their fourth goal
This game starting to look pretty stable for space station gaming
He is that they've done themselves pretty deep hole right now. There's still a lot of game time left
Not take my foot off the gas pedal if I were space station and they won't it's just pouring down here in game number four
And this is going to be a massive confidence-built horse space station game, and so many people
have been talking about no misjusty because if they're invincible, well, we see SSG draw
some blood.
Reveal.
Not usually the player you're talking about on space station in 3v3 as the mechanical
one.
But he's got mechs and he's really flashed them in this series starting to get the better of it.
And definitely have adjusted how they approach James.
You talked about how a lot of the work has been off-balled for Space Station early on. That's a nice setting.
This time they definitely adjusted it. They've been supporting each other a lot more on the ball.
And here comes Zach. What the fuck? And he does keep a block, but ends up having to retreat.
It's a good read by reveal and SSG as a whole was trying to read those telegraph plays and
now they're starting to cut these lanes wonderfully.
Denied possession, denied shots for them that's just fake as they put in their six.
You can see that trying to get that out to the corner but that's so slow on rotation
back that it ended up just being an open net.
And I think if you're SSG you're not letting off the gas at all.
You want to keep piling this on.
Oh, yeah.
Because, well, that's going to happen.
Is that number, Brazil?
At least for now.
145 remaining.
But yeah, you don't want to take your foot off the gas.
Try the fake kickoff.
That did not work.
And it's, I love that.
You're up six to nothing.
And you still go for a fake kickoff,
unfortunately, for space.
That's the most great thing ever.
You saw it coming.
And that's the counter to the fake kickoff
is just dragging into the ball like that.
Get it elevated.
The last thing you want to do is give a roller back to that second man.
So we'll handle their fight.
No, it's just a great, that fake kickoff.
But it does feel like this lead is a little bit too much for them.
It's just like to come back from really solid game from space station.
Obviously a lot of work to do from here.
And I don't hang on.
You got to stop that.
So I told great save from Zach defense has been really good for them.
When it had to play, it didn't...
Okay, but Zen will...
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Reveal gets there in a nick of time!
Brazil opportunity preserved for now.
That fucked up.
Ball picks up the mid, but a huge pinch.
We'll send that downfield.
Now the shot.
It's awkward.
That's all we're doing.
Do that ball.
And now, you can see the panic there.
Well, that's just trying to hit that downfield.
Not as much possession.
Yeah, uh, poor Numbus, just fake.
They have been able to keep the ball close in those first games.
You saw that Zen, felt like he was never losing a 50.
The ball was sticking to his car.
Well, this time, we've seen SSG successfully make
those reads, dive in, wrangle that ball away.
Successfully bumping Numbus, just fake off the playoff.
They got up to get there.
Man, it's the first goal!
19 seconds for Manning.
They've been getting bodied all series long, but they were able to throw a few blows in themselves.
So that'll be the second loss.
And one of those two losses of Brazil.
Didn't see that coming.
Not bad.
Now can they do what no other team has been able to do and give them two losses?
That's the big question.
Or even perhaps pull off a reverse sweep with a dominant performance like this, perhaps.
Maybe early he'll say it.
Let's see what the next game looks like.
the way I mean when I fall from reveal this game definitely convinced me that
they could do it. Space station have begun the journey of the reverse sweep but as
they say the neck the best step you can take is the next step. Space station the
next step is a game to win. And they were also a step ahead of Zen and Ato that
game you saw how many times that reveal was able to dive in and read that
telegraph pass yeah and that was a key change look at the points for a feel by
the hundred boys dropping six on Zeminato
reveal wants it I mean that was just an excellent performance for him Zach that
time that was him but here's Zach again setting this up they were unable to
send unable to get back there usually said there's a good job staying behind
behind that ball, it gets away from him there and space station never let up afterwards.
So how's space station cracked the code?
Can they keep the series going or the security?
Is it a little too tough?
No, Miss just fake.
Well, one thing I wonder for no, Miss just fake if they're going to keep trying to go
for those team passing plays like I mentioned before, passing a choose isn't always a recipe
for success because you see what happens if you get that lane cut, you don't have that
third man back.
Yeah.
To be helping you on the net.
committing heavily to not only getting the ball forward,
but making sure you don't lose it in any way
where you can have a quick counterattack.
So it is very risky to pass in twos.
We saw SSG punish those pass attempts.
So will we see more solo plays out of no misjust faked?
We know that those players, we know Zett and Anzio
have the ability to do damage all on their own.
See what adjustments no misjust faked make
after being dominated that last game.
Lovely tip-hop.
Yeah, now Zed fakes it.
And Hato go underneath.
No miss, just straight.
The living embodiment of their team name, Zed,
leaving that for Hato.
And you know, maybe they just know better than I do.
Those team plays coming up.
That is about as nice of a team play as you can have in twos.
And look, it was pretty for sure.
It's that really solid.
The pop-up, the fake, the shot.
It was all there.
Zack.
Of course, that fit.
After so much momentum off of that touch.
Going down the field.
The extra one wasn't quite enough to stand.
Gonna take the corner boost away and take the ball away.
Now that was the keeper of space station.
He didn't let go of this just fake do that all the time.
And now Zack gets to go full field.
He scorched so many of those in the earlier games.
And again, at this time, Atoe.
Preflip trying to get the reset.
Finty goes back to Zack.
Xen against Xen. Xen has the catch with the reset.
That's as much through music.
And this is back to normality.
Presenting at zone.
Perfectly taking ground to air the set-up touch
into a reset going past the defender.
Text buck play.
Space station have on the kickoff.
They've got to find a way to stop the bleeding now.
Close to you for Xen.
And he wins it.
Please.
That's exactly how they decided to get back into it.
And you can see that the cheetah versus the boot scrap present Zach playing this perfectly Zen a little bit too slow to the play had to go all in there.
And getting punished.
They kicked off this time.
Works out.
It was just fake.
Not calling on it.
The field just could not stay behind the ball.
Honestly, lucky that ball didn't fly into his net.
He does get a chance here.
Trills it on.
Zack.
Quick touch.
Extra touch.
He has to pass.
Oh, this is going to be a good setup for Zack.
He's got the reset.
Got another reset.
That's what, hitting off a defender.
Oh!
Zack gets the save.
Diving.
It looked like he died.
He didn't really move much, but he had a backflip back into the ball.
It looked like he was dead in the water.
Zack will go back to the corner.
Space Station absolutely in the series right now.
Zack flipping the control with a reset.
Beautiful air travel underneath him.
Oh, Raph!
Oh, he's gonna go backwards!
And that's just not gonna be enough.
Oh, the second man was too close.
That's how it was the perfect rebound.
That could have been the equalizer.
He's going still, driving.
But no duck this time.
You can get close all you want, James.
But it's gotta hit the back of the net, and the flick's not good enough.
Ato got right on top of it, revealed.
On the head back, Zach will cut.
He didn't have a lot of boost, and he lost the ball.
Ato avoids the bump, revealed.
Waiting for it, Zep coming in to bail him out.
His face station, he's gonna keep it stabilized.
Zach recovering on the sidewalk, it was hard.
Revealed, too far back to go for it, now at the feather.
Ato flips over it, and it's a save from the sack.
He doesn't get the extra touch, and revealed.
It's the move, but he used all of his boosts to pump us down here.
He doesn't get the corner boost to steal either.
Is that what the challenge?
He gets a bump on reveal, opening up a path for Ato.
Ato going for a pinch, oh actually Pancakes the reset!
And we're just gonna try to force that through. I like the creativity.
Shades of Oskie on that play.
So pumped up. Ato doesn't have much in the tank.
Zack's got a lot.
But Ato wins that first bout reveal.
off the ceiling.
Oh, he takes the 50-ohs out of the...
No one can put it in the net!
Oh, my goodness!
And that's gonna go in!
No, it's wide!
He can't before me.
Zen, with an insect touch, with a reset.
He holds it with the 50.
It's not gonna happen.
Atto, off the ceiling.
Atto!
The triple tap from Atto!
off the ceiling to the backboard and in your net.
Space Station's gotta be done it, they had the net revealed was right on the goal line.
A game time ball was staring them in the face and now,
no miss just make out insurance and they might add to the premium.
And then actually getting bought in here, Ato bailed him out.
Another chance for Ato, half a take a boost to work with on this play.
Goes for a late tap, but it's covered by Zack.
Time running out for space station.
Zack gets the reset, sets it across.
Ato coming back, reveal, driving through the ball.
Zack can't go, Ato's still on it.
Zack actually gets a great pop on this back reveal, looking for Zack.
Trying a little bit of passing to themselves, but it gets cut out.
Zack gets his boost, they've had a bit of possession, but time continues.
The tick down, Zack slowing it down.
20 for the 15, it doesn't work out, Zack.
Rich back around, another goal might end it,
and Reveal somehow gets bumped, gets the save,
but Akko wins the touch, and it's in the net!
That feels like the dagger, Jor-B!
The demo from Zed, the tiff pass from Atto,
the quick shot, Reveal trying to get back,
ends up hitting it into his own net,
And no missed just fake putting up four goals once again
With only 30 seconds remaining it looks like they are going to prove or move on to the grand finals
Where they will play team falcons
Electric that series versus fury it was
You already know i mean roll-offs was doing some crazy things in that match. I gotta tell you james
Saturday cannot come soon enough reveal what's right as he might Zach will just
miss the ball that's so too powerful no miss just fake too strong only two games
drop in the entire 2v2 run off with a date to play against Stalkins on Saturday
a dominating performance for no miss just fake they gave us some gorgeous
goals. They did drop a game. They got brazil'd in that one game. So SSG, you saw that they
were capable of even in that game, Jordan, they had chances that you were thinking, okay,
they're going to put it in and they just barely missed that game. Could have been so much
different. The fist bumps coming out. Got to respect it. No misjust fake. They are too
Good
On space station, they might be out of the 2v2
They are alive and well in the 3v3 as well as Zen and Ato. I can I cannot wait for
Role-os clears versus Ato and Zen that is gonna be a very team could take more than one game off of that
Surely it would be
But right now it doesn't look like anyone in the world can stop this duo
psychically links
Mechanically different, right now looking like a world best.
No miss just fake, just look better than the rest right now.
Space station try as they may, couldn't get it done.
Can't wait for Saturday, we'll see you there.
And a massive surprise to everyone with Zennan Atto
taking the victory here.
I guess the biggest surprise would be that dropping a game.
I guess for some people coming into this matchup
you had to have a lot of confidence,
free KMMR, well, record, congratulations on that as well.
I wanna ask what your regimen is for twos.
Why do you think you have such a strong acumen for twos?
What is it?
Congratulations, no big surprise, maybe the biggest surprise is that you lost a game in the end
but it's true that you get a lot of confidence, you just won the 3,000 MMR, congratulations
What do you think Europe is so good in 2v2, what does Europe do for that?
I think that it's just all our career, we played in R2S
and there are also the MENAs against which we can play with that, so it's easier to train
We're just the best. Atos is Thanos, that's all.
the Falcons, the Twins, in the Grand Finals there.
Have you been able to practice against them at all in Tuesdays, maybe just even playing in rank while you're here?
And what's your thoughts and your takes on this?
and we did 4-3, but it's a team that doesn't underestimate us.
They are very strong individually and I think they are a team, so it's not to learn to manage.
The last question here now, of course, you'll be playing on stage next time, which changed from playing at home ranked from playing here in the studio
I know you love the audience
Do you feel though that that's going to change maybe how you play and how you approach will I make things be a little bit closer because of that change?
So that's the last question for you
Next match that you played by a great final in front of the audience and we know that you are used to having the audience next to you
to try to bring the audience as much as possible and to use that as your advantage.
What do you think will change for you to play this final 2-2 game in front of the public?
Honestly, I don't care. I just want to play well and I think nothing will change
because we are players who play a lot of the next stage, so we are used to it.
We will just get there, play our game play and try to get you out of the way.
We are very experienced, we used to play lots of lands, so I don't think it's going to really change much.
And yeah, what matters for me is just that we play well, and just that we do our best, so I don't think it's going to change anything.
That's fair enough. I also agree. I don't think it's going to change much. I think everyone is rooting on you guys to take that victory, but we'll have to find out on the weekend for now.
Congratulations on that win right there. And that does mark the end of two's. I see Bates just laughing and making a ruckus over here.
Let's go to the dressing room, let's find out what's happening here. You guys head off, I'll take those for me.
What do you guys what are you guys going on about here? What are you laughing about?
The first thing I laughed at was how long your first question was.
It's the end of the day and I don't really know what I'm going with anything right now, I'll be honest.
He's over 40 seconds.
The most important question.
As then to give me some of his MMR, like a thousand of it maybe or so.
That's not how nothing works.
You just trade it around?
That is the booster account.
No, no, no, just like that.
They can just like to lead a thousand from him at the thousand to me. It won't change any
You know what I'll go ask him right now, and I'll come back with the answer
The finals the grand finals of the world championship the 2v2 have been set folks
We will be taking on the winter and really good
You heard you heard Zen call out of Thanos. He's like he's the inevitable one
That's the thing though because he said all that I look over at a look looks up over up. He says he wings it
It was as in he says
Yeah, like you say yeah, I have them
What it was what do you do and then you hear since cops the whole time during this going particular then come this whole thing for 20 seconds
It's just
Yeah, he comes up. Yeah, yeah
You ever get a chance to get anywhere close to Zen when he's playing?
You just hear how much he's calling.
It's crazy that goes.
It's funny because that was the second time that game.
The Zen had just taken the ball from the back corner.
Erdil the whole pitch and scored over the top of both defenders.
And that was just laughing because Zen is his teammate.
And I can tell you that confidently because he said the same thing to me
yesterday when I talked to him about this match.
He said, he just said, well, I mean, we're going to win because I'm
teaming with Zen and no one else is.
Now to be fair, not many people can say
that they had Brazil, Zenonato.
The game station can now say that, so congratulations.
A total of four people in the RLCS competition
can say that they've taken a game off them at all.
They've doubled the amount of games that they've lost,
which is more as a testament.
They actually did, to words, well, I think games four and five,
the game station looked like themselves again.
But the first three games that you could really
tell that they were super nervous,
they were missing shots that would usually hit.
So even though Zenonato destroyed everybody,
I think it's sort of a self-fulfilling prophecy
at this point.
Everybody knows it's going to happen,
and they just go in and they get completely aura blasted.
It's the aura.
It just makes sense to me, though.
Because remember when Xevan's hopping on the 1v1 scene,
Johnny, and there's one person that tweeted out something.
It was the last one he beat, and he said, you know,
Gigi's to Xen, but I'm not like the others.
Oh, he was in the Grand Final to the 2v2.
I think it might be the twins.
Last time I checked.
No, no, he's not like the others.
No, no, it might be the Grand Final gonna be on Saturday, boy.
Woo, woo, I'm excited for that.
Zachary looked at me, hope I said the question is,
they take a game my prediction was that they wouldn't and they did so that's
proof that Zenonato can lose on land they've lost a game and it gives hope to
Falcons gives hope to the rest of the world and Johnny who else beat Zenonato?
I actually don't remember it was early on in terms of the way I think we got to print four medals
and just hand back to the guys for a game.
Did you get a title in the game before you know? We beat Zenonato.
I beat Zen and Atto and all I got was this title.
Yeah.
I'm gonna like that.
What a day.
What a day for the 2v2s.
The grand finals is that we will play that on Saturday
first, but the grand finals of the 3v3 very far
from being determined.
Our bracket is that we will begin it tomorrow,
11 a.m. central.
This is how the groups went down.
I mean, Johnny, what is the biggest surprise for you
out of this group stage?
I'd say groups, B, C, and D.
Probably all of them, all of it, NA number one.
Really only Man City being rebellion,
that was the one surprise in Group C.
So it wasn't that crazy, but yeah,
that's a Man City sweep over rebellion is insane.
But yeah, Groups B and D, completely ridiculous.
NIP going out in eight game losses in a row
after third place AWC is insane,
but VP and Foote absolutely deserve to win their groups.
We have our bracket here
with the round one matchup down there.
Everything on the bottom side is single elimination.
You lose that.
Your world championship run ends.
The teams in the top there, those four have two lives.
If you win, you jump forward to the top four.
You'll be in the semifinals.
If you lose, you go to the matches directly behind it.
The quarterfinals, you're guaranteed top six,
but you do have to win at some point
if you want to play for the title.
And there's 12 teams left.
There is no easy matchup left like in this tournament.
It is going to be brutal all the way through.
And listen, my memory serves correctly.
I haven't checked it recently.
I still do believe that the winners of all the land since we've done that NFL format
And the other winners as well. So yeah, so
Yeah, just a tough match a tough road for a lot of these teams folks
Let's take a look at the schedule for tomorrow if we have it
I want to see what the matches are
the order is to see it. Was it just up there for a second? Yeah, we might have a little
more time. We're still talking about the bracket. I know, we did show it. We actually missed it.
Yeah, I think I saw it. But did you see it? Yeah. Here we are, let's look at it again. It was just
like this. Falcon's Furia. Nice. It's the first match of the day, followed by Manchester versus the
Gentleman. It's Twisted Mind versus Space Station Shopify versus Vitality, and then
the 1v1 Grand Finals. This makes a lot of sense. Match 3 and
and match for is NA versus another region. We want the crowd to get involved. We want everyone
to be there in case you're late. You're still going to see those great matchups. We'll see
Nass and Nobu play in their matches there in the middle of the day, but they'll get one match
between their 3v3 matches and the grand finals there. Can Nobu win it two times in a row? Folks
he's coming in as the defending 1v1 champion of the world might go back to back here. Nass
has something to say about it.
But if Nobu wins, is that the 1v1 GOAT?
Just kind of locked up right there, Johnny?
I think either one of these guys winning
would probably lock up 1v1 GOAT.
Because Nasus won a couple of Salt Mines.
Obviously, the 1v1 defending champ.
Going back to back, you're the GOAT.
I mean, that's just ridiculous.
Absolutely.
But I think Nasus, to come back in,
he can definitely make that close.
Incredible, folks.
That is the end of our group stage.
Tomorrow, we welcome Rocket League's fans
into the building to celebrate crowning world
champions in 1v1s, 2v2s, and 3v3s.
The doors open, I believe, at like 9.
10.
Pre-show starts at 10.
Game started at 11.
We'll see you guys there for the continuation
of the Rocket League World Championship.
Go!
I
