Rocket League Community Spotlight: Everybody Jump!

Community Spotlight: Everybody Jump! Posted: 04 Sep 2018 07:16 PM PDT After the 'Ceiling Shuffle' showcase in last month's Community Spotlight[www.rocketleague.com], we sent out an open invitation to all of you to share any new mechanics you might have tucked up your sleeve. To our surprise, it only took a few weeks before another new discovery was trending in community videos and Custom Training packs -- the 'Hel-Jump!' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1KxjeQT5As It really is incredible that we are still witnessing newly-discovered mechanics three years after Rocket League's release. In the above video, Redditor u/HelvetiaGaming[redd.it] shows us that precise positioning and timing allows you to fly away while maintaining a second indefinite jump, much like when performing a ceiling shot. Though the now-dubbed 'Hel-Jump' is an interesting trick, it demands exact timing and a lot of boost. With all that being said, what are the pros and cons to using the 'Hel-Jump?' The 'Hel-Jump' is a versatile ability that can be used off of the ground, the walls[streamable.com], or even the ceiling, and if you don't execute it correctly, you can recover by wavedashing[gfycat.com] instead of flying away. More importantly, though, is that a successful 'Hel-Jump' gives you a flip reset so there's no timer on your next aerial dodge; which brings us to the cons: this is a very boost-hungry mechanic that punishes hard if you do not perform it correctly. Outside of freestyling, the opportunities to perform a 'Hel-Jump' may not present themselves often either, because of how long it takes to gain altitude. Custom Training Let's face it: your teammates don't want you to practice every new technique you come across in the middle of a Competitive match -- but you've got to practice somewhere, right? This month's refreshed list of Custom Training packs offers a few effective ways to try out the brand new 'Hel-Jump' technique with two dedicated training packs. You can practice on the ground, off of the wall, or even from the ceiling! But don't worry if you're struggling to get a hang of this one; take a break and spend some time nailing sick aerial goals with the rest of the packs that we have to offer in the Featured Tab's newest lineup. # Author Name Difficulty Code 1 Penguin Heljump Training Champion 196F-186A-7898-00D8 2 Eric Heljump Practice Diamond CFF8-2949-F2D9-C9C8 3 Poquito Clears - Backboard Reads Diamond 85B9-2469-C941-1176 4 Juju Retreating Saves Diamond 7D8F-A579-6A47-4DFA 5 FLuuMP Air Roll Shots Silver A4D6-1260-C51D-4375 6 Torment Aerial Roof Reads Grand Champion E335-9A2E-0AAB-DDCE 7 Wayprotein Striker Instinct Champion AE53-497A-804E-AD39 8 C0M0D0 Lil' Bit of Everything Platinum 7287-9448-5384-D4CF 9 Moldy Bread Redirects & Backboards Diamond 7D8F-A579-6A47-4DFA Head back to last month's Community Spotlight[www.rocketleague.com] for more featured Custom Training and information on how to Ceiling Shuffle!
