SWC 2018: Round 2 - Rocket League

Published , by Asif Khan

The field had been narrowed down to thirty-two players after Round one of the Shacknews World Championship. Our intrepid electronic sportsman Blake Morse was joined by Shacknews intern Donovan Erskine and myself to commentate on Rocket League. The game is a mighty test of skill as it is incredibly easy to pick up and play yet super difficult to master. Players had to keep their wits in order to advance to the round of 16 and keep their hopes alive. WIth a $50,000 prize pool, nerves were certainly starting to play a major role in this round of the electronic sports tournament. Please take a look.
