Note: These power rankings are based off the last month of major events (any event with five of the top 10 teams) but will be weighted towards more recent results.
NORTH AMERICA
1. Kings of Urban
Kings of Urban take the top spot in our first power rankings with impressive results over Exodus, Retrospect, Genesis, Lucky Bounce, and Goomba Squad. The Kings are the top seed for North America going into the Rocket League Championship Series Live Finals LAN, and if they continue this form it is not hard to see why. Player to watch: Jacob "Jacob" McDowell.
2. Exodus
Exodus is a top team in the world and a top team in North America, and yet it's shoveled into the number two spot simply due to its inability to beat Kings of Urban. Going into the finals, Exodus certainly looks like a top contender from North America.
3. iBUYPOWER COSMIC
iBP's is the story of a team that has lost its best player, yet looks ready and confident to continue with a very high level of gameplay. Coming into the finals as a dark horse, iBP will need to make magic happen to cover the loss of Gambit from its roster. Player to watch: Cameron "Kronovi" Bills.
4. Mock-it NA
Mock-it's North American Division seemed to be on a roll of sorts earlier this month with wins over nearly every single team in these rankings; however, it's faltered recently with less-than-stellar results in the past couple of weeks. Still undeniably a top four team, Mock-it looks likely to be a top contender in any tournament.
5. Genesis
Genesis is the fourth and final team going to the International Finals from North America, but it's had a small fall from grace since qualifying. Due to recent losses to Goomba, iBP, and Mock-it NA at tournaments like Rocket Royale, it placed just outside the top four in these rankings. As it is still an incredibly solid team, Genesis could rise back to the top at any time.
6. Momentum
Momentum is perhaps the most in-form team on the power rankings right now. Seemingly appearing from nowhere a month ago, it has taken the scene by storm with big wins over Lucky Bounce, Kings of Urban, Goomba, Retrospect, and iBP. Its record hasn't been spotless, however; it's dropped some sets to teams ranked below it such as Goomba and 2EZ as well as some teams above it such as Exodus. Still, Momentum is the team to watch, and in the next edition of our rankings it could be vying for a top two spot. Player to watch: Chris "Dappur" Mendoza.
7. Foresight
Foresight as a team has had its ups and downs, and lately it's been more down than up. With losses to Genesis and Exodus, it has only recently started to recover with a convincing win over Galleon (unlisted, ranked ~15th). If it racks up more losses to teams below them, it could quickly drop to a lower rating. If it can turn things around and continue its recovery, it could rocket up this list.
8. Lucky Bounce
Lucky Bounce had impressive results in the RLCS Qualifier 2 league play, and now it's bringing that winning roster back together. The only reason this roster appears so low in the rankings is the team's as-yet-unproven form after the three-week hiatus the players took to explore their options as solo artists. It's highly likely that all three are better together as a band. Player to watch: Jacob "Darkfire" Gurrola.
9. Goomba Squad
With a recent win over Genesis and a win over Foresight and Momentum, Goomba has a solid claim for ninth place. That said, Goomba's dropped sets against Momentum and Retrospect mean this spot could be a revolving door. Player to watch: Jesse "Frezno25" Wentz.
10. 2EZ
Even with its troubles, 2EZ squeaks into these rankings due to Retrospect's dissolution and the resulting void to be filled. It was in poor form in the latter end of the month, but there was some success earlier this month with a win over Momentum and Galleon. 2EZ will desperately need to improve to stay in these rankings, but for now it just makes it in.
Europe
1. Northern Gaming
Northern Gaming looks like a ridiculously strong team, as in the last week it beat FlipSid3 4-0. The team is looking to be the favorite in the upcoming International Finals and with a high-pressure style it looks unlikely to be beaten for many weeks to come. Player to watch: Marius "gReazy" Ranheim.
2. FlipSid3 Tactics
FlipSid3 holds the second spot in these rankings due to its tight head-to-head win over Mock-it Europe 3-2. With that result it managed to secure second, but don't let it fool you; Flipsid3 is not close to We Dem Girlz at the moment and it's holding onto this spot by the finest of margins.
3. Mock-it EU
Mock-it EU sees the opposite side of the coin from FlipSid3. Falling just short of second, it holds onto a comfortable number three spot. With would-be challengers Supersonic Avengers and The Flying Dutchmen losing to teams well below their standing in the power rankings, they really present little threat to Mock-it. Player to watch: Phillip "Paschy90" Paschmeyer.
4. Supersonic Avengers
Supersonic Avengers have had some bad losses recently, particularly to Enjoy. However, considering their win over FlipSid3 in RLCS Qualifier 2 as well as their very close set vs We Dem Girlz, Supersonic Avengers look likely to hold this spot barring any major upsets by lower ranked teams. Again, though, the gap between them and the team above is very noticeable.
5. The Flying Dutchmen
The Flying Dutchmen are the fourth seed from Europe going into the International Finals and face a very tough matchup vs Kings of Urban. Losing to Cow Nose 2-1 is a very rough result for The Dutchmen, but they hope to bounce back at the International Finals and show that they can rise back to the top four. Player to watch: Jasper "Vogan" Van Riet.
6. Enjoy
Enjoy has taken down some of the top teams in recent weeks, including a win over Supersonic Avengers. With results like that it ends up sixth and looks to apply pressure on the Flying Dutchmen.
7. Aeriality
Aeriality has been steadily rising from a very low level of play in RLCS Qualifier 2. Nevertheless, it qualified for RLCS and competed, so there is nothing but upside for Aeriality as it looks to continue to rise up these ranks.
8. Cow Nose
Cow Nose is one of the best examples of how contentious the EU rankings are outside of the top three. With a recent 2-1 win over The Flying Dutchmen, it has shown its chops as a team capable of playing in the top 10 of Europe.
9. Crown and Jewels
Crown and Jewels have a roster that looks terrifying on paper, but just isn't quite there yet. When this roster builds, the synergy that players of this caliber can generate will truly be a force to be reckoned with. Look for this Crown and Jewels roster to slowly climb up these rankings in the future. Player to watch: Kyle "Scrubkilla" Robertson.
10. Extatus
Extatus is another roster that cannot really compete at the level of the top three but has shown recently that it can fight in the mosh pit that is Europe's 4-10. If it can continue to take games off the teams around it, Extatus could start climbing towards those lofty heights above it soon.
