Tonight was my first Season 3 Rocket League Platinum Tournament win. With only a couple weeks left of this Season I didn't think I would get my season 3 tournament winner title. Now that's done, I am relieved and can focus on training for Diamond rank next season! I am so close, I can feel it.
Competing in tournaments awards you with Tournament Credits that are used to unlock tournament exclusive items and a player title if you are skilled enough to get first place. My plan this season has been opening Prospect Cups only. Prospect Cups cost 1200 Tournament Credits and gives mostly Uncommon and Rare quality items but anything is possible. The next step up is the Challengers Cup which costs 4000 credits and gives mostly Uncommon Rare and Very Rare items with occasional Imports or better. The reason I've been trying Prospect Cup over and over is the fact that I am not very active this season in tournaments. If I spent 4000 on 1 Uncommon item, I would be pretty salty. Atleast with Prospect Cup, anything above an Uncommon is great.
Rankings in Rocket League tournaments are like regular ranked play except it isn't split into 3 sub divisions. (E.x. Gold rank considers players from Gold 1-3) Getting first place a couple of times in a row has made me go up ranks in tournaments and the reverse has happend losing the first match a few times in a row.
There are 8 different ranks:
This season is roughly 4 months. It started April 7th and goes until August 11th. I keep jumping back and forth between Gold and Platinum but my goal next season is Diamond. Season 1 I was Silver/Gold, season 2 I was Gold consistently and barely Platinum. Season 3 I am consistently Platinum and barely Gold.
After this tournament win I have 13300 credits. Not sure how many I had before I started it. I think a couple of hundred? That means I can open 11 prospect cups.
6 Uncommon, 3 Rares, and 2 Very Rare. I'm not mad that's pretty decent. I really like the Moon Antenna and enjoy collecting Player Anthems.
I am looking to do a Rocket League giveaway but I'm not sure if there is a community here! If you play Rocket League on Playstation leave a comment below telling me. I can only accommodate Playsation players because that is the only system I have an account on. Again, PLAYSATION PLAYERS, LET ME KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY ON HERE!
Thanks for taking the time to read this. Drop me a comment if you play Rocket League down below. I've been playing every day since the launch of free to play in September of last year. I went from Silver 1 to Plat 3 in that time and have logged about 12 days worth of in game matches. ( That's 288 hours! ) If you haven't played Rocket League yet, it is available on all major gaming platforms besides Mobile. It's free to play, so, what are you waiting for?
