Marble Rally 2019 Showdown - Jelle's Marble Runs

[@chocolatechip12]

Ducktape could be one to watch this season. He showed great consistency in the showdown.

[@WaveShock007]

I heard rumors he was trained by the legend

[@wscottwalters74]

He’s a strong finisher. Just needs to work on his overtaking.

[@nytraze4659]

Duct Tape: Race 1: 4th Race 2: 4th Race 3: 5th Race 4: 4th Overall: 4th If that’s not consistency, I don’t know what is. Beat out 3 of the 4 race winners without even getting on the podium

[@terpcj]

Might not be the sexiest to some, but you have to admire any marble who can stick to what they do well.

[@wilshiretheorange6482]

Yeah, I was super impressed with his performance in these races. I think I may have to become a fan for the next Marble Rally!

Can we talk about how good these courses were? The third one was especially well made imo with those different paths creating opportunities for comebacks and keeping the race entertaining

[@SunyiMad]

That jump part, too.

[@MrDavidNichols]

Was also going to say, 3rd course was excellent.

That was the most heartbreaking set of races I've ever seen, poor White Widow : ( Two medal races, in first, and then two DNF's and she's ONE spot away from advancing. I hope this wasn't too much of a blow to her confidence, she's an incredible racer and I really hope we see her on the tracks again

[@GlenBrixey]

She has another chance to advance in the race-off.

[@AddersSnakePit]

@@GlenBrixey : D

[@sed1589]

Incredibly talented racer but needs to work on her technique

[@caseymcmurtry2124]

I'm still contending that she was targeted by other contenders and pushed around on the track. There's often more aggressive contact in first-season competitors. After her surprise win, they corralled her into the bridge hole, and when even that didn't stop her, they shoved her in the last two races and stole her momentum. #LETWWRUN

[@martyrdanielson]

As the announcer said, sometimes these marbles get into their own heads.

[@brunobarcelos2621]

What a choke by White Widow

[@Fistminer]

It's was a faulty course. I demand a redo!

[@MrE_]

Screw her! Big Pearl all the way!!

[@wospy1091]

Next showdown she'll get it

[@breadfiesta]

The first two races showed she's ready for the big leagues. I believe this is an underdog story. Ask yourself, "What would White Widow do?" and you'll know she'll win. #WWWWDD (I've only just learned about the Marble Rally and I'm so into it and it's cool how many other people are too)

[@IvanEedle]

Silly mistakes came at a big price...

[@silvercyndaquil8472]

I think she’s putting in the right amount of training (too much could be bad for her health), I think she’s just not good with curvy tracks. Still, hoping she pulls through in the qualifiers~! #TeamSummerSky #TeamBigPearl #TeamWhiteWidow

[@forgottenfamily]

Oh man, I really hope she gets to race RN3

[@caseymcmurtry2124]

I still feel that after her surprise win in the first race, several other mid-level competitors got their egos up, and gunned for her on the track. It's not uncommon in freshman competitors.

[@MrExoticSnow]

The third course was really spectacular. I hope for more courses of this type.

What a roller coaster as a Deep Ocean fan. After the start of the first race, she was nowhere to be seen. Into the final race, she was dead last and the only one who couldn't be promoted no matter what. Out of nowhere, boom! Takes the win

[@mindscapejem]

I'm super glad Big Pearl made it to the Rally, and was pleasantly surprised she made the top spot. She was always a top competitor that really pushed Red Number 3 to be a better racer, so it will be very interesting to see how her training in the off season pays off against the champion. I'm going to be split on who to root for in the upcoming Rally.

[@koziboo]

I've come from the future to tell you that Big Pearl will NOT be competing in 2020 due to the reason of her being less popular than others. So... go on with RN3

[@Aus177a]

The memories with this channel this was my life

[@romanlinnik7441]

#DUC I picked a fun guy for sure. Race 1 - tough comeback from fighting over the 11 to being 4th. Race 2 - very intense racing at the edge of top 5 and 5th at the end. Race 3 - a huge gamble for the lead at the beginning. Midpack struggle and comeback to another top 5 finish at 5th. Race 4 - tracing the leader whole race but another unfortunate mistake and a tough top 5 finish at 4th. Incredible racing. ------------- Conclusion: Duct tape is a very consistent racer with, no doubt, great potential. He reminds me of H2B in 2016/2017 seasons. DUC needs a bit more experience to become Marble Rally championship contender. Sadly, I don't see him being a top 5 racer in SMR2020 yet.

[@spuddy345]

[@prime8nate]

That domestic violence charge really casts a shadow over what should have been a glorious victory for Big Pearl.

[@johnrosie9769]

El Ciclista lets get the facts and hear all the evidence first before we rush to judgment ok and until that case is resolved let's respect the privacy of the parties involved and at least take solace in the fact that the case won't interfere with the season so that's one good thing for BPL

As an Oceanics fan, watching Deep Ocean race feels crushingly reminiscent of the recent Marble League.

Wat een geweldig spektakel is dit. Dit deden mijn vriendje en ik zo'n vijftig jaar geleden ook. Toen lag er een hoop zand op ons erf en daar maakten we een knikkerbaan in. Die was dan hooguit 2 meter lang. Onze knikkers hadden de namen van wielrenners zoals Jan Jansen ,Merkx Poulidor en Karstens. We hielden dan ook wedstrijden met een puntentelling. Helaas zijn hier nooit fotoos van gemaakt. Maar dit is natuurlijk veel grootser en mooier. Ga door en veel sukses.
