Rocket League: 10 Essential Tips & Tricks You Need To Know
6. Use Your Double Jump For Speed
First discovering the double-jump in Rocket League is an amazing feeling. After a game or so of trying and failing to reach every single high ball in the match you finally realise just how everyone else had been doing it and youll probably promptly start overusing the feature to the point where youre gliding over the ball every single time you go airborne. Although the double jump is effective, sometimes a powerful rocket-propelled double jump isnt the only answer to the ball being right in front of you, as often an attempt at dribbling with light taps to position yourself before the proper strike will provide a better tactical advantage. But its not knowing just what type of jump to use when youre on the ball but also how to use the jump to your advantage when youre on the defensive. If youre out of boost, the double-jump works as a way for you to get around the arena faster than simply driving, and for a game where speed and positioning is essential, the added boost from a double-jump can prove invaluable when youre all out of options.
