Axis by axis

Execution10 vs 8

Rocket League leans harder on execution: Aerials, flicks, dribbles, pure mechanical ceiling

Reads6 vs 6

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance1 vs 2

Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars leans harder on variance: Little randomness in deterministic physics

Optimization3 vs 4

Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars leans harder on optimization: Boost management and rotation strategy form a real layer

Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
