Rocket League<\/a> Championship Series’ own John “Johnnyboi_i” MacDonald tried to run back the success that last Interregional Show Matches 1<\/a> were last a little over a week ago.<\/p>\n

But the air felt differently, most likely due to the absence of the four-time Pierre “Turbopolsa” Silfver in the booth and on the pitch due to a tight schedule.<\/p>\n

The event now featured South Americans versus Europeans in old continent’s soil, in full-squad matches instead of building super teams with Guild vs True Neutral and White Demons vs FURIA, EU taking both Ws 3-0 and 3-2 respectively.<\/p>\n

With an underwhelming pre-show warming us up for the main event, a long-promised NA vs EU showdown on alternating servers, honestly it seemed like the hype and results were going to overthrow last event’s world-famous #Mickeymoon incident<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the North American corner stood G2’s Reed “Chicago” Wilen, FaZe Clan’s Austin “AYYJAYY” Aebi and Team Envy’s Massimo “Atomic” Franceschi squaring off against 2\/3s of BDS in Alex “Extra” Paoli and Evan “M0nkey M00n” Rogez plus Solary’s Maello “AztraL” Ernst.<\/p>\n

With loaded rosters and bragging rights at stakes, NA took a quick 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven series with EU clapping three games right back tying the match and taking it all the way to Game 7.<\/p>\n

Thing is, due to the alternating servers, Game 7 wouldn’t be possible to go underway without a serious advantage for either or team. <\/p>\n
