Geography nerds getting out of the van in slow mo like they're elite athletes is the best thing I've ever seen.

[@CoolSurvivor]

Was a very enjoyable watch, especially due to the cast which really made the tournament stand out to me

[@leandrusguy144]

Lmao hi

[@robo567]

that last second switch from spain to turkey by mada was the most cracked thing i’ve seen in geoguessr.

[@ChicagoGeographer]

wolftrekker vs crookst was such an insane match I still can't get over that

[@julian7306]

crookst was surprisingly promissing

[@buni3629]

@@julian7306 People in the Scene knew that he's pretty damn cracked. I heard from Kodiak beforehand that crookst was definitely one of the opponents that scared him

[@luminouskiwi1104]

⁠​⁠@@julian7306yeah when you see log7 show up as your opponent you kinda know you’re cooked

[@mcbaws21]

the fact lennli got undone by surprise turkey… couldn’t have met a more poetic end

[@captainobvious8037]

Rainbolt is single handedly responsible for the popularity of this game.

[@Zoehere]

lennli the only one with unique style, and actually dressed up for a literal televised competition.... could not say the rest for literally everyone else 😭

[@theextremeloader1]

chat was so mean to topotic feelsbad

[@FiveMissiles]

fr i was happy to see a spaniard win

[@warrier705]

It was really bad to see. Bro's played the matches of his life and was a deserved winner but the congrats were limited to the Spaniards in the live chat it felt like

[@slabbadanks5829]

Yeah its unfortunate having normies come into the stream during big events

[@PardaloteGeo]

Yeah, chat was toxic af. I found Topotic pretty bloody endearing. And seeing how happy he was at times was just fantastic.

[@enigmatic_eight]

Agreed. I was happy to see topotic win. Good for him.

[@wernerlindorfer3693]

The condensed preshow is goated.

[@kayenby]

crookst really out here doing all the side quests

[@kenohnegulle]

The EMEA was so fun to watch especially with your commentary tysm you are the best!

[@kareliask]

Thanks for these recaps, they're appreciated.

[@misstiger6126]

Loved the commentary on this turnament! Made it really enjoyable even you dont know much about the geoguessor lore like me

[@eloiseharland9609]

excellent video!! was glued to my screen the whole time, the turkey clutch was insane

[@lucabaracuda987]

LENNLI most likable guy... we were prob friends previous lives.

[@mwshiftytoo]

You aint the main character bub

[@Bambani-tr7jw]

I just wanna be as cool as lennli man Bro has an immaculate fashion sense

[@mihail3600]

,,Weakness: talking to women" they did NOT have to bro like that 💀😭 (its still true)

I think he told them to write that lol

Im so happy geoguessr is taking on the professional scene! While in highschool I played a ton, so I know how hard all this really is! can't wait for more :)

[@dip4717]

Really good edit, entertaining to watch bc it's funny and has a lot of good plays

[@palmtreegal3]

So fun to watch! Glad zi8gzag and cg were able to cast some! They were great

[@martinrsten7252]

Thx for recapping the tourney, good vid

[@CountFab]

I'm looking forward to more Mada surprises, I love underdog stories.

[@MathGeniusGD]

This is what E-Sports should strive to be. Make it humorous but also have the intense and exciting moments. Absolutely love it 💙

[@matsubaRELLA]

Hi

​@@matsubaRELLA hi Snakepdot7665

[@ReddingCS]

8:51😭😭 why did he pat him like that

[@slabbadanks5829]

dude this tournament was so good, you can really feel it maturing into what it should be now. Also I would like to point out there was another round where rainbolt called ecuador and no-one else got it

[@Jas61893]

I watched the whole thing. It was awesome!

[@Megusaka]

love seeing the new faces, great matches from everyone

[@homloklebenyterapia9790]

És egyből 2 magyar! Nagyok vagytok srácok!

[@KholdStare54]

Thank you! The tournament airs like 4 am my time and I can't find time to watch.

[@proddreamatnight]

You're such a sick caster dude

[@filipbunalti]

I didn't know Rainbolt was literally Rainbolt's last name. 💀 I wish my last name (or first name) was as cool as that.

[@CarstenSvendsen]

Wow, that would have taken absolute ages to crop this down from 16 hours!

[@Booshort1113]

Bro the blast from the past I got from “MOVE. THAT. BUS.”

[@johnlime1469]

I really liked the NA casting as well when I saw some of it live. It would be cool to have highlights for that one too.

[@NoblePineapples]

I never would have expected my city to be in a geoguesser tournament. That is so cool.

[@Nec._.]

ngl bro is very majestic

[@ThomasLiljeruhm]

It crazy that Lennli won't be in the World Cup

[@shins_clips]

“Tomorrow is a noggin using day”

[@roevsvett]

"Move that bus" is my favourite moment. Legend.

[@sirgappo3195]

Please don’t guess South Africa when it’s Mexico again

[@ReconnectRyan]

4:16 “when do we get the griddy in geoguessr” - Rainbolt 2024

[@cptleapfrog]

Loved the move that bus reference

[@daphnea5447]

I’m a simple woman……… I see rainbolt upload. I click.

[@lucabaracuda987]

i was impressed with CROOKST

[@OtesOtesOtes]

rock paper scissors handshake is truly epic!

[@FiddyStump-tn6kk]

I like how they've got their own Aegis. We the new international now bois, haha.

[@miqszx]

i think i speak for everyone when i say that crookst vs wolftrekker nmpz was crazyyy

[@okolenmi7511]

25:09 - the biggest weakness of Lennli

[@dariusm.8316]

Holy shit that mada lennli series was sick

[@Denmark_Dan]

Incredible coverage all tournament from everyone. And as a Dane that has and still is trying to teach Danish words to multiple, I agree with Rainbolt. Danish is up there with Swedish

[@mollym450]

So good

[@KRS_two]

The reigning World Champ having to qualify needs to change. He should get an automatic invite.

[@thomasov2004]

I didn't see alot of netherlands in the competition whilst there were alot of thailand and the balkans. Is that because the netherlands is too easy?

[@cyarutchiii]

4:35 why was that enough? Edit: because round 10 is the final round, I see.

[@isabellal1434]

This vid has no business being as funny as it is

[@TheSanjay307]

I feel like the tournament format is so weird... There is so much time between now and September for anyone to just fall off or pop off but not have any chance to qualify. I do not at all mean to shittalk any of them, but who can tell, if those who qualified are still at the top level in almost half a year?

[@Maniz9]

That’s a good point. Even Chicago geographer, who already qualified for the World Cup, was having a really hard time making suggestions while he was on the cast. Maybe he was just feeling the pressure of casting tho

[@MrCguy24]

Unlock other esports most of these players still have a job and can’t just take off for a week on short notice. That’s my guess

[@DaniV183]

Ok very nice, but I still dont know what the flip flop meta is and why rainbolt calls every SK loc a 'beautiful location'

[@icebox5378]

Omg. I remember sir Pala from holy Csgo days, so nice to see he’s doing well ❤️❤️

[@Noah-lj2sg]

That turkey send was actually crazy

[@LOL-fb3sv]

5:26 the text "GRATIS ONGKIR & PASANG" That's Indonesian language it's mean "FREE DELIVERY & MAKE" I'm from Indonesia

Why Rainbolt never competes in the World Cup ?

[@sokjeong-ho7033]

Not good enough

[@Someone_on_the_web]

I’m so happy Kazakhstan got added, since it’s not that a famous of a country I’m so happy it got added!

[@LongDong_Superman]

Pala was great, you could tell at some points he was bored early in the first day but he really bought in I think

[@charlieholdaway]

I asked rainbolt mid tournament where he went and he said my mothers house. I hope she didn’t use her noggin

Man I hate geoguessr is behind a paywall right now, the community is growing but now it's behind a paywall it became a niche game once again, dumb decision, luckily there's alternative for free. The devs killed geoguessr because of their greed.

[@iremsezer8590]

Whats the alternatives name please

[@Apple_Beshy]

@@iremsezer8590 It's called Geostatic but there's also openguessr and a bunch more, but Geostatic have multiplayer too and challenges all for free
