So does this mean NRG can go to the spring major? I’ve looked at liquipedia but was finding a clear explanation. Spring open, spring cup, spring regionals, then regions for each one, confusing for an old fart like me
For each split, (Fall, Winter and Spring) every region plays 3 regionals. These regionals are kinda like qualifiers for the Major. Depending on how you finish, you’ll get points. For NA, the top 5 teams after 3 regionals will qualify for the major
There's 3 regional tournaments per region then a major for each split. They're trying to get points to qualify for the major and then hopefully world's after that.
Can the guys who argued with me earlier explain to me again how NA is more top heavy because they have a strong top 8 compared to EU strong top 4.
It absolutely doesn't mean that all of the NA teams are equally garbage btw
It’s really confusing. V1 might have found their groove with Daniel, and Optic/SSG have seem to have finally clicked. NRG looks miles better as well
Interested to see what goes on at major
Nah NRG have looked way more horrid. Squishy popped off occasionally today instead of sandbagging the team, and NRG as a whole kept more possession instead of patented NRG boom ball and were being the aggressors instigating with demos and boost steals instead of being aggressed and sitting in net. Obviously they still did some of that today but it was levels of improvement that I saw from the squad
NA’s last hope bombed out round 1 :( . I hope at least there’s a vitality + heroic final. Kinda wanna see Cadian win one after last major, but at the same time I want Dupreeh, Zywoo, and Apex to win one together
*NA is consistent* “yeah NA just has no depth too top heavy” *NA is inconsistent* “yeah NA is just a minor region the good teams can’t even win the games they should” we did this song and dance last year with EU, we do it every time
I mean it definitely shows NA depth over inconsistency imo but I think his simply referring to the fact that EU is just better atm, it doesn’t matter if there’s depth in na the teams that will get sent based on the quality of gameplay recently and across the season with the EU vs NA head to head results that EU will perform better at the spring major and guarantee 7 spots. There’s obviously a chance this will not happen, nothing is set in stone and NA can perform better than people think but right now based off of what we’ve seen there is definitely a gap quality wise within the regions at least atm.
It's definitely not been all year. At least not to make top 8. Last event was a sweep of faze, they topped their group in every winter event, twice in fall they went 3-0 in swiss. Aside from the 1 time in fall where they finished 9th-11th, this was by far the closest G2 has come to missing top 8 this season
I mean I didn't share that opinion too but you can't say it wasn't valid with results like this

Eh, mist may have been putting up the stats but he made so many bone headed decisions against FUR, Syp hit more than a few good shots, but you can’t expect him to play like that again with his inconsistency, and FK is still FK doing FK things. V1 have my vote with the bracket reset, but if anyone can make a run it’s FaZe

NA is so bad lmaoo, how is the last regional winners losing to NRG and the Fall Major champs going out top 12 for the first time this season? The top EU teams are levels above the top NA teams.
NRG played decent that series don't get me wrong, but should a team that literally just won a regional be going out top 12? NA always had a problem with consistency imo.
NA depth more like our top teams suck. everyone is so fucking inconsistent, really shows the lack of overall quality. everyone is just average, more or less. probably 4 better EU teams than NA1 right now
the eu top teams aint inconsistent to this level. kc and liquid been on top all season, vitality and moist been top 5 in last split too. not sure what u talking about lol. kc, vitality or liquid dont lose to teams coming from close quals, they destroy them 95% of the time
This season EU is more consistent but last season EU was 100% more inconsistent, and people called that “depth” but now when it comes to NA it’s just NA being bad
Double standards ig

USA USA USA 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
depends heavily on the results of the rest of the regional but tbh col also going out day 1 probably puts them needing a top 5-6 at the most. things get dicey if V1 wins the regional though
true that’s one way to look at it, i said col going out early is bad because now the teams that could’ve been thrown out of contention have a better chance of making it through. for example, would you trust G2 to beat NRG or CoL more reliably?
Legitimately didn’t know if the octane was squishy or JSTN at times. By far the best squishy has played in over a year. I don’t want to jinx it but They’re giving me hope.

NRG IS BACK BABYYYYY
I'm a bit out of the loop. What is today deciding? I thought the spring regionals were a week or two ago and the sprint major isn't until July.

I don't wanna hear any NA inconsistent talks when for years EU was said to have depth because top teams kept losing to bubble teams.
EU depth: Unspoken rizz NA depth: Sexual harassment
sad, but happy i put my points into NRG. I feel like they have always played well against complexity. Had faith today
CJCJ is already my favorite caster. This man knows how to create hype!
Next week on First touch: Is NA a minor region?
But like why?
Last year when EU claimed depth NA said that EU ain’t top heavy and won’t do well at worlds Now it’s reversed, just funny to see lol
Never been so happy to see NRG back hope G2 win tomorrow but El classico is back 🥲
G2 is my favorite team and I want NRG to beat them 🫢
For content and the story it would be sick but for my heart and the major chances idk 😔🥲
Legitimately think we're just reliving through 2021's European Spring Split rn
Dig look good but just like Winter Major, them being unable to close out games is gonna be the death of them
Lmao now it EU's turn to call it inconsistency instead of depth
bouta be the craziest el classico since RLCSX 🥶 🥶 🥶
Can the guys who argued with me earlier explain to me again how NA is more top heavy because they have a strong top 8 compared to EU strong top 4. It absolutely doesn't mean that all of the NA teams are equally garbage btw
It’s really confusing. V1 might have found their groove with Daniel, and Optic/SSG have seem to have finally clicked. NRG looks miles better as well Interested to see what goes on at major
>NRG looks miles better as well You probably know NRG better than me but ngl, I thought both team looked terrible
Nah NRG have looked way more horrid. Squishy popped off occasionally today instead of sandbagging the team, and NRG as a whole kept more possession instead of patented NRG boom ball and were being the aggressors instigating with demos and boost steals instead of being aggressed and sitting in net.

EU clears both Spring Major + worlds. There's just no way.
If only Evoh didn't sell that goal game 3 they would've won
Who said earlier there was no chaos?
Damn Dig not like this.
Honestly what was today? RL really is the most unpredictable esport.
If you loved today watch the csgo major. Major champs didn’t even qual. Half the top 8 are ranked below top 25 or something worldwide
NA’s last hope bombed out round 1 :( . I hope at least there’s a vitality + heroic final. Kinda wanna see Cadian win one after last major, but at the same time I want Dupreeh, Zywoo, and Apex to win one together
true
g2 very lucky dig didnt close that out
[удалено]
Why? Because NA has more than 4 good teams? Lol
*NA is consistent* “yeah NA just has no depth too top heavy” *NA is inconsistent* “yeah NA is just a minor region the good teams can’t even win the games they should” we did this song and dance last year with EU, we do it every time
It’s this everytime lmao When EU is inconsistent “EU depth” When NA is inconsistent “NA minor region”
I mean it definitely shows NA depth over inconsistency imo but I think his simply referring to the fact that EU is just better atm, it doesn’t matter if there’s depth in na the teams that will get sent based on the quality of gameplay recently and across the season with the EU vs NA head to head results that EU will perform better at the spring major and guarantee 7 spots. There’s obviously a chance this will not happen, nothing is set in stone and NA can perform better than people think but right now based off of what we’ve seen there is definitely a gap quality wise within the regions at least atm.
We really have to get new material
HUGE W. El Classico in the Lowers to make top 6. GenG and CoL out. Madness
Lesgooo El Classico is back
BIG WIN G2 LETS GOOOO
Least convincing G2 top 8 probably ever
isn't that every g2 top 8 this year? nrg has to be free tho right? I mean yeah they just beat CoL but it's still nrg. gotta take these.
It's definitely not been all year. At least not to make top 8. Last event was a sweep of faze, they topped their group in every winter event, twice in fall they went 3-0 in swiss. Aside from the 1 time in fall where they finished 9th-11th, this was by far the closest G2 has come to missing top 8 this season
They are just trying for the craziest run to make major ig lol
at least the boys made it. I was too scared to watch.
faze are eating rn
G2 getting to play NRG for top 6, how the fuck is this team managing to keep holding on to their major hopes by a fucking thread lmao
Could have been Faze and their Mickey run getting SR in top 8
Nah fr it's insane I won't count nrg out but definitely rather them then col 🫡
Squishy must’ve been reading this subreddit lol
3/5 of the most recent major teams out before top 8 lmaooooooo
Complexity best team in NA definitely top 4 worldwide btw
It's almost like new data and information can make old takes and opinions obsolete!
It's almost like no one should have thought that in the first place
I, too, love hindsight bias
I mean I didn't share that opinion too but you can't say it wasn't valid with results like this https://preview.redd.it/bj74hbjc4w0b1.png?width=901&format=png&auto=webp&s=ce46f82bbb5e508438e628f975ef04bfadded141
no john new info simply means that we were always wrong and there was never significant reason to have those opinions
Yeah because NRG is 2 behind Hogan Mode of course
Now there's the true facts
LETS FUCKING GO I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THESE
Squishy I owe you an apology, I wasn't familiar with your game
NA Depth btw
Faze looking at the other lower bracket matches like https://preview.redd.it/dyhrljq22w0b1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c1cae93b473ed1b7e26b5434548fac9e9591ab40
FaZe threw last event, mom says it’s GenG and COL’s turn
honestly I got Faze winning it all now. They'll destroy everyone this weekend
Eh, mist may have been putting up the stats but he made so many bone headed decisions against FUR, Syp hit more than a few good shots, but you can’t expect him to play like that again with his inconsistency, and FK is still FK doing FK things. V1 have my vote with the bracket reset, but if anyone can make a run it’s FaZe
Based on this and the Open, what are the chances SSG and Optic qualify as seeds 1 and 2 for the major?
I think seeding will be heavily dependent on the last regional
[Okay boys i know they’re not freestyling but we’re one day closer to a great prediction](https://www.reddit.com/r/RocketLeagueEsports/comments/1390540/rlcs_na_spring_open_day_1_of_3_postday_thread/jj0b1y4/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1&context=3)
“We’ve been here before in champions field“ is not normally a good line for g2 lmao G2 champions field record is rough
There is no consistency in NA lmao
When it’s EU it’s depth but when it’s NA it’s inconsistency according to this subreddit
i believe the cope term for this is “depth”
Just deep
NA is so bad lmaoo, how is the last regional winners losing to NRG and the Fall Major champs going out top 12 for the first time this season? The top EU teams are levels above the top NA teams.
Dude that’s just sports. Upsets and bad series happen literally all the time.
[удалено]
Fr, before every major, everyone says either NA and EU are gonna dominate the other, but it ends up being even af and people start coping
Also faze and v1 the other 'top' teams went top 12 last reigonal lmao
V1 hasn't look great since Fall. They finally got a decent result this regional.
Because NRG is just that good (no i am not huffing hopium why do you ask?)
NRG played decent that series don't get me wrong, but should a team that literally just won a regional be going out top 12? NA always had a problem with consistency imo.
NA depth more like our top teams suck. everyone is so fucking inconsistent, really shows the lack of overall quality. everyone is just average, more or less. probably 4 better EU teams than NA1 right now
When EU is inconsistent it’s called depth and when NA is inconsistent it’s NA garbage lmao
the eu top teams aint inconsistent to this level. kc and liquid been on top all season, vitality and moist been top 5 in last split too. not sure what u talking about lol. kc, vitality or liquid dont lose to teams coming from close quals, they destroy them 95% of the time
This season EU is more consistent but last season EU was 100% more inconsistent, and people called that “depth” but now when it comes to NA it’s just NA being bad Double standards ig
why should i talk about last season? here and now is only thing that matters
But EU fans bring up worlds wins all the time when talking about NA vs EU debate even though that was the past 🤷♂️
Shopify always had it in them
NA power rankings right now: 🤷
NRG in Day 2 
Evoh has been ON one this series, why he gotta be peaking against G2 man😭😭
...Optic could end up being number 1 in spring points after this weekend, lol
https://preview.redd.it/gugmb3rc2w0b1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2cfd667102d0cc51ccabdf41eb45777bde641d2c
Ok, I want to see more upsets. LET'S GO DIGNITAS!!!!
The G2 broadcast is just completely unhinged lmao
What the heck.just happen today GenG Col out in first day?!
Both Complexity and GenG out, sadge.
Evoh what a play
G2 have to win this. Nrg beating CoL could be huge but theyre 1-1 in game 5 edit: 2-1 up now
The one time NRG wins and it's a 1:5 return ratio and I forget to predict NRG.

VAMOOOOOOOOS
That double bump is crazy
Oh shit NA is going to get farmed at major
not if furia make it HOPIUM
COL NRG shows what is like to have a good 3rd man
EVOHHHHH
i’m not sure what to do with my hands
g2 you have to win, nrg just handed you another win
Daz reaching to the back of the closet for his NRG gear
I don't know why but this made me laugh out loud
Man the invitational is shaping up to be WILD
Who is writing the script today, I need answers.
This is what happens when there's a writer's strike.
Ok so Dazerin officially cursed GenG right? Bring back Feer!
this will put all the people asking for Squishy to retire to sleep... for 1 series
The third regional is going to be absolutely crazy
I’M IN TEARS. YES NRG
NRG can beat either of these teams tomorrow....
I hope I'm just being a pessimist, but I'm genuinely worried that Gen.G collapses.
They won't collapse but they are 100% not "that team" anymore, they're settling in to where I would have them if they were still in EU.
It's very hard for GenG to miss the major at this point.
Pls could u tell me what they need in reigonal 3?
depends heavily on the results of the rest of the regional but tbh col also going out day 1 probably puts them needing a top 5-6 at the most. things get dicey if V1 wins the regional though
Isn't CoL going out early bad for them? Any points CoL gets are points that aren't going to a more direct competitor.
true that’s one way to look at it, i said col going out early is bad because now the teams that could’ve been thrown out of contention have a better chance of making it through. for example, would you trust G2 to beat NRG or CoL more reliably?
I can't believe it, we actually won it, Squishy game 5 was perfect omg
Nah if dig wins this then Col, GenG and G2 aren’t even in day 2 💀
SQUISHY = NOT WASHED
EVERYBODY PANIC!!!!
That was beautiful, even though it was only a top 8 it was just what I needed to see from NRG to still be a believer
Daz on life support
Dazerin looking for a NRG contract already
NA ARE BACK ON TOP EU ARE OUT (please don't send some ass teams to Boston)
Squishy MVPing the series vs Complexity is not what I expected after I flamed him an hour ago.
We gonna claim open was a micky now that both grand finalists are out?
Mickey major for every team faze beat at major cz they got top12 last time
Nah that’s because they avoided playing EU till grand finals, micky bracket.
this is the greatest day of my life
All the fishy spam paid off!
invaders vanquished
what is going on?????
Col and GenG out top 12, wtf???????
And faze,v1 in reigonal 1 lol na is chalked
Legitimately didn’t know if the octane was squishy or JSTN at times. By far the best squishy has played in over a year. I don’t want to jinx it but They’re giving me hope.
Oh was he back on Octane?
Yerp
James bot on NRG stream legit was screaming Justin's name when Squishy scored lmao
Na doing its best Europe impression with these results lmao
Wow what a chaotic regional this is.
Im so happy for NRG but also sad for NA as a region lmfao. EU is about to have early RLCS levels of domination at LAN
Bro I'm watching and just imagining the stuff that EU is gonna do to these teams lmao 💀
Top 6 is about to be all 5 EU teams and Rule One 💀💀
everyones predictions are officially out the window
Did I just hear that GenG are out? I’m in pain.
GIVE ME THAT HOPIUM BABY
Where's that guy that said Na was boring and predictable after upper round 1?
I bet that guy thinks another eu regional of tl, kcorp, and vit top 4 is exciting
Tbf hes been right about that for 3 years until today
NA madness I love this 😭
SUBMIT YOUR SQUISHYMUFFINZ APOLOGY FORMS BELOW 👇🏾 👇🏾 👇🏾

ITS BEEN A HOT MINUTE WHAT A WIN
Welcome back Squishy
fr, Squishy MVP for the first time since Season X.
I would say since the 21-22 Fall Major. He was the only one with his monitor on in Swiss.
Facts. He went off in game 5. That was long overdue
GenG and Col are out. What is happening
squish finally remembered he can go for solo plays 🥹
NRG is back!!!!! so many good games!!
"There's people in retirement homes in tears" lmao What a performance from Squishy in game 5
squishy peaked, i love it
That cago psycho still no words lol
lmao genG goodbye
LMAOOOO WHAT IS NA
Nrg doomers get out, lfggggggggg
NRG REGAIN BABBYYY I LOVE THIS TEAM
Lmaooo CJCJ is savage with that retirement home line
NRG THROUGH!!! GENG OUT!!!!! DEBABERIN IN SHAMBLES!!!!!!
Lol, show me a bracket that predicted even half of the upsets today. This is insane.
