Who We Are
Built By Players, For Players Who Refuse To Plateau
We opened our doors on Rivington Street in 2016 with six PCs and one rule: leave every session sharper than you arrived. Today RapidAssaultCore spans two floors of a converted print works, wired end-to-end with 1Gbps fibre and 240Hz displays.
Our coaches have competed in the ESL Premiership and the WePlay circuit. They don't just tell you to aim better — they break down your VODs frame by frame, rebuild your crosshair placement, and hold you accountable between sessions.
- 240Hz displays & 1Gbps low-latency fibre on every station
- Ex-pro coaching staff across FPS, MOBA and fighting titles
- Soundproofed scrim rooms for full five-stack practice

"Went from Silver 2 to Platinum in seven weeks. My coach actually pulled up my demos and showed me exactly where I was overpeeking. Worth every pound."
"The weekend bootcamp was the best £180 I've spent on the game. Ten players, real scrims, and a filmed review that I still rewatch. Booking the next one."
"We hosted our uni society cup here. Brackets ran on time, the casting desk made it feel legit, and the stream looked properly professional. Faultless."
