- You’re playing the new Rocket League game mode wrong. Fortnite removed building, now Rocket League removed the BALL. Knockout actually blew me away...

Petition to make this mode permanent:

Exactly. This mode can help rocket league from dying
Indeed however no other modes need to go away. All the current modes as much as some hate them they do deserve a place on rocket league.

Definitely signed
Throws are annoying but it’s so funny when someone gets you and winds up throwing themself into the grid!
Better than an own goal!
I've had 3 straight games where the winner won bc of me and another person ended up taking each other out during sudden ko. Some things do need to be fixed but other than that this is a blast of a time.
i am that person who kill’s myself in the grid while throwing 🥲
@@MiguelAngel-zr4pe me too, yet I never learn.
when its a 1v1 and i have 2 lifes and they have 1 i always grab them then dive into spikes or the grid lmao
Yeah if they just simply remove throws and grabs it’d be an amazing battle Royal mode
I've been playing this mode for the past hour and it's really cool, this should be a mode in the "extra modes" playlist
i’ll never know why they make these modes limited time. just keep it in there ffs, playing comp/casual gets boring so quickly these days imo. we need more things like this and they need to stay..
@@kashty024 True
I completely agree
Probably will. Don't think they ever announced a mode this big.
@@kashty024 Ye, they should at least add it for private use. If zu make a lobby with friends
I think this game mode is a perfect hybrid of mechanics and game sense. You have to be able to recover but also read your opponents. It’s so good. Imagine items that you have to claim on the field like rumble power ups. So much potential, I love it
I feel like you almost have to have the game sense of a battle royal player and a rocket league player. It somehow gives the toxic part of the community something equally as annoying as 3rd partying
I flip car well
I love knockout, I hope it can be a permanent mode and maybe even ranked, I think psyonix should make it ranked but have it as a solo que so that no one can easily team with friends
they could make it a team game with shared lives or something. Could be pretty cool and allow people to play with friends.
@@oneindogbeers725 I agree, I think they should have a team knockout, where it’s like a 5v5, and then a solo que gamemode
Says the one with 0 friends 😂😂
If they make it ranked they shouldn't have a "lives" system in a FFA. Have a score: 2 points for getting a knockout, -1 for getting knocked out, -3 for knocking yourself out (otherwise you could deny other players knockouts?). This is how it works in fighting games where hits build up knockback, not entirely sure if it should function the same here, but seems like a better starting point than lives.
Or everyone is just smart and targets the person with most lives left.
queue
"last tip is to avoid the spikes"
That was a good ending
read it as he said that
I thought I was going to hate it when I heard about it and it even looked really boring but after seeing how much they put into this mode yet how simple it is I was hooked playing it for hours without getting bored which is longer than I usually play the base game. It's quite refreshing.
I feel like Psyonix needed to stress more that the mechanics are Rock Paper Scissors, I feel like a lot of people even after a few games don't realize why they're being grabbed or why they're going flying when trying to grab.
Hard agree, but thanks to sunless now we know
While I'm not a fan of LTMs I am happy people are enjoying Knockout. It's always nice to see players enjoying any game or mode.
Why would you not be a fan of more, free content and gameplay variations?!
@@lukasz96 I'm not against it. I just don't like playing them. I prefer plain old RL.
Yh me too ngl I think the game mode is pure trash but I'm glad people enjoy it and gives people a reason to play the game more
@@adamyeo1077 I don't think LMTs are trash. I just play for the "soccar" part of RL because it feels like the most pure version of football(I'm British 😁) in video games to date.
Never thought I’d see the day where there was legit edge guarding in rocket league
Us smash bros players will finally rise to dominate rocket league
Happy wheels -
Wombo Combo
that octane
Here we finally have it Rocket League with no balls
A dream come true
Yoo I'm friends with him and we are both gassed that you replied thanks
Sometimes when I play this game mode I see people just running around the map the whole time, just avoiding everything. I don’t know how they can play like that cause going full speed and ramming people into the horizon and chucking people into the void, purely fragging out is just so damn fun. Maybe not winning every time but getting 1000 pts and 8+ ko’s is more fun to winning with 1 ko and 150 pts.
This mode has been great for working on my air rolls. I feel like a mechanical pro in this mode! Lovin it!
Same bro this helps understanding the physics behind it. Very important for people who dont enjoy mod content or cant access it
@@PhillipAmthor ya… I hope they add it in permanently. It’s the me t best thing to a workshop map.
Same! It helps me with aerial car control as well. This mode must stay
@@PhillipAmthor the physics arent the same as normal rocket league tho, try backflipping to kill your momentum, it wont. it does in normal rocket league for example.
@@Herbsy420 it sometimes does kill ur momentum but not much, and its like snowday (but better) but instead of different ball physics its different car physics
Sunless content goes so crazy, and the new mode from psyonix is wildly good as well 🥵
Today I learned Leth does not put shopping carts back in the parking lot.
They lost out an opportunity on not calling this Rocket Paper Sissors
I'm actually really glad you made this video..
I am completely terrible at Knock Out so this acted as a tutorial video as well as being carried by your sarcastic and entertaining humor.
I hope I only lose 8 out of 10 games now.
Thanks Sunless!!!
One of the best feelings was when I was on 1 stock VS a party of 3 that were all more or less on full. Ended up removing them from the game because I could hit the aerial atttacks once they were off the platform and they kept trying to grab lol
Lol I was in a 2v1 of people who were queued together the other day and we were the final 3. I was annoyed that they were teaming so I camped under one of the bridges and kept grabbing them and throwing them into the ground every time they came after me and ended up clutching the 1v2. You better believe I was spamming what a save
Once I was in a 2v1 but the players kept on attacking over and over again, so I just blocked and they died. I also won 3 matches in a row this morning without using attack
Yeah, except Attack doesn't counter Grab half the time. I can't tell you how many times I lost a match because I hard read an opponents grab with a normal attack, and they still get the grab anyway.
Same grab needs a punishment if you miss or cooldown its to op
Its all about timing, they say grab can be countered but only iff ur timing is correct. I'm a main grab and I get around the counter just by timing my grab when not expected
Mind games are really important in this game mode
The problem is when you use block it cover your whole car where as attack only blocks that angle you attack at.
Its a easy fix just make attack block all angles like block.
1:23
Sunless: “People who use throwing as their main knockout move are the same people who don’t put the shopping cart back in the parking lot.”
Him: *literally throws someone into the grid*
This video explains Knockout perfectly, nice job Sunless! I’m glad I’m not the only one that loves this mode!
Eyy
Now we need a mode where we can race other players!
Fax
Ikr… seems so obvious.
Nah not in rocket league
Have you heard of turbo golf racing?
This user is a genius
I was never going to try out this game mode but you know what, for you Sunless, I will.
one of the best moves is to act like your about to grab but at the verhy last moment you block .
This game mode is all about outthinking the opponent if you throw a bunch people will attack, if you attack a bunch people will block. If you block a bunch say hello to the ground. So this game mode is all about conditioning the other players into thinking you will do something and then doing something else all while reading what the other players are doing. It's so much fun.
Rocket league with no ball? Soon it’s gonna be rocket league with no cars lol
What a shitty joke.
I love how this is a whole new game, it completely flips the formula from rocket league on its head.
Rocket league 2.0???
More like Sarpbc 3.0
It's a fighting game :D
smash bros gonna copyright
@@compszn that’s what I was thinking 🤣
I could literally watch people play this for hours, watching you throw/counter people into oblivion was so funny sometimes!
I often play with friends but don't give a shit and focus on each other early in the game.
When I get queued with guys who team up, I often go early for them next match just so they don't get to play.
THIS GAMEMODE SHOULD 100% BE PERMANENT
Haven’t been able to play this mode yet. Kinda seems like “Rocket League + Super Smash Bros”. Like how u get knocked off the map but have a chance to recover. Seems fun
exactly what i was thinking
Flip cancelling is really important when you are near the wall w/o any boost
I had a guy with 15 grabs win. He had like 10 damage. Now I just look for the grabbers and show them that attack mains are superior. Edge guarding is a lot more satisfying lol.
7:15 "there's no RNG"
The game mode: literally rock, paper, scissors with cars.
well that's not rng (random number generator). That's ootppc (one of three possible player choices).
rng depends on the programming software, ootppc depends upon your choice so it's not really random.
@@Mike_Toreno it also depends on your opponent's choice on which you have no control so you can say that it is random.
@@informalchipmunk5775 not random at all. you can read people's movements and predict the outcome to a degree of success.
@@SpacelandZoo well nothing is completely random, even computer RNG is just a really long string of digits.
Yes you can predict humans very easily but when you are trying to predict a human who knows that you will try to predict him, it becomes significantly harder.
Like a rock paper scissors game, if you note down the number of times you won a "tackle", and the total number of "tackles", their ratio or the empirical probability will come closer and closer to 1:3 the more times you do it. You may try to predict but if you really note down your observations, your predictions will work close to one out of three times which is the expected win ratio anyways.
Thats not what RNG is you Muppet 🤡🤡
Hide on wall
10/10 strategy
this should be permanently in the extra modes or casual playlists. Thiswas so fun
players: this mode is actually really fun and game changing
psyonix: hehe limited time mode
the music used was fire.keep it up. what is the name of the song starting at 6:49 ?
kick me if fild it plz)
This mode is too good to be limited. I wished it was permament, ranked would be even better. I just feel it needs droping power ups that you could catch time to time for more objectives in game.
Yo the amount car control learning is amazing I've watched my friends get so much better after playing knock out for awhile than right back to comp or casual and they are so much better on the field
“I’m a god at this game”
Falls of and dies”
There is a ton of strategy in this, you can perform unblockable attacks in certain situations and get unbelievable aerial recoveries from out of zone. Also has any else felt how akward wave dash chains are in this mode? xD
Yo Sunless, what's the song called that starts at 6:49?
my favorite thing is just completly breaking ankels of the throw mains by just suddenly stoping and watching them fly off into the sunset
hope we get a tournament of this
The whole teaming up ruins it for me IMO, for any casual player that just wants to get some of the rewards which includs "win a game of knockout" you have to get very lucky to be in a solo q only lobby and even then it's hard, but any team lobby is instant gg. Very unfortunate way to ruin a good concept; I guess we want to punish people that have decided to keep playing casually over quitting.
🤔
Not tryna shit talk but what rank are you? If you’re below diamond this kind of makes sense since recoveries are king in this mode and diamonds are not known for their recoveries. I win maybe 1 out of every 4 games solo queuing and most games I lost isn’t to teams but a dude w a season 5 ssl tournament winner banner.
@@TheAwesomeGamer222 C3 - Grand champion & I even managed to complete my rewards again last season even tho I barely play. Casual players = people that play once or twice per week. The mechanics of this gamemode aren't described clearly in-game and it's currently a busy period for most uni students so I find it stupid to run into teams 3 out of the 5 games that I'm trying to win knowing I'll have to spend more time than I want to get some wheels I'd like to have.
I can definitely make time & easily grind these rewards, but the point is that I'm a casual player by decision and being limited by random 3 stacks teaming up totally ruins my experience. I'd grind this stuff and maybe even the game itself over summer, but right now is just bad timing.
Worst part is that i mainly play unranked since I'm a casual player so my unranked MMR is decent enough (1800-ish) to run into people with at least basic mechanics and gamesense so chances of winning are lowered as well.
@@tycodj Thankfully I don't think unranked MMR matters for this mode.
@@tycodj you said something that we can both 100%. Rocket league did a dog shit job explaining the mechanics of this game. Had to literally google it before I could figure it out and even then didn’t realize you technically have 6 jumps until way later. I can see why running into teams is annoying but you have to realize this is only a limited time mode so its more like a “test” mode than anything. If they do end up adding it as a permanent mode they def can’t do teams but for limited only I don’t really mind it. Btw If you play on Xbox I’ll trade ya the wheels lol don’t really care for the rewards, play more for the mode itself
Yes, this mode could be really fun and refreshing. No, it isnt because apparently everyone on Europe is an absolute sweat and a GC in the new mode like 1h after it came out, which completely ruins it for casual players who want to try it out. Oh and then theres the fact that I still dont know how to grab because Psyonix is too fucking dumb to display a keyboard button instead of controller. Great job.
I play on pc with an controller and i can see controller buttons. Its not even an original xbox controller yet it still works.
However change the grab button to accelerate and the break stun to boost and this game mode is easier.
You will maybe notice that at the beginning attack is the most favorable. Mid game its grab. End game its attack and block because of the insta kill zone.
Try to use air rolls and jumps before you use all your boost because without boost you die easier above the canyon.
Try using rolls instead of boost while accelerating from far away because your rolls reset instantly when you touch the ground.
Use lshift to grab someone or scroll down completely in controls tab
skill issue
one of my favorite things to do is you jump, flip towards someone, keep flipping, they stay still for some reason, and you get a heavy attack ko. they just dont know what to do
This is a game mode for the man himself - “Woody”
Honestly, if rocket league wasn’t a car soccer game and was just this, I would play it and not rage everytime I lose
Thank you sunless for making a video describing how to actually play the game using the counters. Until this vid, I had no idea that attack countered the grab. Psyonix didn’t put any list of moves in the game so I had no idea which moves I should use in the game
The holy rule of extra modes is:
Dropshot>rumble>knockout>snowfree>rocketlabs>hoops>yeetseeker
Was in a party with randoms after a game and they tried teaming up the next game. I agreed and then whacked them both repeatedly followed by them swearing at me for 3 minutes straight. Almost died of laughter
The fact that people like this game mode, is perplexing. To each their own I suppose
Must be fun at parties
And the great thing is, you don't have to rely on random teammates!
This is the only gamemode i play rn, My favorite thing is if someone gets yeeted far away to follow them out and end them for good mid air, you can actually fly like a huge way out and still recover back after ending their careers lol
fun fact: attacks aren't a hard counter to grabs. you can get grabbeed while attacking from a different angle, and light attacks and grabs just cancel out.
Actually only the same attacks can cancel out. Attack beats grab, grab beats shield, shield beats attack so essentially rock, paper, scissors
@@ireactiionzi184 i've tested this and light attack and grab cancel out. i have been stunned while using a light attack when someone grabs
until the sudden KO all u gotta do is use throw. If you aren't dookie at recovering you can always make it back. Just stay away from the death spikes and you'll never lose. Or you could just avoid everyone the entire game and have 3 lives at the end
Me and my friends have terrible car control but because of all the boost and flips, it's still very possible to win games if your smart. I love this mode. Only thing that's annoying is the way lock on never works like it should.
sunless "You guys know what we do to throwers."
Me: You put the shopping cart back
Classic Sunless 1 liner to end the video, and then I lost my next 8 ranked games.
Great video!
I'm loving knockout also! I wish they'd give us multiflag CTF, or another objective type game mode with the new map approach. These new mechanics in soccar or hoops would be crazy! Imagine where there is an out of bounds for players but a containing boundary for the ball to keep it in play. you can grab the ball for a few seconds but you are vulnerable to attacks. Lots of potential
4:00 "but he died" - my condolences on your passing away
sunless: strategy is good! sound familiar?
everyone: no
I really love the fighting mechanics, some kind of team involvement with this game modes mechanics could be really cool
My mates: "I was starting to see the appeal of throwing!"
Ngl knockout bash really makes me have a good time and not frustrated because I don’t have to deal with the ball anymore😂
Fun little tricks to keep on mind for being actually meta.
Stationary (or slow) attacks combo into grabs or a faster attack
You can't grab after a throw release BUT you CAN attack after a "weak" throw. Throwing slowly into a heavy is an actual 50-50 .
If you wish to edge guard, do NOT forget that jump does let you grab and spinning into a side flip has some decent power for quick "oh shit" mix.
Reminder but again, being behind someone means they CAN'T attack you nor grab you, they'd have to turn but they can block you. Grab the saiyen's tail or slap his face is good rule of thumb.
Extra tip: want to kill someone hiding on a wall? Fly by and grab them with an angled double jump into a side flick, bam, fuck you camper.
I'm supposed to be Plat 2 in 3's but because it was the first competitive playlist, I did it as soon as I got Rocket League
people used to counter my throws straight down until i just boosted straight down with them and threw so there’s literally nothing u can do it’s basically an instant KO then just turn around and fly back up before dying with them
These videos makes our days better
This mode is so fun. Whoever decided to make it an LTM deserves to be in jail.
Especially with how gaming is now, new content is everything when it comes to multiplayer games, limited time modes just doesn't make sense to me.
I have won a few rounds, but definitely learned that attacks block the grabs!
This was like a hilarious tutorial. Love it!
Edge guarding, multiple jumps, attack-dodge-throw. This is the Smash mode of Rocket League!
finally a youtuber who is good at this mode and not cringe
I played this mode for all of 30 seconds. Had a guy just throw me directly into the grid twice and that was enough for me.
When this first came out, it only took hours until my buddy and I were spiking people down into the Oblivion. Fun as fuck game.
You know people will bind a mouse wheel to the recovery but and fling it for lightning fast recoveries like they have with wall dashes
Damn Sunless, killer content bro 🤙🏼
You made me even more hiped about knock-out! And that makes me even wanna go from vacation and play.
him: throws someone the wrong way
the throw: die
him: wOaH
Love how Epic can deliver literally hundreds of player made game modes for Fortnite but anytime we get any kind of fun extra mode it's an LTM.
One of the main differences is that RL is on unreal engine 3 and they are also working on rebuilding the whole game but yeah getting more game modes like this PROPERLY added would be awesome
Sunless’ video formats are so good they are always entertaining and easy to understand he’s just talented in general at making videos
Sick vid as always Sunless!!
It's like rocket league smash bros. Might have to hop on and give this a try.
I tried this out yesterday, all I can describe it as is: Pain
The grab is so op when you have low ping, they always said it wasn’t pay 2 win but look at it now.
"In a way, Psyonix has added Rocket League Battle Royale..."
Close. What they've added is Rocket League Smash Bros.
Sunless is like a God at this mode
The throwing part and the video 😹😹😹😹
this mode has some real potential to become an extra playlist permanent ranked mode with some tweaks, finally something new and fresh in rocket league, seems like forever since we got something new, hopefully they decide to make this permanent, really enjoyed my time with this mode so far.
now we just need a ranked mode for this, imagine SX Knockout Grand Champion
Now that demo guy in every match would be proud to be good at something
Sunless predicted rocket league with no balls
If they blended rumble into this and make it more like Battle Royale with a shrinking zone, going from huge to small island, I might try it.
There is a shrinking zone already though
4:11 I’m dead bro 💀😂
Every time I try to throw someone into the abyss, (or spikes), I seem to lose momentum and just lightly toss them back into the arena. :D I really need to work on that
The problem with this mode is if you have better ping then your attack counters the opponent's block. I only get about 35-40 ping, but the mode is unplayable because the people who only have 20-25 ping always get their attacks through any block.
Sunless. Straight up spittin'
Holy cow this looks addicting. And I’m behind on making a video about it! I can’t wait to try it out.
I keep imagining a fading Link scream as the cars fade into the background. This gives me Smash Bros vibes and I like it! xD
