maachV's esports newsletter

Hey guys! I know there's probably not many if any, people waiting for this weekly RLCS rundown but nonetheless I was going to try and get a mid-day friday upload to test the numbers but my real-life job came in the way, but next week I'm hoping for a Wednesday wrap-up of the NA finals this weekend. If anybody is reading this week in and week out just know I really appreciate you and trying to get/be better. For updates please follow me on twitter! @maachV now on with the recap... Game 1: Susquehanna Soniqs vs. Alpine esports               Game 1 starts with a lot of offensive pressure from the Soniqs, with the boost stealing to keep them in the offensive zone. They create many shot opportunities through passing, but the Alpine defense has thwarted everything. Majicbear gets the opening goal off a transition play left the Soniqs net exposed, leaving Alpine up 1-0 and looking great defensively. With just 15 seconds left in the game, the Soniqs get a li...

 Hey y'all! This weekend I got to watch the championship Sunday which had the quarterfinals all the way to the finals for the EU regional event #2. There were some great games this past weekend, and with the start of the NA regional event #2 this next weekend, there should be plenty more exciting RL content to watch! As per usual my stats are gotten from octane.gg and any images or bracket info was picked up from liquipedia.net. As well you can tweet at me @maachV on twitter! now on with the recap... Game 1: Vodafone Giants vs. FC Barcelona      The Giants have been on a tear in the EU region ever since RCD Espanyol dropped the roster, and they placed 4th in the spring series. I feel like they caught a lot of undeserved flack for their reactions after the 4th place finish because, in hindsight, they had the potential to go all the way in any tournament. They are hoping to finally get an A-tier tournament win, though, as they face Barca esports, who has been a d...

 Hey y'all! This week I was able to catch the main stream for Fall EU event 2 games on Sunday, which consisted of the group B games to get the last 8 of the top 16 teams for stage 2. I have made some adjustments, like highlighting the names of players to coordinate with their teams, to try and better the overall format for both new and experienced readers to RLEsports. As per usual my stats are gotten from octane.gg and any images or bracket info was picked up from liquipedia.net. As well you can tweet at me @maachV on twitter! now on with the recap... Series 1: Top Blokes vs. Fadeaway                 Both teams start with some solid back and forth before Tigreee scores the first game of the series for Fadeaway 2:06 into the game. Top Blokes are able to respond, though, with Archie demolishing the goalie to tap in an already sure shot from FlamE . Most of the pressure now is coming from Top Blokes, but outside of the on...
