They don’t have to be flawless in SnD, but it will certainly help their chances. Despite some hiccups with Search and Destroy, their performance in Hardpoint can’t be overlooked. Hardpoint is clearly one of the team’s major strengths and it’s also the first mode usually played. One thing that the Rokkr head coach, Saintt, did well in week one was getting the players ready for Hardpoint. This certainly goes without saying, but strategizing accordingly will be key to the Rokkr’s success in College Park. Good coaching Image courtesy of Saintt’s Instagram page. And although there may be a slight advantage to not playing them early, it would be an immensely intriguing matchup. If both teams get hot, then there’s a good chance that they can meet in the finals. If they win, then either the Florida Mutineers or the London Royal Ravens will be their opponent. The FaZe will play in Group A and take on Optic Gaming Los Angeles. They will then take on the winner of the match between the Chicago Huntsmen and Toronto Ultra in Group B. Eight teams will square off, each in their own groups as they battle it out to reach the semi-final rounds.Īs mentioned, the Rokkr will take on the Legion first.

It’s just a matter of how well their chemistry runs at Gateway Center Arena on Feb. Not to mention, every player on the roster has had experiences playing at neutral or road environments, especially the veterans. And the fact that they won two of the events and finish runner-up in another, gives a tiny glimpse into how they handle those situations. Now, playing neutrally is different from playing on the road, but it’s still a good appetizer for away competition. They participated in five online tournaments together in pre-season and won two of them.

However, LANs are always tricky, especially in a league like this where there are home arena advantages left and right.
