As a big Khalid fan this was definitely one of the biggest jaw dropping moments for me in RL history watching Khalid. I wanted him to win very badly, but Fairy Peak pulled off the best upset. Goosebumps even when i watch it back when Fairy types "be careful." I remember going "surely not, no, it cant happen like that" and it did. What a match from both.

As someone who only plays this game casually and knew nothing about these two players, this documentary was such an incredible way to experience the battle between these two titans for the first time! Both guys seem like great dudes, Khalid is so humble and such a good guy for immediately giving out compliments after a heartbreaking defeat. Fairy Peak is legendary for this series too. Saying “be careful!” When down 3-1 in the series, while also down a goal in a game with only seconds remaining is one of the coldest, most gangster moves I have ever seen someone do in a video game. Coming back and winning after a line like that sounds like something out of a fake story. Phenomenal work sunless, everything this guy has released lately has been golden.

i miss the days when the top tier players were just normal kids who could say stuff like "be careful!" as a little funny banter and still keep the match friendly, knowing there is mutual respect. the top players nowadays are so up their own asses they tilt off the face of the earth at the drop of a hat and write ten page papers on how pathetic and boring their opponent is every time they lose. it's made the overall playerbase harder to tolerate as well. complaints of your opponent ball chasing in fucking 1v1 have actually become legitimized to the point where most players use it as an actual excuse to why they lost to someone they deem inferior. i think young players have always molded their behavior after the pros and nowadays that means if you lose you have to throw a temper tantrum about how you only lost because your opponent is a ones main or ball chased or played so boring, preserving the belief that you are the superior player. the days of kronovi/marky/kuxir/fairy peak/khalid/joreuz at the top were the best. there were a few players who acted this way like scrub killa and yemen, but it was widely accepted that their behavior was a negative trait. even scrub, the king of tilt, would usually just act like a dickhead in defeat instead of making excuses and claiming he's still better.

Man, wish I was following RLCS in the peak Fairy days! Also, what a humble loss from Okhalid. The "ggs

This brought back the same goosebumps I had while watching this series live back in the day. Truly one of the greatest series of all time and no one could do a better job at documenting it than Sunless did right here. Thanks for giving us a great time and bringing attention to the 1s scene!

I only got into Rocket League and this channel within the last 2 or 3 years maybe? While l do love the game, I don't think I eat, sleep, and breathe it the way I'm sure a lot of people here do. The reason I bring this up is to point out that when it comes to gaming content, I am not especially engaged with RL channels more so than others. With that being said... I really think that Sunless is underrated as simply a content creator. While it is RL content, a lot of the videos are so well done that it can capture the attention of people who have no investment in the game. Top-notch, high quality stuff. This man knows all about having a true passion for doing this and it shows in his work.

I watched this live and it was one of the most hype moments in RL. It was like a David vs Goliath match where even though people were rooting for Fairy I don't think a single person would have bet their money on him beating the unbeatable Khalid.

The production value on this video is so phenomenal dude incredible work. So much respect towards you for working hard and creating this amazing content

Great choice getting Johnnyboi - the father of 1v1 to narrate over the games. Very well made video

"be careful!" needs to be a quick chat in rocket league lol

RL 1v1 is the only esports I follow and watch actively, and this was an awesome tribute to that incredible match. The way that oKhalid *dominated* the entire scene when he appeared was amazing. No one could get enough of watching him play, and it all led up to this series. It was SUCH a big deal, to watch the undefeated oKhalid play the returning GOAT. oKhalid and Fairy have IRONCLAD mentality and willpower, and I think that was another huge reason why this was so jaw-dropping. Two masters of the craft going at it with everything they had. Very well-made video :)

I remember watching this match during the Vitality watch party with Kaydop, Alpha and Mout, their reactions were insane during this game!

Johnny is a damn legend. Caught onto his stuff like 5 years ago and I always come back to his top tier commentary

We’ve said this before but will continue to do so at this rate. The keen attention to detail in highlighting specific high stakes moments, guiding the tone with music choice and the overall professional quality of these documentaries make your presence in this community monumental. Yet another banger of a video. Thank you for pushing this game further and further with your amazing content.

As soon as they said, "be careful!" I knew exactly what series it was. Such an awsome thing to witness

Fairy Peak! One of the GOATs and one of my personal favorite RL pro. The mental fortitude and perseverance to keep toe to toe with Khalid was so fun to watch live, I’m glad you made a video out of it!

bro the editing, cinematography, music choice, johnnyboi's expertise. and all that behind the timeless drama of RL and this moment, what an s tier video. inspiring man, thank you!

This is the best video on Rocket League I have ever seen! The commentary, the edits, the history of both players explained so beautifully and the surprisingly friendly rivalry based game from oKhalid and Fairy Peak - it was all top notch! I love this video and I hope we get some other videos about the craziest series too! Thank you Sunless and Johnny, this was amazing!

Thank you so much sunless for bringing all these amazing stories to life for us! It's amazing to see how such a simple game we all love evoke such emotion through a story well told. Keep it up! Always loved your content and look forward to each upload!

Sunless, I really admire your videos man but what i really love are these documentary videos they are absolutely amazing.

When I saw the be careful in chat even though I saw it at the beginning of the video, it made shivers run down my spine. This was sooo good!

i love the story telling and the pace of the video, nothing rushed no part missing, keep up the work sunless & johnny

Just amazing! I come back and rewatch this series once in a while and everz time I get nervous and pumped. I remember watching it and the emotions I had while the 3-1 and "be careful!" was happening. I wish I could forget it to rewatch it without knowing who wins it :) Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

This was an incredible video and amazingly well done! I really hope that part 2 is Firstkiller vs Lethamyr...

Coming into RL late in the game and not knowing about this match and history behind it. This is the greatest RL video I've ever seen by a mile!!

FirstKiller vs Firewall was simply legendary as well. Also, knowing the backstory behind that game makes it better.

Please never stop these highly edited documentary type story videos. I play rl but i'm not rlly into the competitive scene so seeing these is always awesome for me especially because I don't know the outcome. Awesome video.

This was amazing, and now with RW9 and Zen a new era has brewed in the 1s scene!

honestly i had already watched this match up but this was an excellent presentation on the sheer insanity of this momentous game. very well put together sunless

Great video edits and great story! Loved the slo-mo, different angles, and triple takes. Very cool

It deserves to be immortalised in a Hall of Fame somewhere.
