What is Rocket League's 3v3 Dropshot Rumble LTM?

3v3 Dropshot Rumble is a combination of both Rocket League's Dropshot and Rumble modes. More or less, Dropshot Rumble tasks players with breaking hexagonal floor panels (instead of scoring goals) whilst using the power-ups that come with the standard Rumble mode. Once you have destroyed the floor panels, you need to score goals between the gaps in your opponent's floor.

There are three ball phases in Dropshot Rumble. Each ball phase increases the damage that the ball will cause when it smashes floor panels. In addition, the second and third phases are activated after player's Battle-Cars collide multiple times. The ball also gets more powerful the longer it stays off the ground. Rocket League's 3v3 Dropshot Rumble LTM is pretty fantastic, because you can combine this awesome new way of playing Rocket League, with the cool power-ups from Rumble.

What Power-ups are in Rocket League's 3v3 Dropshot Rumble LTM?

  • The Boot (Kick an opponent’s car)
  • Disruptor (Opponent gets constant boost)
  • Freezer (Freeze the ball)
  • Grappling Hook (Pulls you toward the ball)
  • Haymaker (Punches the ball)
  • Magnetizer (Attracts the ball to your car)
  • Plunger (Grabs the ball with a plunger and cord)
  • Power Hitter (Allows you to hit everything harder and demolish opponents on contact)
  • Spike (Attach the ball to your car when you bump into it)
  • Swapper (Changes positions on the field with your opponent)
  • Tornado (Sweep up the ball and opposing cars into a giant funnel cloud)
