[sinful goblet]

[frail bramble]

i need a couch fr

[warped orchid]

dm mee for coaching im c2

[echo burrow]

I need a coach I been GC occasionally and got my season 9 red tag in 2’s but I’ve been hardstuck C3 since

Been playing for 3 1/2 years

[cyan sage]

dang

[echo burrow]

I have crazy clips and mechs but I don’t have teammates to play with, my friends abandoned the game once I got a lot better than them

[cyan sage]

I started playing a few years ago but i never got good I just started again

noice

[echo burrow]

So I have to solo queue, I’m not the type to blame teammates but they def hurt sometimes

[cyan sage]

im still a noob honestly

[echo burrow]

It’s all good

[cyan sage]

im unranked/:

[echo burrow]

Practice practice practice

[cyan sage]

I wanna get bronze

[echo burrow]

Don’t try and freestyle in freeplay 24/7

Just drive around as fast as you can and hit the ball

[cyan sage]

ok

[echo burrow]

Try not to reset the ball either in freeplay just full speed around the map

Work on aerial control

[cyan sage]

yea i always try to do things i cant lol

Im going to download some custom maps to practice arial control

aerial*

[echo burrow]

Speed jump rings 3

A classic for a reason

[cyan sage]

ok thx

[echo burrow]

Or pillars map that’s a goated one

[cyan sage]

Ok ill try them out

[rigid beacon]

how do i get good at rotation?

[chrome cedar]

watch ur mate see how he play then began slowly be near him

[livid drift]

looking for someone to help me heli reset i cant seem to get the timing if someone has a slowmo clip that would be awssome

[heavy perch]

how can i use #looking-for-group ?

[fallen panther]

type /

and fill in the options

[heavy perch]

okay thanks

[fallen panther]

np

[signal lintel]

none

yes

[woven shard]

hes not wrong tbh

before you ask im gc2 rn

im very confident all you need is power shots and basic ball control

ye but do you have good game sense

[signal lintel]

i hit gc with basically no mechs at all lol

[woven shard]

also are you consistent

i mean i aint gonna write an essay to explain it but not over commiting and making dumbass touches is part of it

[mortal quail]

i should make a copy paste for that question

[woven shard]

fr

[mortal quail]

but in simple terms, its your overally knowledge of the game and how its played
Stuff like awareness, decsion making, and general ball touches

[woven shard]

thats a good description

[stark atlas]

as a plat what mechs should ik?

[woven shard]

i mean its not gonna be easy

[umbral crag]

no

[signal lintel]

think ahead of the next ball touch and everything will start making sense

[woven shard]

theres levels to it

[mortal quail]

def not

good way to have better gamesense is to limit yourself how you play, or play 1s

[umbral crag]

don't even have to limit yourself

[mortal quail]

since you know they are gonna insta challenge, play around that

[umbral crag]

just actively think when playing and replay review/think about what went wrong when you get scored on

[mortal quail]

thats gamesense

[woven shard]

ye

[signal lintel]

not every situation has a good solution but you can still do your best based on what you expect to happen

[umbral crag]

then play off their mistakes and bait out their chals or get earlier touches around them to have them overcommit

sounds like a lot of copium

[signal lintel]

everyone is good and bad in different ways. just gotta try to adapt

[woven shard]

i mean that happens at every rank

maybe not ssl idk havent got there yet

[signal lintel]

does sound like a good idea

[umbral crag]

1s rank =/= 2s/3s

they are different modes

[woven shard]

true

[eager wing]

because mostly 2s diamonds and champs reside in plat 1s, it also requires diff skillset, so its gonna be all kinds of ppl there

[umbral crag]

there are gc1-2s in c1-c3 1s and they are just as bad at 1s as the champ 1s mains

[woven shard]

also shadow defense barley does anything in 1s if your only doing that on defence

[woven shard]

ye

in 1s i peaked c3

[mortal quail]

if you default shadow without knowing if you should, your getting scored on

[woven shard]

im c1 rn

[signal lintel]

because almost everyone is lower rank in 1s. most people struggle with 1s in general

[mortal quail]

dont default shadow

my advice, just insta challenge everything in 1s, youll prob lose but its a good way to get better

[woven shard]

pre jump

[mortal quail]

thats fine

[umbral crag]

you can also fake and hide behind the ball

[woven shard]

well youre prob jumping too early then

[signal lintel]

either prejump early or turn away, it is honestly that simple but not easy

[woven shard]

ye

[umbral crag]

by faking and turn in line with the ball and their car lol

[eager wing]

'smurfs arent common'

me playing against a S11 bronze tourney winner doing air dribbles and speedflips in plat 3:

[mortal quail]

just do one flip and boost rest of the way

[umbral crag]

they aren't fr. i don't see them

[harsh abyss]

best way to get unwashed?

[mortal quail]

simple kickoffs work wonders

[harsh abyss]

college made me washeddddd

[mortal quail]

im still figuring that out but 1s or freeplay

[umbral crag]

just start playing again. don't care too much about your rank. it will go back to where it should be after playing consistently again

[signal lintel]

1s, or freeplay if you are just flipping bad

[harsh abyss]

region? rank?

[eager wing]

"if you dont see smurfs, you are the smurf"

[harsh abyss]

I can't play consistently anymore :c. College man but game is still fun, I hit a clip every now and then

[umbral crag]

there just aren't as many smurfs in gc+ because if they are a smurf they gotta be like gc3-ssl lol

[harsh abyss]

I pass

[signal lintel]

yeah i mean smurfs can go anywhere below their actual rank, so you naturally see less at higher ranks

but there is a lot of smurfing out there

[harsh abyss]

thats the answer to the smurf problem. Rank up enough so you dont run into them anymore

[signal lintel]

ya just get good

[woven shard]

i mean you prob just remember smurfs more bc they stand out and your not gonna be playing them 50% of your games

[harsh abyss]

fr, I had to beat a lot of smurfs when I was diamond. It's easier when you have mechs

[signal lintel]

eu ping brings me unhappiness

[harsh abyss]

for reals

plus it'd be unfair to 1v1 a diamond

make a priv match

[signal lintel]

i played eu 2s earlier today and kept getting bad connection

[harsh abyss]

make it more unique bruh

theres a million servers like that

[signal lintel]

i forgor 💀

i spec

priv match above

i always win

[faint sail]

If anyone wants help critiquing your in game decisions or improving your mechanics (Freestyling mechanics or Competitive mechanics) anywhere from air dribbling to quad flip resets in a PM, DM me NAE.

[white lava]

can someone train me becasue im ok at the agme i just want to get better and be able to do mustys and other cool tricks?

*game

[dusk patio]

I’m plat 1 how I get beter

[sweet apex]

1. Don't ball chase, see what your teammate does beforehand then react
2. Don't always go for an air dribble or flip reset, go simple (I still struggle myself)
3. Allow your teammates to do what they want, stay defensive and push up when neccessary (search up that on yt or sum)
4. Go the opposite way of where you rotated from, it will give you time to get boost, go backpost, not hit ur tm8, etc.

[worthy axle]

i really like/agree with everything this reply said for ppl around plat rank (especially rotate back post guys) u can save shots from all angle this way (unless they absolutely slot the shot, then good shot) but rotating back post can literally help u rank up alone if u stay disciplined and are actually consciously using ur brain unlike these ranked apes who havent evolved to using their brains yet

[sweet apex]

Im only d2 aswell lmao thats why I said search some stuff up and I also struggle with these tips

I can tell people to do them but I can't implement them myself

js be better than ur opponent, outsmart, let them make mistakes

[dusk patio]

Thxxxxxx

[dusk patio]

I let my opponets go up bc they always pass I just take their pass or wait for them to whiff then take open

They both leave their side

Opponents

So if they whiff i get free net

[sturdy leaf]

Dam just coming back to the comments seeing people earlier saying not to watch Spookluke guy, went to my watch history and 2 out of the 3 videos I watched were from Spookluke haha

[cyan sage]

[tawny citrus]

[rocky hollow]

im a peak d3 and abt to derank to p3. help (also mods im not looking for LFG im looking for advice....)

[mellow kettle]

Lf for coach plat 2 but solid skill

Peak d1 as well

[raven cloud]

People in his own discord server say not to watch him.

[sturdy leaf]

That's pretty sad

[raven cloud]

Yeah, it is what it is.

[signal lintel]

lol

[opaque flicker]

I was c2 1229 a week ago, started to grind and do training packs (mainly goalie) im around 1550 now any tips to get gc2?

[reef juniper]

i need help what goel exp is this

can someone help me

i can send it in dms

[vernal rune]

Anyone wanna run a game with me and help me/ tell me what I'm doing wrong to not rank up?

[leaden ore]

sure what rank are you\

[vernal rune]

I had to make a new account, but I was plat 2 or 3.

Im doing placements atm though, try a get them out the way.

[royal oxide]

How do I hit areals I can't hit none I'm kinda new but I can't hit for shi

[honest blaze]

Can someone teach me how to hit a flip reset ?

[royal oxide]

Gold 3

[leaden ore]

if your not c3 you need to focus on other things

[kindred trail]

What’s your rank?:)

[kindred trail]

What do you guys think.. isn’t the better question what the peak rank was?

[honest blaze]

I’m plat 2 to D1 I usally are in one of those ranks

I have a question tho

[leaden ore]

think about this. how often in game do you set yourself up for even a basic vanilla airial

[kindred trail]

He is right tho… you can learn it… but and this is a big but….. it would be a waste to learn it now to use it in COMP

[honest blaze]

Who ever said I wanted to use this for comp for all u know I might wanna be a free styler and just tryna learn a simple flip reset ever think of that ??

[kindred trail]

With respect. Cuz you sound like you know:) I think he means the reset in general. The setup on the wall is another thing:P

[leaden ore]

then go to youtube

[honest blaze]

1 on 1 helps to learn faster

[kindred trail]

I’ll help ya out as much I can bro:)

[honest blaze]

Thx

[leaden ore]

think whatever you want i mean the guys on youtube are gc+ so what do they know

[kindred trail]

They know how to do it. But it’s static… he won’t get feedback:)

[honest blaze]

What do they know ur rank is ur rank some people are game sense some free style and some even u can’t juge people off their rank some don’t play ranked as much some just wanna hit cool shots u see

[swift goblet]

peak ig

[kindred trail]

I get ya bro!

[crystal cliff]

just dont watch spookluke

[honest blaze]

Take me as example I’m a plat free style I learned air dribbles at silver and celling shots at gold

[leaden ore]

they are instructional videos designed to help you get the optimal reset. you can get resets but so many things can be wrong with it. the recoil, where you land, can you even use your second flip

[kindred trail]

Wrong. They are videos designed to get views:)

[leaden ore]

tthey taught me how to flip reset

[crystal cliff]

the only good youtuber to watch is literally squishy

flip resets are basic its not hard to teach that

[leaden ore]

squishy doesnt even really do mech vidsds

[kindred trail]

What works for 1 won’t mean it works for the other:P

[crystal cliff]

mechs are useless you either have them or you dont

[honest blaze]

Yeah u might mess up but u learn from those and keep trying and like I said a 1 on 1 helps more they can atctivilly see what ur doing and tell u how to approve on it a yt vide is ONLY what they say no tips or in real time help

[kindred trail]

Sent you a dm

[leaden ore]

doest mean it wont though either he just doesn't want to try

[crystal cliff]

youtube mech vids are useless

[leaden ore]

learning through others mistakes is faster than learning through your own

[kindred trail]

Thank you

It’s great to get the general idea you know

[crystal cliff]

i never ever watched youtube tutorials or anything and hit gc in 700 hours

you dont need it

[kindred trail]

Bruh….

[leaden ore]

sure

[kindred trail]

Nice!

[crystal cliff]

just play the game

[leaden ore]

gc when in original s1?

[crystal cliff]

what

[swift goblet]

na man dont say this. youre one of billion players. gcs averagely has 1500+ hours and tutorials are very helpful

[crystal cliff]

they arent the only good ones are people like squsihy that explain the game not people like spookluke that dont say anything and scam kids

[swift goblet]

i mean i was gc and i checked some ytb vids and i peaked to gc2 almost lol. try to tell me theyre not useful man

[leaden ore]

if i was a gc from 2018 is ab as good as a c1 now

[kindred trail]

It’s still “what you do” with that information

[crystal cliff]

more like d2

[leaden ore]

exacttly

[crystal cliff]

literally spook lukes tips to flip reset are "get a flip reset"

[leaden ore]

this seasons champs will be next seasons diamonds if they dont keep up with the meta

[crystal cliff]

shows how bad those vids are

[swift goblet]

ure trippin bro . i improved alot from his vids

[crystal cliff]

thats not how that works

[crystal cliff]

im js gonna ignore u said that bs

[leaden ore]

actuaaaly even though i dislike spookluke his flip reset video is one of the best ways to approach them and get a usefull reset from it

[swift goblet]

idc if u doesnt trust me but when i started doing what he said in vid i started being way more faster

[crystal cliff]

yeah u kids are waffling bro

[leaden ore]

your not even a gc

[crystal cliff]

im literally 1500 rn

and i dont even play

[leaden ore]

so you probably bought an acc for the title

[swift goblet]

bro WHOS KID u got literally TOP 0.6 IN THE NICKNAME XD bruh .. big flex right? who u flexing at bro noone cares dude

[crystal cliff]

?????

[swift goblet]

i was 1% top and do i have it in nick?

[crystal cliff]

keep coping holy xd

💀

sorry i offended the worst youtubers fanbase

brazy

[leaden ore]

700 hr gc ac def sounds like an ssl made gc acc

[crystal cliff]

ur the one that said hes good

[crystal cliff]

ego boost ngl

[solar beacon]

can anyone coach me?

[leaden ore]

idc for spookluke aafter he started to promote his boot camp shit at over $1000 per seat but he's still gc3

[swift goblet]

ye men i dont care bout his businesses im just saying some of his vids are useful for sure

[crystal cliff]

hes not gc3

[swift goblet]

also his explaining is very clean and stuff

[leaden ore]

his new series the educational smurf is actually making me respect him abit more

[crystal cliff]

check #gameplay-highlights

hes literally getting payed to smurf and ur defending him

[swift goblet]

still you can be boosted. just sayin

[crystal cliff]

scroll up to my clips then

[swift goblet]

i wont, send them

[crystal cliff]

lmao i solo queue

[leaden ore]

you cant get boosted to like gc2+

[crystal cliff]

keep coping

[leaden ore]

he smurfs in skrims

with people from that bootcamp

[swift goblet]

i mean if u really made gc in 700 hours then claps. but im still laughing about your ego when you have 0.6 top in nickname man xD

[crystal cliff]

go check gameplay highlights

i have it there cause i coach and ppl can know my rank without asking

[swift goblet]

coach me then ma boy

[leaden ore]

buying an ac and calling yourself a coach but saying yt cant teach you anything

[crystal cliff]

i didnt buy a acc...

[leaden ore]

i bet you just learned every mech from scratch in 700 hrs to gc

[crystal cliff]

i did 💀

[leaden ore]

get real liar

[solar beacon]

yo bro can u coach me?

[crystal cliff]

...

[leaden ore]

your just a fake

[crystal cliff]

i literally just sent a clip

[leaden ore]

can i watch the

[swift goblet]

im old gc i can see if ure real or no

[crystal cliff]

im lvl 1750 in game

[swift goblet]

that doesnt matter

[leaden ore]

who cares ab level

[crystal cliff]

maybe like 1200 hours and ive been gc since S7

[swift goblet]

@crystal cliff

[crystal cliff]

i started in S3

[leaden ore]

the fact you even say that means you sound un seasoned

[crystal cliff]

i sent a clip

[leaden ore]

who cares ab "your clip"

[crystal cliff]

ur js mad bruh

[leaden ore]

1v1 him or dont

[crystal cliff]

unless ur oce im not doing a 1v1

[leaden ore]

we're just exposing you

[south dock]

🍿 👀

[leaden ore]

proly

[swift goblet]

*2.5x

[crystal cliff]

im so confused

ur both mad bc im a new player thats triple ur skill

wild to me

[leaden ore]

he's here giving bad advice trying to fool people into paying him to coach at plat level

[crystal cliff]

i coach for free...

[leaden ore]

you wont even play him in a match to prove your skills

[swift goblet]

ure literally the same skill as i am why would i be mad. wake up kid fr xd im old gc and i would beat u everytime in 1s trust me bro. i can defeat gc2s+ in 1s and i can totally snipe u aswell

[crystal cliff]

lol thats funny

ur just funny

[swift goblet]

or maybe im just good

[crystal cliff]

if ur the same rank as me u have the same chance of winning as i do

that fair game

[leaden ore]

real recognizes real and your not recognized vlenks

[crystal cliff]

but the other guy saying im boosted is weird

[swift goblet]

i said that bad. we are the same rank. but i got way more hours and im pretty sure that i could beat u

[crystal cliff]

not how that works

[swift goblet]

cuz im playing daily many and many 1s. i would like to see you against me dog

[crystal cliff]

we are the same rank then we are the same skill

if you were better you would be higher

[leaden ore]

then play

[swift goblet]

NO THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS XDD BRUH.. I KNOW SO MANY PLAYERS AND THEYRE LIKE gc1 and they should be gc3 + but theyre just having like idk, unlucky?

[leaden ore]

your skill level will be obvious if its 5/6 vs 11/1

[crystal cliff]

i 20 hours in the last 2 week and im 1500

i dont play all day

[crystal cliff]

unlucky is the biggest cope

[leaden ore]

then o 3/5

[south dock]

and this is why gc1 is the worst rank

[swift goblet]

im just saying that u said nonsense. rank doesnt very matter. u can be gc but u can be boosted aswell and play like c1

[crystal cliff]

im not 1v1ing u cause ur having a sook

[solar beacon]

can anybody coach me?

[leaden ore]

no its because your a fake

[south dock]

bunch of ego

[crystal cliff]

u needa control ur emotions and understand people can be the same rank or better w less hours

im not even cocky bro

i play the game for fun

[swift goblet]

and delete that 0.6% top . or imma add it aswell XD but i dont wanna be cringe yk

[crystal cliff]

i wouldnt have a ego and coach people for free

[leaden ore]

ok

[crystal cliff]

what rank are you?

[solar beacon]

d3 div 4

[leaden ore]

bees dont take advice this poser

[swift goblet]

@leaden ore check dms

[crystal cliff]

[leaden ore]

[solar beacon]

[crystal cliff]

[swift goblet]

im old gc and im gonna say the same thing, find someone whos legit @solar beacon

[crystal cliff]

old gcs in a nutshell

[swift goblet]

imagine bro

[crystal cliff]

ur mad bc i have less hours lil bro

[swift goblet]

say it bro, give me a reason why wont u accept my invitation to 1s

[crystal cliff]

im not scared of someone that hasnt hit gc sincve 2018

[swift goblet]

im season 10 gc

few seasons ago, unlucky lil bro i didnt forgot how to play the game dw

[crystal cliff]

ok?

ive got 7 gc tags in a row

[leaden ore]

show em

[crystal cliff]

u hitting it once in 4 years is diff

[leaden ore]

i bet they're red tags lol

[swift goblet]

unlucky man

[south dock]

this convo should lowkey be killed

[swift goblet]

:?DDDDDDDDDD

[south dock]

you guys are just going in an endless back and forth

you lucky the mods aren't strict rn

[solar beacon]

so u cant coach?

[proper raft]

Having trouble with air dribbles and keeping close to the ball

Free coach appreciate d

[crystal cliff]

#gameplay-highlights

[south dock]

prob popping the ball too far or using too much boost

[leaden ore]

i dont really disagree but the premise started on this guy suggested all yt vids wont teach you anything and this is a gameplay tips channel so its counter productive to help people get better, granted so is this but...

[crystal cliff]

ur so mad xd

[proper raft]

I make sure to wait for ball to go up and then hit it and I don't know when to jump off

[south dock]

if that's how he learned, it is what it is. everyone learns differently

[south dock]

dm me a clip of your attempt, i could prob correct you a bit

[leaden ore]

I'm convinced he's just a liar

[proper raft]

Or just hop in training with is easier for me than oppening up OBS and transfering it to discord somehow

[south dock]

if that's what you believe then so be it, no need to push on him. i mean the fact that he feels the need to state his "%" should show he prob doesn't get there often

[leaden ore]

i would bet he bought someones old gc acc

[south dock]

are you on pc?

[swift goblet]

i dont care what he did, hes gonna proof himself when hes gonna jump in 1s against me

[proper raft]

Yeah

[crystal cliff]

ik its self explanatory but try go for soft touches when its popped up

[proper raft]

I can't do that if I'm not with the ball when first jumping off the wall

[crystal cliff]

do you have a clip as a example

[proper raft]

No

[crystal cliff]

and you can get a soft touch still just hit it with the front wheels

[south dock]

legit you guys having that convo back and forth needing to prove to each other you are this and that is just solid evidence at why gc1 is legit the worst rank i have ever seen and ever had to deal with

[crystal cliff]

or stop boostin g just before u hit the ball'

[crystal cliff]

it was literally just him calling me fake bc i have less hours

[south dock]

just give him your tracker and call it a day

[proper raft]

I'll try it boss thanks

[south dock]

i could easily say i hit gc in like 300 hours? but does that count if it's like OG S3? hours mean nothing. it's what you do with those hours that matter

[crystal cliff]

try to catch the ball like you would irl, kinda try to stop in in the air and then control it

[proper raft]

Bro what

[crystal cliff]

i started S3 and hit gc S7

[proper raft]

Bros talking about real life now

[crystal cliff]

idk a better way to explain without showing u

[proper raft]

Alright

[crystal cliff]

u js wanna try stop the ball mid air

[proper raft]

I might just watch a guide then

[crystal cliff]

squishy does it in his vids

[proper raft]

What was that song like balls in yo jaws

[crystal cliff]

if u watch a couple u will see it

[proper raft]

Alright

[umbral crag]

[crystal cliff]

L advice

[cyan sage]

at the very least

[crystal cliff]

[cyan sage]

yes

you just cant shoot, unlucky

All i do is ballchase and boom the ball, and i peaked higher than .6%

[crystal cliff]

insane

[mortal quail]

Average gc2 conversation

[cyan sage]

except he's prob gc2 in 2s

[cyan sage]

average c2 input

[mortal quail]

Isn't that still top .6%

[cyan sage]

yeah, i said i ballchase and boom higher than top .6%

[cyan sage]

i think .6 is gc1 in 2s actually 💀

[mortal quail]

Its 0.9%

Its 0.6% in 3s tho

[cyan sage]

bro forgot gc isnt one mmr big

[crystal cliff]

gc2 is 0.7

ik what rank it is i was asking ur rank

[cyan sage]

its 1s

💀

[umbral crag]

gc2 in 2s was .2%

[cyan sage]

maybe bro doesnt know what top .6 is

[crystal cliff]

no its not

0.2% is like gc3 div 3

[warm breach]

10.00>>sens🫶🏼🫶🏼

[finite torrent]

looking for tips peak 1530 stuck in c1 now

[warm breach]

Try staying back the things I would practice being in champ would be 1•hesitation 2•shot consistently 3• recovery •4 game sens all these thing go into consideration your not in gold anymore ppl are trying to reach the top of the top so unless you practice nothing will happen

[modest temple]

how do you rotate?

[umbral crag]

it is check the psyonix rank distribution posts lol

[crystal cliff]

those arent acc

[umbral crag]

they are from psyonix

[candid mortar]

how do I get better (I recently made it to diamond)

[sharp karma]

play with me 😉

To all the switch players if you turn off automatic software updates will you be able to play the game without downloading the update

This is for not removing trading somehow

[sterile smelt]

What’s the reset where you flip forward and do a 360 called

[left sonnet]

Can someone explain to me what that twist flip thing people do to catch up to the ball by using a flip in the air

Like I see it a lot on videos but idk how to do it

Idk how to explain it

[cyan sage]

'

[left sonnet]

Hmm seems it’s just a speed flip off the wall

[woven shard]

i just diagonal flip with airroll in the same direction

[lusty galleon]

its a speed flip off of the wall as you said
its purpose is to kill z momentum of both you and the ball
its usually used to start an airdribble with what would otherwise be insufficient height/z vel

it may also be used for more momentum for cross-field plays

[woven shard]

ye

[cyan sage]

can someone coach me I’m gold 1 Asia or Europe im new to the game I’ve played like 1-2 weeks

[thin verge]

Is there ever a reason why you wouldn't want to speedflip shoot a ball (if you're lined up for it and have the boost)? It feels so much better than diagonal/side flipping

I rarely find myself using diag flips anymore, mostly side flips, normal air roll shots and speedflip shots

[cyan sage]

how can i get out of plat 1? help

[sharp karma]

if your gold then i think you should just play since you dont got the hours.

[cyan sage]

ik but I need someone to coach me if not atleast like play with me and give me tips

To all the switch players if you turn off automatic software updates will you be able to play the game without downloading the update

This is for not removing trading somehow

[ancient finch]

There is no point in giving you tips when you literally need to work on everything

[zealous junco]

i need someone to help me with ball control and game sense

oh shi say less

[supple grove]

Where do I ask people to play with me

[sturdy forge]

[supple grove]

Ty

[neon river]

guys i have mechanics but not a lot of game sense tbh and my friend which i play with is very good and we are stuck in plat any tips?

i’ve reached diamond but i’ve got to plat again

[sharp karma]

game sense comes within the hours tbh

[worthy lava]

U dont put plat and mechanics in the same sentence

[distant wolf]

I'm just giving some framework how to address this. 1. Your recovery time, 2. accuracy of the shot (your consistency), 3. shot power (and your consistency in producing power), 4. unpredictability (for example front flip shots are extremely easy to read if performed by p3 or d1 player who can hit front flip shots fairly consistently

[thin verge]

But aren't 2/3/4 reasons for using speedflip shots?

[rotund gulch]

😭😭😭

[astral burrow]

I have trouble half flipping when ball cam is on, I do just fine without but I can't do it with ball cam on :(

[rotund gulch]

this is interesting...cuz its literally the same inputs with or without ball cam

[astral burrow]

I know thats why its infuriating :c

[distant wolf]

Yes if you have solid foundations. flipless shots can be good way to surprise enemy and you have better recovery. but this is just my thought. speed flip shots are very generally applicable

[thin verge]

Yeah that's what I also thought, thanks!

[rotund gulch]

all you could do is practice..there is no easy fix for that unfortunately

just gotta get used to ball cam

[thin verge]

Mainly use flipless/DAR shots, speedflips shots and the occasional sideflip, but never diag really anymore since learning to speedflip shoot

[rotund gulch]

since ur a keyboarder, lemme ask

is it weird for me to use input acceleration time, cuz it literally made keyboard so much more easier for me

[thin verge]

Take it with a grain of salt as I'm a borderline p3/d1 player, but I have heard from everyone to not use it

[rotund gulch]

ive heard it too, and heard the disadvantages, but i literally cant get consistent w/out input acceleration time so idk

[thin verge]

I have a Wooting KB and the analog mode is inferior to just using normal KB input imo

[astral burrow]

zhai, can I send you the video rq? Maybe you can see something Im doing wrong with ball cam on

[thin verge]

I don't think any good KB player uses that AFAIK

But who am I to judge honestly

Whatever works, works in the end

[distant wolf]

@thin verge I'm also KBM player (I use also mouse). Can you send clip of your speeflip in speedflip trainer? I'm still making that more consistent

[rotund gulch]

yurrr

[thin verge]

I can later, playing FN

I use full KB btw

[rotund gulch]

ikk, and i cant get used to default binds so im considering switching

[distant wolf]

that's not big deal if you are two handed 😀

[astral burrow]

sent :D

[thin verge]

It's literally just conscious practice in freeplay

I had a thing where I kinda suboptimally diag flipped and I thought I couldn't get used

But if you go into freeplay everyday for 5 mins even and consciously practice you will get used

[thin verge]

Haha yeah

What do you struggle with? I mainly struggle with getting 50-58 ms on the stall consistently

Or not stall, cancel*

[distant wolf]

@rotund gulch I recommend switching. KBM offers much more customization and personalization. You get much better maintenance and durability

also: you hold controller with your full hands? what happens then to your controller? it's get dirty? for comparison you just press lightly on your keyboard keys and they don't get that dirty over time

[distant wolf]

just the most common thing which is that my W->S happens before diag flip. So I need to postpone that.

[rotund gulch]

keyboard acceleration input time, its at the bottom of the "controls" section in the settings

[thin verge]

Oh I see, yeah that is annoying

The 50ms you get consistently? Btw sent you a clip in dms

[rotund gulch]

its basically gives kbm an controller like feeling. so the inputs smoothly scale from zero to max instead of instantly maxing out on a button click

[distant wolf]

Yes I think so. But maybe we can see the progress over time. We could both share clips

[rotund gulch]

what do i change to tho..

[distant wolf]

I mean if you are on controller and then consider swithing to KBM. I did that direction

[rotund gulch]

yeah, i alr switched, i kinda hit a roadblock on my skill on controller

i just cant get used to default binds

[thin verge]

That's nice, that's pretty much my only issue with them now, doing a couple everyday to build up the speed

[thin verge]

Yeah I sent you one

[rotund gulch]

cuz for some reason, w my keyboard, i cant press Q for arl, while pressed A and S for that adjustment

[distant wolf]

@rotund gulch I use F to rear view. And general/universal air roll from shift is turned off

[rotund gulch]

or i cant press E for arl, and press D and S for that adjustment

[distant wolf]

yes. that's one big problem. that's why you should use air roll left

or some more fancy things like having air roll left/right on your mouse

[thin verge]

Wait what

Your keyboard doesn't recognize?

Yeah for people actually playing KBM I also think having DAR on the mouse is optimal

[distant wolf]

maybe you could also play with hybrid setup and have DAR on your mouse + QE

[onyx dome]

I used to be in diamond until my duo quit no I keep going in an out of play and diamond solo queuing is pain any tips?

[thin verge]

1s if you don't want to blame your teammates 😉 Or find a current main duo in RL discords like this one

[peak thunder]

Tips in how to not keep passing to the other team when you do an aerial

[cyan sage]

Don't do an aerial

[peak thunder]

Fair enough

[cyan sage]

Aerials aren't needed anyway

[tall nebula]

well u should learn car control first

and aerials are needed if u want to rank up

not wall to air dribble

but simple aerials and fast aerials are most needed

[cyan sage]

Nah

[ionic juniper]

yo im lookin to get better at the game but i have some questions (@ me if u respond)

[uncut hedge]

hello

[ionic juniper]

u tryna help or nah?

[uncut hedge]

i think so

[ionic juniper]

alr ill ask

im like d3 rn and i still use free air roll as my main

[uncut hedge]

nah i quit im plat 2

[ionic juniper]

zawg

😥

[near yew]

u should try to bind air roll left/right

[harsh abyss]

switch to directional air roll

[ionic juniper]

yea that was my question

but like im d3 rn and when i switch to air roll right idk how to control it

[harsh abyss]

when you speed flip (if you can) do you flip to the right or to the left

[uncut hedge]

hehe im a kbm player and i use q/e to air roll im just too good

[ionic juniper]

i can sometimes do a speed flip and i flip to the left

when i used free air roll

[harsh abyss]

then you should probably be using air roll left

[ionic juniper]

i moved to the left bc im used to having my thumb go bottom left

[harsh abyss]

use the air roll thats more natural to you / wherever you usually flip

[ionic juniper]

right but when i use air roll left i have to move it to the right

i cant control it really

and when i use air roll right i feel like its more easier to use

[harsh abyss]

When you use air roll left youre stick is going to be mainly on the left...

not the right

[signal lintel]

You can start practicing dar (directional air roll) now and not start using it in ranked for a while. Don't take away normal air roll

[ionic juniper]

ive watched yt vids that said push it bottom right?

[harsh abyss]

yeah nvm im tweekin, I should prob have my game open

[ionic juniper]

yuh

[harsh abyss]

If you like air roll right more then thats cool no need to switch.

Start practicing in training mode, it just comes with time

[ionic juniper]

alr alr

thanks

[quasi pond]

Tips to get more consistents double taps

[harsh abyss]

If I were learning dar again I would still do the same thing. First I would just practice flying from backboard to backboard while using dar, flipping off in different directions to force you to use DAR to fix your car positioning.

After that start practicing on kevperts aerial car control to get used to using DAR to fly in different directions and hit angled shots. Then what I did since I didn't have bakkesmod since I was on xbox was use the pillars map on training mode and just continuously fly in a figure 8

[harsh abyss]

practice them a lot

[ionic juniper]

1 whats DAR and also i dont really know how to control my car with air roll right i dont understand how to move

[harsh abyss]

how do you even get scammed

[quasi pond]

im hardstuck on c3.
You have tips to get gc?

[ionic juniper]

^ yea lmao

[heavy halo]

so we traded nicley he gave me creds

i gave him my standart in crimson

[harsh abyss]

directional air roll. to use air roll right its kinda simple.

Push your stick to the bottom left to turn your car to the right/

Push your stick to the top left to turn it to the left. Don't focus on using the right side of the analog stick

[heavy halo]

and then he said he like it and he just left

[harsh abyss]

most of your beginning movements will just be using the top and bottom of the left stick

[harsh abyss]

Wanna play a game

[ionic juniper]

i see and should i be pushin down it all the way or nah?

[quasi pond]

Okay we can hop on cas

[harsh abyss]

Yeah, to the bottom left. You'll slowly start building muscle memory on which way you need to move the joystick. Another good tip is to just float in the air then push your left stick in any direction while youre air rolling to see what it does

[harsh abyss]

add my epic: piqeo

[quasi pond]

Check dms

[ionic juniper]

ohhh i see

[harsh abyss]

aint nothing there

[ionic juniper]

i havent tried gettin better at the game besides doing double taps and flip resets i jus played

[harsh abyss]

eh youre d3, thats what I was doing when I was d3

[cyan sage]

That's the best way to improve after all 😃

[harsh abyss]

I think so too, really sets you up to have good mechanics when you start ranking up

[cyan sage]

Yeah all those useful mechanics

Very helpful for ranking up

[frigid jackal]

anyone wanna help me get better dm me i have around 200 hours and i need help getting better

[ruby viper]

can somebody tell me why i have almost 500 hrs can do flip resets and basic mechanics and im still stuck in diamond.

[lone mist]

anyone wanna coach me, im gold 3 div 1 peak plat 1 div 1

[cyan sage]

Do i keep playing through the slump or take a break

[cyan sage]

Honestly keep learning those flip resets

[ruby viper]

okay

[cyan sage]

Make sure u can do doubles aswell

just went from gc1 to c2 playing with my friend last night what do I do

[cyan sage]

soloq back up?

it really is that simple

Do u understand what c2 teammates are

yes

I drag one with me to gc every season, @mortal quail

Any tips to climb up th e ranks in 1s im plat 2 full of smurfs

[sly coyote]

He said he was champ 2 😭

I still won tho

[cyan sage]

[coral girder]

how to improve my air dribbling 😭

[sharp karma]

become pro

[lyric crow]

I wonder if there is a perfect block for a ‘perfect’ speed flip if you know it’s coming.

@coral girder practice with training pack setups

[cyan sage]

take ball in air

[cyan sage]

ever considered delaying

[lyric crow]

Doesn’t work at gc lol, you get beat dcerytime then

[cyan sage]

ever considered getting better at delaying

[lyric crow]

I tried Mustying into it which kinda works but the recovery after is tricky

Lol, you’re just a troll gold player or something

[cyan sage]

what the fuck

[cyan sage]

real ig

[sharp karma]

i somehow managed to get to the same rank as i am in 2's

[cyan sage]

in what

[sharp karma]

im d1 in ranked 1's same as im d1 in 2's

[onyx dome]

I’m 1s

[civic delta]

How do I escape a rank that I'm too good to be in when I literally carry every game but still lose because most games end up being a 2v1 or my teammate throws?

Literally about to be deranked from plat 3 when I've been C2 before... my teammates all just toxic icl when all theyve done is bump me and not rotate

[onyx dome]

Instead of being the carrying tm8 wo attacks become the bridge

Become the backpack

Support ur tm8s

[civic delta]

Lol? I do that?

[onyx dome]

And play more defence

[civic delta]

I literally do wtf

[onyx dome]

Then ur hard stuck

[civic delta]

I dont just attack, bc im not like them. I have game sense

I wasnt in C2 for nothing. I can aerial, i can defend, i can attack, i can pass, i can rotate

I just cant do everything all the time

People tell me to "adjust to my teammates"

but when i do, it basically just makes it a 2v1 because my teammates at this rank chase the ball

so im having to make 5+ saves a game

[mortal quail]

bro, its not your teammates if you went from c2 to plat 3

[cyan sage]

bro thinks he's him

[onyx dome]

Fr

[cyan sage]

c2 is literally a rank for nothing

[cyan sage]

thats called being plat

[mortal quail]

sounds like you arent adjusting

[civic delta]

im sorry bro but its been especially bad lately, last 5 games every single time my teammate has either left or made it a 3v1 by throwing. i donr think you fathom what its like at this rank.

[mortal quail]

why are you being toxic to them then

[civic delta]

you havent seen my games. you just assume "oh hes bad and blames his teammates". no my teammates are all french people who get on my backs after they make a mistake

[mortal quail]

you def what a save them after they make a mistake

[cyan sage]

French people are bad tbf

[civic delta]

when did i say that?

[mortal quail]

then wonder why they leave

[civic delta]

so once again rather than giving advice youre making false generalisations

[mortal quail]

its clear you arent gonna listen to advice

[civic delta]

you dont understand what actual plats are like. most of em are kids. they will be toxic then start crying and leave.

[mortal quail]

so im telling you what you are doing wrong

and its likely you are either toxic, or ballchase to an oblivion

[mortal quail]

so why cant you beat them

[civic delta]

so youve just described my teammates.

[civic delta]

because for some reason my opponents dont throw?

plus i score several goals a game and make all these saves, i cant do everything.

[mortal quail]

maybe its you thats throwing

[cyan sage]

maximum cope

[mortal quail]

since you are the one that fell like 400 mmr

[civic delta]

just isnt tho is it, teammate last game literally bumped me off the ball when i had an open net

im sorry that i cant win 2v1s every game?

[mortal quail]

again YOU fell

[mortal quail]

you should be able to since you were c2

[civic delta]

while carrying*

[mortal quail]

its not carrying when losing

its just losing

[civic delta]

yea nah i shouldnt have to win 2v1s to rank up

[mortal quail]

how did you get c2 anyway
duo?

[civic delta]

no, its carrying while my teammate disappoints. ill admit every one in 4 games maybe i get a teammate who isnt totally worthless but the rest its just... im hitting everything while they whiff and then blame me

[cyan sage]

Wanna play @civic delta my t8 bad aswell

[civic delta]

duo but ive been close in 1s before (but that means nothing, 1s doesnt show game sense or anything)

and i did it while solo queueing 🤷‍♂️

[mortal quail]

so you got carried, now once you lost you duo you fell back down

[onyx dome]

Mabye u r throwing

[mortal quail]

figures

[civic delta]

lol? So once again rather than giving actual advice youre wrongly guessing.. typical

so why are you here in "gameplay tips" when you cant give actual gameplay tips

[mortal quail]

any advice id give you would just deny

if you want me to give advice, you first gotta accept some

[civic delta]

no, tbh i'd take ACTUAL advice. but where is the advice?

your advice is "no, your teammate didnt miss that open net then bump you when you were gonna make that save, YOU did."

[mortal quail]

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

[civic delta]

tbf thats better maybe, but whats tilt queuing?

[cyan sage]

just win imo

@mortal quail how do you always get trolled so hard

[civic delta]

just stfu imo 👍

[mortal quail]

when your mad or upset but keeping playing anyway

[cyan sage]

People always struggle with this

[civic delta]

yea i kinda DO this already.. 🤷‍♂️ but idk bro, not sure what else i can tell you because you can just write it off as "mad cuz bad skill issue"..

i can def practice what you said but i cant always do this when i have to adjust like you said to my teammates

[mortal quail]

are you pc

[civic delta]

no but i play cross platform

[narrow lark]

Hi just join here

[civic delta]

most of my teammates and opponents are pc

[mortal quail]

what platform, mainly to see if you can send me a replay

[civic delta]

ps5, but tbh i can clip it if you want

would have to try and link a YT account though

[mortal quail]

clips dont really tell much

whats your epic

or rl tracker

[cyan sage]

bro has to make a new acc rq, forgive him @mortal quail

[loud oak]

yeah ranked has been hell lately, i understand you @civic delta

mates are so bad

@mortal quail most of the time people lose because they have bad mates, in plat mates are horrible and you cant be stuck because of that

[cyan sage]

Do i keep playing through the slump or take a break!!!

[severe shuttle]

why do people ghost you on looking to play

[faint sail]

Just get better

[cyan sage]

can someone help me to do air dribbles

i can try to teach u if u want

[cyan sage]

ok

[lone mist]

anyone wanna coach me

plez

[lament wharf]

I need some help with my ability with hitting the ball because in almost every game I'm either to low or to high and I'm usually inconsistent

[sturdy forge]

what rank are u and are u airrolling or not

[cyan sage]

bro just shoot on net

[lament wharf]

In 1v1 I'm silver in 2v2 I'm gold

[sturdy forge]

well then u dont need to aerial just shoot on the ground

[cyan sage]

NO

[lament wharf]

Most of the time (especially in 2v2) my opponents would either send the ball in the air to where I would need to aerial but then I would either be to low or to high or my shots would be inconsistent cause one game my constantly hitting it but the next I'm nearly missing the ball almost every time

[sturdy forge]

then u just need to practice the shit out of it in training then eh

basically a speed flip but off the wall to catch back up to the ball on weird touches

yup

well i cant figure out how to add the flick after speed flip

i was told i have to hold w.s.d at the same time or w,s,a

never heard of a rapid reset lol

yeah i seen it before

but its a speed flip but ur car like curves up when ur done

[gentle crater]

anyone doing some coaching??

[left sonnet]

yeah but isnt it the same buttons as a speed flip

same motion

i think they said same thing without using air roll

yeah a half flip is a flip cancle too but there still differnt flips

ohh ok

[gentle crater]

its a flip cancel aswell

backflip cancel airroll=halfflip

[signal lintel]

what mode/rank?

[gentle crater]

i dmd u btw

dop u know what flip i mean tho?

[gentle crater]

u mean when u speed flip ionn te air to reach the ball faster?

[left sonnet]

yes but its a little different then speed flip

just do a flip cancel

its the fastest way

[gentle crater]

its decent but a lil slower

[left sonnet]

now i play dropshot for fun lol and ball chase

[mortal quail]

i just queue 3s, way more enjoyable than 2s

[signal lintel]

man i thought that was illegal

[left sonnet]

i use to worry about my rank to much so i just dont care anymore

[umbral crag]

playing for fun is crazy

[signal lintel]

it do be like that

[gentle crater]

not higher than me

thats for sure

[gentle crater]

just chaos

[left sonnet]

should i try solo queing 2s i dint even do my palcements yet

[mortal quail]

yes, but if you havent played 2s in awhile its gonna be rough

[left sonnet]

wym by that

[mortal quail]

its likely your mmr tanked

[left sonnet]

i see that my teamate gave them a free fgoal in the first 7 seconds

i made them forfit 4 goals

[lyric crow]

plats blaming plats... ^^ just learn to carry and dont trust teammates in lower ranks in certain spots..

[left sonnet]

thats what im doing lol

they wana ballchase so im staying passive more

[lyric crow]

in those ranks just work on hitting the ball consistently.

with some basic ground dribbling you can score most if you dont miss open nets too often.

[gentle crater]

u said plat 1 my friend

[lyric crow]

I can't remember the last time i played in that rank so it might have changed, but eh

[gentle crater]

not really

if u used to be good u wont be terrible even if u havewnt played in like a year or 2

[lyric crow]

meta changed quite a bit actually.

I dropped from gc to c2d4 early this season due to the demo fest, took me a while to adjust.

[gentle crater]

plat 1 is not high

not if ur plat 1

[lyric crow]

plats and diamonds are so toxic..xD

[gentle crater]

yea but u never dropped down to like plat diamond youll never drop more than like 3 ranks down

u did

u just deleted ur message cause ur weird

[gentle crater]

fr

[lyric crow]

depends how much drinking is involved 😛

but no., not on my main lol

[gentle crater]

i play better when drinking sometimes lol

[left sonnet]

i do lol

on my main

[gentle crater]

skill issue

what servers u play on?

[left sonnet]

so far carried my first game

[lyric crow]

placebo effect

tbf soloq is easier than duoq atm, riddled with smurfs due to f2p.

but if you dont play for rank but just to get better youll get up eventually imo.

[gentle crater]

i dont play enough for that

ok bud

[lyric crow]

oh well, im out of this chat ^^

[gentle crater]

bye bye

[signal lintel]

👋

[left sonnet]

i lag for one second and they score this is what happens when i dont carry

[signal lintel]

Just don't lag then 🤷‍♂️

[gentle crater]

excuses

[worthy lava]

Bruh i have to take a break

The burnout is insane

Peaked to hit c2 then next day i can't focus

[pearl jolt]

Hi

I’m gold rn

[stark atlas]

does anyone have tips to get out of plat

[left sonnet]

i won most so far

now i got some kid who whiffs everything

why is eveyr mode i play win lose win lose win lose

[cyan sage]

Yeah the recent addition of f2p has been crazy

[stark atlas]

i have been working on power shots more and i do get some 50s so my tm8 can follow it up
also congrats on ur consistency

[gentle crater]

flip resets, airdribbles

[stark atlas]

ima do a ceiling flip reset musty double tap will that help

[gentle crater]

prob

air dribble is good to learn control

[left sonnet]

im just tired oi carryed every damn game

what am i supose to do

i won 3 games then lsot 3 its alywas like this

[stark atlas]

i got so obssesed with style in shots i started doing air roll from gold 2💀

[left sonnet]

same here im jsut a mechanical player

[abstract minnow]

I'm a plat the wants to be a freestyler I'm in Freeplay rn practicing ceiling to pogo mustys

[mortal quail]

its likely due to you not being able to adapt
youll face players who counter you so you lose

[left sonnet]

im just use to playign people who hit the ball every time

[stark atlas]

🫡

[abstract minnow]

That's you not adapting like he said

[stark atlas]

i actually just played against a smruf c1 who was pulling of flip resets and double taps

[mortal quail]

im gc1 and cant air dribble

well peak gc1

[abstract minnow]

Thanks I guess?

[stark atlas]

he juked me before i could bonk him

[wise smelt]

c1 in what

[stark atlas]

smurfing in a plat lobby

[wise smelt]

cas?

[mortal quail]

i know more plats who flip reset than champs

[stark atlas]

whats cas

[wise smelt]

casual

[stark atlas]

oh

[abstract minnow]

The thing about flip reset is their hard to defend mainly because of how he could easily change the direction of the ball so as you hit him it rolls in your net

[stark atlas]

no ranked

[wise smelt]

o damn

[stark atlas]

agreed

[mortal quail]

99% of players have horrible flip resets

it just does nothing

not even, let them try and just miss

[wise smelt]

dont give them space to go for a reset

[mortal quail]

or prejump off backboard

[stark atlas]

well if i encounter a smurf again will do

[mortal quail]

flip resets are scary when they are air dribbling

but again 99% of the time its not scary

thats literally rotation 101

[stark atlas]

my friend in the vc when he started doing flip reset went shiver me timber

[left sonnet]

now i remember why i dont solo que

he keeps giving them the ball idk what to do

[stark atlas]

how hard is it actually to do a flip reset

[south dock]

second nature once you practice enough

[stark atlas]

i cant even focus on learning to ground dribble
