On Thursday last week, Psyonix performed scheduled maintenance to move the PsyNet (backend infrastructure) to an updated version of MySQL. Once a peak number of concurrent players hit 315,000 on Friday, PsyNet started experiencing critical errors, which continued throughout the weekend, and now.

On February 1, connection errors were reported in the title servers globally, which caused teams not to meet in the game rooms. During the streams the teams could not meet to fight the fighting and, after several delays to fix the problem, Psyonix decided to suspend them and reorganize the calendar, according to RLCS, Rivals Play-Ins, and CRL.

"We understand that this is frustrating, but we feel it is in the best interest of competitive integrity to move them [RLCS matches] rather than attempt to play them out." explained the official Rocket League eSports twittered.
