While it's not a story that caused the creation of the item, I was kinda expecting to hear about the pidgeon topper, with its collector story that you mentioned in one of your "rarest titles" video (the first one, I think?) - if that qualifies.

[@cbadz358]

[@josephmontanaro1962]

Fun fact: Taco boost was kinda-sorta a player request. I might be able to find it if I looked hard enough, but as I recall it went something like this: Redditor: Churro topper or I uninstall Psyonix (either Devin or Corey, I think): Would you accept Taco boost as a substitute Redditor: Make it chicken tacos and we'll talk (or something like that)

[@Rocket_Sledge]

I'll check up on this. thanks

[@JJtoob]

I don't know if there is direct relation, since it would involve asking Psyonix directly for confirmation, but former RLCS pro PlutoRL mentioned on Twitter on April 28th that he'd like the opposite of the Poof goal explosion that comes with the Rocket Pass 3 (RP3 was announced April 9th, released April 17th, 2019), meaning he wanted a nuclear bomb explosion that'd blow up the entire stadium lol. Almost exactly 5 months after that tweet (September 27th, 2019), Psyonix announces the Twitch Gaming loot items (previously known as Twitch Prime), one of those items is the Tactical Nuke Goal Explosion (in pack 4 of the loot). It doesn't blow up the entire stadium but it does a good job at blinding the crap out of players who get to see it. Now, did others suggest a nuke goal explosion? Probably, but I do think it's very likely Pluto had some influence in getting it made. Funny thing is I told this story on Twitter recently and he replied saying he had forgotten about his tweet lol.

[@Rocket_Sledge]

Worth checking out. Thanks!

@@fullbeans983 None of the items mentioned in the video have a 'thrilling backstory.' What makes the alpha/beta items worth mentioning is that they are unlike any other items in the game, and not everyone is aware of their existence.

[@Rocket_Sledge]

@@xdflamez A silver could do those things if they trained mechanics hard. But if you're are silver three I'd assume you either are trying to do those too much in rank or lacking in other areas that are needed to rank up. All depends on your goals for RL. If rank isn't important it really doesn't matter. For contrast I do none of those things and I'm Champ.

[@Walmarts1]

7:14 when a GC only beats golds by 2 goals 😂

[@Rocket_Sledge]

Given the context I think we can assume why. First of all this is the Rocket League Community member on a "GC account". I'm not sure Dirk is GC, but either way this account is probably just for testing purposes. Secondly, they were proving the rank hack Null had found, not trying to beat up on lower levels.
