Youtube VOD spoiler-guard
I've made a Chrome extension which hides timestamps for selected channels on Youtube. The purpose is to be able to watch (e)-sport VODs without the length of the video spoiling the results. I'm currently enjoying it for the ATR cup matches, and I thought that some of you would like it as well.
The extension is called TimeOff Youtube. Give it a try and bring back the suspense. :)

Beastmode dodging EWC probably cost G2 1.5 million $, now the team gets dropped for economic reasons
I was reminded of this fact in an interview done by the CEO of G2 today (in french).
Basically Beastmode announced he wouldnt go to the EWC because the travel was too long and he didn't feel like doing it alone. G2 had to pick Nass to replace him last minute and they lost against falcons in semis.
Thing is, if they just won this one match, G2 would have ended in 3RD place instead of 9th in the global ranking and would have secured an additional 1.5 million in cp.
Am I crazy to believe that this guy just lost not only his own job but also his tm8's and coach job out of pure lazyness ?

Great video from Lawler talking about the G2 situation as well as RLEsports in general
https://youtu.be/UuLkseFJZLY?si=5mPIqUu2SJ2IBX-s
Just thought I’d share this video because I think it deserves a lot of attention. He’s always seemingly very level headed about these things

Best team in EU/NA in the 2024 season.
I've improved the formula i used to calculate what were the best team in EU/NA in the 2024 season :
-Numbers of games played no longer count in the formula, only the winrate.
-Worlds has more weight than the other Lans
Here's the new formula :
Points=({total series}*{series winrate}}+3*{games winrate})*2+({eu/na qualifier appearence}*(1+{eu/na qualifier wins})+{lan appearence}*(1+{lan wins})*3+(1+{worlds appearence})*8)*10
Anyway here's the top 12 in EU :
And the top 12 in NA :

Welp... now that NIP might be going to EU, where would you like to see Swifft go?

RLFS S3: Sim 11 [Finals]
The Rocket League Fantasy Series (RLFS) is a 16-team Rocket League Tournament where this subreddit decides the odds each team has of winning the series through a weighted-voting system.
Teams were drafted before the first regionals were played, and you can view the results of the draft, the rosters of all RLFS teams, and our schedule for the RLFS tournament in this Google Sheet.
If you'd like to know how the 'win % per-game' was calculated, click on this Final Thread link and search for a comment I make in that thread where I adjust the polling numbers to our weighted voting system.

Best European teams for the 2023-2024 season (with formula)
So i've calculated what were the best team in EU in the 2024 season using a formula (not perfect but i tried my best, here it is :
Points=({total series}*{series winrate}}+{total games}*{games winrate}*0,05)*2+({eu qualifier appearence}*(1+{eu qualifier wins})+{lan appearence}*(1+{lan wins})*3)*10
I tried to balance the stats i had to make it the most fair as possible but i didn't have that much diferents stats, i did not include the placement in each tournament but it is compensated by the numbers of series.
Erratum : it's the 2024 not the 2023-2024
I might do the same for other regions if I have time.
Here are the results :
Here is the leaderboard of all team that made at least one open qualifier :

Which players do you think could be top tier player/show a lot more if they actually cared about the game? (Read desc)
A weird question, but let me elaborate:
Obviously every pro that is signed by an org does care about the game, it’s their job. But there’s a difference between doing your job, and actually striving to be the best
If u want a reference due to my horrible wording, a player like Mist is a good example. Clearly has the talent to be top tier, but lacks the passion to be the best, so as of right now, isn’t talked about, but if he did regain passion, he would be a relevant threat again, he’s shown this before when back at optic, then when he joined faze he got the defensive mvp at major 2
