Team Falcons have emerged as the Rocket League champions at the Esports World Cup 2026 after producing a commanding 4-0 sweep of Spacestation Gaming in the Grand Final. The victory secured the Saudi Arabian organization its first EWC Rocket League title.
The championship earned Team Falcons $400,000 along with 1,000 Club Championship points, moving them to the top of the overall standings with 4,400 points. AG AL currently sit second with 4,100 points, while Team Vitality and Natus Vincere remain close enough to challenge. Ninjas in Pyjamas eStar defeated the Paris Major champions 2-0, taking home $100,000 and 500 Club Championship points.
With the final week of the EWC approaching, the Club Championship race is still wide open. Team Falcons combined quick attacking plays with strong control to take each game, eventually winning four straight matches and completing another sweep in the best-of-seven final. The team credited its success at the EWC to the hard work that followed that disappointment, turning a difficult setback into a championship-winning campaign.
Team Falcons, represented by Samy “dralii” Hajji and brothers Yazeed Abdullah “Kiileerrz” Bakhashwin and Saleh Abdullah “Rw9” Bakhashwin, finally lifted the EWC trophy on Sunday after spending the past three years competing at the event.
Before the Grand Final, Ninjas in Pyjamas eStar and Karmine Corp met in the third-place playoff. The triumph was particularly meaningful for Team Falcons after they had failed to qualify for the Paris Major earlier in the year.
