The Bigger Picture
Resonal, Lev, and pIGEON had each been competing separately across the season: Resonal and Lev on Champions 2021 Vandal (Week 3 winners), pIGEON on LLama Champions (Week 4 runners-up). Now together as Team Silenced, they won outright.
Naish10 SSA Fanclub's runner-up finish (a German, an Englishman, and an Irishman reaching the Grand Final of a North America online event) reinforced the genuinely international character of the Rocket Rush field. ZAVE Master's third place continued the ZAVE organization's pattern of running multiple competitive squads deep into the bracket each week.
With Team Silenced's 29 points added to their individual week tallies, the standings race tightened considerably heading into the final four weeks.
