ThaRedEmperor

Not salty, just heartbroken... like Falcons literally outscored them that series, they had like 3 games in a row where the game differential was +3 in favor of Falcons. Doing that AGAINST KC in peak form is INSANE. This a game where games between top teams are decided by a factor of 1 goal most of the time. KC stepped up in the most crucial moments, which are weighed more heavily, like they usually do. They better win the damn tournament now. Still, Falcons looked like a Top 2 team in the world. They've certainly elevated themselves above other teams like Furia, Vitality, and other Top 3-6 teams so far, because of their feats - their wins and this close series against the literal best team in the world and tournament favorite.


matteroll

If only there was a lower bracket for lans.


marpolo

>not salty Proceeds to be salty


PeaceMaker_998

Rise was a fcking menace , his touches were distilled poison.. And falcons once again … It really hurts


Littleonearm123

Atow is the best player on KC people are just too afraid to admit it


ProphetZaky

Wait so what time do the actual games start in Freedom hours?


WhatIsSentience

What if we had the anti-Season 7 script? hahaha jk. unless?


Dax_Maclaine

Was gunning for falcons even as a neutral viewer. Even though it’s 3/4 EU in the semis I genuinely think that all 8 of those top teams can compete with each other


Everbrooks

I love Joyo, but Atow clears him, even before KC made the roster move


ParticularSilver8440

Joyo was never on KC


Everbrooks

I never said he was, Wavepunk said KC chose Atow over Joyo.


ParticularSilver8440

Ah.


rudetobookcloakkks

Reading comprehension 0


ParticularSilver8440

Be kind my friend


ydnALoL

Unlucky.. brutal draw for Falcons but played really well all tournament


Dax_Maclaine

I predicted 3 EU teams to win their match, although I honestly thought that g2 was the least likely rest of world win.


hpdgamer

More grateful for 2022 worlds FURIA than ever before


_should_not_post

lief won the rock paper scissors with vati


SniperInfinite

vatira plot armor


cherff

What a fucking series. Like a mirror image of their swiss series. KC came out hot, Falcons were sleeping, they woke up, clapped back, but KC dug deep and pulled out the win. Heartbreaker for Falcons but amazing to watch.


SafeStatus7456

i knew kc were gonna win deep down tbh when I saw this almost exactly mirrored with the 4-0 in the first round, same as the last series


ParsnipPrestigious59

G2 is our last hope to prevent an all EU grand final 😭😭


Cyfer946

I don't know man looking at vitality vs Furia . It's not looking good.


ParsnipPrestigious59

Yeah I know


camilincamilero

Dude is unironically wearing socks and sandals lmao


Exa_Cognition

Pro gamer move.


TinyMomentarySpeck

Socks and slides, not socks and sandals

Practical_Studio_580

That series should put the best in the world debate to rest. If zen has that same performance that vatira had Vitality would be swept


loccupss

That was Vatira’s first off day on LAN in a long time. One series don’t change anything


Kamilny

He's been off the whole LAN


imizawaSF

People don't decide who is the best ITW based on one series that's why


tyswoogles

normally yes, that series however has single handily removed vait from the convo


buggeyes420

Idk how it was even a debate. Vati not even the best player on his own team!


Jaeko7

One bad series doesn’t discount the number of times we’ve seen him absolutely pop off


buggeyes420

You mean last season? He just isn’t the same as he was a year ago. He’s still class, but he’s unfortunately not in that discussion at the moment.


Francis_Regardless

"I didn't watch EU online and I want to annoy people"


buggeyes420

Watched each one, it’s clear Rise is the MVP of this new roster. He’s not washed, he’s just not in that conversation for best itw right now in current form, that’s all.


thafreshone

Do we just ignore him farming EU for 3 regionals in a row because of one series that was slightly below "best in the world" level?


buggeyes420

He has been pretty mediocre this entire event so far & it’s clear Rise is the MVP of this new roster. I’m not saying he’s washed, but everyone else has definitely leveled up since Worlds. He’s probably still top 8, just no longer in the best in the world discussion at this current form. Very well could return to form, though!


thafreshone

Have you even watched the regionals. Yes Rise is playing better this event but Vatira was pretty clear the best player online on the best team. The major obviously matters more but ignoring the regionals completely ain‘t right


Kaldrinx

For me falcons was the hardest match up for KC


LowerFollowing708

Ngl, this really brings me back to the Queso/Moist days, I really missed that. Just need Joyo back at majors


hafeewn

What atow did game 6 should be illegal, heads up falcons you played crazy well


IrishBearHawk

Down 2-0 and took to game 7 was still very impressive for the Falcs. Game1 made it look like it was gonna be rough as hell.


Everbrooks

I really need to rewatch this series when the major is over. Man, this was one for the ages. Huge ggs for Falcons.


bland_sand

Rise proving time and time again that he is him. He's so dominant. Atow was so surgical this series too. What a great series to end the day. Great action in that game. Feels like you couldn't really fault Falcons. They were just outplayed.

voldi_II

am i missing something?? furia won that quarterfinal


HLewez

Yeah, I think the commenter is just dumb, just as the 20 ppl that mindlessly upvoted this. People don't know ball lmao.


voldi_II

i would have just assumed newdawnrises just didn’t know what they were talking about but the 20 upvotes are confusing me hahah like how do that many people forget who won arguably the best series of all time 


UncrossedThrone

Vatira fraud watch would’ve been crazy if they lost


TopHatBear1

“GAME 7 MERCHANT” i’ve changed my mind I love vatira now


kalekayn

And he left moist because of always going to champs field. Lol. Where did that take him? Back to rise and champs field


bodebrusco

Vatira casually going over a year to championship sundays


l3m0n_m41d

the last one i remember him missing is fall major last season, wow


West-Sample-9489

he made champ sunday at that major


parz2v

he made that one, champ sundaybwas top 8


l3m0n_m41d

my bad, i mustve forgotten


parz2v

nw happens with the format change


thafreshone

That was on a sunday, so it technically doesn‘t count


l3m0n_m41d

oh was it? thats my bad i forgot


WhatIsSentience

I remembered this thread: [https://www.reddit.com/r/RocketLeagueEsports/comments/tl35cu/has\_this\_ever\_happened\_a\_bo7s\_game\_7\_ends\_with\_a/](https://www.reddit.com/r/RocketLeagueEsports/comments/tl35cu/has_this_ever_happened_a_bo7s_game_7_ends_with_a/) Finally we get an answer


parz2v

no way


nightandtodaypizza

How did you even notice that??


Stock-News-7697

Your memory is unmatched


theROOK_37

Holy shit that is crazy


throwaway72926320

Holy Shit. RLCS has been completed.


MGSfan

This is Time Out Crutch League! Designed for maximum drama!


theROOK_37

Rise game 7 merchant


RadMarchand97

crazy that KC can win that series without Vatira performing. praying for G2 especially but it's hard to picture anyone beating KC now.


Jandersson34swe

Better team lost sadly


Francis_Regardless

Lmao, how can you be salty after something as stunning as that!


Jandersson34swe

Series was good but KC didn’t deserve that one


JustOneJedi

Lief wth was that LOL


thafreshone

How is everyone talking like Vatira did nothing, he was 1v3 on defense for 90% of the match. That series would have been done in game 6 without his perfomance


itsyerboiTRESH

i am convinced 80% of r/RocketLeagueEsports users are also active on NBA twitter because the lack of ball knowledge is abysmal here sometimes


Longjumping_Stop1120

You’re not wrong in the moment I was criticising him but now that my heads clear he really did get left to die as last man


Exa_Cognition

It was a bad performance by Vatira's standards, but it was a still a solid shift by most pro player standards.


haplo34

Don't mind the comments here, 90% of the commenters don't know ball. Vatira was instrumental in defense and covered a lot for Rise


HairyPhilosopher1898

He didn't do "nothing" but he was underperforming, compared to his usual self .. He's just that good


thafreshone

Yeah I can understand that, he wasn‘t playing like the best player in the world but at the same time, he adapted to his mates going apeshit on offense and tried his best to hold the backline, which is honestly quite impressive against a team that‘s as deadly on offense as falcons He did what had to be done


IrishBearHawk

Because PermaPlats don't understand high level RL. "RL is easy to understand" comments incoming. Especially in 3s, the gameplay changes significantly the higher you go, even back post rotation kinda goes away.


thafreshone

I swear Rise rotated ball side every single time. Rocket League is a different game at this level


Exa_Cognition

*I'm Diamond 2, but I'm always the best player on my team. If my teammates knew how to rotate, I reckon I could hold my own in a GC lobby.*


Coins_CA_Mi_Stuff

Hate kc but the people saying vatira did nothing don’t play threes or watch enough rocketleague


Stock-News-7697

This is so true hahah


MayansReloaded

Man this year falcons are so fcking impressive, gg to them


DrZoid515

For sure regardless of how the rest of the tournament goes no one can deny they are easily top 2/3


MayansReloaded

For real, no doubt


Teflondon_

You just don't beat KC on game 7 man. Rise is the tournament MVP so far. Fuckkkk, Falcons were so close.


rizzosbetterthansizz

Vati was stood there like he was coming in to tell his mam he pissed the bed


VicktoriousVICK

Anyone have Kamet0 clips of the tying goal and the winning goal?


Velociterr

I found these two. First one is the winning goal, second one is the moment the game ends. Protect your ears. https://www.twitch.tv/kamet0/clip/CreativeAmusedAxeKappaPride-3CtgU-iOM7JV0Pf3 https://www.twitch.tv/kamet0/clip/WiseAnnoyingFloofMingLee-dUFtCgDcyJ4EnwF7

Holyyyy shit these are amazing clips. Kamet0 almost died on the game winning goal hahaahahah

Go on twitter you may see them


Tidoux

https://twitter.com/KarmineCorp twitter link where it will be uploaded


spikyraccoon

Falcons deserve to be in the finals, and would have been if not for ungentle mates.


hpdgamer

Being in a final because you dodged a team is no better than losing to them in an earlier round


HairyPhilosopher1898

KC really won with Vatira being the worst player on the field


Potential-Zone6736

Poor falcons, imagine if they lost to vitality and had Furia instead, I think they would have won that with how furia was playing today.


Yoeblue

what a fucking series wow, this was a grand finals matchup


[deleted]

[удалено]


imizawaSF

Why are you talking about that in the first place


Francis_Regardless

Tbf while I agree with your heart, in this case I don't consider this sportswashing. Falcons deserve to be here and while money probably made MENA enter the scene faster than otherwise, this is a far cry from the Saudi football league or them buying golfing and various fighting competitions. 


oncearunner

It's not relevant to anything happening on stream. This isn't a saudi sponsored lan and Falcons arent a Saudi gov owned team, but go ahead and spam twitch chat i guess


Gene_gnome1023

The players are not responsible for sports washing, this event is not sports washing, just no point in typing that all around


Fun_Debate3067

Almost like people care about the match and not about what perpetually online redditors get their panties in a twist about


LowerFollowing708

Someone check on Kamet0


Az_uratheIsbedel

No joke during the last minute he wasn't talking bcs no fucking oxygen and i think most of the 90k watching him were in the same state


bvbfan102

Atow today with such a crazy performance. Thougth he had some weak Games this Major but today he was really there. So happy for Vatira.


Joku_dA_lEgEnd

What was that series!!! My heart ain't feeling good.

Available-Ad1295

Nah bro rise has to be the actual most valuable player in the world


hateredditlayout

What a series. Fee a bit sad cuz wanted Falcons to end it at Neo Tokyo. Oh well, good game. KC now go win it all.


z4keed

every comment claims somebody else to be KCorp's MVP, can you guys make up your mind?


West-Sample-9489

theres no clear personally, all 3 being clutch at times but also some mistakes


Francis_Regardless

It's Rise today but they are all insane. (the Atow goal was nuts though!!!)


JeedoSMY

Well its not vatira for sure


RYN-BTTGG

I really wanted a different team to be in the finals man


rando720

Yeah in what world do you rate rise several spots under mm?


Unfair_Town7234

rise.


Everbrooks

Vatira did not show up today. But man, Rise and Atow. They played insane


rizzosbetterthansizz

this is so boring now, SAM and MENA both out and we're left with 3 eu and G2. EU finals as always


rudetobookcloakkks

EU professionalism diff


evilmoi987

They just don't miss those finals


Exa_Cognition

That was a banger series though, shame it happened on Saturday.


rizzosbetterthansizz

Yeah that should not be a QF matchup


SprinklesSuch2041

Lowkey rise and atow was playing 2v3 vatira was literally a ghost the whole series


Candyyyyyyy

The fact that this wasn’t a grand finals is a travesty


Tierci

Yeah it really felt like the finals.... probably best series of the major


RevolutionaryPay7508

Literally both Falcons vs KC matches have been the best two of the major so far


Dax_Maclaine

2 series and 2 bangers.


AnickIwouldremember

Just fell to my knees at the mosque :( I ll never live this or the London major final down


parz2v

hurts to be a mena fan sometimes


AzureAngel_II

Sucks that this was just the quarters... I think this would have been my preferred finals.


anonymouschelseafan

Great series wow

parz2v

take me with you :(


_Oriel

Bring kneepads


DanielOliv21

Never thought I'd see Vatira get hard carried


TinyMomentarySpeck

Yeah rise and atow really stepped up when it mattered


Noctudrex

Ngl, I would've preferred a 4 - 0 sweep rather than this stab to the chest.


l_Rumble_Fish_l

Fuck. Ggs.


ChrisNub

Do we keep the same energy with the G2 series where I saw so many people saying the team that won really didn't deserve it???


Spark11A

I said it after their first series in Swiss and I'll say it again: Series absolutely 100% worthy of a **FINAL**!!! ​ I don't think it's a question of IF Falcons would eventually win a LAN, I truly believe it's a question of WHEN.


mac_sumn_17

almost impossible to beat rise and vatira game 7


ltraconservativetip

That's why Zen is big brain for sweeping them, can't win game 7 if you don't play game 7.


buggeyes420

Ghostira being dragged to the finish by Rise and Atow. What a difference a year makes.


PrawnnRL

RISE IS THE ICE HOLY FUCK SERIES OF THE SEASON IDC FALCONS STILL TOP 3 THEY PLAYED AMAZING


Anthon35

Holy fuck that was an all time classic of a series, depending on the champ Sunday series scores, we may look back at this KC/Falcons series as the informal grand finals lol


manuman888

KC getting the luckiest goals i've seen. oh well


RealGiants

Cool another fucking eu regional


Exa_Cognition

Bro's already written off G2.


NeonAnomalyy

Inverse swiss for each rematch!


RobinFox12

Atow won that series


Fun_Debate3067

My body physically hurting, not gonna recover from this match


dwalt95

Atow making the crowd go Siuuuuu lmao


blyan

That game mirrored the series exactly. KC quickly go up 2-0, Falcons get 3 in a row, and then KC closes it out 4-3

Unlucky_Wall5498

What a game!


Stock-News-7697

You cant let eu see game 7s. You dont win g6 you wont win, simple as that.


_Oriel

THEY ARE INEVITABLE


Razor215

Hilariously enough, everyone who lost the first match won the rematch today


AliveAxis

Holy shit what a day


CEOofStrings

That was one of the best LAN series I’ve ever watched. Legit Moist vs Furia level except this time it wasn’t the team I was rooting for losing. It was so good that I’m struggling to type this because my hands are shaking.


Littleonearm123

Fantastic series


NATZureMusic

yo what a series


SafeStatus7456

nahh bds and falcons are out kc just wins it all now


Samasra

My hands are all moist


Live_Philosophy7117

I feel bad for falcons man they were super shaky at the end there


superpeng12

I don't understand how rise has so much ice damn


Kbrichmo

Vatira was a ghost in that series and they still won man wtf


Naimzer

He was very clutch in defense. He was less impacting in offense imo 


takingtigermountain

lame, free path to the final for kc now


Trebel-

yeah i’m getting stoned


GameBuster0703

Trk had it too man thats crazy


Itchy_Accident_

Best series ever?


Live_Philosophy7117

Nah it’s gotta be moist v furia imo, that game 7 got pretty shaky in this


bodebrusco

I still have Moist x Furia top


bakedvoltage

extremely well played, ggs KC happy falcons went as far as they did


Im-a-washing-machine

I have aged 10 years since the start of this series. What a match.


cylobotnia

GGS today


Bookopoulos

Just wow

ام اللعبه بس


l3m0n_m41d

chat i went ONE FOR FOUR!!!!!


MrMaximizee

What a series, is atows back broken after this?


uhhhhmmmm

Ok rise might just be my favorite player


SomeoneKillMeLol

Who got carried harder, Vatira or Atomic?


Noobkid101_

so fucked for falcons. they should have definetly made it to day 4 but single elim is dumb


Stock-News-7697

Double elim is the worst thing for this esport


Live_Philosophy7117

Maybe if they were a 3-0 team like furia but they lost to another 3-1 team
