This season became more than we ever expected.
Before @RLEsports 2026 began, Next2Nu Esports entered the year in transition. With our rebrand in motion, we knew we were building toward something bigger, but we did not know what this season would become or whether we would compete at all.
Days before signups for Open 1 closed, Coach @iampxress brought us the roster that became the start of our season: @K3hvn, @velo_rl, and @WUZYWRLD.
With them, Split 1 raised Next2Nu to a new level, brought new fans into the community, and gave us moments that made the brand bigger than it had before.
When that roster parted ways after Split 1, we were not sure what the next chapter would be.
Going into Split 2, Coach @wolvie_rl brought us @PNDHrl, @PercyyRL, and @arisrl_. This was a roster already proving they belonged in the Top 10 conversation and pushing for more. We were grateful for the chance to support them, and they represented our banner at a level we will always be proud of as they continued to build on the momentum Split 1 created.
Throughout both splits, @CloutCaptainrl continued his role as our performance coach, helping support the players and the environment around both rosters all season.
This season took more than players and coaches. Our casters, stream moderators, graphics, VFX, social team, and content support helped turn the season into something fans could experience with us.
What started as a season we almost skipped became a breakout year for Next2Nu Esports.
But honestly, one of the biggest takeaways from this season was not just the leaderboard. It was the support from fans like you.
Every stream watched, every post shared, every person in chat, every fan who gave these teams a chance, we truly thank you because it mattered more than you probably know.
This season was not just a result for us. It was proof that people are willing to believe in what we are building.
Now we look toward LCQ, next season, and the work it takes to keep building something real.
That means better infrastructure, stronger support, the right partners, and a clear commitment to keep building around Rocket League the right way.
We’re proud of what this year became, but even more excited for what comes next. Thank you for such a memorable season. #N2NonTop 💚🤍
The Final Open.
The Final Opportunity for Paris.
Come cheer on @arisrl_, @PercyyRL, & @PNDHrl the next three days at 7 EST here on X and on Twitch https://t.co/lJXu9uYzvr!

We as an organization just wanted to take a moment and point some attention to our players from this last open qualifier.
@PercyyRL lead the team across Days 2 & 3 and pulled out 5 Hat Tricks as the team was one of only 5 teams to be undefeated going into Swiss Stage.
@PNDHrl and @arisrl_ go into Day 5 leading NA in scoring from Day 4 and, even with other teams having more series to play, finish the weekend with an overall @BLASTtv player rating at #4 (7.5) and #5 (7.45) respectively.
The grind, dedication, and motivation these three possess continues to shine on and off the pitch! Open 4 was a statement Top 8 run for this roster, and they are ready to go further in Open 5!
This is a reminder we will NOT be streaming Friday and Saturday as they have auto-qualified to Day 3 so we will see you all on Sunday for Swiss at 7 EST!
