Rocket League Bumperball is a great mode and map made by a creator in the community. It's based on Australian Football League, or AFL, and is a whole lot of fun. What is Rocket League Bumperball? Why should you play Rocket League Bumperball? Well, I'm here to tell you exactly what Rocket League Bumperball is, and why you should play it.
Yes, yes, yes. We know. Rocket League Season 4 just launched, and we are talking about... this? Why? What on earth? Well: there are two reasons. The first is that I am Australian and I've got to flex my Aussie-muscles (they're non-existent). The Second is that this mode is insanely fun, and you should definitely play it. Oh, hang on – there's a third! Rocket League Seasons are pretty minimal, let's be real. So... there's not much to write about there. Instead, what is Rocket League Bumperball? I'm here to tell you...
Okay, yes, Rocket League Bumperball is an Australian mode. Okay, yes, EarlyGame's Rocket League Best & Worst has been cancelled. That doesn't mean we can't have fun, though, does it? Well, here's something else a little Australian, and some other modes you should check out...

What is Rocket League Bumperball?
Rocket League Bumperball is a map and mode made by a guy called Yoshilus, based on the popular Australian sport, Australian Football League. AFL, as us Aussies would say, is one of the national sports of Australia, a whole lot of fun, and nowhere near as brutal or boring as Rugby. Fight me. Anyway, it's a really cool map and a really well designed game mode that takes Rocket League to new heights. Yes, I am going to stand by that. Yes, I am being a bit obnoxiously patriotic. You know what? I don't care. Just watch the bloody vid...
How Does Rocket League Bumperball Work?
In Rocket League Bumperball, the map is in an oval shape and there are three goals at each end, one tall one in the middle, surrounded by two shorter ones. The center goal will score you a whopping six points, whilst the other two will score you a single point, but will mean that the opposite team automatically gets possession of the ball in the next kickoff. Thus, you really want to get it into that middle goal, so that you don't give your opponents the advantage! You can play it with a standard soccer ball, as you would normally in Rocket League, or you can play it with an American-style egg-shaped Football, like we do in Australia.
The rules of this mode are very loosely based on the way that AFL works in Australia, but it doesn't matter that it's a loose interpretation. Rocket League Bumperball is just a crazy fun way to play everyone's favorite car-football game, and to be real? Rocket League is all about fun, isn't it? Yes. It is. So enjoy it. Play it. Eat a pizza.
