Volume 8 of our weekly Rocket League Best and Worst Series is here! As usual, we are here to bring you three great pieces of Rocket League content, each week with a different theme. This week it's time for the RLCS X Episode you've all been waiting for – don't you love that the RLCS X Championships are but a stone's throw away? Well, if you do, then here are three great plays from the recent Spring Split Regionals that you should totally see! Enough blabbering, though. Let's dive straight into EarlyGame's Rocket League Best & Worst Volume 8!

Let's be real: the last few weeks have been a little bit weird. First we found ourselves in the hands of another writer, then we found ourselves moistening our oysters with some delicious plays. This time? We're going to be a bit mature. We are going to be a bit calm. You could say: the bland episode, the episode with few words, the episode with very little to say, the episode does little bit deliver sweet, delicious plays. It's going to be salty, it's going to be wild, it's going to be none of those things, it's EarlyGame's Rocket League Best & Worst Volume 8: the RLCS X Episode!

Well then, it's time, are you ready? Here is Volume 8 of EarlyGame's Rocket League Best & Worst Series...

Rocket League Best & Worst Vol. 8: The One with the Americans

That's right, NRG won their second ever North American Major. That's pretty major, ain't it? (get it?) Oh, and keep in mind: they survived a ten-minute over-time. Pretty cool. Yep. That's it. Keep watching. Yeah!

Rocket League Best & Worst Vol. 8: The One with the Wild Card

Not a score. Just a nice piece of defensive play. As the tweet says, a "brick wall defense". Intense, fabulous, fun, fantastical, alliterative, fabtastic, there are many words to describe this, but we're keeping it short. There you go. The last Rocket League Best & Worst video in Episode 8. Great.
