What does it take to be a great player in Rocket League?Scoring? No, everyone can do that. Solid defense? Any decent player can learn to play defense. Reading the game? Yes, thats part of it, but what does it take to be one of the truly great players?Results.Results tell you how someone has done and show what they have worked to overcome. Results show you how they shape the teams theyre on.Now, what if there were a player who achieved solid results on multiple teams against evolving opposition since the beginning of competitive Rocket League? Thats a great player. That person is Cazaz911, now known as Moses.Humble beginningsMoses began his rise to the elite level of Rocket League from humble beginnings, starting on the team Backyard Brazilians in ESL Go4 Cup #3 where he carried the team to the quarterfinals. The roster changed a week later, adding Waze One and Edwind; Moses carried the new squad to the quarterfinals of MLG Season 1 before falling out to Kings of Urban.While these results might not be the most impressive, they signaled a transitional period for Moses, who was climbing the ladder quickly while playing with the likes of Edwind and other more established pros. Moses continued to make a name for himself, biding his time and looking for his shot to move to the top level.Meanwhile, Kings of Urban battled Cosmic Aftershock (now iBuyPower Cosmic) for the top spot in North America and shocked the Rocket League world by defeating Cosmic in the quarterfinals of MLG Season 1. After the victory over Cosmic, jaws dropped again when Kings star player Gambit decided to leave, opening a spot that was begging for an up-and-coming talent to fill.Moses and the KingsAs the newly anointed Kings searched for its third teammate, the general consensus was that the replacement would be an established top player. When the new third was announced, it was not a longtime top-tier veteran; it was Moses, the up-and-comer. As it turned out, he would go on to help elevate Kings of Urban to new heights.From Nov. 4 of last year onward, Kings of Urban continued its ascent to the top of the North American Rocket League scene, powered in part by the addition of Moses. On Feb. 17, it happened: Cosmic Aftershock, still the stalwart gods of North American Rocket League, fell to second in the Power Rankings behind the team now living up to its name as Kings. For Moses, simply knowing that he was a part of the best team in a region was his proudest moment in competitive Rocket League.Wearing the crownThe Kings rise to the top was no surprise, as it had been slowly building for two months. What was surprising was the longevity of its reign. Kings of Urban, fueled by Moses, led the North American scene for 51 days, demonstrating why it was the best team in North America and possibly the world. Moses had made a career of driving teams to the apex of the Rocket League scene, and for 51 days he enjoyed his perch atop a well-earned throne.Alas, all good things must come to an end, and this case was no exception. When the Kings fell, it fell hard, and within 24 hours of its fall Moses parted ways with the team. The near-instantaneous combustion of North Americas dominant team would have ended others careers; instead, it inspired Moses to seek a new challenge.The journeymanFive days. Thats how long it took for Moses to find a new team after he left Kings of Urban on April 13. Joining Genesis alongside Quinn?Lobdell and Pluto, he dropped down from a top two team in North America to a lower top-10 team, seeking to establish himself again. Genesis began the same rise that the Kings experienced with Moses; it rose slowly but consistently towards the lofty peaks of North American Rocket League.Coming into Season 1 of the RLCS (Rocket League Championship Series), the rise was notable in that, by picking up Moses, a team that would have been hard-pressed to qualify for the RLCS became a team expected to make the top four, which it did easily. It was no surprise that teams that fielded Moses tended to rise to the top of the scene; in RLCS Online Finals he was the sixth-best in saves (averaging 1.77 a game) and seventh in assists (averaging .62 a game).Despite Genesis great improvement, Moses soon left the team, saying, I left Genesis mainly because of play-style differences. Quinn and Pluto are great players, also good guys outside of the game, but it was difficult for me to play around their styles of play. The play-style issue influenced his decision to move to the Exodus roster, joining Turtle and GarrettG. After playing some scrims with GarrettG and Turtle I knew that we would do really well in RLCS Qualifier 2 but also could compete highly internationally when the RLCS LAN comes around, Moses said.His new teammates did not disappoint, flying through the second open qualifier and looking like a top contender moving into the second RLCS group stage. In the second group stage, they easily qualified for the LAN International Live Finals in August, with Moses demonstrating his skill as one of the tournaments best players and a defensive rock.A fresh start with great expectationsMoving to a new roster is nothing shocking for Moses; its just another roster to work with all the way to the top of Rocket League. The Exodus roster comes off of a third-place finish at the RLCS Qualifier 1 NA Online Final, one better than Moses Genesis, and looks to be a prime contender to move to the top two. GarrettG from Exodus believes Moses has the experience and general skill necessary to take this lineup all the way up. Moses says that he believes he will bring a stable, experienced base to the roster that will allow them to continue their growth.With the competition only getting tougher at the top end of the competitive Rocket League scene, there is one question on everyones lips: Can Moses do it again? I think he can, and that he is the final piece for every team to make that last jump to the very top.How many players are truly great in any sport?The answer: Only a few who have proven themselves time and time again. How many players are truly great on multiple teams against an ever-changing field of competition? Even fewer. Now, what if there were a player who has been great with one team, and then been just as good with multiple other teams? That would be one of the greatest players of all time. Moses is that player; through his career, there has been one constant: where he goes, success follows. You could call Moses the Zlatan Ibrahimovic of Rocket League, a journeyman who seemingly carries success in a bottle with him.The journey from the humble Cazaz911 to the revelation that is Moses has been a successful one that is showing no signs of stopping.

COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- Maryland couldnt ask for a better scenario to play its first Big Ten game under DJ Durkin.After rolling through their non-conference schedule with three straight wins, the Terrapins spent their bye week getting healthy and correcting the inevitable flaws that come with learning a new system.We got some rest, but we also put a lot of work in, Durkin said.The results will be on display Saturday against Purdue (2-1, 0-0), which has committed nine turnovers in its last two games and will be playing on the road for the first time this season.Its basically a new season for us, Terps left tackle William Dunn said. Every game counts a little bit more. Were prepared for it, were ready for it, excited for it.Maryland (3-0) is winning with a fast-paced offense that is averaging 41 points per game. The Terrapins have outscored their opponents 76-14 in the first half and rank 11th in the nation with 266.7 yards rushing per game.Purdue is a step up from the teams Maryland has faced thus far: Howard, Florida International and Central Florida. The Boilermakers 24-14 victory over Nevada last week enabled them to emerge from September with a winning record for the first time since 2012.I feel like we have a good football team, fourth-year coach Darrell Hazell said. Theyre starting to understand all the things it takes to win. Theyre playing hard and playing fast with confidence. Im sitting here feeling good about our team, but we have a long way to go.Some things to know about the first-ever regular season meeting between Purdue and Maryland:TURNOVER BATTLE: Maryland is one of only two FBS teams (also Western Michigan) without a turnover this season. Purdue has been intercepted seven times and lost three fumbles.Youre always concerned when you turn the ball over, Hazell said. That doesnt give you a good chance to win. Those are things we have to get fixed in order for us to be successful in the Big Ten.David Blough tthrew five interceptions in Purdues 38-20 loss to Cincinnati, a game in which the Boilermakers amassed 29 first downs and 504 yards in offense.ddddddddddddROWN DELIVERS: The Terrapins formidable running game will be supplemented by the return of Wes Brown, who missed the first three games serving a suspension for violating the schools student athlete code of conduct.Not only will he be a great contributor at tailback, but weve got a great rotation right now, offensive coordinator Walt Bell said.Lorenzo Harrison leads the Terps with 208 yards rushing, followed by Trey Edmunds (148) and Ty Johnson (131).INTO THE UNKNOWN: Purdues only previous game against the Terrapins came in the 2006 Champs Sports Bowl.This will be the Boilermakers first visit to Maryland since 1944, when they lost to Navy in Baltimore.Purdue hopes outscoring Nevada 14-0 in the second half will lead to a successful journey to College Park.Were looking forward to taking this momentum and bringing it on the road with us to Maryland, running back Markell Jones said.TRUE GRIT: Terps quarterback Perry Hills hurt his shoulder in overtime at Central Florida, but the bye week provided him plenty of time to heal.Hills, who ranks fourth on the team in rushing, wont hesitate to take the ball downfield.When you have a quarterback as tough as he is, whos willing to run through a guy, as an offensive lineman you love it, Dunn said. You see that and it makes you want to block harder for that guy.Bough has run for two scores, but his arm is his strength. He can tie a school record Saturday with his third straight 300-yard game.MOVE THE CHAINS: Purdue ranks second in the country in third-down conversions, making 29 of 49 for a solid 59 percent success rate. Maryland is 15 for 39 (38 percent).----AP College Football: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
