Ways to get the Heatwave Decal in Rocket League
Despite the removal of crates during the blueprint update, there are still many methods to obtain the Heatwave decal in Rocket League. These include: blueprints, trading, item sites, and special events.
Blueprints
Blueprints replaced crates back in late 2019. If you had any of the 4 champions crates, then you had a chance of getting a Heatwave blueprint. Receiving a blueprint does not mean you have the actual item. You have to spend credits to unlock the Heatwave Rocket League decal.
Trading
Trading is another way to get the Heatwave decal.
Firstly, check the prices of items in your inventory that you do not use. You will likely have unwanted items that you can sell for some credits. Many people are often surprised at how many of their unwanted items actually sell for a good amount of credits. Adding up all of these selling trades may be enough to get you your Heatwave decal for free!
You can also purchase credits from sites such as Aoeah. These reliable sites sell credits cheaper than in-game and they are completely legit! Well, most are. We know Aoeah are a trustable company so we recommend using them. To visit their site, use the ‘Get the Heatwave Decal Here’ button at the top of this page.
Once you have the required amount of credits, you need a place to trade. RL Insider or Trade Central discord servers are good options. On these servers, you should be able to find someone that is selling the Heatwave decal. Be careful of the price they are listing. Again, you can check the price on our page or RL Insider (live prices) to see if they are offering a good deal.
Item Selling Sites
As briefly mentioned in the trading, you can use Aoeah for cheap credits. You can also buy the Heatwave directly from Aoeah. This method is slightly more expensive than purchasing credits then trading your credits for the decal but buying the item directly will definitely be more time consuming.
Special Events
Special events are run throughout the year for Halloween, Christmas, Easter, and more. During these events, players are rewarded golden gifts after playing matches. For example, golden eggs are gifted during Easter. These golden gifts contain random rewards and the Heatwave decal can usually have to chance to be obtained.
