Was dralii a secret ingredient of Team BDS? Can M0nkey M00n and ExoTiiK beat their fellow World Champion?

The battle between former Team BDS players became the main theme of the first European qualifier for the Birmingham Major. Once again, M0nkey M00n and ExoTiiK, who are part of Team Vitality now, couldn’t win over Karmine Corp, the team that acquired dralii. This competition continues in RLCS 2025 EU Open 2.

Sure, the Rocket League esports tournament has even more to offer. It’s one of three qualification events of the Rocket League Championship Series 2025 (RLCS 2025) Split 1. Valuable standing points are distributed to the top 16 teams. The participants want to land as high as possible to reach the top 4 on the general leaderboard and earn their spots at RLCS 2024 Major 1, in Birmingham, UK.

So far, only one rather underdog team parties with traditional top-rosters. The success of 100% from the previous qualifier makes RLCS 2025 Open 2 in Europe even more interesting.
