spookluke isnt the best

[quick socket]

do u wanna run sum cas with me?

cause what ur saying might be true

[slate trellis]

If that makes sense I’m not trying to be cocky I understand that’s might be how it came out but I’d be more than willing to screen share with someone on playstion

[mortal quail]

Without seeing a replay its impossible to know your exact issues and flaws. There is no magic advice out there to help you. All we can do is give generic advice and help you on issues you know

[plucky lion]

At the end of the day if you were as good as you say you are you wouldn’t be C2, to rank up you have to be critical, actually find what your problems are and work hard on them

[quick socket]

wdym

[ancient marsh]

spookluke is terrible

[quick socket]

dam ight

[plucky lion]

Fr

[quick socket]

why?

[cyan sage]

worst rl player too

[feral lark]

Why is it so hard to turn with controller? I can barely move if I turn the analog stick to the left.

[mortal quail]

Spooluke is horrible, even pros don't like him lmao

[plucky lion]

Most of his advice is just wrong, and his GCR is a scam

[mortal quail]

Use powerslide

[ancient marsh]

spookluke is a c3 who tries to tell people how to get high ssl

[slate trellis]

Krylo- on PlayStation someone only gc or higher please

[feral lark]

alr

[quick socket]

then who should i watch?

[plucky lion]

Watch wayton

[mortal quail]

Depends on your playstyle and how you wanna play

[feral lark]

wait but how do I turn without losing momentum I still have to turn the stick lol

[ancient marsh]

personally flakes' road to ssl without mechs teaches a lot

[quick socket]

oh i watch him too

[plucky lion]

Yep flakes is goated

[slate trellis]

To screen share and watch me play a ranked and critique me

[quick socket]

hmm need to watch him then

[mortal quail]

Yes, when you turn you'll lose momentum, especially if it's a tight turn. Thats why you powerslide to minimize it

[feral lark]

ohh okay, thanks :)

[slate trellis]

I think I just dropped to c1 div 3

[plucky lion]

And not just holding powerslide too, you have to spam tap it to turn faster

[shell scroll]

i played ranked for the first time in months the other day

[signal lintel]

Tap powerslide at beginning of turn don't hold it

[plucky lion]

How did it go

[slate trellis]

Yeah

[mortal quail]

You said you were better than c2s
How you c1 now

[plucky lion]

Lmao

[feral lark]

Thank you so much it works a lot better now haha

[slate trellis]

I just went on a hot losing streak because I tilt qued😂

[signal lintel]

👌

[shell scroll]

was fun because i was playing with a friend

and we were hitting clips

[plucky lion]

Nice bro, glad to hear

[signal lintel]

Not a bad thing tbh, train ur mental

[quick socket]

friends? had them once

[ancient marsh]

He said hes d3, then c2 now c1 unless im trippin

[mortal quail]

Bro rank jumps more than wolf does

[ancient marsh]

his rank is a national mystery

[quick socket]

like his custom map vids

[mortal quail]

Leth had a good road to gc series

[glacial linden]

okay second game won

[mortal quail]

Mixture of mechs and gamesense

[slate trellis]

I never said I was d3

[quick socket]

he does those?

[glacial linden]

onto the third

[mortal quail]

He did at one point

[ancient marsh]

Flakes and Leth have the best road to gc/ssl series

[slate trellis]

I said I’m c2

[mortal quail]

Psyonix told him not to anymore but

[signal lintel]

True

[quick socket]

hes funny might also enjoy n learn

[ancient marsh]

Flakes does no mechanics to ssl so it teaches a hella lot of gamesense

He explains it well aswell

[slate trellis]

Yeah

[signal lintel]

I'm the fastest and least consistent c2

[slate trellis]

And yeah. To ur question

[radiant spruce]

Ok ty

[mortal quail]

Leths is more realistic for the average player. Flakes relies too heavily on gamesense which most players don't have

Dang

500 games

[slate trellis]

I just told u I dropped literally less than an hour ago

[mortal quail]

But he is saying it contradicts what you said before

You shouldn't drop if you were better tldr

[slate trellis]

Add me and see

[signal lintel]

This poor guy even Ero bashing him lol

[mortal quail]

Damn, I should probably stop

My bad

[timber scarab]

How do u join a looking-for-group thing

[ancient marsh]

💀💀💀

[slate trellis]

I don’t hate the criticism it’s cool , I was just saying my side of it , if the question is wether I’m being truthful or not I can only tell you if u don’t want to add me and see, I’m just saying the information from my side , I’m literally asking for an outside opinion

[signal lintel]

I have 1 game played in 1s and I worked on everything you told me

[quick socket]

500+ games what??

🤣

[feral lark]

It's kind of hard to maneuver with my drive forward bind being different from my steering, like should I have steering on buttons or analog stick?

[quick socket]

analog

[ancient marsh]

Mods got him 💀

[timber scarab]

How do u join a looking-for-group thing

[quick socket]

/

[plucky lion]

Use the command

[timber scarab]

What command

[quick socket]

type this @timber scarab

[plucky lion]

/looking-for-group in #looking-for-group

[mortal quail]

Its not truthful or lies
Its delusion

[timber scarab]

No ik how to make one

But how do u join another persons

[plucky lion]

Ain’t gotta do him like that bro 💀

[signal lintel]

Lol

[mortal quail]

Like I'm not doubt he isn't being truthful
Just not honest with himself

[ancient marsh]

Somehow c2s are trying to disprove gcs telling them the truth man 💀

[slate trellis]

Okay so what is the truth

[plucky lion]

Lmao fr

[quick socket]

i just type their name in the server list then msg them

[slate trellis]

I don’t practice enough? When your all shocked over 500 games this season is that not contradictory

[timber scarab]

How do u join another persons

[mortal quail]

That you aren't as good or consistent as you think you are

[plucky lion]

The truth is you aren’t as good as you think you are, you have lots to work on and you have to just pick a few things, learn them, apply them rank up. Rinse and repeat

[mortal quail]

You aren't getting good practice

[ancient marsh]

krylo play 1s and you'll see everything

[mortal quail]

1s is shit
Rewatch your own replays and see what you can improve to get an edge, or at least see what your major flaws are

Damn Bubba

Be helpful at least

[plucky lion]

This should be obvious but if you aren’t warming up for at least 20% of the time you are on you are holding yourself back a ton too

[signal lintel]

Most positive #gameplay-tips interaction

[slate trellis]

I don’t ever play casual or extra game modes

[bitter fjord]

@chrome wing bruh why u block me cuz i lagged out

[mortal quail]

What about freeplay

[ancient marsh]

@slate trellis you should be playing 1s, a lot

[slate trellis]

I do free play about an hour or two every day then I grind ranked 2s the rest of the day

I work so that’s about the same amount of hours in ranked

[mortal quail]

Change it up, play more freeplay and less ranked
Take breaks in between games

[plucky lion]

When I was at peak improvement I would be in freeplay/workshop/training for 70% of the time, repaly reviews for 15% and ranked for 15%

[mortal quail]

Playing too much ranked can also be an issue

[shell scroll]

[slate trellis]

Okay now you guys are caught up

[mortal quail]

What you said before wasn't

[ancient marsh]

play freeplay more, rewatch replays, play 1s

simple as that

[mortal quail]

No

[ancient marsh]

and dont hit ball away for no reason

[mortal quail]

Rip

[elder tulip]

Should i use directional air rolls (left right) or just use airroll non dirrectional

[ancient marsh]

Did mods just get bubba

[plucky lion]

Left or right, just pick one

[elder tulip]

ok

[slate trellis]

Now what in free play should I work on

[mortal quail]

Yup

[plucky lion]

Prolly

Only worth learning both when you reach GC2 really but not 100% necessary. As long as you have a decent understanding of the secondary one you will be good to get to SSL

[elder tulip]

What button should I bind it to? I use left bumper as non dirrectional and I want to change to dirrectional but i feel like I wont be able to use it on an inner button like square

[plucky lion]

Boost pad collection, follow the main circle in limited boost while focusing on the ball, same with the rainbow pads, practice wavedashing/ power sliding while doing the same. Then incorporate the ball in it too

[plucky lion]

Ye I use swuare for air roll left and it works fine for me but lots of people use bumpers

[ancient marsh]

Perfecting wavedashes is so important

[plucky lion]

Yos

Bounce dribbles 🧌

[ancient marsh]

Powerslide cuts

[plucky lion]

🔥

[ancient marsh]

Powerslide cuts alone can get you very high in 1s and 2s

[plucky lion]

Hepta resets are necessary to get out of plat 🦧

[ancient marsh]

Fr 360 maktufs

[plucky lion]

100

[ancient marsh]

Dont forget the backwards jakze resets

[plucky lion]

If you can’t chain 30 mustys together you can’t reach D1 🔥🔥

[glacial linden]

lost the fourth match too

[ancient marsh]

SSL is just a silver that can do triple flip reset 😤😤

Im top 100

In 4s

[plucky lion]

Tufff 🔥

[latent isle]

4s is great

slap on the merc and go explode a few toddlers

[ancient marsh]

If 4s was in ranked i would be top 4 with my squad fr

4 key roles in 4s =
The demogod
The guy that does all offense
The guy that comms a lot but does nothing
The guy that does all the defending

Thats the ultimate squad

[latent isle]

I can't confirm this fact as I do not play 4s

[ancient marsh]

cringe

4s is a tactical masterpiece

[latent isle]

I play 2s and 3s

[ancient marsh]

I play 4s 2s and 1s

screw 3s

[latent isle]

only casual 3s tho

[lethal glacier]

If all 4 of those players had a baby and that baby was raised on bakkas mod it would be the omega RL player

[ancient marsh]

That player would 1v3 in rlcs and win

[plucky lion]

4s mega squad is: the noob who can’t even drive straight, the plat who just Jumps for everything, the GC sweating his balls off and the diamond just sat in net

[ancient marsh]

The noob and plat spam demos

[plucky lion]

Fr

[ancient marsh]

Without demos its incomplete

[plucky lion]

Well the noob tries

But he can’t really move the car

[ancient marsh]

With two teams with demogods the field is turned into a warzone

[lethal glacier]

We shall call this 4's mode....CHAOS

[plucky lion]

Rocket league battle Royale

[ancient marsh]

Sometimes i would just get a bunch of high ranked friends and we would make one of them 1v4 whilst the other 3 all go for demos

[craggy sluice]

@topaz cape 2s

[feral lark]

After around an hour of training and several losses I think I'm switching back to keyboard. Is this a good decision if I am more experienced with keyboard from playing other games?

[ancient marsh]

its preference

[plucky lion]

Depends but generally no

[feral lark]

alr, yeah I'm switching haha

[feral lark]

sadness

[plucky lion]

Some people are just better on keyboard but rl is pretty much made for controller

[ancient marsh]

im gc 2 and kbm

and freestyler aswell

kbm is good just not a lot of tutorials so you gotta think

[cyan sage]

What's kbm stand for

[plucky lion]

Keyboard and mouse

[feral lark]

I cant get my settings and binds right on controller, I get overwhelmed with all of the different inputs

[ancient marsh]

Keyboard and mouse

[cyan sage]

Thank you

[signal lintel]

Because you literally just switched lol

[plucky lion]

Ye all the KBM players I know are either GC2 or plat lmao

[cyan sage]

I am controller if you need help

[feral lark]

I switched a few hours ago, but reverted, I just tried again

[ancient marsh]

Henkovic is a good example of it working, evample aswell

[lethal glacier]

Sounds like you could tap into the youtube video tutorial market for KBM players. Make that intro sick af.

[cyan sage]

Bet

[plucky lion]

Yep

You can be nuts on kbm

But it’s just easier on controller for 99% of people

[signal lintel]

I don't think you're going to know if you like controller or not unless you try it for at least a week or two

[plucky lion]

Fr

[cyan sage]

Kangaroo is what I was expecting but koala noice

[ancient marsh]

When i was learning maktuf resets and all there was no tutorials for kbm, so i had to watch the controller ones and try take from those and translate into kbm

[feral lark]

ahh alright, I'll try for longer :)

[whole palm]

What is the best training pack for wall play on defense?

[signal lintel]

Ranked 3s

[ancient marsh]

playing casual 1s and playing defense 🔥

[lethal glacier]

I met a KBM GC at a esports lan center and the fear of turning into stone via direct eye contact was in full effect. He actually became my collegiate RL coach for a bit

[ancient marsh]

i was 1900 in casual so i would just go into cas 1s and sit defense to practice

[whole palm]

Ik but what the best training pack?

[ancient marsh]

all are good rlly as long as they're not just jump saves

[plucky lion]

Just look up wall shots training pack in google or yt

[whole palm]

Oh ok tysm

[whole palm]

Tysm

[ancient marsh]

I hate the ones that give you 5 minutes to react to save

[plucky lion]

Np

[ancient marsh]

idk past 1950 cas mmr you get a lot of good players

Most my lobbies in 1950-2200 casual were gc 2 - ssl

[plucky lion]

I would just rank up in cas in 2s, Switch to 1s, find a high ranked 1s player and ask to do a bo5 with them. Rinse and repeat

[ancient marsh]

yh sometimes tho

Ssls dont play a lot of casual so they only there sometimes or idk y

you dont need to play much to get high cas mmr tbh

[signal lintel]

Losing streak maybe

[cyan sage]

Yo I got a question will anyone help me with my speedflips I suck at them now

[ancient marsh]

i did it to practice for cch soo

[signal lintel]

If you can show a clip

@cyan sage

[cyan sage]

And I'll send it

@signal lintel

[ancient marsh]

only problem in casual was that past like 1850 the 1s queues sometimes took quite long

hello can someone give me the best training pack for

[plucky lion]

There isn’t really a best training pack just try a bunch of different ones

[signal lintel]

Shooting Consistency by Wayprotein|A&M: 4912-A5C9-9A56-555D

[sly cipher]

ground shots is a good pack @shut moat

[feral lark]

I’ve just now found that I enjoy 2s a lot more than ones, should I be rounded out playing both or should I focus on one until I want to focus on the next?

[sly cipher]

jjust work on overall gamesense and positioning though that would be your best bet

[plucky lion]

Nah most people main 2s just don’t dismiss 1 completely

[feral lark]

Oh cool, thanks

[plucky lion]

🙂

[signal lintel]

You'll improve a lot faster if you play 1s regularly but you don't have to play it as much as 2s

[feral lark]

Sounds good! I’ll make sure to play ones every now and again

[cyan sage]

hi everyone i just hit plat for the first time and im already in plat 1 div 3, does anyone have tips for me to rank up even more

[quick socket]

just play the game

[vague sable]

🤓

ok does anybody else have some actual tips

[quick socket]

nah actually plats are fairly new to the game you should just play the game and learn about it

if you really want to improve watch some vids maybe flakes and leths as some people recommended them to me

[dusky fiber]

try to get consistent with powershots on target out of multiple positions and try not to chase, if u can get good with these u will reach dia in no time

[vague sable]

thanks

[vague sable]

well i spent like 2 months perfecting my aerials

thats part of the reason i got to plat

i used wayton's aerial training pack

[quick socket]

if your good at aerials basically your diamond already maybe focus on shots and clears then

[terse eagle]

any high ranks (gcs) able to help coach me or maybe analyse replays sometime tomorrow? been stuck c1 div 4 for a bit and need some help

[vague sable]

I can teach you mechanics you dont know how to do

[vocal crater]

:D

[buoyant crescent]

anyone a coach?

[fierce oar]

play the game and hit ball on target and the bare minimum basics down

[junior widget]

capitalize on opponents mistakes

[cyan sage]

can anyone give me tips to improve? preferably c3+ i’m peak c2

[ivory lance]

@shrewd thunder

[sterile nacelle]

focus on your rotations and keeping the ball with you rather than just hitting the ball across the field at 60 mph

[grim skiff]

Just play 500 ranked matches and your gonna find yourself in gc if your truly mechanical. Your gonna learn and adapt your gameplay on the way.

[sterile nacelle]

very unlikely

[grim skiff]

I was a very mechanical champ

And I simply played more

And found my self in gc in less then 2 weeks

[sterile nacelle]

playing more sure, but nonchalantly playing 500 games isnt gonna do anything

[cyan sage]

fr, 500? c2 is like 1200mmr, 500 matches? more like 40 wtf

[hard cape]

I got lag at ps5 someone got tips?

[cyan sage]

get a pc

[faint sail]

If anyone wants help learning in game playstyle or mechanics anywhere from air dribbling to triple flip resets in a PM, DM me NAE.

[hard cape]

😑

[cyan sage]

they cheap rn

bubbabubbabubbubba

[grim skiff]

A lot of players get nervous when playing ranked, they start missing more and are not confident at all, to overcome that just play hundred and hundred’s of ranked games until you became unsensitised.

[junior widget]

yea idk how playing 500 games is gonna do much

[cyan sage]

just dont get nervous tf

[grim skiff]

Some players do… that’s what I’m saying

[cyan sage]

well if you're mechanical at c2, playing 500 is sure to get you out, c2 is literally a checkpoint rank

[grim skiff]

They care too much about their mmr

[sterile nacelle]

if you just go into games and play 500 your not going to learn anything, somewhere along the road you need to figure out your mistakes and what you are doing

he didnt explain that thats what i was referring to

[cyan sage]

"Somewhere along the road" it's c2, the road is pretty far

[sterile nacelle]

somewhere along the 500 games

[cyan sage]

you can just ballchase and boom the ball and be above c2, not really much to think about

[grim skiff]

If you play enough you subconsciously start making less mistakes.

[sterile nacelle]

not at all

[cyan sage]

somewhere along the 500 games he wont be c2 anymore

[cyan sage]

Worked for me

[grim skiff]

Getting gc 1 is quite easy specially in 2v2.

[cyan sage]

im on rn wym

choose game @cyan sage

[junior widget]

how is c2 a checkpoint rank

[cyan sage]

It's the only rank i've ever seen lose consistently against lower players, feels like psyonix just filled it with a ton of allstar AI bots to prevent smurfs from deranking through it easily

It's literally a struggle to lose in c2, you could sit in net and only single jump to save and win 80% of the time

[strong kite]

can someone explain to me how to use the looking for group system. cause i dont understand how people are getting those boxes that says all the info of what your looking for

[grim skiff]

In most of champ players lack control, they just end up throwing the ball away. Just sit back from the play, and wait for them to clear the ball towards you.

[cyan sage]

#looking-for-group and check pins

[cyan sage]

I'd rather ballchase

[grim skiff]

Yeah that’s if you have good mechanics

[strong kite]

preciate it

[cyan sage]

No I just boom the ball into their net

[grim skiff]

But if your stuck in champ2 and you have champ 2 mechanics, then just sit back and wait for them to clear the ball.

[cyan sage]

that c2 said he had good mechs

[grim skiff]

Ah, we are talking about him.

[cyan sage]

Anyone know the best way to be consistent overall

[cyan sage]

anyone wanna coach me? i’m d2 but genuinely think it’s bc i don’t have good tm8s

[shrewd thunder]

hello

[signal lintel]

If you were the better teammate more than half the time then you'd rank up because the opponents are the same rank as your teammate or lower

Just play 1s or whatever you have to do to figure out your weaknesses

[cyan sage]

no like i expect them to pass an obvious pass, so i position myself to receive it then boom, they miss, get 50d, miss the ball, or do something crazy

they double commit like there no tmr 💀

[signal lintel]

Ok so don't play as risky. Be realistic about what you expect your teammates to do and how (in)consistent they are. You aren't better, you're just good and bad in different ways

[cyan sage]

but playing passive the whole game bc ur tm8s suck is so boring

[signal lintel]

So don't play passive lol try some new strategies

[junior widget]

play around your tm8s

[junior widget]

or just become so good you dont need tm8s in your rank

/looking and itll come up

[shut isle]

❤️

[stuck gazelle]

to get out of c1 ?

[pallid anchor]

yes

[stuck gazelle]

work on basic mechanic

[tropic hamlet]

what I did is just like focus on defensive and putting the ball in good places to clear it

[stuck gazelle]

yea but control the ball when it important because the second you get c3 it wont work

[pallid anchor]

i dont think my general gameplay is that bad for c1 but i think its mor consistency

[stuck gazelle]

freeplay

[pallid anchor]

i always clear to sides

we talking dribbles or catching or both

[stuck gazelle]

you pc ?

[pallid anchor]

me?

alrighty

and my catches are good but my dribbles arent too good

theyre okay

[stuck gazelle]

ill see the error

anyone here like ssl 2k mmr

i need tips to get outa gc3 man 😔

not much about gc3 all they say is grind (120 past 2)

i was ssl then drop

what are you ?

ah ok

[cyan sage]

that is infact, too low

[stuck gazelle]

idk if i should play 1s at this point tbh

[cyan sage]

makes sense

[cyan sage]

1s is fun, so yes

[pallid anchor]

how can you say that about 1s its the most painful gamemode ever

[stuck gazelle]

it isnt at all

[cyan sage]

you're just bad at it ig

[stuck gazelle]

ahahah

[cyan sage]

you're also just bad at it ig

[civic harness]

yo can anyone help i’m stuck in c2 my peak was c3 but idk how to adjust to my tm8s gameplay.if u got any tips it would help

[ornate mesa]

@dusky grove

[civic harness]

who is that

[dusky grove]

Yo

[civic harness]

yo

[cyan sage]

learn how to adapt

eh, debatable, it's c2, you can just ballchase and boom the ball to win

well, winning technically does prove you're better

and if you can do so by ballchasing, that's also better

well, he wont hit that point anytime soon tbh

[robust cloud]

whats ur rank

[cyan sage]

unranked

it be what it be

[robust cloud]

last szsn

1?

how many hours do u have roughly

[cyan sage]

shit if i know

[robust cloud]

well whats the best way to rank up

[cyan sage]

~600 in career stats maybe?

[robust cloud]

like how did u do it

[cyan sage]

I just ballchase and boom the ball into the opponents net, not the most practical way to rankup, but it works and is fun

what rank are you?

[robust cloud]

c2 but i took a years break so im only rlly playing back again now

[cyan sage]

then just focus on getting your consistency back, focusing on gamesense, back post rotation, keeping track of where everyone is, muscle memory stuffs, looking for demos on rotations back, polishing your aerials/fast aerials, basic backboard defense, boost management and pathing, keeping momentum and not full slamming the brakes, not panicking infront of net ,etc

I gave it

[robust cloud]

thx

[cyan sage]

all i did was agree? so you literally did accept it

you said that you were too low, i said yeah, you're too low

same point, just me saying the same thing

how is it possible to disagree with me saying exactly what you said

k

[stuck gazelle]

wdym

[austere bone]

anyone here a grand champ or ssl to shit on me? im champ and wanna improve in the game but im kinda stuck and need yk someone to learn smth from (in freestyling aspect)

[stuck gazelle]

[regal anvil]

I was wondering if anyone wanted to play cas/ help me im champ 1-2

[feral lark]

Just got matched with a diamond and S9 tournament winner in SILVER TWO

[junior widget]

could have gotten carried in that tourney

[feral lark]

they had the est. 2016 tag

[junior widget]

means nothing

[feral lark]

If anyone was being carried it was their teammates

[junior widget]

maybe it was a smurf then

[feral lark]

I am a silver, they are a diamond, doesnt matter if they were carried or not

[lean glade]

whats up with the lfg people popping up as a bunch of numbers

[feral lark]

possibly

[lean glade]

i just came back to rl

[regal anvil]

M

[junior widget]

i think the new discord id system

idk tho

[regal anvil]

Its to help with smurfs

[stuck gazelle]

im gc and bro has a rlcs tilte

[regal anvil]

Makes it “more” difficult

Thats what i was told atleast

[cyan sage]

How do you cover more options instead of commiting to the fastest most likley option?

[stuck gazelle]

wdym

[stuck gazelle]

better placement

[cobalt crane]

Learning how to position, fake challenge (depending on the situation), manage boost, etc can help with that

It also depends on where your teammate is, I might take an incoming dribble play slower if I see my teammate can make a challenge from behind or go super quick if I know my teammate can cover net in the case of a flick. Tl:dr field awareness also helps the decision making

[feral lark]

in the 2v2 tournament happening in around 10 minutes, are there gonna be like GCs there or is it just low ranks like me

[cobalt crane]

Depends on your tournament rank

If you haven’t played one than it will be matched to either your 2s or 3s rank

[feral lark]

Oh okay, ive never been in one before

nice

thank you

[swift lava]

im c3 and i dont know what to improve to reach gc. i can do pretty consistent air driblle and flip resets and i got good comms with tm8s but i dont see myself progressing anything

[sullen estuary]

Im plat looking for help to reach diamond

[cobalt crane]

How’s your defense?

Also how do you get scored on most of the time

[swift lava]

my defence is pretty good and often i get scored on either by tm8s mistake or when the enemy turns ssl for 5 sec

also sometimes double commits

[cobalt crane]

So it’s likely a mentality thing, c3 is a tough rank tbh since a lot of people double commit and make rotational errors, often times a more reserved approach can make a lot of difference, especially if you have good ground game, ability to make consistent first touches that are able to be followed up, and have good defense. I know it’s not as flashy or fun, but it’s honestly a good way to push for gc since c3s make a lot of mistakes still

[swift lava]

so ground play gives a lot in c3

[cobalt crane]

Learning to identify the type of player you’re playing with and his tendencies (specifically flaws) earlier on also helps you manage them and make winning possible

[cobalt crane]

In 2s for sure, aerial play is great and all, but only if it doesn’t cause you to overcommit to a play which often is the occurrence for c3s

[swift lava]

yeah ive noticed myself going for balls that i shouldnt be going for sometimes

[cobalt crane]

Obviously don’t just not aerial for balls but you don’t need to do the big forcing aerial plays with mechs to get gc, I got to gc2 without anything that’s really considered mechs so if you play smart and can shoot consistently from the ground it’s more than possible

[swift lava]

so if my aerial play is good should i focus on overall consistency and recoveries on ground

[cobalt crane]

Good ground game and recovery are huge, you don’t have to a one on your aerial gameplay but being able to recover quickly from it will make it more viable as well

[swift lava]

should i consider passing on 2s?

because most of the time i find myslef in 1v1 situation to shoot

[cobalt crane]

Situationally, typically offense passing is very risky since it requires both players to fully commit, however passing on defense and in transition is usually less risky

[swift lava]

so pass to my tm8 so he has a good clear of the ball

on defence

[severe lava]

I love to pass

[swift lava]

@cobalt crane should i try to save all my games and watch replays to maybe find the mistakes myself?

[severe lava]

I mostly play 2's and would prefer a teammate who wants to try passes rather than aerials

[cyan sage]

What’s the correct way to position if I play behind I lose the middle and if I play across I lose the loss 50 or dunk

How would I cover both ?

[cyan sage]

Yes

[faint sail]

If anyone wants help learning in game playstyle or mechanics anywhere from air dribbling to triple flip resets in a PM, DM me NAE.

[cobalt crane]

You don’t need every single one but yeah more is better

[cobalt crane]

Ngl depends on the exact situation, if you showed me on a replay or clip I could probably make an insight but off the top of my head it’s tough envision the exact possibility you’re referring to

I’m also kinda tired rn so I’m probably misinterpreted what you mean exactly

[kind wadi]

@daring granite

[rich rock]

Can anyone coach me I’m plat 2

[faint sail]

Lostsoul12AP

Oops!

If anyone wants help learning in game playstyle or mechanics anywhere from air dribbling to triple flip resets in a PM, DM me NAE.

controller

[green silo]

Learning to air dribble, when I take off from the side should I be leaning backwards then air rolling to line up with the ball? I have no clue if I’m doing it right

Also not sure if I should just immediately air roll and try to get to the ball

[shadow wind]

I dont know what im doing wrong on plat 2

[frail zinc]

consistency, basic rotations, challenges, basic mechanics, boost management

[frail zinc]

^

[glacial shoal]

What should i do if i have a trash tm8 in 2s champ 1

[cyan sage]

win

it's champ, tm8s dont really matter

[lethal glacier]

Play with people (LFG section for example) in casual matches before committing to a rank match

[cyan sage]

thats one solution, wont really make you better tho

[frail zinc]

play around them, play more passive, dont expect them to miss but dont put your self into a position where u cant play the ball if they do, dnt put them in 1v2s and most importantly dont get toxic or else they are just gonna stop playing

[cyan sage]

personally I stop playing before they can

[frail zinc]

I mean thats just not a rankingup mindset but u do u

[cyan sage]

My tm8s usually manage to 1v2

[frail zinc]

yikes

[frail zinc]

if thats actaually the case then I dont think they are bad/the issue

[cyan sage]

oh yeah, im the bad one no doubt, my soloq tm8s are usually really good

they just have trouble adapting, so if i sit in net and just defend, they dont need to adapt

[frail zinc]

I mean thats not letting them 1v2, your just playing passive/playing around them

which is kinda what u gotta do in solo q

[cyan sage]

not really playing around them imo, Im just sitting in net

[frail zinc]

o

[cyan sage]

I never push out at all

[frail zinc]

well then uh im not sure then

[cyan sage]

I just keep the ball from getting past the goal line

[frail zinc]

what rank r u

theres no shot

lmao

[cyan sage]

🤷‍♂️ like i said, soloq tm8s are usually really good

[frail zinc]

gc 1 has gone down hill then yikes I cant imagine loosing to a team where 1 person sits in net

thats even worse then lmao

[cyan sage]

🤷‍♂️ it be what it be

[frail zinc]

all they should have to do is beat your tm8 then its a 1v2 which should be a goal almost everytime if they dont suck

[cyan sage]

my soloq tm8s dont usually get beat that easily, and if they do, they tend to take pressure off me so i can clear and get back inside net

[lethal glacier]

What would be an ideal tm8 that you would benefit from based on your strenghts?

[cyan sage]

wdym

someone who can score in a 1v2

[frail zinc]

someone with insane mechs that can 1v2 solo play and also get back in the case of a demo play basically

[cyan sage]

thats usually the tm8s i get in soloq tbf

[frail zinc]

I just find it insane but I mean obv it works

[cyan sage]

rocket league moment tbh

[elder stone]

Yo anyone that’s a coach got a moment

[frail zinc]

sure

[cyan sage]

depends what you need the moment for

[frail zinc]

true

[elder stone]

I was just curious if you wanted to play 2v2 (causally) and see where I could improve

I’m Plat 3 currently

[cyan sage]

casual wont really show what you need to improve on

[frail zinc]

uhh I mean sending a comp 2s replay would prob be more benificial

[cyan sage]

^^

[lethal glacier]

I expect someone that can 1v2 on offense to be able to play defense

[cyan sage]

he's on xbox, taunt him more @frail zinc

[elder stone]

Oh I can do a match real quick

[frail zinc]

oof

[elder stone]

I’ll save the replay from that

[frail zinc]

uh if your not pc then it wont matter

[cyan sage]

wont do much good tbh, you can upload it to yt, but the coach wont be able to control the replay, so most wont want to do it

[frail zinc]

and I doubt anone in plat uses ballchasing

[elder stone]

I could get rocket league on my laptop 💀

[cyan sage]

find a pc player in plat3, play 1-3 matches with them without comms, and have them save the replays, honestly only way to do it

[cyan sage]

do that then, if it gets 60fps, no difference

[frail zinc]

I mean that works doesnt even need to run

[cyan sage]

and anything, literally anything, should get 60 on RL

[frail zinc]

the replays should save onto your pc

[elder stone]

Whelp okay, sure

[cyan sage]

is it cloud? i didnt know that, peak

[frail zinc]

from console as I think they get saved to the cloud

I mean my replays saved when I reinstalled windows and shit on my pc like a week ago

[cyan sage]

how'd you even uninstall windows

[frail zinc]

uhh just wiped it then re installed it using my boot drive then re downloaded all my launchers from a zip file I made

do it like once a year to get rid of bloat and excess files that kinda got lost in the mess

[cyan sage]

fair enough

[elder stone]

Whelp uh

I don’t think it’s installing tn

[frail zinc]

rip

[cyan sage]

bro on that ireland internet

[cobalt crane]

Bro, I’m finally gonna be on pc in a week

[elder stone]

That’s a lot of space

[frail zinc]

W

massive rank increase inbound

[cyan sage]

pc's are 1/2 the price of what they were half a year ago ong

[frail zinc]

just because the gpu market isnt as bad

[cobalt crane]

Unfortunately not, pretty hard to push past mid gc1-gc2 super quick

[cyan sage]

nah, it's cause ddr5 and all the new stuff dropped as well

[cobalt crane]

Yeah I dropped a little over 2k on it

[cyan sage]

1tb m.2's are 60USD compared to the usual 100-110USD

[frail zinc]

I mean youd be suprised homie, the refresh rate + no input lag + better training tools go hard

[elder stone]

Well it’s downloading

It’s actually going faster than I thought

It’s already 1 percent done

[cyan sage]

depends where he is in gc, if he's real gc (1515) he might go up to gc2, if he's psyonix boosted, (1435) he might go up to high gc1 or low gc2

[cyan sage]

🧍‍♂️

[frail zinc]

true but he might not have got that, not needed really atm can wait at least another year b4 ddr5 is worth prob

[elder stone]

I mean that’ll mean it’ll get done in a hour

[cobalt crane]

Well if I were to hard sweat I can push to 1600 rn but I prefer to just chill around 1460-1500

[cyan sage]

thats what im saying, ddr5 release and ddr4 became cheaper

[cyan sage]

just like me fr

except i dont hard sweat to 1600, i just play more than 5 games a week

[cobalt crane]

Might switch back to the ps4 remote too though, my ps5 one got stuck drift again

[frail zinc]

ah true, I mean it hasnt really been that expensive for a while thio

[frail zinc]

thats what I run, ps4 controller is just goated

[cyan sage]

wtf wrong with all your controllers 😭, i seen so many people with stick drift, wtf you doing with them, slamming them?

[frail zinc]

gotta hit those wall dashes man cmon now

[cobalt crane]

Ps5 remotes get stick drift mad quick

[elder stone]

Yo it’s you

[frail zinc]

and no flips 🙃

[cyan sage]

I've had my xbox one controller since late 2013

it has no stick drift, and still works perfectly

[frail zinc]

what deadzone u run?

[cyan sage]

I've opened it up once to replace the left analog stick bc the rubber fell off after 8 years

[cobalt crane]

My ps4 remote lasted me 7 years with no stick drift but my ps5 got it in less then 6 months with better treatment than the ps4 remote

[cyan sage]

.26 dodge and controller

[frail zinc]

ah I mean ya

[cobalt crane]

Big sad

[frail zinc]

even when my controller was super messed up I could run like .15 I think and not notice it

[elder stone]

Could a ps user coach an Xbox user?

[frail zinc]

had to get a new one to run .05-.07 controller deadzone

[cobalt crane]

Probably, I’m very busy tomorrow though so im bout to head to sleep

[frail zinc]

no because console cant share replays

[elder stone]

Wack but reasonable

[cyan sage]

I dont need low deadzones, all i do is sit in net

[cobalt crane]

You can upload to yt so it’s possible but not as easy

[elder stone]

It’s at 12 percent guys

[frail zinc]

I mean ya, just saying if your playing on that high of a deadzone u might not know if your controller has stick drift or not

[cobalt crane]

Highest deadzone challenge

[frail zinc]

cant view diff povs that way

[cyan sage]

fair enough, i only use it for rl, so it is what it is, i dont even play rl anymore as much as i used to

[cobalt crane]

True, but for under gc1 I can coach without it well enough to help still

[frail zinc]

ig

[cyan sage]

under gc1 is just hit the ball usually tho

[cobalt crane]

Don’t double commit too don’t forget that

[cyan sage]

hell you dont even need to really hit the ball to hit gc1, just fake challenge spam

[cyan sage]

you can double commit if you're fast enough

[cobalt crane]

Fake challenge and bump to be a nerd to gc1

[lethal glacier]

I usually report server spam until it gives me the dub

[cyan sage]

if you're up one goal, and your tm8 abandons match, you can leave and still gain 9 mmr

so if you just party with someone, score one, have them abandon, and repeat, you can hit high ranks for free

[cobalt crane]

Just put on the nick eh 30 anthem for your teammate mid Ariel so they can cook. Fr free W’s

[lethal glacier]

brb gonna practice this new mechanic my coach gave me!

[frail zinc]

lmaooooo

@cobalt crane I dmd u

[cyan sage]

sad part is it actually works, you just need a ton of alts and the ability to score the 1st goal

not even 1st, you just need to be up by 1 at any point before 3:30

idek about the 3:30 part, cause your tm8 can req ff and then abandon, then you can leave and gain 9

[elder stone]

I got a replay

But only on Xbox

[cyan sage]

L

[elder stone]

Surely a rl coach on Xbox exists

[young leaf]

need a ssl to teach me some stuff im GC2 peaked GC3

[mortal quail]

Just upload a recording to Xbox and share link

[frail zinc]

did u check ur laptop?

[languid bear]

Peak in which mode?

I’ve switched to air roll dynamic but I’m not sure to have air roll right on my right trigger or left

And I know the car loses or gains momentum in the air based on if your accelerating or decelerating but not sure which is gonna be better like slowing down or speeding up?

[elder stone]

How

[elder stone]

Looks like it’s done

[elder stone]

Jk I’m uninstalling because that is NOT happening

[hasty relic]

you want to talk I can explain

[latent isle]

woah

[elder stone]

What’s up

[latent isle]

yo

[elder stone]

What’s with the woah

[latent isle]

announcing my presence

[languid bear]

Hey yeah im just not sure on the downsides to driving forwards and accelerating

[elder stone]

Well I guess it worked

You wouldn’t happen to be a god at rl that could teach me everything would you

[latent isle]

nah I'm c2

[elder stone]

That’s a god in its own right

[latent isle]

no

[elder stone]

A god to me, a mere mortal

[latent isle]

c2 sucks

[somber falcon]

+1

[elder stone]

no

Plat 3 sucks

Teach me your ways

[latent isle]

c2 is just better ball chasers

thats all it is

[elder stone]

And that’s all I need

Teach me

[latent isle]

just play the game

you can get up to champ without practicing anything really

[elder stone]

Not quite true

[latent isle]

I've never practiced anything

[elder stone]

How many hours do you have in the game perchance

[latent isle]

2.5k

[elder stone]

Oh for sure

You’ve never practiced anything

[latent isle]

no I just play the game

[elder stone]

For 2500 hours you’ve just played the game

[latent isle]

the closest I've got to practicing stuff is hitting the ball in freeplay

[elder stone]

That’s technically practicing

[latent isle]

well then there you go

I hit the ball in freeplay

thats how I got to c2

[languid bear]

U can get gc with demos and coms

[elder stone]

I need to practice with someone better than me

Or rather play

Because I don’t need to practice

[latent isle]

if you're plat then work on your ball control

[mellow swift]

@elder stone what rank?

[latent isle]

and get better at aerials

[elder stone]

Plat 3 currently

[mellow swift]

i can help

[elder stone]

Right now?

[mellow swift]

eyah

[elder stone]

Awesome

[mellow swift]

*yeah

[elder stone]

Ok uh

Do I invite you or do I need to-

Uh

[mellow swift]

ill DM you

[elder stone]

Word

Coaching would be awesome but even just playing would be awesome

[mellow swift]

i can do both

[elder stone]

Do I really say awesome that often

[opaque rampart]

someone wanna teach me sum mechs?

[languid bear]

what mechs

[brave crater]

How do people speed flip and all that?

[cyan sage]

@blazing citrus check dm

[languid bear]

tiktok it

[sly marsh]

i have a 1000 hours of rl and im plat :I

[charred obsidian]

can someone maybe teach me to slowly start getting the hang of an air dribble? i can aireal im just quite stuck with the mechanics of dribbling

[cyan wind]

Training someone under gold 3, DM me if i can coach you. (I am plat 1 div 1)

[opaque rampart]

any

[languid bear]

what rank are u

[cyan wind]

What rank are you?

[opaque rampart]

Plat 1

[languid bear]

learn how to dribble and flick and patience when playing ranked

[opaque rampart]

I can flick

And sorta dribble

[flint plaza]

am I the only one that thinks that the plat training pack by psyonix is not actually for plats ?

[languid bear]

im getting used to it but its very weird

[languid bear]

dont do their packs

[neon dirge]

thats becuz every player has a different level of skills and also most people rank up due to their game sense not mechanics, ie people in gc who cant air dribble but will surely clap any dia who can

[flint plaza]

makes sense

[flint plaza]

why
I know they are focused on shooting
but they also like real game situations,
get you in awkward shooting angles that plats can't score consistently
and the player can get creative instead of just jumping for the ball and shooting it straight away

[languid bear]

u dont need them at plat

imo just playing more ranked will make u improve the most

[flint plaza]

true
I mean you need them if you are higher than plat
(talking about dia but I don't wanna exclude even higher ranks)

[languid bear]

tbh i think if u just do defence packs that will get u through diamond and most of champ

someone 1v1 me im trying to learn new binds

[muted fox]

ill 1v1

[languid bear]

epic?

[flint plaza]

actually the dia training pack is rly rly good for plats
am impressed

[flint plaza]

speaking of these
what are your favourite defense training packs

[languid bear]

1v1 XD

[silk swan]

anyone need a airdribble coach? or someone to plkay privite with?

[languid bear]

sure

[flint plaza]

I like how you are thinking

😄

[grizzled patio]

can someone explain the new looking for a groupe system

[flat finch]

does anyone think they could hop in a game with me and explain how to dribble? Would be grateful

[flint plaza]

get the training pack from virge dribbling tutorial and follow each step in the vid

[flat finch]

bet

[flint plaza]

you can also start with a simple drill that can look scary for most ppl that don't understand the mechanic

start in freeplay

make sure you are in the straight kickoff

carry the ball on top of your car without any turns

move forward
then backwards
then stop the ball on top of your car (this is the scary part, but trust me it's so simple)

[cyan sage]

currently dia 3,my peak was c2 okay mechs great aeirals game sense and i know how to properly rotate does someone knows what i need to get into champ (i cant solo q)

[solid oriole]

any tips on how to play well with solo q teammates that overcommit too much in diamond 1?

[gusty nacelle]

Can someone look at my replay I think I did really well but would love to see where to improve

[flint plaza]

I needed the same tips
but I think the best way is to find a tm8 that has a balanced playstyle or is just good when playing with you

[solid oriole]

alr thx

[flint plaza]

if you are solo q ing
try play with a different playstyle
like too passive and patient as a last man
then when you become first man either boom the ball, get it to your tm8 or boom the enemy team(my best option lol)

hi.i used to use this server a while back and the looking for group server was different ,does anyone know how i find people like for 2s? or where i can

[flint plaza]

check the "Pinned Messages" in #looking-for-group

[sick flower]

what do you mean

[ancient marsh]

For solo q just play defensive and let your tm8 do his thing

You cant do anything about a bad tm8 so u just gotta let him do his thing and defend and hit the ball well without outplaying yourself

[sick flower]

@flint plaza i cant see any pins or im just blind

[flint plaza]

do you have any tips for reading the play while doing that
especially positioning wise

[ancient marsh]

I dont know wym but for positioning just be positioned far enough to not concede close enough to hit the ball if you need to

[flint plaza]

gotcha ty

[sick flower]

@flint plaza ive done it now, thank you for your help

[flint plaza]

[jaunty basin]

Anyone know how to not get tilted in high c3? My opponents become ssls when I’m div 4

[zinc mirage]

Dms

[dusky fiber]

the closer u get to your goal the more intense it gets, in general think about the time, the season is not even at its half so u have much time dont stress yourself, but not that easy to implement ik

[jaunty basin]

Yea I think the hard reset was the problem

I was gc before

In s6 and 7

[dusky fiber]

switch things up whole time, this works for me, for instance if he is faster because he does the speed flick more fast or something try to delay your kick off, if u position alright u will win, next kick off he will think u do it again, then u switch it up etc. so your opponent never knows whats coming next, this way your unpredictable which is usually pretty good in 1s

[dusky fiber]

yh dont stress yourself, u will get there again

[proven solar]

the problem is i dont get controll of the ball after the kick off i get sent away and he gets the controll the problem is not the speed is where i hit i guess

[low flame]

i need some gameplay tips

i dont know why , my controller is slow

i was gc 1 last ssn

thanks!

idk doesnt feel right, i feel so slow in driibling etc

[jaunty basin]

I really don’t want to stress about it, but I want my gc title back😔

[low flame]

i want to learn some aerial mechanics

[dusky fiber]

usually kick off depends on 2 things that decide if u win your kick off. 1. speed 2 positioning, with the position the more "STraight" u get to the ball and your opponent is slightly at one side u can usually control on which side u want the ball to go, idk how u do for instance a delayed kick off, but i usually just jump 1 time low (soft touch x) and after i touch the ball i wave dash to be faster, just an example tho, u can send me a clip what u mean and i can try to see if i can help with anything

[low flame]

maybe someone can teach?

[jaunty basin]

I hope and I also want to stay in gc and not demote

I’m a demon at shooting

But my flicks and 1v1 plays aren’t that good

[low flame]

fast aerial and air rol i know but how to master it good

im so slow in the sky

im on pc btw

[jaunty basin]

Can you review a replay later maybe

[low flame]

dms?

[dusky fiber]

yh dw u got this, also play more 1s this will help u as u will get in those situations sometimes and this way u know better what to do then

[dusky fiber]

if i find the time sure

[jaunty basin]

Ok I played just 5 games this season😭

I’ll try to

[dusky fiber]

yh def try and play more this will help

[jaunty basin]

What’s your rank bro

[jaunty basin]

I was gonna say you maybe gonna make rlcs

[jaunty basin]

[dusky fiber]

[bronze stag]

@33rixyz

[dusky fiber]

[bronze stag]

@lunar karma

[jaunty basin]

Ik that but if you were younger you could’ve

[bronze stag]

@molten aspen

[jaunty basin]

I don’t think I really can too but I am young, 14 years old

[molten aspen]

what?

[jaunty basin]

With 1000 hours

[naive girder]

@lunar karma

[lunar karma]

any tips to go to c3 this season my peak is c2 but rn d3 looking to improve?

[ancient marsh]

play patient

let them just hit the ball to you

[radiant spindle]

how do you use directional airroll cuz i cant really get my had around it its hard to use and i cant rlly boost while doing it

[lunar karma]

its hard tho

im not sure what im doing wrong i have air mechs but im trying to focus on ground plays and not be silly

[naive girder]

bro ur bad in the air

[ancient marsh]

its not just let them hit the ball, take possession then when they challenge do a simple outplay with a powerslide cut

works in every rank

[lunar karma]

ur 8

[lunar karma]

okay ill try

[naive girder]

im 13

[ancient marsh]

air mechs dont matter below gc tbh as long as you can get like 1 or 2 taps in the air its fine

just enough to defend or hit a ball somewhere

[lunar karma]

6

[lunar karma]

alr ill try

[dusky fiber]

in 2s?

[lunar karma]

yes

[dusky fiber]

try rotating more around the small pads then always focusing on big pads, this makes u stay more in rotation without leaving your mate alone, also try adapting to your mate, dont just blame your mate for everything rather look what u could do better in order to win, try and play more 1s this can also help u improve in 2s as u get in those situations a lot, also try and play less risky, u dont want to leave your mate too much in those 1v1 or 2v1 as they are prob not very good in it

[sterile wave]

hey I’m in d1 and can’t seem to get out of it, does anyone have any tips to get to champ 1?

[lunar karma]

yeah thats what ive been trying to focus on alot more keeping my mindset straight rather than just shouting at my tm8 through the mic,my rotations are usually good im never not there when we are getting counter attacked,im trying to work on bounce dribbles they have been helping me get some easy goals nd that but usually i make dumb mistakes nd even tho i got c1 with 250 hours its still a struggle, ive been pushing for gc this season or next cause i know its possible

[gusty nacelle]

Can someone look at my replay in a call. I think I did really well but would love to see where to improve

[sour stream]

can someone help me get better at 1v1?

[sturdy forge]

shadowing is very important and hitting open nets but every rank struggles with that

[sour stream]

THX

[sturdy forge]

wait depends what rank u are in 1s

[sour stream]

im p2

[sturdy forge]

ah id reccomend consistent flicks then as well, imo 45s are the best and easiest to do
