Rocket League Season 18: 5 biggest changes

1) New mutators

Rocket League Season 18 has introduced a series of new mutators that will allow you to customize your game during Private and Exhibition Matches. Here are all the new mutators added to the game:

• Jumps: Take to the skies by increasing the number of jumps you can do at once. Do a double-jump, triple-jump, octuple-jump… Or, turn jumps off entirely and keep the competition ground level.
• Number of Balls: Why have just one soccar ball when you could have six? Choose between having one, two, four, or six balls in play.
• Ball Gravity: Alter the ball's gravitational pull and let the mayhem ensue. Options include low, high, super, and good ol’ fashioned default.
• Dodge Timer: Change the time allowed between dodges. Dial things up to unlimited and avoid ANY obstacle!
• Possession Score: Shake up the game by allowing players to score points just for staying in control of the ball.
• Demolish Score: Bring on the destruction! Allow players to score up to three points for each demolition.
• Normal Goal Score: Go for the goal like never before. Increase the points earned for each successful shot in the back of the net!
• Aerial Goal Score: Look out below! Increase how much you can score for each successful airborne shot.
• Assist Score: Teamwork is the key to victory. Allow players to earn up to three points for each assist.
• Enforce Territories: Get back on your side! This mutator enables the Split Shot wall, dividing teams across each half of the field. Players will be demolished if they touch the ground on the opponents' side.

Furthermore, existing mutators have been modified to now include newer options. Therefore, those such as Ball Type, Max Score, Demolish, and Rumble now have newer options.
