Rocket League Twitch streams have helped aid the games popularity and it was evident right away that the game could translate to eSport success.

    I'll never forget last summer when I was at my friend's house and my best friend Jon told me about Rocket League being a free game for PS Plus subscribers. I have been in love with it ever since
