What works

What makes a good Rocket League thumbnail?

The car is the face

No player shows up in Rocket League, so your car carries the frame. One bright paint colour and a long boost trail read on any phone.

Show the rank

Bronze ring on one side, a glowing winged crest on the other. Rank emblems tell people how good you are before they read a word.

Draw the path

Dashed lines, curved arrows, a red circle on a wheel. Mechanics videos sell the move, so show where the car or ball goes.

Big ball, big stadium

The giant ball and the bright arena are what everyone knows. Put the ball near the car and the game reads at a glance.

Questions, answered straight.

How do you make a Rocket League thumbnail?+

Pick a layout above or paste your video link, add a screenshot of your car or your match, then change anything by typing: the text, the paint, the rank emblem, the boost trail.

What size is a Rocket League thumbnail?+

Same as any YouTube thumbnail: 16:9. YouTube recommends 3840x2160 with a 640 pixel minimum width, as a JPG or PNG, up to 50MB on desktop or 2MB from the mobile app.

Are these Rocket League thumbnail templates free?+

Opening a template is free. You get 90 free credits on signup with no card, enough to make and edit your first thumbnails.

Can I put my own car on it?+

Yes. Add a screenshot of your car as a Character and it goes into the scene in place of the grey stand-in, with your paint, wheels and boost.

Are these copied from other creators?+

No. Each layout is a new picture made with a grey stand-in car, built from the patterns top Rocket League thumbnails share, not a copy of any one of them. Rocket League is a game by Psyonix.
