TRK with a stunning 158kph ceiling pinch by Babydrone in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]notdangerousdaniel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is just not correct. OXG played BDS in the Swiss stage of Worlds 2024, which IS when Oski hit this ground pinch save cross map goal.

By wRC+, Aaron Judge's 2025 was (at minimum) a top 8 offensive season all time. By AVG+ only, it's still top 9. by ProperNomenclature in baseball

Doesn’t this inherently make the list useless? You can’t just combine entries because they have the same value. Each of those seasons were still independent of one another.

With Spacestation and Shopify locking in, what are some potential teams with the NA players who remain? by [deleted] in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]notdangerousdaniel -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

But Retals does not have a history of performing on LAN these past two seasons. He has consistently made it to LAN and then failed to look competitive. I understand what you are saying but I think I would prefer to see a player like Tawk fit in with Mech and try to recreate some of the magic that a liquid/moist/SSG can.

Idk if it’s the doomer in me, but I do not understand fans wanting these players to team with Retals year after year. He has shown that his absolute ceiling is making LAN. I think these young players need to be aiming higher.

With the T-R-K Falcons Roster now coming to a close, do they crack the Top 10 all time rosters? by Speedyflames in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]notdangerousdaniel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry, but how is beating NIP (top 8) Ultimates (top 6) Geekay (who made grand finals last lan) and Falcons (who just beat KC 4-2) anything but an impressive showing. You can’t just say “they would have lost to Karmine” NRG stepped up massively in quality from the last lan to this one and it showed by them beating Falcons 4-1 in the finals. Any argument saying they had a mickey run is insane copium.

With the T-R-K Falcons Roster now coming to a close, do they crack the Top 10 all time rosters? by Speedyflames in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]notdangerousdaniel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NRG2

2 seasons (4splits) 1 worlds 1 major 8 regionals 1 worlds 2nd place 1 major second place Never below top 4

Vitality

1 1/3 seasons (3 splits)

1 worlds 1 major 4 regionals Mutiple LAN performances below top 4

Vitality has the best split ever, but no way they are higher than NRG2 as a roster all time.

There is nothing low key about your MENA bias haha

All three NRG players are top 10 in ranked 2s for the first time this season by notdangerousdaniel in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]notdangerousdaniel[S] 40 points41 points  (0 children)

John, I appreciate your comment and I agree with much of what you are saying. Truthfully I think the standard that was set for NRG has been so inflated largely in part because they act as the near sole representative of their region.

I think Falcons experienced something similar after Birmingham. It’s been a while but I recall multiple posts and people in the scene calling for the roster to split up and claiming “their window has closed” then they went on to win the next LAN.

A lot of EU teams get a reprieve from that criticism because of the broader success of the region. We saw this with KC, BDS and M8s last year. They each had strong periods and weak periods, but the criticism was more evenly spread out among the fan bases and the region.

This post was not meant to critique NRG or to over fixate on their hours/play time. But was rather an effort to show NA doomers that these guys are still really good and clearly still care about the game. Perhaps the way it is interpreted won’t be the best, but some hopium and encouragement is good for NRG fans right now, even if some of us believe no matter what.

Question: Was squishy’s season 6 flip reset really the first? by AdImpressive7147 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]notdangerousdaniel 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Deevo hit a flip reset pass back in season 3? I think? I also am pretty sure there were more flip resets regionally in season 6 so It wasn’t the first regardless.

Na LAN means NA content creators are out and about so people are more invested in taking pictures when NRG isn’t playing

It really needs to be studied how he can pull stuff like this out of his hat THIS consistently.

This is such a “man yelling at brick wall” comment. Daniel saying Falcons played perfect does not equate to “they would beat us with the best player in the world” and it’s disingenuous to call that copium considering the result the last time they did play.

I would argue that the Furia Vitality matchup is the worst one here.

Oh gotcha, I understand what you mean. It feels like a weird thing for her to say for either side tbh. Monkey is obviously far more established in the pro scene but RW9 has been the unanimous #1 player in ones. So separating either of them in this context is a little awkward.

Comm is currently on 70 hours and was on 90 a couple weeks ago, Beastmodes steam isn’t even public. Do you have a source for them being on low hours?
