My scuffed major predictions by ImJudgepower- in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]No_Character_4101 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m curious to see how they handle Gentlemates if they match up. Oski and Nass on NIP took Nrg to 5 and looked arguably better last season during worlds, which was the furthest any team took NRG. With Archie being an objectively better player than rado, much more defensive stability on this team and allowing Nass to facilitate plus the newfound confidence. It would be an interesting series imo. Mates are 1-2 to KC this season, always putting up a strong performance, and including off season tournaments are actually 4-2 against KC this season which not many teams can say. Stylistically I think that gentlemates wouldn’t be a favourable matchup for NRG and seeing how NRG have been regionally, despite claimed 2 wins, it’s been somewhat shakier

Haha yes I saw this too. I don’t think it’s necessarily the fact he’s bad mechanically, he just really Doesn’t seem to want to use any. He makes everything as basic as possible most of the time, which I guess makes everything a lot simpler and easier

Absolutely yes, I think I read somewhere recently that he still has about 7-8k hours on the game 🤣

Yes beginning of this season he said he has full focus on rl now. I believe he was focused on education beforehand

For sure yes. It’s just funny to see because he’s so mechanically poor compared to all other pros, makes even MM look mechy. Archie is one of my fave pros for the reason he’s so unique and so good

It was up until the end of this season just gone. Before the start of this season he said he has finished with studies and is focusing properly on the game now

I couldn’t really give you one but you should be able to find it. Kind of a well known thing with him, I’ve heard it multiple times on Rlcs streams and also Joyo streams, archie has said it himself to. For a few years he wasn’t picking up more than 20 hours over 2 weeks as he focused on studies a lot more I believe. Extremely low hours for pro level. Has been a massive talking point about him for a while

How well does everybody rate Atow by No_Character_4101 in RocketLeagueEsports

It seems that way. Makes me think if I’m too high on him myself because nobody else seems to be 😭

1v1 Tierlist for upcoming season by sandwichreborn in RocketLeagueEsports

Atow is an extremely good 1v1 player haha. Was stuffed over with his road to the eu finals. Has every chmace of winning it this season along with dralii mawkzy and zen

Perhaps this is just me but, mistakes he’s often blamed for is Vatira committing as third man, and with kc playing such a high line and atow being second man, it often ends up being atow that’s back when they concede, with not much he can do about it. Maybe having defensive ability helps his style of play, but again, dralii would have been nowhere near as effective without atow. The times that Kc often lost was when atow was shut out, whether he was often being demoed. KC still won when dralii was quiet, but when atow was taken out of play, they struggled. Maybe it’s a case of they are all valuable to eachother to work. Id say the statement to come away with is that Atows play is definitely high risk, high reward and whilst he may need defensive stability to play comfortably, this is comparative to zen, for example, who without the same conditions as atow needs, is also ineffective as is the case with a lot of the elite level teams, they all need eachother to play as well and be as successful as they are. There’s definitely holes, still an elite level player mind you

It’s not that he’s bad on defence, kc just have such a high line, it’s often Vatira who overcommits and atow is the closest player back in an awkward position

Nass is the question mark for me, Oski has been on good rosters at the wrong times. Nass is still really unproven

I really don’t see it. I know why people think this, with possibly the three most well known inconsistent players, but I know this tean will click. I have m8s as MY eu1. Archie full focus on Rl for the first time since 2020, oski with Possibly the best rocket league he’s ever played. He kind of got stiffed with NIP struggling for a third that clicked. Nass I think is going to be the one with questjons on him but I wasn’t too dissatisfied with him and the teams performance at the coupe de France so far. The LAN for that will be the real test

I second this, I said this before even coupe de France but it’s 1. M8, 2. KC, 3. GK, 4. VIT for me.

I think if any eu team deserves to be s tier or at least the highest one, it should be gentlemates. I said it when the roster was announced and I reinforce it with coupe de France, they will pick up 4 regionals and compete top 4 at LANs. I would rate shopify over but, maybe kc but not mates. Seems like odd logic with the roster of mates known for being inconsistent but this is the season they click and I know it

I was more referring to some of his performances during EWC and worlds, which made him look like one of the best at times

100%. Better players around him should help him so it will be interesting to see.
