The image above notes the six locations with big boost pads with red arrows and the two blue arrows highlight two of the many small boost pads around the field. The small boost pads are scattered all over the place. There are six big boost pads around the edges of the field arranged in a similar manner to the pockets of a billiards table. Small boost pads increase the car’s boost amount by 12. The big pads completely refill a car’s boost storage to 100. There are two kinds of boost pads, big and small ones, that are collected when a player drives their car over it and then do not function for a set amount of time. It also enables players to move around the field more quickly for offensive and defensive purposes. It is very important because it allows players to choose from a wide variety of mechanics to accelerate the ball that are otherwise impossible. As a result, there is not a significant difference in the average number of demos in North America versus Europe with the aforementioned assumptions in mind.īoost is the only resource in Rocket League that can be found around the field. A t-test between the average number of demos inflicted for both regions yields a p-value of. However, it is possible that although there is no difference within each region, there could be a noteworthy difference between North America and Europe. 50, implying that there is no significant difference between the average number of demos for the winning and losing sides. But the resulting p-values are both larger than. Within each region, the difference between the mean demos inflicted by winning and losing teams can be compared. Using the assumption that this data represents a somewhat random sample of recent professional Rocket League games, and that the large sample size takes care of the data being discrete, rather than continuous, a two-sample two-sided t-test can be carried out with an alpha value of. The data is right-skewed for both regions, but with more than 150 games from each region, the histograms have some degree of normality. Because so few games are played between these two regions, characteristics that make teams successful could differ between the two places. As a result, since the game was released, the top RLCS tournament with teams from North America (NA) and Europe (EU) has occurred eight times, with five wins to Europe and three to NA. Moreover, playing online across regions inherently disadvantages one team because of their poor connection to the server hosting the game. However, due to COVID-19, all tournaments are isolated to individual regions because travel is impractical. Since Psyonix was purchased by Epic Games, its access to more significant resources has allowed it to host more frequent professional tournaments. The company Psyonix that developed the game was not as big as many other popular esports companies. One aspect of Rocket League that limited its exposure for many years was its lack of large-scale tournaments. The professional gameplay from the Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) Season 10 looks like a different game from that of Season 1. However, the gameplay mechanics are incredibly nuanced and have evolved enormously since the game’s release in July of 2015. Its simple core-concept of cars playing 3-on-3 soccer lends itself to being an approachable esport for people that have never heard of the game. It was even one of two games selected to be featured in a tournament (now likely canceled due to COVID-19) hosted before the Tokyo Olympics with a prize of $250,000. Rocket League is an esports game that has been rapidly gaining popularity recently after becoming a free-to-play game on the Epic Games Store.
