When I first considered this video idea about New Rocket League mechanics in 2023, I didn't think there would actually be enough to talk about to make a full video about it. But after researching for multiple days, there were surprisingly a lot of new mechanics this year. When this game first released, I never thought we would still be talking about new mechanics 8 years later. We're still finding variations of new flicks, new flip resets, new wave dashes, and so much more. As long as new Rocket League mechanics keep getting discovered, I will keep making these videos because it is truly fascinating seeing what the Rocket League community continues to discover each year.

:)
i invented a new mechanic: the pizza flick. basically u just have to completely miss the ball and hope they own goal instead of scoring the open net. works 0.0001% of the time so i'd say it's pretty good
definitely gonna use that (I’m champ2)
I have accidentally done this trick many times in free play which shows its consistency
fr its so easy to pull off but so effective@@999Remi
Where does the pizza name came from
this works really well in champ 1 in 2's and any 3's game cause like 3's is a mistake now with the whole 1v5 thing
I like the fact that a lot of these new tricks aren't all too crazy or elaborative to stick out brand new but just end up being simple and intuitive
As a casual diamond player seeing new ground mechanics, let's fucking goooo
Can confirm I've done the AmaLix Jump quite a few times in game since I made that Reddit post. I'm saving the clips for my upcoming tutorial though :) Also, the 1 in 3 success rate is kind of misleading, as failing the mechanic usually just leads to a normal air dribble setup, making it not very high risk to go for. Also props for highlighting the Luther Flick! Definitely an underrated mechanic.
Ooo sick!! I’ll be looking forward to that tutorial!
Hey man we had a chat in your original video's comments a couple weeks ago. Since then I can get the amalix jump every 90 seconds or so in freeplay, and managed to get the jump down (but no shot) in a match as well. Dedicating a lot of time to learning it (at least 30 minutes a day) but god damn is it hard, the 2nd jump timing is so brain numbing lol. Am waiting for your next tutorial - have my notifs on for you lol
@@Punda_RLpunda is goated at rl as well??
@@WaytonPilkinonly harassing you because I know you are not going to want to miss out on the new mech I made. I want you to be the first to see it
@@elixbuilt7929just post it bro lmfao… if it’s consistent/realistic to use in game then it will pop
Honestly the Suffo flick looks incredibly stylish and effective if you have space, would be cool to learn it
someone show this to evample
I v done it once before by acsident it was rly lucky
its very similar to the breezi flick in terms of its weaknesses and strengths, requires lots of space but deadly when done right
@@shkr_rl The Breezi is easy to aim when consistent and one of the fastest flicks. I don't think this can go as fast because of the angle you're hitting the car at. Also, if you get intercepted in the middle of doing a Breezi, you're behind the ball so you just get a 50 upwards. If you get intercepted during this they will just hit it straight over you. I don't know why anyone would pick this outside of either freestyling or as a way to bait someone because they didn't know it was possible to get back to the ball (which after 1 goal they will learn).
you don’t need to brazil someone off of this alone, just one goal to sauce on them if you get the chance is enough
The instant joy I got seeing the Jerry Reset on here
hi
the Jung flick could have been a good one aswell (from Thanovic's vid). Actually viable in game and generates power
The 7th and final mechanic of 2023: The No-Trade
I've been practicing this mechanic a lot, I think I will have it fully consistent within 3 weeks
L,😮
I have only made one trade in my entire time playing RL, but it still pisses me off that they removed it... It does absolutely nothing to improve the experience for anyone playing the game, and was strictly so more people would buy from the shop... I have bought cosmetics before from RL, but I have no intentions of ever buying one again because they removed trading purely to be greedy... And they removed dropshot, fuck epic, they can all taste my sweaty testicles...
Jajjja😂
I did not expect to be mentioned here lol great video as always 👍 ( 4:08 I’d like to clarify that I can do the double zap dash consistently off a wall, but not from simply jumping off the ground. I’ve tried it off the ground tons of times and I haven’t been able to do it at all.)
Do you feel like it's significantly faster than a single zap dash?
I should try more from off the wall. Props to you for finding it!
Are you forward wave dashing when single jumping off the ground? You don't need to. Its just an empty jump timed right.
@@iamallanevans and empty jump wouldn't give you any speed...?
@blurryface9910 Hmm, you'll have to excuse me, I haven't done these since 2020ish. I will have to go back and see how I was doing them and hit free play to jog my memory. If I remember correctly, it's just a rhythmic swivel and an empty jump. I very well could be confusing and combining a couple of them that I was working on. Haha, this should be fun.
The fact new mechanics are still being found amazes me
I think the Purple Shot is something along the lines of a "Point-Blank Psycho", because the pop/power comes from the force the ball gets from bouncing off your car after the reset and leaning forward to make sure the ball pops into your front wheels, similar to redirects. I know if I get the pop from a Flip Reset when I don't cushion the ball enough, it could go flying, so maybe its making lemonade from lemons, using that uncontrollable pop into a shot.
I feel like the Luther flick could be used like a kuxir pinch. Rlly cool
It’s been used like that
It's harder than it looks
@@SalSickmanGamingit’s not 😂. Literally just tilt your car and musty 😂
@@prokodzaif you dont know how to musty it is 😅
@@turtleturt3261Replace 'musty' with 'backflip' 👍
9:00 you have to press the reverse before the flick, so your car stays in air while the ball gains the momentum from the wheels in reverse
3:57 i actually started implementing that new method about 7 months ago, but I never took the time to improve it as you did. great vid 👍
Amazing video man, I discovered mechanic number 4 waaay back in season 2 I kept doing it for fun and I didn't think to do it in vs people because I thought its gonna be easy to defend that but now seeing it again it brings back the memory so I'm definitelly gonna give it a try again :D thanks so much man I know its new mechanic but for me its OG stuff :D idk how to explain but thanks for the memory!
Love your videos bro. Keep it up!
Another amazing Video Wayton! Keep up the good work!
Letsgooo love this series every year
I remember watching the video on the Suffo flick when it had like 50 views and it was insane. Glad to see it be shown more.
Like you said, the fact their still people coming up with new stuff keeps this game so exciting. The potential is limitless
Yay new vid from wayton i was waiting!
i watched one of your older vids, youve grown so much both as a content creator and irl
Wayton the Goat I am going to try to get some of these consistent, but thanks for being able to showcase these or else I probably would of never found them. 🙏🙏🙏
Great video, Wayton. Kudos to your professionalism and passion.
I wish I came up with one of these. Like this is insane🔥💯
Great video, mind blowing stuff. Can't Wait to see these in RLCS. you know it'll happen after everyone used to say flip resets "aren't that competitive." Lol
the vid ive been waiting all year for
I agree with your last point that the important part of a mech is if you can replicate it. I've personally done something very similar to some of these by accident but will always just write it off as a failure unless I am trying to do it and can replicate it.
Great video! Now a suggestion: it would be cool to include your controller overlay.
I swear i feel like I’m ranking up just by watching you keep it up
3:10 once again this is known in the plat league already. It is called TRD or "Thirst Rush Dash" as it was discovered originally by an unknown player in Plat (common to not know the player of origin from plat league) who felt it was necessary to hit the ball prior to their teammate at every opportunity. The move was performed without prior knowledge of the speed benefits of TRD and was only later discovered when a PPLP (Pro Plat League Player) was studying film on how to better beat teammates to the ball regardless the positioning.
Can’t wait
Really cool video. Thanks for the info.
for the first mechanic, you should have tried a rolling ground musty to compare it to. they are very fast as well
I think the speed just off the touch will be similar but the set up time between the two would make the first mechanic better
@@nightwarrior5568 yeah fair take i just thought it would be the best comparison since i think they're so similiar
Seems like rolling musty is to a musty as a luther flick is to a 45 flick. The luther flick is probably a bit slower speed on the ball but faster to setup.
I remember a couple years ago I hit a double reset where you wavedash onto the ball after getting your first flip. I think it could be useful if done consistently although the times I've gotten it my car goes plummeting into the floor unless I flip immediately. Often times that just causes a miss anyways. I have a clip of me hitting a nice one in freeplay though.
New Wayton video let’s goooooo!
good list. the luther flick was being done consistently in like 2018.
Been doing the 'double zap dash' for about a year. I think its just the car cancelling out the first wave dash so the 2nd becomes easier. Very useful in game but hard to get consistent at it
9:00 I certainly couldn’t do it but I did notice that wayton’s front wheels were farther back than in the clip just by a little bit. So that made me think that with the hitbox of the octain when you jump like that you slightly pinch the ball between your wheels. Though l’m just a diamond and that was just what I noticed.
Your videos are great!
Mechanic 2: I have practicing a little bit and I’ve found that the middle step doesn’t even need to be there. If you do it right, the front of the car naturally pops up from the first wave dash and you can immediately wave dash again. not sure how good or consistent it is compared to what’s shown in the video but it’s there. it’s a thing
Two of these look actually useful. Nice!
Very good video! Thank you for the mention!
Love the stuffo and the purple shot! Very cool, hope to see em standard in pro play in a couple years time!
9:25 I saw that "reset dash" (is what I called it) before that clip was made in a Striped vid when someone tried to do a triple reset, barely manage to set ONE up and "reset dashed" to get 3 resets.
Great video sir Pilkin
YESSSS NEW WAYTON UPLOAD MY DAY IS SAVED
Ooh can't wait to find out what new things I can use to hit the post/crossbar and get scored on
bro the purple shot got me as hyped as i was when i first found out about mechanics like the air dribble when i was gold
yeeeeaaaaaaa, finaly a new video, and its a good and interesting one
I love your content❤
LETS GO WAYTON POSTEDDDDD 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I think the Purple Shot will work when you go for a flip reset those that when contact happens it looks like the ball gets snugged against the car. Like you can really see how the snugg/hug happens. A brief magnet moment... thats where we tap jump to launch the ball. IMO
Waytons videos make my day
I've done 4 mechanics from this video. I have over 3000h and play this game CASUALLY (not tryharding to learn mechanics) and I've done it multiple times "just by that" somehow not knowing about these mechanics and the rarity of them. Mechanic 5 is my favourite. When you are a bad player from Diamond 3 and you wanna do flip reset and ur bad, sometimes you hit the ball with that power. There are way more mechanics which can be used in game, but we people in fact don't know them and even if we do them by random, on 99,99% cases we don't notice it.
Sick video! I can't wait to never be able to do any of this.
I feel motivated to hop in freeplay and try some of these out. ty
I was starting to get worried because Wayton hadn't posted for ages and he was one of my top favourite youtubers. So, thank you so much for posting another video Wayton ❤
less go wayton with a vid
Greats video Way
The first one is just a floor pinch from a different angle. I came up with this concept years ago but forgot about and I never practice. It comes from snow day as you can pinch the Puck using this or even a forward dodge to implement it.
thanks for a banger video
ive done the leo one accidentally twice, once when i was first learning resets(broke my mind) and once a couple months ago as i was trying to learn double resets
I have a bunch of clips saved of a mechanic that i wanna turn into a video. Basically, on the ground approaching a 50/50, you jump, turn your nose left or right, and put your wheels toward the ball, then you do a backflip. Sometimes i get a flip reset, which I'm not sure how to capitalize. Sometimes i whiff. Many times i get a surprising hit past my opponent. I think it has potential, and I've never seen it in the wild.
I hit a Jerry Reset two days before watching this video and had absolutely no idea what happen or how I got so much power. I clipped it and watched it 100 times to see what I did or what happen. The best way I can describe it was I went off the ceiling and went under the ball to scoop it in but when I did my flick I went into a reset on the ball so I immediately flip canceled the second reset on impact with the ball and it went zooming straight into the net. I 100% doubt I could ever do it again intentionally but was baffled as to what I did until seeing this. Now I can sleep peacefully at night know this was an already discovered mechanic. ❤
that suffo flick would be useful asf to learn, not just for the shots you can get, but it will 100% help w/ awkward recoveries
Lets GOO WAYTONNNN
Lets goo he uploaded
Ngl, this is the first time in my life I've seen another Luther openly acknowledged, awesome to see them bring GLORY to the name.
Amalix and purple shot seem like the two that could be the most deadly if the consistency really gets dialled in. Didn't play much from early-mid 2023 onwards, so it's always cool to see people discovering new mechanics in this game.
Glad my man Suffo is getting some recognition ive been following him for a while and hoping somebody shows him
Sick vid
for mechanic 5 i accidentally hit it once in a rankes game back in season five i lost the clip since i changed consoles and shit but it was pop the ball up -> get a reset while aiming the front of my car up -> it gets sent to the wall and bounces off to me and i flip and hit it in
8:55 thx clip for video
Out of all these the suffo flick is def my favorite
hey I'm in diamond and and there is a kickoff that idk if people have used but i was wondering if i could show it to you
I actually did two of these mechanics by accident and finally someone talks about the suffo flick
Cool seeing the suffo flick getting some love
I've seen firstkiller do the lutherflick in 1s during salt mine.
The suffo flick looks soooo nice. Also I’m rooting for Jerry. Let’s make Jerry resets real
@Wayton Pilkin I actually just tried the purple shot and with in the first minute of trying i scored two purple shot double taps and a really powerful that went above crossbar.
last clip was crazy. THE WAYTON FLICK????? xd
Ive done the jerry reset before it came out on purpose but its cool someone found it
I have a reset that I can do sometimes (if I'm trying to go for it), and I have seen it here and there, where you can basically jump off the ball, and still have a reset forever. Problem is that it's generally useless cause I'm too far away from the ball afterwards, like when hitting a first reset and slapping the ball away.
The first mechanic from Arabian guy and thanks wayton to make a good content
As someone who worked on Gamers8 this year, next year is going to be incredible.
I stopped playing RL a couple months ago but I still watch your videos because of how entertaining they are :)
why
That first one on the list… I actually love how easy and useful this is.
The suffo flick is so satisfying to watch
So wayton i recently figured out you can jump off the ball after a flip reset and still have a flip definitely could be used competitively
The "Purple shot" i have done it a couple of times in game even a few months ago but did not even think anything of it
i love these peeks into the wild world of the RL Lab
I made like a reddit post and yt tutorial a year or 2 ago about how to easily and way faster get into the 2 wheel drift
Wave dashing everywhere has helped me a ton and somehow i see any of these and get completly lost, Nice.
On mechanic 2, I feel like I remember seeing something like this but instead of doing the second dash they would boost and it would let them fly without using their jump on the ground.
Bro what ive used the luther flick so much before may
so glad i can see rocket league getting back up there.
I did the purple shot in training once I thought it was just lag 😅 good to know I did something cool for once
6:28 I figured it out because I play on a keyboard and mouse and it had no deadzones. Someone then stole my shot and posted a clip on redit.
Imagine mastering Jerry reset and purple shot altogether💀
Dude, 1:14 watching, I love you man, I have to learn that one!
6:34 - they did it by accident and figured out what happened LOL
These are really neat
