๐๏ธ Excited to showcase my new motion reel featuring selected works from the last couple of years. It's been almost 2 years since my previous one and it's been so cool to see the growth and there's still more to go!. Thanks for watching - likes and RTs are appreciated! ๐ค๐พ๐งก

The Intel World Open will mark the first truly international event for @RocketLeague / @RLEsports. That also means new looks, right?. Here are my concepts for jerseys, decals, and banners for future RL National Teams. RT + Likes always appreciated. ๐ค๐พ๐งก. ๐บ๐ธ โข ๐จ๐ฆ โข ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ โข ๐ซ๐ท

Forever dreaming of an Esports Shop that's not timed, but rather you can get what you want, whenever you want. Also, I hope with the next update we see an expansion on esports items. Team specific avatar borders, sticker/decals, menu customization, home/away skins, and more. ๐ค๐พ

I've always been a huge fan of how certain CS:GO events make changes to the HUD to fit their branding style. So, here's a concept I came up with for Rocket League that fits the aesthetic for RLCS a little bit more. RT + Likes are always appreciated. ๐ค๐พ๐งก

Another tidbit of information regarding this: Comm was only made aware of this decision by V1 a couple of days ago while he was literally on vacation. That leaves him under a week to find a new team. That's just unacceptable.
Version1 is set to sign @riseRL_ of Moist Esports to replace comm heading into the #RLCS 2022-23 Winter Split. @achilles_XF & @adam_baguette reporting:

Retals is, obviously, still contracted under Spacestation (until 2023). He's likely the odd-man out, but the organization has protections in place to keep him from being outright kicked. His teammates have the power to not play with him, but not nullify his contract.
Just to clear things up around our Rocket League team. retals was not kicked and nothing has been officially decided by SSG on the future of the team. We will work with each individual player on the team to decide our next steps. We wish this would have been handled better.

In a scene of mostly Octane / Dominus mains, the Fennec managed to wiggle into the meta and become a mainstay. So, I think itโs only right that I made some esports decals (based on the current ones) for the newly beloved battle car. RTs + Likes always appreciated. ๐ค๐พ๐งก. 1 //

The Peeps brand is one of the most iconic non-organization brands in Rocket League and beloved by many. The recent FaZe drop was a beautiful tribute to a now closed chapter. To assume Iโm against it and unwilling to find a resolution is just not true.

Apparently, the Queso roster will potentially be bought out by another org (multiple suitors) and some of the orgs inquiring donโt want to pay a coach. Might be alone in this, but I find it a little weird that Nick has been prematurely removed before anything has been finalized.
Alright well, I am now LFT. Any teams that want to try me out as a coach let me know. RLCS 2021-2022.2x Regional Champ.1x Regional Grand Finalist.1x Major Grand Finalist. RLCS X .1x Regional Champ.2x Regional Grand Finalist.1x Major Grand Finalist.

@1jayski Brother we were brought the idea from the team themselves under the impression they owned the logo. We deleted the posts, are removing it from the website and cancelled the orders and arenโt making $1 off of it. Apologies for the issue but solved it as soon as I saw this.

Want to issue an apology to the people at V1 for preemptively putting out this info โ here's some clarity from their end:. - Rise was not known to be an option until very recently. - Once team was told by V1 that a move was logistically possible they informed Comm asap. (1/2).
Another tidbit of information regarding this: Comm was only made aware of this decision by V1 a couple of days ago while he was literally on vacation. That leaves him under a week to find a new team. That's just unacceptable.
