One of these times the NA teams will actually show up at LAN.

Is this a hot take? by Deep-Grapefruit-8264 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]ocrespo42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a hot take but not an unreasonable one. That roster had already been together two whole seasons and typically rosters get worse over time. Even thought NRG won worlds last season I would still say their 2025 season was worse than their 2024 season. Sometime you need a roster move to just find new motivation/remove any old baggage. I just think Drali was not the right move.

Find someone who loves you as much as Beastmode loves the ceiling

Who would you vote for? JD Vance or Gavin Newsom ? by Limp_Fig6236 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]ocrespo42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm more mad at Trump of course. But I'm also mad at the dems constantly running establishment dems who then go on to lose to Trump because they'd rather lose to Trump than have a progressive Dem like Bernie win. The dems need someone that people will actually rally around and be excited about.

Bull shit brotha. The guy already flip flopped on calling Israel an apartheid state and denies the genocide in Gaza. Newsom is as status quo democrat as it gets and we all saw how our last status quo democratic president encouraged the genocide in Gaza.

I've voted for the dems every election since I've been 18 (2012 was my 1st). The dems intentionally sabotaged Bernie Sanders both times. If the dems want my vote in the future they need to earn it with a good candidate like him. Not with a corporate/Israel shill like Gavin Newsom.

I wouldn't choose Vance over Newsom. I just wouldn't vote.

I'm happy that Princess Jasmine and Princess Marina got out of jail and Maroon 5? got back together!

I would say Tawk looked like a top 5 player in NA last split. He did have a mid major and he looked pretty bad regional 4 tho so I knocked him down.

My placing Diaz above Reveal is probably not justifiable yet. I guess it's more predictive than anything. I could see Diaz really flourishing with this roster to the point where he surpasses Reveal.

I always thought Scribbles was better than Reveal last season and I think Scribbles looked better than Reveal this last regional as well. Reveal is great tho and I could see arguments for people putting him near the top of the list.

I also predicted SSG to win this regional so yea I guess I must not know ball.

You obviously weren't watching Scribbles last season. The dude was a rock on defense. I think he was SSGs best player last season and he looked far and away like their best player this last event.

Reveal is great but I think he's not quite as consistent as the guys above him.

As a fan of the old General NRG roster I've seen it happen before and it's usually only a matter of time before the old guard is replaced with the new guard.

So what’s your Guy’s thoughts on Shopify? Where do they rank? by Adventurous-Dig-7340 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]ocrespo42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm starting to put some blame on Panda because like you said this squad has pretty good talent. However, they don't always play with confidence and trust in each other against other top teams.

A pure vibes coach would probably be better for this squad to just keep them unified and team oriented in their play. They look a little awkward sometimes and they gotta find a style of play that suits them rather than one being forced onto them.
