Team Galactic is really telling a tale of 2 teams this year. They've either been among the best, or among the worst at pretty much every event so far. It seems like they've decided to dump all their training time in the offseason into just a select few events. Certainly an interesting idea from coach Black Hole, and it makes for a much more interesting season! If they win using this strategy, we might see other teams try to emulate it in future years. #ReachForTheStars
So rough to have been against the Pinkies too They were just flexing with that hump stall. But there's plenty more events and they surly aren't done yet. Reach for those dang stars
Due to the way the points drop off in the first few ranks, it's actually a better strategy to hyper focus on a few good events than to train evenly in all of them. First place awards more than double the points of 4th place, and there's still 12 teams after that!
@@albevanhanoy Exactly, that's why Galactic are doing so well. Will be interesting to see if other teams follow suit after seeing what happened this year.
I really like how you've done these 'each team does their run' types of events - shots of the fans, and a real focus on the team(s) running. Just adds to the realism fantastically by making each run even more climactic. In the past, events like Rafting have been fun, but just go after go. This year that had to be one of my favourites so far, as the camera panned over the Pinkies fans awaiting the final run and me on the edge of my seat! The editing for the Marble league is superb and gives the show the tense atmosphere any sport programme needs.
@@rcwheeler34 My thoughts exactly. I’ve commented before, it would be helpful if they’d clearly show the scoring/advancement system at the start of each event, especially since so many events do things differently. If Greg doesn’t know for sure how it works, you know you’re not being clear enough.
That's the only criticism I have. It would be so much more fun, if I could already cheer for the teams in the first run and not having to figure out what the scoring system is until four teams have already completed it.
I’m not a Pinkies fan, but DAMN they are crushing it this year! Whatever training they did is clearly paying off. They should definitely host next year.
I'm definitely rooting for them to win now, especially without the Oceanics and Kobalts who are my normal teams. Their progress has been amazing! Always nice to see some different faces at the top of the league too.
@@eagleleft there's always someone who just can't be happy. don't be that guy. Pinkies winning would be phenomenal, i'm not a Pinkies fan but they've always shown potential, gotten medals despite very low points average, so i like how it finally is used to great effect. Galactic has been the exact opposite but now they suddenly get a boatload of medals and then there are the Speeders closely behind, thrilling and fun competition. despite being Savage Speeders fan since their first showing this time i hope they don't win the league but come in second behind these reborn Pinkies
@@BayWa4eva [this is me breaking kayfabe. I am just pretending mate as in playing along to the story. I'm not really saying marbles are cheating. Now back to kayfabe] The pinkies were never this good. I love a good underdog as much as the next guy but somethings off. I don't buy it. They didn't get any new training in and they didn't change tactics. Why are they so much better this year? They stayed silent before the league and suddenly they are this amazing team? I hope the league investigates what's going on
Just wanted to say, the lack of Medical Marbles sucks. I miss them a lot. Would love some ball cam again too! those touches is what made me fall in love with marble league so much in the past.
@@CScottAnanian my friends and I were concerned he might have twisted his... err, outer shell! The little details like these really makes marble league fun. doing an event and rushing to keep the videos short sacrifices fun. it gets boring watching an event 10 times straight with nothing different. Bring back ball cam!
Exactly. I’ve been with them through the lowest of lows and I always knew they had this in them. So glad I stuck through the bad times to be able to enjoy this.
I really like the aggressive strategy for the Racers on that second run. They had a decent score in their first and decided to go for a huge payoff. Nearly worked out for the perfect 40. Congrats to the Swarm that was a very impressive showing here.
It was impressive, but also sad, because at the end ... high risk...no reward. :( These are these tiny mistakes that hold them back from being among the top spots sadly. But well still 5 events to go if I am not mistaken. Go Racers!
I think the O'Rangers are gonna need to do some hefty training or restructuring between seasons. It feels like they've grown this attitude of being "good enough" that they don't take all the events seriously anymore. We have Team Galactic, The Pinkies, Green Ducks, and more putting absolutely everything they have into most of these events.
Agreed. Seems like they've over-focused on Marbula One. The results there have been good. But, we need a deeper squad and a more well-rounded approach.
I also don't like this approach that the team's manager adopted. The O'Rangers are one of the greatest teams in marble league but have been simply average. There are still seven events, so I hope they listen to the community and make the needed changes.
@Will Mellquist I've noticed this trend too - the O'rangers love to give us hope with stellar performances in the first round, then choke the semifinals or finals. This year it looks right now as if they've taken that approach to the whole marble league. Solid showing the first few events, then just pathetic for the last few. Here, the O'rangers in two runs scored one point above and one point below the Orange Squad of _demonstrator_ marbles.
I may be a team galactic fan and am a little sore of their loss in this event. But The Feat Pinky Winky pulled off is still something to behold. We all have our favorite teams but I hope we can all agree the reason for the Marble league is to let the best of the best push the boundary of what is possible.
If the Captaincy means anything they need to give it back to Flav after this ML. Nothing against Minty Fresh, but everybody knows Flav is the best athlete on the Maniacs by a *wide* margin.
It's been painful to be a Minty Maniacs fan these past handful of events. I'm glad they're picking up some good performances here and there, but it feels entirely too little too late.
This is the most "Team Galactic" thing to do ever: after a high of getting yet another win, we finish last in the exact following event. Coach needs to stress consistency with this team.
Better than the ducks! Billy LOVES to come out hard and heavy and then just...give up. So many events and races he's started in a podium position and then finished in a double-digit position.
I never thought when I discovered this during the beginning of the pandemic it would stick, but here I am all this time later. Fantastic job as always Jelle. Now if the Whisps could actually do something that'd be great lol.
That last run of the Raspberry racers was heartbreaking to watch, we almost had it... the choke of Team Galactic today made it still possible for us to win, but I feel like it's the last time we can afford to choke an event, the last five have to be perfect, we can do it! #raspberryrobust
Oh yeah my heart broke a little bit, like that was THAT close to a technically perfect score, which nearly 100% would have meant unbeatable gold. :( I mean 7th was still alright and because of the weaker O'Rangers performance they get up one rank overall, but eeeeh ... these are the tiny mistakes and weaknesses of them this year that hold them back to be alongside the teams of the Top 3 I feel like.
This is the pinkies season! I love to see how the team is trying their best to do decently on every single event. That's just beautiful. LETS GO PINKIES! YOU ARE ALREADY WINNERS
Thank you so much Jelle for this! Absolutely makes my day when my marbles do well. Makes my day even when they don't do well. Generally speaking, just makes my day a little bit better every day. And after watching my favorite football team lose a heartbreaker last night, this helps wash the bitter taste out.
I'm so happy for the Minty Maniacs, but they're going to have to get multiple medals at this point to have a chance. Still... at least they moved up a spot and that's the right directions. The Pinkies continue to kick serious ass and that hill stop was unique!
It's a good thing I read the description 'cause I would have been very confused about the blurring 😅😂 Shining Swarm came out to *play*, that's for sure!
YES Shining Swarm! Having no Hazers in the league I decided to root for another, more extreme underdog - and it's finally payed off! Great performance #ShineOn
2 events before seperated by 2 points, now they're back within 5 after Pinkies & Savage Speeders lost a bit of ground the previous event. They just don't like being apart
I'm not a Pinkies fan, but considering how terrible they were in Marbula One, I can't help but cheer for them here. Its like, Go girl! Get yours. (yes I know they aren't all girls)
@@colorfulmarbles156 Oceanics, Snowballs, and Team Momo all didn’t qualify, Midnight Wisps are in 15th, Minty Maniacs are in 13th, and Pinkies are in 2nd
PINKIES!!!!!! YOU’VE DONE IT AGAIN!!!!! THE MOST CONSISTENT TEAM THIS SEASON!!!!!!! 🙏🏼💪🏼🔥 KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK AND KEEP THAT MOMENTUM GOING!!!!! 💖🎟💖 #PINKIEPOWER
Today we witnessed a very intense and nerveracking competition, and I'm glad that my beloved Savage Speeders continue their fine form and are still close to P1 (only 5 points)! Also congratulations Shining Swarm for winning the event! #SpeedIsKey #RiseAndShine
Ouch, that battle between Team Galactic and the Pinkies didn't quite turn out the way i would've liked, haha. Still leading though, but i'm afraid of it just being a matter of time before they relinquish that position and slip back to a top 5-ish place eventually, but so far so good.
I'm usually a Hazers fan but since they didn't make the qualifiers this year, I went with the Pinkies. And BOY! It's been great seeing them be consistent and just stay in the top three. YOU GOT THIS PINKIES! Wooooo!
It's absurd to have a head to head event like this be placed as trials rather than an elimination tournament. What your competitor does has so much impact on your results.
This has got to be my favorite regular track event. The ones that go outside are really exciting, and so are thr water events, but the wave is so tense with every single run
Huge event to stop the slide for the pinkies, they really needed a solid performance here to stay in that top bunch and they delivered! Time to finish the season strong
Yet another pretty solid performence from my speeders. I hope that if we can manage to hang around the top 3, the team will have confidence to pinch the title again. Shoutout to the Pinkies though, even though they aren't in first right now they just keep grinding out medals, it really feels like it could be their year after so many bad performences in previous years.
As an old Rojo Rollers fan and now a Green Ducks fan, I can't tell you how much I dislike the savage speeders. They have played a hand in my teams downfalls again and again, year after year. Surely the day has to come where we finally get the best of them.
Oh, CCE's. This really isn't shaping up so far. We're still within striking distance if we can get a few podium spots, but I feel like there's some heart missing.
One thing I noticed, and may be because of the way the events are filmed and Gregg commentators, but he doesn't talk about permutations in events like these. When the mint ymaniacs first run tied the savage speeders for 3rd, he didn't mention how many points they'd need to maintain the position. I feel like sometimes, if it's a podium spot he ought to mention it but he never does in events like this or block pushing or where there are multiple heats but the winner of the heat isnt guaranteed to move on. For me a lot of the fun is seeing and hearing that. Knowing what's at stake with each run would help keep the drama and suspense. Keep up the good work Gregg love ya man!
Love it! Just a small criticism but I think it would be good of Greg was told how each event worked as far as heats, qualifying for the next phase, etc. The first few heat it's often evident he tries to figure out the details. Would feel even more immersive if he knew the details right from the start
@rocketroux I read previously, he does not like to do these races in advance so he learns as we do which makes him even more great in my eyes. Imagine having to know everyone's names, what they are doing and the event in real time. Kudos to Greg!
@@edwin7788 You misunderstand me. Of course I want his first watch to be live so the commentary is authentic. I don't suggest him knowing the results. I suggest he is given the "rules" per say. Like at the olympics, the person doing the commentary know how many athletes will go to the next round etc. They don't figure it out while the event progress. And just to clarify it's not a big criticism. Would just make it a bit better in my opinion.
These videos become great to watch. Just a slight mistake I noticed at 1:17 in regards to 1:12. I think Green had 26 and Orange had 25. I know that that is just a practice run, but it was something I noticed.
Wow, nice catch! That is indeed the case. I wonder how they handle something like this. It's really not that big of a deal since it is practice as you said, but still-
Let’s goooo Pinkies!!! After the last events I thought our hype is over but hell yeah, we’re back on track! Keep up the great teamwork my Pinkies, this year is special to us Pinkiefans!! #PinkPower
I like Team Galactic's attitude this season. They are demonstrating what it means to 'Go big or go home'. They either make it to the podium or they stay at the bottom of the table in events. There is no middle ground for them.
I haven't been seeing enough love for my team, so GO TEAM PRIMARY! I know we're not getting anywhere close to recognition or the podium, but I'll still support them through the rough times.
Shining Swarm don’t get enough love!! Congratulations guys 🎉🎉 was going to throw my remote at the tv if they gave the tie break to the pinkies somehow. ✨🌪
Ever since my bois the Oceanics didn’t make it in the qualifiers, I’ve been rooting for gliding glaciers and minty maniacs. Whichever one does the best at the end of this season I will help root for with the Oceanics for the years to come. (I been rooting for the Oceanics since like the year before they won the Olympics. (I forgot the year it was)
I am glad Yellim is ok and would have liked to see the medical marbles checking on them to have that confirmed during the play. I'm we sure we were all worried you never want to see something crazy happen to a competitor. I've seen the comments so know this is the unpopular opinion and let me also preface with the Pinkies are a feel good story and I am rooting for them (when they aren't against my Cat's Eyes) however.... that should have been a 9. If a marble got all the way to a finish line and stopped it wouldn't qualify as a finish right? If they were stuck on the edge of ten and the red zone would they be given no points? I doubt it. It doesn't matter because no team had 36 points (where I believe the Pinkies should have been) and so we didn't need to see a tie break there.
Actually, if a marble is stuck at the peak between 2 waves, they will score the amount equal to the greater amount. I think they made the right call giving them 10 points.
I... what... how do you DNF in Swing Wave, Yellim? Sigh... alright, moving on. Wait, PWinky... how did you do that? This was an... experience, for sure.
Expected Shining Swarm to get a penalty from what happened to Mellow Yellow, then on the replay realised it was Yellim's own mistake. I'm glad it wasn't foul play, but I hope he's okay
In regards to the speeders: Going into this event, we sat in second, a little ahead of the pinkies, miles behind team Galactic. We now sit in third, however we are just five points away from pole. We are in great position in this marble league, and even if we can’t claim the top spot, so long as we keep this form going, we will end this marble league in a good position, of that I have no doubt. #speediskey
Speeders have always had a tendency towards very solid consistency from slow start. We're very much in the running still, love to see it. A lot can happen from now on, and if it keeps going like this, we'll be right up there where we belong.
With the way things are going, we could easily climb to 1st place if Team Galactic and the Pinkies don't get many points. Regardless, this is a great season, and a step-up compared to last year!
I really enjoy this event! The Pinkies have been ridiculously entertaining to watch this season! If I were a new viewer, perhaps I'd become a fan, but as much as I'm rooting for them, I know their history well enough to hold off on that lol
@@eliezersmarbleraces3137 I disagree. If you observe the marbles speed closely you will notice slight accelerations from making contact with other marbles. It's hard to spot with 50fps, but it visible
@@Johnwalter1044 No, Yellim never made contact with the marble next to them that caused to bounce off the track, sure they got speed from another marble but that doesn't explain what happened they must have made a bad bounce off a peak that caused them to crash out.
@@eliezersmarbleraces3137 i don't know the marble names, so i will name them by position in that run 6:13 First, the last 4th and 3rd Yellow Mellow marbles have greater speed rolling into first uphill. At the top of first hill, 3rd YM nudges 2nd YM very slightly to the right, causing it to contact 2nd Shinning Swarm. VERY IMPORTANT: At the first "base" both 2nd YM and 2nd SS touchdown, but 3rd YM is right behind 2nd YM. Both YM make SECOND contact! 2nd YM is now kicked forward uphill and much faster. The kick launched 2nd YM into uphill 2 and gave it slight air over the ground. 2nd YM is now coming up to 1st YM. Right after second top, 2nd YM grazes 1st YM by less than a milimeter! At base 3, 1st YM is at the bottom point, 2nd YM makes contact and boucnes of 1st YM. And finally 2nd YM bounces off the uphill and over the white fence.
I feel like there has been a little rivalry between galactic and pinkies formed through this ML! Good motivation for both to keep fighting #PinkiePower !!!
Chaotic, crazy event, and that's always fun. It's getting REAL hard to be an O'Rangers fan this season though. Here's hoping they can pull it together in the remaining events and get back to the top!!
No, based off the rules from the wiki: If a marble is stuck at the peak between 2 waves, they will score the amount equal to the greater amount. And since Pinky Winky was between 9 and 10 they would get 10 points.
Good to know the blur on field was a technical error. I thought some of the competitors might have been rolling shirtless
I'm definitely choosing to believe there are streakers.
That's what I thought too!!
Or "free-balling?"
I thought a marble was Streaking!
We hadn’t had any controversy this season and I was worried it was a streaking fan! Glad it’s not.

No they started of with 2 golds then 8 points in the next 3 events and 3 top half finishes followed by 2 golds and now another poor finish
Really sad, I think they got overambitious here with two in the red... Hope they're doing better in the last events... #TeamGalactic #ReachForTheStars

I'm not a Pinkies fan, but considering how terrible they were in Marbula One, I can't help but cheer for them here. Its like, Go girl! Get yours. (yes I know they aren't all girls)
I feel that I've always had them in the back of my head I'm glad to see the small teams making some headway
I've always been a fan of them and the O'Rangers. The Pinkies have broken my heart over and over.
Pinkies and Raspberry Racers fan
Also how is your favriote team?
@@colorfulmarbles156 Oceanics, Snowballs, and Team Momo all didn’t qualify, Midnight Wisps are in 15th, Minty Maniacs are in 13th, and Pinkies are in 2nd
@@shaneisbetterthanyou please help the Pinkies fans and the O’rangers fans stop arguing?
PINKIES!!!!!! YOU’VE DONE IT AGAIN!!!!! THE MOST CONSISTENT TEAM THIS SEASON!!!!!!! 🙏🏼💪🏼🔥 KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK AND KEEP THAT MOMENTUM GOING!!!!! 💖🎟💖 #PINKIEPOWER
The skill on the Pinkies! They're turning me into a Pinkies fan this year.
Today we witnessed a very intense and nerveracking competition, and I'm glad that my beloved Savage Speeders continue their fine form and are still close to P1 (only 5 points)! Also congratulations Shining Swarm for winning the event! #SpeedIsKey #RiseAndShine
The Speeders are coming close! #Speediskey
@@legendarywiimaster yes! I believe that in the following events they will finally strike for the lead!

Too bad though about the second run of the rasberry racers...they were so close to a record.
Ouch, that battle between Team Galactic and the Pinkies didn't quite turn out the way i would've liked, haha.
Still leading though, but i'm afraid of it just being a matter of time before they relinquish that position and slip back to a top 5-ish place eventually, but so far so good.
I'm usually a Hazers fan but since they didn't make the qualifiers this year, I went with the Pinkies. And BOY! It's been great seeing them be consistent and just stay in the top three. YOU GOT THIS PINKIES! Wooooo!
Yep. Previously a joke team but now they're really crushing it. Meanwhile my beloved Hazers are falling off the wagon as well.
HAHA this event makes me dizzy trying to follow the marbles. It's awesome. Razzies slowly making their move. THANK YOU SO MUCH, Team JMR!!!
It's absurd to have a head to head event like this be placed as trials rather than an elimination tournament. What your competitor does has so much impact on your results.
This has got to be my favorite regular track event. The ones that go outside are really exciting, and so are thr water events, but the wave is so tense with every single run
Huge event to stop the slide for the pinkies, they really needed a solid performance here to stay in that top bunch and they delivered! Time to finish the season strong
Greg is definitely a mellow yellow fan lmao
Yet another pretty solid performence from my speeders. I hope that if we can manage to hang around the top 3, the team will have confidence to pinch the title again. Shoutout to the Pinkies though, even though they aren't in first right now they just keep grinding out medals, it really feels like it could be their year after so many bad performences in previous years.
As an old Rojo Rollers fan and now a Green Ducks fan, I can't tell you how much I dislike the savage speeders. They have played a hand in my teams downfalls again and again, year after year.
Surely the day has to come where we finally get the best of them.
What? I like Speeders and Rollers.
Oh, CCE's. This really isn't shaping up so far. We're still within striking distance if we can get a few podium spots, but I feel like there's some heart missing.
One thing I noticed, and may be because of the way the events are filmed and Gregg commentators, but he doesn't talk about permutations in events like these. When the mint ymaniacs first run tied the savage speeders for 3rd, he didn't mention how many points they'd need to maintain the position. I feel like sometimes, if it's a podium spot he ought to mention it but he never does in events like this or block pushing or where there are multiple heats but the winner of the heat isnt guaranteed to move on. For me a lot of the fun is seeing and hearing that. Knowing what's at stake with each run would help keep the drama and suspense. Keep up the good work Gregg love ya man!
This is the first time when a marble gets disqualified but the team still earns points
Love it!
Just a small criticism but I think it would be good of Greg was told how each event worked as far as heats, qualifying for the next phase, etc. The first few heat it's often evident he tries to figure out the details. Would feel even more immersive if he knew the details right from the start
@rocketroux I read previously, he does not like to do these races in advance so he learns as we do which makes him even more great in my eyes. Imagine having to know everyone's names, what they are doing and the event in real time. Kudos to Greg!
Well, the real life commentator doesn't know the result beforehand,
So he not knowing anything would make the immersion better
@@edwin7788 You misunderstand me. Of course I want his first watch to be live so the commentary is authentic. I don't suggest him knowing the results. I suggest he is given the "rules" per say. Like at the olympics, the person doing the commentary know how many athletes will go to the next round etc. They don't figure it out while the event progress.
And just to clarify it's not a big criticism. Would just make it a bit better in my opinion.
@@rocketroux5838 ahh, that one I agree
Maybe he should be sent the example runs and the scoring rules.
These videos become great to watch.
Just a slight mistake I noticed at 1:17 in regards to 1:12. I think Green had 26 and Orange had 25. I know that that is just a practice run, but it was something I noticed.
Is there an independent overarching Officiating Council we should contact to make certain the results are correctly recorded?
Wow, nice catch! That is indeed the case. I wonder how they handle something like this. It's really not that big of a deal since it is practice as you said, but still-
Pinkies KILLING IT this year. A small bump in the road, but working their way up again with this event! So proud 🥲
Let's go savage speeders!! Whooo

Wow
Welp there was the Galactic performance I was waiting on lol! We'll just have to redeem ourselves at the next event! #ReachForTheStars
it's THE sports event of the year :D or at least the only one I will watch
Why, is there anything else relevant in the world right now? s/
Wow. I was on the edge of my seat watching this event. What a thriller!
Let’s goooo Pinkies!!! After the last events I thought our hype is over but hell yeah, we’re back on track! Keep up the great teamwork my Pinkies, this year is special to us Pinkiefans!! #PinkPower
Does anyone know whats up with all the blurring efects during this event?
It's talked about in the description
Can't wait thanks Jelle for the 2022 ML!
I like Team Galactic's attitude this season. They are demonstrating what it means to 'Go big or go home'. They either make it to the podium or they stay at the bottom of the table in events. There is no middle ground for them.
Maaaaan the Racers were within millimeters of a perfect score, can't be mad at that result though. Keep climbing! #RaspberryRobust
This is just the BEST
Thrilled to see the Minty Maniacs make podium again. They’ve been having a rough League thus far.
So proud of the Glaciers for getting silver in the last event. Another great finish could land us in the top five! Go Gliding Glaciers!
#GlidetoGlory
Go, Gliding Glaciers, go!!! 🏔❄☃
How come no medics checked on Yellim? Looked like a painful landing and then staggering into that other ramp! Yikes.
I just want to say what a pleasure these games have been….. Since those bloody LIMERS aren’t in this year!!!
I haven't been seeing enough love for my team, so GO TEAM PRIMARY! I know we're not getting anywhere close to recognition or the podium, but I'll still support them through the rough times.
Shining Swarm don’t get enough love!! Congratulations guys 🎉🎉 was going to throw my remote at the tv if they gave the tie break to the pinkies somehow. ✨🌪
the orangers truly never fail to disappoint. they had strong but unconvincing start, and now here comes the collapse
The Racers ALMOST shocked the world lol
Ever since my bois the Oceanics didn’t make it in the qualifiers, I’ve been rooting for gliding glaciers and minty maniacs. Whichever one does the best at the end of this season I will help root for with the Oceanics for the years to come. (I been rooting for the Oceanics since like the year before they won the Olympics. (I forgot the year it was)
Man those were the days when you could be a fan of blue marbles without total disappointment.
The Pinkies have pulled off some impressive feats lately. A result like that is almost as insane as a coin landing on its side(edge) from a coin flip.
I can't believe how happy I was when boc didn't get dead last💀
I am glad Yellim is ok and would have liked to see the medical marbles checking on them to have that confirmed during the play. I'm we sure we were all worried you never want to see something crazy happen to a competitor.
I've seen the comments so know this is the unpopular opinion and let me also preface with the Pinkies are a feel good story and I am rooting for them (when they aren't against my Cat's Eyes) however.... that should have been a 9. If a marble got all the way to a finish line and stopped it wouldn't qualify as a finish right? If they were stuck on the edge of ten and the red zone would they be given no points? I doubt it.
It doesn't matter because no team had 36 points (where I believe the Pinkies should have been) and so we didn't need to see a tie break there.
Actually, if a marble is stuck at the peak between 2 waves, they will score the amount equal to the greater amount. I think they made the right call giving them 10 points.
I... what... how do you DNF in Swing Wave, Yellim?
Sigh... alright, moving on.
Wait, PWinky... how did you do that?
This was an... experience, for sure.
Expected Shining Swarm to get a penalty from what happened to Mellow Yellow, then on the replay realised it was Yellim's own mistake. I'm glad it wasn't foul play, but I hope he's okay
Team Galactic: Either you’re FIRST or you’re LAST
Im loving the showing bumblebees and pinkies are having this year
7:18 insane! I guess if you do these things long enough, miraculous things are bound to happen.
Great event as always! It's good to see a new event from last year's Marble League being used once again this year! See you at the next event!
Balls Of Chaos and Midnight Wisps are in danger of getting elimated!
As a Pinkies and Raspberry Racers fan, we will *CRUSH* you!
In regards to the speeders:
Going into this event, we sat in second, a little ahead of the pinkies, miles behind team Galactic. We now sit in third, however we are just five points away from pole. We are in great position in this marble league, and even if we can’t claim the top spot, so long as we keep this form going, we will end this marble league in a good position, of that I have no doubt. #speediskey
Speeders have always had a tendency towards very solid consistency from slow start. We're very much in the running still, love to see it. A lot can happen from now on, and if it keeps going like this, we'll be right up there where we belong.
agree with ya! #SpeedIsKey
They've proven, time and time again, that you can never count them out.
With the way things are going, we could easily climb to 1st place if Team Galactic and the Pinkies don't get many points.
Regardless, this is a great season, and a step-up compared to last year!
Of course Mellow Yellow is the team that gets the unluckiest go. This has been the story of this tournament so far for them
I mean sure, this is a swarm based discipline. The shining swarm have been in their element here.
I’m glad my team (Shining Swarm) is starting to make a comeback. They gotta win this year!
I really enjoy this event!
The Pinkies have been ridiculously entertaining to watch this season! If I were a new viewer, perhaps I'd become a fan, but as much as I'm rooting for them, I know their history well enough to hold off on that lol
Dang, if the racers had managed to just keep that last marble from going over we’d be in such a good spot now.
Happy to see the Balls of Chaos pull it together and finish in the top half of the field
I couldn’t be prouder of the Swarm. So deserved. Roll over and roll out!
Unbelievalbe! I had to look at 6:13 replay frame by frame. The DSQ Mellow Yellow made contact with 3 marbles, one of them twice!
Actually, they made contact with only one marble, I just did frame-by-frame myself and the footage doesn't lie.
@@eliezersmarbleraces3137 I disagree. If you observe the marbles speed closely you will notice slight accelerations from making contact with other marbles. It's hard to spot with 50fps, but it visible
@@Johnwalter1044 No, Yellim never made contact with the marble next to them that caused to bounce off the track, sure they got speed from another marble but that doesn't explain what happened they must have made a bad bounce off a peak that caused them to crash out.
@@eliezersmarbleraces3137 i don't know the marble names, so i will name them by position in that run 6:13
First, the last 4th and 3rd Yellow Mellow marbles have greater speed rolling into first uphill.
At the top of first hill, 3rd YM nudges 2nd YM very slightly to the right, causing it to contact 2nd Shinning Swarm.
VERY IMPORTANT: At the first "base" both 2nd YM and 2nd SS touchdown, but 3rd YM is right behind 2nd YM.
Both YM make SECOND contact! 2nd YM is now kicked forward uphill and much faster.
The kick launched 2nd YM into uphill 2 and gave it slight air over the ground.
2nd YM is now coming up to 1st YM.
Right after second top, 2nd YM grazes 1st YM by less than a milimeter!
At base 3, 1st YM is at the bottom point, 2nd YM makes contact and boucnes of 1st YM.
And finally 2nd YM bounces off the uphill and over the white fence.
I feel like there has been a little rivalry between galactic and pinkies formed through this ML! Good motivation for both to keep fighting #PinkiePower !!!
Chaotic, crazy event, and that's always fun. It's getting REAL hard to be an O'Rangers fan this season though. Here's hoping they can pull it together in the remaining events and get back to the top!!
Man, Mellow Yellow adds to their illustrious history of falling off the course! 🤣
-Yellup- Yellim is gone!
Oh thank god, finally a decent finish from Wisps again.
no kidding. This year's League has definitely not been fun.
@@alan-daniel Only thing we can be interested in is a last-place battle with BOC.
Sold out arena today. Fans are pumped.
Just wanted to say I appreciate the thumbnail previews.
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL
I was half expecting a 9.5 for Pinky Winky
No, based off the rules from the wiki: If a marble is stuck at the peak between 2 waves, they will score the amount equal to the greater amount. And since Pinky Winky was between 9 and 10 they would get 10 points.
