@dim mulch my issue with jimmy on percs is not his rank, but he believes he is better than everyone in this rank
Like we all were d1 at some point
And managed to get out
Ye true
Actual npcs
@karmic hazel doesnt agree with this
I swear i feel most of people in this channel are trolls like no way
Ok
how to make it so somebody can find my group
I haven't been here since january
how do i get id
Bro pulled numbers out of his ass
no actually
No but like is it real that the same trolls come back
I dont trust the actual numbers u sent
π
Bro its my first day since January i forgot everyone except some people
This jog your memory a bit?
π
I remember ero2bosnia but who r u
what bot do you need for id?
πππππ
I once beat someone on use on 250 ping
Damn bro hes racist fr
Then he called me no skill
but how do i request
Same rank as me
Tbh me personslly i wouldnt coach bosnian too
thanks
I was joking and it was obvious it was a joke but i still got banned
Like someone was saying that "since when discord is allowing kids in" after someone said hes 11
I said im 7 y olds and i got banned
π
But in the context it was obvious its a joke
@karmic hazel how u get 5-1 by me
Bro wakes up early to have more time to hate
Dude I won 5 -4
He forgot his mechs and rotations at home
The first roundπππ
Ok gg
Regain next time
And dont forget to hit the ball
D1s are like gold 3 in 1s no?
Gold recognizes gold
Bro why u hating on everybody let them live peacefully
Bro tagged him
What a good person
As a plat 3 just get better
Kick the ball in the net its not rocket science
Mmm i see
Giving urself a handicap cuz ur just too good
That's a good one icl π
No fr whats ur rank
I think im starting to remember capri
Nah π
The guy who had a different rank each 3 minutes
I think we just saw that
.
Kjoe
. they ruined 16 win winstreak
this is driving me crazy its Shows "Get 15 shots in multiplayer..." is ready to claim when i finish a match but there is no place i can find it, anyone help ?
My lawyer advised me not to comment on this
i cant send pictures can i send it dm ?
My tm8 in 1s threw a 6 goal lead today
Last man cant defend a 40kph shot
Its funny how people.make fun of plat in 1s but im.actually stuck in it
Is ur lastman a disabled person by chance
Im actually plat3 div3 in 1s rn
Its full of people who are champs in 2s tho
I need a coach
i wasnt trying the first 2:30
hes actually bad
Hes D1 what did u expect
he lost 5-1 to me and ragequit half way through
Im shit and im c1
im p3
How about d1
what lol
Lil bro
These guys were having a shit off π
Not even a midoff
Ye for my opponents
I'm unranked ( I'll consider it as bronze) and I can kinda speed flip
Am I going too fast in terms of learning mechanics
What we supposed to do
Yes please slow down zen needs to keep his spot on vitality
Also any tips for hitting aerials harder?
Lmao
Ur corner of the car
Like front corner
how do i use the looking for group section
lil bro
how do i use the looking for group sextion
lol i want coaching
thank you wdym u just?use it
I think the only thing holding me back from ranking up is the long matchmaking times
how do i look for people
No it's ur teammates
Some times they overcommit and knock me out of an open goal
i blame my teammates for me being a gold in solos
Worst part is they use stupid cars
Bro says he can speedflip in bronze bro thats crazy
Although I might be the bad teammate sometimes
Im champ and i cant do an actual speedflip
When we got time can you hop into a private match with me to validate it
Idk if it's done properly but I use my own method
I blame my tm8s in 1s too they always play shit
Own method for a speedflip is CRAZY
Bro has a master degree in trolling
I use Kbm
anyone else here play on KBM?
Damn alot of kbm npcs in here
And the method is W+E switching to S+D
I just air roll and when I almost land cancel it
I play both but got more time on kbm
Wdym troll, most bronzes can speedflip and in their own method too
who
A yt tutorial taught me to use D at the end
for what
Im joking bro about plat3 vs Diamond 1
I tried and it failed so I didn't use it
i destroyed the kid
D key not that D lmao
I swear kbm players have the most stiffest hands
@worthy lava first game i almost clutched without playing first 2:30
Youβre c1 π
Ur plat 3 bro u aint that good either
wow
I wanna send the vid here but I can't
jit trippin
U said ur plat 3 no?
i would obliterate u
Servivor I'm a Plat 3 but I 1v2 kids in my rank..
i am idk what hes on about
U plat 3 in 1s or 2s
2s
Lmao
π
Aint no way u destroying me
What's the purpose of air rolling during aerials
I wanna watch
I can beat a plat while playing with one hand
ight buddy lets play
Its 5am for me lmao
Also ur probably not plat anyway
buddy just play
Join my party Iβll make u leader
i mean i peaked d1
Nkt serv
I didn't sleep nro
Genuine question what mechanics should I know by now
what is sleep?
hitt he ball better
How do I win a tournament
Ikr the grind never stops π₯
atleast quadruple flip reset
Be good at the game
Yeah bro aint no plat
with ur skill level its impossible
losing to me a p3
Youβre the party leader my boy
He aint my friend
i am
skill issue
I mean i could mabye beat a c1.cuz im c1 too π
c1 is only a dream for me
i do not understand where u get the info im c1
i dont think hes playing
Its more of a nightmare than a dream
Tmrw i dont mind playing
Like after 7 hours from now
i be asleep
eternal slumber
whats ur rank
π nah
@worthy lava join bru
Hes gold 2 in 1s and plat 2 in 2s
I turned off like 2 hours ago im.done
Gn anyway guys
Gugu
Sun about to rise π
@rich saffron
can any one help me get better at rl. im currently at g old 2 div 2 and currently getting placements in 3 and 1s.
Go to #looking-for-group then say /looking for group
Can someone teach my how to control my air dribble?
how can I practice the mechanics from 0 ?
I have literally 0 mechanics and I'm diamond but can't go further due to inability to do anything and just scoring out of opponents mistakes
well its impossible to be diamond with ZERO mechanics
give urself some credit bro
but im in the same boat
freeplay
I literally can't do a basic flick or dribble
freeplay then
Youtube tutorials
I tried and I just run around with the balll from goal to goar lol
Training maps
then practice actual stuff
like getting the ball up onto your car from the ground and dribbling
after you can keep the ball on your car dribbling from goal to goal then start trying to turn with it on your car
I mean if u can touch the ball barely and rotate yeah diamonds pretty much there
Iβm gold 2 in 2s and currently getting match ranked in the rest. Can anyone help me?
ok i was on diamond before and NONE OF MY TM8s could rotate
i was getting so tilted
Some people are brain over mechs but most f2p are mechs over brain
Hit the ball
Play, watch some tutorials, practice in training/ training maps, idk
@safe horizon

Youβll get there one day
Then its not broken
Youβre spreading lies
But it works
So idk what you mean
You meant damaged
Its not even related to the topic
@proven star
the bots own goal more than anything else
Did he just get banned
Or soemthing
I got a warning for looking other players to play π
so guys I played the game since 2017 and I changed my air roll but unfortunately I didn't do it in a correct way (my airroll is L2 same as reverse ) and because of that I can't wavedash
do you recommend changing that to another button and if yes which one?
typically you should have air roll bound to the same button as powerslide
also it shouldn't matter if you have it bound to reverse you should still be able to wavedash
I can't wavedash while pressing L2 at the same time because wavedashing requiers airroll and powersliding right?
no
wdym no
all you need to do to wavedash is front flip
How do we use the #looking-for-group on mobile?
yeah you can consider that a wavedash but using slide and airroll is way more efficient esp if you want to do it to a certain direction
it is a wavedash
theres no real use to wavedash in any particular direction but forwards ususally
unless you're in top 1% and need all the speed you can get
it's not that deep just any more speed matters I guess
typically you won't need that extra speed unless you're like grand champ level
but its a good idea to bind wavedash to powerslide
I mean air roll

not much anymore
yes
I still play tho
occasionally
its a good game
it is the story is really engaging
Story
I mean yeah what other reason is there to play genshin except for for the story and decent graphics for being free
there's not that many children
No longer a flying tree
and I vouch for ero
Yea only for 3 more days though b4 I become a flying tree again
most of them are like 500 years old to be fair
it is true
anybody who doesn't play is missing out
rated good/10
be able to hit the ball
Donβt be afraid to boom
learn how to hit the ball with power at the opponents net and you'll be diamond
it only works to diamond
after champ you need to learn control
How do I start/join a looking for group
I boom at gc and some people be wasting 90 boost for the most diabolical hit ever, then free goal
Correct
boom works at every rank but it's not always an optimal solution
not when you boom it at the net and pass the ball to the opponent for free
well typically they'll be at the net defending it
Considering the amount of booms Iβve done I can say that you get more accurate overtime, therefore accurate booms would work one day lol
why do i have 9 pings
Brrrrah
c2 frfr
but I'm the best c2 you've ever seen
I'm pretty good
I never said it was a checkpoint rank
but I can say I'm in the top 5% of all players
thats means I'm pretty good
this means I am better than 95% of players
in which case I am good
I will argue my point endlessly
my ego is too big
the 95% of players I am better than
thats okay
but I still ego
Doubt. I think I played w/ u b4
Epic games hid the players online count lmao
who are you
Red
I looked at the ballchasing replays and this isn't remotely true fr
π§’
listen we all know I'm secretly an ssl
how do i get better im g2 in 2s and s2 in 3s i wanna hit plat in 2s and g3 in 3s
guys is there a rejoin button after abandoning a game?
nope
not that ive seen
sad
need some one better than me to play with/coach me, im d1/d2
Any advice for a returning player? 6 month break, used to be hardstuck Champion 1/2. Want to get back into the grindset but the skill ceiling feels like it's raised a lot since I last played.
The new LFG is real hard for me to find someone. I can't put in any messages or notes. <.<
you need to use a command
I don't think you can add custom notes/messages there.
maybe not custom notes
I want to let people know my old rank and that I'm a returning player so they know what they're getting themselves into.
just run some casuals
How do I message people if they make a command in the LFG?
not sure I've never used it
There's no way to right click them.
maybe you need to message the person directly
Bro I need help
press the @ (name here) and just message em
Ahhh I got it, cheers TPW, means a lot buddy.
Last season I was d2 div 4 and going up but now Iβm plat 3 and going down
yh for sure
Can someone help me
did you take any breaks from the game
just put in time and don't tilt queue
rlinvestor, I'm a returning player mate, I used to be C2 and now I believe my account is in diamond.
We can run some casuals if you'd like?
practice your mechanics in freeplay regularly and keep up with playing
Ok bet
Ok thanks for the tips
and remember as time passes the overall playerbase only gets better, it might not just be you
If you can, record your games, watch it and you'll find mistakes
whats up
Thanks guys
just a practice thing
try flying from one backboard to the other teams backboard
and if you play casuals don't be afraid to go up for balls, the moe you do it the better
settings is all person preference, something that somebody else likes might not be what you like
if you want try to copy a professional players settings because they usually have a decent foundation, and adjust them as you see fit
I'm not sure what mine are
you mean as in like camera settings?
for controls I have mostly base controls apart from air roll and powerslide bound to rb
idk my camera setting by heart
@covert rover
steering sense is 1.4 aeirial is 1.6
@hoary bane
Hi
Hi
@stiff wadi
@kindred trout
Bro I donβt wanna play ltmπ
any d3 - ssl wanna coach me while we play duos together
my car feels heavy in the air when i try to control it, any tips?
Adjust your Ariel sensitivity or it might just be the car ur using
Put the joystick in the top left corner or too right and double jump and move the joystick down to the bottom
He went to sleep
I think
im using fennec, should i go higher on aerial sens or lower
Higher for it to be faster and fennec normally feels heavier compared to most cars
mine is at 1.6
Mine is at 2,0
yours is just pretty slow
Wait the post warrior what rank are you?
c2
Dang
R
Lol Iβve been hard stuck diamond for like 2 years
Highest I got was d2 div 4 last season
Could have Golgotha higher but it ended
yea thats like the same with me
damn, that's rough
hovers between c3 and GC1
i need a coach
Nothing seems to work
Lol same
eh, I have also plateaued here for like 2 years
mainly just consistency, especially in defense. I solo q'ed up to GC, and if you are able to play slightly more passively to cover your tm8's mistakes, while still recognizing when and where to strike effectively, you'll get there
gotta keep practicing the fundamentals, car control, recoveries, basic ball control, easy power shots
Ok thx
but you definitely have to play more passively, oftimes in diamond especially, the opponents will panic and clear the ball away when your tm8 goes on the offensive, and if you are able to stay back a bit, it will come right to you, while potentially putting the opponents out of position and low on boost depending on how they challenged and cleared the ball
you can also apply pressure through fake challenges and good positioning while keeping a lid on your boost, forcing them to make predictable mistakes and then counter attacking when they are low or out of boost
learn how to flip cancel first
go watch a tutorial
then do that, diagonally.
that's literally all there is to it, plus a little adjustment on the landing
yo guys, i need help i was hardstuck gold for abt 2-3 years and last season hardstuck plat, then i quit for a bit and now im coming back, any new metas or how to get out of plat and improve in general. i would like to get the most out of this game since ive poured almost 3000 hours and im just stuck. help lmao....
put time in training to practice mechanics, those are pretty much all you need up until high diamond low champ, then play and watch tm8s and learn game sense. game sense can be practiced in cas as well
ok, i really need to learn game sense.
Takes time, and you can't just play to play. you have to play and focus on where you are, where opponents are, where your tm8 is, your boost, your tm8's boost, the way your car is pointing, all of the different aspects all at once and be able to make quick decisions on where to go and what to prioritize based on what you predict will happen next
i kinda already poured 2 years into mechanics since right from the start i tried to be like pros and freestylers, when i didnt need it at all and that lead me to being hardstuck.
recognize they are doing it, then take control of the ball on kickoff instead of hitting it into them
okay, tysm
no worries
@grand osprey should i find a tm8 so we can com?
yeah, slow down right before you hit the ball, hit it softer, and take it into a dribble or take a controlled hit around them. If they delay it, you basically have guaranteed possession of the ball
up to you, it isn't necessary, you just have to pay attention to where your tm8 is, when they pick up boost, and learn how they generally play within the first 30 seconds or so, so you can play around them and help them. If they are smart they should be doing the same thing, and then boom, instant teamwork
ok. tysmmmm
only problem is most tm8s you will have at your rank are very much NOT smart, but that is just how it is
i can concurr
yea rn im unranked
can someone explain to me how people like squishy have there air roll right on square but boost on circle how do they hit air roll and boost and jump at the same time
im being queued with plats
long thumbs?
Anyone got any good tips for someone who stoped playing for awhile
go into free play, focus on enjoying the game again before trying to improve
Thanks
I used to XD. at some point it just becomes muscle memory and feels weird to do it any other way, I did it all the way until champ
wht do u use now
I have air roll left bound to R1, or RB for xbox controllers, and unidirectional air roll and powerslide on L1
is it bad to do use both air roll right and air roll left
i think its just preference
cuz thats what im stuck on but like im trying to only learn 1
cuz i go up for ball and kinda just pick which on lmfao
nope, it is all personal preference. It is recommended you use at least one, so that you have access to all three planes of motion at the same time
leads to more control over your car
and depends on the wall im on so my car doesnt roll the other way
i like left better i feel more comfortable with left
but like idk how to stop using right sometimes my brain just uses both
unranked rn. but low plat last season i played
Left feels best for me, but again it is personal preference
you?
almost champ
hey guys im stuck at high gold anyone want to join me i'm chill and have mic
lmao
this spot is better than the actual lfg thing apparently, because that new command sucks
fr
you have to search for the person's username on the sidebar to message them, and half the time it isn't even them
yea
they need to configure it to where it actually gives the persons profile to select and send a dm, so that you don't have to go out of your way to search
the join voice function of it is nice, but maybe 1 in 50 of the people who post actually use it, so it is near pointless
is it bad that i play on epic games launcher?
nope
okay thought it was for a moment tbh
well, you can't get it on steam anymore
oh fair
Specifically like the amount of people who have their username as just a !
can i get help im hard stuck plat
@cyan sage
no ur a gorilla tag kid
nah we playing 2s anyways
coulda said that
have a good1 G
u 2
can i get help with my rank, im trying to get out of play 3, to reach diamond
can anyone help me get out of gold aha been up and down ranks all night like a roller coaster
Eclipx, we do not want to rate your freestyle clips
he has been spamming and asking everyone lmao
well, not quite spamming
lmao
you have asked basically everyone who was part of the conversation earlier their ranks, and if they would rate your clips lmao
not at all, and I never said it was a problem lmao. No need to get upset
fair enough, there is no problem then
ohhhhh gotcha. delay it yourself to kinda make it a regular one then
apologies for the misunderstanding earlier, it kinda just ends up being a timing battle. You also have to focus on how you flip, so you can recover quickly afterwards and aren't sent too far
youtube can, unfortunately those are both purely timing based things, mechanics that you have to get a feel for yourself and can't quite be taught past just being told how to do them
there should be bakkes mod plugins though that you can install to have specific training for them, I know for a fact there is one for speedflip, I used it myself before
like I said before, to speedflip you diagonal flip cancel in the direction you want to go, since diagonal flips give you the most momentum. For fast aerials you jump once, tilt your car back, and double jump while boosting. Make sure not to accidentally backflip when you are doing the second jump, the timing can be pretty tight. Don't tilt the stick back all the way, so you are moving while staying out of your dodge deadzone
Nothing is ever ALWAYS safe, there is always situations where things go wrong. Wavedashes can give you momentum yes, but they could give you momentum in the wrong direction, or completely take you out of the game if fucked up (which I often do lmao)
Bruh I need to stop trying to learn mechs, and focuse on game sense like breh
I feel I'm doing smth wrong but idk what ππ
Mechs are also important to learn, especially the fundamentals
I am pretty sure I learned it from a youtube video, but at this point I can't remember, and certainly couldn't tell you from where
That's probably why I'm not a comp player.
I mean yea I would like to, but I also wanna be very mechanical.
Idk if I'm trying to do to much at once but
the more you play comp the easier itβll be
ty
Is this only PC?
is there anything special w/ them? I just match ball's momentum + flip slightly earlier than I usually would and ball pops
this is for help not lfg
i literally had no clue how to do it, will try that, thanks
@remote geyser
i tend to have the issue where i jump off da ball something tho
what
is there anything good about controlling the ball because for being a plat i have amazing ball control being able to stop it when it smacks the ground and smack it with a certain amount of power
just moving your stick too late/not far enough then (am on kbm so I don't have to deal w/ deadzones). you don't want to delay the jump since your car will separate from the ball before being able to pop it
only other thing I can think of is making sure you do your repositioning before the reset (can be during the preflip ofc if you are flipping into the ball) instead of after like some ppl like to do for chains since you want to be able to land and just instantly flip the ball wherever
i just wanna get them scooped instantly
@atomic magnet u here?
@hollow blade
can anyone coach me im diamond 3 i can vc and screen share
Im newer to Rocket Leauge. So I have a weird rl question so in 1s im silver and 3s im silver but I have been playing 2s with my partner, I hit diamond off of placements. So why cant I climb when I solo queue?
if im good with air roll should i switch to directional air roll or just continue with the normal one
can someone give me some tips ? im gold 1 but i deserve gold3 or plat, thanks
Is ur partner better than u
How do I get under the ball best when air dribbling? My setups are quite good by now but when I rotate the Octane after jumping off the wall the ball is already a little below my car.
First of all u dont deserve another rank if u can't get to it,
Secondly focus on hitting the ball with power and defend.the net
yo how do i contact someone on lfg
Send a clip
Alr wait
i just didnt play ranked for a time
thanks btw
Well anyway even gold 3s should focus on these
thanks
sent it in dm
Why is the bot in LFG showing numbers instead of a name that I can click?
New players rank up much easier during placements
I remember I made an alt and got like 1-2 ranks higher than my normal rank on my main.
U should deff focus more on 1s but it is good to play on a higher rank than u are
Can speedflips be done with W + A/D or does it have to be with Air Roll (Q/E), because it seems to be only doable with Air Roll for the diagonal flip (I usually just diagonal flip with A/D)
I just looks like this, I think I might not be understanding it right. Here I press W + A/D and once I flip (2nd jump) I press S and release it for a sec
Looks nothing like in the tutorials though, which state that it's also possible with A/D
it can be. both forward + air steer/forward + dar both do 45 degree flips
you are flipping way too late. the cancel is too slow
Flipping too late relative to when I start boosting?
flipping too late after your first jump
Oh I see
And then immediately let go of W and press S, which needs to be released shortly and pressed again, right?
there is a bakkes plugin to help w/ practicing speedflips https://bakkesplugins.com/plugins/view/286
And is it alright to always press boost? One less button to time haha
Thanks! Will check it out later
doesn't matter if you boost or not
Iβve adjusted to both directional air rolls and Iβm wondering if I should try joystick air rolling, I never use it and I wanna know if I should really start or if I should just stick to the two air rolls Iβve practically mastered
Alright, thanks a lot!
what key are you releasing and repressing? you just switch from w -> s
The videos say to release s shortly and then press it again (and I release W and press S of course immediately after flipping, or at least trying lol π)
the only time I can think of you needing to release the cancel early is like for twist flips/other preflips?
yes
I say as long as you can diagonal flip you can learn this later when it actually matters. You don't seem to have the knowledge or the feel of your car's control
Alright man thanks for the help!
Yeah thought about that too
I can diagonal flip, probably my most used flip for now
I know gc2s who can't speedflip
Only have like 180 hours or something
I really want to learn though, I main 1s and hate the 50/50 nature of kickoffs
Yeah too early, i would spend my time learning/getting better at essential mechanics
At least at my rank I can outspeed people then
there are many ways to counter speedflip kickoffs
I don't speed flip on my kickoffs and I'm fine
Actually, delaying your kickoff is a counter to speedflip kickoff
And I'm pretty sure plats in 1s don't really speedflip on their kickoffs
What would you recommend? Right now I do a Shadow Defense pack, Thanovic Bronze-Plat Packs and practice some wave dashes (which I can't seem to be able to incorporate yet). Also I want to learn how to hit balls off walls better, trying it in Freeplay a bit
dash recovery (can delay), hard losing it so you gain possession, fake kickoffs, other delayed kickoffs, etc. most important thing is variation
all can work against speedflip.
Yeah but I hate when it sometimes just goes into the goal immediately
Ahh okay maybe not learn it yet haha
If you main 1s then learn to dribble and flick
Flick with power
Thanks anyway for the help! Might still give it a try, sounds so cool
shouldn't if you are goal sided and get a good enough 50
Honestly just enjoy the game don't stress yourself otherwise you will feel burnt out
I can't remember when was the last time i played
should I use joystick air roll or stick to the both directional air rolls that Iβm used to and are binded to the paddles on the back of my controller
you can enjoy this game?
0 hrs p2w
I genuinely enjoyed it back in the days when i was diamond-champ the most. Getting into gc then into ssl was just stressing
I just wanted to achieve x mmr and didn't enjoy the game anymore
I think the only enjoyment I got from it was mech improvement and playing w/ friends
Goal sided?
When your car's ass not pointed at your net
Ah okay yeah
But to the corner
Okay I guess I'll stress less, I just want to learn all the cool mechs haha
True, private matches were the best
Same for me with FN, quit at 4k hours and the time I was casual was best
Don't play anymore?
6k hrs in rl for me
You're not*?
Not what
playing*
p2w -> past two weeks
Yeah i know
for the other guy
Anyways gtg now thanks a lot for the advice and have a great day π
fax
dia and champ is casual and gc to ssl is just grinding and stressing
Someone tell me why im d2 in 2s but not able to get through plat 1 in 1s?
Its normal
No bro most champ1s are plat2-diamond1
Its just how the ranks work
1s rank is usually lower than other modes
Unless ur like a 1s main
im getting d winners in plat and gold 1s--
Yeah, it's because most players are more secure when challenging because they have tm8 in their back, so they're not scared. I'm C1 in 2s, and D3 in 1s, but that's just because I play 1s a lot, if not I'd be around plat3, d1.
If they make a mistake, they don't have a tm8 to correct it, that's why.
Ye i said unless ur like a 1s main or play alot
Average c1 is in around plat 3
Me myself im plat 3
Yeah, most 2s player don't know how to play 1s
even gc1 are only around d3 I already played against a lot of them and sometimes they still lose, they don't have 'experience' in playing alone
Na ive hit c1 in 1s this season
Can any gc help me with something
Looking for a coach
2s rank?
Anyone knows how i get more powers behind my shots ? In freeplay ect its easy but when i que 1v1 is suck
Dropped from c3 to c1
Hit the ball with one of the front corners of ur car and do training packs
Workshop maps are also good
I can do that in 2s and 3s but when im playing 1s i dont get power at all
The physics arent any different in 1s
Im gc so i know all that
But i just dont get power form some shots that i flip cancle and hit with the corner of my cat
Whats the problem then
What rank are you in 1s
The speed that your car is going at the ball also matters in the power of the shot
Show us examples
@stone galleon Youre c3 right?
GC1/C3 ye
Ur going slow is my guess
That too but when the play is slowed down how am i gonna hit the ball with speed over him ?
Bc that always happens to me
Im c1 im not one to talk about speed
Im c1 div 3 rn but i can get much higher if ik hit the ball with more speed in slow plays
You can hit it relatively fast
Yeah but there recovery is often faster
But I'm guessing you are slowing down for no reason while they still have momentum
That is also a possibility
Or you just don't know how to power shot cuz nervous
You can do a low 50, you dont have to always hit it over
So show us an example
Probably that too bc in 2s and 3s power shots are no problem
What rank are you rxxy
I haven't played in a long time, what gamemode though?
1s and 2s
1s in unranked and 2s i would probably drop to like 1700
Nicce nicee thats high 1700
I have been playing for a long time so it's not really high
We can do some 1s btw to see your problem
Yeah sure
Yeah i came from a 1 year brake im playing for 2 weeks now
So everything is still a bit rusty
Lemme try to remember my account
xD
Oh believe me you will be fine
hit the ball off wall and brake ur car for a split second and then jump off wall while boosting
anyone here GC2-3 or maybe even SSL?
I just played a scrim and i would like to have the replay analysed, I have 3 of them, but its fine if you only wanna do 1.
DM Me
@worthy lava im awake now
@twilit pewter
I would just like to know what to improve
Im not home rn
how to get out of hardstuck diamond 1 div when my teamates BLOW
don't suck as much as the opponents and your tm8?
i cook the entire game, my tm8 overcommits and we lose
ima just buy a boost to c1
whats the point in that?
then don't go for plays that overcommits you, causes a slow recovery, or you to use a bunch of resources so that you can get back and not leave your teammate in a 1v2/1v1?
any body gc or ssl who wants to coach me a bit ping me or dm me
i play like a c1
you are d1
no u dont
i keep up in c1, i just cant get out of diamon
i do tho.
your rank says otherwise.
I can keep up in gc3 doesn't mean I am gc3
if your not c1 then your not c1
@rare linden im in
@slate linden
Anyone willing to coach me? dm me for details
Does anyone know how to fix matchmaking so u have sentient tm8s
@noble sable

π
do you do areal and is your defence good
ill join u guys if you want
oh just pracise basic shots and dodge into the ball for power

I need a plat or diam
then slow down look for setups
whats your rank
I'm gold
so why are you wanting to coach people?
Pls
oh shoot
I need someone to goatch me
anyone have any tips for c2 player trying to hit c3-gc1?
@zenith nacelle pls goaching me
ahaha
just try to learn how tof drible
bro i'm only c2 find someone better lmao
Ok thanks
and try to learn how to do half flip
I want to go platinum but I'm already gold
nah
champs or higher usually go to gc or ssl for help if they are hard stuck
the way i think of it is, 1s are for training and then 2s is where you do the skills
but it depends what you want to rank up in
yea realistically
get the reset, front flip then cancel. timing is key with it
but ppl start doing taht in diamond 2/3
whats your rank
Yo
im guessing gc1
i donβt play ranked
Pretty sure nat is talking about the pop resets where you flip instantly not the front flip cancel scoops/recovers
freestyle?
yes
ahh
i did get gc though
thats cool
bro just play, have fun in freeplay and you'll get better, nothing to it really just invest time in the game
nah working
fair
ah, well then itβs literally just diagonal flips @cyan sage
sorry i find it funny pinging you
Do you speak Arabic?
I need a coach pls
rank?
Plat
how many hrs
How do I get a reset that the ball pops up ??
I don't get notifications unless you are talking about nat
Does anyone offer coaching? Looking to improve my gameplay. Came from a comp fps background. Wanting to take my game to the next level. Please DM
No, the ball goes gets a small pop up
I can do resets fine but for doubles I wanted that pop
so u want the ball to pop a little off ur first reset so u can go for the second
send me a clip of what its looking like rn
?
How do you spawn the ball on your head on free play kbm
one of the number keys
idk which one exactly
I've tried that
What rank?
With bakkes mod correct?
Hello,
I've been stuck in gc1 for little over 2 years and finally made it to gc2 a while ago. Managed to get to div3 / div4, but I still feel like I'm not supposed to be there and I'm getting carried by my teammates. Even though I do have a good / decent game sometimes, I am usually the reason we lose a game. So I'd love to know if there are any gc2 practice courses, maybe some training packs and stuff like that. I mainly need to get more consistent.
dm me
@stuck jay You can also just do any aerial custom training pack and reset shot after takeoff unless it's perfect
never even thought of that tbf
im ngl i aint the type to blame teammates but i stg im not diamond yet because all of my teammates just try aerial shit and whiff
im diamond 1
r u p3
yeah
dm me
You're just as bad/good as your teammates on average, figure out your weaknesses
If all your teammates miss then why arenβt you playing with that in mind? You just play to cover the misses and youβll find that itβll get a lot easier since both sides are gonna be inconsistent
fr
these silly p3 π€¦ββοΈ
lolz
cant read people if they dont even know what theyre doing tho
π€¦ββοΈ
just play safe/third man
or if you're that desperate hit up #looking-for-group
Hey Jack howβs it going
what's poppin
tried that then my team doesnt score because im playing defensive or for passes/set ups. and ive tried lfg no one ever responds
defense wins championships
Built the new pc this week π
ayyyyy!! i'm finally technically playing on pc as well lmao
Don't play for passes. Adapt as the game goes on based on what you see people doing.
also don't play for passes/set-ups in plat
I assure you that if you were deserving of diamond, then that method would work to get you out of plat
when i dont do that and i get aggressive my teammate fucks off somewhere else and doesnt play off of me you havent seen what im seeing lmfao
are you mechy now
yes i have because we've all been in plat at some point
@cobalt crane gonna become a fp main
Significantly more than before (I can now do 2 touch aerials)
ill get you some clips
better than ero and he is already on pc
Classic
are you implying that you get worse teammates at your rank more often than other people get worse teammates?
because it's wild how many people in here believe that
if everyone thinks they're getting the worst teammates, then you're all getting the same quality teammates
Yes obviously, Psyonix has him on the list of people they give bad teammates to (and good opponents)
Rocket league players when someone tells them they can improve on something (their ego is too big so they must blame teammates instead)
i thought they got rid of the supersonic plat emoji for a second
i was about to be pissed
#gameplay-tips complainers trying to improve themselves instead of their teammates challenge (impossible)
Iβm pretty sure thatβs itβs not actually that your teammates sucks itβs that thereβs no chemistry or that your play styles donβt work together. Sometimes it is just your teammates r not great tho
when does vitality play?
I came back from vietnam yday and I was able to hit a quad reset but failed to hit a rolling ball in comp
just casually vacationing in vietnam?
it's my teammates
CCH god returns
family
i dont really have an ego ive been working on shit and ik i have flaws im just talking about the fact that most of my teammates miss the ball when its rolling right at them and i have quite a few clips of that happening
oh dope
going to germany on sunday for rlcs
hella jealous
Okay? Youβre in platinum. If you expect platinums to be perfect thatβs a tough reality check
Nice
one day i'll go to rlcs
I am also hella jetlagged
Play a game where you play aggresevley, and then, play a game where you play extremelly passively, save both replays, and find a middle ground to make ur gameplay style.
you should if you ever get the chance/have one within driving distance or whatever
confirmation bias, you probably miss nearly as often and your teammates hit the ball plenty, but it immediately hits your notice if they miss
next time it's on the east coast in the US i'm going
how much were your tickets?
there was boston recently
Yeah not every situation has a good solution and it doesn't necessarily mean you shouldn't trust your teammate at all that game either.
yeah i shoulda gone
i'm gonna be the oldest person at a lan aside from Johnny and Gibbs lmao
im d2
iirc about 100? i just remember it being similar to spring major/the dreamhack and cheaper than last worlds in dallas
main costs for this trip were ofc flights, accommodations, other travel
Itβs like how if people go to a restaurant, theyβre not gonna leave a review if the food is good but nothing crazy, hell they probably wouldnβt leave a review if itβs amazing, but if that stuff is bad? For sure they leave a review
boston looked fun but missed it since I had my trip to vn was gonna be the day it ended
i think it's also the whole thing where people spectating tend to underestimate the rank and overestimate their own. I remember people would watch johnny's replay reviews of like, champs and gcs and say "dat looks like my diamond/plat games!!" all the time
even flakes got tricked into watching his own replays a few times and called himself trash
there's ppl older lol. retals dad for ex
does he play rl too?
man some of my friends are becoming dads now
things are getting weird
Then thereβs me who calls themselves trash on the reg
same
π€
not sure but he is usually in the crowds/nearby watch parties (when there is no public viewing) being a hype man if his son is playing
lolz
watching and playing always feels different
ik i def feel a lot better playing than when i watch my replays
even when i watch ones i saved from particularly good games i feel like i look diamond
anyone here c1 or higher?
yes
tips to get out of champ?
if you hand deliver me a pc to play on
ahaha
1v1s for example me π π
im so bad at 1v1s lol
Plat 1 and maybe like 15hrs, Made to D1 last time I played
im d1, and need a coach π
@coarse stone
i need a coach
@urban tree 12-3 is crazy
hes worse
oh lol
i just 12-3 him and im p3 @languid meteor
@languid meteor dms
hmm?
i mean my lag was bad but if u really want to we could 1v1 again on my servers?
yea in 1s in p2 so well done p3 beat a p2 no way
@lament belfry where have you gone
Yh
For the speed flip musty plugin, how can I change the game speed manually? Is that even possible?
i 1v1 grape
Also the Plugin indicates red for a 45 degree dodge angle, but AFAIK you cannot dodge at other angles diagonally on KB? Is the plugin just incorrect with the indication (since red is supposedly incorrect)?
Also it tells me to keep pressing Throttle even though I am supposed to switch from Throttle (W) to S? That's what all the guides say
wdym
how do i make contact with the ball before it starts to drop while air dribbling? i cant boost to the ball and air roll to be straight at the same time because i start to lose control when i do that
Free GC coaching for anyone interested
@cloud thistle
?
when taking an air dribble off the wall brake before making contact so you can keep it up. And then off the ground focus on staying under the ball with a double jump. Let me know if this helps
yo?
brake after u make contact* otherwise u dont hit the ball at all*
first hit the ball up with decent speed but dont let it touch the ceiling, then tap brake to stay lower. jump off and u are more under the ball
For 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
Yeah dont you shouldnt it messes u over
step 2 is wrong
dont get the ball as high as possible. keep the ball close.
u read it wrong
If u hit it away its only gonna get extremely hard to get control again
thats what im trying to do but i cant get to the ball fast enough and that leads me to not being able to carry long enough
gg bro that was fun
I didnt, I cite: "try to get the ball as high as possible without it touching the ceiling"
@golden rapids match ur speed to the ball
gg
i mean i dont think a p3 should be able to 12-3 a p2
ye p3 alr lol
haha
yeah but u just said u hit it up as high as possible. you dont, u hit it up a little but not far at all otherwise keeping control is horrifyingly difficult
how long does it take to learn breezi flick?
I sometimes like my airdribbles further off my car so I can accelerate and beat a defender when I have to.
yes, and i agree with that statement, if u follow my steps u are close to the ball, and ideally the ball should be as high as possible, i never said to push it away from u, its a general statement that u should get it high as possible when jumping off with the ball
u can do any
long. too long. learn musty properly first
My bad
idk how to musty on ground
the technique is easy, the set up and using it is hard
learn that first, then come back for breezi
its lowk not that good i think 45 degree flick is better
musty too hard learn triple jakze flip into triple tap post pinch first
thats what im sayin
but u make it wayyyy hard for urself, just keep the ball close. if you hit it up hard u give it to the opponents regardless. keeping close really is just better
if u keep ball close then u cant flip reset
well kinda
if u kepe the ball close ur not able to 210930 flip reset into a musty triple tap
π₯±
yeah okay but still if u hit it up real high its gonna be way easier for defenders to save. id keep it around middle height and just close. not as high as possible otherwise I have no chance of scoring it
