Two esports organisations from the UK and Ireland played on stage in the finals of EU Rocket League LANs last weekend.
UK org Resolve and Irish org Wylde took part in two different events – here’s a quick look at how they got on.

The GridServe Resolve team beat Cataclysm 4-1 in the final of the fifth Morekats Mayhem event, which took place in Salzburg at gaming festival Level Up.
Resolve’s team consisted of German player Rezears, Austrian player ivn and Welsh coach Tadpole (standing in for English player Kash, who was unable to attend).
They defeated the all-German side of Catalysm, shila and Taylan.
Morekats Mayhem featured a €1,200 prize pool, with Resolve players taking home just under $860.
They played on the stage at the Messezentrum Salzburg venue.
Resolve recently came close to qualifying for the RLCS London Major, which was won by G2 Stride on June 24th.
The org will also be competing in the Shift Summer League, which starts on July 16th 2024, which will also feature fellow UK org Endpoint, as well as orgless roster Jobless featuring UK players rehzzy, eekso and more.
