Middle East & North Africa

MENA Rocket League — Middle East & North Africa

MENA is the Middle East and North Africa region of Rocket League esports. Rocket Draft covers it in depth: 29 real RLCS lineups from 17 organizations, and a Region-Locked Draft that deals from nothing else — free in your browser.

What MENA means in Rocket League

MENA stands for the Middle East and North Africa. It is one of the regions of the Rocket League Championship Series, next to NA, EU, SAM, OCE, APAC and SSA. Each region runs its own qualifiers and regional events, and its best teams earn the region's places at the international Majors and the World Championship. The scene draws its players from Saudi Arabia first, with Morocco, the Gulf states and the rest of North Africa alongside. Organizations such as Team Falcons, Twisted Minds, Rule One, Sandrock Gaming, 01 Esports, 5Head have all fielded MENA rosters, and every one of them is in the game.

MENA in the Rocket Draft database

The MENA database holds 29 lineups from 17 organizations and 34 players, across 7 seasons from RLCS X to RLCS 2027. Every roster is a real one, researched by hand from Liquipedia, and every player carries an overall reviewed by hand. The team and player pages list each of them season by season.

The MENA numbers that stand out

The highest-rated MENA roster in the database is Team Falcons in RLCS 2025, with a team average of 94. Kiileerrz holds the region’s highest overall, 95. Team Falcons has the most rosters on file, 6, and Kiileerrz appears in the most seasons, 6. The lists below link to each of them.

The MENA region-locked draft

Region-Locked Draft narrows the game to one scene. Pick MENA in the setup and every round deals a MENA lineup; you still take one card per lineup until you hold three players, a coach, a substitute and an organization. The tournament field is MENA too, so the bracket you survive is the region's own history.

Deeper than the Worlds rosters

The pool combines two layers: the MENA teams that reached a World Championship and the regional rosters that never did. That second layer is where the local heroes and near-misses live — the teams a MENA fan watched every weekend and a worldwide draft never shows.

What region-lock changes, and what it does not

Only the pool changes. Difficulty, chemistry and the 16-team tournament — a Swiss stage into double-elimination playoffs — play as usual. Same-country and same-organization links land more often inside one region, so a coherent MENA roster can beat a scattered mix of bigger names.
