Dillon “Rizzo” Rizzo’s last dance<\/a> is already being decorated with a great Spring Split run and now a North American RLCS record.<\/p>\n

In an Upper Bracket Knockout Gauntlet match-up, Kansas City Pioneers went up against G2 Esports in a best-of-five series for a chance to advance to Championship Sunday.<\/p>\n

Only in Game 1, KCP and G2 broke the North American overtime RLCS record with an added time that lasted 12:02, a total of 17:02 of professional Rocket League play including regulation.<\/p>\n

The previous North American record was held by a 2019 match between NRG and now-extinct Cloud 9 in Season 7 NA with an 11:12 overtime<\/a>.<\/p>\n

KCP vs G2 is now the 3rd longest RLCS game ever only behind last weekend’s overtimes in consecutive matches with BDS shattering the world record twice in one day.<\/a><\/p>\n

KCP’s own Michael “Memory” Moss put an end to the record-breaking performance after a fifty-fifty was won by captain Jalen “rapid” Parker that set up his dunk over an awkward Rizzo.<\/p>\n

The OT win gave KCP an early lead in the best-of-five series that had players cracking and drying their fingers after the lengthy and sweaty match, yet G2 were far from done.<\/p>\n
