Fast Ariel
I know how to
Cap

If u in gold u don’t know how to do it efficiently and consistently
I do
Ok
U did or na?
Jovan when you go for air dribble do you boost when you hit the ball
I know how to start air dribble but dont know how to finish
What is stoping you from finishing
SSL in 3 modes
What is ur rank in duo
Gc3 ssl in 1s 3s and drop shot
💀
Can u join me kirby
U do know that u cant directly teach an air dribble right- just watch a YouTube video
Ya I can join let me finish this video and I’ll inv you just pm me
Imma dm u
what why r ur linked accounts diamond then]
anyone that can vc to help me and my plat friend pls dm me
can Anyone help me learn how to air dribble
Can you wavedash to the right?
i need to learn how to flip reset
Yea, the timing is tough to get but not im used to it
Anyone got tips for c1?
Is there a general chat in this sever I can’t find it?
#rocket-league
Personally I prefer powerslide on L2/LT and my reverse on L1/LB(I know this might be cursed but it helped me with the wave dashing and stuff. Half flipping has become a problem because muscle memory and since I dont have time to practice it after changing my bindings like that ehhhh)
can a high level message me please
yo whne his new season coming out
now
i would recommend try playing with 1-2 other players(depending on the mode) and play during times when most players are online to lessen the possibility of running into smurfs. If solo-queuing try playing as passive as possible to reduce risk of losing, other than that you’re going to be there for a while until you get good enough to get out of that rank
i was hard stuck in gold for like 4 months until i ranked up with some friends and got out
looking for kbm player that can tell me what im doing wrong with speed-flips. Im c1 and just cant get over with it
my tip is dont play kbm haha
well if you can, try to find some friends you can play with around your rank bc it’ll help out a ton. challenging though, ig risky challenges are good but that’s something you can learn along the way, although if you play ones then you can learn a lot faster about what to go for and what not to go for.
Training packs? give me a hour or so bc i need to find them and i’m in school rn lol so i’ll send you like 3 different ones you can do. it’ll be defending, shooting, and aerials
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RZebwwQHvXgPm_TodWLOHJbBihqXAYdfIZDEMG87Veo/edit?usp=sharing
You can find good packs, but freeplay also works out
shoot i might use that
i love the porsche but the turning radius feels weird. do different cars have different turning radius? it feels much harder to turn than the fennec/octane
Im pretty sure it varies very slightly
Yo
whats the fastest way to turn your car from a stand still?
Can anyone give me tips on how to improve my air dribbles
Half flip?
make sure your movement in the air matches the ball, and when you come of the wall make sure your car is pointed towards the ball
Should I be jumping off the wall immediately
im talking about a situation where you just need to adjust slightly left or right, like there are times where i hurry back to the goal, turn around for the save, but then i stop slightly off from where i would want to be
Powerslide?
Can someone suggest me a good controller to buy from Amazon for PC?
Uh, if you want it to last >6 months, prob none lmao but ps5 works unless you wanna drop $200 on something
like 3/4 of a second after the ball gets hit
Any normal xbox or PS controller would be fine
Should i carry anyone to champ ?
i would suggest you look for some kind of warranty as well, so when your controller inevitably breaks you can exchange it and just renew the warranty instead of buying a new controller every time
any good resources/yt channels to learn?
was the reset ass again or
are u actually bosnian
anyone wanna watch me play and tell me why i suck ass?
Yes
im croatian lol
Any1 how do i flip reset musty?
can you consistently reset and hit the ball somewhat well after?
you wanna get the reset more underneath the ball than behind it so you're closer for the musty
Ok
i agree
guys
im dia2 in 2s but isuck at 1v1 im like gold 3 plat 1 why can it be and how can i improve myself?
yes i feel the same :D
since ur so used to 2s ur used to having a tm8 cover the places that u cant cover
so ur not inclined to cover those areas even when its just u
most players a rank or so lower in 1s than in 2s
yes but i even lose to golds
one reason can be im trying to pass air roll
i am trying to stop normal aerialing
and that causes lots ball misses
learn directional air roll aerials in freeplay/training and use it in game when you're consistent
going for it in game before you can even hit the ball consistently will obviously make you lose more because you're just overcommiting for 0 reason
Baby bonez on youtube has good tutorial, basically says learn specific inputs at certain points of the air roll first, and build from there
daily practice
Cap
Im high plat and low diamond should i practice flip resets and air dribbles?
I don't think u need flip resets till like grand champ
I mean i can get flip resets bassicly every try its just scoring is a little harder
if you air dribble and flip reset on plats and diamonds I think you'll be called a smurfer
i dont do it in games becayse they arent super good yet
how?
I just flip reset musty from half feild 😭
i thought air roll aerialing is just for looks
im jus a mechanical plat
it gives you more control
and yes air roll is way better
once you can do it at least, of course not if you cant do it (thats the point of learning it)
whats the #1 mechs u need to stay in diamond
you dont, just get consistent at shooting, saving, and having a brain to pass and not double commit and stuff
Flip reset
wtf, fr?
not fr at all
why not learn them early
one of the most used mechs in higher ranks
Thats what ex GC players have been telling me, I definitely make mistakes but for the most part I have really solid rotations and defense. I really only drop goals in ranked when me and tm8's get greedy trying to score more goals when winning by a good margin and over commit or from freak of nature boomers that go across the whole field into our net in like 5 seconds.
Its pretty rare I get scored on when Im back and I usually rotate well for that, aside from the occasional whiff or bad touch which naturally Im working on consistency.
oh if theres a "mechanic", i would recommend backboard defense (?), if you can clear the ball while its rolling from the corner along the backboard to the front of your goal, then thats a lot of goals stopped
And backboard reads ^
doesnt mean double taps but being able to read the ball of the backboard is a really usefull skill
Honestly with backboard Id say its safer to assume a more powerful bounce, you can always clear the distance quickly if needed and it seems to be way less common that the ball just drops gently
anything to stop your opponents from having a point blank range shot into your net, clear the balls when its dangerously close, which does include stopping the ball when its about to bounce off your backboard into the opponents possession for them to shoot again/double tap
if you really want to get good just play freeplay for hours trust
Dont even need to clear often, just put the ball in a difficult to shoot position so that its not free and gives you precious extra seconds
So shadow defence basically?
yeah, ig its also important not to clear as a pass to your opponents and instead have the clear pass to yourself or teammate
completely different things
So why do you lose enough to not be c1
shadow defense is when youre following the opponent from the side as theyre dribbling towards your goal kinda, and you can choose to challenge at any time
sheeeesh i just hit my first flip reset musty double tap gahh damnn
im litterally a mechanical plat
I rather spend hours in freeplay a day getting good
Ive been comfortable in D3 and winning casual 2's against champs and some ranked 2's against champs. Its just me and teammates make enough mistakes or they get enough lucky full field goals that we drop and we dont know when to stop queueing when we are going down hill. Its probably as simple as I need to stop playing ranked after I lose 1-2 matches.
But I didnt ask for hypothetical criticism, I was giving information on what Ive been told and believe is true about my gameplay and asking for tips to improve.
good (at mechanics)
It helps you learn how to use your car better and get more comfortable with things thatll happen in a real game
@mortal quail can you give me tips to get out of unranked
Hitting the ball around in freeplay is really good practice
the mechanics part of the game
play your 10 placement matches
Reading the ball of bounces, flicks, hitting the ball on net with power, ect rotations are the easy part
and thats what freeplay trains
yessir
and thaz called mechanics
and game sence
completely different things
thats the easy part tho
you predict how the game will go based on the positioning of players and everything, and you act accordingly
Queue dropshot
says the guys whos plat despite hitting a flip reset musty doubletap
i dont play ranked really
🤢
I havent tried to push ranked
im diamond despite missing 50% of my aerials and air dribbled 10% of the time
"since i dont practice game sense, its the easy part of the game"
if you had game sense alone without mechanics im psure you can reach gc
idk maybe i enjoy freeplay thougu
enjoy what you want but that doesnt change the fact that it doesnt train game sense
Ima just sit in the oven till im ready yk
That checks out, playing ranked it really felt like a lot of diamonds belonged in plat 3 or maybe my plat 3 games used to have a lot of diamond players who deranked or smurfed.
im pretty confident i could beat mid diamonds in 1s
Diamond in 1s is a bunch of high champs and low gcs
That dont mean anything, theyre different games
1s is a very digferent
i dont play 2s
then dont talk as if you know it
Im diamond 3 in 2s but after placements this season I was Plat 1 in 1s
Im pretty sure ik my way around 2s
Then your opinion is invalid 😂 good 1s players suck in 2s tbh, worst teammates Ive ever had for the most part
hes plat in 2s
pharel Im sorry but myself and a Plat 1 could easily brazil you in 2s Im pretty confident in that
it would be a 2v1 wym
In what world? 😂
😳 showmatch is when?
he means you and another guy
Oh
Why would you assume a 2v1 when we are discussing 2v2's 😭
In 1's you could beat me because goals are so easy to come by in that gamemode, the optimal strat is to get a 1 goal lead then just time waste.
If he was gc in 2s
He should be able to 2v1 a plat and a diamond
But in 2's the team play matters more than any individuals skills because nobody below SSL or maybe even higher is gonna hard carry
Thats wrong
In what world does a GC drop to Plat 😭
Below gc2 it's just 2 1v1s
Im pretty sure i could but i said i just grind freeplay now
A boosted one probably
nope
Or one from season 1 OG
I hit it in season 5 free to play
(There was no gc og s1)
Yes thetr was
And your plat in 2s now?
You outta your mind. Even in Diamond 1 people start decent team plays, and by Diamond 3 its commonplace.
Only bronze silver gold plat
Lol no
I got to c1 without using boost
I have a friend who go to c2 only driving backwards
ion play 2s ive been cooking in freeplay sence i came back to maining rl
A teamplays tend to be a down side as overcommits and double commits are common
i could probably get lower champ id say if i mained 2s
Okay? Theres people who play games blind or win chess tournaments using....nvm. That means nothing.
2s is just boring imo
True
3s is more fun
Ive never tried 3s
Pretty sure the point he trying to make is that different ranks have different skill gaps
i mean on low ranks 3s isnt that funny
I dont get how its boring personally, theres not usually downtime. 1's is a 50/50 staring contest and 3's is way too fast and chaotic for me, the communication you need and the fact there is ALWAYS somebody in the way of what youre tryna do, it just isnt my gamemode.
If i played 3s i dont want random que
plus i like ones more because ik when stuffs my fault
And what i should of done different
No pretty sure hes just trying to say that getting champ should be easy because someome with thousands of hours can do it handicapped.
I literally have less than 200 hours getting to Diamond 3 is impressive enough.
2s is eh for me at least because a lot of the goals are just lucky, like the players won't score that anymore or just an unfortunate event. 3s actually takes work to score and usually multiple mistakes lead to goals
Wasn't your original arguement about no one below gc2 or something being able to like 1v2 or something
Nope
He was saying i would suck in 2s
I said nobody below SSL or higher is gonna hard carry a 2v1 in THEIR OWN RANK
Oh
You have 200 hours and your talking like you know what's going on
That makes more sense (but still it happens tho)
Dunning Kruger effect moment
i think itd happen, ive seen soft and pretty hard carries happen in my games, whether it was me or my teammate
That moment when somebody learns about a game before playing it? Wow shocker
SSLs still have their moments of 1 guy doing the most in a 2v2
I have like 700 hours in freeplay rn 😭
There is a massive difference to playing and watching YouTube
Watching rotational videos won't make you good at rotations as a gc
Also you can't really judge someone for being good based on hours (it depends how someone spends those hours)
Yeah of course but its not realistic to expect that or anything, I was explaining to a 1's player that them being good at that doesnt translate to 2's because the teamplay is so important.
If I spent 1k hours playing only with friends casually for fun, does that determine I should be a certain rank?
whaaaat
What do i do if my teammate is a ball chasing loser
Let him chase
how do u do that, I have 500 hours in the game total
Freeplay is how you get better im tellin you
1s players with half a brain should be able to translate into 2s, as individual skill is harder to come by than teamplay
However not always the case
at mechanics*
Most good players have a TONS of hours in freeplay
Stop throwing, if you know theyre gonna ballchase play around it, rotate back. Every goal unless scored by your tm8 is equal part your fault.
and they have a ton of hours in ranked
your point being?
I keep getting demo’d then my teammate leaves an open net
dodge demos
Dodge demo
What exactly is directional air roll?
jump and boost midair/wavedash when you land for speed
If only 🙏
air rolling while being able to change the the direction and stuff prob
I think its been too long since you were in diamond and champ lobbies. Ive met so many champs in this server who can do every like GC 1 mechanic semi consistently at least but still cant rotate and defend and drop all the way to mid Diamond.
Keybind that allows your car to spin on an axis independently of your controls, this allows much greater control over your car
o
Dont get demo'd
any good tutorials for that?
Most of the mechanic Champs and diamonds aren't 1s players. Totally different styles
And I coach champ and diamonds pretty often, I know how they play
Freeplay lol, takes a long time to get used to
Ive been using left and right for a long ass time do you think i should change?
if youre on pc bakkesmod rings maps
No reason to
directional air roll is left and right air roll
or wait no, wdym left and right
Probably both
i have left airroll on my LB and right airroll on my RB
You know how people who go for coaching play
left air roll and right air roll seperately bound as two different buttons is directional air roll
I've coached more diamonds than you have hours in the game
They all play similar enough with similar issues besides a few who just lack mechs.
mechs?
Most have decent enough mechs, just ballchase too much. Some have good gamesense but cannot do shit on the ball
what are mechs
Mechanics
o
Tldr, when your on the ball
Are they just called delayed mustys?
Idk how to explain it
Like watch evample do a musty for example and when its delayed a bit like slower
Breezi flick?
Ye
sent it
Can someone help me learn speed flip
do you think you can coach me? im d2 in 2s but plat in 1s
@mortal quail u got time to do any coaching today?
Remove that last part then maybe
Ah cmon bro
Dm me
Anyone know how to do the flip with the car into the ball? Lmk lmk
Yeah I've done that before
Well don’t keep it to yourself
Tell me your knowledge
Idk how I just keep pressing buttons until someone scores
Did you clip it?!
No 😦
anyone coaching
😮
Ik Ik
atp im so bad ill need it
Bro I was in Plat got diamond know I'm back in Plat 😭
You should try staying in diamond next time
Once I was in bronze and I got into silver then I stayed in silver
Bruh I think I already know to try but idk why I went down
I think it was because you lost too many games
Usually when you loose games you go down divisions
i love this guy
Not what I meant ik how the game works mmr and stuff
any tips for getting better im diamond 2
Nope the highest I got was d2 also
nice
But now Plat 3 div 2
Yeah
im new to game anyone can help out eu?
Sure
i believe thats called a flip
Yeah I tried to do that 3 days ago… pretty intense move
Parzivals done it as well by accident
can someone help w flipresets
what rank are you?

tbh mate wouldnt say you need them
like everything is good and all but after i flip idk what to do i js fall

i wanna learn them just bcs idk
not like im gonna use them but i wanna know how to do it

Tryna keep everyone at your level I see
yo you need help?
I’m gold 2 and can triple flip reset musty double tap

Will coach for free and also looking for people who wanna be coaches dm me 🙂
zamn youre a coach coach
but can you coach coach coach me? id also like to be a coach coach and i dont know where to start
Here's a rookie tip for me: don't flip forward for a speed boost, flip diagonally ESPECIALLY IN KICKOFFS
discord noob here, how do you use the LFG channel?
anyone can coach me?
any tips to get out of plat in 2s with a tm8 that kinda is always on the ball
Type / then follow the instructions
What does the gauge with two Xs flashing red mean? It's making me lose competitive games and I'm rubber-banding.
if your teammate is always on the ball, always stay in net
or at the very least keep a very defensive position
for example staying in mid and reacting to the situation
if the net is literally open with no defenders and the ballchaser teammate cant get it, run out of mid to kick the ball in
if the opponents grab the ball, shadow defend it
if you ever have the ball, pass the ball to your ballchaser teammate and turn back to defense once you see them double commiting
anyone can coach me
Plat 3
EU
PC
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHJHHHHHHH MY GOD WHHYYTTSJRURH I HATE RL TEAMMATES I WISH I WAS A DEV OR SUM SO I COULD BAN EM FHFHXJB BHC
There should be a ranked mode where you can demo teammates
i try dude doesnt let me save it he like go i got it even if i hit it would be the best option
Playing rocket league is like being sisyphus. This will happen over and over again until you quit rocket league.
Coaching for free hmu 🤙
Also looking for coaches too!
True! (Im going insane)
understandable
I’m stuck in plat need some tips
2s
Practice being good with arial hits, same with good strong shots on net, having a good kickoff and rotating
Anyone got ideas what I should practice in c1
The basics
What mode
Are you free rn
2s
I'll be free in a hour or so
Same stuff as diamond just work on it a lot more, reading your enemys and teammates not giving away the ball all that jazz also maybe work on reading backboard too
Ok ty
Pharrell I got up to d3 before almost champ
Back board reads are really usefull for 2s
Guys what do i do no one is this low of rank and i cant find teammates help
why is that
If youre a super low rank just play a lot more you dont need a teammate really atm
Theres gotta be a reason thats a big drop
All the teammates i queue with are garbage
I used to think the same way, but sometimes you might need to take the blame
If you were better youd be a hugher rank
😱
Pharrell how do you speed flip
Play free play thatll help
Tutorial will explain it better than me
Thats true, but i train goalie every day just to train for the ball chasing teammates i get, and im just not Seeing progress
Whats ur rank
I’m gold 3 and hit the crossbar a lot. Does anyone have any training packs to help me.
Silver 2
Play 1s
Ball chase play freeplay thats how you will get better at that rank dw abt ranking up youre gaining skill and learning how to hit the ball
Okie dokie
I just dont like open nets so much
And it takes a while to get better but that will help you learn on getting comfortable with your car and how it works with the ball then youll be ready to learn more advanced things for each rank you hit
Friend inv sent

Hey guy I’m looking for someone to coach me bc I want to improve my skills and grow in the game if anyone’s interested pls dm me
Hey Homies can u help me? I have been hardstuck plat, I have over 450hours and i just need some tips.
i usually play with low diamonds on 1s and 2s
What do you struggle with
idk i usually practice flicks, air dribbles, ceiling shots, dribbles, defending and shadowing
practice only flip resets trust
plus i either get some gold on my team on 2s
ohh yeah I practice that tooo
actually?
focus on more ground plays you cant practice everything and expect instant results
i have like 100 hours on freeplay
i have over 450h
total
tysm HOMIES
to try and get good at dribbles, air dribbles, and flicks, and ceiling shots with just 450 hours you wont improve quick enough
try focusing on one thing first
ok thanks homes
do you think if you practice everything at the same time you get better?
na not really rn im really practicing my air dribbles and flicks
i was talkin to the other guy
air dribbles are fire rn
MB
why do you think i said practice ground playus
lol
what a troll lmao
Can somone help me get to plat : c
look up a classy flick
guys do soneone has tips to get a better control of the car in the air ?
play Lethamyr's rings map on workshop
i dont have rl on steam i only got it from epic store
then just try to fly fast while in very awkward positions and add airroll if its too easy otherwise
Can some help me learn flip resets
bakkesmod
What you having issues on
Getting the flip
I can do the set up but I can't get in the right position to flip
Get the flip*
Ima send you a tutorial if thats aigh?
yeah that would be great
I’m D2 after placements and I was C1 last season. I just played a few games and the guys I went against literally felt like it was C3 in D2 lobby’s any advice?
Its prob not c3 i can tell u, but yh its usual that after a season reset its more hard to play. Just give it some time or see it as an opportunity to play against better opponents to learn something
Ty
I was gonna say bc I was C1 last season and even they didn’t play how some of these “D2s” are.
I need help with my half flips. I'm plat 2 ( ñow unranked ) and I wanna learn the half flip,I have seen some videos but I just can't seem to be able to cancel the flip . Any help?
how are u guys 450 hrs in and just plat dude i have like less than 200 and im champ
ok buddy
i was kidding
what rank are you
at the end of last season, i was diamond 3 ( 2v2 ), i havent played since then
how many hours
i havent checked but i think its around 170...
jeez
nice
i am not so good at mechanics, i do have game sense but i need a good pc to practice
i had a ps4 at first, but now im in college, i use a laptop..
it works fine in the laptop, just sometimes performance drops hit hard
yeah i can understand that.
If you have the money i would recomend you also get a coach
how much would it cost
20 dollars for 1 hour is the one im buying
Send me a vid of u doing it, i can try and see where the issue is
18 dollars i mean
ye cya
I doesn't let me dm u
Send me a dm
Got u
hm you cant. I can confirm some games are uncarryable
adding 300 hrs to your count - most honest and legit tipp ever
even in 2s. I was on like a 70 streak one time and then my mate played against me. (was a road to gc thing)
i dunno cause I skipped last season so maybe gc1-2 rn. Peak 3
Damn
Hi any tips for plat 3 ?
hit the ball accurately and with force
That's hard
it is what it is
anyone willing to jump into vc and give me tips to improve my game?
hard stuck diamond btw lol
Cant vc but what do u struggle with?
Adapting, focus on yourself what u can do better in specific situations, play more 1s to improve individually, play less risky in the corners (jump 1 time and focus on landing rather then overcomitting)
could you watch one of my games?
Not at home atm
i struggle with mechs with i know i need to practice but i need to fix my game sense for 1s and 3s
Play 1 is a good way to get better
@silver canopy
Good morning my RL friends!
I’m here to offer you FREE COACHING from bronze all the way up to GC2 🕺
I’m also looking for people WILLING to coach. (please be rank c3 or above for this)
PLEASE DM ME, I DO NOT RESPOND IN CHAT BECAUSE I DONT CHECK ENOUGH
Hahahaha
Welcome to champ
@cyan sage you EU?
Play 1’s to warm up without caring about your rank. If you lose 10-0 don’t get annoyed. Save the replay and re watch it.
You learn soooo much from it.
I hate 3’s but I can help with 2’s
yes im eu
Any eu who can Show me how to flip reset?
Anyone got training packs or what i should work on in c1?
Is it possible to progress without learning mechanics? I'm low rank, D2 and I'm hard stuck I haven't learned any kind of mechanics or ways to play except for a bit of dribbling. Do I have to learn these things to advance to Champ+?
Is it possible to progress in the game without learning mechanics?
It is very possible to be gc without mechs I would practice perfect ground play with consistent power shots and consistent on placement and you should be able to climb all the way up
You can get gc with just dribbles and flicks
Just gotta be able to jump for saves but a lot of the game is due to positioning
And Roy are you going for it in 2s or 3s
Y'all flick? 🥹
90 would probably be next, anything else is just extra
Not a bad strat, breezis are a lot of timing and control of the ball.
Y'all aerial?🥹
Y'all air dribble? 🥹
Y'all touch the ball? 🥹
Y'all use boost?🥹
Im about to be diamond🥹
train your shooting
How
training packs
Which ones ?
Just hit ball facing net
Like if u can do decent front flips or just boost into it
Its harder than that
As long as u can defend enough i dont see why u cant be diamond
I mean i understand but i think i could do that even tho jt aint really fair
Well just stay simple
No unnecessary aerials
Dude there are def
This might be a bad mindset but just chase it to beat them to the ball
Im champ 2 if that somehow makes that bad tip better
(It shouldnt)
👍
Yeah i dont think itll go away
Last time i played solo q it was sad
Yo anyone need any help ranking up/coaching
Take your time, diamonds are supper aggro but they overcommit a lot
Tips for champ again lol (please)
Ask questions that isn't "champ tips"
You'll have better answer otherwise I'm just gonna copy paste
I want the copy paste lol
I mean otherwise is how do i improve (from c2)
I'm not gonna copy paste because I'm nice
But from c2, a lot of it has to do with overall consistency. That's what differs c3 from c2, yes c2s are good sometimes but they are bad more often than not, if you can play the same every single game, you'll eventually leave the rank. As for general improvement, you can use freeplay. That's just general advice
hello
Lol i keep shooting my shots so clsoe to the net but literally just bounces off and gives away a goal, how do i help on this
People seem to forget champ is inconsistent af and just go off on their teammates when they do bad
What's ur rank?
good question d2
yours?
The most basic step is being aware at how you’re approaching the ball to go for a shot
it depends on the angle, and where you are on the map right?
Where the ball is, where your car is, where in the goal you wanna place the shot
im also really bad at flicks
You don’t need anything special in terms of flicks, just a forward flick is good enough
Some diagonal flips too perhaps
ill focus on that
anyone help i am getting terrible even deranked out dia
im not going to go crazy and learnn heli resets because, thats useless basically
Focus on getting the setup for a flick first. Don’t just practice flicks by spawning the ball on your car
noted, lol thats how i used to do them
e
anyone help me i en getting worse and worse lost my dia rank after a year
As a diamond myslef, i would say, are you autopiloting?
no
i spended 15 mins timle in training now i cnat even hit a ball properly idk how
i am since s4 in dia but until now never deranked out
pls someon,e help
idk how
Sounds like bad habits to me, i might be able to give a hand
Well whats wrong ?
idk i was dia fior long time then i got bad run i stopped for 30 mins then i restarted in training for 15 mins and now i make the mistakes i would never doe i miss bals who i normally dont miss
For me sounds like you need a break, pushing on will only make you do more mistakes as you are losing your focus
Take 30mins have a shower come back to the game chill and quiet
but i had yesterday the same dfriom d2 to d1
Well the new season just started so most of the players are grinding rank to get their rank/rewards
still if you used to be d3 and cnat win in p 3
Im usually doing my placements 1 or 2 weeks after reset
when i do a speedflip on kickoff and my opponent doesn't i beat them to the ball but they still easily block the hit by just flipping and being in the way. does that mean my speedflip was off?
No it means they played counter
They just got a better 50
buts the opponents are not like un beatable i am just so terrible and tm too so
feels like ive nevver get dia ever again
Play it safe dont risk it as soon as you get advantage on the scoareboard go more defensive
but still i make mistakes my tm goes double on ball opponentys instachallenge. i miss the ball whole time
Take a break for like a week or more
when i did that last i got down fromd3 tod1
Dont ball chase
Doesn't matter, won't help you if you keep playing now
Sounds like you are over commiting.
As much as you push now you only develop more mistakes
i am the opposite of ballchasing
Try to get someone around your rank to play together, look for some chemistry between you and the other person on the field
i dont find sombody
just flip the other way for the 50
thats rlly helpful thx
@near jackal look in #looking-for-group , you'll find someone
this was not sarcastic, genuinly thx
Pls mate d2,1,3
Not really
Even me who's bad at kickoffs knows it's not luck
how do i get good at aerials/air rolling
practice, do workshop maps if you can, training packs if not/as well as. learn to do basic aerials before trying to add air roll in
cause pros suck at kickoffs too lol
for some reason kickoff goals still happen in rlcs
i think thats more random mistakes/strats then them just being bad lol. not gonna be perfect every time
its not random, its them not having a good read on what the opponent will do just like anything else in the game
not luck based
well yeah if one team plans to lose it soft and the other plans to win with a hard cheater, the team trying to win it have a decent chance of scoring. kinda hard to adapt a 3 man based kick off play in the space of 1 second, you just have to guess what the other team will do or play a safe kickoff and try cover all options. still comes down to the 2 going for kickoff to execute the teams strat well
You could say that there is some luck because of reaction time, latency, input lag, etc. But it isn't random
well its about as lucky as getting outplayed, getting dunked on, or not guessing where a shot is going
its just not reading your opponent right
any tips for getting better at air roll left
Is directional air roll better than joystick air roll
Personal preference but directional allows for greater movement with the drawback of being harder to learn
im sorry but can you please be a little more specific
practice doesnt really answer the question
and knowing how weird this game is i feel like theres more than practice to it
Sk a pro who uses joystick air roll is equal to a pro who doesn't use it
any tips for the start of the season? I was around top 100 yesterday playing with some pros and now i'm stuck 1450 with horrible mates
Basically
Alpha54 uses normal air roll and he is a world champion
Thank you
Ya not playing start of season
Your playing gc1s-SSLs at the moment
Can anyone help or give a few tips? I've been a diamond for over a year now and it always fluctuates so dia1-3 and I've slowly lost the motivation to continue playing the game
Take a break
Few weeks to reset from your what I'm assuming to be autopiloting
im gold 3 in 1s anyone wanna coach me to help get me to plat?
i dont gotta mc'
mic'
1s
im gold 2 any tips for gold ?
Pm me
I wouldnt say pass
not in gold
Golds arent used to being passed to
just rotate and get good boomers on net, and practice basic arials and hitting the ball off the wall
Gold 101
thanks
how do i fix screen tearing?
Can anyone help me to reach d2 im down to plat 3
Can someone help me to reach d2 again im down to plat 3
Keep things simple, dont go for mechs because you can and try to control the ball
Need some help. I'm a hard stuck low diamond and I just wanna know what I'm doing wrong
I’m a c2 in 2s if that’s what your looking for
I can teach you how I got out of low diamond. Dm me
He’s Xbox I think
Fair, lmao
What rank are you?
Crazy, I’m c2-3
Before reset
I should do well this ssn tho. Got any tips?
I worked on mechs too much at a lower rank
So I have the mechs of a c1 or something
But it’s my other shit that’s off
Gc1
Sorry
Lmao
I have that and more
I think shooting is my issue tho
I can place pretty well, but not from everywhere
I’m much better in the air so I’ve been trying to get better at smart ground plays
Sure
Yeah
I’ve been trying to chill on flashy shit
Cause I feel like I use it too much and it makes my game worse
is it right to put boost on r1 instead of circle and what do i use for airroll right then?
circle
circle
or ssquare
Ye
i have normal air roll and drift on l1 and boost on r1 and air roll left on square
normal airroll?
@bitter talon u cant type there
its a command
wdym?
How do me and my brother rotate in 2s?
btw im trying to get a replay review pls message me
So we can get pass plays and stuff like that
whats yourguys rank?
gc2
So if you wanna party up with me for a casual, and just tell me what I do wrong I can try and fix myself
Can't afford a coach so 🤷
I'm an Xbox user
Hey guys is there anyone that can help me improve on everything in the game?
Hey, i'm playing on console (PS4) so i can't get an replay review but does someone wanna play a match or some matches and help me improve on what's needed?
last season.
controller more like smelly and bad
because they smell
idek how to use a controller
anyone coaching
d2 in 2s but plat 1 in duels
im so bad at duels, plat 1 in 3s
rotations
and just game sense
just dont know how to approach that
just normal
im trying to learn how to speedflip and i can just not consistently
alright sounds good
ive been whiffing a lot missing the ball getting bad touches especially
i just use air roll left + jump
Can anyone tell me the how to use regular air roll? I’m D2 in 116hours of playing but only use left and right
US east
Same
I wish I could use custom training packs like the rings maps but I’m Xbox
im also on ps5 so ye same no training packs
I just drive and flip into it taking a 50😂 I win them most of the time still though
I can aeirel and hit the ball. Just haven’t messed with non directional
Yeah
Double jump but point car up
so yea is anyone coaching
How good are you? I can’t coach but we could go into a private lobby and learn
@dusty gyro
yep
O ok so same
rip what rank r u
I feel like I don’t have enough buttons on the controller😂 I play claw and don’t want to use a trigger for air roll
damn
You only really need one directional air roll when you are good with regular air roll right?
Ight so I’ll just keep left and learn before playing ranked again
O wait it’s easier than I thought
@dusty gyro said he did
I could also honestly😂
D2 in 2s/Plat 1 in 1s, US East, PS5
Playing like dogsh*t in this game tanks my mental health
ah why is that
imr
ah okay makes sense i understand
Hey guys, i'm playing on console (PS4) so i can't get an replay review but does someone wanna play a match or some matches and help me improve on what's needed?
:Diamond1: last season.
I think standard addiction logic applies, I have to play outstanding to feel decent but if I play trash even in casual feels real bad
i play so good in casual then comp im terrible
can someone tell me how i can improve in diamond though like anything positioning when to challenge etc
alright bet thank you
Haha yeah that was a decent message
I probably need more practice at awkward movement like quickly changing direction, awk recovery or those aerials that are a little too close laterally to you?
Really they aren't too close, but you have to go straight up fast and if I don't backflip (sadflip) I end up whiffing under them
Either of those outcomes feels pretty bad
How do you half flip
Im on pc and i have no cule what im doing wrong can anyone give me some tips? to i can get better im d1 dm me
kicked*,
@indigo quartz Backflip, analog stick up/press W to cancel the flip, air roll directional
at d1, you're probably doing pretty much everything wrong, just pick a place to start
work on shooting accuracy, shooting power, defense, rotations, etc, just choose anything
RL moment
Im on pc and i have no cule what im doing wrong can anyone give me some tips? to i can get better im d1 dm me
Flip reset
ballchase
you will get better just by playing if you are diamond, gain experience
yo anyone else not able to find a match?
ive been sitting here for 30 minutes now and not one match has been found
I finally just found one
any gcs or ssls want a project? dm
i am working on double resets but each time i go for the other reset i get thrown off the ball making it impossible to get the last touch, im just looking for a few pointers as ive been trying to do this for a while.
Do more attempts
im severely underranked like I cant do anything when the gameplay is so braindead and teammates are worthless can anyone help
change your mindset and wait 2 weeks
season just started. ranks are chaotic
anyone gc1 + able to help coach me? usually c2, placed d3
I cant be positive when im clearly the best in the match by far yet morons keep blaming me the instant i make a mistake. Like I couldve pointed out the million mistakes u made but I try to keep it positive. just doesnt work
like i said, season just started. ranks are unbalanced rn till everyone kinda evens out
plus if you are stressing, take a break
i know some matches are completely unwinnable don't get me wrong
what rank r u
can't win everything. but if you are in a loss streak or are stuck atm, take a break and find a way for yourself to better yourself
unranked (:
what abt usual rank
yuwhat ur peak
can anyone play some placements w me or smth so i can atleast get high enough to decently solo q
Bro I hate this random tms
no one ever responds to those
idk why they automated the tab ever since I can never find anyone
true, it is weird they decided to go that route
like who was asking for that bro
i think it's to lessen the spam
hi
you don't necesarilly need to queue with someone tho
especially if you are playing 2s. you can survive
3s i would understand more since you really can't control the game as much
gc2 looking for replay review
it would make life so much easier tho not needing to hard carry every game
Nah it was cause we started monitizing that shit
wym
could u help me? with maybe watching one of my games
People would offer “help”
oh true
im c2
that makes a lot more sense
people in here at your rank aren't going to be any better or worse than solo queue teammates or yourself
at least they can be in comms
yeah, i think that's the main advantage
but yeah that dude seems more like a reliant player than independant
thats why I need someone higher than me to q
not really a need. if you deserve a higher rank than you are currently, then you should be able to get there on your own
shouldn't rely on someone higher ranked to help you
its not relying its called getting griefed by someone far worse on your team makes the game unplayable
these are great tips
and it would simply make ranking up to where i really belong quicker. it isnt that i cant with enough games, its just hell
I need help signing into epic. Dm me if you can help
gc2- looking for help
ican help im ssl 3
well like i said originally. season just started. you wont be getting your last season rank for a bit. also you aren't getting griefed if the people are just simply not as good as you. unless they are purposely throwing or choosing to afk, it just is what it is. some games are unwinnable. just go next. there is never a "need" to have a higher ranked player help you
im not d3
i was just taught a bit from someone gc, its important to capitalize on the mistakes of the oponents rather then capitalize on the good stuff ur teamamte does
i need some tips on being on the attack idk why but recently been so trash at it any tips ?
havent done my ranked matches yet but last season around champ d3 to 4
?
i alr do that but ive been playing so slow and dont feel as confident in going for the attack anymore 😢
i dont do that
i alr do
not as bad as last season
@hasty nacelle whats ur rank ?
can u help me with attacking ?
i dont play much 1s last season only got to 2d and stopped playing it
but it gets so boring :c in 1s
ill try but idk if ill last long
🤯
i love pass and plays but sometimes u just cant trust ur tm8
pads>big boost
pads comes in clutch cuz they closer
:C
trust not worth the 30day ban
unless he silver
lucky i got the 1% chance of getting banned :c
hard drop
I knocked the game tying goal out of the opponents net I want to jump out a window
is it just me thats gets the most crazy ah trash team8 when in div 4
div 4 the hardest challenge
i dont i play better in div 4
:c
can u atleast give me an "ay" at the end of that
close enough
what if im gay
no
take ur anger out on the wall u only sometimes get a fractured knuckle
the bot got him another brother down :c
dms
skill issue
I just finished my ranking matches and I'm plat 1 in 3s I'm trash kill me
bro i was plat 2 in 1s and they put me plat 1
🤯
thats how season resets work
😱
Guys I suck, anyone down to coach me ingame?
Anyone want coaching from a gc2 player?
yo can someone help me w my mechanics
peaked at low gc3 at the end of last season, any tips to get to ssl?
I will queue up with anyone rn and coach if you @ me in the next 10 minutes cause I'm bored
@charred spindle
Wait what rank are you lmao
@charred spindle
im c2
I'm slow and you @d me so fast I forgot to put I'm like c1 atm. Mechanics though just depends what you're looking to do or improve on
yeah ngl i js wanna play quindickle on epic
What's your rank
bruh i @ed you first
@stone I’m silver 😅
I was tryna help a lower ranked player my bad 💀😭
im d2 check stats
im plat 3
😂😂😂
https://rocketleague.tracker.network/rocket-league/profile/epic/Tow-Mater.RL/overview this is my rl tracker, if you want to check my rank for coaching
little does he know I added him
damn, i got ego'd ig
He did @ first and it's my bad I forgot my stipulation lol
27 wins that's crazy
with drive forwards unbound
I did that, for fun, bc i got bored
reverse was bound, hence the name tow mater
oh ok
wanted to see if i could get c1 playing backwards
and I did, so now anyone who says tm8s hold them back below c1, is just wrong
if i can play backwards and still be c1, they have no excuse
logic: diamond tm8s are the best and champ tm8s suck
