[long rune]

Well in that case either way I benefit appreciate it

[lusty galleon]

👍 gl man

[cyan sage]

just low 50 if you have so little space

[grizzled field]

anyone abie to heip me (plat 1) i recently got out of plat to gold 3 div4 but i always lose those match because i feel like my tm8s cant defend and just whiff all the time this doesnt happen in plat but only in gold i got back in plat but what should i do to prevent this?

[gritty laurel]

is air roll left easier to use than air roll right? I've been using air roll right for years but I think I may be better off if I start using air roll left

[cyan sage]

when you're that bad at the game still, tm8s cant possibly be the issue, wouldnt take you long to get to a point where you can just 2v1 out of gold

[cyan sage]

air roll left spins faster

[lusty galleon]

bruh stop trolling so hard

[cyan sage]

nah thats real

[lusty galleon]

lmao no they are exactly the same
im air roll right
it does not matter

[cyan sage]

air roll left > right

(I use both)

[grizzled field]

i mean when i lose a 50/50 and they powershot it to the corner i cant get there fast enough znd some tm8s just dont hit the ball what should i do\

[gritty laurel]

maybe I just need to get used to it then 😭

[cyan sage]

exactly the same? one spins right, one spins left, wym the same tf

[lusty galleon]

yeah your teammates are terrible
so are your opponents
learn to shoot with power, high plat easy, maybe diamond

[cyan sage]

win the 50/50?

ever considered winning the 50, pretty smart choice

[lusty galleon]

opposite-identical

[cyan sage]

nice

[lusty galleon]

you need to stop 50ing weird
just single jump and cover the center of the ball, you should win all 50s this way in gold/plat

[cyan sage]

win the 50, powershot it into opponents net

[grizzled field]

thx

[lusty galleon]

dont even flip unless you have a good reason

[cyan sage]

Always flip into the ball

flip everywhere, so you can be horribly positioned

you'll get there faster tho

[solar beacon]

yo i hit d3 zealan

[lusty galleon]

👍

[gritty laurel]

I feel like if I use a different air roll my progress that I have currently will be reset

[lusty galleon]

ik ur joking but some plat gonna think this is true and gonna do it for all f o eternity

[gritty laurel]

since it's like relearning again from the beginning

[lusty galleon]

yeah dont do that
why would you do that

[cyan sage]

they'll still make it champ or low gc

[gritty laurel]

trying something new to see if it suits me

[cyan sage]

it wont

[lusty galleon]

its the exact same just opposite

[cyan sage]

you'll just start with a new one, thats like saying learning to dribble impacts your ability to aerial

[lusty galleon]

air roll right is not better or worse

[cyan sage]

air roll right spins slower

[lusty galleon]

bro

please stop talking im trying to help people

[cyan sage]

toxic

[gritty laurel]

so you're saying I shouldn't try to swap over

[cyan sage]

Not trolling for the one time, I say you should tbh

dont swap completely, just bind both

[gritty laurel]

I don't know what to bind it to that's why I only use one

[lusty galleon]

its not going to make you air roll any better, ill tell you that

[cyan sage]

I have air roll left on lb/l1, air roll right on rb/r1

if you're on pc, bind it to whatevers free tbh

i have scoreboard on the share button

[mystic tusk]

Not necessarily a game play top. I’m gc2 div 4 rn in hoops and can’t find games unless i wait. 30 minutes - is there any time that works better (NA)

[gritty laurel]

honestly I've been struggling with wall aerials and air dribbling for the longest so I'm trying new things to see if I could help myself out but I think I'm making my life harder 😭

[lusty galleon]

yea dont switch to air roll left, id highly advise against that

air dribbling is very hard, make sure you can control your car with air roll first, rings maps can help with that

[gritty laurel]

I play on Nintendo

[lusty galleon]

ah damn

that makes it even harder, tons of input delay

you can practice flying at different parts of the map

or honestly just dont use air roll if you're not consistent with it yet, just carry the ball normally right-side up

[cyan sage]

just always spin with air roll left

[gritty laurel]

I can't that's my problem

[cyan sage]

it makes you a better player to air roll left all the time

[gritty laurel]

I can't get my car nose underneath the ball

[lusty galleon]

yeah you need aerial car control to air dribble

its not easy and it takes many many many hours of practice

[cyan sage]

queue all regions

[lusty galleon]

hitting the bottom of the ball consistently with the nose of your car is very hard

but if you consistently practice it every day you will notice improvement

[gritty laurel]

I'm never gonna learn this at the rate I'm going this is so difficult for me

[lusty galleon]

its difficult for everyone

air play is extremely difficult and takes hundreds of hours of practice to do proficiently

if you want to rank up or improve faster you should work on shooting probably

[gritty laurel]

like power shots?

[lusty galleon]

yup

its up to you what you work on tho

some people are plat and want to grind flip resets cause they find it fun, its a video game after all

they'll still be plat tho

[gritty laurel]

yeah I need to learn power shots as well I have no clue what how to do that

but I'm trying to better my aerials first because I think that's what will help me more

[lusty galleon]

hit center of the ball and forward or forward-side flip

[lusty galleon]

aerials are very important to rank up in plat/dia/champ
air dribbling is not as important

[gritty laurel]

would you say the striker training would help? personally I don't think it helps because it times you

[cyan sage]

nah

[lusty galleon]

the default training packs are pretty mid

there are some really good ones with way more shots in community

but timing is a good thing, you want to shoot fast and get to the ball fast

[gritty laurel]

I guess so then mid or not practice is practice and it will help me in the long run

[mystic tusk]

@cyan sage i would if i was ethernet but i’m tryna push ssl man i can’t do that on 230 ping on wireless

[lusty galleon]

find good community training packs for shooting

i have some if you want them

[gritty laurel]

my wifi is out right now but could I have them for when it comes back on

[lusty galleon]

sure

[gritty laurel]

this is actually sad I can't even do the all star striker training 💀

I'm either missing the shot or missing the ball

[cyan sage]

skill issue

[mystic tusk]

@cyan sage send me ur rl tracker sadly

[cyan sage]

Rank diamond 2

[cedar nymph]

i want to hit flip resets, i know i dont need to focus on them and need better things to learn, but i want flip reset

rank: plat 3

[nocturne breach]

people tell you not to focus on them in plat, not because is not needed, but because you don't have enough car control to pull it off consistently

you can't just do resets without having a very good aerial control and maybe even some directional air roll

[lusty galleon]

i think people tell you this because its a waste of time

if you DO want to learn flip resets, learn air dribbling first
if you DO want to learn air dribbling, learn aerial car control

[nocturne breach]

yeah, you can't learn flip resets without learning first the things required to pull it off

but yh there are better ways to score than flip resets, these are just for fun

[lusty galleon]

flip resets are a fuckin awesome way to score but you have to be reaaaally good to pull it off

[open cargo]

yo! for a speedflip should you hold directional airroll or normal airroll?

[raven cloud]

That's weird. I don't think I have heavy car issues.

[cyan sage]

how the frick do I flick

I've no idea what I do wrong plj hjlp

[dreamy swallow]

just drible and frond flip or if breezy jump hold direc air rol until half the pres second directional airol and musty

[solid crane]

Depends on what type of speedflip you are doing.
If you play on a controller you can put your left stick in the upper left/right corner and do a diagonal flip cancel that way.
In this case you can use normal air roll or or air roll left/right.

If you press down air roll left/right and push your stick up (here you will do a diagonal flip) then obv you have to hold down whatever way you are flipping.

[grave blade]

Yo, I’m trying to coach people under d2 dm if interested

[open cargo]

oh okk I'm trying the first way but I'm having trouble to know when to hold down boost to hit the ball in the training pack

[solid crane]

You always hold boost. Before during and after the speedflip

[stiff bobcat]

can anyone coach me im bad at the game

[open cargo]

thanks!

[gusty geyser]

can someone coach me on flip reset? If u down dm me plss

[grave blade]

Yo, I’m trying to coach people under d2 dm if interested

[cyan sage]

Hi guys so I want to change my binds since I cannot air roll and fast aerial at the same time I need a good keybinds for controller dualshock4

[hushed storm]

Hello

[near jackal]

i an terrible still not improviçng

[solid crane]

That's okay man. Just keep your head!
You won't always see immediate improvment and it might take some time but if you are constantly open to criticism and you are always putting in the work you will get there!

[grave blade]

Yo, I’m trying to coach people under d2 dm if interested

[solid crane]

Hey I know this is kinda late but I can help you out if you want me to

[near jackal]

its for months

[solid crane]

That's unfortunate.
What do you do for training?

[near jackal]

ground shotshround dribble saves and areal shots

[solid crane]

For how long, 5/10/15 minutes?

[grave blade]

Yo, I’m trying to coach people under d2 dm if interested

[near jackal]

2h

[fallen quail]

does anyone wanna 1v1 so i can improve? im plat 1 so im looking for some1 above d1. just tell me what im doing wrong after the game

[solid crane]

At that point that is over training.
Try to keep your training brief. Don't just go into autopilot and do mechanic over and over again. Try to actually think about the mechanic and focus on it for 10/15 minutes and then move on to the next one you want to practice and do this with like 2-3 mechs and also make sure to warm up before it and get ready for ranked after.
So your routine shoulf look something like this
Warm up 5 minutes
Training mechanic A 15 minutes
Training mechanic B 15 minutes
Training mechanic C 15 minutes
Ballchasing, hitting the ball as hard as you can in freeplay (to get ready for the fast pace of comp) 5 minutes
That's 55 minutes right there and you can cut it down to 40 if you want to. Just make sure to focus on what you are doing and recognize your mistakes.

[keen pawn]

@pabllo716: and if i have l1/lb air roll left and powerslide rb/r1, so how do i do air roll shots?

[echo wyvern]

[cyan sage]

is it normal to be hardstuck for mulitple seasons

[nocturne breach]

if you are ssl yes

[cyan sage]

well im diamond

[nocturne breach]

then you are either not doing something to improve your gameplay, either is a mental thing and you panic a lot when you reach your peak

[cyan sage]

okay

how should i improve my gameplay to reach champ

[bold scaffold]

Is there any techniques that i should learn as a new player

[mortal quail]

Diamond: Stop tilt queueing, give your teammate space, get better at punishing your opponents. This can be done with good shooting and reads. Starting defending off backboard and get better at doing it. See the enemy up high, go backboard. Get better at basic aerials and wall touches as these can be vital. Get better at offense without sacrificing defense

[cyan sage]

okay thank you

do camera settings change much?

because most people say my cams are to close

[muted falcon]

how can i get out of diamond i 3/4 teammates are braindead

[vale harbor]

yeah they make a big difference, there arent 1 set of settings that are the best per say but there is a range which 90%+ of player (high rank players at least) will use. that range is as follows
FOV: 110 Distance: 260-290 Height: 90-110 Angle: -3 - -5. The rest is purely personal preference

[grave blade]

Yo, I’m trying to coach people under d2 dm if interested

[vale harbor]

stop blaming teammates for a start, its a terrible mentality if you want to truly improve. focus on improving your gameplay as theres nothing you can do about teammates. Generally in my experience diamonds should work on; fast aerials, wall clears/shots, shadow defence, powerslide cuts, (start learning simple air dribbles), Dont go for balls you're beat to, be prepared for teammates 50s to go bad, clear/take the ball into open space, take time when you have it (dont panic and make a bad touch)

[muted falcon]

thanks

[cyan sage]

Check dm

[nocturne breach]

blaming tms is the meta

[versed umbra]

Do we have coaches available here for replay analysis?

[wind sinew]

What rank

[versed umbra]

Currently high D2 in 3s

[wind sinew]

Sure I could help ya out

Finished S1 Gc & S14 GC

[versed umbra]

Are you a 3s main?

[wind sinew]

2s but 3s is easy

[celest nova]

can anybody give me tips on how to get out of diamond

ive been in it for ages

[versed umbra]

Same

[wind sinew]

Literally just play the ground game. Diamonds go for everything. Over commit and double commit everything

All u gotta do is let them make mistakes and take advantage of it

[versed umbra]

It's madness

[celest nova]

kk ty

[wind sinew]

Their ego is out of the roof

[vale harbor]

Generally in my experience diamonds should work on; fast aerials, wall clears/shots, shadow defence, powerslide cuts, (start learning simple air dribbles), Dont go for balls you're beat to, be prepared for teammates 50s to go bad, clear/take the ball into open space, take time when you have it (dont panic and make a bad touch)

[wind sinew]

Brother diamond ain’t that serious

[versed umbra]

It is now

[wind sinew]

Only tip u need is let them make their mistakes

It’s just diamond. They’re all idiots

[celest nova]

what car do u recommend i use cos usally use octane/fennec

[wind sinew]

Car is prefrence

Preference*

[celest nova]

i only use dominus during cm

[vale harbor]

this will make you rank up but will not make them improve as a player, if they just wait for mistakes, they'll hit high champ/gc and have loads to work on cus they cant do anything

[wind sinew]

That ain’t true

[versed umbra]

The last two 3s matches I played the other team had a player with GC title and they were all at least Champ in 2s.

[wind sinew]

I hit gc several times just playing passively. Lol

[celest nova]

ima play a ranked game and tell u how it went

[wind sinew]

Car mechanics comes w time

anyone can play passively

[vale harbor]

yeah because youve probs got decent basic mechs whereas a diamond doesnt, yes gamesnse and playing passive will make you rank up but it wont actually improve your gameplay

[celest nova]

/scored a goal in 17 sces

[wind sinew]

Just comes w time

[wind sinew]

W

[mortal quail]

You'll naturally improve as you face better players, in champ and higher

[celest nova]

tm8 just scored

[wind sinew]

When I first started rl, my buddy was high gc. Bro 1v1’d me till I could beat him

[celest nova]

/this a good game

[versed umbra]

The toughest matches are when an opponent just camps their side and gobbles up every ball sent down there. It's hard when the ball is continually being given away

[wind sinew]

Took nearly 3 months to consistently beat him

But that’s a great way to get better quick

Too many people quit the game early Bc they don’t know how to fly

[vale harbor]

or focus on the mechs side of it (which is significantly harder to learn as it requires muscle memory) and then learn gamesense after. Learning to out brain a diamond is completelly useless in champ, learning to out brain a champ is uselss in gc and so on

[wind sinew]

I had a coach give me a 10 hours a day free play training sheet that made me a god

[wind sinew]

Muscle memory comes w time.

[mortal quail]

10 hours a day is crazy

Can't even get 10 hrs a week

[celest nova]

another goal 2 mins in

[versed umbra]

I have 1600 hours and still haven't hit champ. I was literally 1 mmr from C1 3 seasons ago before they reset me to Plat 2 the beginning of last season

[wind sinew]

I had the time back then since I owned a professional rl team back in 2019-2020

[vale harbor]

exactly, it takes time so start learning the time consuming bit first, then work on gamesense

[mortal quail]

On paper it makes sense, in reality it's just not the case. Just because you work on mechanics doesn't mean you'll leave the rank or be a better overall player

[wind sinew]

Eh. Fundamental work is definitely good to train and have but u don’t need it

[vale harbor]

agreed which is why i aslo included gaemsense stuff to work on in my comment

[wind sinew]

But it’s all muscle memory. Playing ranked consistently will give u fast mechanics ad quick thinking over time but training alone will give u more towards free style mechs

[vale harbor]

im obviously not telling diamonds to learn to flip reset and air dribble but you need good basic car control eventually so start learning that first and focus more on that whilst in game learning the positinioning side of things

[celest nova]

nebz for now ill take senk advice as im d1

[wind sinew]

Diamond is just a shit rank

[celest nova]

learn mechs later

[wind sinew]

Everyone thinks they’re too good to be there and they wanna over commit everything

Just playing passively will get u outta diamond

[celest nova]

ill learn mechs at d3

[vale harbor]

fast aerials, wall clears/shots, shadow defence, powerslide cuts, (start learning simple air dribbles) <<<< these are the mechs im saying you should learn and practice, nothing crazy

[wind sinew]

I just came back after not touching the game for a year

Now I’m seeing plats actually touching the ball in the air??

And golds not complete shitters anymore

[celest nova]

i can alr fast ariel and decently clear and shadow defence

[wind sinew]

It’s like every rank went up one division

[celest nova]

btw i won 6-0

[mortal quail]

Nice

[celest nova]

cos 1 opponent afk

[wind sinew]

W

Lol

[vale harbor]

so from my comment earlier you probs do need to work on the gamesense side of it >>> Dont go for balls you're beat to, be prepared for teammates 50s to go bad, clear/take the ball into open space, take time when you have it (dont panic and make a bad touch)

[celest nova]

kk ty

[stone ocean]

Straight up carried a gold into plat yesterday in 2s. I'm a plat 1 in 1v1 he said he was gold in 1v1 and gold in 2v2 so I went ahead and partied with him. He wasn't a bad teammate tbh. I still play with him often but I got him to plat without losing a single match. 2v2 is way easier than solo tbh. Gold ranked seemed like they should be in silver☠️

We got 4th in plat 2v2 tournament as well so he wasn't too bad for a gold.

Sensitivity?

[mortal quail]

Less people play 1s, your probably facing diamond 2s in plat 1s

[vale harbor]

heavy car bug

[mortal quail]

"Bug"

[floral frost]

borderless

go fullscreen

[vale harbor]

its not haha, everyone gets it, just happens, i find the more i play and whewn i play consistently, i dont get it

[stone ocean]

RIP so your saying I'm a diamond 2

Feels like it sometimes but I doubt it. At best I'm prolly a plat 3-diamond 1. Playstyle wise

[floral frost]

gc1s in 2s are c1 in 1s

[mortal quail]

No, no where did I state that

2s isn't the same as 1s

[stone ocean]

When u said your prolly facing diamonds 2 in plat 1 lobbies

[mortal quail]

Yes, and you likely are

[wind sinew]

best tip for that- go into a custom match and set the game speed to slow and just spend a few min driving and flipping around.

[stone ocean]

Confusion

[wind sinew]

thats the best way to feel fast w ur car. its so satisfying

[mortal quail]

What's confusing, your facing diamonds in plat in the 1v1 gamemode

[wind sinew]

def should. that tip helped me get to high gc

[stone ocean]

So why did you say "when did I state that" lol

If u did state that

[mortal quail]

I never said you were a diamond player

I just said your facing diamonds

[vale harbor]

2v2 diamonds, are plat in 1s. so the plat 1 people in 1v1 you play, are probs diamond in 2s. that doesnt make you diamond in 2s tho cus maybe you suck at 2s idk

[stone ocean]

Bro u legit just said it again☠️ if I'm facing diamonds and winning I'm a diamond lol

[mortal quail]

Not in 2s your not

Since you said you were plat in 2s also

[stone ocean]

Oh no, I'm a plat in 2s just like 1s

[floral frost]

camberson is lost

[mortal quail]

Yes I know

[stone ocean]

Absolutely

[celest nova]

just lost

[wind sinew]

cant win em all

[celest nova]

ik

[floral frost]

im gc2 in 2s and c2 in 1s

[celest nova]

2-1 to them

[floral frost]

goes for almost every rank

[mortal quail]

I'm gc1 in 2s and d1 in 1s L

[celest nova]

went into ot

[wind sinew]

get that 1s up boi

[floral frost]

bruh

[wind sinew]

its a golden rule ur 1s is higher than ur 2s n 3s

esp in gc

[floral frost]

alr fella

[wind sinew]

i was top 100 last year in 1s on NA

shit was a struggle

[floral frost]

ok?

[mortal quail]

Below gc if your 1s is higher than 2s, you cant rotate

[celest nova]

ive been waitinf for ages for a game

[warped moat]

2s is so bad this season until like gc2

[mortal quail]

Its always been bad

Thats why I play 3s

[celest nova]

been waiting 7 mins for a match

[warped moat]

3s is worse

[warped moat]

c3 and gc1 is unplayable this season

1s is perfect

[worthy lava]

D3 c1

Is hell this season

Teammates have 0 mental capacity

Its not horrible in 3s atm for me
1s is bad

hi

hi me and my friend are bronze and were wondering if someone would be able to come and just help us learn the game

[tough owl]

You exist?(no offense)

[latent isle]

Best thing you can do it just play the game

[pearl lintel]

yes 😦

i was just wondering if someone would be able to come play with us

[cyan sage]

coach me

[tough owl]

Yea just play the game

[latent isle]

I’d help if I could but we can’t really play matches

[pearl lintel]

why not

[latent isle]

Well Im in champ and if we were to play matches it’s likely you wouldn’t even be able to hit the ball

[cyan sage]

uninstall, make a new account, play casual till you can hit the ball consistently, then play ranked, it's more worthwhile to make a new account than try to climb out of bronze because it's 99% smurfs, just do your best to place silver and up, fresh accs start in gold

[pearl lintel]

thats fine

[tough owl]

Do u want coaching?

[pearl lintel]

if possible

anything

[latent isle]

I had a gold friend play with me once, couldn’t touch the ball at all

[soft onyx]

I’m d1 peak d2 last season how can I get champ

Peak d2 in 1s and 2s

[pearl lintel]

can someone coach me and my friend wer bronze 3

[glacial rover]

He/ She was able to do air dribble so I teached Him/Her how to reset and He/Her did it

[lusty galleon]

was the air dribble like… good? staying under the ball?

[glacial rover]

Yea fr not bad for the first time

I was impress for reel

[glacial rover]

By the way do u know how to fast areal correctly?

[lusty galleon]

yes?

[glacial rover]

Can u give some advices?

[pale mountain]

me too?

[cyan sage]

always on

[lusty galleon]

you need to double jump properly, thats the most important

sit under your crossbar and see how high you can double jump
when done correctly, you should be able to get very close to hitting it without boost

you need to hold the first jump for 1/4th of a second and immediately double jump after

if you can do that consistently your fast aerial should already be pretty good

[glacial rover]

Perfect thx u

[lusty galleon]

obviously you want to lean back between first and second jump but dont push it too far and risk backflipping

its better to double jump, THEN tilt back if the timing is too difficult

[glacial rover]

Yea okok

[cyan sage]

??

[cyan sage]

Jump, lean back 10 degrees, jump + boost at the same time

should be able to tap the roof with ~41-45 boost, it's possible with 40 and macros, but just shoot for like 43 and you'll be good enough

[grim skiff]

Also hold the first jump

You will get more height

[cyan sage]

not entirely nessecary imo, it gives more height but the 2nd jump is the one that actually carries over the momentum

[grim skiff]

Yeah true, but if you perfect the timing your going to be quicker to the ball by holding it just enough time

[cyan sage]

I be holding the first jump to use the 2nd jump later 💀

[grim skiff]

What’s your rank?

[cyan sage]

unranked, dont play anymore

game bad, I just come here to laugh at @mortal quail

[lusty galleon]

they both carry over momentum

a bad first jump means you will just go lower

[cyan sage]

Eh, only matters if you want 2kmmr ig

[lusty galleon]

what

a better double jump means you get higher faster

you will beat people to the ball more

and you will overall be a better player

regardless of mmr

[cyan sage]

if you need one flat dominus worth of height to beat someone to the ball, personally I think you should've just been in a better position to begin with

[lusty galleon]

ok

[pearl lintel]

can someone coach me and my friend wer bronze 3****

i do

[lusty galleon]

nah bro

you have like 3 hours in rocket league, you gotta just play the game a bit

you need to learn multiple flip reset to get into gold

that should be ur first priority

[jade flame]

speaking of resets any trynna teach?

[lusty galleon]

how's your air dribbling

[jade flame]

decent

[cyan sage]

sure

[near grotto]

Anyone got any tips for champ1 or just things that helped them get to a higher rank

[lusty galleon]

you probably have mechanics, most d3/c1 need to work on:

• shooting
• being across from your teammate
• not giving away posession
• being patient (unless you play 3s)

also:

• committing to the opponents play as front man but not just diving and overcommiting when its on their half
• NOT committing to a play as back man, ever! (unless its right at your goal or its free)

[near grotto]

Oh okay thank you I'll try work on them

[lusty galleon]

gl 👍

[cyan sage]

idk about that last one tbh

[lusty galleon]

yeah to get to c1 you need to be able to psyco or you will stat in plat

[cyan sage]

last man back commits are really really situational

esp in 3s

[lusty galleon]

im assuming hes a 2s main, hardly anyone <gc mains 3s

[cyan sage]

yeah but even in 2s

i'd probably say if you're last man back and you're not gonna full commit, at least apply pressure or make it easier for yourself

like throw in a fake challenge to force the flick and then save it, that way they don't have full control of the ball

[lusty galleon]

by not commit i mean dont make them able to outplay, you definitely want to be near the play as close as you can safely
i also love spamming fake challenges as last man

[cyan sage]

i'd definitely specify that when talking to a diamond/low champ 😭

[lusty galleon]

true yea

[cyan sage]

"not committing" to them means sit back in ur net and wait for them to shoot

[lusty galleon]

it shouldnt lol

[cyan sage]

unfortunately it does😭

[lusty galleon]

commit = take a risk
pressure = be close

ik what u mean tho

way too many champs be like “ok my tm has ball now. i will go for back boost. wdym they pass????”

[cyan sage]

to be fair

passing is kinda

bad💀

[lusty galleon]

wtf

[cyan sage]

in champ

like

no one knows how to pass

let alone hit the ball

[lusty galleon]

idk ive seen some pretty impressive champ plays lately

[cyan sage]

season reset tbh

not real champs

[lusty galleon]

but yea most solo queue champ has no clue how to pass

[orchid tide]

you gotta wait till 1500 for that

[lusty galleon]

eh yea mostly

[cyan sage]

bold of you to assume 1500 players know how to either

try 1700💀😭

[lusty galleon]

high gc1 tends to start passing strong from my experience

[orchid tide]

nah 1500 you can get passes going

[cyan sage]

whether or not it's a good pass is up for debate

[orchid tide]

even current 1400 is somewhat okay most of the time

[cyan sage]

no

[lusty galleon]

like until 1500 i feel like people just pass mid and its very easy to defend

[cyan sage]

centring ≠ passing

#1 thing champs don't get

[lusty galleon]

yea ik thats what im saying

[cyan sage]

i'd rather have my teammate pass to me off of a clear

[orchid tide]

depends, sometimes you get a good m8 that can properly pass, sometimes your m8 doesn't know how to aerial

[lusty galleon]

people dont pass with power actually across the field until high gc1 ish from what ive seen

[cyan sage]

that's exactly why 1400 is shitter central

[lusty galleon]

i swear 70% of c2-c3 is like “open net. triple flip reset time. damn i missed”

[cyan sage]

people don't know how to like

hit the ball with power and accuracy combined

[orchid tide]

the amount of garbage m8s I get is astonishing

[cyan sage]

below like 1500

[lusty galleon]

solo queue is literally rocket league hardcore mode

[cyan sage]

like 1400s maybe, but it's so inconsistent i don't even consider it to be true

[orchid tide]

accuracy is optional even on slow balls fr

[cyan sage]

anything below like 1700 is just bad tbh

and even then

[orchid tide]

1500-1600 is getting alright

everything below is just not consistant in any way

[lusty galleon]

i think the general player is bad but ive found some really good people in like 1400 that clearly have great fundamentals

[cyan sage]

i think that's just because all of the like 1900+ players from last season are like 1600 rn ngl

[cyan sage]

yeah but those are the people that shouldn't even be in 1400

teammate diffed

[orchid tide]

I'm currently stuck c3 cause I cant get any good m8s. My 1s literally topped my 2s twice this season already

[lusty galleon]

season reset is so annoying

[orchid tide]

and I barely play 1s

[lusty galleon]

why does it reset so far

[lusty galleon]

1s is a fucking awesome mode for becoming really good at everything except team play

but its tilting af

[orchid tide]

1460 to 1260- I wanna slam my head into a wall fr

[cyan sage]

i know some 1900s that got put down to like 1450💀😭

[orchid tide]

one of my alts somehow gained mmr tho- dunno what happened there

[lusty galleon]

bro was bronze

[orchid tide]

it went from b3 to s2

all that progress to 0 mmr gone ;-;

[cyan sage]

i think it's cos it resets from 600 mmr baseline

cos that's your starting mmr

[orchid tide]

yeah same. 1840 down to 1440

[cyan sage]

you literally start off in gold 2

[orchid tide]

maybe, it didn't gain any mmr on other resets tho so 🤷‍♂️

resets be random

[static basin]

how to go in air

[orchid tide]

jump

[static basin]

o

thx

[twilit quarry]

In champ 1 and feel like i get held from possession the entire time

And im not dumb and just bang it away

[north panther]

im hardstuck plat 2 div 2 need help

[random pine]

im silver someone please help

[prisma flint]

lucky to be champ 1 i hit champ 3 div 2 last season and i cant get out of diamond 3 now

[cyan sage]

skill issue

[prisma flint]

ye

[cyan sage]

maybe try learning how to adapt and rotate around teammates

if you can hit the ball, thats all you really need to add

[prisma flint]

i know how to already im c3 level

[cyan sage]

Boom ball, and rotate, you're good to go

[prisma flint]

teamates are not good

[cyan sage]

c3 level, cant get out of d3, smth isnt adding up

[prisma flint]

dont know how to demo rotate pass shadow or anything

[cyan sage]

you know how to adapt, but tm8s arent good... smth still isnt adding up

[prisma flint]

i trust them too

[cyan sage]

you dont need to demo, rotate, pass, shadow, or anything aside from boom the ball on net up until gc

[prisma flint]

you cant play around somone who is just mechanically bad

[cyan sage]

it's nice to have yeah, but you dont need them

[prisma flint]

im used to almost gc so i demo

[cyan sage]

you dont need mechs tho, unless you consider touching the ball as a mechanic

[prisma flint]

up to gc

[cyan sage]

tbh you hardly even need to touch the ball for champ

up to gc2 tbh, if you can boom the ball on net, you're gc1

if you have basic rotations and can boom the ball on net, you're gc2

[prisma flint]

if you watched a few of my games you would see lmao

[cyan sage]

send a replay

[prisma flint]

how do i do that

[cyan sage]

💀

[prisma flint]

also i dont have any replays saved to far

send to what

[cyan sage]

yeah nvm

[prisma flint]

ur dms also its way to big of a file or something

i dont send replays to people lmao

normally i mean

[cyan sage]

"too big of a file"
the file: <2mb

[prisma flint]

dia is not fun

[cyan sage]

dia is very fun, it's literally just free wins over and over, and winning is fun

[prisma flint]

how am i supposed to know the size ive never sent anyone a replay

[cyan sage]

how did you know the file was too big

[prisma flint]

i win in dia just not enough to promote fast

[cyan sage]

thats called being diamond

[prisma flint]

i assumed it was too big its a 5 minute replay

[cyan sage]

gradual progression

you play more, you get slightly better

play hundereds of diamond 1 matches, you'll be diamond 2 if you're focusing on getting better, just how it works

[prisma flint]

when i play randomm que i lose when i play with someone i win most games

[cyan sage]

you need to learn to rotate

or just always party queue

[prisma flint]

you have to find a balance between rotating tho

[cyan sage]

no you dont?

if one player can rotate and adapt, the other can do whatever they want

[prisma flint]

cuz even if you rotate properly if a dude is coming to 1v1 you with ball he can fake and flick you if you are too far

and you cant just rush to challenge him if you are too far bc he can do anything with a big amount of space

[cyan sage]

fake challenge and save it when he flicks

play more 1s if you cant save a flick from a diamond

[prisma flint]

i save literally every 1v1 rotate im taking about my teamates

[cyan sage]

why is your tm8 in a 1v1

[prisma flint]

i rarely get scored on with a flick

[cyan sage]

where did you go

[prisma flint]

went back cuz he lost chall

[cyan sage]

so you're behind tm8, thats a 2v1

not a 1v1, so it doesnt matter if tm8 gets flicked, in fact it's good, bc now you have the ball

[prisma flint]

if i go up with teammate he either lets them hit it into our net or mess up

[cyan sage]

why are you up with tm8

[prisma flint]

im not

im mid

[cyan sage]

ok then no problem

[prisma flint]

so i can either rotate or go for a hit

[cyan sage]

ok so when it comes mid, take possession

all of these scenarios you just win

how are you losing 😭

[prisma flint]

all im saying is that if i had a teamate of a higher level i would reach c2 prob in a few days

[cyan sage]

a plat can be gc with an ssl tm8

it's called boosting

[prisma flint]

its tough to play with someone who doesnt know what they are doing

[cyan sage]

thats you too tho if you're losing?

[near grotto]

You and your teammate are the same rank for a reason, if your better you will make your team win games and if not then you deserve the rank your at

[prisma flint]

i dont have a teamate

random que

[cyan sage]

thats a tm8

[near grotto]

Yeah it applys there

[cyan sage]

your random queue is still your rank 😭

[prisma flint]

ok

he said it as if i had a dedicated que

[cyan sage]

just have to learn to rotate and adapt to soloq tm8s, and then you'll start to rankup

put me in a d3 lobby and if i lose im trolling, but if i actually play im just never losing 💀

[prisma flint]

everyone always says that "oh if you are better then your teamate you can carry and win" its not like that lmao

[cyan sage]

it is like that

[prisma flint]

no

[cyan sage]

thats what i do to get out of diamond

thats what i do to get out of champ too

[river crest]

it is like that

[prisma flint]

what is ur rank

[cyan sage]

unranked

[prisma flint]

lmao ur talking about d3 lobbies in gc

[near grotto]

You might be a rank higher but that's it

[prisma flint]

no shit you will beat them

[cyan sage]

and you're d3 lobbies as a "c3"

[river crest]

i used to be hard stuck d2 then all the sudden i can stay at diamond 3 or c1

[prisma flint]

i hit c3 less than a month ago

[cyan sage]

you're just d3 😭

c3 less than a month ago, and now in d3?

[prisma flint]

yes

[cyan sage]

did you duo queue to c3

[prisma flint]

yes

[cyan sage]

ah, you got boosted

[prisma flint]

most of the games at least

[cyan sage]

unlucky 💀

[prisma flint]

lmao boosted my teamate never hit gc💀

not once

[cyan sage]

you sure?

alts exist

[prisma flint]

he is my irl

lmao he would for sure lie for no reason

i checked his ranks too

[cyan sage]

well then your irl either 1. has the ability to adapt, or 2. you can adapt with comms only

without comms you cant rotate or adapt

a c3 should not be losing in d3 regardless

[prisma flint]

i do admit im not better than him but we are very close in skill level he says im better like all the time

[prisma flint]

yeah true

[cyan sage]

bro needs to stop inflating your ego if you're c3 losing in d3

you need to learn to adapt

[prisma flint]

i have no ego

its the truth

[cyan sage]

real. my fault

[prisma flint]

im not even being egotistical im playing with people below my rank how can i have an ego

makes no sense

[cyan sage]

why are you partied with people below your rank

[prisma flint]

im that rank now

[cyan sage]

maybe thats why you're losing

[prisma flint]

placements

[cyan sage]

so you're playing with people your rank?

how you lose all 10 placements

[prisma flint]

i won 3 💀

[cyan sage]

c3-> d3 thats 300 mmr, you lost every placement + 10 more

won 3? you lost 7 placements and 20 more

😭

[prisma flint]

well out of placements i lost games

was solo quing

[cyan sage]

learn to adapt

[prisma flint]

how

[cyan sage]

By solo queueing and realizing your mistakes

I can hit champ playing backwards, no way you're stuck in d3 after being c3 a month ago

[prisma flint]

so ur saying i shouldnt duo que>

[cyan sage]

no, duo queue is literally the best way to progress slowly

you dont need to learn 1/2 the gamesense with duo queue, bc your tm8 can comm positioning at all times, you dont need to just "know" where they are

[prisma flint]

i see

[lusty galleon]

fr

oh

nvm

[cyan sage]

?

[lusty galleon]

yea i 100% disagree, duo queue is the best way to both improve at the game and rank up

you need someone you can rely on

[cyan sage]

duo queue will make your rank go up, soloq will make you better

[river crest]

till u solo 1

q*

[cyan sage]

duo queue only, go into soloq, you'll end up like baba, c3 to d3

💀

[lusty galleon]

you can be the best positioned player on the field and your solo queue teammate can just double commit

[cyan sage]

how are you best positioned if you got double commited on

gotta learn how to rotate atp 💀

[lusty galleon]

you are making a play and your solo queue teammate challenges the ball

[cyan sage]

your play took too long

you didnt consider how close your teammate was, your teammates playstyle, your teammates rank

[lusty galleon]

lmao no

[cyan sage]

you only considered that you had the ball

[lusty galleon]

your teammate is just dumb

[cyan sage]

if im playing with a plat, im not slow dribbling the ball up field

tm8 is always dumb, just means you have to adapt

adapting makes tm8s dumb plays less dumb, and as you go up in rank, they have slightly more braincells

[lusty galleon]

yea you will lose more because of it, gives you less bandwidth to pay attention to your opponents

solo queue reinforces a lack of trust and teamwork because you never have a consistent environment im which to build those skills

[cyan sage]

I dont lack trust in my soloq tm8s, in fact, they're almost always insane, i think your luck with soloq is just bad or you cant adapt

also, just have more bandwith? grow the amount of info you can take in at once?

you're telling me you cant keep track of 3 players in 2s?

[lusty galleon]

i learned to adapt, i solo queued to almost gc3, but it sucked

game is much more enjoyable with a teammate

[cyan sage]

thats just the game sucking, not soloq

[cyan sage]

i duo queue and go down 500 mmr, i have fun yes, but i go down

[lusty galleon]

solo queue sucks bro ask literally anyone who has done lots of solo queue and duo queue

[cyan sage]

I do lots of soloq and hardly any duo queue

[lusty galleon]

then you suck at working with your teammate

[cyan sage]

when i do duo queue, i go down a ton and soloq back up

[lusty galleon]

or your teammate sucks at the game

[cyan sage]

yes, thats what makes it fun

[lusty galleon]

????

ok bro you do you

[cyan sage]

I steal tm8s boost, and then bump him across map

[pale mountain]

Can someone help me with speed flipping and half flipping

[cyan sage]

@cyan sage how does it feel to be as light as a feather in rocket league, is it possible to coach me this skill

[random pine]

can someone help me with everything im trash

[river crest]

any tips for scooping a ball on the wall going for a air dribble/reset/ceiling shot my ariel control is pretty good {actually good} i can hit mechanics if the setup is perfect {training pack} but everytime i set up the ball in free play it goes midcourt or backwards or its not a strong enough hit every time.

[lusty galleon]

well if you want to get better you gotta pick something to work on

[river crest]

there is a speed flip bakkes mod

[lusty galleon]

there is for the musty training pack

[river crest]

@pale mountain https://bakkesplugins.com/plugins/view/286

[lusty galleon]

you need to hit the ball with power off of the wall, slow down slightly, and jump

the ball should be already going to the net (after bouncing a few times) after you do your setup

[river crest]

i can get the power right 70% of the time but as soon as i turn up the corner to hit the ball i just completely hit the wrong part of the ball

[lusty galleon]

yea thats wall/car control issue

and you should be getting the right power like 95% of the time

a consistent setup is required for consistent air play

[river crest]

yeah thats my problem

[lusty galleon]

idc if you’re zen, a shitty setup is a shitty play

[river crest]

ive never wasted my time with my mechanics so ive never practiced wall scoops

[lusty galleon]

you need to be able to consistently control yourself on the wall and hit the ball far up enough

[lusty galleon]

can you shoot off of the wall? thats a very important mechanic

[river crest]

yeah

[lusty galleon]

like, actually?

[river crest]

i mean like flashy mechanics

[lusty galleon]

yea those are a waste of time for sure

people do them cause they are fun

ive met plats who can flip reset and ssls who cant

[river crest]

regular shooting like i can fly upside down and do a front flip and shoot it

although like shooting the ball when its on the wall at halfcourt shooting i can barely do

just kinda like airroll it into a dribble

[random pine]

how do i get power when i do the set up on a air dribble like my power on the carry part is trash

[river crest]

dont practice airdribble

[lusty galleon]

the setup power or carry

[random pine]

carry

[lusty galleon]

some people love air play and want to be good at it
its not gonna rank them up but i get it, its fun

[lusty galleon]

thats the hardest part, practice hitting the bottom of the ball

[random pine]

ok

[lusty galleon]

its very simple, very hard

[river crest]

/\

i have 18 days time played and i cant do it lol

im gonna do free play for like 2 hours and see how it goes just scooping

[tepid trail]

Good attitude. It may end up taking longer to get a fundamental understanding of how it works, so prepare for the long haul when it comes to air dribs

Id be lying if I said that air dribs don't help a ton though

[vocal linden]

anyone need some help / wanna hang out and talk?

[random pine]

does anyone know how to speed flip cause i want to learn how

[random pine]

can someone help me rank up to gold 3

or play anything im just bored

[verbal coral]

any1 trynna help me?

i just am tryng to get better in general dm me

[lusty galleon]

its a cancel of a diagonal-forward flip

which keeps the forward force but the cancel keeps your car's butt pointed backwards allowing you to boost through it

its the fastest way to speed up in the game

(apart from getting slammed by a teammate)

[stable sentinel]

how long does it take to rank into champ (based on your personal experience)

[sharp karma]

very col

[stable sentinel]

?

[sharp karma]

for me it took a while.

[stable sentinel]

like how long, if you know

[sharp karma]

idk

[mortal quail]

250-500 seems average

[storm isle]

anyone got any tips to hit the ball more often

i just go past it whenever i try to move a bit to get a better touch

[lusty galleon]

practice the kinds of ball hits you struggle with

[storm isle]

whenever i am at high speed

[lusty galleon]

if you grind only the stuff you need probably pretty quick
if you mess around and learn flip resets for 2k hours then infinitely long

[lusty galleon]

ok so go create those situations in freeplay

[storm isle]

hmm

thx for your tip

[storm isle]

can u tell me a thing?

can i rebind the "shoot ball" button in free play?

[lusty galleon]

you can rebind any button in the game

[storm isle]

its lb currently but my powerslide is also rb so i can't powerslide in training

what it's called in rebinding controls menu?

[lusty galleon]

go to controls

[storm isle]

i am in

but cant find the "shoot ball" or anything similar in rebinding keys menu

[lusty galleon]

what

[cyan sage]

coach me

[cyan sage]

~100 hours career stats, ~300 overall

[storm isle]

there is nothing assigned to lb in change/view keybinds except air roll and powerslide

how i change the "shoot ball" in training then?

[lusty galleon]

what is "shoot ball"

there is:

• take posession
• start dribble
• take pass
• launch ball
• defend shot

there is no shoot ball

[storm isle]

yeah defend shot i meant

sorry

[lusty galleon]

bind it to whatever you want

[storm isle]

there is no defend shot in view/change keybindings menu

ok got it i just gotta open setings during training

[lusty galleon]

they are your quick chat

[storm isle]

thanks for you time

i appreciate your help

[lusty galleon]

i think?

[storm isle]

no i found it i just had to open the rebinding settings when i am in training

[lusty galleon]

ah

[silver plank]

hi can anyone train me im gold 2 in 1v1

if you could train me dm me please

[vagrant raft]

Hi

[solid crane]

So just started right? Im assuming that you are gold, correct?

[vagrant raft]

Yes

But I do have a TW fennec

[solid crane]

Okay so what you can do at the beginning is

1. Get used to movement (how your car drives around, interacts with the wall and with the ball)
2. Learn how to hit the ball (hard) In gold if you can hit the ball on target it will most likely go in as defense isnt that developed yet
3. Watch some videos on basic rotation. Backpost rotation to be a little more specific.
4. (optional) If you feel good you can start learning some other basic mechanics like the dribble and flick.
   With all these you should be well on your way to platinum maybe even diamond

[vagrant raft]

Ive been plat, I can flick and hit ball hard etc but not air dribbles

[lusty galleon]

yes having tw fennec makes you rank up instantly

what

i dont get the second half of this sentence

are you in placements

[remote holly]

If you could flick good you wouldn’t be gold or plat

[nocturne breach]

you probably don't know what "hit the ball hard" means

[wintry imp]

Does anyone know how to get out of play I can kinda air dribble and have good defence that's rlly it

[hushed storm]

Hello

Any training packs for champ?

[cyan sage]

whats the best training map on console

[worthy lava]

For what

[thin verge]

Are zap dashes used besides after speed flips?

And do they work without any speed? I tried to just double jump from standing still and tried jumping as soon as the front wheels hit the ground but nothing happened

[keen pawn]

Who can help me

please

[cyan sage]

Does anyone know how to do that weird flip from ground the wall. Alot of pros do it

[sturdy wyvern]

does anyone know a custom code for air roll muscle memory or a video that would help or any tips? (i play kbm)

[worthy lava]

Kevpert has a video on it

[worthy lava]

Its hard to get the timing but it works

The higher u were off the ground the harder it is

[thin verge]

Ahh I see, thanks! So if I understand it correctly they are mainly used after speedflips and when recovering from midair?

[cyan sage]

fall to air dribble

[worthy lava]

Doesn't have to be speedflips

A normal flip will do

[thin verge]

Okay so basically front/speed flips and midair recoveries?

[grave blade]

I need hellp i’m looking to main rumble, but I don’t know how to play it. I need someone to help me

[wraith bobcat]

can someone help a plat 2 not be an awufull player?

[ancient marsh]

pretty sure it can be used whenever your car is placed for it but mainly used after a flip

[wraith bobcat]

read it again and come back to me

read it again

break it down rq

read 2 words procces it and 2 words

can someone help a player who is plat 2 at the moment be good

is what i typed

[mortal quail]

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

[verbal harbor]

what's the best way to make teammates adapt to me?

[mortal quail]

Being good, if your scoring and saving teammates will tend to let you go for it more often seeing as you can do things on the ball. However below champ don't bother, they usually aren't going to adapt to you

[verbal harbor]

well, i'm always the best on my team, sadly they just can't do simple stuff

[mortal quail]

You have to be the best on the field, not just your team. If your not, you have to play as a team. Being a good teammate is better than being a good player

[willow nexus]

can someone coach me im just starting to come back to league

[wraith bobcat]

ero2bosnia

coach me

[verbal harbor]

it's what i try to do, but when my teammates join the other team, really hard to win

[wraith bobcat]

ye fr

i try to help them, stay away from the play but they always ball chase

im ready for pases but they just bump me mid play

read it again

like we practiced earlier, read 2 words proccess it, read 2 words proccess it

i talked ab 2 diffrent senerios mr coach

i would rly like to take advise from people above gold 2 pls

i talked ab 2 diffrent senerios mr coach

[south dock]

Im trying to figure out what they said too tbh

[wraith bobcat]

????

im talking ab diff senerios

holy shit im talking ab when they pass im ready for it

[south dock]

But who is bumping? The opponents? Or your teammate who is ballchasing? That's what I'm confused about lol

[wraith bobcat]

my team is ball chasing

im gonna have a stroke

[south dock]

Same. The way you explain things is very difficult to understand

[wraith bobcat]

mr coach aka gamer

i never asked you a single question i would like for you to not answer

please

[south dock]

It's a public channel

[mortal quail]

Let them chase, don't position yourself for a pass as they will put you out of the play if they don't pass which is very likely. Play support, let them chase, and follow up when you need to

[south dock]

Where anyone can say anything

[wraith bobcat]

ok thank you

i said i would like to

mr coach

[south dock]

Wut rank is this bumping thing again?

Jeez

I'm over here dealing with elo hell. Teammates can't score open nets or hit around opponents

But this dude struggling with teammates chasing and bumping? I'll trade teammates

Literal elo hell rn

I have a better chance to get ssl rumble than to stay playing 2s

I legit might even tho I hate it

It's boring. Gotta play like a robot

[mortal quail]

Play 3s

[south dock]

Either play safe and boring

Or play fun while risking it all

Tbh i like 3s > 2s

[floral frost]

how about being good at the game

[mortal quail]

Queue 6mans

[south dock]

But sucks solo queuing 3s

[south dock]

You prob aren't any good yourself

[floral frost]

?

I mean being the best in the lobby. simply carry.

[south dock]

What? Do you think I don't try to?

Some matches are legit unwinnable

2s ranks are inflated rn

[floral frost]

if u were top 10 ssl would u lose gc1 3s lobbies

[south dock]

But I'm not top 10 ssl?

Bruh

[floral frost]

but ur finding comfort in saying some games are unwinnable

[south dock]

Finding comfort?

Aight, just gunna leave this. You've made no point here lol

[south dock]

Thanks for proving my point

[floral frost]

im tryna fix ur mentality but yea

ur legit lower rank than me

[south dock]

My peaks are higher than yours in literally every mode what

And you play hundreds of games. I barely play a hundred a season lol

[vernal reef]

I'm still having trouble with my air dribble

[south dock]

What are you struggling with exactly? The pop of wall/ground? Losing the ball? Not gaining height? Too much speed?

[vernal reef]

Losing the ball

Wall

And I can't match the soeed

[south dock]

Usually you lose ball if you pop the ball too far ahead of you of wall

[vernal reef]

And I don't get the feathering boost

[south dock]

You don't wanna be chasing after the ball, you wanna be maintaining a speed under the ball

[vernal reef]

Oh yeah

Go over the ball

[south dock]

Make sure you pop it kinda lightly towards the ceiling maybe rather than towards the net

[vernal reef]

So that's how I stay under the ball

[floral frost]

ehm bro uve got 9k games ive got 3k and im higher than u atm, skill issue?

[south dock]

Ye just aim to fly under the ball

[vernal reef]

Ok

Thanks

[south dock]

9k? I'm under 100 ranked games for the season and you doubled that in one mode alone. Prob even tripled

If you are talking total wins or something, realize I played back in 2015

[floral frost]

ur lost. games in total

[south dock]

Bruh

I don't breath this game like you do

[floral frost]

so?

[south dock]

You still peaked lower than all my peaks

And I play less each season

[floral frost]

but they were 5 years ago :)

[south dock]

Cas games exist you know?

[floral frost]

old merits dont matter

[vernal reef]

I'm trying to fly under the ball I just can't do it for me

[south dock]

If I play hundreds of games like you do without going outside, sure, I'll prob be well over what you are rn

[floral frost]

no need to be so salty abt it

[south dock]

Do you use air roll as you fly? Need good air control to air dribble

[vernal reef]

No

That's way to hard

I do no air roll while I fly

[south dock]

Seems you are the one who needs to defend the fact of having lower peaks in literally every mode

[south dock]

Gotta practice

[floral frost]

peaks. ur so stuck arent u

[south dock]

Haven't played enough, you give me a week of pure grind, I'll be out

[vernal reef]

I'm comfortable with air roll right how do I move left and right?

I know that holding left joy stick goes up

[south dock]

Remember, you've played hundreds. I barely have any games played for the season

[solid crane]

You just gotta figure that out with practice I would recommend that you watch grifflicious videos on air roll. They are pretty good and well written!

[vernal reef]

I'll try that!

[floral frost]

but we dont live in the past

[south dock]

If you hold air roll R, you will be constantly adjusting with left stick. Gotta get comfy being able to control without the ball before going for the ball btw

[south dock]

You fail to understand that what you do in hundreds of games I can achieve in a fraction of games

I legit just don't play enough

[floral frost]

ur all bark :L

[south dock]

Okayy buddy, whatever helps you cope with low peaks

[gloomy crest]

I can’t aerial or air roll and can barely hit my shots any tips?

[south dock]

Which air roll do you use?

[gloomy crest]

Default left bumper not sure what to use tho

[south dock]

Do you use default controls in general?

[gloomy crest]

Yes

[south dock]

Wut rank are you

And when did you start playing

[gloomy crest]

Gold

[gloomy crest]

2 years then I stopped for 3 years and now I’m getting back into

I’m trash tho :d

[south dock]

Do you have most your settings fixed to your comfort? Like cam settings/deadzones

[gloomy crest]

What’s that

[south dock]

Usually at gold it's a matter of getting used to the game

[gloomy crest]

I can penta flip reset consistently

[south dock]

Cam settings is how you see the game when playing. Deadzones is how your inputs (mainly on your joysticks) affect the game

[south dock]

Then just go pro at that point

[gloomy crest]

Jk

I can only basic air dribble

[south dock]

Wut

[gloomy crest]

Any camera recommendations

[south dock]

You can air dribble but can't aerial

[gloomy crest]

It’s confusing

[south dock]

Fov 110
Distance 270
Height 100
Angle -4
Stiffness 0.45-0.50

That's what i recommend people btw, i don't use those

You typically wanna stay within a range

Well with the settings i just gave you, one tick above/below each setting is safe to change

[woven gust]

i need help

[gloomy crest]

Ok

[torn raptor]

I'm bronze and need some help
