The Story of Monkey Moon - 1v1 Prodigy to Superstar

Damn gotta feel bad for Atomic. He lost to BDS in all three worlds

[@Aztronaut001]

​@@CrossBone97he also got eliminated by Monkey Moon in quarters of the 22-23 worlds

He's the reason his teams lost

[@pootinplays]

@@davidjr4903 Thats not fair. He is a demon in the net (usually) and contributes a lot. Unfortunately he has like 2 very high stakes blunders

[@tim68453]

definitely deserves more attention, I really like these commentary-style videos you're doing. Keep it up man

[@noirbebop]

7:22 “very disappointing major” is putting it lightly lol. probably the single worst performance compared to expectations for a team in rlcs lan history (besides 24 worlds gen.g lol)

[@BabyDjeezus]

It’s fascinating how much the story of MM sums up all the important events and teams of the last 5 years of RocketLeague

[@lokky9817]

We can also say that MM was a stream sniper of Kaydop 😂

[@neelarnav7954]

Yay! Thank you for making a full documentary. Content is great man. KEEP GOING!!

[@adrianrodriguez4874]

Beautifully produced video. Love the content

What a banger vid, no joke. I just randomly got it recommended and it was a very good decision to watch it . Thanks for this small movie 🙏

Cameraman was in shambles, scrambling to find him😂

[@MyFace-ie3tj]

MM is an interesting case obviously he’s not the most mechanical but he has these moments where he activates and just looks unbeatable

[@dantakeoff]

Hes a great example of efficiency. Only uses air roll when absolutely necessary, utilizes his flips perfectly, reads like hes playing in slo mo. There was a Flakes stream where he plays with MM in 2s ranked, and they walked through everybody while Flakes is reading chat and having a laugh. Goes to show mechanics are only as good as the reads and positioning allow...

[@nodidog]

Most people just massively over-value mechanics.

[@Guy65006]

He's the next iteration of Turbopolsa. These guys arent mechy but their decision making , boost management , challenge game and rotations are on another level.

Amazing content! This was the first time I watched the complete championship, and I loved it.

[@edgeribble]

$900k is crazy. He's set for life. Wonder what he'll do after he retires. I think he'll be a good coach but he should start investing in hobbies rn cos his life's gonna be so boring when he leaves the RLCS scene

[@edgeribble]

And that’s only earnings. BDS has been paying him monthly for like 4 yrs now. He’s a millionaire

[@dantakeoff]

@@edgeribble And I think BDS are one of the only orgs that actually make money from RL right now.

[@legacy7154]

great video man, deserves way more.

[@ingcrafter]

Very nice video, you deserve more subs bro

[@NackaYouTube]

MM was also a known stream sniper on Kaydop stream before being a pro

[@Surishima]

Fun Fact: He had 2 Accounts that were top 1 and top 2 in each mode at the same time, guess rank 1 was not impressive by itself already. He had a 30+ Ws in Gc at the season start and he won a 1v2 against Kaydop and Fairypeak (his mate disconnected). His average matches in 1s was 2000 per season in 2017-2019. How do i know? i was a top 100 player on ps4 and he was like Jesus there.

[@svantebillinger4364]

Really good video! Keep it up!❤️

[@spazneria]

You put a lot of effort into this - it's good! I think that you should add background music or something behind your commentary

Do a video about Kaydop please, he is a legende of this game (×3 World champ)

[@johneckleston9826]

If it wasn’t for Zen’s infinite Aura in the 23’ season, MM would be 3x by now.

[@cosmicsection1263]

What ahppened to Kuxir? (I have left this game 3 years ago)

[@cousinpatsey2471]

He's still listed as a player, but rarely gets into European Regionals.

[@hellohi1445]

Kuxir hasn’t done anything notable since RLCS S6. He’s one of the most iconic players of the game for sure tho.

[@RambinoYT]

NA is ass, EU on Top

[@MaidenOP]

does anyone know where to find the 2016 live of Mm lmao

[@MyroRL]

Its on his channel if you go to MMs twitch its linked

[@bradleys7086]

It’s also worth noting that after the Season X European Championship loss, there were doubts if BDS could perform globally as NA were at a peak, as well as the rest of the world.

[@tabs1913]

Great vid but you desperately need a pop filter for your mic.

[@MyFace-ie3tj]

I wish oxygen would have known earlier that they were going in because they could’ve made top 4 and possibly even the fine

[@edgeribble]

Oxygen were never beating Falcons

[@cousinpatsey2471]

I don't think so. As it was, this was already the best Oxygen looked all season. But also, respectfully to them, I think this was the peak for the roster. There are some teams that they just won't be favored against, Falcons being one of them.

[@MyFace-ie3tj]

@@cousinpatsey2471 that was not there peak they were barely playing before and had lots of wiffs that I wouldn’t expect from them

[@Steky241]

can u make a video about atow i think he maybe will be the best player in the world

[@DolphinaLF]

imo, Kaydop is the undisputed goat, his accolades are unmatched. To put it in perspective, Kaydop has the most 1st place finishes, at 100, second place has 67. Kaydop is him. Only other person that can rival him, imo, is obviously MM or Zen later down the line.

No lol. He doesn’t know how to speak French. Monkey m00n only picks up French speakers ever since BDS let go of Marc by 8

[@PetonIsVeryBloody]

Kaydop is still the GOAT in my opinion. MM needs 1-2 more major wins or 1 world to be the GOAT

[@psivern]

The RLCS that Kaydop has 3 of, and turbo has 4 of, were held twice a year, with a structure much resembling todays majors. So MM having 4 majors and 2 worlds (roughly worth 6 RLCS titles according to Johnnyboi) is far ahead of Kaydops 3

[@PetonIsVeryBloody]

@@psivern 3 Worlds are not the only titles kaydop has. 100 wins. 55 2nd places. 9 S-tier wins MM is at 38 wins, 14 2nd places, and 7 S-tier

[@psivern]

@@PetonIsVeryBloody I was just paraphrasing Johnnyboi, he knows more than both of us. Also if pre open era rlcs victories are s-tier, then current majors are also s-tier, and worlds is like s++ tier

[@JustMyLuck]

idk about the goat, turbo has 4 worlds. id dial it back alittle. maybe goat of current era RL.

[@marionluigi6517]

There was more world championships in a year back then I thought. So it would be easier to win then than now.

[@ToastyAlpha]

RLRS was more entertaining than RLCS at the time imo

[@russdigity7631]

4 is > than 2. Dont ever disrespect Turbo like this again.

[@ignaaRL]

It IS crazy to call mm the goat, turbo and kaydop much better, mm was never the BEST in his team

[@ididntstartthefire928]

tbf, im pretty sure new seasons are way longer and harder to win, plus MM was robbed of the chance to win worlds during covid the time they were at the top of the game is getting to be pretty similar, no? also mm was absolutely best on his team for long periods, eg for a lot of the og bds lineup imo stop the slander

[@Chica1937]

Mm won two in 3 YEARS. Not in shorter seasons. His longevity is insane.

[@Tobiasnelius]

@@ignaaRL kinda say the same about turbo during his wins too?

[@ignaaRL]

@@Tobiasnelius you just showed how much you know, he has multiple mvps in various competitions, 2 world championship mvp, one with nrg (justin and garretg) and the other with kaydop (considered the other goat). What argument you have more?

Not the goat
