There are a lot of good items in Rocket League. Unfortunately, a lot of items don’t get a lot of credit because they are out shined by other items like them. People have hyped, an occasionally over hyped items, like the White Octane. The White Octane ultimately robs almost all of the car body love in the game. People are all too focused on getting one, and in reality there are plenty of other cars that deserve just as much love, but don’t get it. That is what we are looking for today: Under priced and under appreciated items that deserve more love than they are getting. Our advice would be to try and get these while they are still cheap now, because you never know when people might see their true value.
Jager 619 (Body)
The Jager is a stunning car. It has lines a curves that actually look very similar to modern day sports cars. Out of all the cars in Rocket League, visually this one is the best. No car comes close to the looks that the Jager brings. As far as hotbox goes, the Jager is just mediocre. It is long, like the Dominus, but lacks its box-like shape. Its awkward curves allow for unpredictable shots, and inconsistent touches. Obviously it isn’t the first choice for a competitive hitbox, but it is far from the worst. I would give it a B- for its hitbox.
The Jager gets overlooked. The Fennec and Octane are the two main culprits to blame. Everyone and their mother wants a Titanium White Octane. It has become the holy grail for rocket league items. And at around 16k credits, it comes at a hefty price. The Octane robs most of the attention, but the Fennec is what finishes the segment off. Anyone who is smart enough to realize the Octane is overpriced then shoots for the Fennec. This deadly combination leaves almost no room for the Jager, which at 600 credits is certainly a steal.
Hypnotik (Wheel)
Zombas. Ever heard of them? They drain the life out of Rocket League wheel value. Like the Octane, everyone wants a pair of Zombas. In my opinion, they don’t even really look that great, but never mind my opinion. The wheel segment also has the same 1-2 punch issue the car body has. Everyone who is smart enough to realize Zombas aren’t that great go for the Dracos, which in my opinion should be the most expensive wheels in-game. However, this isn’t about the best wheels, but the most underrated. And my choice is the Hypnotik wheels.
The Hypnotiks look great. They make a cool, spiral optical illusion. They are a new favorite of mine, and obviously Titanium white is the color you want them in. They match with literally every color and are simply polarizing. Wheels have no effect on how you play Rocket League, and are just for style.
Wet Paint (Decal)
One of my favorite decals also happens to be one of the cheapest in the game. If I wasn’t such a big fan of the Mainframe, I would for sure be rocking the Wet Paint. It is a pretty flawless design and looks good on every car you put it on. It also can be manipulated to look like the Mainframe, if you alter some paint colors. It has the cool dripping effect on the front of the car that has become iconic. Like I said earlier, it can be manipulated to look like the mainframe, which offers a cool look for a lot less credits. This is easily the most overlooked decal, as almost all the other black markets go for 1-1.2k. The Wet Paint costs just 500 credits, and mimics my 1.6k mainframe!
Titanium White Standard (Boost)
The boost section is a pretty small market, but everyone targets alpha boosts. Well, if you are a but more logical, any of the painted standard boosts look sick as well, and cost far less. There isn’t a lot more to say about it other than it has a clean look and looks super good. And obviously it costs far far less than the rare alpha boost.
Party Time (Goal Explosion)
Why does everyone want hellfire? Why does everyone want dueling dragons? These are questions I ask myself as I write this, but I am thrilled that no one puts party time on the same level as those. Hellfire costs 1.4k, and in my opinion doesn’t even look that cool until it is painted in titanium white. Dueling dragons is cool, and it for sure is worthy of its 3.2k price tag. But these goal explosions take away the attention from my personal favorite goal explosion: Party Time. There’s something about the instant balloons and confetti that makes scoring a goal that much more fun. And for 550 credits, it is for sure worth the trade. It’s simplicity and vibrant colors makes it one of my favorites. Also, it is so easily recognizable that everyone will know immediately that your rocking the Party Time. I am currently in the market for one of these, and plan to have one by Christmas.
Bonus: Binary Trail
A bonus? Of course we couldn’t do this article without mentioning a trail we think is cool. People too often overlook trails, and they are mostly traded as NCR or NCVRs. But a cool trail can add a lot to any Rocket League look, and I think the binary is pretty overlooked. It costs less than 100 credits, but the hardest part will be finding one. A lot of people have the standard issue, non-painted binary trail but the Titanium White and Crimson ones are few and far between.
That is our list of underrated cars. Tell us your thoughts about what we got right or wrong below…
