The Rocket Rush weekly series got underway on October 4, 2025, drawing 20 teams to the North America online bracket for a shot at the opening $100 prize. The double-elimination format (upper bracket Bo3s, lower bracket Bo1s, and a Bo5 Grand Final with a built-in upper bracket advantage) delivered immediate intensity.
Grand Final
No Hesitation, with the trio of KnightYuh (US), Polar (England), and velocity (England), went undefeated through the upper bracket to earn the Grand Final head start. They met 100x Solis (lena, Knowsis, Demonator) in the final and closed out the series to claim first place and the $100 prize.
Final Standings
- 1st — No Hesitation ($100) — KnightYuh, Polar, velocity
- 2nd — 100x Solis — lena, Knowsis, Demonator

- 4th — Chuzz — Chuma, Messiah, mitch

Takeaways
No Hesitation arrived as clear favorites from the opening week, with Polar and velocity bringing European flair to an otherwise North America-dominant field. The 20-team field was a promising start for a new series; the format rewarded consistency throughout the bracket rather than a single hot run.
