Rocket League gives us players sooooo many options to customize our car to our liking. From the Battle Car to the tires to explosions when we score a goal and other effects…. Customization in this game is very nice and the variety of options is insane! Most of the time, the actual car models are the stars when choosing your vehicle. But this often overlooks other items that are at least as cool – if not cooler! That’s why we’re taking a look at the toppers in Rocket League in a little mini-series. Many are cool, others rather lame – and today we’ll show you our favorites among the more common toppers. These are easy to get, and you’ve probably seen them on your opponents often enough. But these five have the most style!

5. Sushi: Mmmhmm, delicious! A must for any lover of Japanese cuisine – not only when visiting your favorite Asian restaurant, but also on your Battle Car in Rocket League. And you have to admit, the topper isn’t as out of place as you might think. You spin and roll in the air in the game…. Sushi roll… it fits! This topper tastes good! (Source: Psyonix / Imgur)

4. Halo: You play the innocent angel… and then you snap like a machine! Sounds like a good plan, right? Actually, you might as well put on the devil horns to show off your devilishly good skill (they’re easy to get, too). But there’s nothing better than when your opponent thinks you’re a good player and underestimates you – before you strike ice-cold. (Source: Psyonix / Reddit)

3. Pizza Topper: This list makes you really hungry! But you have to admit, the pizza topper is cool – just like pizza itself. And there’s nothing like a relaxing Rocket League evening with pizza. Bon appetit! (Source: Psyonix / Reddit)

2. Shark Bite: Yes, there are some Hot Wheels items in Rocket League, even dedicated DLC packs with content from the toy car brand. Rocket League x Hot Wheels might even be THE collab of this game! But the coolest by far is the Shark Bite topper. A shark with razor sharp teeth that destroys a looping course – with this thing on the roof of your car, all you can do is shave! Eat your opponents!

1. King’s Crown: Honor to whom honor is due! Namely, the king – the king of toppers in Rocket League. (at least of the more common toppers, we’ll get to the rarer ones) You control the ball and the opponent, and you determine how the game goes. There can only be one king. Show that you are the true king on the Rocket League court with this crown! (Source: Psyonix / BarberOnFleetSt via YouTube)

Rocket League Explained – Car-football for Dummies

Soccer meets racing. In Rocket League, you go hunting for goals with Turbo. What sounds simple can quickly become complex due to the variety of techniques to control the ball. Here’s your beginner’s guide to getting started as a Rocket League pro, including all the terminology you need to know.

Rocket League is a video game published by Psyonix and belongs to the genre (game category) “sports simulation”. These are games where players can virtually practice a sport. In the case of Rocket League, this is a combination of soccer and racing, played on a futuristic soccer field.

Players compete alone or with up to 3 other players in a team, with the goal of scoring as many goals as possible. The winner is the team that has scored more goals at the end of the time. A round lasts about 5 minutes, but is extended with a golden goal in case of a draw. Unlike in conventional soccer, the players do not control people here, but special cars that drive across the pitch.

Rocket League offers a variety of game modes. From classic car-football to fun game modes with mutators. These are selected before the start of each game. In eSports, only the classic mode without mutators is used.

The Rocket League ABC

In Rocket League, the goal is to master the car, learn special moves, and still keep track of the field. When pros throw around terms like 50/50 or double tab, it’s easy to lose track as a newbie. So that you can shine with your knowledge both in the game and in the stream, we have summarized the most important terms of the Rocket League universe for you here.

50/50 – When two or more players touch the ball at the same time, a kind of press ball is created. The direction in which the ball ultimately flies is random and resembles a 50/50 chance.

Aerial – Unlike classic soccer, Rocket League is not only played on the ground, due to their boost, players can also move in the air for a short time, dribble the ball there or start a shot attempt. As soon as a player leaves the ground he makes aerial actions.

Ballchasing – If a player is chasing the ball all the time and neglects his position, this is called ballchasing.

Boost – To bring the car faster to a higher speed there is boost. The players also use this to fly and steer with the cars.

Demolition – The possibility of demolition shows that Rocket League does not always have to be harmless. Here you drive at high speed through the car of another player and destroy the vehicle. The player is taken out of the game for a short time until respawn and the own team has a higher chance to score a goal.

Double Touch – Double Touch is a term often heard in professional Rocket League streams. This refers to a player scoring a goal by first shooting the ball at the wall next to, or above the opponent’s goal and then sending the rebound towards the goal.

Flick – Controlling the ball is the name of the game in Rocket League. Flicks are shots where the player touches the ball through the dodge mechanic while jumping and shoots with it.

Flip Reset- In Rocket League, each car has a double jump, after which the car must touch the ground with its 4 tires to be able to jump again. Due to the game mechanics, it is also possible to perform this on the ball – the so-called flip reset.

ReDirect – if e.g. player A shoots towards player B and the latter then deflects the direction of the ball e.g. towards the goal, this is called a ReDirect.

Wave Dash – One of the most important techniques in Rocket League is the Wave Dash. By a well-timed flip shortly before you touch the ground, you get a speed boost without performing the flip completely. The technique is mainly used when jumping down walls.
