Rocket League Championship Series
The Rocket League Championship Series, also known as the RLCS, is the Psyonix funded Rocket League league. The competition began in Spring 2016 with its inaugural season giving an opportunity for the top North American and European teams to fight for their share of the $75,000 USD prize pool. The first World Championship was hosted in Los Angeles, California, with its reappearance during the Season 3 World Championship, between the first Finals taking place in Europe, held in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Season 3 of the RLCS introduced the 3rd region to join the league, Oceania. This therefore extended the number of spots for the World Championship from 8 teams to 10. The Oceania region League Play is managed by Throwdown Esports.
Rocket League Rival Series has been created prior to the start of Season 4 of RLCS as a second division of the series. This promoted a widely requested structure of the championship series, firstly giving a chance for RLCS teams to stay and secure their spot in the next season of the competition by their performance, and secondly supporting the lower tier teams aside from RLCS to give them an opportunity of being promoted to the top tier division by their efforts and accomplishments.
Since the RLCS kicked off in 2016, the community played a big part in extending the prize pool of the competition. By Season 5, the current prize pool is higher than Season 1 by $325,000 USD.
As of Season 5, the RLCS is managed by Psyonix, instead of Twitch.[1]
History[edit]
Season 1[edit]
RLCS Season 1 was Rocket League's biggest tournament at the time, and there was a lot of hype surrounding many of the teams. FlipSid3 Tactics and Northern Gaming had come out on top in the two EU qualifiers, while iBUYPOWER and Kings of Urban took home the NA qualifiers.
The first round would see an even split between NA and EU, with underdog team The Flying Dutchmen, who barely made it to the finals at all after Supersonic Avengers came close to stealing their spot, managed to upset the NA #1 seed Kings of Urban, while iBP, who were playing with substitute 0ver Zer0 instead of star player Gambit, managed to overcome F3. Elsewhere, Exodus took down Mock-It in a 3-0 sweep while Northern Gaming also managed to sweep Genesis.
This would pit KoU against F3, where KoU would crash out in last place with a 3-1 defeat. Meanwhile, Northern Gaming and iBuyPower progressed to the upper bracket finals, with iBP taking a 4-2 victory. NG couldn't seem to recover and were beaten 4-1 by a F3 team on a mission to power through the lower bracket and into the grand finals, where they would face iBP once again. In an incredibly close series, iBP managed to close out a 4-2 victory and win the first season of the RLCS
Season 2[edit]
Europe[edit]
Europe saw many of the same teams qualify once again, and with one single league play instead of the two qualifiers NG and F3 would take the top two spots (amid some controversy surrounding the rules of tiebreakers) and leave Mock-It, Precision Z, Red Eye and REUNITED (who were the former Supersonic Avengers squad), to battle for the remaining two spots. In stage one of the playoffs, Precision Z and Mock-It would qualify for LAN, while Doomsee, Snaski and ELMP would once again be watching from the sidelines.
North America[edit]
North America saw the world champions (now under G2 Esports and with 0Ver Zer0 as a starter) struggle in league play, and they would eventually miss out on the playoffs altogether. Exodus (now under Orbit eSports) would take first place, with Kings of Urban (Now under NRG eSports) taking second. Genesis and Take 3 would take the two remaining LAN spots, and would end up meeting again for the third place playoff, where Genesis took the win while NRG beat Orbit to take first seed for North America once again
LAN[edit]
The European teams would come out fighting as they took all four series' in the upper bracket, including an incredible reverse sweep from Mock-It against Orbit, who would then crash out of the tournament against Take 3. Another victory for Mock-It over F3 meant that they had to play against Take 3 again, who they then dispatched with a 3-0 sweep. After this series, F3 had another Lower Bracket Final against Northern Gaming, which they won again to put them up against Mock-It. In the Grand Finals, F3 managed to win back-to-back series' to take home the title of Season 2

Team Participation - League Play[edit]
Up to RLCS Season 5, 75 teams have participated in the League Play stage of RLCS around the world.
From Season 1 to 3, every team was required to qualify through the open qualifier and play-ins no matter whether they participated previously or won the World Championship.
Top 2 teams in each region (as well as World Champions) in Season 3 got handed an automatic place in the next season of the championship series. From Season 4, Top 6 teams in each region earn a spot in the next season, while the bottom two teams take on the top two teams of Rocket League Rival Series to determine any promotions and relegations.
FlipSid3 Tactics is the only team to have participated in every League Play season of RLCS.
Note: The results are based on the aftermath of the Regional Championship, not end of the Regular Season in League Play.

Team Participation - World Championship[edit]
Altogether from 5 World Championships, 32 teams have participated in at least one in RLCS.
Mock-it eSports and NRG have made the most appearances at a World Championship, with a grand total of 4 times while representing their regions respectfully.
RLCS Season 1 had a significant difference in terms of how teams qualified for the World Championship, participating in a 2 stage round robin to gain the most points from winning separate games. There was no Regional Championship during that season.
