- The opening credits, pregame warmups, corporate anthem, and first Houston-Madrid game are proposed together as a rewatchable opening sequence.
- The opening game is praised for making the invented sport understandable through wide shots, close-ups, scoring, and Moonpie's swooper role.
- Jonathan's team lecture and the interview that introduces his scoring and injury records are added as scene candidates.
- The futuristic party is praised for revealing designer-drug use, assigned relationships, social control, and casual environmental destruction without exposition.
- The Houston-Tokyo game is nominated for its no-penalties premise, escalating violence, ball-to-the-head impact, and Moonpie's injury.
- Jonathan erasing Ella's videos during their breakup is proposed as another rewatchable scene.
- The final against New York is nominated for its no-penalties setup, attrition, strategy, and Jonathan's survival.
