REACTIONS to Rendezook in the Battlefield 2042 Trailer

[@strebo8419]

⭐Quick history of the RendeZook: ZookaMan was one of the first gamers to try a move called the LoopZook around 2005 (approx) in Battlefield 1942. The move involved looping the aircraft and ejecting to 'Zook' (short for destroying with Bazooka) & destroy the enemy aircraft and returning back to your own aircraft. Later, gamer Stun_gravy was inspired by the LoopZook and performed a slight variation of it in 2011 with Battlefield 3. Stun_gravy's version did not have a loop and so he named his version .... RendeZook. He created the name by using 'Rende' -- part of the word 'Rendezvous' (which means to meet up at a certain time/place) and combined it with Zook. Gamer Ponylion would further popularize the RendeZook in Battlefield 4. The Russian gamer Schemov (last guy reacting in my RendeZook video) popularized the RendeZook in Russia. He told me that he was challenged to try it and he watched Ponylion to learn the RendeZook technique. He would later discover about ZookaMan and Stun_gravy's past RendeZook achievements. I hope that clears up any confusion about the history of the Rendezook --- an important part of the Battlefield community.
