Thank you all for wonderful comments, so lucky to have this amazing community supporting me all these years, I’ll be giving you Rocket League content until I can’t anymore. My heart is still with Rocket League but now my focus is you guys and trying to be the best to help you guys all improve. Maybe if a Rocket League 2 comes out someday I’ll take my shot at another World Championship so you can all cheer me on again. ❤️

forever a legend, been watching you in the pro scene since i was in middle school and now i’m in college.

Stopped playing Rocket League 2 years ago. But during the time I played it, you were a massive influence and I always watched your videos. Ill never forget you winning your first championship. Enjoy your retirement legend ❤

i fucking love this guy

almost shed a tear watching this live

This the most emotion this man has shown in the last like 8 years 😂

May sound dramatic but squishy lowkey saved my life. His videos was the only thing that helped me go through withdrawals when i was trying to get clean. I sincerely love this man fr. Im so happy and proud, he deserves all of what he has and more. I wish i was there. Where was this?? Congrats on getting engaged too. I will always be watching and supporting you by your side Mariano.

the impact this man had, the advice he gave, the people he inspired. this man is the most influential figure rl has ever seen, happy retirement squish

You and that Cloud9 team are the main reasons I still support C9 now, thank you for everything you've done for the Rocket League scene and everything as a whole and I can't wait to see what you do next!

Stopped playing Rocket League a while back but Squishy was lit the GOAT of the game in all the years he's been in the scene and he will always be remember as a legend. Thanks a lot for all your content and enjoy the retirement, we will miss you man.

Squishy will forever be a renound legend of the game. His dominant run in rlcs and other tourneys with C9 and NRG, being the best mechanically and bringing out on the biggest of stages, and just being a wholesome youtuber who provided content and brought so much fame and love to the game. Hats off to Squishy man, he's one of a kind.

To deliver that good of a speatch/answers under pressure is class! Love u Squisy

Best thing you've ever done is telling people to look after themselves. It's easy to become addicted to this (and other games), and if you're planning to make a living from it, it is actually OK to be addicted. Just don't be addicted to the extent to which you're not sleeping, or sleeping shit, eating shit, not exercising, etc. I feel like most probably do have a good balance, but there are definitely those who do not! Pay attention to the words Squishy said here, he's been there and done it. This is perhaps the most important advice he's given overall.

I man enough to admit it, I got emotional watching this.. what a journey, what a legend, what a save! Best player ever existed. I remember his first powershot videos tutorials even than he was such more mechanical and consistent than everyone else. A true legendary player of all times.

brah, i cried so much, respects for maintaining composture thru those "thank you squishy", wow

look at squishy man, so inspirational 😫

The one guy that fully drew me into the competitive aspect of the game. The people's GOAT

You inspired a whole generation of players. YOU ARE THE LEGEND!! We will forever be grateful for your impact and contribution to Rocket League scene. You were a big influence fofr a lot of current pros. Good Luck in your future endeavours and we will always suport you Squishy.

This man has gone from the ceiling shot to retirement in what has felt like a single year but it has been a good run buddy. Thanks for the rlcs memories.

The OG! I’ve been following you for years man. So happy to see you taking the next step in life and if your journey is in the limelight excited to see how I can support it! Best of luck going forward.

Squishy is the definition of the OG. Been here since the start of rlcs and still one of the best. To me, the best ever. Squishymuffinz, you’re the 🐐

Dude i legit cried. Ive been watching you since the very start. What a cool surprise.

Humble, gracious, and a pioneer world class act my man love you and everything you’ve done. I think I speak for everyone here… we love you you squishy

Watched him since the beginning! Helped me so much. I'm older now, but stay a consistent champ due to him!

rocket league was one of the first pc games i played when i got a pc in 2015 for my 12th bday, got more into it in 2016, i remember watching squishy montages with my bro and friends, what a legend.

Congrats my guy. You've been such an inspiration and mentor for the entire community. Will definitely continue to follow your journey.

Crazy to think I was just old enough to go to the bars when I started watching you and now I'm turning 30 😂. You will forever be loved by this community and have left such a major impact on so many people and the comp scene ❤ truly is the end of an era. Cant lie this made me tear up a bit, best of wishes to your future and of course we going to keep watching the goat 🎉🎉

The influence he had in the pro scene and in the rest of the RL community, reminds me the influence Valentino Rossi had in motogp. The game wouldn't be the same with him,. He made big steps for the competitive - mechanical part of the game, and made the game more interesting and fun for the casual players. Thank you for everything squishy

Have been getting back more into the game after taking a break for awhile. Honestly it’s really sad to see you go squishy you’ve been such an inspiration since day 1 of playing this game. Especially for me all the way back to 2016 you paved the road for thousands of new fans and an entirely new way to play the game we all love, and for that we truly thank you!!!

Been following since muffinmen days, such a huge inspiration to the entire community. If I learned one thing from you it's to chase dreams and have fun with your friends while doing it. Love, good luck moving forward with whatever you put your mind to!

This man is the very reason I love playing games competitively

To be respected and considered a friend to so many others from around the world by being genuine and doing what you love is the ultimate dream come true. Yous a legend

i started rocket league because a friend had it and we played rumble drunk. bought the game and before starting it watched a video of rocket league. it was 2017. you are the reason i kept playing. all i know about rocket league is from you. didnt miss a single video since 2017 watching squishy when going to bed is basically my routine at least every time you upload a video. i was always rooting for you and your team. thanks for all the good times, everything you teached me and for all the good content. wish you all the best for the future and looking forward to more good content. GOAT of rocket league!

Watched him when he was just a small KZfaqr. Legend. Helped many of us and I'm sure we imitated his play style too at one point. Hats off from a 36-year old man.

Watching you grow up for years from being an innocent lad with the world at its feet in the rocket league community and winning worlds to being a mature, well spoken, gifted player and person. Will continue to follow your content squishy!

your impact on peoples lives goes far beyond you could ever imagine. congrats squishy and good luck on this next chapter!

I got super into RL because of his videos. I watched him grind rlcs and eventually take his stake on the mount rushmore of RL. Because of him i grinded and listened to his tips it got me to GC by season 6 and he won S6 Worlds and it was awesome! Thank you for the memories and impact you had on this game.

Dude literally brought the game to life and new kids are like..ya he WAS good. Naw hes the best

You, my man, are the reason I stuck to Rocket League for the last 6-7 years and still counting. Your passive energy, the way you keep your cool with all the damn toxicity that we all know this game brings out of some people. You are an inspiration for so many players, including myself. When I heard about your retirement, my heart shattered, and seeing this video made me drop a few tears. Thank you for being you. Thank you for your love and god bless your skills. Thank you Squishy 💚

I actually shed a tear, squishy your an absolute unit of a person, thank you for all the memories and I applaud you for your endeavors. Much deserved!

Watched this live and was amazing, thank you Squishy!

You were the first rocket league KZfaqr I ever watched. You were the first twitch streamer I ever watched and you are the only twitch person I hit a year subscription with. Back in 2018 when my brother first got me into the game, I watched your videos to learn about the game. To this day, that has not changed. Rocket league without you, is not rocket league. You have literally defined the game for me and countless others.

It’s crazy to think how long he’s been in the scene man I remember getting rocket league back in 2017 and watching squishy I was like a 6th grader now I’m entering college

Straight up cried watching this live, just such a good dude. I wish you all the best in your future Squishy. From marriage, to starting a new family, to all the amazing things in life that are to come ❤

no diddy but i cried when u won your first rlcs (i was like 14), you were my absolute favorite player and styled my playstyle after you. you shook the rlcs scene and will forever have your name engrained in rl greatness. best of luck to your future endeavors

I loved that you said to take care of yourself. That couldn't be anymore true for all of us. Love you Squishy

I remember watching you win the Season 6 World Championship live on my lunch break at work, trying to describe to a coworker how much Squishy affected the Rocket League scene and professional technique and strategy. You’re and inspiration for success and I’m excited to see what you get up to next.

No doubt squishy is a forefather of the whole rocket league scene we all know and love today. He is the glue and foundation ❤️

I've been watching you for so long and only got better at the game and achieved my goals with your help, thank you for everything. Can't wait to keep learning from you in your future videos, thank you.

Squishy has always been my favr player. Back when I first saw him he inspired me to grind mechs and now he handes the torch to the next gen. He and Zen brought me back to RL after a lot of years

Bro this made a 29 year old cry. The impact Squishy made in the RL community should never be forgotten. He's grown the game more than any other pro, bar none.

What a beautiful way to end your competitive career! I have followed you since the beginning, and I was blessed enough to be there live to watch your farewell in Copenhagen. I'm so happy that your "Road to Grand Champ" video popped into my KZfaq algorithm in 2016. I've been enjoying all of your videos since that day, especially your well-made montages that you used to make after reaching different milestones in subscribers, "Goal of the Day," and such. Your legacy in the RLCS is inspiring, and it was great to witness as a fan. I remember you being a sub at G2 at first, and then teaming up with Lachinio and Torment at Iris. Not reaching RLCS S3 must have been tough, but your redemption arc with The Muffin Men (later Cloud 9) was iconic. You should be proud of everything you've achieved through the years, both competitive with C9 and NRG and content-wise on KZfaq and Twitch. You've inspired millions, believe it or not. Just wanna thank you for inspiring me as well! I hope and believe you'll succeed in whatever the future holds for you❤️ (Genuinely, could have written for hours lol) Phoenix✌️

My son and I played RL together for a couple of years and had so much fun. Watching Squishymuffinz was a big part of it. Thank you!

Only reason I started playing Rocket League, congrats on an amazing career Squish! Absolute legend of the game.

I find it ironic that after playing Rocket League for 8 years... that this video pops up the day after I deleted the game from my Steam account. I've followed your journey for as long as I can remember Squishy and it's had a profound impact on not only my game, but my mentality and approach to the game. While I'm not a pro or any sort of great player, I felt the time had come for me to retire from Rocket League in my own way, as my life has other priorities now, and in a way it feels special that this is happening at the same time as your official announcement. Much love and thanks for the good times

Ill miss watching play professionally. I started playing because of you. End of an era. Congrats Squishy!!

THE LEGEND HIMSELF !!!!!!! you will always be remembered

Squishy helped pioneer the game into what it is today, forever an absolute legend on the pitch

Thank you Squishy and good luck always you're inspirational and forever a GOAT/LEGEND!!!

You've impacted so many people's lives in ways you'll never even understand! I can't thank you enough for everything you've done for this community! I hope I get to meet you one day and thank you in person. Best wishes on all your future endeavors! Sending love from Oklahoma! ❤

The real first legend of RL world scene... YOU are the goat Be sure that your name and personality carve this game forever, and thank you for that ❤

Pretty much the reason I started practicing and trying to get better. Thanks for being such an inspiration Squish !

I got emotional when Muffin Men lost to M80 knowing it was over. You easily have what it takes to compete, but better to exit with a bang than a sour note. Your domination with NRG really helped me through quarantine. Great memories to look back on during high school. Thanks again your efforts and achievements they mean a lot to bunch of people. P.S. AntiChrono

Hey Squishy, doubt you'll see this but just wanted to say Thanks for everything. I learned alot from you, and it wasn't just related to RL. Your calm demeanor and strong character shone through every time I watched. Granted you took me from gold 1 to c3/gc1 in a couple months, but I'll never forget the life lessons you've taught me along the way. I reconnected with friends due to videos of you JSTN and Garrett and the chemistry both on and off the field. I genuinely appreciate you Mariano "SquishyMuffinz" Arruda. Thank you for being you, not conforming to how others wanted you to act or play, taking accountability when necessary, and the mentality of learning daily. Just wanted to say I'm a better man because of you and hope you continue to teach by example so millions of others can learn what I have from you. Thank you Squishy! ♥

I remember being a kid and my first time watching rlcs was season 6, where I immediately loved watching c9 play. Sad to see you leave the scene but glad to see what you did for it as well.

When the crowd started chanting SQUISHY MUFFINZ... I lost it. 😭

It's been a pleasure to watch your videos all these years. Wishing you the best.

Damn man - it’s insane to see. I started rocket league and watched rocket league bc of you. Started playing when I was in HS and now Im a graduate student in college. Years of watching you in the pro scene

Even tho many see the retirement as "taking time off and relaxing" he still makes content and plays the game at SSL level, in the 0,1 percentile of best players. He is still a pro at this game ! Best of wishes squishy ❤

Watched this man since his 50k montage. I grinded up to grandchamp solo queuing because my friends didn’t play the game anymore and watching those videos oh so long ago and mimicking your movements helped me a ton. Looking forward to the streams and hopefully getting to 1v1 and get a sign in my profile . Forever the 🐐of rocket league

This the kinda video that’ll make a grown man cry… Thank you Squishy for making Rocket league a memorable game for lots of us

This dude didn't just do a lot for pro scene. He did sooo much for whole game. He was the best game's ambassador, he made the game what it is this whole time. I'm so glad that he was part of this game, even part of my life, cuz he made me fall in love with rocket league. Finally, he will start to enjoy whatever he decides to do, like the days before. Good luck in future and enjoy it every second as much as you can! You really deserved it!

This actually made me cry tho and the fans are amazing. U inspired me to carry on playing rocket league when i was not motivated to play cuz i was bad at rl Thank u for everything UR A LEGEND SQUISHY🎉🎉

Started playing in 2019 and this man had a huge impact on my gameplay. Love you squish and congrats on a great career!

The only reason I started playing rocket league was cause you made learning it fun and informative. Thank you brother. Can't wait to see all the new content

Really didnt think i will experience anything like Shroud's retirement but Squishy's hits hard

I just want to give a huge thanks to you. Your content, your advice and motivation is what has pushed me to play rocket league for as long as I have. I remember watching your videos and just getting so excited that I just had to hop on and try to mimick what you do and put your advice into play. I literally changed my gamertag to “SquishyfromWish_” becuase I wanted it to have something to do with you (but I lacked creativity apparently lol). I obviously play nothing like you when I changed it so I figured it be humorous to put that I was the “Wish” version of Squishy. You helped me go from plat 1 to champ 2. I have a son now so I don’t play as much as I used to so I don’t progress. but nonetheless, Thank you, you’ve helped and inspired a lot more people than you think. Good luck in everything you pursue.

There will never be another like you man. Forever the goat. Shit makes me wanna cry cause I’ve been watching rl from the rip.

Definitely shed a tear. Thanks for everything Squishy, been watching you since I started playing rocket league

You and Johnny Boi were really the only RL content I watched. Thanks for being great in every way.

I wish you the best man, you inspired a lot of people , I think you were the first pro that I saw when starting playing and I couldn't even hit the ball properly and seeing you do those crazy things pushed me to play for a lot of years. A true Rocket League legend, thank you.

Played rocket league since the first date it came out on ps4 You, Rizz and John Sandman were my buddies, literally my friends Thank you for your massive impact, for your calm profesionalism

Thank you for your huge impact on the competitive scene. Hopefully theres lots more content to come. Good luck wherever life takes you squishy❤️

An amazing send off for the amazing career of an amazing Rocket League player. Congrats Squishy on your retirement from pro play! 🎉

The GOAT. Enough said.

You were the first youtube video on rocket league I ever watched and was hooked ever since. Thank you for providing me a great outlet since the summer of 2019. Love you Mr. Muffinz

You were literally the reason i started grinding this game bro! Good luck on whatever comes next for you in life! Much love from Germany.

Well deserved Squishy...you were the first Pro player that I really started to follow and seeing your runs really got me hooked onto this game. All the best in your next endeavors

Bro this feels like a hunger games send off, surreal to see this is real life

Thank you Squishy for all the content you provide for us. It’s sad to see you go from the pro scene but I know it’s a blessing for you to relax and look back on all your accolades. Definitely one of the greatest to ever do it. I’ll continue to support and watch your content as will many others. Good luck on what the future holds for you and congratulations on your engagement! We love you!

I remember in fourth year university my buddy showed me this rocket game we had set up a 30 ft ethernet and jigged up multiple things to get better internet through 3 floors to the router playing on his lap top split screen that could barely run solitaire. Now I'm watching Squishy as a 29 year old man and have been since he started. This man is the face of rocket league forever

i FUCKING LOVE YOU Squishy, you showed me the best of RL in the worst moment of my life. Thanks for all you do and do not ever doubt yourself, you are great, you are worth it and you ARE GOING TO KILL IT!!

Next US major they need to do a special segment again for you so the Americans can properly thank you for all you've done for us.

absolutely killed it buddy been watchin u since 2018 have a good retirement absolutely deserved !

Been watching since the beginning, sad not be able to watch you compete professionally anymore but on to the next chapter. Squishies forever the GOAT.

squishy thank you for everything your advice your time and love you’re amazing i’ve seriously was able to hit grand champ because of you and you helped all of us in every way possible thank you for everything

Never ganna be forgotten in the rl scene, watched you since 2019 I was 12-13, now I’m 18 man it’s crazy how time flies in quarantine I was watching you play rl instead of doing my work ganna look forward to the content coming soon and you are by far the most well rounded player of all time, I’ve never gotten to ssl or anything like that but truly a inspiration to everyone!

Imagine squishy's kids in school, their friends talking about playing rocket league and he can flex who his dad is

This made me tear up ngl. Thank you for everything you've done and continue to do.

You're a genuinly nice guy. And your RL videos were so helpful to me. The way you calmly talk while playing very high level and describing everything is incredible.
