The Savage Speeders are a red, yellow and white team that debuted in Marble League 2016, and are represented by Speedy, Rapidly, Velocity and Swifty, with Whizzy as their reserve. They are one of the four teams alongside Mellow Yellow, the O'rangers and the Thunderbolts to have never missed a Marble League since its inception in 2016.
Regarded as one of the best teams in all of Marble Sports, the Savage Speeders hail from the European cities of Accellaise, Pace, and Vellis. They were already professional marble athletes themselves, even before Marble League, having competed in Le Tour de Vellis. They are also known to be secretive about their training methods.[1] The team would qualify for Marble League 2016 after their victory at the Le Tour de Vellis in 2015. The Savage Speeders would become the first Marble League champions, winning Marble League 2016 with four gold medals and 44 points. They would then finish in 2nd place in 2017 and 2018, losing out to the O'rangers and the Midnight Wisps respectively. The team would also finish in 5th in Marble League 2019 despite a strong start to the season.
The Savage Speeders are also renowned for their performances in Marbula One, as they won the first season of Marbula One with 101 points, as well as finishing runners-up in Marbula One Season 2 with 122 points, though lost by over 60 points to a dominating Crazy Cat's Eyes. In Marble League 2020, the Savage Speeders got off to a rough start, ending up in last place after two events. After a strong second half of the season, combined with the O'rangers' poor showings towards the end of the season, they won the Marble League with 202 points and 7 medals, therefore also completing the treble after winning both Marbula One Season 1 and the Marble League 2020 Qualifiers the same year. Their streak of top-5 finishes in the Marble League would end in 2021, when they finished 12th in the Marble League after poor performances in the final two events of the season. Overall, the Savage Speeders hold a number of Marble League records due to their successes in Marble Sports, being the most successful team in terms of all time points in the Marble League (820), gold medals (13), and total medals (26). They also hold the record for most medals in Marbula One (9) and the most successful team in terms of all-time points in Marbula One (223).
The Savage Speeders is also well known for their long-standing rivalry with the O'rangers due to both teams' status as one of the most successful teams in Marble Sports.

History
Pre-Marble League

Four of the original members of the Savage Speeders
The Savage Speeders come from three European cities – Accellaise on the southern coast, Pace on the same coastline to the east, and the capital city of Vellis, each of which are individually known for their cultural, artistic, and economic significance. Speedy and Rapidly are siblings from Accellaise, Velocity comes from Pace, and Swifty and Whizzy are friends who hail from Vellis.
The five met in 2010 during Le Tour de Vellis, a marathon event held in Vellis and running throughout the country. Speedy and Rapidly had previously competed in local tournaments at Accellaise, so they had no hesitation forming a team with Velocity, Whizzy and Swifty when Velocity brought up the idea. The five trained vigorously over the next two years in order to qualify for the marathon. After successfully qualifying, they then made headlines by finishing in 5th, a feat unheard of for a rookie team.
The team disclosed very little about their training as they consider it one of their most important secrets. They continued to compete in the next three years, never finishing below the top five. In 2014, they won the Tour for the first time, and repeated that victory the next year. The public started to compare the team to the unstoppable force of early berserkers, describing them as "savage". The team liked it and decided to adopt that word for themselves, becoming the Savage Speeders.[4]
2016
The Savage Speeders were approached by Greg Woods in private to see whether they were interested in taking part in Marble League 2016. After accepting Woods' invitation, the team announced they would retire from Le Tour de Vellis. They purchased a stadium in Accellaise and named it Le Course de Sauvage. The lack of explanation led to widespread confusion and disappointment from fans.

The Savage Speeders win the Relay Race
The Savage Speeders competed in Marble League 2016, but due to the roster limit Whizzy elected to watch from the sidelines. The team started Marble League 2016 fairly inauspiciously, finishing 5th in the Event 1, Balancing. They earned their first gold medal and set a new Marble League Record in the Event 2, the Relay Race. After accumulating a single point throughout the next three events, the team was starting to fall behind, before Velocity won gold in Event 6, the Water Race, and Rapidly won again in Event 8, the 10 Meter Sprint, breaking another Marble League Record.
The next three events were quiet, with the team failling to earn any points but still holding on to 2nd place, until the finalHurdles event. Speedy played a solid first race, winning by 0.20 seconds and qualifying for the finals. Here they met the Thunderbolts and Mellow Yellow, preliminary 1st and 2nd place respectively. With only 2 points separating the three, whomever won this would win the entire season. The final race is widely regarded as one of the best events in Marble League history, with less than 0.03 seconds separating the top three teams. It came down to a photo finish between Speedy and Yellup of Mellow Yellow, which revealed that Speedy had won by 0.01 seconds, winning their team their fourth gold of Marble League 2016, and in turn the championship. The final race of the hurdles event holds the record for the closest grand final race in Marble League history.

The Savage Speeders win Marble League 2016
Following their victory, the Speeders went around the world on a victory tour. The tour ended with the team arriving in Vellis, where a day-long parade was held along the same route as the year's Le Tour de Vellis. The team were presented with an honorary key to the city, leading to the team hashtag, "#SpeedIsKey".
Over the next six months, the Savage Speeders revealed nothing to the public about their offseason training, which becomes standard practice for the team. Their stadium is usually closed to the public and is guarded by local police. In response, some marble sports fans posted joke events on MarBook every year, which involved raiding the stadium in an attempt to discover the team's secrets. None have ever happened, although one year a streaker rolled past the stadium and was apprehended by security.[4]
2017
Since the Savage Speeders had won the previous Marble League, they automatically qualified for Marble League 2017. Whizzy took Velocity's place on the roster, participating in Event 1, the Funnel Race, placing 4th. This was followed by a 6th place finish for Rapidly in Event 2, Long Jump, and an 11th place finish for the team in Event 3, Fidget Spinner Collision. With only 27 points after 3 events, they were ranked 11th overall.

Savage Speeders on the podium after the Relay Run
However, the Savage Speeders proved their status with a silver medal for Speedy in the 5-meter Sprint, followed by another silver for Swifty in the Hurdles. The team jumped to 1st, then pushed their lead to 22 points with a gold medal in Event 6, the Relay Run. They hovered around a 20-point lead for the next two events, Block Pushing andHigh Jump. They then went on to win another gold medal in Event 9, Steeplechase. The team remained in the lead after the event, and were 27 points ahead of Mellow Yellow.
Despite their dominating lead, the team struggled with keeping up their momentum. They would not medal again for the rest of the event. Event 10 and 11, Archery and the Underwater Race, saw the team earning only 7 points combined. Meanwhile a resurging O'rangers rose to second overall, going into the last event only 10 points behind the Speeders after a silver in the Underwater Race.

The Savage Speeders come second in Marble League 2017
Swifty had the responsibility of defending the first place in the last event, Sand Rally. However, they failed to live up to expectations, getting knocked out already in the first round. Clementin of the O'rangers finished 2nd in the finals, passing the Speeders by only 6 points overall to win the League. The Savage Speeders ended the season as a sour runner-up, but still automatically qualified for Marble League 2018.[4]
2018
The Savage Speeders disappeared from the public for much of the off-season, and made their next public appearance at the Marble League 2018 Friendly Round. Velocity rejoined the team as the reserve member. They placed 3rd in every event, ending the friendlies in last place.

The Savage Speeders win bronze in the 5 Meter Ice Dash
The Marble League 2018 for the Savage Speeders was characterized by waves of good and bad performances. Swifty opened with a bronze medal in the 5 Meter Ice Dash, behind the Oceanics and rookie Hazers. However, Speedy faltered in the Ski Jump, placing last and putting the team 9th overall.
Reserve Velocity was called in to replace Speedy for the next team event, the Halfpipe, after the latter's poor performance. The move won them a silver medal, despite placing last in the first round of the event. The alternating pattern continued with a 13th finish in Event 4, the Bobsled, another silver in Event 5, Speed Skating, placing 12th in Team Pursuit, and finally their third silver medal in the Snow Rally, where Whizzy narrowly lost to Momo of Team Momary.

The Savage Speeders come second in Marble League 2018
A disappointing Event 9, Curling, where the team placed 11th, finally knocked the Speeders into 3rd place, where they remained after placing 8th in Event 10, the Biathlon. With only two events left and only 41 points separating 1st and 13th place, the final two events would be an open race with the Speeders in 3rd a clear favourite. They managed bronze in Ice Hockey, but Whizzy lost the finals of the Sand Mogul Race narrowly to Wispy of the Midnight Wisps. The Wisps, having placed 1st in the previous evnet, jumped from 10th 1st in only two events, eclipsing the Speeders by only 1 point and winning the Marble League 2018.
The Savage Speeders made two public appearances during the off-season. Whizzy represented the team in the 100 Meter Water Race, where they finished 6th. The team also took part in the Amazing Maze Marble Race. In the group stage the Speeders placed 2nd, but qualified for the semifinals thanks to their high points. The team went on to the final where they finnished 3rd.[4]
2019
The Savage Speeders' next off-season public appearance was at the Marble League 2019 Friendly Round, which they again attended due to their automatic qualification for Marble League 2019. Once again, the team finished in last with only nine points, failing to win any events.
In late February 2019, the Savage Speeders hired Quickly as their coach. After observing the team members' pent-up frustration from missing out on the last two Marble League championship titles, Quickly deduced the team blamed the other teams for their losses instead of trying to get over those losses, leading to a lot of toxic energy. Quickly advised them to transmute their toxic energy into a positive performance.

The Savage Speeders win their second consecutive gold in the Funnel Race
The Savage Speeders had a strong start to Marble League 2019, with a gold medal for Rapidly in the first event, the Underwater Race, followed by another gold for Speedy in Event 2, the Funnel Race. Afterwards, the team slipped in performance, placing within the top half in only three of the next seven events. Whizzy shocked everyone by placing dead last in Event 5, the 5 Meter Sprint, and the team slipped to 2nd in the overall standings. The next events were not much better, with the team dropping to 7th place by Event 9, the Hurdles Race. A bronze medal in the Hubelino Maze brought the team up to 4th in standings.
The next event, the Dirt Race, set the tone for the rest of the season. Swifty qualified for the final. They nearly crashed out during the first third of the final, but with a burst of speed, they rolled past Ducky of the Green Ducks into first. However, just before the finish line, Pinky Toe of the Pinkies zoomed down the course out of nowhere, ending up just behind Swifty, who promptly responded by trying to block them. Pinky Toe got past Swifty and won the Pinkies their first ever gold medal. Swifty was so stunned, they didn't even notice they were passed by Ducky. Rozzy of the Raspberry Racers beat them for the bronze medal by five-hundredths of a second.

The Savage Speeders were left trailing the top three teams by twenty points. A string of mediocre finishes followed. After Event 14, Surfing, the team could still finish in the top three with good finishes in the final two events, but they fell apart and came last in Event 15, Collision. They fell to fifth, losing out on fourth to Mellow Yellow. Rapidly could not turn this around as they finished the final event, the Sand Rally, in fifth. The Savage Speeders concluded Marble League 2019 in fifth overall, the team's worst result so far. Not only was this the first time they had finished outside of the top three, this was also the first time they would not automatically qualify for a Marble League tournament.
Despite their disappointing performance, the team were invited to take part in Marbula One Season 1. The team promptly accepted the invitation, and chose Speedy and Rapidly, going by the nicknames of "Speed Freak" and "Maroon Missile" respectively, to represent them. The Savage Speeders had also been selected to host the first ever Marbula One Grand Prix[5]. The rest of the team went on to prepare Le Course de Sauvage for Marbula One, building the course themselves. They named the course the Savage Speedway, and also renamed the stadium to clear up confusion.[4]
2020
Marbula One Season 1
Speedy was selected to take part in the Savage Speedway Grand Prix and, during the qualifiers, set a time of 31.20 seconds. Unfortunately, everyone else managed to beat that time and they qualified in last place. However, Speedy was able to make up for it in the race. By lap 3, they had moved up into third place, and Speedy eventually finished the race in fifth, earning ten points and also an extra point for setting the fastest lap.

Rapidly helps Wospy start again at the O'raceway Grand Prix
Rapidly debuted at the second Grand Prix, the O'raceway Grand Prix, and qualified in sixth. During the race, Rapidly managed to enter the top five and stayed there for most of the race. They only left the top five when they assisted Wospy of the Midnight Wisps, who had fallen off the conveyor belt and stopped rolling. Their bump got Wospy moving again. Rapidly climbed up the ranks again into second, and closed in on Billy of the Green Ducks. Ultimately, Rapidly was unable to surpass them and finished in second place. The Savage Speeders rose to third in the team standings.
Living up to their name, the Savage Speeders continued to do well in the next two events. Speedy came sixth at the Momotorway Grand Prix, while Rapidly got another second place finish at the Hivedrive Grand Prix. This put them into first in the individual racers' standings and helped the Savage Speeders stay in third in the team standings.
However, Rapidly was tired from their last Grand Prix and finished the Greenstone Grand Prix in 15th place. Coach Quickly decided to put Speedy in for the Short Circuit Grand Prix, where they finished in third after leading the race for four of the laps. This put the Savage Speeders into first overall, but Rapidly lost the lead in the individual standings. Rapidly managed to redeem themselves by finishing seventh in their last Grand Prix, the Razzway Grand Prix, but the team dropped to second, fourteen point behind the Hazers, thanks to Smoggy's race win there. Rapidly was no longer able to win the individual Racers' Championship.
The Savage Speeders went into the final looking to win the first ever Marbula One season, just like in Marble League 2016. Speedy captured pole position at the Qualifiers at the Midnight Bay Grand Prix, which was unfortunately mired in controversy due to the fact that they started their qualifying lap a few seconds after Clementin of the O'rangers started their lap. Even though Speedy was found to have gained no advantage from their early start, some angry fans started to accuse the Savage Speeders of cheating once again.

The Speeders win Marbula One Season 1
Speedy and shot into the lead from the beginning, staying there for all but two of the laps. Their fight for the lead with Prim of Team Primary notwithstanding, Speedy was still able to finish the race in first, earning them the much-desired individual Racers' Championship title. With Hazy of the Hazers finishing in eighth, the Savage Speeders had also won the Marbula One Season 1 Teams' Championship. Rapidly finished in sixth in the individual Racers' Championship.[4]
Marble League 2020
Sometime after Marbula One, the team had a change in their roster, where Whizzy and Velocity would swap places, with Velocity back to the main team roster and Whizzy becoming the reserve member. The Savage Speeders entered the Marble League 2020 Qualifiers, their first qualifiers ever. They managed to finish in the top three in all but one event and comfortably qualified for Marble League 2020 in first overall.
Unfortunately the Speeders did not keep up their good performances. In the first event, Balancing, the Speeders failed to have anyone land in the finish zone, finishing in 14th. They followed this up by finishing second-to-last in the Halfpipe, as they dropped to last place overall for the first time in their history with just 3 points.

Whizzy wins a bronze medal in Funnel Endurance
The Speeders started to recover with a bronze medal in the Funnel Endurance (courtesy of Whizzy), then a 9th place finish in the Newton's Cradle. The Savage Speeders continued to deliver, with consistent top half finishes in the next 5 events, including another bronze medal in the 5 Meter Hurdles, taking them to eighth overall.
The Speeders continued their upward trajectory with three consecutive podiums. They won their third bronze medal in the 5 Meter Sprint followed by two golds in the Black Hole Funnel and the Relay Run, propelling them into 2nd overall, ten points behind the dominant O'rangers with four events remaining. There podium streak was ended by a miscalculated jump early on by Whizzy in the High Jump, causing them to finish last. The O'rangers took advantage of this and won the event with a dominating performance, extending their lead at the top to 35 points, making it almost impossible for anyone to surpass them.
Capitalizing on the Oceanics' upset victory over the O'rangers in the first round of the next event, the Team Aquathlon, the Savage Speeders fought their way to the final, earning themselves a silver medal after losing to the Midnight Wisps, shrinking the O'rangers lead to 20 points. Then, in a colossal improvement from the previous year, the team won a third gold medal in Collision. This performance, on top of the O'rangers' 16th place finish (another reverse of the 2019 event), brought the Savage Speeders to the top of the leaderboard, with a slender 5 point lead carried into the final event: the Marble Marathon.

The Savage Speeders win Marble League 2020
The Marathon initially went well for Speedy, who performed well in the placement race to finish 2nd. Unfortunately, a hard collision as the actual event started cost Speedy all their momentum, leaving them stranded. However, Speedy pulled back a few spots towards the end to finish in 9th. With only an 8th place finish for Wospy of the Midnight Wisps and an 11th place finish for Kinnowin of the O'rangers, Speedy had done enough. The Savage Speeders, despite their poor start, finally had their revenge after their 2017 heartbreak, and won Marble League 2020, becoming the first team in the history of Marble League to win the championship twice, shattering the Wisps and the O'rangers' hopes of a repeat championship. After the trophy presentation, the Speeders formed a circle around the trophy with the title rivals O'rangers in celebration, as a gesture of goodwill and sportsmanship. Both teams, alongside the third-placed Minty Maniacs, secured a spot in Marble League 2021.
Marbula One Season 2

Speedy falls off the track at the Minty Mania Grand Prix
With their historic treble-winning campaign, the Savage Speeders were invited to participate in Marbula One Season 2, which they accepted, and sent out Speedy and Rapidly again for the season. The season didn't start off too well. During lap 5 in the first Grand Prix, Speedy fell off the conveyor belt, and fell in-between the guides. The Speeders subsequently dropped out of the Grand Prix. Thankfully, it was confirmed that Speedy's injuries were minor, and they were able to compete again.[6] Unfortunately Rapidly also had a poor start to the season, finishing in last in the O'raceway Grand Prix. As a result, the team dropped to second-to-bottom overall.
In the Honeydome Grand Prix, Speedy had fully recovered from the injury and took pole position, earning the Speeders their first point of the season. Then, Speedy came back from 8th place to first overall and kept it throughout the second-half of the race, winning the Grand Prix and taking the Speeders up to 5th place overall. However, Rapidly struggled again at the Aquamaring Grand Prix and again finished last, dropping them to 7th overall. At the next Grand Prix, the Tumult Turnpike Grand Prix, Speedy only just qualified in 16th but managed to fight up to a 9th place finish. Rapidly's misfortune continued at the Arctic Circuit Grand Prix as they finished the Qualifiers in 17th, failing to qualify for the Grand Prix, the first time the Speeders' had failed to qualify for any event. As a result, the Speeders were in 11th overall halfway through Marbula One Season 2.
2021
Marble League Winter Special

Savage Speeders losing to Raspberry Racers in Ice Hockey Final
The Savage Speeders were invited to participate in the Marble League Winter Special and accepted. They got off to a decent start, with Swifty getting 5th in the Ice Dash, along with Whizzy getting 6th in Snowboard Cross. However, Velocity's 15th place in Speed Skating dropped them to 9th in the standings. A 6th place finish in Bobsled was not enough and they dropped to 10th in the standings, losing the chance to become champion in this tournament. Still, they ended the Winter Special on a high note by winning a silver medal in Ice Hockey, finishing the tournament in 7th overall.
Marbula One Season 2

Rapidly after winning the Midnight Bay GP (S2)
After the Winter Special, the second half of Marbula One Season 2 started off with a good performance from Speedy at the Raceforest Grand Prix. After qualifying in 2nd, they battled for the lead throughout the entire race and finished 2nd, losing only to Red Eye of the Crazy Cat's Eyes. With their second podium finish of the season, the Savage Speeders climbed up to 7th overall. At the Momotorway Grand Prix, however, Rapidly continued to struggle and finished last again, sending the team down to 9th overall. With another second place from Speedy at the Palette Park Grand Prix, the Savage Speeders climbed back up to 5th. With three races left to go, however, they were no longer able to defend the Teams' Championship. At the Misty Mountain Grand Prix, Rapidly recovered from their bad form and finished 3rd, not only scoring their first points of the season but also winning their first medal in Season 2. This brought the Speeders up to 4th overall. Speedy then finished 6th at the team's home race, the Savage Speedway Grand Prix. At the final race of the season, the Midnight Bay Grand Prix, Rapidly showed they were actually back to form, and secured their first race win in Marbula One. As a result, the Savage Speeders finished the season in 2nd place overall, with Speedy taking 2nd place in the individual championship as well.
Marble League 2021
After Marbula One Season 2, Rapidly was sent to participate in the Marble League 2021 Practice Race. Rapidly was in top 8 for the first half of the race, but they chose the slower path during midway of the race and was never able to recover. They finished the race in 23rd out of 28 marbles.
Being one of the auto-qualified teams, the Savage Speeders took part in the Marble League 2021 Friendly Round. They finished 2nd in all but one event, and also finished the Friendly Round in 2nd.
Going into the main tournament, the Savage Speeders started off with a string of mid-table results, coming 10th in both Wave and Balancing, and finishing 11th at the 5 Meter Sprint. Despite finishing 6th in Funnel Endurance, they were sitting in 13th after four events. At the following event, however, the Speeders were able to win a gold medal in the 5 Meter Relay, marking their fourth gold in the Relay Run, propelling them up to 4th. They maintained their position with a 4th place in Jousting, and even climbed to 3rd overall despite two 8th place finishes at the 5 Meter Hurdles and Block Pushing. At the Triathlon, Rapidly won the team's second gold of the season, maintaining their 3rd place. However, due to three bottom-half results in the following four events, they dropped to 6th overall after 13 events. With a 4th place at the Sand Rally, they climbed back up to 4th. A 15th place in Football sent the Speeders back down to 8th overall, but they were one of eleven teams still mathematically able to win the Marble League with one event to go. The final event, Marblocross, was a Marbula One style event, making their captain Speedy the obvious choice. This time, however, Speedy was unable to live up to the expectations, as they only finished 14th. With Kinnowin of the O'rangers winning a silver medal in this event, the Savage Speeders even fell behind their rivals, with 4 points separating the two teams from each other. The Speeders finished the tournament in 12th, which was not only the team's worst overall result, but also the worst result in any team's title-defending campaign. For the second time, the Savage Speeders finished a Marble League outside of the top three, and thus, this was also the second time they did not automatically qualify for a Marble League tournament.
2022
Marbula One Season 3
Despite going through a rough patch in Marble League 2021, the Savage Speeders received an invitation to participate in Marbula One Season 3. Once again, they accepted, sending out Speedy and Rapidly for the third consecutive season. They had an average first half of the season. Rapidly qualified in 4th at the season opener at Tumult Turnpike, but only managed a 12th place finish. Speedy's first race of the season was slightly better as they qualified 5th and finished 9th at the Sleet Street Grand Prix. For the next two races, the upward trend continued, with Rapidly finishing 8th at the Misty Mountain Grand Prix, and Speedy getting 6th place at the O'raceway Grand Prix. However, this was followed up by the Speeders' first scoreless race of the season, as Rapidly finished only 16th at the Mellow Meadows Grand Prix. Speedy concluded the first half of the season with an 11th place finish at the Honeydome Grand Prix. Halfway through Season 3, the Savage Speeders sat in 13th in the team standings, with Speedy and Rapidly sitting in 19th and 27th of the individual standings respectively.

Trivia
- In both the 2016 and 2017 editions of the Marble League, some viewers accused the Savage Speeders of doping due to strong performances in both editions. Jelle's Marble Runs later confirmed that all testing discovered no illegal substances[7].
- After winning Steeplechase on 9 August 2017, the Savage Speeders become the first team to win different events on the same day of different years. They won the Relay Race on 9 August 2016.
- Each of the Savage Speeders' team members has finished on the podium of individual events at least twice.
- The Savage Speeders had at one point held the lead for points in every Marble League season they have competed in, this streak ended in Marble League 2021, as they were in the top three for most of the competition, but they fell down the standings to finish in 12th place overall. They have also won at least two medals in every season.
- The Savage Speeders currently hold the record for the most total medals (26), most gold medals (13), and most silver medals (7) at the Marble League (excluding all Qualifier and Showdown results).

- The Savage Speeders were the third team to win two consecutive gold medals in the first two events of Marble League 2019: the Underwater Race and the Funnel Race. They were preceded by the Balls of Chaos and the Midnight Wisps, both of whom achieved the feat during Marble League 2018.
- The Savage Speeders have a rivalry with a number of other Marble League teams, most notably with the O'rangers due to their status as the two best teams in history.
- The Savage Speeders have won the inaugural seasons of both major competitions they have participated in. They won Marble League 2016 and Marbula One Season 1.
- The Savage Speeders became the first team to swap a reserve member and a regular member, when Velocity replaced Whizzy in 2020.
- They are the only team to win two Marble Leagues - Marble League 2016 and Marble League 2020 - as well as being the first team to win two different tournaments in one year (Marbula 1 and Marble League).
- They are the first team to place 16th and 1st in the overall leaderboard at one point in the same Marble League.
- The Savage Speeders are one of only four teams to have qualified for every Marble League as of 2021.
