  • Episode 67: On Techs and TEI's

    Disclaimer: We recorded this episode before the Scrub Killa news from yesterday. Some of the info in this episode is slightly outdated.

    We're into week 2 of lockdown, and still, the online competitions continue in Rocket League. We're breaking down the results from TEI, RLRS, and RLCS and we're having a discussion on Tech pauses in official matches, with a major PC issue hurting WeDemGirlz in the Rival Series.
