The Breezi Flick is one of the most stylish offensive maneuvers in Rocket League. It's a mechanic you can use to launch a goal quickly from afar — and look cool while doing it. While the BreeziFflick is an advanced skill that is difficult to learn and execute, it's something all the best Rocket League players know how to utilize.

Whether you're playing casually with friends or competitively in tournaments, the Breezi Flick can be a game-changer. Not only does it look cool, but it can also flip the momentum of an otherwise seemingly lost match. Since the Breezi Flick requires a complex number of inputs, this guide is made for players who want to master this trick.

How To Perform The Breezi Flick In Rocket League

To perform a Breezi Flick, you need to do a Tornado Spin, stop halfway through, and transition into a Musty Flick. When done correctly, you'll launch the ball directly ahead with a slight spin that is hard to defend.

That said, that's easier said than done, as the Breezi Flick is extremely technical. It requires hours of practice to get the timing down and an intricate knowledge of each input required. For a better understanding of the Breezi Flick, here’s a step-by-step breakdown:

Step 1: Set Up Directional Air Roll Keys

To begin, let’s talk about the first step: the Tornado Spin. This is a basic mechanic in Rocket League. To perform it, first you have to assign an input key to the Left and Right Air Rolls. You can do that by navigating to the settings menu. Once that is done, you can go ahead and perform the trick.

Step 2: Perform The Tornado Spin

Executing the Tornado Spin requires you to do a few things together. First, you need to jump and then, in mid-air, hold down either one of the left or right Air Roll keys you set up in the previous step. At the same time, you also need to push the left analog stick in the direction opposite to your Air Roll.

If you Air Roll to the left, push the left analog stick towards the right. For a right Air Roll, it's pushing the analog stick left. When done correctly, your vehicle will rotate around its axis and land.

Step 3: Stop the Directional Air Roll

Now it's time to practice letting go of the directional Air Roll button. When you're executing the Tornado Spin, let go of the directional Air Roll button as soon as your vehicle's nose points upwards when it is inverted. Keep in mind not to let go of the left analog stick and keep pushing it in the stated direction throughout the spin.

When you let go of the Air Roll button, your vehicle should now crash into the ground. However, if you look closely, you'll notice that just before your vehicle hits the ground, it will be at an angle greater than ninety degrees with the ground. In simpler words, your vehicle will be totally vertical, with the nose towards the ground and tilted slightly behind. This is your cue to perform the Musty Flick, the final action needed for the Breezi Flick.

Step 4: Perform A Musty Flick When The Vehicle Points Down

As soon as you let go of the Air Roll, your vehicle’s nose will point to the ground. This is the moment you execute a Musty Flick to shoot the ball ahead. A Musty Flick can be executed by performing a backflip, that is, by pushing the left analog stick down and pressing the jump button.

To summarize this step, once you let go of the Air Roll button and your car’s nose points downwards, do a backflip. And that's the gist of how to perform a Breezi Flick in Rocket League.

Tips To Get The Timing Down

Hopefully, the guide above was easy to follow. That said, you need to set the Breezi Flick up at an angle and must also be precise with your timing. The trick is to practice each move of the Breezi Flick individually, and once you get the hang of them, try to execute the Flick.

Learning to cancel or let go of the Air Roll button at the right time is the first step. When you nail down its timing, then work on when to Musty Flick. The best way to do this is by adhering to visual cues for yourself. For instance, when you see the underside of your car and its nose points upwards during the Tornado Spin, let go of the directional air roll but not of the analog stick.

And later on, when the nose of your car is pointing to the ground, that's the cue for you to initiate the Musty Flick. Some people might learn to Breezi Flick in an hour, but if it takes days for you to understand how it works, then that's a natural part of developing your Rocket League skills.

Having said that, free play is one thing, and performing the Breezi Flick in a match is another. It's really tough to perform it during matches for several reasons. For starters, you need a lot of space to set up the shot. If you're too close to the goal, you won't have space to execute it. If you're too far away, the ball loses momentum. Boosting will also make you lose control of the ball and result in a failed attempt.

There's also the threat of great defenders guarding goals. For the Breezi Flick to work, you'll need to make sure you're at the right distance and that there aren't too many players near the goal. Ideally, you should set up the Breezi Flick as a counter offense when the defenders aren't on their side of the arena.

Advanced Breezi Flick Variations

The step-by-step guide above is the classic way to do the Breezi Flick in Rocket League. However, you can create your own variations of the trick depending upon the situation at hand. For example, the right or left Air Roll buttons aren't always that consistent. Sometimes the vehicle might flip in an unwanted way, ruining the angle. To counter this, you can use the simple Air Roll key and adjust the rotation yourself manually.

This Manual Breezi Flick is tougher to perform, but once you master it, you'll see that it has more consistent results. Alternatively, you can also perform a type of Delayed Breezi Flick. Instead of doing the Musty Flick when the nose of your car points downwards, wait another second and then do a backflip. This shot will hit the ball harder, which can prove useful in some scenarios. Similarly, there are so many ways you can modify the Breezi Flick. Be creative and don't strictly adhere to what you have learnt here.

Conclusion

The Breezi Flick is one of the all-time classic Rocket League tricks. It's an effective play to close the distance from afar and land a shocker of a goal. The many different nuances of the trick, like the Tornado Spin cancel and Musty Flick, make it a hard mechanic to master, but one well worth the effort.

Keep referring to the steps laid out above and practice on repeat. Trust in the process, and soon you'll almost always land the Breezi Flick when you want to. It's definitely one of the more difficult Rocket League tricks to learn. But once you do, not only will you look cool among friends, but you'll also score goals perfect for your highlight reel.
