This is a updated version of my 2024 video. I know most of you have seen this already, so why didnt i make a completely new video for the occasion? well i simply dont think i could make anything better or even close to this level again. This video itself took me months to make in the first place and i wasnt going to go through all that effort again. Im uploading this video a day early incase psyonix/blast have cooked up something of their own for tmrw.
Happy 10 Year Anniversary everyone!
