gameplay-tips

[mortal quail]

If you purposefully go under then spin, your too low

[twilit dagger]

the main goal is to land your wheels on the ball

[hardy pelican]

So on top of it?

[twilit dagger]

yes

[twilit dagger]

neither, more on the side if i can say so

[hardy pelican]

Alr I’ll try it

And I also kinda have bad air control that might be another reason..lol

[wooden magnet]

Currently stuck in plat 1 anyone have any tips?

[hardy pelican]

Wait my wheels touched the ball but I didn’t get the reset

[mortal quail]

The direct center of your car is how you get reset, not the wheels

It just so happens you touch with 4 wheels to get the center

[hardy pelican]

Ima send the clip one sec

[twilit dagger]

at plat level i'm say try hitting the ball without missing and shoting in the right dirrection. maybe learn rotation, but it's been i while since i play ranked or competitivly

[wooden magnet]

thanks

[twilit dagger]

is it much easier to start thinking of touching with your 4 wheels ?

[hardy pelican]

I DID IT

[mortal quail]

If you think about 4 wheels, it's much easier to think about

But touching with 4 wheels doesn't get the reset

[hardy pelican]

I mean I completely missed the actual shot..BUT I GOT RHE RESET

[mortal quail]

Nice

[twilit dagger]

I know you can get the reset if the center of the car touch the ball but i don't know what is the best way of thinking

[mortal quail]

Think of it as catching the ball with your hand. You wanna use your full hand, same way you wanna use the full car and it's wheels

Werid way I know but

Found it works for beginners

[twilit dagger]

nah nah you got a good thinking there

[hardy pelican]

Whats the best car for flip reset?

[viral solar]

If anyone is interested I coach for Free, I'm a Season 9 SSL

[hardy pelican]

Free??

[mortal quail]

Dominus, but any car works
Also he isn't ssl

[hardy pelican]

Oh lmfao

I’m using dominus I just have bad control😭

[mortal quail]

Takes practice

Took me awhile to get it down

Even still I'm not great at it

[hardy pelican]

Well that’s the thing I’ve been playing for awhile

Like I started playing in 2020 bc the pandemic n I was bored

And I managed to hit gold one time

Mostly silver

But I took a break for like another 2 years so now I’ve been playing a few months and now I’m plat

[rapid hawk]

tips for ones anyone

[hardy pelican]

Oh also Is it bad that I don’t use directional air roll

[viral solar]

yes i am lmao

stat track me

imagine throwing shade or hating on me just cuz I do coaching for free
like I'm not even trying to come at you for charging people money or trash ur name so give me some respect and not slander my name before making false accusations about me
I'd expect more professionalism from an Official RL coach

[hardy pelican]

Well then I mean could u teach me directional air roll??

[viral solar]

work on ur ground gameplay, first thing I tell people is you have to work on the things you struggle the most with
ur priority shouldn't be how many flip resets you can do and a bunch of aerial mechs

[hardy pelican]

How do ppl reset with the front of their car if ur supposed to hit center

[viral solar]

?

[shy ether]

get better

[viral solar]

u have to hit the center of the underneath of the car to get a reset

[mortal quail]

I've got nothing but complaints from you

Also I don't charge for coaching so idk where you got that from

[viral solar]

what are you even talking about

complaints?!?!

[viral solar]

I assumed all u RL coaches charged

tell me though what complaints? ur making opened end accusations about me, I've seen no complaints. If someone complained its prob cuz I blocked them because they weren't serious about coaching or were trolling me and my friends

[shy ether]

in depth coaching is like 90% charged, but like simple coaching is 99% free (some actually charge lol)

[viral solar]

I do in depth

[mortal quail]

I don't, never have never will
Your also promoting your discord server which is against TOS here

[viral solar]

what do you mean? im not promoting my server

[mortal quail]

Most people only require simple coaching anyway

[viral solar]

I'm simply just stating I'll help people I'm not some bot account trying to promote a server

[hazy rivet]

azel does good coaching for free i can verify

[viral solar]

^

[shy ether]

ye

[viral solar]

unless people want to improve fast, you can't go in depth to explain rotations and why playing certain positions is better than others without going in depth

[mortal quail]

Are you not asking them to dm so you link them your server

[viral solar]

its true simple coaching can help people for the majority, but its not going to improve their skills fast

[mortal quail]

If so thats against tos as I said

[viral solar]

seems to me like ur pressed on trying to get me banned when I'm not promoting anything

[mortal quail]

Crazy assumptions since I haven't even reported you

[woven linden]

May I ask why I am stuck in gold?

I feel that it could be my teammates

[hardy pelican]

He def doesn’t charge lol he helped me out a lot and I just met him

[shy ether]

drive straight, you will get ssl by doing that fr

[mortal quail]

We both don't charge....

What is even happening

[woven linden]

really?

[shy ether]

yh that was how i got ssl in 1s

[hardy pelican]

No sorry I was talking about the text earlier I didn’t scroll down lol

[woven linden]

no mechanics necessary?

[viral solar]

Its against TOS to directly plug and try promoting it directly into the server otherwise you'd have to ban every person in the Content Promotion Section for Promoting their low tier esports org to join

[hardy pelican]

What the hell are you saying😭

[viral solar]

u honestly don't need crazy mechs just basics

[shy ether]

in 1s kinda not, you will need basic mechs (wave dash, half flips, especially speed flips), but just game sense, rotations, good defense (like shadow defense), etc

[viral solar]

^

[hardy pelican]

What do I need wave dash for

[stoic cairn]

what rank are you in ones?

[hardy pelican]

And idk if I speed flip correctly

[mortal quail]

Its against TOS in this channel specifically.
You cannot post server links or dm someone so you can sent them a link from here

[woven linden]

Silver

[hardy pelican]

I think I tried it one time and my car just kept flipping

[mortal quail]

In content promotion is allowed since that's the point of it.

[hardy pelican]

How long u been playing?

[mortal quail]

Same as paid coaching isn't allowed here either

[woven linden]

600+ hours

[viral solar]

im not promoting

[hardy pelican]

600? Ur only silver??

[mortal quail]

This is promoting

[hardy pelican]

Wait wait I might’ve been doing it wrong

[stoic cairn]

well if you are silver in 1's and gold in 2's, it means your teammates are doing something

[viral solar]

promoting people to talk in this chat maybe lmao or even dm me about questions, no where did i state to "dm me to join server" or dm at all

[hardy pelican]

Ima look up a wave dash tut

[stoic cairn]

which means it's most likely something in your game missing

[mortal quail]

Its promoting....
Idk why you trying to go around it lol

[hardy pelican]

Yea Ik but idk how to actually do it

[shy ether]

#content-promotion for coaching promotion (even if its free)

[viral solar]

PROMOTING WHAT?!? i didnt even ask for dms

[stoic cairn]

when you are about to land on the back wheels (they should hit the ground first), you double jump foward

[viral solar]

u were the one throwing false accusations calling me a fake ssl

[stoic cairn]

just as you are about to land

[mortal quail]

I've gotten plenty of complaints from you not being SSL (nor free)
Either its true or not idk hence why I didn't say anything besides that

[viral solar]

lmaooooo

[shy ether]

you don't need to double jump, just click on the button 1 time

[viral solar]

stat track me then

[stoic cairn]

i remember someone trying wave dashing and they didn't use their double jump foward when they were about to land, which if you do won't work

[hardy pelican]

Nvm I don’t understand it

[viral solar]

and u saw people earlier vouching for my free coaching

[stoic cairn]

when you are about to land you use the second jump

[left maple]

My word

[vocal cloak]

need help

[shy ether]

👍

[vocal cloak]

for mechinhing

[mortal quail]

I did so I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and leaving it

[viral solar]

thanks

[left maple]

Think spelling wouldn't go a miss 😂

[viral solar]

im not honestly trying to have beef with you

[mortal quail]

Its easy to tell when someone Is a fake coach, and you seem to know what you are talking about

[left maple]

I jest

[viral solar]

i just dont want bad blood and shade being thrown

[mortal quail]

No worries, I was under the assumption you were a fake coach

[viral solar]

nah bro i have 8,335 hours in this game lol

[shy ether]

8k hours is nothing lol, you can hv 8k hours but still gold

[left maple]

I've got 500

[viral solar]

lol true, i met someone gc1 with 5k

[shy ether]

💀

[cyan sage]

im a plat 7 div 14 and i can double reset

[mortal quail]

I mean, that's not that bad

[cyan sage]

let me live me life 💀

[viral solar]

not terrible but it is on the higher end of the spectrum

[hardy pelican]

When i “wave dash” my car just like goes forward like 2 inches and doesn’t move after

Or it flips

[stoic cairn]

mind sending a clip somewhere?

spectre? yeah that decal was cool

[mortal quail]

Beef?

[stoic cairn]

who's hurting these people

[noble scroll]

how do i use the lfg shii confusing ...

[hardy pelican]

Huh

[hardy pelican]

In a little bit

Wait I can send clips to this section right

[stoic cairn]

If you want some tips i can help you don't need to be that upset

[hardy pelican]

Oh I was just saying it doesn’t move me forward a lot

[stoic cairn]

on the highlights maybe

[hardy pelican]

Then I’ll just dm u in like 20 mins bc I got off

[stoic cairn]

that works too

[hollow harness]

If anyone needs help bc they are hard stuck or just need help ___<diamond I can help

[stoic cairn]

Well they were chatting about someone being a fake ssl coach here, and that wasn't me

i was one of the few actually trying to help people here, and i never mentioned being ssl too, probably a misunderstanding there

[stuck thunder]

fake ssl coach is azel, I think he coaches, but he isnt ssl

He has his tracker linked, so unless 6 mans is giving out official ranks called "ssl" that I havent heard about, idk

[stoic cairn]

well that doesn't have to do anything with me, not sure how im catching the smoke here

[stuck thunder]

if 99/100 ssl coaches are found to be fake, your reputation isnt going to be the exception, unsure how you're unsure how you're catching smoke 💀

[stoic cairn]

again, not sure where it's said i was ssl

i was answering some people then i was called a clown, but that's cool

you have a good day

thank you for joining, always good to have new people in there

[old jungle]

anyone champ and above can you dm me i have a few questions about ranking up. im d3 right now and hardstuck thanks

[stoic cairn]

ah man, too bad you didn't see the intro tab in there, it had some of my grand champion titles

i was being ironic my friend

i have a tab there explaining why i made a server and all my ranks, but i guess i'm still a "clown"

[stuck thunder]

He hasnt ended SSL in the past 8 seasons.

Zip it up when you're done with it

[stoic cairn]

what's even the point of everyone arguing here? even if i was plat and wanted to help a gold, there's no issue with that

at least it would be helping

[stuck thunder]

questionable, last time a plat coached me he told me to learn flip resets and air dribbles

[stoic cairn]

very questionable, but at least it's a try

[hardy pelican]

Well that’s just one guy yk I’m not good myself but plats are usually hard stuck

[stuck thunder]

that shit made no sense

[stoic cairn]

what are you 2 even talking about

[stuck thunder]

he got mad I said Azel isnt ssl, now he's talking about my dead mom

[merry wren]

Be very punishing

[topaz gulch]

Like how

[fierce trout]

anyone mind doing a replay review for me? been plat for like a year at this point. (3s)

[opaque isle]

Idk, play quite a bit and try to figure out their mistakes first, then learn how to punish

[topaz gulch]

Ok

[opaque isle]

Step 1. Figure out what the mistake they are making is step 2. Figure out how to punish

[topaz gulch]

What is punish

[sly fable]

To capitalize on their mistake.

[lunar lotus]

[autumn iris]

Idek fam😭

I lost all my items

[lethal dragon]

[sly fable]

How is that even possible 💀

Your data is saved on your account, not the Playstation.

[autumn iris]

I have no clue fam I just opened the game back and it just took all my shit

[sly fable]

Try reseting, maybe?

[autumn iris]

Na it said all mh data was deleted

[sly fable]

That's bizarre.

First time i heard of this problem.

[autumn iris]

I had over 1k in items on that account shit is crazy

[sly fable]

That's very unfortunate.

[autumn iris]

I looked all over the internet to find out wtf happend and there’s no explanation

[sly fable]

Because this never happens.

Try contacting rl support.

[autumn iris]

I did bruh

They said they can’t do anything

Because it automatically deleted all my data

From my account

But my accounts level is the same and my rank

But eveything else is gone

Wait wtf

[sly fable]

[autumn iris]

They fixed it

Thank god

[sly fable]

That's great to hear!

[autumn iris]

I was goin crazy

[frigid thunder]

will anyone watch my replay for free and give like a tip or 2

[rain crown]

89 hours in my experience is abouve average or average for silver practice dribbling ball on your head for flicks, shadowing and just playing the game for game sense

[drifting knoll]

Ive played for 241 hours and my peak is champ 2 am I doing good for my hours?

[frigid thunder]

wth

Bro the average is like 1200

[sly fable]

In match hours right?

[drifting knoll]

Idk its just when you go to ur profile and it says time played thats what I looked at

[sly fable]

Ahh

[topaz flicker]

That's hours on main screen & loading into games too

[sly fable]

We count the all in game hours (training, afk, etc..)

[topaz flicker]

Not just hours put into matches

[sly fable]

Are you ps?

[topaz flicker]

It says I have 1700 hrs on RL but there's a good 300 put into title screen & whatnot

[drifting knoll]

I was ps for a little then switched to pc

[sly fable]

Ok, nvm.

[light pasture]

anyone here, who could watch me play either in a match or in a replay to help me improve and get out of diamond?

i don’t want to be carried, i want to acc learn the skills myself yk

[fleet talon]

@charred dirge

[jade badge]

im 66th in the world in 1's anyone wants advice?

https://rocketleague.tracker.network/rocket-league/profile/psn/radosin75/overview

[flint plaza]

what is the best drills for improving ball control

[jade badge]

tbh i just hop into free play and practice dribbling over and over

[flint root]

are there any training maps you would recommend?

[flint plaza]

I have good dribbling but my catches are slow for ranked matches
also when I setup power shots I feel like it's about luck to get the timing right and the angle
also my powerslides
I started training them and got better
but whenever I use them in matches I mess up

[abstract obsidian]

Do anyone have tips for ranking up from plat

Long type

[jade badge]

its just ur positioning
try to practice rotation

[jade badge]

basically ur just naturally really bad

[abstract obsidian]

😦

[jade badge]

jk

[abstract obsidian]

But how

Ok

[flint plaza]

analys your replays to get to know what to improve and focus on

for me I see plats struggle with shooting consistency, speed and patience(decision making)

[jade badge]

https://tenor.com/view/twirly-boi-jugssy-scored-car-spinning-turbo-gif-17388450

me playing ab8

[abstract obsidian]

Go to that program

[flint root]

Do you have any training map codes to get better at aerial shots?

[abstract obsidian]

Your ssl rad

Can I have settings pls

[flint plaza]

I bet you can't do well with his settings especially sensitivity
settings are preference
unless you don't bind some important things like dir air roll and have bad camera settings

[abstract obsidian]

Well I do have bad cakes

Settings

[flint plaza]

watch a yt vid on settings
spookluke explains them in detail

[abstract obsidian]

Which one

About his camera settings

[flint plaza]

not just his
he explains what each setting does and what range is recommended for it

[abstract obsidian]

So can I have link cause I don’t know the vid name of the stuff what he tell you about

[flint plaza]

sure
will dm you

[abstract obsidian]

Ok

[light pasture]

anyone here, who could watch me play either in a match or in a replay to help me improve and get out of diamond?

[tawdry pebble]

Any tips for 3s cause I mostly play 2s

[flint plaza]

be fast
make a quick play and rotate so you don't confuse your team
but patient so you don't dive/chalenge when u shouldn't and can't recover

in 3s it's rly important to focus on reading the play
and manage your boost (you can watch your replays and see how much you use boost when you shouldn't and how much you miss small pads)

[tawdry pebble]

Ohhhhh I’m only plat 2

[viscid quest]

just dont waste the ball i suppose

[tawdry pebble]

I’m diamond in 2s just bad with other game modes

[cyan sage]

Learn to control the ball, like flicking etc

[tawdry pebble]

I’ve been working on those and keeping control

[turbid carbon]

i need help with air roll left on playstation

[cyan sage]

Air roll control is very difficult at first

But with time and practice it’ll get easier and more fluent as you go

[fierce trout]

can anyone do a replay review for me? been plat for like a year. (pc)

[turbid carbon]

yea I'm having trouble going directions of which way to go

[rustic gull]

@tribal sleet

[tawdry pebble]

I just changed my boost to left bumper any tips

[fervent wadi]

change it back.

[tawdry pebble]

Why

[stuck thunder]

change it back

[cyan sage]

what else is bound to left bumper

[round thunder]

why dis man gotta do me like that

he litteraly put his tires on me

and my tires

trying to send the image

[cyan sage]

who

[grand citrus]

is left and right bumper good directional air roll binds

[cyan sage]

sure

[round thunder]

dm me

[grand citrus]

what is the best thing to practic to get out of diamond i can hit clean fliop resets but not enough to get back the miss saves by my tm8\

[round thunder]

so i can show you the picture

[remote canopy]

Plat, tip?

[cyan sage]

no

[sturdy spoke]

any one need play

[cyan sage]

i need some to help me get better

[dusky fiber]

2 things, 1. try to get consistent with powershots on target, if u learn that out of various positions u gonna score much, 2. try not chasing behind the ball all time and try to play more passiv in some scenarious

[dusky fiber]

what do u need?

[cyan sage]

im just too bad

i have been hard stuck in gold

for 1 year

cant get out

[dusky fiber]

. @cyan sage

what would u say is the issue?

[cyan sage]

im bad at shooting and have almost 0 game sence

[dusky fiber]

eeveryone in gold has no game sense so all good, with shooting at the end its just about practise, if u practise it and get better u will easy get to plat, but def takes time

[cyan sage]

ok thx so much

[cloud root]

I need help on how the hell im supposed to get better

[mortal quail]

Using your resources like freeplay, packs, rewatching your replays, looking at youtube videos
And of course just playing

[agile remnant]

Plat tips

?

[cloud root]

I do all of those and I don’t see any way to get out of play

Plat

[tepid trail]

Pay attention to your gameplay as 2nd man. Make sure you allow your tm8 enough space to work while still being relevant in case he wants to play to you.

[mortal quail]

Plat: get better at defending and mastering stuff you learned in gold. Honestly stop trying to aerial for every ball, use your judgement to decide if you should aerial or not. Learn backpost rotations and hitting the ball off backboard. Should be said that dont go for air dribbles or ceiling shots idc if you are consistent with them. Playing smart and reading the play will allow you to rank up

[cyan sage]

cry

[odd topaz]

Looking for private

Coach who has free time

[teal igloo]

how do i break through high c3 to gc1?

[hollow knoll]

same question for me ^

[cyan sage]

win

[hazy rivet]

arent u 66th in 2s

[rugged tundra]

Ay here's another game tip don't take like 4 months breaks from the game

I did and I dropped 3 ranks

I was like d1

Now I'm plat2

[cyan sage]

Heres a better tip. Dont be bad

[rugged tundra]

Ok blud

Just sayin I haven't played in like 17 months

Just felt like rocket league was boring

So guess I'm on the grind again

[spare oxide]

i just got into champ but wtf im trash

[earnest robin]

yo

use demos and bumps to your advantage

diamond is when physical play starts to ramp up

because people dont see it as cringe or “no skill” anymore in diamond

demos and bumps can lead to free goals

[cyan sage]

thats why ur in champ

[cyan sage]

no it doesn't

[earnest robin]

kinda does man

[cyan sage]

bruh hitting the ball at all leads to free goals in diamond.. diamonds cant hit the bal

[earnest robin]

thats old diamond lobbies

[cyan sage]

no

even now diamond trash

[earnest robin]

well im sorry your a high gc

like damn

relax

[cyan sage]

i am just gotta stop ya'll from thinking u guys can hit the ball

false ego's

[earnest robin]

your one to talk about egos

[cyan sage]

🙂

[marble ridge]

Imma be honest champs can’t hit the ball either tbh

[cyan sage]

exactly..

nice can gc's

or gc2's

[spare oxide]

i mean in diamond i was scoring and doing some 1v2 now in champ i cant do shit

@cyan sage played like 6 games im back to diamond

[marble ridge]

I can’t hit the ball either 😮‍💨

[cyan sage]

ur just bad

[spare oxide]

yes ty

[spare oxide]

ure really a nice person

[earnest robin]

i can drive

[cyan sage]

ty

[honest notch]

Physical game doesn’t really amp up I’m diamond

[cyan sage]

thats what im saying ya'll cant hit the ball in plat or diamond

or champ

[mortal quail]

i mean, statstically speaking, demos do go up in diamond, but not by a lot

[cyan sage]

shh ero

[honest notch]

All you really need to get to Gc is recoveries, catches, and basic aerials

[cyan sage]

wrong all u need to get gc is have the game installed

[honest notch]

Your rank defines how well and fast you can do those three things

[honest notch]

Wrong again all you need to get to Gc is one brain cell

[cyan sage]

no u need 1 brain cell for gc2 not gc1

[honest notch]

Right

[mental raven]

how do i do a good aerial and how to turn direction mid aerial?

[vivid imp]

@sage sail

[sage sail]

waddu[

[tough pecan]

Watch what your saying your also shit

[cyan sage]

ik im shit :/

[cyan sage]

i dont need to watch anything

[rugged tundra]

Bro I know. I use demos everytime in ones. That's how I got to plat 1 on ones. I took a 7 months break after reaching d 1 div 4 so I know what I'm doin

I've been diamond but yes demos are very useful best on a 2 on 1 situation

1v1

Bro my peaks were plat 3 in threes. D1 in 2s and play 1 on ones I just haven't played in 5 months I essentially quit playing the game after season 9 I think or like mid december

I'm just getting back into the game because it's the only good game out rn no new good games have been released there ain't nothin to do but play rocket league and play sports

Ive been playing basketball since I got bored of games

Tryna get better

[cyan sage]

Demos are super useful in Diamond cause nobody in Diamond, including myself don't know how to dodge the demo without losing either traction or position.

[rugged tundra]

Eh just double jump

Or jump

[cyan sage]

That loses traction though, especially if the ball is coming to the net.

[rugged tundra]

True

Welp

I have good news and bad news

Bad news im stuck in plat 2 now

Good news im playing a fun game

[cyan sage]

Lower ranks are just more fun tbh I've had so many good times in gold and plat.

[rugged tundra]

I know it's just when there toxic it gets unfun

But who cares it's just a game basketball more important anyway

That's why toxicity don't get to me

[cyan sage]

Good news is that the toxic players in lower ranks suck so all you do is demo

[cyan sage]

Fr

[rugged tundra]

Like if your being toxic in plat your the dumb one. Your in plat you think you have the right to talk

Like get to champ before you talk

Like you feel me

So their what a saves don't mstter

[cyan sage]

Honestly, not even champs should be talking. There's so many people who are still way better.

[rugged tundra]

I mean well only like 0.1 percent of rocket league players are like gc so not a lot actually

[cyan sage]

Regular champ is still 7-10%

[rugged tundra]

Bro

That's 10% still

I'd say get to c3 and then you have a right to talk trash

[cyan sage]

Eh, I'd say GC2. That's when players can be considered consistently good at the game. C3 are just diamonds who can rotate

[mortal quail]

gc2s are still horribe
just gc1s with better mechs

[rugged tundra]

And do triple resets in training

[earnest robin]

If gc2s are horrible

Aren't ssls barely good

[cyan sage]

True that, just compared to a majority of the player base, but in the grand scheme of RL, they're still garbage

[mortal quail]

the gap between Gc2 and SSL is like gold-gc1

[rugged tundra]

Blud if gc1s are bad that makes the entirety of rocket league players literal trash and they should throw themselves in the dumpster except for ssl

[mortal quail]

gc3 is getting there
SSL is good, then pros

[mortal quail]

yes

maybe not throw themselves

[earnest robin]

keyword maybe

[cyan sage]

And the gap between Low SSL & Pro SSL isn't that between like Plat to GC?

[mortal quail]

ye

[rugged tundra]

Blud I don't get it we ain't talking about pros and ssl bro were talking about like casual players I guess

We ain't tryhards but I get your point

[earnest robin]

no one likes casual players

[mortal quail]

wouldnt matter who we talking about, if diamonds think they are good, they gonna get humbled real quick

[rugged tundra]

No cap

[cyan sage]

Fr.

[rugged tundra]

Just let them feel good about their accomplishments tho it's just a game I felt good for making it to diamond but I still know there is an even longer way to go

[earnest robin]

I'm diamond and i deserve ssl because I can jump!1!1!1+1!1- random 10 yr old

[mortal quail]

and good for you, but fullly expect people to berate you for it

[earnest robin]

I just got a fresh cut

Barber did me perfectly

[cyan sage]

Most of us do, but when players think they're better than many others it shows

[rugged tundra]

I'm plat 2 but I deserve ssl because I have have like a 49 inch vert and can nearly dunk on regulation at like 5'8

I can nearly grab rim

[rugged tundra]

Yup

[earnest robin]

oh he plys basketball

hockey better

[rugged tundra]

Does hockey have Micheal jordan

[cyan sage]

I'm Silver 2 but I deserve GC3 but my teammates keep bumping me on my air carries😭

[rugged tundra]

That's what I thought

[earnest robin]

Does the NBA have the hardest trophy to win in sports?

That's what I thought

[rugged tundra]

Bro I'm not so sure about that

Give me statistics and I'll believe you

[earnest robin]

Does the NBA have you wearing 50 pounds of gear?

[mortal quail]

its still the world cup

for soccer

[earnest robin]

yh but Stanley cup comes 2nd

[cyan sage]

Soccer boring, Rugby on top.

[earnest robin]

Also, do NBA players get bodied and lose teeth often?

No?

[rugged tundra]

Does hockey have people that can shoot a ball 40 ft jump higher then 45 ft

[rugged tundra]

Is hockey 75% black

No

[earnest robin]

crazy sentence

whats that gotta do with anything

[rugged tundra]

Ikr

[cyan sage]

Bro rlly brought up the race statistic😭😭

[rugged tundra]

It's called a joke

Nah the more black the merrier

But anyways

[cyan sage]

Unless it's chess

[rugged tundra]

Both sports are good

[earnest robin]

hockey is considered the 2nd hardest sport in the world

[rugged tundra]

Behind what

[earnest robin]

Boxing

[rugged tundra]

Bruh

Of course boxing is hard

[cyan sage]

I almost forgot about boxing, it's so good tbh

[rugged tundra]

If you get punched in the liver you die

[earnest robin]

I do boxing and hockey lol

[rugged tundra]

If you get punched in the head you die

If you get tired you die

[earnest robin]

You die?

[rugged tundra]

Exaggeration

[earnest robin]

Crazy over exagg

[rugged tundra]

Bassically you get knocked out

[wise elk]

@severe barn

[rugged tundra]

If you get punched in the nuts you REALLY DIE

[cyan sage]

What songs/artists y'all listen to on the rank grind?

[rugged tundra]

None music is cheating

[earnest robin]

Somebody come get er

[rugged tundra]

You hype yourself up with artificial sounds

[cyan sage]

💀

[rugged tundra]

How you gonna hype yourself up when you falling off a cliff

[earnest robin]

she dancin like a stripper

[earnest robin]

"I can land, I got this"

[rugged tundra]

Ok blud

What about people who overly rely on music

If David goggins says it's cheating then it is

[earnest robin]

yo

[cyan sage]

Call the exorcist

[earnest robin]

Music makes me play worse sometimds

[rugged tundra]

Yo

[cyan sage]

I'm only balling when I have Denzel Curry blasting in my headphones.

[rugged tundra]

Yo what's yall's mile time

[earnest robin]

I got forgis on the jeep

[cyan sage]

Last time I tried one I got 6:57

[feral sail]

[fluid socket]

I found some links shared in private by my account but it wasnt me, I’m I the only one ?????

[cyan sage]

I don't run much

[earnest robin]

lmao aymm

Blud got hacked

[cyan sage]

💀💀

[rugged tundra]

If your like a casual runner then that's good

If you do sports that's terrible

Unless your like good at sprints

[cyan sage]

Only sport I do is boxing

[rugged tundra]

Then that excludes track and basketball

[earnest robin]

...

[rugged tundra]

Boxing don't have running so it makes sense

[earnest robin]

it do in training

[rugged tundra]

Basketball is mostly sprints and exerting a large amount of energy in short bursts

[fluid socket]

Im not the only one but

[rugged tundra]

You have to jump high run fast

[abstract obsidian]

Can anyone coach me

[rugged tundra]

To get steals shoot the ball and dunk

[rugged tundra]

[abstract obsidian]

Plat 2 and trying to hit champs

[silent mortar]

I never said I wasnt fit tho

[rugged tundra]

Bro I do 400, 800, 100, and high jump

I'm best at 800

[cyan sage]

I'm boutta be a Senior once we go back, just got past Junior year.

[rugged tundra]

I was running 800 in county

[cyan sage]

But can you bench 315lb?

[rugged tundra]

I could've got like 2:22 800 but I got tripped in the last 100 meters by some stupid kid

[cyan sage]

Best I got was 3x 250

[silent mortar]

i got a 2:30 in the 800 in 5th grade

but i havent done anything since then

[rugged tundra]

Bro my or is 2:35 because of that kid that tripped me

[cyan sage]

Niceeee

Keep it up fr

[cyan sage]

By the time I try for the IBHOF maybe

Once I finish training footwork I'll be doing weightlifting consistently again

I haven't played for the past month and I feel rusty asf

[silent mortar]

you can download replays

and they can screenshare them to you and mark stuff with the draw thingy

[main glade]

Okie dokie thank you

[silent mortar]

np

[silent mortar]

it wont have every replay bc at least one person in the match has to have the bakkesmod plugin turned on

that uploads them

[main glade]

I'll download it my self thanks

[long bane]

can a gc2-ssl review a replay dm me

[frank ginkgo]

Hey guys I did rlly bad in my tournament today does anyone have any words of encouragement or tips for me to work on?

Silver

[feral sail]

If you are silver then you have a long road ahead of you.just play the game consistently and you’ll naturally get better

Ranking up may be different for everyone, but low ranks should be easy to get through.don’t be discouraged. Everyone has experienced the same thing

[frank ginkgo]

👍

[long bane]

whats your rank?

[drowsy urchin]

new lfg thing is stupid pls man

[upper lily]

as long as youre realizing your mistakes and not blaming others youre on a trajectory to improvement

people who call their teammates bad are gatekeeping their ability to improve by a wide margin

why would your brain think it needs to improve upon itself when you believe youre already better than anyone else in your rank

those are what I call delulus delusional lunatics

[frank ginkgo]

Yeah I’m the one doing bad on my team usually I feel bad because I make my team lose

[long bane]

/looking-for-group

[upper lily]

your brain would be then working overtime to try to ensure that you play better and make less mistakes to fulfill your self-esteem which is a much more productive and efficient way to improve its not a bad thing but confidence wise you should see yourself as an equal opponent on the playing field with your own strengths and weaknesses you can offer your team while simultaneously realizing your mistakes

[frank ginkgo]

Yeah I think I am going to work on training more

Do you know any good YouTubers to watch

[long bane]

flakes road to ssl without mechanics

[upper lily]

if you want to learn 3s positioning the best series I can recommend is scholars school of learning as he has coached multiple players to rlcs

for car control I recommend kevpert he gives very good tutorials he has over 14k hours on the game

I wouldnt recommend watching flakes road to ssl expecting to improve thats basically purely just entertainment

Youre not going to learn much watching a pro player unless youre close to their level as you dont have nearly the same amount of knowledge and experience they have what works for them is most likely not going to work for you its better to learn the fundamentals of the game

[upper lily]

https://www.youtube.com/@Kevpert/videos https://www.youtube.com/@scholar8456/featured

thats kevpert and scholars yt channels

[long bane]

??? flakes teaches fundamentals in that series...

he shows how to go from bronze to ssl without mechanics

[upper lily]

is watching someone play while they give occasional tips better for improvement than watching someone in detail explain the fundamentals how to do them and how to practice them that makes 0 logical sense

you can learn from watching any pro player play that applies to literally anything but the efficiency of it is nowhere close to having a coach/guide/influencer explain things in detail to you

[long bane]

so you havent watched the series then

[upper lily]

youre literally just watching someone play the game and briefly explain what theyre doing there is no explanation of how to practice what theyre doing and there is no details to explain why theyre doing what theyre doing the efficiency to learn from it is 10x less than watching a video dedicated to explaining a concept

[long bane]

have you watched the series???

[upper lily]

youre basically saying just watching a super basic nba player play is going to help you more than getting a coach to explain the game to you and give you practice routines you sound delusional

[long bane]

have you watched the series?

[long bane]

dawg you are telling a silver to work on car control...

[upper lily]

Ive explained what the series is in almost every sentence Ive replied to you with you are watching a guy play the game and briefly explain what hes doing

The literal fundamental to everything in the entire game stems off car control without car control you have no ball control without ball control you have basically nothing

[long bane]

he is explaining every single thing he is doing with examples lmao

[upper lily]

You cannot expect to be able to air dribble without having extensively practiced your car control just like you cant expect to be 5'10 and dunk wtihout extensively having practiced your hops

[long bane]

it is not a brief explanation

[long bane]

so you are saying a silver should work on car control so they can air dribble?

[upper lily]

Youre literally watching someone play the game live there is no pause to go into detail about what hes saying youre not getting anything from watching someone play compared to watching someone explain a concept in detail

when did I ever say anything to do with a silver needing to air dribble

your intellect and comprehesion of information is embarrasingly low

[long bane]

you said they need to know car control so they can air dribble

[upper lily]

in order to air dribble in the game you need to have extensively practiced your car control as every single thing in the game stems from car control

what is there to argue against

[long bane]

yeah that time you learned to air dribble will be 2x as slow as ranking up with game sense

trust me i know

[upper lily]

I never once said that you need to learn how to air dribble I simply said to learn how to air dribble you need to have extensively practiced car control which is a factual statement youre spitting out actual nonsense

If you want to be able to jump off the wall and get a good touch on the ball you need to extensively practice car control it applies to literally anything in the game

[long bane]

learn car control in like plat or high gold

not silver lmao

[feral sail]

“Car control” is a vague tip to give

[upper lily]

Soon as you download the game and get into the game youre starting to learn car control and the faster you can master your car control the easier every single thing in the game will get as the game revolves around car control

[long bane]

dawg you are prbably like diamond trying to give advice lmao

[upper lily]

In order to hit literally anything you need to have car control if youre just downloading the game and completely ignoring car control while simply grinding ranked 100% of the time youre going to improve exponentially slower which isnt inherently wrong its just not what you want to do if you want to improve

Ive been the ssl mmr since before ssl was added into the game and I have over 7k hours

[long bane]

yeah but you arent saying ground or air lmao

[long bane]

car control is vary vague

in silver focus on hitting the ball hard

gold ground car control

[upper lily]

What are you even talking about "you arent saying ground or air" that sentence has no context or information attached to it its a bunch of random words strung together

[long bane]

plat get into ariels but not too much i'd say

diamond dribbles/flicks

[upper lily]

Hitting the ball hard requires car control if you want to hit the ball hard you need to be able to drive your car into a good position to hit the ball and then angle your car in a way that hits the ball hard

Every single thing in the game requires car control thats literally the entire game

[long bane]

not that much though

[upper lily]

You cant hit anything hard if you have no control over your car

[long bane]

hit it hard enough

[upper lily]

Hitting the ball hard is literally completely reliant on car control

[long bane]

not 180 kph just like 80 kph is enough

[upper lily]

In order to come off a sidewall and hit a floating ball hard you need to be able to control your car driving up the side wall control your aerial after jumping off the side wall to meet in trajectory with the ball and then control your car to hit the ball on a spot of the car that enables you to hit it hard

That is literally all car control

I can come off a sidewall and get a control touch into an air dribble to a double reset to whatever because I have extensively practiced car control that does not happen if I have no control over my car

[feral sail]

This is why coaching exists lol

[upper lily]

The basic fundamental to rocket league is car control and next is ball control and still nobody in the game has yet to master car control

We probably thought we hit a peak with car control around 2020-2021 but with zen doing actual insane shit clearly we havent hit the skill ceiling yet

The entire reason zen is a mechanical monster is because he has better car control than basically every pro in the game

[long bane]

again that is like plat or high gold

[feral sail]

What are you trying to prove here

[upper lily]

This guy is trying to say car control doesnt matter which makes literally 0 sense

It doesnt matter what rank you are car control is the entire basis to the game

[long bane]

im not saying that, i am saying that shouldnt be the first thing you learn

[upper lily]

It should definetely be the first thing you learn and try to master as it is literally level 0 of rocket league it is the absolute fundamental that every other thing in the game stems from

Car control could be metaphorically described as the tree and everything else in the game is roots coming from the tree

It is the entire basis of the game

[neon owl]

lf ssl coaching

[feral sail]

My brain hurts

Just play the game.get better over time and only get coaching when you absolutely need it

[long bane]

whats your rank?

[feral sail]

[long bane]

who do you agree with

[upper lily]

I have this video I made a year ago explaining the exact same things Ive put in this chat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DL_FMNJ9f4M&t=&ab_channel=Talo

[long bane]

congrats the smallest youtube channel you can find lmao

[upper lily]

If youre just downloading the game and want to improve your first priority before anything else should be car control

[feral sail]

Idk this guy is my lawyer or something cause he’s going crazy

[upper lily]

I literally upload once every few months and have like 10 uploads in total there is 0 possible way my channel would be big

[long bane]

if you look at the key moments it is all about game sense lmao

[upper lily]

Game sense doesnt matter if you cant hit the ball and you cant hit the ball without car control

Game sense comes after you learn car control and ball control and can do what you want with the ball

[long bane]

learning to hit the ball will come on its own when you play

you dont need to train it that much bud

[upper lily]

Wtf are you even talking about someone who gets on the game and only plays ranked will improve exponentially slower than someone who gets on spends 30% time in freeplay working on car control/ball control and the rest ranked/playing

[long bane]

this dude is typing at 140 wps

[upper lily]

I know personally that the entire reason aqua became good was because he would spend 6 hours a day minimum in freeplay

[long bane]

all this just to show that car control is more important than game sense lmao

[upper lily]

actual craziest statement Ive ever seen related to RL

[long bane]

i mean idc that much i just love arguments so i am pushing him through this for entertainment

[upper lily]

Ive never once said car control is more important than game sense did I

[feral sail]

Me when I’m trying to help anyone but I see this

[long bane]

you kinda did

[upper lily]

Quote it then its easy

[long bane]

just scroll up from like 30 minutes ago and you will see everything you said

[upper lily]

Quote where I said or indicated that car control is more important than game sense

Until then I obviously never said that

[long bane]

dawg your whole argument is car control should be learned first meaning it is more important to learn first lmao

[upper lily]

Is it because something is more important to learn first mean that is it more important overall?

[frank ginkgo]

I think something important when giving advice is first asking what the goals of the trainee might be or what context they are looking to get advice for.

[long bane]

you should listen to the song "Make No Sense" by: NBA YoungBoy

[upper lily]

If I get a new job at a company and have to learn the basics and fundamentals first in order to start my job does that mean its the most important thing in the entire job?

[frank ginkgo]

Or assuming based off their statement they said

Which I think all advice I was given is good and will help me

[long bane]

@upper lily what is your rank?

[upper lily]

This guy simply has low intellegence and is not capable of comprehending information he has to first put his own bias over all information he reads in order to re-context and spin a narrative that favors his side of the argument

As I told you before Ive been the ssl mmr since before ssl was a thing in the game and have over 7k hours

[feral sail]

Punctuation or what

[long bane]

woah i do not identify as a "guy" i identify as a rocket league octane

[umbral badge]

what are some good ways to defend air plays (supposing you gave away posetion and enemy has free ball) in 1v1?

[upper lily]

You are literally the definition of someone who takes in information and re-contextualises it to affirm your own beliefs

Youve said that Im saying things that Ive never once said or implied multiple times already in the span of like 20 minutes

[long bane]

oh yeah well im right and you are wrong how do you like that

[upper lily]

Well there is no arguing with someone that is completely delusional if you want a reality check you can 1v1 me and lose by over a 10 goal margin

[long bane]

mb i didnt know you would take this so personal

im reporting you

you are making fun of me now and that is rude

[feral sail]

Shadow the ball and watch their car(literally).in the air they have tons of options like air dribble bump, faking it or just scoring top net.watching the boost they use will definitely help you determine what they will do too

[upper lily]

Just one of these people that sees everything in the world and cant accept the facts so they have to re-contextualize it to fit their own beliefs that arent logical so that their self esteem doesnt plumment and they dont have to deal with the consequences of reality

[long bane]

yeah agreed

[long bane]

dont get advice from this diamond lmao

[upper lily]

But anyway wont be arguing anymore as I said its literally useless to argue with a delusional person if you want a reality check we can 1v1

[long bane]

woah another report

you are gonna get banned

[upper lily]

You apparently know more than me and have implied youre better than me but youre scared to 1v1 I mean I wouldnt expect anything else from a delusional person

These people are like NPCs actually just the most predictable people on the planet

[umbral badge]

try to block the "easy shot" and force them to score the outplay or something of the sort?

[upper lily]

The exact same mindset you see in every karen video

[long bane]

yeah expect i dont play later in the day(night time for your intelligence level) because i am tired

[upper lily]

It wouldnt matter if youre on adderall I would still beat you by over 10 goals

[long bane]

if im on adderall i would lose anyways lmao

[upper lily]

What youre playing worse at night so Ill win by over 15 goals? that doesnt make much of a difference

Just keep living in your delusional bubble and make nothing of yourself I guess couldnt care less myself

[feral sail]

Yeah that can work.for example, if you prejump because it looks like they will continue going, you can determine what they are doing next.it’s almost like a prediction

Replay analysis will clarify that stuff too

[upper lily]

The funny thing is though I guaruntee if he randomly saw me in a game he would get on his hands and knees for advice but since Im in a discord chat he thinks he is the overlord master of rocket league advice

[long bane]

i mean if you watch their car and it is going from left to right, then the ball will also probably go towards the right due to the momentum of the car hitting the ball

[long bane]

bro you are still on this conversation?

[serene sparrow]

in the looking for group how do i reply to someone

thanks

[long bane]

np

[upper lily]

well it seems like you stopped arguing against me ever since I proposed a 1v1 which would indicate you have at least a minimal grasp of reality to where you know you would get shit on and it would further lower your self esteem

[serene sparrow]

it didnt work

[long bane]

if you just put a /

and click looking for group it will walk you through it

[long bane]

because i have more important things to do than rocket league

[upper lily]

which is why youre still sitting in a #gameplay-tips channel in the official rocket league discord

you dont not want to 1v1 because youre scared you just have better things to do such as giving shitty advice in a gameplay tips channel I see

[long bane]

its called i am coming back after a couple minutes and see you are still on this topic

[feral sail]

Are mine bad?

[upper lily]

you have consistently messaged in this chat the past 5 minutes while I asked you to 1v1 5 minutes ago

[serene sparrow]

bru this shit aint workin

[long bane]

because i moved on

[upper lily]

No I think your advice is good

[serene sparrow]

i have tism

[upper lily]

and you only moved on after I told you to 1v1 me what a funny coincidence

[long bane]

because i have more important things to do

[upper lily]

I think defense advice relies A LOT on the rank at which youre playing though as every rank has different offensive capabilities but you have good general advice

[upper lily]

ah yes more important things to do the past 10 minutes such as talking in the same chat for the past 10 minutes

[long bane]

i am going and coming back

[upper lily]

youve consistently chatted in this chat the past 30+ minutes

[long bane]

do you not realise that i dont respond for like 2 minutes sometimes?

[upper lily]

you couldve easily 1v1d me at any point in the last 10-15 minutes

[long bane]

but i have more important things to do

[feral sail]

Thank you:)

[long bane]

you wouldnt understand since you are like 5 yrs old

[upper lily]

literally all youre doing is sitting at your computer chatting in a discord youre not doing anything important in the slighest you also said its late for you so clearly youre just bored doing nothing

[long bane]

i never siad its late

i said it is night time

[upper lily]

?

[weak shell]

Bro how tf does the looking for group thing work now?

[long bane]

later in the day(night time)

read it before you say something

[upper lily]

you wouldnt play good because youre tired yet youre tired and doing the most important thing in your life while simultaneously consistently chatting in a discord

youve replied within 30 seconds the past 5 minutes when you couldve 1v1d me

[long bane]

its something you wouldnt understand

[upper lily]

you dont even understand what it is thats important youre doing as you havent even said it once youve said while consistently chatting the past 10 minutes that youre doing some mystical important task

just go on chatgpt ask "whats an important task" and give me that at the bare minimum

[long bane]

put a /, then click looking for group then fill everything in

[long bane]

see what i mean you just wouldnt understand

[upper lily]

youre doing something so important that your brain cant even comprehend it enough to put into words that is fantastic

[long bane]

this is probably just as important as your life if you ask anyone besides me or anyone in my family

[upper lily]

literally nobody in the chat would agree with you you sound like a delusional scared crazy person

[long bane]

alright if you say so

i dont say cause i dont leak my personal life to everyone but alright

[upper lily]

and yet again youve spent another 5+ minutes chatting every 10-30 seconds but apparently cant 1v1 me

[long bane]

im just gonna block you and move on cause you are getting annoying

[feral sail]

What did you do?

[upper lily]

Im getting annoying to you because Im trying to do something that would further destroy your self esteem and you dont want it to happen so your only option is to block out reality like you consistently do on a daily basis I understand its another insanely predictable npc karen move

[feral sail]

And where did you message that?

That’s strange

Hmm if you want I can coach you sometime(I’m barely c2 in 1’s lol)

And if you really think the mods are bad, they gotta go through all this stuff here lol

[upper lily]

If you want reference for how shit being a mod would be in this discord just read literally anything ns_banana has said theres so many delusional npc karens out there now its crazy I wouldnt mod anything bruh

[iron ember]

how do i use looking for group

help?

[upper lily]

no discord mods get paid im 99% sure

I have no clue why someone would voluntarily put up with delusional people on a daily basis

The power trip you get off it is not worth imo

Unless you just really care about the RL discord ig idek

[feral sail]

Ah sorry I thought you meant something else.my apologies

Probably not right now.I gotta head to bed cause it’s late

That’s why I suggested some other time lol

[umbral badge]

what region are you in? I could do few games if you dont mind

[brave escarp]

who wanna help me get better at the game i won’t be that bad to coach i promise 😭

[rain crown]

@lilac whale or anyone i need advice for not tilting and advice for dribbling practice

[sterile niche]

advice for not tilting: quit the game

[rain crown]

One of my main problems is i cant see my opponents when i dribble and i only use sound

[upper lily]

"tilting" is just a part of everything in life the only thing you can really control is how you react to it if youre tilted after playing a game you shouldnt say anything to the opponents or your teammates and you should just take a quick break to reset your mental, you can eventually train your brain to reset after every game but you cant really train your brain to just get rid of tilt once its already there

[sterile niche]

increase nameplate scale in interface settings

[upper lily]

Im sure you can prevent how easily you get tilted but that doesnt really have to do with rocket league that just has to do with your general mindset and meditating more probably

[rain crown]

Omg thank you that actually might help alot

[sterile niche]

i play with 150%

[rain crown]

I cant always do that since certain positions im in but majority times i do it at a angle

[sterile niche]

this is stupid ❤️

how many messages is this guy gonna delete

[upper lily]

with the meta camera settings everyone is most of the time unable to see the opponents when youre dribbling it relies more on instinct and correcting yourself after repitition, a lot of pros will flick early expecting an early challenge but the opponent fake challenges and gets a free ball its just a part of the game

[sterile niche]

owned in the marketplace of ideas i suppose

[rain crown]

Yeah i normally have a hard time expressing my feelings so its always to myself since i contain them and i hate ones do much but its how im getting better and i hate it so much because i see the dumb mistakes im making but i couldnt correct in time and your punished so easily unlike 2s

[upper lily]

Yeah 1s is the easiest gamemode to get tilted in but once you can control your mental in 1s it makes it a lot easier in 2s/3s

[sterile niche]

2s is the easiest mode to tilt in

[rain crown]

Oh ok so its more of a try to anticipate because normally i drop it off to see where they are at then pick it back up but they challenged and i didn’t realize so its a easy goal for them

[upper lily]

the majority of players get less tilted in 2s/3s because theyre just blaming their teammates and affirming the idea that theyre the best in the lobby

in 1s there is no excuse for why youre losing and theres nobody to blame

[rain crown]

Personally for me its 1s because my teamate cant save me from when i make a mistake unlike ones

[sterile niche]

i only get tilted when im playing good and still losing

you better be

[rain crown]

Lmaooo

[upper lily]

Usually you can see their car when its further away so most of the time when you cant see their car I would just flick it and if it goes in it goes in but if they fake challenge and save you can play off their rebound its better to flick early than to get dunked

[rain crown]

I normally dont blame my teamate but you definitely are right because there are times where i feel like im the best in the lobby because i imagine everything going my way even though i cant control my teammate so i dont say anything

[upper lily]

You also have to take into consideration how the opponent is playing if they insta challenge a lot you should flick a lot if they shadow and fake challenge a lot you should take more time with the ball to outplay them

The most effective offensive move against someone shadow defending is air dribble bumps if youre able to do that

I mean its also the most cringe

[rain crown]

Yeah I normally dont pay attention to how they play even though i should i mostly react instead of prepare

[rain crown]

I mostly just pop it up and demo or try to flick 😂

[umbral badge]

In my experience most people either insta challenge or dont challenge at all, also a good move when dribbling is to drop it to low 50(if they jump for it), it almost always ends up well for you

[upper lily]

When someones shadow defending you can air dribble bump, air dribble, flick and play off their rebound, fake and low 50, or bounce shot, but its usually harder to score against someone whose good at shadow defense because theyre forcing you to make a good outplay in order to score

[rain crown]

Yeah normally i used around 35-70 boost when dribbling sincr i try to fake and catch when they leave top right or left open to power shot it

[upper lily]

Someone who insta challenges everything is very simple to beat you either just early flick or drop it and low 50

[rain crown]

Im stupid i thoght you meant boost

[upper lily]

But peoples egos get in the way and they keep trying to do air dribbles etc. and just get dunked by someone early challenging you just have to sacrifice your ego and do the simple play lmao

[rain crown]

Ok i will try this in my next few matches

[umbral badge]

honestly we should normalize 50 being a mechanic, a player that is good at 50's is insanely hard to beat

[rain crown]

Lmao i try to i just feel like something going to go right and i do it and i can tell its going bad and i get tilted

[upper lily]

Also an effective technique you can use in 1s for defense is to insta everything the first half of the game and once theyre conditioned to that and expect it you can start fake challenging and shadowing everything or vice versa

[rain crown]

My kickoffs are insane i can pick where i want the ball so normally i pass back to my teammate

[rain crown]

Only problem with that is i would forgot to switch since i get zoned in😭

[upper lily]

A 1s tip for kickoffs is if youre for example on the right side boost going for kickoff and youre sideflipping left everytime into kickoff from that position just start sideflipping right

usually people sideflip one direction into a kickoff and just do that by default everytime even if theyre losing every kickoff but most the time all it takes to start winning kickoffs is flipping the other way

[umbral badge]

does that work? Not sure on where I got it from but i've heard going from inside field to ball on side kickoff is faster/safer

since if you go from side the ball will always go to sidewall (or maybe im just bad)

[upper lily]

Im not talking about the first flip to the kickoff Im just talking about when youre at the ball if you sideflip left or right into it

[rain crown]

The thing about me is i do a kickoff differently almost every time since i react to the difference in their speed and mine and go off of there

[umbral badge]

aaaaa I see

[upper lily]

The first flip of a kickoff doesnt matter as much as the actual flip into the ball

Some johnnyboi 1s players flip outward some go inward

[rain crown]

I have a question would either of you be interested in watching a live ones match of mine and see where i go wrong

[upper lily]

I learned that tip by watching johnnyboi cast the zen vs daniel 1v1 he said all zen had to do to start winning kickoffs was flip the other way into the ball but zen kept doing the same kickoff everytime and lost like 90% of the kickoffs

Usually if youre sideflipping left from the right side and losing everytime its because theyre covering the left side of the ball if you flip right theyre not covering that side as much and youll win it more often

Usually people will sideflip left from the right side and right from the left side

[umbral badge]

What seems to work for me fairly well is I go from inside and then cover net incase, also fairly easier to prevent delays (then again partly because my speedflick is not consistent so I tend to get beat)

[upper lily]

Oh yeah if youre losing like every kickoff you can also try a delayed kickoff its more risky but if it works you usually win the kickoff by a large margin

For a delayed kickoff you would get all your speed to the kickoff but then before you hit it you slow down and single jump
