Karmine Corp delivered a dominant performance at the Rocket League Paris Major, securing a major international title in front of a home crowd at La Défense Arena in France.
The Karmine Corp RLCS win came after a strong tournament run that ended with a 4-1 victory over Twisted Minds in the Grand Final. The result crowned Tristan “Atow.” Soyez, Axel “Vatira” Touret, and Charles “juicy” Sabiani as champions of the event.
The French team lifted the Rocket League Championship Series trophy and shared a prize pool of $354,000 after an impressive display across the competition.
Karmine Corp entered the final stage of the tournament after three days of high-level matches following earlier closed-door rounds. Once the arena stage opened, thousands of fans gathered to support the home team in Paris.
The team showed consistent form throughout the event. They won every series they played and eliminated fellow French team Team Vitality in the semi-finals, a match that drew significant attention from fans and analysts.
This victory is especially important for the roster, as it is only their second major tournament together. Despite their short time as a team, they have quickly become one of the strongest contenders in international Rocket League esports.
Coaching staff, including Alexandre “Extra” Paoli and performance coach Jordi “Jordi” Nouvellet, played a key role in preparing the team for the high-pressure environment of the Paris Major.
The final match against Twisted Minds was decisive. Karmine Corp controlled the series and secured a 4-1 win, showing strong teamwork, quick rotations, and consistent offensive pressure.
After the match, Vatira was named tournament MVP for his standout performances throughout the event. He described the victory as a long-awaited moment for both the team and their supporters.
He said the experience of playing in front of a home crowd made the win even more special. He also highlighted the importance of preparation and teamwork, noting that the squad maintained strong focus throughout the tournament.
The Karmine Corp RLCS win has now positioned the team as one of the top contenders heading into the upcoming Rocket League World Championship in Fort Worth, Texas, scheduled for September.
The World Championship will bring together the best Rocket League teams from around the globe, competing over several days for the ultimate title and a $1.2 million prize pool.
Karmine Corp has already qualified for the championship, but the team continues to aim for the one major title they have not yet secured: a world championship victory.
Fans and analysts now see the Paris Major win as a turning point for the roster. Their strong performance under pressure suggests they could be serious challengers on the global stage.
The atmosphere at La Défense Arena played a major role in boosting the team’s confidence. Home support from the “Blue Wall” fanbase created a high-energy environment throughout the final stages of the tournament.
The event also highlighted the continued growth of esports in France, with large live audiences and strong international participation. Rocket League remains one of the most popular competitive titles in the esports scene, attracting millions of viewers worldwide.
As the season moves forward, attention now shifts to the World Championship, where Karmine Corp will attempt to convert their Paris success into a global title.
The Karmine Corp RLCS win has not only secured a trophy but also strengthened their reputation as one of the most exciting teams in competitive Rocket League today.
