Wait I have a question
for me?
Yea
ight
I went down ranks all the way to bronze for something but I can air dribble and aerial and double touch
Is that bad?
to bronze?😭
Yea idk why
I practice like 10 hours a day
And ground pinch....
I don’t know how but I hit a flip reset but it did not go in but I got one
I was confused when I saw people in like gc in bronze
I was gonna see if there was any pros there
prob no xD
wow
I actually practice for like less my bad I meant I play for 10 hours
I practice for like 4
Hours
What basics?
I could do that but I am better at aerials on my real acc
@radiant wadi
Like silver cuz I can’t rank up because it’s not working
My ps4 was not working
I’m getting a ps5 or ps4 pro
I can also dribble and flick
Cuz I started in December w
On my ps4 that I was playing on I thought I would beat a diamond
@runic flame
Id save up for a pc
I mean its not that consoles are bad, and if u cant save up for a pc or dont have the money in general they are a cheaper good option but a pc is just a bit better
Save up perhaps? Or is that not an option?
I had massive input delay on my ps4 on rl but less on my pc
We get payed 1k in 2 weeks and that’s for bills..
Ahw yeah that sucks, well console is still not bad
I only like full court airdribbles
It’s more easy
I never get actually skilled teammates
I pass and they miss..
I JUST GOT A FLIP RESET
It almost went in
what
✨
just win more than you lose
if ur actually bronze just play games until you win
I win about every game but my teammate does nothing at the last time
And I ranked down to bronze to see if there was pros there
looking for tips to get better
if you win every game why are you complaining
I said about every game
But it does not rank me up
If it worked I would be in low diamond
This is my alt account so I started in silver
My other account not working
So idk it’s prob silver cuz I can’t rank it up either the ps4 is glitching
I got banned from match making for58 mins
Idc tho I’ll just play fortnite.
lol you are your rank becuase you arent good enough to go up
idk i wouldn't say really anyone deserves silver anymore
unless they JUST started playing
and if you're in bronze you're intentionally deranking
^^ true its very hard to get below silver cuz of the new account placment how it works
i might be wrong but fresh accounts placements start with like what 600 mmr
How do i get mechanical
Play for a few thousand hours
Rocket league says i have 16 days on this game
I have 48 days with near 3k hours so there is some reference for ps
I have 13 days on rocket League and I've been playing since 2017 on and off, but I've gone from diamond 1 to gold 3 on solo q for 2's, I know everyone says this but it's my teammates fault and I have PROOF, any tips? Trying to look for one in here
that’s like 1k hours, not 3k
i still have near 3k on steam lol, the game only counts in-match time while steam counts time in the game in general, so also training
It's not your teammates fault if you play many ranked games and have the same problem. If you just played like 5 games then it's possible you just got bad teammates
Ok
Ok
One sec
I’m hopping on rn
I’m on GeForce now
So it takes like 5 mins to load
Ok
I've lost the last 4 games in a row, I have clips of teammates trying to solo goals while I'm waiting for a pass, or me passing to the ball to my teammate but he's right behind me, it is my teammates fault and I can give proof if you want
With good teammates I've managed to get to diamond 1
just be smart and addapt
if u see him go for solos and fails a bunch just expect that
It's not just that tho
Passing in plat doesn't sound like a great plan tbh. Can you consistently pass properly or score passes? No.
Try playing based on how you expect your teammates to play instead of playing based on what they should do (if they were higher ranked), that should fix your problems
I can't make plays myself because when I do, my teammate is right behind me and he bumps me, then they get a free goal
ngl most in my games i get the ''hero player'' i just chill in the good spots and the ball just comes to me and i score
f it just let him go
By pass I mean I hit it across the backboard ready for an open shot
wait for him to bait an enemy and go for the 1v1
So carried basically
And he misses or he isn't there
No
That's not a problem if you rotate out and are ready to defend. But if you can't recover quickly then it's risky
i gotta see the games
Even if he misses then you should be back, if he doesn't go then oh well, just go again
Want me to send you clips?
send me the whole replay
I dont have replays on
u can save them after
Check ballchasing
It literally doesn't matter what the games look like, if you deserved D1 then you wouldn't have a problem carrying G3.
The point is you need to play based on the teammates you actually have instead of pretending they are good at the game
But I don't have that enabled
just play a nother game what is a nother loss
in the menus theres a button save replay
Wym, when game ends you can click save replay
after the game ends
I'll play another game if I lose I'll send you the clip
Wait is he pc?
should be at the bottom save replay
Has psn linked 🤷♂️
Ye check ballchasing, if not just do clips if he can send
but wait he said clips >.> how u easly get clips into discord?
Youtube?
Google docs
for ballchasing somebody has to upload the replay
so ur console?
Ye that's why
Yeah
oke send me the clips then
2 seconds
lifes hard for console huh 😄
Alr i can inconsistently flip reset in one day which i will say is wayy easier to hit once u do it repeatedly. Now my next thing is when i get the flip reset im flipping and i get disoriented should i just continue to grind them out? Or am I supposed to be flipping a certain way
eh depends what u wanna do
can anyone dm me a video to watch for directional air roll and how can i rank up
Something really simple as shoot the ball in the direction of the net😂
u can instantly start spamming jump and down to shoot the ball and then all the other stuff depends how the ball bounces sometimes the ball sticks then u wanna flip quite early and sometimes the ball just bounces away and u wanna kinda flip so u earial hit it
if what i said makes sence
its gonna feel weird but keep doing and u will understand a bit what i mean
Yea it makes sense thanks
Ive only been doing them and practicing them for one day so obviously i need to do it for longer thanks
atleast thats from my side and like from my expierance and how i like to shoot flipresets
I just did what you said it worked
For some reason flip resets are wayy easier to do than other things
its a grind mehanic just gotta learn the timing of the catch
How do you go from air dribble into catch
off the wall or from grownd?
best way to describe it is grind and u will get it but the tip is usuly theres this 1 special touch where u get the feeling oke i can get the reset
Ighhht
grind untill u do it once and then it clicks
but for me it usuly evolves around the start earia if i get the good 1 touch that gives me the good space
(this is mid air) usuly u get the special touch depending on the earia u start the airdribble from in like 1-4ish touches
hardest mehanic to explain
ik
Shall I send the link in here or DMS?
dms
ive been trynna do it for 4 months
depends witch way but simple tearms its for me down and to the side and reset and repeat
oh the legendary 3k h and c1 😄
pc
rings is the best of the best
because u have some sort of target where u need the controll and ur forced to learn it
any
leth rings are fine
well leths are better if u wanna learn controll cuz the rings are akwardly placed
speed id say are more for fun
u dont realy learn too much from them
@hollow wyvern
its just how it works in games like the fast earial jump
but its a mehanic that u grind out and something clicks in your head and suddenly u know how to do it for some it takes couple of hours for some couple of months
just grind car control, do rings, recoveries, and switch up sense and deadzone to find what suits you best
Should you take shots at the goal if you know that they are going to save it in a 1s game?
depends if they are facing the ball or awkward
🗿
No I had was argueing with my friend whether you should do it if you know they are gonna save it in a good position
if you just give away possession then no, but sometimes an easy save can make them awkward if they are shadowing
nvm the situation, as long as saving it will take a good amount of boost and you know you can take possesion after shot do it
He says that its good because it tells your opponent to not get close to you because you can shoot it at the goal and I said thats not good because you are just telling them you can score from there meaning you cant get a scoring opportunity for long shots.
i mean u can bait an akward save out but then again il let somebody else take over about 1s im not the best at them
as ive said, if its 1s, boost starving them is a great tactic, making them save shots constantly will keep pressure and take away their boost, you keep doing that untill they dont have enough boost to save your shots
what gc?
what gc, 1 /2 /3
gl, you've just crossed the halfway mark
you gc in 500 hours?
thats wild good job
lul me with 3k hours chillin in c1 😄
bro whats the lfg command
and playing with him? xd
./lfg
Don't take the shot unless it gives you an advantage, probably boost or position
and what else do i put in it
press the empty sections, it will let you choose
they ruined it imo
also not just hour camping 15657 games over alll xD played
cant specify what private match i want anymore
lvl 2576 😄
@minor remnant na?
eu?
vc?
sure
why am i hard stuck in my div ffs
i would've been down too, hmu if u wanna play after
bruh i got about 50h and was D3 div 4 last season
@minor remnant some how i hit a double flip reset and it went in
Is there anybody here willing to look at 2 replays of mine?
Do you just want a few things to work on, or a whole analysis, or vc discussion, or what?
Just a few things to work on.
I can watch them and type up a few things later today, DM if you want
dm
Anyone on here know the secret to mustys/breezys as I’m sure there’s something I’m missing with them and can’t figure it out
told u just gotta figure out what u wanna do and then how the ball bounces
Как сделать looking for group подскажите пожалуйста How to make looking for group prompt please
catch the ball with the backend of your car
idk your rank bu try and go for more safe passes (passes where u can rotate quick and fast) so your mate can fully go for the ball, if u dont do that it will be an open net for the opponents or your mate cant go for the pass and plays 2v1 after
Do you tap boost to help spin the car around faster?
how do i perform a pass though
and what is a way yall use air roll left
to keep full car control
anyone elses game just fucked?
bumps & demos arent working, my car is flipping wrong way each time, bounces arent working
and fifties i go through the ball
I'm a casual player looking for controller binds (Ps4) aren't to hard to use (no fat fingering).
is it better to hit the ball diagonally or sideways? (not only in kickoffs, in general) (sideways in the meaning of flip while holding a or d)
I do defualt but i switch drift with ball cam so its easier to drift when i need to and i put directional air roll as right bumper
whats right bumper
what is right bumpee
The thing aboce right trigger
@rapid flax
Almost always diagonal because you sort of combine the speed/momentum of your car with the flip. If you flip to the side you aren't really using your car's speed to hit harder
can you watch a replay for me? @signal lintel
What rank, what mode, and what do you want me to do exactly?
im c2-c3 in standard, maybe help with positioning or rotation
I can't look at one right now but I could look later. Also I don't do vc. DM if you want
teach me how to dougie
Ok
thanks i am now douging
bro made a new account

can someone pls coach me
Any one willing to tell me how to get better in 1s and how to get good Kickoffs?
@heavy linden speed flip
doods, im hardstuck diamond since like.. idk season 4
i need help
i cant sit in this purgatory anymore
Diamond: Stop tilt queueing, give your teammate space, get better at punishing your opponents. This can be done with good shooting and reads. Starting defending off backboard and get better at doing it. See the enemy up high, go backboard. Get better at basic aerials and wall touches as these can be vital. Get better at offense without sacrificing defense
BRO I jus cant get another flip when going for a double like I truly dont know what to do and its sad cause people like “you’re champ 3 and cant double 😂 ”
Crazy, I got gc1 without being able to single reset. Also most gc1s can't double reset anyway
Much less c3
well I dont need mechs tbh im a good ground player but dawg how tf I miss every time
and my car bounces off the ball
check dm tj
i think the issue on my side is im too passive, i try to force the opponents into giving away possesion, but the flaw in that is i cant punish them even in my possesion
@lofty flax
yes
In diamond at least, you can get away with just waiting and scoring open nets. Most goals should be open nets anyway as diamonds tend to overcommit a lot more often. If your too passive, it means your allowing free shots and plays when you can easily cut it off. Even then you should be able to save most shots
bruh hello
What happened to nrg fan bro
Hi, I'm in plat, used to be diamond, I need help with ground dribble and air dribble
practice
They are probably disbanding so
Plus they don't play anymore
sm1 here know how to double flip reset that can help me
LOL thx
nothing beats grinding it sure some tips help but just doing it is the only way
yeah but it will take a long time to get it down and the only way to is to specifically practice it
c2
Aaa
When I get diamonds, can u play with me
Help me rank up and help me get better
i have an alt that is diamond so yea
pc
on that account bowkins12
can anyone here coach me im hard stuck in diamond 3 ;c
K
Does anyone hear have any tips on how to get to diamond in 3s ?
True.rip to squish departure
I’m down to see new teams though
i mean lowkey just get better tbh
@turbid ivy
LF a coach or whatever to watch my replays and guide me pls im 1500 ish and just hardstuck for past few seasons
most important thing with air dribbles is the set up, if u can do that right u can get good tries, in general take your time with the set up at first. 1. try to get already on the ground in a good line so u dont go crazy left right before touching the ball. 2. try to get the ball as high as possible without it touching the ceiling. 3. u want to toch the ball when it has that up-movement and above the corner, otherwise the ball either goes to straight up the wall or too far away. 4. try to get in a similar speed as the ball. 5. At first, AS SOON as u touch the ball jump, rlly as soon as u touch it. When u focus on all these steps u should be already be very close to the ball after the set up. Then u just need to air roll in a straight position and try out the dribbles. Also try doing it in freeplay. Training packs can be good but there the set up is done for u and u might be able to actually dribble then but cant use it in game as u dont know how to set up
Thanks
Anyone able to coach me i can't get out of plat and ive like some tips
@tribal ledge here's some ideas
Yo, can someone help me? I've been a plat 2 for like 2 months (peak d1) and i am stuck, any tips for how to be a consistant diamond??
or dont focus on the setup at all
ignoring the setup = slower progress but will make u better at them then when u practice the setup
it allows to u air dribble from any setup no matter how shitty it is
@cyan sage Do you count the first touch on the wall and jumping off the wall as setup?
A lot of people use the thing that rolls the ball out in front of them and up the wall
yea
dweebs
True
Thank you so much 👍
@mortal quail no longer an nrg enthusiast?!??!?
The end of an era 😭
how many hours would it usually take for someone to get champ
im stuck on the carry part of the air dribble
any tips?
im good at the setup i mean
just not after that
try not to boost too much, just tapping otherwise u push it too far away, try more to go from under then from the front
sorry for the late reply but you use boost to position the car
ok ill try it
Any tips on getting decent again ?
@silver walrus
whats up
doesnt matter
Has to go eventually
can i dm someone my 45 degree flick motion to see if im doing it right or not
yes
Need some tips in game for my air dribble can anyone dm me?
@thin meadow
can sm1 halp me with my freestyling, i know some stuff already
oof
@cyan sage

@frank totem
Does anyone know how to practice air roll left aerials on console?
Do them a bunch. Aerial training packs
Does anyone here know how to speed flip correctly?
Yes
Mind teaching me ?
I can give you some advice if you send clips or go in private match but I don't do voice chat, dm if you want
@cedar linden
yea?
Anyone diamond or below dm me for help
👁️
bro what are my diamond tm8s rn.💀
i jus lost 2 matchs cus of them

Can someone watch my gameplay and tell me what i need to improve on
@weary light
Ya?
i had to @ you so i could DM you bc this bot sucks ass
Ok
@ivory lance
Alr dm me
unlucky
what car do yall think i should main? octane, fennec, skyline gtr?
trxublxu#0000
gtr is cooler, and different hitbox
exactly i'm playing the new car the silvia and i don't even care that much about the different hitbox
it's fun
1endo1#0000
Been a Nomad main for the past week lol
But my most played car is the Dominus, so I'm apparently an odd person anyway.
yo
Yo when do you use reg air roll rather than directional
@fringe fossil
just get better!
@civic marlin
If anyone needs help learning mechanics anywhere in between air dribbling and tripple flip resets in a PM, DM me NAE!
Generally I've seen people use it when they want to air roll to the right, as those that still have both will bind left directional only.
I can't imagine why they would personally, as it is far more inefficient, but that's their preference.
okay so:
last season i peeked at my highest rank of high gc2, after starting really low on that season, and finished the season low gc1, because of bad days (for both me and my mate) and not really caring as much and playing with friends.
i started this season c3, and didnt give it a fully try - played with friends for fun, and didnt really give a damn being lower ranked than usual.
at one point, 3 weeks ago, i decided i wanna rank up, catch up with my teammate and hit gc3 this season. i know i am capable of it, since i hit my peek while not feeling the best, and not trying too hard. it felt natural and simple.
so i thought, with enough practice and grind and tryharding, ill hit gc3 with my mate.
and ive tried playing solo q and with my mate,
and tried,
and kept going.
and i dropped to c2.
these whole 3 weeks i felt so weird playing, felt hesitant, felt slow, felt stupid, couldn't outplay/read/be more consistent then c2 and c3 players, couldn't perform mechanically (still hit some cool stuff, but not consistent AT ALL) and overall BAD.
and i tried switching up stuff, i tried taking a couple days of break, i tried solo q i tried with my mate, i tried new cars new settings and i even tried to force through the bad gameplay, thinking that at one point ill wake up and start playing again
but no.
and this has me really frustrated.
i wanna think this a part of the process and that this time will pass but i just keep playing so bad.
today i reached mid c3, barely able to win games, getting carried by randoms.
the fact im low ranked doesnt bother me, the fact im playing like poo is.
if uve made it so far reading, i appriciate it <3 if u have something to say to me go ahead :)
wow that is a lot of typing
@uncut cipher
i am putting this out here to here if someone has something to say that can fresh up stuff for me
try not caring about your rank if that’s fresh. halfwaydead did a study by turning his rank off/not caring if he won or lost and he went up
i dont care about my rank at all
i care about my gameplay...
its me
who is performing like poo
well gameplay basically = rank. just don’t care about it. have fun with it
another thing that can help is be in calls with friends
makes time fly
lf coach, im gold 3 - plate one
2 things make me have fun in rl
do random stuff with friends
or play very well against hard opponents
im used to doing both all the time
having fun, deranking, ranking up and peeking and repeat
this time i feel like i lost a very main part of the joy i get from the game
im doing everthing
then try freestyling, you haven’t done that (i’d assume)
reset amount? if it’s 3 or below doesn’t count as trying freestyling
like spend a month or so trying really hard mechs
learning maktufs, jakzes, controlled mustys, long air dribbles etc
ground freestyle plus 4 resets...?
resets aren't the only thing about freestyling (not saying u say otherwise)
ground fs is pretty easy
look
would try harder mechs. hitting that one shot you’ve been going for feels so good
im not trying to find a new way to enjoy the game
im trying to break a brick wall i am infront of
yeah
learn hard mechs then implement them into competitive
i nearly got gc2 that way, pure mechs
i have good meches man
can you maktuf or jakze
no
ok
that is not the only thing making up good mechs
i know…
okay:)
but learning hard mechs + being consistent at them helps
whatever, getting past c3 just let ur tm8 do whatever
and make sure the ball doesn’t go in ur net
let ur tm8 be “him”
im not looking for ways to improve either
i am gc2 level for sure
right now im playing like shitass
cant play around my mate and anything
i dont need help improving, i konw how to do that
im looking for help trying to get back to myself
take a break from the game
for a week
if i ever feel really really bad
for a long amount of time
i quit for a week, only playing casually if at all
i did try to take a break for a couple of days but maybe a week is a better idea
o well i guess there is nothing bad with taking a break, ill do that
starting from tmr till next week
does anyone know how to reply to people looking for a game? i cant see a way to friend them or message them anywhere
How do I post LFG in the group?
/lfg it should pull up the prompt to fill out
Thank you

I dm
dm'd you asuna
@rare plover

And i love opponents that just love passing to my tm8 its rlly nice ☺️
Before season 11 came out I was Diamond 2-3 and now I can’t get out of flat anymore wtf
nah i 50 a lot
Anyone have good kbm bindings for someone who just switched to pc?
default isn't bad I think but most pc players use a controller, you can look here: https://liquipedia.net/rocketleague/List_of_player_control_settings
What's the point of using pc if you plug in a controller?
game runs better and looks better, unless you have a bad pc
Oh 🫤 My pc is terrible yet can somehow still play the game, but the controls are really weird so I might just stick with console, but I feel like I need pc to be better since a lot of my friends are better on there
kbm isn't bad
hmmm
pc runs the game way better than console. controller is still the prefered way of inputting your movements though, since theres a lot more control and precision you can do
Thanks for the tips! This helped
how do i amke lfg
yo i need someone to help me with my air dribbles, resets, and ceilin shots
@cyan sage type in /look and fill in the questions
Anyone have any tips for a gold to get past gold and tovplat
check dms
anyone down to go over a replay with me and just point out anything specific? Im high c3
hang back
don’t hang back 😭
gold opponents miss like 80% of their shots
u trying to get this mf to silver
telling someone to hang back is how you get hardstuck plat 2
telling someone to challenge everything is how you get them to silver 3
obviously you dont hang back for every rank
but for gold, hanging back is good
doing 1 thing to get out of a rank is how you get hardstuck
actually going for the ball isn’t
thats how he's gold
would anyone like to coach me to gc i am currently c2-c3 😄
you should pretty much always challenge tbh
yes lol
unless you’re obviously beat
“pretty much always”
read pls
damn
nat would you like to coach me to gc
okay i need to stop 💀
dm me if you’re genuinely interested
LMAO
yes well genuinely interested in being coached
yes
dm me then smh
ok bb
can anyone help me get back into champ?
hi, no
...ok...?
Has anyone managed to successfully hit the ball in shots 4 and 5 of this training pack? I have yet to touch the ball on shots 4 and 5.
anyone who gc plus tryna get in a vc and watch me play 1s im tryna get better and need somone to point out my mistakes i will listen
Hello I have around 200 hours. I am Diamond 1 Division 2 player in 1v1. I am struggling with dribbling and flicking and I was wondering if there was anyone that would be able to do a voice call and give some pointers. It’s the first mechanic I am learning!
can someone teach me how to air dribble pls i wanna learn how to im plat 2 deranked and i wanna learn how to air dribble
i can help u with dribbling
notth i help u with it
Can anyone help me who's above champ 1
Hey I would prefer to have someone that is at a higher level. Nothing personal.
k
anyone know how to get controller on rl pc?
are you wanting to have an overlay show up or are you asking something else?
its a deadzone thing
Any tips for option coverage in rotation?
Also is Offensive spread more important than compressed radius coverage?
depends on rank really
low rank just assume worst case scenario but if you 1700+ you can trust tm8 to get ok touch/50
like 2000+ mmr
scenario
its a different game when you can trust everyone to hit ball though
Exactly so the scenario for discussion is 2k+ 3s
if 1st has ball poss you play close if 1st diving to force touch you play passive
if you 3rd you go opposite side of 1st man near start of 12s in your half
maybe mid if they have control
but its super situational and dependent on playstyle of you and your team
@cyan sage if you want we can q, im only 1700 3s atm
can someone help me im champion and dont know what to learn or train ive got over 1500 hours and just dont know what to do
can u send me a replay file and i can look over
oh how do i do that
are u pc?
yes
erm il dm u the location of the files
Im looking for someone c1+ IN 1’S to help me get better (I’m d1 in 1’s)
Any GC or SSL fella tryna coach 3 hooligans? (2 diamonds and a plat)
can any one help me i have tried and i people just call me impossible to teach and i don't one teaching secion
im trying to get into gc in solo queue twos should i be playing agressive more or just play off my tm8s?
dont over commit just wait ur tm8 because always randows just fking flies and doesnt even hit the ball 😂
good tip dont play aggro play defensive and try to get goals with counter attacks
how does the #looking-for-group thing work? I just got in the server and im confused
if with randows
just /
and looking for group will show up
press on it
it is really simple
what if my tm8 is shat?
try to do some crazy goals
wdym
not rn but i havent played ranked much this season, i was 4 games off gc last season
so yeah
basically in higher ranks the people that are bad are low
but still u can get bad tm8s always
fr
i recommend trying to find a tm8
its just often enough that i dont go up in rank much
finding someone thatll play with my schedule at my rank is pretty impossible
which server are you
east
iam eu
just try to find a random guy that is good in rank
and play with him 😂
if ur lucky ull find someone thats gc in 3s
and hard stuck champ in 2s
can someone coach me? im d1 in 2s, but i need some tips to getting champ
backpost rotation
thats to my teammates fr
xd you have to adapt to your teammates
but regardless, you have to focus on yourself
improving your weak points
Hit open nets
Try to continue the solo q grind, u will learn more there then with a mate, try to adapt and if mistakes happen look what u could change in order to win games, with a premate its usually diffrent roles so u are lets say more defensiv and he offensive, then u just know rlly how to defend, in solo q it always changes, also try and play more 1s u get in these Situations quite some time in 2s so its good to know what to do then
question, me and my friend have been in silver for months now and we are in no condition to rank up anytime soon, what would be a good way to improve and stop my friend from blaming everything on me?
search for a new friend if he's that mean
impossible in diamond
even if you hit a crazy shot, they will find a way to trash talk you and throw the game
it's always the same
- stop chasing around the field 2. try to get better with powershots, this should be enough, if ur mate continues this behavior search for someone new or play alone, with that attitude he wont make it far
dang how is everyone so good at air dribbles in diamond wth
He says I'm bad but I'm silver 3 he's silver 1
As i said, just solo q mate, u will get higher while he stays low, thats the issue with that „i m better“ attitude
im trying to learn basic flip resets from the wall and ground, i can get the reset about 60% of the time but when i do, i struggle to actually use the flip for a powerful shot. i can screenshare or do anything. can anyone help?

I can help ya out
oo ty
@celest zealot
yea he aint a good friend my guy
I need help learning how to air dribble I need to impress my friend for once
Watch a tutorial train and repeat
I watched multiple I've been trying for a good 5 hours
tips on how to flick higher
Not enough
It took me about 20 without air roll
And 30 with
Okay thanks
Try other ways to flick
Like 45 degree flick for example
Or 90 degree
I'm hardstuck diamond 2 to diamond 3 any tips on getting to champ?
No problem bro
if its further back on ur car it will go higher. u can also put it towards the front of ur can and backflip to get max height
Also do you have any tips to getting it right
Get more consistent when hitting the ball, try hitting it to the corner when clearing. Try back post rotations
Wdym?
Any mistakes u realised u were doing on the way
Don’t be hesitant when going to the ball
Alright
To learn the flick?
Air dribble
make sure u get the setup right
Not air rolling to get more angle
Okay thanks
Learn air dribbles without air roll first
I'll air dribble later also I can't seem to get close to the ball after the setup
Air dribble without air roll*
With*
@tacit turret
You need to accelerate with the ball
@cyan sage why u pinged me?
Could u show me an example by accelerating with the ball
ur name doesnt show up when u put up a lfg
can anyone teach me hoe to air dribble
most important thing with air dribbles is the set up, if u can do that right u can get good tries, in general take your time with the set up at first. 1. try to get already on the ground in a good line so u dont go crazy left right before touching the ball. 2. try to get the ball as high as possible without it touching the ceiling. 3. u want to toch the ball when it has that up-movement and above the corner, otherwise the ball either goes to straight up the wall or too far away. 4. try to get in a similar speed as the ball. 5. At first, AS SOON as u touch the ball jump, rlly as soon as u touch it. When u focus on all these steps u should be already be very close to the ball after the set up. Then u just need to air roll in a straight position and try out the dribbles. Also try doing it in freeplay. Training packs can be good but there the set up is done for u and u might be able to actually dribble then but cant use it in game as u dont know how to set up
thank you very much for ur reply
i really appreciate it
i usually play on k&m should i switch to controller ?
all about preference, so however u prefer
looking for coach
everyone says controller is better but i really prefer k&m
then continue with it, i wouldnt say its better, but would say its a bit easier, at least i feel like that
heyo
Dm
i´d say everything in the air is easier with controller but i wouldnt switch to controller when you prefer kbm
you know how to air dribble?
do i need to air roll while im air dribble? because some people told me to air roll to make my car stable
nah its just preference. u dont need it
if u are new to air dribble i would just air roll after the set up to get in a straight position but not much after, just if ua re more experienced, but this spinning whole time is usually just for the looks without a real purpose
I’m just struggling to get flip resets with air roll, I can get it perfectly fine without but as soon as I add air roll to it, i stuff it and can’t get near the ball let alone consistently
Anyone have any advice? I can show you what I mean in dms through a video
sure send both variants to me i can have a look
Alright, give me a few minutes. I need to find the recordings. Cheers
kk no stress
Thanks!
im gc. i know how to ardribble
can you join my party and show me how i can work on it?
please?
im close to c3 any tips for me
try playing more around the smaller pads, this makes u stay way more in rotation and help your mate out, the small pads are kinda in a circle so u get nearly everywhere with catching like 4-5 boost which is enough to cut and help your mate, watch out with passes, rather try save passes then risky ones otherwise its an open net (easy pass is where u can rotate back quick soi your mate can fully go for it), try looking at yourself if u loose and what u could have done better rather then just blaming mate otherwise u will be stuck
@rustic mist
any one have tips on learning to control on the ball on the ground and not missig free nets and pre hitting the ball
breezy i think
any tips to get out of c3?
ghost pinged
tips to get out of plat?
is there like a channe; to go to for coaching cause im not tryna get banned again

try to avoid chasing and try to learn how to get good powershots out of multiple positions
d3?
try getting better adapting to your mate, lets say he chases try and be more passive and dont try forcing your playstyle thorugh, play more 1s as u get in those situations a lot in 2s so its good to know what to do then it also improves many other things like kick offs, dribbles etc., try not leaving your teammate alone too much as he is prob not that good in 1s
thx
alr i just started playing this game yesterday and i play keyboard and mouse. is it easier on controller?
ya it is alot easier i play on keyboard mose for week and play control and was better
damn
personal preference
Guys what hitbox should I use?
whats that?
just use a car that you like
don’t think about hit boxes
Yeah I know but I cant decide: Fennec or Octane
they have the same hit box
I know but the cars look different. You can adjust more with fennec for example
…..????
no lmfao
there’s only a cosmetic difference
Star i got a question theres a car that i like and its called dominus. how do i get it?
Fennec is closer to the hitbox. Atleast thats what I think?
play the game
ight
There are these beginner quests. You have to do them
it might “fit” more but it has no competitive advantage
octane is better imo
Yes thats what i mean
Ok
Lol. I learned how to air dribble and air roll left at the same time. Took months of practice but it’s more of predicting where the ball is going so you can adjust your car perfectly to get good touches
Tbh airdribbling is basically the same as air roll training
try air dribble melee single player, dont give up and just play it every day over and over
helps with controlling the ball and car and also ground to air dribbles
fennect head touches the ball
ya it accurate show where u hit the ball unlike the octane
feels clunky though
tbh I feel like it fits fennec even less, some fennec touches are like 2 miles away
you only like it because your more visually used to it
ya
overall fennec suits the hitbox more, youre jut not used to it
indoset#5045
@lean canyon
i mean they both have the same hitbox
its just fenec has octane hitbox
yes but the cars appearance sizes the hitbox better
Guys i cant click a persons name to message them in looking for a group what do i do
Yo allow it some one help me im a diamond to champ player but i lost all my placemwnt matches to see how it is in plat and now i cant get out
Bruh
Ur funny
Me too
Like i can go and score right but if i miss im screwed cus team8 sucks and dounle commita
Ya I'm sure the solution is to stop finding teammates instead of learning to play as a team
Ok
Ik how to play as a tema but teamates dont
And i just get boost starved until teamats just pass it to opponents
Any tips for begginers?
You could also just stop expecting your teammates to play like GC
Plenty of people coach for free tho but you don't need it
I mean i cant eveb expect them to hit the ball at this point
Ok so play based on that
Any tips for me?
Ok
Gold, close to Plat
Have you changed camera settings?
not rlly
I removed the Camera shake and the controller vibration
I can do basic flicks and fast aerials
Bad pinches
small rotation
Bad teammates
Nice that's a good start. Normal camera is around 110 280 100 -4 0.65 3.20 1.40 so you should probably stay close to that at least the first 4 numvers
@regal estuary
would x/square for boost be better than B/circle?
Can you send me the screenshot fro the settings
idk
Can't open game rn but it's just those numbers in order
ok
Or you can DM me a pic of yours if you want
actually, do u want to become friends? (i mean like chatting, playing together
Yes or no?
i do
dont you just love it when you earn +0.5 mmr when winning and -9.5 mmr when losing..
very balanced game 
Lmao
brother if you were champ and now ur stuck in plat there is def some other problems right here lmao
Brother u r sooo late
ik i just saw this i it confused tf outta me icl
Like we had that convo 30 mins ago
not that late rlly is it lmao
K
that might be alr but if you are gonna change ur boost button, most people use the right bumper
howd i lose one game and lose my whole platinum?
What
you were plat 1 div 1
on a newer account or fresh out of placements
alr thx
it can't be just me that thinks learning the game on keyboard and mouse is harder right?
am i doing it wrong or something you really just gotta learn to pitch it
it's awkward 😔
nah it's just you
keyboard and mouse is actually easier imo
iam ass at it so
iam new to the game
yea me too
yooooo les go
not bosnian apparently
whys there so many past season gcs in c1 😭
rip
what region you play on
europe
boosting exists
u should beg bosnian to boost u ryan he just too slick with it
Im bad at the game too, I just said that kbm feels easier than controller
No need to glaze
lol
how is that tho i see everyone's movement being so much smoother with a controller
now sure i didn't try it but makes sense ig
the movement is smoother because theres actually input inbetween 0-100
but mechanics wise? KBM is easier, you dont need to worry about angles, you can just look at a list of inputs
well ye
that's what im saying you either hold it just right or not
can't fix your stuff as easy
and i said LEARNING the game
Like speedflipping, on controller you have to have the analog stick a certain angle, and people take over an hour to learn it, on kbm it's literally one button shift and you've done a speedflip, takes like 5 minutes to learn
yes, kbm is easier to learn? I answered that
bro dont just take it separately wut
anyway no need to argue in gameplay tips whatev
Parents when they find out backtalk is how a conversation works:
me
ye
iam unranked
a good rank to be
i mean if you practice enough you just get into champ instantly after the first few games u play
0_0
Checked pinned messages in #looking-for-group
too much work
how do i text people who made a lfg post?
dm them prob
but how 🤦🏽♂️
dm them..
it doesn’t work, try it
to lazy LMAO
it doesnt work, the bot is broken, theres ~a 5% chance of it working
you can only dm the people with actual names, not the ones with ID's
oh dang
@serene mica
i am diamond 3 almost champ in 2s with about 400 hours in the game and i am wondering what can i do to rank up to champ the fastest
just play more, keep practicing the basics and maybe attempt some of the more complex things
basic like?
just the stuff like good rotations and the lower level mechs like half flips, you might think they are easy but if you can perfect them they will be a lot better and more consistent, this is the same with all mechs obviously
fast aerials etc
depends what you're bad at or good at, but for the most part, to hit c1 you really only need to have good shooting tbh
my shooting is pretty good i got like simple ground dribbles im decent at arials
my rotation could probably be better tho]
back post rotations, basic backboard defense, looking for demos on rotations back, getting good power on the ball, not centering for the opponents, not cutting off your teammate, polishing your fast aerials, ect
dribbling is something you need to be good at
dm me your epic, ill play a game with u and let u know what u need to do different
lmao
on that note, you can also hit at least champ while playing backwards
honestly you probably could
'bored' ur playstyle is booming the ball its all you can do
bros beefing out of nowhere wtf xD
your attention span is simply not good enough
@cyan sage read this to get some ideas
your playstyle is booming me instead of the ball, who are you to talk @remote holly
Welcome to #gameplay-tips
i boom whatever closest
Lol
partying with you effectively applies a 3 week long debuff on overall skill for your tm8
parz don't even get me started on ur 1v1 strat
this is backed by factual evidence
real
Quick question for the grinders in this discord, I'm currently Gc 1. I'm looking for tips on positioning and how to recover faster to improve my gamesense specificly during counter attacks towards my own nett.
Any tips?
Thanks!
welcome to gameplay tips, the chat so dead it's just 10 trolls using it as general
play more?
My 1v1 strat is to tilt the opponent by never giving space
lmao
The tilting is accidental
shadow the ball
I work 45hours a week so I only get at most 3 hours a day
Weekends I can grind tho
3 hours a day is way too much to still be gc1
gc1 in 1s i hope
Nah 2s and 3s
I'd be SSL4 by now if I played 3 hrs a day
I don't touch 1s lmao
start.
True
dude if i consistently played 3 hrs a day i'd be so fucking good
if i played 1h a day i'd be good
It's because I swapped over to overwatch for the last year ish years I was gc2 before I swapped games
I averaged maybe an hour a day atm
If i played 1h every other day i'd be good
Like I said I took a year break
i take a year break every other year fr
A year isnt long enough to use as an excuse
can anyone here teach me/coach me on how to air dribble lmao, im decent but i just cant grasp air dribbling ( dm me )
I took a break for overwatch when it came out 7 years ago or whatever
i play for 0 hours a day and im ssl.
i think there are like 3 total seasons whwere i have over 100 games played
But yeah thanks for the advise I'll just put it more hours when I can as well as game 1s more often
Nah, you would be SSL5
😮
Crazy, right?
@Adam H#2283
what is something i should learn? (plat 1 in 2s and low gold in 1s and 3s)
how to hit the ball properly
like power shots? or just aiming at the open net
both, if you can boom the ball at net, you're champ at the very least
Who can help me in game since?
i boom the ball but it doesnt help if my tm8s own goal
But there's one teammate and two opponents who also own goal
nah the other team always play like theyre SSL
exactly
I made it do diamond 1 div 4 guys lets goo
looking for coach im gc in 2s and diamond 3 in 1s
well done bro
Any tips on getting unwashed?
more hours
how do i put a message in #looking-for-group
anyone willing to take a look at a 30sec video of my speedflip and see what i'm doing wrong? would very much appreciate it
just boom ball and score more than opponents + tm8 can boom ball and score on your net
@serene sparrow
just do /looking-for-group
How do I solo que and win a tournament it’s impossible and I’m only gold
u cant solo q tourneys
How do I look for group in that format
Looking for coach i am c1 in 2s and d1 in 1s
I can
I need someone to help me to get good at ground control
@surreal lily
@gusty ore
@dapper saddle
At 1500mmr i seem to be outsped considerably and constantly get demoed, and once im boost starved i cant escape and get scored on. Any idea how to counter?
I guess just being faster is an option, but i still have to improve keeping quality while playing fast
I mean i would help u out but im still diamond
But could u help me
Like i need a bit of help
I need someone to help me get good at ball control
Help as in what?
I cant and wont do live coaching as im not even sure how to play myself. I can give a tip or two on approaching improvement but thats it
GC 3 DM ME
