Scream, one of the best players coming from the Balkans, gave us some of his precious time and answered a couple of interesting questions about himself, his Rocket League start, as well as his career so far.
Our Alektech talked to him. You can watch the interview in this video:
If you liked the video, take a look at previous interviews with other players of our community:
After a long and difficult path through SERLC, we were greeted by an exciting Playoff phase!
The first match of the semi-finals had VeNoM Gaming (who picked up Bread eSports before the seventh matchday of League play) confidently winning against Fort Templar Titans with a 3-1 result, while the other match of the Playoffs surprised us. Fort Templar Renegades with the dangerous player Tokyo in their roster, as well as hoodied, whom we already know as last season's champion, were the favorites in this one. However, ZZZ eSports sweeped them with a clean 3-0 win, fighting their way all to the finals!
After their defeat in the semi finals, Fort Templar Renegades decided to forfeit the 3rd place match, giving away the position to the Titans, leaving us to finish this season with the Grand Finals.
VeNoM and ZZZ have already given us a fantastic match series in the League play phase. Back then, everything seemed to be going ZZZ's way, but VeNoM gathered the last atoms of their strength and turned the result to their advantage. However, the finals painted a completely different picture, as ZZZ started the series very aggressively right off the bat, leaving VeNoM shocked as it seems.
Apart from the attacking strategy, ZZZ have to be praised for their incredible consistency in rotations, shots and passes, which they used to overpower VeNoM gaming. The first match of the BO7 series already showed the dominance of ZZZ eSports, and by the end of the second match, it seemed that VeNoM gaming are standing completely lost against this opponent. The rest of the series is already history, and we can't skip mentioning the player who, as it seems, did most of the work: Scream.
With his outstanding performance, he has removed every doubt, and showed that he wants the Southeast Europe Champion title. With 8 goals in the finals, he showed his class, but also proved why has qualified for three RLCS Regional Events in the past.
ZZZ eSports have been awarded with 200€, while VeNoM gaming is getting a 100€ prize. The consolation price of 2000c will be given to Fort Templar Titans.

We are aware that many of our members would love to play in a competitive setting, but aren't ready for SERLC yet. Thus, we are starting the long awaited Torpedo League! It's a lower division of competition, that will be reserved for those who aren't on SERLC level yet, but are ready to play against similarly strong teams.
The rules of Torpedo League are based on the SERLC Rulebook. The additions for Torpedo League are:
SERLC participants (teams and players) are not allowed to partake in Torpedo League.
If it's required, registered teams will be seeded in several divisions. That means that we'll try to place them in groups with equally or closely matched opponents. That way we will attempt to avoid huge differences between skill levels, and by that we should get more interesting matches as well.
Players who would like to take part, but have no team, are allowed to sign up. They may be picked up by other teams, or placed in one with free slots.
Svi učesnici imaju pravo da streamaju utakmice Torpedo Lige, s tim da obavezno moraju staviti Logo i web adresu Lige Raketa na vidljivo mjesto streama.
Isto važi i druge videomaterijale.
The branding is available on THIS LINK.
These pictures are required to be placed on a visible place of the stream or video, and scaled in a way that makes it visible and possible to read them.
Registration for Torpedo League will be done via Challengermode.
As per usual, we are giving you two weeks time to sign up. In case we don't see enough registered teams (minimum of 8), we'll prolong the registration period.
Currenlty we are not ready to promise a prize pool, so Torpedo League is starting as a "for fun" competition. If there are any changes related to this, all participants will be informed timely.
Due to Ego Maniacs not showing up for their second match of SERLC Season 5, they will be DQ'd from the competition.
That means?
To fill up their spot in the League, we will be inviting the team that finished 9th in the qualification process for this season, which is Team Puncture.
How will this work out?
Team Puncture will play the remaining matches that Ego Maniacs were supposed to play. As for the matches that Ego Maniacs already played, they will be replayed off schedule.
What will happen to the members of Ego Maniacs?
As they have ruined the competitive integrity of the matches, they will not be allowed to join other teams for the remainder of Season 5, nor play in Torpedo League.
We would like to apologize to the competitors and viewers for this incident. We will do our best to retain the excitement and keep the League as competitive as it was so far!
First of all, we would like to use this opportunity and issue an apology to all teams and players who have qualified for SERLC Season 5. Despite our best efforts, we were not able to plan and schedule everything on time, so we are deeply sorry for the long wait. We hope you understand, and promise that we will do our best in the future to try and organize things in a timely manner. Thank you!
