Tournament Rewards
Tournament rewards are probably nothing too crazy, for those that play in tournaments, once you end up playing in high-level tournaments, and unlock the different cups, we think you have to get at least a champ to get to that final point.

Rocket League Season 8 Rocket Pass
Ranked Rewards are unique Rocket League items that you can obtain by ranking up during each Rocket League season. Most seasons have about seventy different Tiers, each of which gives you a different reward (if you own the premium Rocket Pass, that is). You can improve your rank in a variety of playlists and track your progress in Rocket League by visiting the Rocket Pass tab and the Ranked Match selection screen. Both of Season 8's Rocket Passes are divided into two parts. The first is the free standard Rocket Pass, which includes a limited selection of Rocket League items available at various tiers up to and including Tier 110. Meanwhile, the Premium Rocket Pass costs 1000 RL Credits for the base version, or 2000 RL Credits if you also want twelve-tier skips. The Premium Pass includes ranked rewards for each of the season's 70 ranked reward tiers.
