History

Royal Flush was founded in October 2007, exactly one year after the foundation of New Age of Smash. The founders decided to drop the old crew in order to start a new one with only the four NAS members living in Freiburg.

After the first Monthly Smash in Freiburg MUGG left the crew and Makkura joined. Matux joined after the 2nd Monthly. In April 08, right before the Super Lion Tournament 2 in Lyon (France), AE. joined the Crew. After the first Freiburg Monthly, they decided to put lexxil and Matux on the "substitutes' bench", because both of them are mostly inactive and pheX and P!z@ joined the crew. AE., P!z@, and lexxil had to leave in 09 due to inactivity and other disputes. Panda joined in the middle of 2009 and Usleon in late 2009.

From 2009 Royal Flush was heavily cooperateing with the crew Gear (using the alias of GeaRaF), they mostly teamed up for crew battles. The cooperation ended with the the dissolution of Gear in 2011.

The crew formerly based in Freiburg is now spread throughout Germany and Europe. Stivo joined after Osmash 2 making the biggest part of the crew located in the north of Germany. Both Makkura and Panda left in 2013 due to inactivity.

Former austrian Smasher Pasi, who is currently living in Hamburg, usually joins RaF for crew matches despite not being an official member of the crew.
