This is a textbook example of an absolute madheli in “Rematch” finding out that mashing-jump reimburses faster than sprinting. Yes, you read that correctly. No more running; just get hopping like a caffeine hit for a kangaroo, and speed is unlocked. u/Hiken_D uploaded a clip showing this insane tech in action; well, it is quite hilarious upon which one could say is genius.

These players are losing their minds. Some say Rematch is alternate slide canceling (you know, the downright filthy movement techs from other games that are sweated to abuse). Others are just out for a good time- imagine a football sim where instead of tactical passes, you just start bouncing around across the field like a rubber ball. That is top-tier gaming.

Now, for the majority of players, that move does not really sit well with them. The exploit has been labeled as goofy by some players, who are currently pleading with the devs to patch it away. Honestly, it does make sense… it’s supposed to be that jumping doesn’t drain stamina like sprinting would, allowing for free speed, which is kind of broken. Dexerto even put in a URL to more complaints, so you can imagine how serious it is.

Reactions are simply too fun. One said it kind of looked like “unlocking kangaroo movement in a football sim,” and I felt it was spot on. Then another ironically said that sweats have ruined the game (classic), and then the Rocket League crowd was speculating if this would work better than their usual tactics; probably not, but worth a try.

There are defenders of the exploit. Like why patch something so entertaining? CBK put it best, telling developers, “you better not patch this…๐Ÿ˜‚,” and I mean that is the overall feeling. Then, there are those who said this isn’t new- jumping for speed is ancient FPS stuff from the stone age of gaming. So maybe Rematch is just paying tribute to the classics.

Then someone got it all for free-to-play as an indicator of “resounding success”. Bro, it’s sold 3 million copies-almost there, I would say, success. But hey, free stuffs are always a plus, right?

At the end of the day, be it patched or not, yet another reminder is here for us: players will always find a way to break a game that is totally unexpected. Speedrunners, exploit hunters, and chaos enthusiasts, you guys are the real MVP. Now, if you would excuse me, I need to hop right into the next match and test this out. Must go fast even if it means looking like a buffoon.
