gameplay-tips

[polar sage]

Yall be telling me everything I know

[umbral crag]

often times you can do stuff to prevent your tm8 from being in the position to make that mistake

[hot flame]

then implement it

[polar sage]

I have mechanics but i dont just spam them

[hot flame]

bc u can easily 1v2 gc1's if your smart

[stuck sparrow]

then stop complaining

[warm yoke]

@autumn swallow

[polar sage]

I know when for a time in place

[polar sage]

Bro shut up talkin to me i only care about scrub and starr

[hot flame]

whew

[stuck sparrow]

calm down bro why you getting aggressive for i am not the one complaining about gc1s

[polar sage]

Ik but not tryna dodge demos and save it just for points

[hot flame]

are you complaining about demoes 😭

[polar sage]

Not complaining about the rank about the ppl

[hot flame]

out of all things, demoes can actually benefit you

[polar sage]

Never that i do it way to much

[stuck sparrow]

...?

[south abyss]

How can i do looking for group and than al the tings i have / want?

[hot flame]

you cant, they ruined it

[warm yoke]

@static solstice

[south abyss]

I see many gays are doung it

[polar sage]

If i can play with myself

[umbral crag]

if you are getting demoed in 1v2s then you are probably not committing w/ your tm8/sitting too far back to have any presence on the ball and be able to follow up or chal whenever you have an opportunity

[polar sage]

I would be a happy soul

[cyan sage]

even pros do 💀

[hot flame]

/looking-for-group

[stuck sparrow]

look at pins

[hot flame]

yep, but apparently every gc1-2 thinks they are perfect

[polar sage]

I dont get demoed i know how to dodge them i just gotta do extra sh to dodge them which someone doesnt matter and I still save it or they do enough to mess me up

[warm yoke]

@raven apex

[polar sage]

When im in that Situation i try to by time but my tm8s just dont even put in an effort to help

[umbral crag]

either way you shouldn't be leaving yourself in 1v2s that often so the rest of the msg is still relevant

[polar sage]

How am I leaving my self in a 2v1

[stuck sparrow]

thats for you to figure out watch your replays

[polar sage]

Why are u still talking to me

[stuck sparrow]

bro i am sorrying for helping you

you dont gotta be such a dick

[umbral crag]

#gameplay-tips message
#gameplay-tips message
you mentioned being demoed -> scored on/put into a bad spot and needing to stall for tm8s

[polar sage]

Igh

[feral sail]

Each post has the person that made it.search his/her name using the magnify glass icon up top and click their profile,then DM

They didn’t really ruin lfg but the DM problem is why it sucks

[autumn swallow]

?

[woeful mason]

not being able to put a custom message is also a large downgrade, so it's not unfair to say ruined. If they let you put a message in there as well it would be fine, but you can't specify anything but rank and mode now. for example, playstyles you are looking for, age requirements, tryharding or not etc

[cyan sage]

How do I do the group thing

[rapid moon]

can anyone do a vod review on a D1 2s game of mine

[barren jay]

how do i do the group thing

[high brook]

@cyan sage

@south abyss

[south abyss]

?

[high brook]

I was just getting ur @ from lfg

[cyan sage]

You can do looking for group by doing /looking and then on the top of your chat thing it will say look for group post

[high brook]

@plush harbor

[high brook]

Yeah but some of the @‘s on the posts don’t work so I just type them here so I can message them

[cyan sage]

I just add the name that sent it

[high brook]

@short sail

[short sail]

???

[high brook]

I just pm you

[short sail]

oh

[lilac fulcrum]

any tips for a c2 who got d3 placements

[dense falcon]

Matty tho#4153

[cloud thunder]

I don’t understand how looking for a group works.

I’m just trying to get a 3rd team mate to help my friend get ranked out of gold

[lilac fulcrum]

SOMEBODY ADRESS MY ISSUE PLEASE

how do u do the new looking for group post thing i like it

[trail dagger]

Look in pinned messages

[cyan sage]

@feral sinew

[lilac fulcrum]

keh

[modest tusk]

Keep playing. If c2 is your peak you gonna hit d3 a few times. Some fluctuation is completely normal

[fiery garnet]

play more

[modest tusk]

Pick something basic and train it very well, like powershots or simple aerials

[fiery garnet]

coaching before you are at least diamond is useless, cuz you need to improve at every part of your game @cyan sage

@cyan sage 5 hours a day, would still take you like 100 days to catch up to most diamonds in hours.

@cyan sage all good, but him saying he has spent 5 hours a day, doesnt make him good is my point. practise does, and what i said is valid, plats are missing so much of the game, that best way to improve, is just to play more

im not saying more per day, but over time

[shell scroll]

he means play consistently

not all day every day

isn’t healthy

[fiery garnet]

i basicly only do private matches now 🙂 hard to find any these days tho, cuz the new lfg stuff

[silent lance]

@fiery garnet how do you use the lfg channel

[fiery garnet]

You need to select a role in the role channel, then do “/lo” and the option should pop up

[stuck thunder]

@mortal quail

🧍‍♂️ Thats tragic

[sly fable]

Fr

[vale harbor]

anyone want some coaching

nah you better than me fs

didnt we 1v1 a while ago

i mean ill do it...

[cyan sage]

How to get out off champsv

[drowsy urchin]

How am i supposed to msg ppl i want to que iwth on looking for group wtf

[vale harbor]

its pinned

[drowsy urchin]

can we remove that cause using the command is stupid

[restive thistle]

opps mb didnt mean to type in here

[drowsy urchin]

Therse no join voice message and theres no way to message the person so how tf am i supposed to talk to them

[feral sail]

Type their name using the magnify glass up top.click the profile,then DM

[vale parcel]

anyone use zens keybinds with a xbox controller

[drowsy urchin]

thats so stupid and harder than the old way

bring back old way! on behalf of everyone

[vital epoch]

do you guys have any reccomendations on youtubers i should watch to learn good mechanics?

[balmy slate]

i just started playing the game after three years and i used to be silver, but i started playing again a few days ago and im holding my weight in diamond. i have solo queued my way up into diamond 2 and idk how. anyone known why?

[rotund ivy]

Yo can somebody get on call with me and take me through the steps to get workshop maps

[chrome ginkgo]

Anyone wanna coach me?

[vital epoch]

is there anyone you watched in particular

[honest jungle]

[honest jungle]

I think “flakes” is a good person to learn from

[honest jungle]

Hé has like videos dedicated to replay analysis on what most people do wrong in certain situations and stuff, would definitely recommend watching if your tryna improve your game

[chrome ginkgo]

Anyone wanna coach me

[smoky sky]

Dms

[pale niche]

how do i do the lfg post??

[autumn swallow]

@slender yacht

[fresh ledge]

I’m wondering is there any way to work on rotations in free play? Or do I have to be in game, just wondering

[woeful mason]

you have to be in game, or atleast in a replay to get the understanding of it. You can practice boost pad pathing in freeplay but not rotations

[maiden shard]

best to just play many twos

[balmy slate]

i just dropped 3 ranks in 30 minutes i swear i hate the rl ranked system

[fresh ledge]

Ok thanks for the help

[balmy slate]

i was diamond after not playing for 3 years i hit diamond and my team has been terible ever since

if you drop into plat everyone has an inflated ego and cant defend

i need somone to help

[woeful mason]

can you screenshare some gameplay? I could take a look

[cyan sage]

lOl

[celest quiver]

istg every game is a gamble im remembering why i never played at the start of a season

[peak isle]

d

[cyan sage]

What rank am I supposed to be at 400 hours?

[minor dock]

plat3

[cyan sage]

Fr?

[cyan sage]

Gotta be lying

[minor dock]

what rank are you rn?

[cyan sage]

Champ

[minor dock]

you have a top 1% brain then, you should be ssl by 1000 hours

[cyan sage]

Damn idk about that man I need to work on my mechs

[balmy slate]

i dropped to plat 1

[balmy slate]

i have 30 hours and i hit diamond on placement

[celest quiver]

💀

[minor dock]

dang im diamond and have almost 21000 hours

[balmy slate]

thats tough

you freestyle and are only in diamond?

[minor dock]

yeah i can triple reset on diamonds

[balmy slate]

thats impressive

[minor dock]

not rlly

[balmy slate]

i know 0 mechanics and hit diamond somehow

these ppl are jokes

[minor dock]

you dont need mechs until champ 2

[balmy slate]

wow

no one knows how to play in plat

all my tm8s have inflated egos

[minor dock]

diamonds and champs be like "chase chase chase"

[balmy slate]

i feel like diamonds should have decent air control

its at that point they might want to master car control

other then learning mechanics

all the people in diamond and high plat forfeit after 1 goal

its ridiculous

[minor dock]

they just lack patience

[balmy slate]

fr

always chasing the ball

terrible positioning

[minor dock]

just take lsd and think real deep about rocket league

[balmy slate]

iq used to play on xbox and the highest rank ive hit is silver on there

my epic account got deactivated

so i play on pc now

[maiden shard]

i just started can any one help?

[quick bough]

looking for someone to help me out w my mechs, (no mic)

[flint plaza]

watch some yt vids

[lethal arch]

would someone be able to train me? im silver3. trying to get to plat1 or gold3

[lethal arch]

(free)

[stuck thunder]

just work on hitting the ball

[torn magnet]

@round plank fix ur damn game

[lethal arch]

ive been working on that for 2-3 weeks. not improving sadly

[balmy slate]

work on positioning and car control first

would be alot easier recovering even if you miss

[lethal arch]

I do need work on that but I want someone to be able to train me

bc when I do it and then I hop into a match I still cant do it

[balmy slate]

yeah thats not really how most ppl get better

[lethal arch]

so idk if im doing it right or not

[balmy slate]

if you dont want to train work on positioning in normal games

[autumn swallow]

@blazing rampart

[tardy void]

How do I use the looking for group thing

I’m just trying to find a 2s partner

[balmy slate]

ill join but im not that goof

good

what rank are you

@tardy void

[tardy void]

On my main in C2 looking for the same rank

[balmy slate]

damn nvm

[verbal breach]

If ur d1 in 1s what are u in 2s ?

[balmy slate]

im d1 in 3s

solo q

i dropped 3 ranks tho

[verbal breach]

Bc I’m c2 his season was de got back up to c1 but idk how to play the random lobby’s of diamond d1 d2 and high d3 is weird and c1 is weird too

[verbal breach]

Solo q ez

[balmy slate]

not in plat

[verbal breach]

Ball chase

[balmy slate]

i cant when my tm8s are basicly playing against me

they ff on 1 goal

[verbal breach]

If they beat u that means 1 u never play 1s to know when to challenge and 2 ur to slow

Fr

Just get faster 🤓

[balmy slate]

i play behind my team usually

[verbal breach]

That’s the problem

[stuck thunder]

I dont think this game is for you, or you havent been playing for very long per day

[verbal breach]

Bro u d3 letting plata play 💀

Bro I got to d3 in 3s in like a day just by ball chasing I don’t even play 3s lmao

[balmy slate]

i legit have 30 hours on the game

[stuck thunder]

thats why all i do is ballchase

[stuck thunder]

30 hours listed where

[verbal breach]

I got 9 days in the game

[stuck thunder]

30 hours in career stats you should be diamond

[elder quartz]

how do you ariel

[verbal breach]

Have been playing since free release tho so like 2 years LMAO

No wait

[stuck thunder]

jump up, lean forward, and boost, have to have 100 boost tho

[balmy slate]

damn its less than 30\

i have 6 hours

[verbal breach]

3 year of playing rl and I’m just high c2 gah dam

I’m ass, I blame my self for freestyling 2 years out of 3

[elder quartz]

i thought 1s was for "pussies". my friend told me.

[balmy slate]

ive never played ranked 1s

[verbal breach]

Bro from 3 year 2 where dedicated to freestyle or 2 and a half

[balmy slate]

ima do that rq

[verbal breach]

That explains

[elder quartz]

oh he said that the real skill comes from seeing how fast it takes to get to the ball in 2s

[verbal breach]

Bro I got to d1 I’m not saying it’s hard but it’s actually like a challenge bc they got insane aim and control just they can’t air dribble but they can flick and dribble like cray and save air shots

[elder quartz]

:(

[verbal breach]

They can do anything except mechy stuff

[stuck thunder]

your friend is right, ballchase, it's the best way to play

[elder quartz]

bosnian was the friend in question

[verbal breach]

Bro

🗿

[stuck thunder]

friend aquired

[verbal breach]

wait what

Wym

[stuck thunder]

🧍‍♂️3k hours listed where

hopefully not career stats 😭

[verbal breach]

Mostly training

[elder quartz]

oh is that it...

[stuck thunder]

3k hours just to get to a rank you can ballchase to 😔

[elder quartz]

i meant ur rank....

[verbal breach]

Probably, because I got 3 years like 1k bc I don’t play to much and like 800 or 900 is pure training

[elder quartz]

its okay i can coach you

[stuck thunder]

he's saying 3k hours and only gc2

why not ssl yet

[verbal breach]

Tf u mean only

[stuck thunder]

only, as in 3k hours is too long for gc2

[verbal breach]

Gc2 is like the top 1% of players

💀

[stuck thunder]

if everyone put in 3k hours they'd all be gc2 at least

[verbal breach]

Bro I’m on track I got like 1k idk how to check and I’m champ 2 😭

[stuck thunder]

You can just ballchase to gc2, why'd it take you 3k hours to ballchase to gc2

[elder quartz]

but ur only gc2

[stuck thunder]

unlucky really

[verbal breach]

Me spending all my time working on mustys and flip resets and phsycos just to never use them again in comp

[stuck thunder]

💀

[verbal breach]

lol, my break point is d3 I can’t get out of it, I got out of it bc I was hard stuck I got used to that play style now I’m used to fast play style and seeing tm8 wiff the most open net possible im dead 💀

[elder quartz]

ok miller

[verbal breach]

I watched the maktuf one 😭 I just started grinding comps and ye that’s prob why I’m c2 and not c3 bc my mechs are way to high for c2 there ssl mechs a ssl mate told me he just said my game sense is the problem

He ain’t wrong tho

Leth is good tho

Dam how much is champ 2 ?

[elder quartz]

idk man i think i could hit ssl in 2k hours

[verbal breach]

Amr writing a Bible

[verbal breach]

Ye fr it’s to ez

[flint plaza]

maybe because u r used to be looking at the ball all the time

you should work on your awareness

if you don't know where is your tm8
and where are your opponents
you won't be able to do those mechs ingame

[verbal breach]

Dam no way dawg how in 848 hours a d3 gonna know what’s a delayed 90 degree flick

[verbal breach]

Ye now I’m playing ones and I’m learning when to challenge a flick of when not to challenge and it helps a lot

[elder quartz]

do u need help with 1s my friend?

[verbal breach]

Specially with those 1v1 players that got 0 mechs like they can’t even go in the air i and there aim is op they hit everything top

[verbal breach]

Nah, I’m good in 1s

[elder quartz]

can u help me?

[verbal breach]

With what

[elder quartz]

positioning

[verbal breach]

but fr tho this is what annoys me from 1s

[elder quartz]

diamon 3

[verbal breach]

Play 1s then

[flint plaza]

I recommend watching FlowStateGG
he made an entire video on awareness

appjack made a video too

[verbal breach]

Just stay the opposite of the ball and let ur tm8 ball chase that’s how u get out of d3 and if ur d3 in 1s well in that rank u should know almost everything all ready

[verbal breach]

Ye I watched app jacks vid it’s good

My only problem is 2s bc if I challenge my tm8 bumps me out and like he’s a d3 he’s trash and I’m faster than everyone in the lobby and I have better control but most of the goals is bc they challenge so awkward and the 50/50 it goes straight to my net while my tm8 is up getting big boost instead of little pads

[flint plaza]

watch pro gameplay especially in one perspective only (unlike show matches)
so you can see how to defend every shot

[verbal breach]

I literally waited for him to get back and challenged next thing I know he’s in there side getting big boost and saying what a save

Like bro no matter what happens that ain’t my fault

[elder quartz]

pro gameplay is too fast for my games. i need to learn how to position for my types of games

[verbal breach]

D3s are so random the 50/50 so good but can’t hit a shot

[verbal breach]

I suggest to go to training and try and hit the ball consistently who cares if ur in a awkward spot try to control then flick or whatever just be hitting fast and consistent

[maiden shard]

i need coach im bad : )

[verbal breach]

That’s what I did and that’s what they suggested there other ways like playing 1s but I feel like that helps to be faster and control the ball in fast pace

How u check for ps4?

It says I got 9 days played

[flint plaza]

simply spam "I got it" in quick chat

it works for me in 2s and 3s

[verbal breach]

Idk what’s that

[verbal breach]

But what can I do if my tm8 is up and I’m waiting for him to go back bc div4 d3s there mostly high c1s bc of the big downrank thing that happened and there capable of flicking it and if he never comes to defend I got a be last man challenging a ball I shouldn’t challenge

And most probably I will get flicked over

[flint plaza]

I don't grind too much

but am between plat 3 and c1
last season

I didn't even finish my placement this season

you can consider me a casual main

[flint plaza]

don't real challenge as flakes said

as a last man in this situation
your goal is to buy your tm8 time

the best option is to shadow

but some ppl are too good at 50s so they can take a 50 towards their tm8

[dark canyon]

@twilit lark

[flint plaza]

flakes can go for 4-5 fake challenges before the real challenge

so if you are not good at them
watch flakes

[verbal breach]

Ok bet

[twilit turtle]

Dunno why, but c2 - c3 players are playing in d3 lobbys

[dusk oak]

<@@twilit turtle>

[woeful mason]

c3 and gc 1 is pretty stacked right now

[sick trellis]

^ literally the players in that rn are lower after the rank resets

i was like mid high gc1 last season n rn im in mid c3

[woeful mason]

ye, I was mid gc 2 last season, and the games getting to gc 1 were pretty good games. definitely not normal c3 games

[sick trellis]

fr its wild out here in these streets

[cyan sage]

can someone watch me play 1s and 2s and tell me what i do wrong

[woeful mason]

what rank are you

[cyan sage]

D1

in 2s

[woeful mason]

sure, I can watch

[cyan sage]

ok

[twilit turtle]

Was c1 last season, got demoted to diamond 1 and now its difficult to get champ 1 back bcs of c2 - c3

[woeful mason]

that will clear out after a bit, early season be like that

playing early season for rank pbs isn't normally a thing, its more so for good games that you normally don't get mid season

[fossil mantle]

#looking-for-group message

[twilit turtle]

Bru, i dont want to do solo que but i dont have a choice

[sick trellis]

the thing you gotta realize is playing fast in any mode in this game isn't necessarily the way to win

slow things down and outplay your opponents

especially in diamond people aren't fully thinking about how to challenge the ball and cut off angles

out think them

yes true

thats what i meant by that lmao my bad

^

it is, the more you make smart quick decisions that's what really playing fast is, controlling the ball and making quick decisive choices

YOOOO I JUST HIT A CLIP

i hit like a backwards redirect to a double tap

[maiden shard]

need coach

[viral solar]

I coach for free, I was SSL last season

[hexed pivot]

can anyone coach me

can someone coach me please

[tardy void]

how do u make a looking for group?

[viral solar]

pretty sure its pinned in the actual looking for group discussion

[queen oar]

can someone help me with power shots i dont get the concept lol

[mellow inlet]

hit the ball so that it goes fast

increase fov

[woeful mason]

there is no fix, you have to learn to be able to play with it like that anyway. Most the time you shouldn't be going for the ball if its directly above you anyway

[mellow inlet]

the max is 110

[woeful mason]

280 is distance

[mellow inlet]

copy a pros cam settings

if it still looks odd then give up

[woeful mason]

if you can't see the ball when it's just in the air in general, your camera settings are whack, if you can't see your car when its right above you. That's normal

yes

[mellow inlet]

and there lies the issue

[woeful mason]

if the ball is directly above you, it can be disorienting to learn how to fly straight up with your camera all weird, but it's definitely doable.

[mellow inlet]

use staples

yo ass said papers ain’t sticking together

just staple them together

ah

see by joint papers I thought you meant actual joined papers

[feral sail]

Bro is not rolling a joint

We got kids here bro make an example

[cyan sage]

how do you do transition from 2s/3s to 1s with aerial plays as the main playstyle

[feral sail]

Find ways to have possession, such as playing a little aggressive,making them throw away possession with fake challenges, eating boost

[rapid moon]

does anyone have any tips for more quickly cancelling the flip when performing a speed flip

i am struggling to get the cancel fast enough

[cyan sage]

can anyone coach me in 1s?

[sturdy forge]

U could hold directional air roll while speed flipping and just point the stick from 11 o clock to 6 and just roll it back to 11 to keep it going, that's just how I do it

[snow wyvern]

yo how do u type in lfg. i just came back to the disc

[sly fable]

Is half flipping using air roll wrong?

[cyan locust]

Not technically, no

If you're using air roll, backflip cancel and then using your air roll is the exact same as diagonal backflip canceling

It only matters when speed flipping whether you use air roll or not

[sly fable]

So basically the air roll way is easier.

[cyan locust]

You can't, champs are braindead

[cyan locust]

Yeah pretty much

Champs don't understand the fact that challenging is dangerous and gets you scored on

In specific situations obviously, not every situation

[sly fable]

In these situations, i usually try and play fast and possibly get the ball over him.

[cyan locust]

If you wanna get out of champ don't use mechs, it's that simple

[mighty elbow]

what yall think is more important? assists or goals?

[cyan locust]

Doesn't matter as long as you win

Both are equally as important

[sly fable]

Its pretty hard to change my playstyle.

[cyan locust]

Not using mechs isn't changing your play style, it's making you better by forcing you to play with the basics making you better

If you master the basics of rotations, bounce dribbles, defense and speed flips you will make it to SSL without having to drive on the wall

[royal carbon]

CAP

SSL isn't that easy

[cyan locust]

It is

[royal carbon]

You need to atleast be able to air dribble

I am gc3 take it from me

[cyan locust]

I'm SSL and can't air dribble

[royal carbon]

And?

[cyan locust]

I play defense, pass, and shoot

[royal carbon]

Your NA? I presume

Trash region

[cyan locust]

Region has nothing to do with it lmfao

[royal carbon]

Lmfao yes it does

[upbeat ravine]

no it doesent

[cyan locust]

There's a top 50 player who doesn't use mechs on wu

[royal carbon]

And?

[sly fable]

True. My ground game is horrendous.

[cyan locust]

Ground play is 10x more effective than air play because you're limited to direction

[royal carbon]

Bro, if all you had to do was use ground plays

I would be SSL bro I'm better at ground plays mate

[cyan locust]

You have an ego, you're not that good if you're hard stuck GC bruh

[royal carbon]

IK but you think you can get SSL that easy

[sly fable]

What region are you?

[royal carbon]

Also I was SSL just before this

[upbeat ravine]

@royal carbon your mental is trash ngl

[royal carbon]

And

[cyan locust]

Exactly

[royal carbon]

Also I'm EU

[upbeat ravine]

@royal carbon prolly why your not ssl

[royal carbon]

@upbeat ravine Probably why I'm not SSL?
Because I'm EU and the player base is better?

[sly fable]

If i want to improve ground play, just play 1s?

[upbeat ravine]

disagree

[cyan locust]

If you wanna improve in general, just play 1s

[upbeat ravine]

Im EU im way better🤓 🤓 🤓

[cyan locust]

If you want to improve ground play specifically, play casuals in your favorite mode

[royal carbon]

Cap

what rank

[upbeat ravine]

@royal carbon your corny asf😭

[royal carbon]

I agree with this

Play 1s to improve

[cyan locust]

My first mode I hit SSL in was 1s, it's the mode with the largest skill gap by far

[upbeat ravine]

agreed

[royal carbon]

However you need a certain level of 'mechanics' to be SSL

[cyan locust]

No, no you don't

[royal carbon]

Gc is easy no mechs

[upbeat ravine]

yes you do

[royal carbon]

but SSL is a different story when you are playing pro players

It is just different

[cyan locust]

Pro players aren't low SSL, that's where you are wrong

[royal carbon]

They are high

SSL ik that

[cyan locust]

They are 900 mmr above ssl

[royal carbon]

But not all pros are

[sly fable]

2100 if i am correct

[royal carbon]

Some only even around 200 mmr above

[cyan locust]

Even then, that's 40+ wins after ssl

[sly fable]

SSL is 1900 right?

[royal carbon]

Yes, but you can match with them

[cyan locust]

Depends on the mode

[royal carbon]

10 - 200 mmr apart or so

So sometimes it is important to have mechs

[cyan locust]

I've played 2 pros and I'm sitting at 1700 mmr in 1s most seasons

It can be important, but I'm not saying they're not important

[royal carbon]

Also do you play on xbox?

[cyan locust]

Yeah

[royal carbon]

Ew

[sly fable]

There is a possibility you will match with high SSL just because there isnt alot of ppl in SSL

[royal carbon]

PC where its at

[cyan locust]

Didn't ask, still higher rank than you

[royal carbon]

And, bro I was 1900 last season

In 2s I was 1900

[cyan locust]

If you were 1900 you wouldn't have come in here saying 'im GC don't listen to him'

[royal carbon]

...

Because I'm currently Gc3 who would give their past rank

You are just hard egoing because your currently SSL, (If you even are)

[cyan locust]

Because it's brand new season, current mmr isn't your rank

[sly fable]

Doesn't really matter. But everything on PC looks cleaner.

[cyan locust]

The only difference is framerate

[woeful silo]

yep

[sly fable]

And graphic settings

[woeful silo]

also bakkesmod and workshop maps

[sly fable]

Set everything on low

[cyan locust]

Yeah bakkesmod is nice

I played on PC for a while but I couldn't handle not having elite controller paddles, they refused to work on my pc

[royal carbon]

That's why xbox isn't as good

You can't use mods and workshop maps

And frame rate is better on PC by a lot

[cyan locust]

You realize the #4 1s player is an Xbox player right

[royal carbon]

And? all the others are on PC

[woeful silo]

who?

[cyan locust]

yanz

[royal carbon]

bro your arguments are stupid

Just because one person plays on xbox

[cyan locust]

He's been #1 multiple times, you're saying PC is a massive advantage where it's not

[royal carbon]

is on the leaderboard doesnt mean its better than pc

[woeful silo]

which xbox?

[woeful silo]

bro it does

[cyan locust]

Series x, 120 fps

[woeful silo]

figures

[royal carbon]

PC is a big advantage btw

Also xboxs vary

[cyan locust]

How so, I'll listen to your reasoning

[royal carbon]

If you had a xbox 1

[woeful silo]

main advantage is fps tbh

if its 120 then it's aight

[royal carbon]

that has like 30 - 60 fps, xbox x has 120 and PC has 120+

[mortal quail]

Console vs PC isnt the frames
its the input delay between when you press a button to when it shows up
its much larger and more inconsistent than pc is

[cyan locust]

The human eye can barely detect over 120 fps anyways so that argument is invalid

[mortal quail]

there is work arounds, but if your gonna spend thousands of hours on a game, pc is just the better gaming experince

[cyan locust]

That's only wireless compared to wired controllers, I use a wired controller so I have 45 Ms input delay, same as pc

[mortal quail]

45Ms is not the PC input delay

[cyan locust]

what's PC input delay?

[mortal quail]

thats stupidly high
you sure you got your numbers right?

[cyan locust]

Hold on I'll check what it is on my pc

[mortal quail]

PC is on average around 5ms

can be less depending on factors
i know playstations is around the 10-15 mark

switch is around 25

[cyan locust]

You're right, it's 12 on my PC and 27 on my xbox

[mortal quail]

45 is like 1900s tech lmao

[cyan locust]

Idk why I had 45 in my head

[mortal quail]

but thats about the only major concern between the platforms

prob thought about ping?

[cyan locust]

maybe

I'm not using Ethernet rn so my ping is around 50

[sly fable]

Ping doesn't really matter between new gen and pc

[mortal quail]

ya it doesnt

[sly fable]

Not a huge difference

Also depends on your pc

[cyan locust]

I've never noticed a difference between my ping on my PC or Xbox as long as I have Ethernet plugged in

[mortal quail]

if you have shit internet on xbox
you gonna have shit internet on pc

[cyan locust]

never used my PC without Ethernet so I've never really checked it

On a completely different topic tho, have any of you noticed the change in extra modes rating after the season reset?

[mortal quail]

ye

they increased your mmr depending on your main modes

[cyan locust]

I played 6 games on my smurf, was sitting at D3 in dropshot, season comes around, I'm now c3 div 2

[mortal quail]

they wanted to balance them out per reset

so some ranks got lower, while others went up

like my 1s went up 50 mmr lmao

[cyan locust]

Idk, my 1s is at c3 while the rest are in diamond since it's a throwing account but it still jumped that high

Kind of crazy to me

[cyan sage]

yea, my c3 tms are d2 that got lucky on placements

i checked their ranks last season

unbelievable

is sad to soloq when you are too good for your rank

but you get this kind of tms

soloq is just for people who dont deserve that rank and nobody wants to play with them

that's very rare

there are just a few gc+ people in this discord so is hard to find any tms

[mortal quail]

Ouch

[cyan sage]

F

is hard to carry teammates that dont want to play in team

in 3s ppl should know rotations at this point

but not even in gc1 3s they knew how to rotate

i think they know how to rotate only in ssl

fr

[mortal quail]

Rotations are very vague unfortunately
Compared to pros even ssls are slow at rotations. Then in pro play rotations are thrown out for a more set style

[cyan sage]

tell that to my tms that are in the corner of the opponents

then cut me when i am about to score open net and end up bumping me

[mortal quail]

Happens

[cyan sage]

get both of us out of the play and they score on us

[cyan sage]

literally every game

[mortal quail]

My teammates just tend to not shoot the ball

[cyan sage]

i have easier time in gc2 rather than champ

at least they have an idea on how to play the game

[mortal quail]

C2 in its entirely was horrible

At least for me in c3 most players seem competent
Only tending to lose due to my own mistakes. Even if my teammates are mid

But man c2
Felt for awhile a lot of goals there wasn't much I could do differently

[cyan sage]

maybe c3 that came from high gc1+

but they whiff a lot if they are legit c3

[mortal quail]

Idk the previous ranks, they don't whiff they just get rough touches and put themselves in bad spots so they aren't able to shoot

Relies mostly on me to finish off a play

Saving and defense is a lot easier in c3. Just the offense part that's annoying

[cyan sage]

well, i guess 1s is the only playable mode

because is solo

[mortal quail]

1s is horrible what

Its still unplayable even after the mmr shift

1s is purely off improvement. No point in trying to rank up unless your gc in both 2s and 3s

[cyan sage]

i was last season lol

this season my placements were horrible

[mortal quail]

You got this

Meanwhile I'm trying to reach gc back lol

[modest tusk]

Nani? Ero playing again?

[mortal quail]

Yes

Val annoyed me so

[cyan sage]

bruh, why are gc1s so bad at the game 💀

i got in hoops a gc tm and he whiffed every shot he went for

these soloq teammates make me think i am 5 ranks higher in level than them

[dusky fiber]

normal and hoops are whole diffrent gamemodes, it can happen quite often that gcs for example take way too much time and dribble to much etc cause they are used to it from normals but it doesnt work that well in hoops, aswell as shots

[cyan locust]

It's the same in dropshot, SSL teammates make me think I'm back in champ lobbies sometimes with everyone ball chasing

[cyan sage]

i never whiff the ball at a fast speed

and besides i have common sense

my tms whiff 9/10 balls 💀

[cyan locust]

Extra modes hella scuffed

[cyan sage]

false

is hard to carry noobs

try it

[tropic monolith]

Ye lol I don't doubt it

[dusky fiber]

nah he is right, if this happens to u it also happens in the opponents team, the one who adapts better wins, if u say u are 5 times better it should be easy to 2v1, which u cant

[tropic monolith]

It's very doable even when you just have a GC2 level

[dusky fiber]

yh doesnt take much

[cyan sage]

i do very well in gc2 games

[cyan locust]

I got one into GC in 8

[cyan sage]

but i cant play in this rank

[cyan locust]

ones on 6 in c3 rn

[dusky fiber]

yh depends who u playing with, if u have a higher person to play with its easier

[cyan locust]

I was playing with silvers and golds, extra modes ranks are messed up rn

Was gaining 60-80 per game only playing against bronze and silver players

[onyx basin]

Hit the ball

[cyan sage]

honestly idc

i just know i am gc2 level 💀 dont have to carry noobs to get there

[dusky fiber]

sounds like c2-c3 behavior

[cyan sage]

i win a lot of games in gc2

[cyan sage]

been gc in 2s since s6 and gc in 3s last season

and i am better than most gc1

if my tms are whiffing everything and own goaling that doesnt mean i belong there because they throw every game 💀

[dusky fiber]

then u are hard stuck and should maybe look at yourself more before your mates, maybe u rank up then, but what u do now is making excuses, wont get u far

[cyan locust]

I'm SSL and I've lost to GC1s, doesn't make me a GC 1 because of a few fluke games, beaten 1 pro, doesn't make me a pro

[cyan sage]

dont need to, i can compare myself to ppl in my actual rank and i know i am 4 ranks above them in skill

[dusky fiber]

u dont get how ranked works, but yh keep that attitude u will stay gc1 for the next few seasons also with that, not trying to front u, just change your mindset and u have it easier

[cyan locust]

Then find a better teammate, playing with your trashcan friends doesn't help you rank up

Otherwise it's just a skill issue

[cyan sage]

you 2 are probably that kind of tms 💀

[dusky fiber]

nah we are just all higher then u, thats why we know

[cyan sage]

yes, i can win in your games as well

gc3 is easier than champ

[dusky fiber]

aha

[cyan locust]

of course GC is easier than champ, thats a known fact

[cyan sage]

put me in a gc2-3 game

and i win it

[cyan locust]

But gcs are going to slam you if you play like a champ

[cyan sage]

i dont play like champ

[cyan locust]

You play like a GC and that's why you're stuck in gc

GC1 to be specific

[cyan sage]

lol ok i can share replays of my tms who never heard of rotations

so you 2 can shut up

and see their own goals

[cyan locust]

And you probably look just as stupid as them thinking you're playing well

[dusky fiber]

u sounds like the mate who is hard to play with, u think u are better then him whole time and also play like this, thats usually when people hit gc for the first time and think they are the best players on earth now, this just makes it hard to solo q, just try to adapt and not to force your playstyle too much, u will have it easier

[cyan locust]

You have to have an objective view of the game

Lmfao

[dusky fiber]

ssl 3 might be his real rank idk

[cyan locust]

probably a c2 player who got carried to GC tbh

[cyan sage]

i dont have to watch your opinions, i know i am far above my rank

[cyan locust]

Wins in GC because of braindead challenges that work

[cyan locust]

This attitude is why youre gc

[dusky fiber]

just a skill issue at this point

[cyan sage]

you are probably whiffing every shot 💀

it will change nothing, i hard carry every game

once i had 1.3k points in gc1 and still lost

[cyan locust]

hard carry and still hard stuck gc1

[cyan sage]

with a tm that had 100

[dusky fiber]

there is no point i guess, just let him stay in gc1 for the next seasons maybe at one point he will realize it

[cyan sage]

i even scored a triple reset in gc1 that game

my tm was doing nothing

[cyan locust]

So you're a ball chaser who blames his teammate by taking their shots

[dusky fiber]

most usless thing

[cyan sage]

because he didnt rotate ever

[cyan locust]

That's an excuse, you ball chase and put him out of rotation

[dusky fiber]

he is prob that guy who leaves his mate alone whole time and cant score, then he blames his mate why he looses the 2v1

[cyan locust]

Your bad rotations put him in bad spots, guarantee it

[cyan sage]

☠️

yes yes fr fr

[drowsy solar]

I can develop my personal mechanics in a straightfoward way but I don't understand how to learn teamwork

[cyan sage]

is not the same thing bozo

like in my case

[cyan locust]

Stop working on mechs and have someone help you with rotations, learn to play with not against your team

[drowsy solar]

It seems clear after years and years that your ability to play with your team matters 10x more than your personal skill.

[cyan sage]

i find gc2-3 easier than this because i know rotations and i know how to play the game

tms in my rank dont know it

[cyan locust]

Personal skill doesn't mean anything if you don't work as a team

[dusky fiber]

yh its true, adaptation is rlly key in solo q

[drowsy solar]

@cyan locust I'm autistic, I literally have a learning disability for working with other people.

[cyan sage]

then how come i win more in 500 rather than your "100" 💀

[drowsy solar]

Since they all come to conclusions naturally that make no sense to me because we think differently

[cyan sage]

math guru

[cyan locust]

You just have to work harder to learn then, it's not that you can't it's just you don't understand how, it's just a learning curve

[cyan sage]

i tried to reply to your non sense excuse me 💀

[drowsy solar]

Well if other people were internally consistent I could learn their patterns but normies don't think like that..

So I'm forever fucked

[cyan sage]

this is what something that is carried would say

bet ur bad 💀

[dusky fiber]

there are usually 2 stero types, eithger the chaser, then u play more passiv, or the passiv guy, then u can be more aggresiv, the higher u get, the more these stero types shift, but in geneal its like this, idk your rank tho

[cyan locust]

That's why you have to find a stack to play with, playing solo queue would be terrible for you in your case

[cyan sage]

for your rank

[drowsy solar]

@cyan locust So another area of life where normies have a permanent advantage because their social skills are better

[cyan locust]

I have some friends who would play with you, they're also on the spectrum

[cyan sage]

so getting gc undefeated would make no sense since ur ssl

u have 20 iq man fr

how did you survive this far

[drowsy solar]

That would be hella awesome

[cyan locust]

If I put you with a diamond 1s player, they would probably stomp you

[cyan sage]

you can, that's because you are ssl

if you were gc1, you'd be probably in diamond 💀

from your placements game

go undefeated to ssl, that means you deserve your rank

go undefeated to ssl on a new acc

if not that means u dont deserve ssl, this is what you told me about my rank

[drowsy solar]

I'm like in skill but I can't figure out how to coordinate with other people so I'm hardstuck at this level

[dusky fiber]

this whole arguzment is usless, while baked beans tires to argue with facts, aariggg just throws random personal things around himself like a little kid who u took away the toys, there is no point obv

[cyan sage]

ok, so u dont deserve ssl and got carried by using your logic that you applied on me, ok

[cyan locust]

Yeah this kid is literally just stupid with an ego

He wants help but won't take the help he's given then tries to argue that he's better than people who are actually better than him

[drowsy solar]

Which just makes it harder to find other people to play with

[cyan sage]

says the kid selling accs on rl as his main income 💀

[cyan locust]

Oh wow 12 year old insults, it hurts so badly

[dusky fiber]

not even 12 prob

[cyan locust]

Prob not

[cyan sage]

is funny

i stated a fact

you got angry, that means you are doing it

gottem

[cyan locust]

@cyan sage drop your tag, I wanna see if you're even a gc

[cyan sage]

how much do you earn a month from this

[dusky fiber]

sounds like his life doesnt go well and all the frustratioin needs to get out, maybe thats why this attitude is that way, rather feel sry

[cyan sage]

because you are a janitor 💀

talking about elementary school insults

[cyan locust]

@dusky gorge wrong channel

Go to trading

[cyan sage]

insane

boring

[drowsy solar]

If you say so

[cyan sage]

frfr

being pilot is ew

[cyan locust]

Ight I'm done arguing with a 12 year old who's hard stuck diamond, I'ma go grind out some 1s and try to get top 100 tonight

[cyan sage]

top 100 from bottom

man is gold in 1s and wants to grind top 100 unreal

and the winner is me

what was the point of ganking on me anyway 💀

tips for getting gc in snowday?

[cyan sage]

sup, would you like to give another tip

hi

What is a good way to train with bakkes mod or without for a silver 2 in solos while I'm banned from matchmaking for 24 hours because I accidentally queued for another game when my friend went online and I wanted to play against my friend and so I forfeited?

[plush harbor]

how to find a good enough tm8 in solo queue?!?!?!? 🙏😭

[cyan sage]

that's the neat part, you don't

[tacit quartz]

could someone give me some tips im not the best player

[plush harbor]

So real 😂

[plush harbor]

what rank

[tacit quartz]

i honestly dont know im diomond one but i queue with my champ friend then when i solo queue 2's because 3's is chaotic and 1's is only kickoffs but when i q 2's i find my teamates dont know how to rotate or areil that well

[cyan sage]

only smurfs are good players in soloq, the others just hope they get carried

2s and 3s are for premade with people close to your rank and that know what they are doing

if you want solo, go in 1s fr

[tacit quartz]

i can tell everyone i get in 2's hardly breaks triple digits

[cyan sage]

I asked what is a good way to train my mechanics because I'm banned from matchmaking for 24 hours

freeplay

alright ty

I can sort of air roll

[sly fable]

Practice air rolling.

There are alot of air rolling guides out there.

Oh, wait.

You're silver.

[cyan sage]

I can do it all I got to do is boost and hold e or q

but that's not what I want to practice

I want to practice saving goals and scoring

[sly fable]

This might sound goofy but, practice booming the ball with power and hitting the ball consistently, that alone can you take from silver to plat probably.

[cyan sage]

I just gotta stop chasing the ball

btw this is only for solos I don't play 2v2's or 3v3's like most players

[cyan locust]

you gotta just focus on the basics like power shots, clears, and defending your net

[cyan sage]

is there like a pack that I can use

[sly fable]

You're PC.

You can use workshop maps.

[cyan locust]

Any of the starter packs will help you improve slightly, I'm not PC so I can't recommend any

[cyan sage]

it's all good kozmak

[sly fable]

^

[cyan locust]

I would do the beginner and intermediate Ariel pack and the defensive pack to start off, then transition into the striker packs later on

Defense will win you 90% of your games in the low ranks because you can counter very easily and have open nets

[cyan sage]

also is there a way I can get used to not chasing the ball because that's the reason why I can't save goals

[sly fable]

Thats a mental thing. Have patience.

[cyan sage]

like for example if the opponent has posession of the ball do I just wait and then once the possesion is gone do I take the ball?

[sly fable]

Shadow defense.

[cyan locust]

It's just mindset of staying between the ball and your net at all times, something that comes naturally

Shadow defense packs work as well

[cyan sage]

also just another question how much hours do most silvers 2 in 1v1's have because I have only like 82h on the actual game

[cyan locust]

Honestly, I barely ever see silver players have more than 6 hours

But I don't really have friends that low in rank, they're all around champ range

[sly fable]

You should be gold or plat with this much hours, but its alright.

[sleek cedar]

Hey Everyone! Looking for some info on speed flips. Is there any difference between the directional air roll and traditional method? More specifically, are either method faster than the other?

[sly fable]

I am close to GC1 with 500 inmatch hours

[cyan locust]

Traditional is slightly faster than air roll

[cyan sage]

isn't silver 2 in solos equivalent to plat or gold in 2v2's and 3v3's if you only play solos and have that rank?

[cyan locust]

Silver in 1v1 is the same as silver in every other rank

Most people start out at gold level roughly

[sly fable]

Thats when you get higher with ranks.

Currently, silver is sliver.

[cyan sage]

yeah I know that but dosen't silvers in 1v1's have skills of gold in 2v2's and 3v3's?

[sleek cedar]

@cyan locust Have you seen any videos on the timing differences? I find the traditional more difficult, debating on putting in the time to perfect it since I have the DAR method down.

[sly fable]

What is the traditional method? The joystick one?

[cyan locust]

Diagonal flip cancel

[sly fable]

Ah

[cyan locust]

No air roll just the cancel

You won't notice it until you're mid into SSL imo, most people around GC and champ stick to air roll from what I've seen

But it's definitely faster, it's the difference between wave dash kickoff and non wave dash in 1s

[sly fable]

Wouldn't it make it half-assed without air roll?

[cyan locust]

You land perfectly if you do it right and you touch the ground sooner

Where as with the air roll, you're slightly higher in the air and you don't touch the ground as fast

[sly fable]

So, the air roll method is where you do a half assed cancel and continue it with air roll.

[cyan locust]

Yeah

Slightly slower but it's pretty hard to tell the difference outside of 1s

[sly fable]

Woah

It is though.

[heavy ridge]

Go look it up, it is

Low key L English

[sly fable]

Alright.

[heavy ridge]

hahahaha thanks to whoever reported him

that was so funny LMAO

[sly fable]

He got banned again, i assume?

[heavy ridge]

yeah he got banned

[sly fable]

What'd he do the first time?

[sleek cedar]

Just read something that said with the DAR you are at a 45 degree angle vs the traditional at 35 degree. The traditional like you said Kozmak is a quicker flip. Also says you can move you stick in the opposite direction to put you at a 35 degree angle while using DAR method. Have you heard of something like that? I’m thinking either way the traditional method is still faster. @cyan locust

[heavy ridge]

Well he I assume he got banned from another server b y the guy he tagged

[sly fable]

Bruh, i thought you knew him

[heavy ridge]

I did not, but i just felt like calling him out

[sly fable]

Bro jumped straight into the action.

[heavy ridge]

Kinda, maybe that was immature from me but come on who goes tagging someone like that, just dm em

[cyan locust]

Dunno the specifics, I just know it feels faster to do traditional over the air roll

[sly fable]

As he said, you wont feel any difference until alot later in the game.

[cyan locust]

I just go off of whatever is most comfortable and most consistent for me

And you can't wave dash kickoff with air roll which also makes me think it's faster for traditional

[sly fable]

If i backfljp instead of double jump, should i increase or decrease the dodge deadzone?

[sleek cedar]

Yeah, that makes sense. I’m in champ now so I’m trying to really nail down the important mechanics. I appreciate the info!

[cyan locust]

Adjust dodge dead zone to where you don't backflip often but forward flip when you need to

Also remember to hold back before you jump the first time, makes it easier to backflip less

[sleek cedar]

I decreased mine slowly over time as I got used to it. You don’t want it to low otherwise it’ll stop reading the direction.

[cyan locust]

You want it around the 60 ish range imo, gives you about the perfect range of flips to double jumps

But in the end it's personal preference

[sly fable]

I used 75 deadzone back a few months ago, and i lowered it but can't find a balance since.

[spare oxide]

i always miss most of the times the ball when its on the wall but is not touching it 😂 what to do lol

[spare oxide]

go back 75 maybe then

or go into free play and try all the settings

[sly fable]

Nah, it started to feel weird, that's why i changed it.

I'm gonna try and test 60-65 more and see what happens.

[plush harbor]

true u get called a smurf a lot in c1 😭🙏 but im just c2 its not smurfing technically

[sly fable]

C1 are diamonds but worse.

[carmine lily]

Can anyone coach freestyling? I have mechanics I'm

[cyan sage]

Anyone tips for C2? Im hardstuck

[silk fern]

same

[dusky fiber]

in general: try rotating more around small pads to stay more in rotation, adapting to your teammate is key if u solo q, the one who adapts better wins the game, so if u loose dont blame mates rather try watching yourself what u could have done to prevent it, in general if u want to get better at 2s playing 1s is also an option as u learn much there like shadow defense, flicks, kick offs, etc. that is not necassary for yet but in general

[cyan sage]

alr ty I'll try It

[cyan sage]

@gritty oriole

[gritty oriole]

yeah?

[plush harbor]

IKR one time i found this 1 guy in solo q we had such a nice chemistry, we partied up i went from c1 div4 to c2 div3 NOT A SINGLE LOSS

we were rly good tg with passes n game sense

[void dome]

lf for someone to teach me how to get pro am big nub D: dm if can help ty

[cyan sage]

Hey, I'm looking for someone who can help me do an good set up for an air dribble.
I'm correctly around 1500 in 2s and I do have the mechanics to air dribble from bounce of ground but just not off the wall. I did look at many yt vid that explains it although I'm a big dummy and can't understand it 😅
Would appreciate if someone could help me

[sly plover]

yo, is there anyone that could help me with air dribbles
I have an alright setup and just can't figure out how to keep the ball in line with my car

[cyan sage]

i can explain easy peasy

[grave meadow]

how can i learn continuous air roll? I can adjust my car by stopping air roll for a split second but i cant get movement down while continuously spinning, tried pillars and rings and just freeplay

Can I use this in online play? A: No. This cannot be used in casual, ranked, or private matches. first thing from their FAQ lol

i suggest you read through their faq https://bakkesplugins.com/plugins/view/121

go to the faq

it tells you everything

[summer pecan]

any tips for 2s?

im plat

[versed rapids]

Hi I need a coach
I wanna know wich mistakes I made.
And how I can fix them

[plush meadow]

anyone here practice/train more then they play casual or ranked ?

[solid loom]

finally gc1 again

[delicate shuttle]

yeah

[delicate shuttle]

did you get help?

[cyan sage]

No yet

[delicate shuttle]

dm

[final steppe]

How tf do I stop missing open shots by an inch/ cm

[signal lintel]

If you send me a clip I can help

[lone pawn]

so when im learnign air roll left hte only thing throwing me off is turning while my car is backwards how can i laern how to change that

[feral sail]

That’s just something to practice on.your shots will develop through experience. Try doing some shooting packs

[wind wedge]

I am trying to get better at 1v1s Mainly i find my kickoff flawed (D3 in duels) anyone can give me some tips? Preferably have an mic

[lone pawn]

how can i learn to air roll left when my car is facing backwards

[delicate shuttle]

it comes down to reps and musclememory

[lone pawn]

reps?

@delicate shuttle whats reps

[delicate shuttle]

repetitions. I found that holding down air roll continuously whilst playing rings and moving my joystick helped me the most

[lone pawn]

ok

[brisk sentinel]

Hi my name is Daniel can you reach me how to air dribble

[delicate shuttle]

also try flying backwards a lot

[brisk sentinel]

I play one nentendo

[lone pawn]

what rings map

[delicate shuttle]

doesnt really matter, its just easier than freeplay because it forces you to make awkward turns faster

[sly plover]

i cant send a clip im not on mobile

[lone pawn]

well how would i do the 2nd level on speed rings

[delicate shuttle]

you'll have to figure that one out, or just try lethamyrs rings, they're easier in the start of the map

[lone pawn]

so start of with an easy rings map?

[keen forge]

Hey. So im gold 3 been for about 2 years pretty much stuck. Im on ps. But what would i need to work on to help make that push to plat1. During placements last season i was able to keep up with plats me n duo went against.

[left maple]

Common sense would say yes

[keen forge]

Duo placed plat 2 n i got gold 3 which was weird as we played all 10 games together n lost/won same amount of games

[lone pawn]

its liek the 2nd level in every rings map has a weird turn i cant do

[lavish sky]

someone who can consistently flip reset dm me and explain how tf i dont get my flips pls

[eternal plover]

You need momentum into the ball

That was my issue

[void temple]

do I need to change my settings to improve? or can I get better at the settings I am already using, cuz I made it too c3 with these settings and I’ve used them for about 3 years now

[long plover]

to be ssl is very easy

[lavish sky]

im whacking myself into it

[eternal plover]

Your what?🥵

My bad wrong server

[versed rapids]

Hi I'm looking for a coach
I wanna know my game mistakes and maybe how I can fix them I'm D1 and wanna get better

If anyone is bored or wanna help msg me

[solid fulcrum]

what are ur current settings

[void temple]

@solid fulcrum default settings, except my directional air roll left is on L1, and directional air roll right is on R1

[solid fulcrum]

put powerslide on one of those

i have pretty close to default settings and im like gc2

[void temple]

oh okay bet, so I can put powerslide on L1?

[solid fulcrum]

sure

better then pressing square

[void temple]

okay, cuz I do struggle with powerslide recoveries tbh

[solid fulcrum]

yeah, with this its much easier

[void temple]

okay okay, thank you!

[solid fulcrum]

@void temple you can change your keybinds to whatever you like, as long as your comfortable with it

i already answered this question

what mechs tho

[void temple]

@solid fulcrum oh okay, thank you cuz im really comfortable with these other then powerslide

[solid fulcrum]

another thing you can do is like, change boost to L1/R1 and switch airroll left/right to square, or change one of your directional air roll to normal air roll, left and right air roll isnt really needed and normal air roll is better for small adjustments and recoveries imo.

theres a lot you can do

what rank are you

you dont need any of that then

for now all you need is half flips wave dashes a decent aerial

and learn how to hit the ball hard

if you can do all of those youll win

[pine garnet]

not even

hit the ball at good speed and good angle into there net

if you do all that and still cant win im pretty sure you cannot do all those things

[solid fulcrum]

nothing you can do about that, just move on to the next game

[grand hull]

I would focus car control, ball striking, and field awareness. don't ball chase, support behind the play and cycle accordingly

[solid fulcrum]

also, if u do all that and lose

[pine garnet]

not good enough im pretty sure

[solid fulcrum]

you probably suck at rotations and stuff

[solid fulcrum]

[void temple]

okayy okayy

[solid fulcrum]

i cant tell if double Y means ur annoyed

[void temple]

no, I just do that

lol

[solid fulcrum]

yeah it can come off as “just stop talking now” you know

[void temple]

yeah, but it’s just a habit of mine

[vast mesa]

anybody down to show me something in private? im having trouble with getting all wheels on flip reset maybe its my set up?

[solid fulcrum]

send me a clip in dm

[sly sequoia]

what is probably the best way to practice my aerials and car control in the air

[lethal geyser]

How can i write in looking for group when i write lf duos plat 1-2 nothing comes

[whole owl]

type /L in #looking-for-group then fill out what you're looking for.

[hardy radish]

Can someone teach me how to rotate better

[mighty elbow]

1v2 in diamond. i lost 1-5 but with 7 saves and they stared demo chasing. should i have done better or are they trash

[rugged gulch]

Flicks, Power Shots, airdribbles, aerials

[signal lintel]

Wavedash, dribbles, and maybe fast aerial. Speedflip helps if you can do it right consistently, same for air dribble but that's way harder

[cyan sage]

Hey, can anyone teach me on how to get to gc (im c2)?

[signal lintel]

@cyan sage heres some ideas

[cyan sage]

thx

[signal lintel]

👍

[still cape]

say i havent played for a month and i was gc1- would i be considered a gc still or c2-c3

[wet dragon]

Depends on how rusty you are

If you keep all skills then you will stay gc1, else you will fall @still cape

[mortal quail]

If your rank says gc
Your gc
If its says c2, you are c2.
If you haven't played just say unranked as cope

[shell scroll]

what about me

aight

[late ermine]

anyone got some good tips for floor to air dribbles

ik i mean like when and when not to

[shell scroll]

batman would know that too

[late ermine]

ofc i know im just seing if you guys know

[shell scroll]

i know, but it usually goes unsaid

[sly fable]

I have a question about flip resets, why is it that i get pushed far down when i get the flip? (if that makes sense)

[pine garnet]

your hitting it while the ball is dropping

atleast thats the reason most of the time

[shell scroll]

if you don’t get the flip, you’re not making contact with all wheels at the same time on the ball

[pine garnet]

That was not the question xD

[sly fable]

But i get the flip.

[sly fable]

Lets try.

[shell scroll]

i know that was t the question

[pine garnet]

else send a clip of you going for a reset and i can see whats wrong

[shell scroll]

i’m saying if he gets pushed down and also doesn’t get the flip etc.

[sly fable]

Alr

[cyan sage]

Hey, can anyone teach me on how to get to gc (im c2)? (dont have a mic)

[unkempt charm]

Boom ball backboard, wait for opponent to miss read the bounce. Score

[pine garnet]

works c2 not gc

[unkempt charm]

Worked for me when I did a challenge trying to reach gc without using boost

[pine garnet]

intresting

[cyan sage]

okay I`ll try

[pine garnet]

all they do is camp backboard so i would have no idea how

[sly fable]

@pine garnet check DM's.

Oh wait

Its still uploading.

[unkempt charm]

Doesn’t work all the time but just hitting the ball very hard and accurately can take you a long way

[cyan sage]

works in 2s?

[unkempt charm]

Yes, but also try and stay back more and let your tm8 go crazy. You’ll be surprised how many gc’s make mistakes

[cyan sage]

okay thanks

[signal lintel]

Then just don't use it in ranked until you can do it very well consistently

[stone lichen]
