Major shoutout to Launders. Obviously new to the game of geoguessr, but did a great job of being fun and funny while taking the event seriously and bringing out the best in Rainbolt.
@@dariocaporuscio8701 personally i liked the ten round limit. it makes the multipliers less decisive. its not as easy for someone to lose every round and then get lucky on a 2000x round and just win this way lol. there's also still a pretty big incentive to win your rounds and stay ahead in points. i think if you're going to have multipliers, there needs to be a round limit.
Being in this crowd was such an amazing experience. We were all playing along, couch guessing all the rounds ourselves. Bantering with total strangers. Enjoying every moment. Reacting to all the big plays. Thank you for running this event. I feel so lucky it was in the next town over so I could come watch.

Congrats to the winner and everyone who played but most of all to RAINBOLT!!! This is all thanks to him- he took geoguesser from a small community and is really putting it on the map. The marketing prowess he has is really incredible, the way he’s pushing this community and advocating for the members. It truly is almost emotional for me to see this all unfold.
bro imagine getting in a plane crash and being stranded in an unknown island with these two and they just go "yeah there's a 7- Eleven just a couple of miles out"
Best 12-ish hours I've spent, from the last two days of Geoguessr World Cup... Commentary is great and fun at the same time, production quality is surprisingly astounding, audiences are also very passionate, and of course, the players themselves - so many amazing guesses and funny moments... the drama, the stories, I truly hope Geoguessr Esports have a bright future after this brilliant world cup
50:58 I have a really specific meta for this round. If you are in Germany and the paving stones in the driveways are mostly hexagonal or if you see a lot of hexagonal paving stones in general, you will most likely be in Hamburg. AFAIK they passed a law in Hamburg that restricts the usage of non-hexagonal paving stones due to their inefficiency.
@@RetsamXDid some more research and found this: epub.sub.uni-hamburg.de/epub/volltexte/2014/27568/pdf/er2.pdf There on page 25 & 26 Regarding "Überfahrten" It specifically mandates "Wabensteine" meaning honeycomb shaped stones. Not sure what the situation in other cities is yet, but Hamburg should have alot more of those hexagonal stones due to this.
Great tournament! Very wise choice to get Launders and Pala on board for this aswell, they definitely raised the quality of the show! Huge success for the first World cup, I'm sure there is potential for the future.
This was incredible. Also just insane to watch Blinky hit those 5k’s so quick. We know he can do it, but there’s something about watching it in person.
massive congrats to Consus, the final game's ending was truly a nail biter. this has been such a well produced and entertaining event, especially since this is Geoguessr's first ever world cup. cant wait for next year's world cup to be even bigger and better!
Rainbolt is an amazing caster. The final game was so epic. When it was round 8 and 4.5x dmg in brazil you just know it is over, but man they just go the exact same place and go to round 9 and then round 10...
What a lengthy stream if you count both the days but it was worth every minute. Consus vs Fungus was such a mad game. Fungus did really well to come back after losing the first two rounds. Winning that game must have given Consus a lot of confidence. Radu showed that Blinky is not invincible and can be defeated. He put Blinky under a lot of pressure there. It took both, Radu and Consus to take down Blinky. In the end, ain't nothing like the less hyped player winning the tournament. Congrats to Consus! 🙂👍
@@ZhangK71 It was not meant literally. Rather that after versing Radu, Blinky started to build a lot of preassure going into the finals. Despite him winning the first round, Consus came back and won the three rounds. Blinky even mentioned during the interview that he had trouble keeping his nerves intact. All in all, they both played amazingly. I don't think any of them even lost a single tournament game (not including round loses).
@@paxer2k Ah, got it. I’ll admit I didn’t get to watch any but a few clips from the two days’ streams, so I wasn’t all that clear on how the knockout stages worked. It sounded like there was a 2v1 format based on the wording 😆
This was amazing. I popped in to watch a little bit after seeing it pop up on Reddit and wound up watching the entire thing from start to finish. Great job commentators and absolutely stunning work by all of the competitors.
Having Rainbolt and Bloom as the "experts" and Launders/Geo as the experienced casters that are newish to Geoguessr was great. Made for great conversations about the meta and what to look for without making it too niche or too nooby
The Semi-Finals were epic! They really set up the finals for something special. Loved this so much and hope for many more GeoGuessr tournaments to come.
I’ve just finished watching the entire 2 days. Was a lot to get through but well worth it. Amazing tournament and the only esports I’d consider watching. The level of gameplay from all of the players was incredible, especially on day 2. Really hoping they do this again.
Incredible Tournament! Happy for all of guys who made it there , best feeling when you are investing hard work and getting passion of it. Cheers from Latvia, glad to be a part of the Community.
Thanks a lot for this event! Every part of this championship was awesome. I watched this World Cup from my home but the chat was intense too. I don't have words for this moment, just thanks and see y'all next year, this World Cup was just the first.
I watched this live and saw my son who travelled from Australia in the third row now he wants to go again next year. That’s my son at 2:12:45 waving an Australian flag,he borrowed the flag from a Hungarian Girl who has it on her bedroom wall, who loves Zigzag and wanted him to sign it.

@@suekennedy1595 hello there! I was the guy front of David, he's such a funny and awesome person. Took some pictures together. The girl with the flag wasn't Hungarian but Swedish! I am from Hungary. We had a fun little group supporting Australia.

came here without much expectation, came out of here as a new fan of a esport i did not know existed. Great stuff! Very well produced too, happy CSGO could spare some of its great casters to this!
What an incredible event. Insanely well organised with great casters, players and devs. Super thankful to be in this community and to watch this tournament, can't wait for the next one!
@@mijsje701 How is that his fault? You are the one browsing comments before looking at the video. It is a no brainer that people would congratulate the winner and talk about the matches...
Thank you everyone for this amazing event. An honour to see these guesses live, brilliant players, great casters, great production. Rainbolt you are the best, thank you for this experience. Congratulations to Consus, so well played and well deserved. Respect to Blinky, RC, Fungus, Lennli and all the players. The emotions of this were insane, some guesses were unreal, best finale could've hoped for.
This was so entertaining! I've watched a handful of geoguesser videos here and there and played a couple times, but am not big into it by any means. Still I found this competition captivating. By the end I was on the edge of my seat and holding my breath, and then found myself getting emotional during the award ceremony. I can't imagine how hard these guys have worked to be this good! I hope this is a yearly thing I can look forward to!
i watched the whole thing LIVE.. and i was entertained. THANK YOU! I hope this keeps going. and rooted for RC off course.. bad luck last 2 rounds, he was lost :(
Finally finished this magnum opus of a video, after finally finishing all the pre-quali ones 👏 Bravo to everyone involved, and especially you Rainbolt. You really have taken the game we love and put it on the map, pun intended. Can’t wait for next year’s tourney!
Just crazy to think about how talented these players are, if they did the exact same thing again the results would be extremely different as Geoguessr is such a wild game. Congrats to Consus and an amazing step into the limelight for the entire Geoguessr community.
i watched the whole thing LIVE.. and i was entertained. THANK YOU! I hope this keeps going. and rooted for RC off course.. bad luck last 2 rounds against Blinky, he was lost :(
What a great event and community. Everyone helps each other to learn about each other's countries' geography, language and culture. This game truly brings us together and is - particularly with awesome commentary - a great spectator e-sport :)
This was insane! Every one of those players played insane. But shout out to the finalists because that was heartwrenching to watch. Surgical precision from Blinky was something I have never seen but the consistency of Consus in the last rounds was godlike. He lost th first moving game and from there on he won the 3 games in a row. Fk!ng insaaane!!! Well done, well done Chsmpion 👏👏👏
great event from the beginning to the end, Rainbolt was amazing and big congratz to Consus..poor Blinky wanted to win so much, he was clearly devastated, but this format favours more no moving and even in many moving rounds you play it like no moving..maybe if they add 1 round of "ligue style" 25k then we could see players like Blinky shine more (I still consider him the best geoguessr player overall)
Great job with the play-by-play! I would personally really love to hear your overall thoughts on the tournament coverage in a video. Anything you would do to improve the event itself and/or the how the coverage was done.
Hi Rainbolt, thanks for the sharing ! I've a question for the community. Are the point of interest random or chosen for the purpose of the competition ? Thanks !
