[latent isle]

am I wrong

[cyan sage]

yes

ball chase and boom works

[latent isle]

maybe if ur fast enough

[cyan sage]

sounds like a skill issue

[latent isle]

well everyone in champ ball chases and booms

thats why they're champ

so you must simply be faster

remember kids, if you're hardstuck, you simply need to play faster

[serene flower]

Anyone able to help me find where i’m at basics wise? i have about 20 hours so far

[low yarrow]

can anyone help me be good or train me

[drifting topaz]

I know this is a reach but would someone take a look at my DAR and see if i have any bad habits?

nvm im cracked

[orchid bobcat]

plat mindset😂

dont boom every single person in c3 i play with doesnt trust and let their teamate take control of the ball its not ones but still dribble and flick not just bang its an easy save if you just bang it @cyan sage

[cyan sage]

If c3s could save, i wouldnt recommend banging the ball, luckily, they cant, so i recommend banging the ball

[orchid bobcat]

thats not the case for all c3s

but most

its just abt adjusting

[cyan sage]

its the case for all c3s

[solemn storm]

how do i aim my car while im aerialing?

[hollow saffron]

Any tips for dribbling controlling ?

[chrome knoll]

Use air roll

[hollow saffron]

On the ground sorry not specific

[chrome knoll]

For keeping the ball on your car or just being able to control the ball on the ground?

[vagrant orbit]

Don’t go to fast

[hollow saffron]

Keeping ball on top of the car

[hollow saffron]

Hard when your in 1s in there just hittin every chance they get

[vagrant orbit]

And

[drifting topaz]

@hollow saffron practice and feather your boost\ acceleration when on top of your car

[vagrant orbit]

And

[hollow saffron]

Ok I’ll give this a try thanks

[vagrant orbit]

And?

[hollow saffron]

Bro is yappin

[vagrant orbit]

Why

Explain why I should

It would be a waste of time if your silver

Generally gc will beat silver

[chrome knoll]

If he is saying that hes silver and has beat a c2, either he is lying, he's a smurf on his account that he's silver, or the "c2" he beat was not actually a c2

[vagrant orbit]

I will likely beat a c2 still

[chrome knoll]

makes sense

[hollow saffron]

Yo and also when I’m in a game it’s more difficult to get the ball on top of my car because it’s moving any tips on that ?

[vagrant orbit]

Proof

Why would you say you can beat c2 if your gc

[chrome knoll]

let it bounce then immediately hit it, then get it on top of your car

[drifting topaz]

Go on YouTube and look up cutting the ball, this will help with many set ups

[vagrant orbit]

Okay sir

[hollow saffron]

Ok thanks

[hollow saffron]

Alright thanks

[chrome knoll]

Or you can try to cut the ball midair before it hits the ground

[ancient kelp]

I’m C1 how can I progress and what should I work on

[hollow saffron]

Yeah Ik what u mean with this for some reason I always send the ball forward

[drifting topaz]

Consistency @ancient kelp

[chrome knoll]

I'm gold 3 almost plat lol so i'm not really one to give advice anyway

[vagrant orbit]

Depends

[ancient kelp]

🤔

[hollow saffron]

I mean I’m only gold 2 div 3 so your advice helps me kinda

[vagrant orbit]

I recommend bakkes mod

For whatever you think you struggle in

[drifting topaz]

^^^

[vagrant orbit]

Lots of things could be wrong with your gameplay

[finite sun]

how can i improve my on and off ball positioning?

[vagrant orbit]

Game sense
Mechanics

[ancient kelp]

My mechs are pretty good (been freestyling for a while) I just want to know how I could improve game sense so that I can flow with higher ranks

It’s hard where I’m at due to domestic issues (tm8s)

[drifting topaz]

Check out Flakes on YouTube @ancient kelp

[ancient kelp]

Thanks 🌙

[cursive tartan]

i need a coach to help me learn fast aerial/air dribbles

[daring rune]

yo im d1 and im stuck looking for coach

[cyan sage]

are you pc

[daring rune]

Yea

[cyan sage]

nvm

[pastel iris]

Yah

[tired crow]

support your teammate more when you are rotating back to net, meaning cut off the opponent's play/threat to relieve your teammate of pressure and to give you both the opportunity to have some sort of boost ready to defend and/or counter attack

this will help show a blatant attempt at rotating and allows your teammate to push up while you come support

[timber jetty]

Anyone giving free coaching for d3-c1 area Oceania?

[sterile kettle]

[nocturne radish]

Can someone coach me

im iron 3

not that good

[sand dragon]

Looking for someone to help me get better ball/ car control and wall shots I’m ps5

[hardy mural]

Is it "wrong" to have air roll left and powerslide on the same button (l1 in this case) because I recently changed and I have realised that sometimes when trying to recover, I can't just hold l1 since I will air roll before landing my car. Help please:)

[charred oak]

yes

[quasi condor]

anyone can coach me plat 1 div 2

[upbeat escarp]

silver 3 not iron 3

[nocturne radish]

my fault

someone coach me pls

[upbeat escarp]

np i only wanted to say that

[cyan sage]

It's fine

It's not ideal but it does the job

Just play normal and try new settings that your comfortable with

[quasi condor]

learn the half flip and wave dash

[hardy mural]

What binds are ideal? Or what do u use?

[heavy ridge]

this is actually ideal. i have this too, only problem is you have to learn to time it properly with your recoverys so you wont air roll before but will drift in time for the landing

the only problem is you cannot walldash like more then 5 times, but as a gc3 player i dont even use walldashes yet so

[uneven forum]

As a pro dumb dumb gc1 player I wavedash constantly on scuffed controls I came up with in gold back in 2017

[heavy ridge]

i mean back like 2 years ago when i was plat asw i had like horrible binds asw

[nocturne radish]

I play valorant so I had it mixed up

[upbeat escarp]

oh ok

[nocturne radish]

Yeah

[uneven forum]

My problem is that I got so used to mine normal feels weird especially since I have nearly 6k hours on em

[heavy ridge]

6k damn

thas crazy

[indigo citrus]

What should i learn first ground dribbling or air dribbling (im gold)?

[cyan sage]

ground, air will come soon

[indigo citrus]

Ok

[heavy ridge]

ground for sure

not even diamond, c1 at a minimum

[quaint charm]

Does anyone wanna drop their sensitivity settings so I can try them out I’m on controller

[mint palm]

1.46 1.49 0.07 0.70

[cyan sage]

It's not ideal if u use regular air roll aswell

[heavy ridge]

anyone gc uses DAR and DAL instead of regular

[mortal quail]

Many players in gc+ use regular air roll alongside a directional air roll

[crystal cliff]

but usually its people that used it before DAR was a thing so they are used to it

[silent bramble]

like damn

[heavy ridge]

and thats just stupid

[mortal quail]

Why is it stupid

[crystal cliff]

its preference and how they like to control their car?

[heavy ridge]

regular air roll you can turn in 2 dimensions at once, with directional, you get all 3, it is physically faster. you can look it up on yt for someone to explain this more thoroughly

[heavy ridge]

@crystal cliff

[leaden eagle]

Anyone able to coach

[crystal cliff]

i dont need someone to explain it more thoroughly im in the top 0%

[warped moat]

dm

[leaden eagle]

7mins

[mortal quail]

No I know why directional air roll is better, but comfort>viability

[ornate harbor]

need help on breezi flick

[leaden eagle]

Anyone who can coach me

[warped moat]

i dmed you

[leaden eagle]

Oh ok

[leaden eagle]

How much is it

[cyan sage]

Most people use regular and 1 directional 😶

And then bind powerslide to there regular

[heavy ridge]

i mean they should do what they want im not gonna judge

[heavy ridge]

mhh i guess, for me viability>comfort

[cyan sage]

They use air roll for like shooting and recovery and directional for aerial plays and stuff etc;

Most pros have it setup like that

[umbral crag]

some pros don't even have dar bound

[heavy ridge]

yeah idk, i used to have that but for me having both directional is just faster in recoverys and for me thats nice to have

[quasi condor]

Someone coach/play with me im plat 1 div 1

[indigo citrus]

I accidentally reached plat 3 and now im getting destroyed ( i was gold 1)

In 1v1s

[cyan sage]

Class

[fringe grail]

Is there anyone here who can giv a champ some tips

[heavy ridge]

mena flips?? never heard of those

[heavy ridge]

i can but youre gonna need to be a little more specific than 'just tips'

what would you like tips on?

real

me every night at 3 am

"it is what it is"

whas that?

ohh hope you get better soon

[fringe grail]

Flicks are very difficult for me, as well as speed flips

[heavy ridge]

flicks and dribbles are just practice, there isnt really any magic tip that helps you flick better. if you clip a speed flip and put it in #gameplay-highlights ill give you tips on that tho

[fringe grail]

Ik which pack to use. But idk what to do with my fingers on my controller

[heavy ridge]

look up a speed flip tutorial first then

[umbral crag]

don't need dar for that

[umbral crag]

i play kbm is same either way

[orchid condor]

everytime i look here theres some weird new shit being discussed lmao

[silver torrent]

who can coach me dm me

My peak rank is d2 before quitting. I got back this month and I want to get my shot accuracy and defense back.

[smoky zealot]

🙂

[paper thistle]

best thing to UNINSTALL THE GAME

[pastel iris]

Huh?

[honest blaze]

I’m plat 2 I need a coach/someone to teach me how to get better “fyi I am a fast learner”

[lusty galleon]

practice shooting

[lusty galleon]

bro you gotta play the game you dont need coaching you need practice

[grizzled jungle]

anyone able to give me some quick coaching im d2

[brazen swallow]

at your rank just practice/perfect new mechanics, work on accuracy, and binge watch sosa's tiktok daily. you'll may not see immediate results but trust its working

[thorn geyser]

Is it impossible to speed flip if you have too much input lag?

[ornate cape]

anyone can teach me how to do then damn speed flip, cos i've been trying for 2 hours rn with all the tutorials but it ain't working

[thorn geyser]

Same here I think I just have too much input lag to properly flip cancel

[ornate cape]

i fixed it somehow, but it's the same thing tbh

[thorn geyser]

It’s annoying as fuck because it means I’ll always lose kickoffs because of something I can’t control

[signal lintel]

No, input lag wouldn't affect mechanics like that which are muscle memory and not reaction-based. Probably makes it harder to learn tho

You really don't need speedflip kickoffs below GC or so tho

[thorn geyser]

I do though

[signal lintel]

You don't tho. It would give you more options but you don't need it to kickoff safely

[crystal cliff]

speed flips will help tho

[twilit heart]

im plat 3 i can speed flip air dribble and half flip etc but i js can’t get to diamond

[tired crow]

boom the ball less, support your teammate more in defense, collect small pads more

[neat spruce]

I don't have many hours myself on the game (just logged a bit over 100 hours) but I can teach you what I know.

[tiny bison]

is there a way to bind something on 2 different buttons

[solar beacon]

can anyone coach me

[slender leaf]

Y'all I'm D2 div 4 1 game away from D3 i don't want to sell this shit any tips

😭

Impossible

I didn't play it yet I'm looking for someone in #looking-for-group

Thanks man

[ornate talon]

/clip

[slender leaf]

Yk what I'll just random queue cuz it's 3 AM here

Wish me luck

We fucking lost 6-0 2 minutes in

I hate this game

We just lost 3-0 3 minutes in

Now I'm div 3

[crystal cliff]

[slender leaf]

Nah bro my teammates blame me😭😭

I was going so fucking well

I hit 4 clips today

And then i sold

I'll try

Alright

[crystal cliff]

i lost 5 games in a row, dropped to 1270 then won 16 in a row and got 1430

its possible

[slender leaf]

How the actual fuck do you win 16 in a row

[crystal cliff]

idk

just was peaking

[slender leaf]

Yeah i won 901 once

Pretty normal

Damn that's almost good

[crystal cliff]

check #gameplay-highlights @slender leaf

[slender leaf]

Anyways I'll play a game now wish me luck

Why did it reply

Just finished

We won 6-4

Lesgo

Yea lmao

Lots of kickoff goals

Most diamonds dont know how to speedflip so i just score on kickoffs

Yeee

Am i not a diamond

[crystal cliff]

diagonal flips

[slender leaf]

No, speedflips, actual speedflips

I hit the ball on that musty pack

I'm on ps4😭

I don't think so

Yeah

But I've played some diamonds that can actually speedflip

We hit the ball at the same time

On the kickoff

Dude no actual speedflips 😭

I hit the ball on tha musty speedflip pack

It doesn't?

Fr?

I don't think that's

Possible

Source i feel it in my balls

So no diamond can speedflip

Makes sense

Oh btw

I've been stuck in diamond for

A year and a half

Any tips bru

😭

[crystal cliff]

wart

thats wild

i think ive had the game for like 2 years

[slender leaf]

Yeah ik

[slender leaf]

I've had it for almost 4 years

[crystal cliff]

what the flip

[slender leaf]

Wait when did f2p drop

Anyways I've been playing since then

And I've been stuck in diamond for a long long time

It's honestly crazy

I still don't know what I'm doing wrong

[crystal cliff]

september 2019

thats wild that 2019 was 4 years ago

[slender leaf]

Yeah

And i just lost this game 3-0

I hate this game

[tired crow]

2020 not 2019

[crystal cliff]

ah mb

does anyone want to hop in game and ask about mechanics or tips in general?

[tardy drift]

yes

me

im plat 3

hardstuck

[gusty geyser]

anyone wanna help me for my flip reset I'm not sure what I need to change in order to get them consistent?

[crystal cliff]

make a call

pc only

[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

[crystal cliff]

how do u get coach roles

[cobalt crane]

I got gc2 with dar only for speedflips on console then did it again on pc

Definitely wouldn’t recommend it, but it’s more than possible to do it

[crystal cliff]

the point i was making is that you should be telling new players to use it because its better unless ur already used to NAR

[mortal quail]

Be active, actually coach, be nice, and overtime you'll get noticed

[crystal cliff]

too much effort bruh

[cobalt crane]

Free and directional air role should be used in tandem, and trying to learn air roll should come as a tool for landings primarily for new players rather than for shots

[crystal cliff]

ive never used NAR before

so ig i shouldnt be telling ppl what to do

but ik that its alot more common to use DAR

and its basically just what works for u

but i hear u that sounds like ur maximising movement potential

DM me if u wanna hop in a game and ask questions! english only

[neat lichen]

Yo how do I keep control of it when on the ground. Should I be dribbling it what

[crystal cliff]

what is of it?

the ball?

[neat lichen]

Yes

[crystal cliff]

wanna reword that

[cobalt crane]

Likely best to bounce dribble or normal dribble

[crystal cliff]

is there a rank for coaching?

like what rank r u guys

[wraith pier]

@crystal cliff If ya need some help I gotchu

[violet hull]

Need help for 1s

[crystal cliff]

with?

[wraith pier]

@crystal cliff anything

[crystal cliff]

uh

i didnt ask for help

im confused

[crystal cliff]

can u teach me how to quad maktuf?

[wraith pier]

didnt you ask for a coach role?

[crystal cliff]

yeah

[violet hull]

Could someone coach me in 1s

I’m plat1

[crystal cliff]

i dont play 1s but watch squishys 1s videos they are good

different level but it should still help

[violet hull]

Ight

Thxs

[crystal cliff]

i meant as in how do i become a coach

[crystal cliff]

np

[violet hull]

I’m close to hitting p2 rn

[crystal cliff]

just keep consistency and you will improve

and watch ur games back and see what ur doing wrong

[potent cloak]

question about body's, I like the octane hitbox but dislike the look of the octane and the fennec, are there any other body's that are on a similar level of viability?

[crystal cliff]

as in what cars have the octane hitbox?

[potent cloak]

yeah

but like, not crappy ones that dont fit well

[crystal cliff]

you can find that if u google it

well fennec is perfect

thats why its so popular atm

[potent cloak]

its so boring looking tho

i mean like something that spices things up a bit but still fits decently

[crystal cliff]

if u want something cool looking it wont match the hitbox

octane is exactly what ur describing

anyone want coaching'

[cyan sage]

it's called the octane

[potent cloak]

How on earth is the octane spicing things up, its the most basic bitch car in the game next to the fennec

[cyan sage]

just use the dominus

[unique zinc]

Pretty sure takumi or takumi rx-t has same hitbox as octane

[crystal cliff]

he wants a car that matches octane hitbox thats "spicy" all the cool cars dont match hitbox and octane is cool looking

anyone want coaching

[unique zinc]

I'm down, mainly want coaching on aerial control. No matter how much time I spent in freeplay or training I can't get the hang of it

[crystal cliff]

got any clips of u trying

[silver torrent]

who can coach me

[unique zinc]

Wish I did, kinda hard to clip stuff from ps4 and then getting them to discord. Too smart for me.

[crystal cliff]

dm

[silver torrent]

check dm

[wide zinc]

tip to get gc1 i am c3

[dusky fiber]

Looking at yourself and see what u can improve, dont play too risky (no overcomitting in corners, dont always fully challenge,..), try rotating more around the small pads this makes u stay more in rotation, try look more around this makes decision making easier (if u see your mate is back u challenge,etc.), play more 1s to improve individually

[cyan sage]

something only low ranks care about, in high ranks only thing that matters is accurate hitbox

[cursive ice]

how do i stop my car from 'sticking' to the ceiling when attempting ceiling shots?

[crystal cliff]

hit the ball better and hold powerslide but theres no real way to stick less

[storm aspen]

they don't know team play

they are ass but not like my teamate

[proper stratus]

Well ur tm8 might have a hard time playing "normally" or "well" if you have a awkward playstyle

[worthy lava]

U just notice ur tm8s mistakes more

Also sometimes u will get good tm8s and bad opponents

U dont NEED to press it

But idk i dont know how to musty

[frail zinc]

a musty is just a dribble, single jump and then eitehr push forward and then back flip or pull back till u go almost all the way around and then back flip

there isnt any airroll

unless u mess up and in that case its at your discretion when the air roll would be in order to fix it

the one similar to a musty that involves air roll would be a breezi

where you use a tornado spin to manouver your car behind the ball and then do a musty

[silver cloak]

do you guys have any tips on controling your air roll in the air

[quasi condor]

can someone coach me? (plat 1) DM me

[storm aspen]

ofc

but i just want a teamate that can pass the ball and don't ego

i am so often in good posisiton for a pass to goal

but the jsut go for the ego flick and miss

[cyan sage]

everyone egos, you have to realise everyone can pass but in certain situations they cant

[cyan sage]

they could think it is sensible to go for he flick, e.g. an enmey could be behind u

[crystal cliff]

anyone need coaching

[cyan sage]

what rank r u?

[crystal cliff]

gc2

[cyan sage]

no ty then

[silver cloak]

@crystal cliffcan you coach me

[crystal cliff]

why even ask

dm me

[cyan sage]

u could be ssl? and it would help me then i would of said ye, and im gc2

[crystal cliff]

what rank r u

[storm aspen]

i can remembr 2 people that actuallyt did pass play

[cyan sage]

gc2

[storm aspen]

i do

[silver cloak]

im hard stuck c1

[cyan sage]

gl, i struggle in champ and im gc2

[mint lion]

i just need help, cant play against ppl who use 15% of their brain

[cyan sage]

makes no sense since no-one in the world is even using 15%

[silver cloak]

can one of you guys coach me

[mint lion]

and since u didnt get what i tried to say im not even going to bother asking u

[crystal cliff]

then u should not be gc2

[cyan sage]

ur blaming your teamates dont forget its both of ur faults no matter what he does or u do, ur allowing ur tm8 to do that and if u dont want to contest ur tm8, play in positions hes not

[mint lion]

not my tm8s

[cyan sage]

inconsistency in champ is overwhelming

[mint lion]

my oppnents are just off grid, they so dumb it works

catches me off guard

[cyan sage]

just play where they arent

[crystal cliff]

we acshually use 100% of our brains

[mint lion]

oh mate if it was that easy

[cyan sage]

no we dont

[cyan sage]

nothing is easy, u just gotta try, if u wanna get out of that rank

[mint lion]

you probaly one of them that i talk about

[cyan sage]

me? i get told that iom that 1 tm8 everyone wants

[mint lion]

cap

must be diamond then

[cyan sage]

when im passive im very passive when im aggressive im very aggressive i always pass out of muscle memory and have fast rotations and recovery, v mechanical too

[mint lion]

since gcs dont even say that when they get hard carried by some random 2200

Explain mechanical

[cyan sage]

how would u like me to explain it? the meaning or like what am i doing that is called mechanical

[mint lion]

Fast rotations "gc2" mmmm

Do u have basic comp mechs or acctual freestyle mechs

[cyan sage]

gc2 is sheise anyway, they dont take possession they just throw it away

[mint lion]

true

[cyan sage]

i would say imbetween i cant do CRAZY things but i can consistenly flip reset musty and etc

[mint lion]

solid mechs, anyway i think u know what im talking about taht they are too dumb for you

[cyan sage]

what tm8s?

[mint lion]

the oposing team

[cyan sage]

yes

thats why i hate champ

[mint lion]

i dont mind having a shit tm8 but playing agasint em is just unreal

[cyan sage]

exactly

what rank r u?

[mint lion]

idk what to do, mid gc2

[cyan sage]

ye bas oppenent rlly mes u up

[worldly zephyr]

I am looking for quick shot and power, which flick works best to learn??

[mortal quail]

A basic flick or a 45
Both good and easy to learn

[worldly zephyr]

Thanks 👍

[lilac whale]

you get huge benefits off a foward 45 too, like instant recoveries and no loss of speed

[worldly zephyr]

Is training packs better for this or just freeplay??

[lilac whale]

so in my 4200 hours of experience the answer would freeplay 100%, there really arent many training packs that are game-like scenarios other than kevpert defense packs. Use freeplay as a fluid space where you never stop or reset the ball, you always are constantly hitting it and chasing it or dribbling it or defending it with your "pass ball" key bind. Make sure you keep moving and stay fluid. That's what has been most important for many players. You will literally be playing freeplay like a real match that way.

[worldly zephyr]

Best reply I ever got. Thanks man 👍

[lilac whale]

not a problem, don't mind at all.

[vale harbor]

anyone c2+ in 1s able to play a few games against me n let me know what i can improve

Gold: Get down the basics of the game such as rotations, positioning, power clears, decent saving, shooting, (not passing), reads, and keeping control of the ball. Once you have a good grasp on all of these its a matter of time before you get to plat.

[hot forge]

but i have this 😦

[mortal quail]

You would be plat, those are just the basics, you probably lack one or more and that's what holding you back

[quasi pond]

Can someone analyse my replay ?

[hot forge]

but how i can see what are holding me?

[hot forge]

if i say my teammates i will look like a big noob?

[mortal quail]

You can watch your own replays, focus on one thing at a time, there are many options

[hot forge]

ok

i try get plat first at 2x2 or 1v1?

[mortal quail]

2s is probably easier

[quasi pond]

Someone that is gc+ can analyse my replay?

[crystal cliff]

no

[quasi pond]

Didnt ask for you

I asked for who wants

[spiral bronze]

I’m d2-d3 what should I be doing to improve so that I can hit champ

[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

[spiral bronze]

Thank you

[crystal cliff]

u asked for a gc

[hot forge]

is my teammates

[quasi pond]

Okay but if u dont wanr dont talk

[hot forge]

i see this in my last match

[quasi pond]

Want

[quasi pond]

Have tips for c3?

[mortal quail]

I don't have any generic tips for c3 as every player is different with different issues. But my advice is to first rewatch your own replays and learn to play better as a team

[umbral crag]

#gameplay-tips message see this convo

[chilly kindle]

does anyone know the best dribbling workshop map?

[remote furnace]

unfortunately no, I've been playing for 2 months and i'm still silver lool

[serene willow]

solo que 3s is horrible

[wet kernel]

dribble 2 overhaul

[chilly kindle]

i already have it but the ball doesnt have a height indicater so i thought there could be better

[wet kernel]

need bakkesmod plugin that fixes that

other dribble maps are gonna have the same issue

[chilly kindle]

whats the plugin called?

[wet kernel]

https://bakkesplugins.com/plugins/view/169

[mortal quail]

Why would you need a height indicator

[wet kernel]

dribble maps

[umbral crag]

just look at the ball

[wet kernel]

sure let me just dribble with ball cam on

[umbral crag]

it's useful to be able to do in game

[wet kernel]

youre not supposed to dribble with ball cam on lol

[umbral crag]

ppl sometimes dribble with ballcam when coming from the side so they can see the opp behind the ball if they are trying to hide behind the blind spot w/o needing to use right stick

[wet kernel]

yeah but they aint dribbling with ball cam on to catch the ball while its high up in the air

they use the height indicator on the floor

[umbral crag]

sure they can

[wet kernel]

nah its a lot of things to think about when catching if you also have to worry about switching off ballcam while micro adjusting where the ball is on the car

just use the ball indicator

makes life easy

[mortal quail]

Do you mean the ball outline that's on the floor when you turn off ball cam? Because that shows up for me on all maps

[wet kernel]

yea, on dribble workshop maps, it doesnt show properly cus the ball falls through the floor, you have to use a bakkesmod plugin that fixes that

[mortal quail]

If it falls through the floor you failed anyway

[wet kernel]

we are just talking about the indicator, the indicator doesnt work properly

the inner circle within the circle

[umbral crag]

not really all of it becomes pretty automatic. muscle memory go brrr

[wet kernel]

normally gets larger the closer the ball is to the ground, its broken on workshop maps unless you use the plugin fix

[mortal quail]

The indicator is there it just doesn't show height but that shouldn't really matter

Since you use it to see where the ball is rather than how high it is, thats why looking at the ball is for

[wet kernel]

still rather use the indicator since its helpful when you need to flick it then catch it

cus im using the indicator in a match

[umbral crag]

you still don't need it to flick or catch

[wet kernel]

? its helpful in the workshop map cus it requires you to flick it and then catch it again

and when you are catching the indicator helps

[umbral crag]

yea but you don't need the indicator

just look at the ball

[wet kernel]

damn thats crazy, ill just use my eyes.
ffs its not impossible to play without the indicator, i never said it was, im saying its a useful tool to use, and rather have it than not

[mortal quail]

Just use your judgement to see how high the ball is, its good practice in game anyway

[umbral crag]

damn thats crazy, ill just use my eyes.
I was about to say that lol

[wet kernel]

stop being pedantic and being "well achtually 🤓 ☝️ "

[umbral crag]

^

[wet kernel]

cool but in game youll have ball indicator too

you watch any high level pros like in 1s and they are using it all the time

[mortal quail]

They use the indicator but the height doesn't matter much

[umbral crag]

at some point you don't want to be looking at your car/ball the whole time either. you'll want to be able to just control while watching the opps/tm8s

[wet kernel]

holy fuck, am i saying its do or die with the ball height indicator? its a tool to be used for situations where you want to catch the ball into a dribble, in between turning ball cam off and adjusting where the car is for the catch

yall like "but you dont have to use it", never said you had to

[chilly kindle]

okay guys the ball indicator is there for a reason its there to help you with ball control if you practice without it it will hinder you learning all the places you car should be in aligned with the ball and of course youre going to stop using it in the future but that comes with muscle memory and visual connection

[mortal quail]

When your actively avoiding a map because it doesn't have a indicator, it sounds like do or die to me

[wet kernel]

is it so hard to want to use a tool that works in a normal game but not in a workshop map that specific to using it?

youre not going to flick catch, flick catch constantly in a match anyway

its purely to build the muscle memory to control

[chilly kindle]

well if theres a tool in the game thats meant to help you and you use in every game you would rather that be there in training since it translates better to in game than if the ball indicator was not there at all

[mortal quail]

We aren't talking about the ball indicator, rather the height on it, which personally I never used or cared for. Why, because I won't use it in game anyway. As g4 said, you won't flick and catch often. So it's pointless to worry about it

[wet kernel]

still useful for a workshop map that requires the catches, cus if you fuck up its a restart from checkpoint

[umbral crag]

I still don't get how it is useful for catches

[wet kernel]

why do you even care about how much it matters anyway, just cus you dont use it, doesnt mean others dont

[mortal quail]

Its still doable without it is my point, as I've done it before

I'm being helpful because your avoiding a good training method just because you can't use a pointless game mechanic

[chilly kindle]

what do you mean you dont use it at all? i use it for a visual representation of when my wheels should be for a high back flip and ground to air dribble do you not? its not just used for when the balls in the air

[wet kernel]

ive already given the fix for it, hes not going to be avoiding the training method

damn you really wanna die on this hill

[umbral crag]

I just look at the ball for that. it's all muscle memory

[chilly kindle]

its definitely not useless you just dont use it to its fullest potential since you learned to control the ball in a different way

[wet kernel]

youre not looking at the ball when you are catching, you are looking at the floor indicator

[halcyon quail]

How do i do flicks consistently?

[umbral crag]

I am lol. I can catch the ball while playing with my peripheral vision where I can only see the ball clearly

[chilly kindle]

well i dont have that muscle memory yet so i have to use it until i do

its all a beginning to an end everyone starts somewhere

[sturdy forge]

Ye using the floor indicator is imo better than the lil arrow to catch it not nessecarily needed cause I just leave ball cam on to catch the ball

[chilly kindle]

but there is also a lot of cases where you need to keep your eyes on the ground for players than looking in the air to catch it like that

[sturdy forge]

Well ya just quickly flick between the cams to see where the fella is then decide what to do ig in 1s I'll just do car cam but in 2s it's mostly just ball cam

[chilly kindle]

if that works for you that's good keep it up but i doesn't always make the best decision at the time all the time but i get your point is valid

[halcyon quail]

How do i air dribble

[delicate blade]

jump off wall and air dribble

simple

jump off wall and fly towards bottom of bal

[dusky fiber]

here a guide if u start getting into air dribbles: most important thing with air dribbles is the set up, if u can do that right u can get good tries, in general take your time with the set up at first. 1. try to get already on the ground in a good line so u dont go crazy left right before touching the ball. 2. try to get the ball as high as possible without it touching the ceiling. 3. u want to toch the ball when it has that up-movement and above the corner, otherwise the ball either goes to straight up the wall or too far away. 4. try to get in a similar speed as the ball. 5. At first, AS SOON as u touch the ball jump, rlly as soon as u touch it. When u focus on all these steps u should be already be very close to the ball after the set up. Then u just need to air roll in a straight position and try out the dribbles. Also try doing it in freeplay. Training packs can be good but there the set up is done for u and u might be able to actually dribble then but cant use it in game as u dont know how to set up, u can also send me vid of yours and i will try and give more individual tipps

[halcyon quail]

I find it very difficult to control my air roll in the air and making tiny adjustments

[dusky fiber]

try dont using it too much at first, just after jumping off wall try and correct yourself, but dont spin around

[halcyon quail]

I see people that air roll constantly in the air while air dribbling and i have no idea how they do it and i cant defend it either

[dusky fiber]

its not needed, usually its not that hard to defend, but always depends what mode, in 2s try and fly to the wall, then he needs to go above and usually cant score cause he is too high, but rlly depends on the elo, if u are higher its worse if u try to predict and he gets the reset cause then he just chups it over the second man

[halcyon quail]

Ok

[midnight fjord]

https://www.xbox.com/play/media/T2Gxm8H8yq
heres a clip of me trying to do air dribble can someone tell me what shouldi work on more since i cant hit 80% of tries

[rain igloo]

im d3 div 4 any champs or higher wanna cas or private match to show me wat i need to get 9 mmr😭

[dusky fiber]

try to watch out for these steps

[dusky fiber]

@midnight fjord

[dusky fiber]

Looking at yourself and see what u can improve, dont play too risky (no overcomitting in corners, dont always fully challenge,..), try rotating more around the small pads this makes u stay more in rotation, try look more around this makes decision making easier (if u see your mate is back u challenge,etc.), play more 1s to improve individually

[rain igloo]

my 1s is almost higher than my 2s now so i think im good on that but ty ill use those

[signal lintel]

Hold boost after jumping off wall

[ocean anchor]

Hey guys I’m hard stuck champ 1 any tips on how to advance up

[signal lintel]

@ocean anchor here's some ideas

[placid urchin]

im fucking shit does anyone wanna 1v1 me and help me lmfao

chill vibes

[verbal marlin]

But I doubt you've played much. If you were playing consistently for a month you should be in gold imo

[uneven forum]

Not the worst in the world it was about 4 months in till I was gold and then a little over 3 years before hitting gc

And if u ever feel bad remember that everyone progresses at their own pace, just have fun with it and put the time in and the ranks will come with the experience and knowledge you gain

[quasi condor]

can i use workshop map on xbox

[tepid trail]

Any tips on improving general mechanical consistency? GC1 rn but my skill level is very inconsistent, sometimes I'm absolutely clipping on people and other times I can't outspeed anyone

[tepid trail]

Aside from playing 1s, working on that

[charred oak]

guys i've been c1 for entire last season and peaked c1 div 4 in double que
think i can hit c2 in solo que this season?

[mortal quail]

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to, just rewatch your replays as you lose, could help with it

[uneven forum]

And if ur especially having trouble with it, watch from the opponent's POV, sometimes a different perspective is all u need

[sonic pendant]

can anyone coach me to get better im dimond 2

[chilly kindle]

im so sad im champ 1 in 2v2 but diamond 1 in 3v3 and im hard stuck whatever i do its not working tried to do proper rotation but nill what else can i do?

how to get better at 1s

[desert widget]

is there a top 100 demo leaderboard?

[spiral folio]

I am hardstuck diamond 3/champ 1, I played in my friends high c2 lobby and I thrived, i carried him, what should I do?

And I rarely say my teamates hole me back but this time I actually think they do

and im happy to show replays or whatever

[tired crow]

well what rank do you think you'd be if your teammates carried their weight more?

bc its pretty common that someone overestimates their average gameplay thinking it's ranks higher than it actually is

[spiral folio]

That makes since, Id say chap 2 at least

nah champ 1

[crystal cliff]

complaining abt tm8s is ur problem

[solar beacon]

can anyone coach or help me

[silent bramble]

you thought i was feeling you?

[crystal cliff]

i can coach people in about 4 hours from now

[lusty galleon]

your teammates WHAT you back

[crystal cliff]

hole 🗿

[finite frigate]

How did you carry him? Having more points? goals? They don’t matter they are just numbers. Biggest issue with people who complain like this is that they are not consistent. I can almost guarantee if you continued to play high C2 or low C3 lobbies you’ll eventually start getting your ass kicked. No offense meant, biggest thing is consistency.

Go plays 1’s and you’ll quickly realize how many mistakes you actually make in your decision making and how overestimated your skills are if you only blame your teammates.

[crystal cliff]

DM Me For Coaching

[tired crow]

^

[cobalt quartz]

@crystal cliff look at dms pls

[lusty galleon]

📠

1s is the best place to test your actual skill

only thing it doesnt test is teamplay

also if you really think your teammates are weighing you down (i doubt it) wouldn't you want to be playing 1s anyway?

[lusty galleon]

what do you think your weaknesses are?

[onyx nexus]

lfg has just disappeared

[limber creek]

Why can no one in this channel spell properly..

If you can’t spell you probably aren’t hitting GC. That is my coaching tip for the day.

[grim crescent]

.

[vernal reef]

I suggest for someone with air roll right use squishy muffins tutorial helped me alot

And I got better at controlling the ball for a air dribble

[quasi condor]

someone coach me pls plat 1

[jaunty sphinx]

Sure

Xbox?

[grim crescent]

No pc

[vernal reef]

How do I turn right while using air roll right?

Nvm

I found it out

[sturdy forge]

Is air roll right better than left

[worn sonnet]

no

[crystal cliff]

u arent even gc lol

anyone want coaching

[vernal reef]

We prefer different things

I like air roll right because I'm comfortable with it

[worn sonnet]

yea

[urban remnant]

Me

What rank you

[vernal reef]

Bro how do I turn right

With Air roll right

In the air

[summer turtle]

hey

Dm me if you need some help 🤙

[crystal cliff]

dm me

[vernal reef]

Hey bro are you using air roll right?

Or left

Because I'm having trouble trying to turn right on air roll rigt

[crystal cliff]

why are you turning in the air

i use both directions

[vernal reef]

bro

Air dribbling 💀

@crystal cliff

[dusky fiber]

for air dribble its usually not needed to spin crazy, just do a basic turn in the beginn and do a normal air dribble

[crystal cliff]

idk why ur doing such sharp turns

[vernal reef]

Well it's hard to control the ball

So I'm using air roll

[crystal cliff]

then ur not ready to air dribble

keep practicing car control

[dusky fiber]

its usually harder with air roll then without, as u need to focus on more things then

[vernal reef]

I am

[crystal cliff]

you obv arent

if you were doing everything right you wouldnt need help

[vernal reef]

I can carry the ball to the net somtimes like a 3-5 touch I think

[crystal cliff]

what rank are you

[vernal reef]

Uhhmm

I kinda don't wanna say

[urban remnant]

..

Its not that deep

[vernal reef]

Silver 😔

[urban remnant]

Unless u gold and tryna sir dribble

[urban remnant]

WOAH

[dusky fiber]

usually the most important thing is the set up

[urban remnant]

Air dribbling in silver is crazy

[vernal reef]

I can ground dribble and control the ball quite well

[dusky fiber]

if u wanan improve your rank, focusing on that is useless

[urban remnant]

Unless you wanna be a freestyler

[vernal reef]

I'm just practicing for higher ranks

[crystal cliff]

focus on just hitting the ball

you cant skip levels

[dusky fiber]

not needed, u dont even need air dribbles up to like high dia i would say

[crystal cliff]

thats like a bronze trying to be a ssl

[urban remnant]

Dont practice complex things until u get to@maybe high plat or diamond

[vernal reef]

ok

[urban remnant]

Well…

[dusky fiber]

just practise powershots on targer, this alone for offense shouzld work if u get better there

[urban remnant]

Just work on power shots and open nets thats abt it to get out of silver

[vernal reef]

ok

[vernal reef]

I have never been able to get out of silver for about

3-4 years

[crystal cliff]

boost management and 50s are important too

[vernal reef]

Back when I still had a ps4

[crystal cliff]

thats wild ngl

[vernal reef]

And now I have a Nintendo

[dusky fiber]

in silver?

[crystal cliff]

for every rank

[dusky fiber]

yh but in silver just not chasing and powershots should do it tbh lol

[crystal cliff]

if you have no boost and cant win ur 50s ur not winning at all

its literally the basics

[vernal reef]

I somtimes peak then fall down the rank

[dusky fiber]

but do u think there are so many 50s in silver? i dont think so as everyone has there own speed and usually u dont get in these situations a lot, the higher u get the more important that gets

[urban remnant]

Damn

Your hard stuck hard stuck

[vernal reef]

Yes

only in ones

I have a teammate for 2s

[urban remnant]

I was stuck in silver for couple of weeks then i got hard stuck@in gold for a while

Then when i got to plst id where i sm dtuck stuck

[vernal reef]

I real want to get champ 😔

[dusky fiber]

was an answer to another "question"

[dusky fiber]

focus on gold first i guess dont skip steps..

[urban remnant]

I peak d1 but get stuck in high plat

[dusky fiber]

u got this mate

[urban remnant]

Its agrivating but i blame my tm8d mostly

[urban remnant]

😭

[dusky fiber]

thats a big issue then i can tell u xD

[vernal reef]

I'll do that fr

[crystal cliff]

ur name xD

[vernal reef]

ight I'm gonna lock in this time

IM REACH GOLD

[dusky fiber]

yh, focus on whats good learning in specific ranks, no point in learning mechs for higher ranks if u dont have the basics for it

[urban remnant]

I try but everyone in plst 2 plat 3 isnt exactly the greatest

Im not saying I wanna get carried i just want some1 who csn plsy decent consistent ly

Golds are the worst species on earth

[crystal cliff]

yes

[urban remnant]

Thstd whst i mean

Some ppl font deserve to be in ranks they are lile champ and dismond imo

[crystal cliff]

depends what you want

[vernal reef]

Ip

My duo is online I guess I play 2s

bye 👋

[urban remnant]

Like i play with my friend who is c2 and i was in d1 at the time and i was dumping on d2s n d3s but when it comes to plats there so much more unexpected

[crystal cliff]

no

[urban remnant]

😂

Damn

[crystal cliff]

say bye to that on dec 5th

[urban remnant]

Its been confirmed

[warm coral]

Any tips for a hard stuck d3 lol

[dusky fiber]

Looking at yourself and see what u can improve, dont play too risky (no overcomitting in corners, dont always fully challenge,..), try rotating more around the small pads this makes u stay more in rotation, try look more around this makes decision making easier (if u see your mate is back u challenge,etc.), play more 1s to improve individually

[jaunty slate]

Question the use of slang the word mate specifically

[warm coral]

Ones is wank lol I’m far better in twos than I am there. I basically do most of this but between shit team mates and completely whiffing that’s where I am lol

[jaunty slate]

Wat rank r u in 1s

[dusky fiber]

what?

[warm coral]

Played it just to get the 10 matches done. Won 7/10 games and got fuckin plat lol

[jaunty slate]

Im just asking y use the word mate i wanna know if u live in australia

[warm coral]

Then I left it there cuz I hate ones

[jaunty slate]

Really i played 1s on my acc won 6/10 and got d3

[dusky fiber]

yh 1s is good to improve in many things individually tho, u will get in those 1v1 scenarious also in 2s so its good to know what to do then, also for many other things

[dusky fiber]

ahh, nope i dont live there and not from there

[jaunty slate]

Cool

[cyan sage]

Wth I played 10 won 7/10 and got gc1

[dusky fiber]

always depends on the previous rank

[jaunty slate]

Atm im struggling at c1 cause in oce tm8 are so inconsistent

Majority of the players are smurfs or have been carried

[dusky fiber]

if u know that play less risky and be more careful, if someone just blames mates for this u cant rlly do anything and wont get higher, if someone tries to deal with it and suit there playstyle a bit it makes it easier and u might also win some of those games, but yh ik it can be a pain

[jaunty slate]

Ye nah ik i play to my tm8 so there are normally no problems its just ill get a player on an alt acc or wont care about there rank and do whatever or i vs gc's or i have have a d2 on my team bevauee they have been carrier 1/3 games i get a good match up where its 2 c1 against 2 c1s

[warm coral]

Wtf

[jaunty slate]

Oce is not the best region its prone to many cheaters or sweats with majority of its games

[dusky fiber]

u have to think this also happens to other people, usually if u are better then the rank u are in u will get higher, maybe not in an instant but over time, if not and this is rlly the issue try to find ways dealing with it, taking it as an excuse can make u hardstuck

[jaunty slate]

Ye i was just about to say is the only thing i can do is get better, and im not oblivious to say that oce is the only region with smurfs its more that its a smaller region with a more specific player base so its alot more prone to gamer issues

[dusky fiber]

yh i get what u mean

[worthy lava]

Guys is there any way to be more consistent

Like i feel my skill ceiling is going higher

But the my floor is buried underground

[jaunty slate]

I think the fastest way i can rank up is play with alot better player but thats pretty much getting carried i dont want get carried i want to improve but i dont have friend nor any connection on this game

[worthy lava]

Im c1-c2

[jaunty slate]

Practice

[worthy lava]

😭

Hopeless

[modest turret]

Im plat 3 and old d3 @worthy lava You are good

[jaunty slate]

Sit in training and practice it is whatever ur inconsistent with then play ranked with that main inconsistency in mind and apply it, while underpreassure u will improve alot faster

[worthy lava]

Issue is i have high hours

[cyan sage]

Just don't go for the ball

[worthy lava]

Its not like im playing 5 hours a week

[jaunty slate]

No

[worthy lava]

Im on 50 past 2 minimum since like 3 months

[cyan sage]

It's so underatted

[jaunty slate]

I play 8 hours a day atleast lol

[modest turret]

Come play with me

[worthy lava]

I should push myself harder in freeplay

[jaunty slate]

The best players in the world a ball chasers

[cyan sage]

Are they?

[worthy lava]

They are not

[spare smelt]

^

[worthy lava]

They are just faster than u by miles u think they ballchasing

[spare smelt]

^

[worthy lava]

Like i play with someone who is really good at the game

When we play i feel he is ballchasing

When i ask him he says thats just how he usually

Plays

[jaunty slate]

Yes they analyse the situation and determine if its better to hit the ball or not hit the ball is there tm8 up field or back will they get a good touch arr they being pushed do they have enough boost

[heavy ridge]

"really good" is already subjective

[worthy lava]

Ssl

[cyan sage]

U just described not ballchasing

[jaunty slate]

No

[heavy ridge]

when higher ranked ppl play in lower ranks they do actually ball chase bcs everyone else is so slow

[cyan sage]

Ballchasing would mean not analysing the situation and just going for the ball lol

[worthy lava]

Playing fast not same as ballchasing

[jaunty slate]

Not ball chasing is not even trying to analyse the play and just sitting back when there is an obvious chance to score

[worthy lava]

Its not ball chasing then its just their normal pace

[spare smelt]

How did this go from talking about getting better to an argument about ball chasing

[jaunty slate]

No 8f u dont ball chase u cant increase ur pace

[cyan sage]

I think ur confused my friend

[worthy lava]

Playing fast means fast decisions

Not boosting alot

[spare smelt]

^

[worthy lava]

Like watch some zen replays

[heavy ridge]

the literal lobby is not the same pace. if i play with my diamond friends i cut rotations so much bcs im literarlly jusy faster. that is ball chasing but just bcs my mate is slow and the opponent are asw

[spare smelt]

Everyone is technically just as fast as everyone else

[worthy lava]

Ur right

[jaunty slate]

There is obvious ball chaser who just drive toward the ball 27 but we cant count that as ball chasing morw of just being absolutw trash at the game

[heavy ridge]

its not how i normally play bcs normally i have a team mate that goes before i ever could again, but if my mate is taking 1000 years then yea im cutting in front

[spare smelt]

The question is

[cyan sage]

There is only one kind of ball chasing and that is that

[worthy lava]

I meant ur normal pace

[heavy ridge]

fairs mb

[spare smelt]

What’s worse, ball chaser or pseudo perma goalie

[jaunty slate]

No wqtch plats and silver and even diamonds play they majority of the time ball chase but in champs its less of that and actually applying your mechanics as effeciently as possible

[heavy ridge]

neither are bad tbh, in one case i ball chase and the other i just let them do their thing

[cyan sage]

When was the last time u slept?

Its currently 12:17am saturday

[cyan sage]

I think you need a nap

[spare smelt]

Higher than c1 champs, c1 is just a clusterfuck of carried diamonds and washed champs

[jaunty slate]

Ye pretty much but not so much in oce i didnt take into account that the whole rl community isnt just oce

[spare smelt]

Ah yeah bet it’s a bit different over there

[jaunty slate]

Id rather be in the us or eu id probably be c2 in 2s maybe c1 in 1s

[cyan sage]

I'd rather be oce

[spare smelt]

Super toxic

Super super toxic

[jaunty slate]

The games in those regions are so much more consistent im not trying to be toxic its just oce is full of smurfs or carried players

[spare smelt]

NA is a hellhole, half your ranked tm8s will throw if you screw up 1 time

[jaunty slate]

Id beqble to play with tm8 and oppenents the same skill level ae me

[jaunty slate]

Its worse here oce is easily the most toxic region on any game

[spare smelt]

Tbh I’ve only had good encounters with oce, but I can imagine that there is a “dark” side to that

[cyan sage]

Eu is definitely the most toxic region 🙄

[spare smelt]

Half of you can’t even understand eachother

[cyan sage]

Usually it is just a bunch of French people spamming

[spare smelt]

….I guess it is hard to misinterpret “Fuck you”

[jaunty slate]

Really thats somthing 8 havnt heard maybe its just rocket league but i do play other games besides rocket leauge and ill admit tm8 dont throw as many matches but thats only considering good matvh ups for example id get a player who is on an alt accout amd will difintely throw because it wont affect their rank and not only that but 2/3 of rl oce is smurfs and carrird players so like i said earlier 1/3 matches is good match up and then i have to hope my tm8 isnt toxic which they are 1/2 and then after that i have to try and win

[spare smelt]

You have a point, I looked up most toxic regions and a couple LOL websites popped up saying either EU or NA

[jaunty slate]

But as i was going to say in other games its way worse oce player will try to find any method of entertaining themselves wether that be smurfing greifing cheating or if ur lucky they actually try to have good time amd maube win in watever game they might be playing, i play console rust and its terrible currently the devs dont care for the region amd majority of players pay $300 for a zen to cheat

[spare smelt]

So for me I have alts but they are all the same rank or higher as my main, so I play ranked on my alts a lot to get the experience but not have the pressure of winning the game, then when I go to my main and play ranked I usually go on a little win streak

[jaunty slate]

Well ofc the websites u look up will say those regions becauee those regions have the biggest player base

[spare smelt]

No the Chinese and Indian servers would have the biggest playerbases

[cyan sage]

France is definitely the most toxic country 😭

[jaunty slate]

Really i dont see much media content with those regions

[spare smelt]

We don’t see it because it doesn’t get pushed to us

[cyan sage]

Oce is definitely the most chill region

[spare smelt]

More than half the population of the world lives in those two countries

[jaunty slate]

Exactly u dont see what dosent involve you oce has small player base compared to the rest on any game

[jaunty slate]

I have never heard of that

[spare smelt]

I would think smaller == less toxic

[jaunty slate]

Its the opposite

[cyan sage]

Not really

[spare smelt]

Well I mean most small game communities are nice

And then they get big and toxic

Like rust

Small community wasn’t that bad, got big every other word coming out of someone’s mouth is a slur

[jaunty slate]

I mean oce isnt a small player base region but its way smaller then the rest

[jaunty slate]

Im trying to think of a word to help explain my point

[cyan sage]

The larger the region the more toxic it will be overall because more players. But size doesn't have an affect on how toxic those people are really

[jaunty slate]

When you do an experiment or somthing like that if you have a small amount of results then specific features will be alot more common but if you have a large amount of result you will have less unique features, i dont really know how else to explain it

[cyan sage]

Ig u could argue people behave more irrationally in larger groups tho

Inflate the baloons

Do you win every game

[jaunty slate]

But in a larger player base the expected player is more common and the unique players are less but in a smaller player base the unique player are alot more common

Become ssl or gc in 1s then carrt everyone

[cyan sage]

That also means the expected players are more common so it doesn't really matter

[jaunty slate]

Wdym

[jaunty slate]

I dont what that statement has to do with ur or my point

[cyan sage]

If u have a small community ur going to run into the nice people alot more aswell

[jaunty slate]

No

[jaunty slate]

Just play oce and find out yourslef it seems i cant explain my point in enough detail for you to understand

[cyan sage]

I've played oce and it's completely fine

[jaunty slate]

Wat rank r u

[cyan sage]

Gc3

[jaunty slate]

Well that would explain it

[cyan sage]

True the community is even smaller

So even less toxic

[jaunty slate]

How long were your qs

[cyan sage]

Probably like 15 mins

[jaunty slate]

Ye id imagine, but i dont agree with ur point

I told u before play 1s until your gc or ssl

Im currently d3 in 1s and c1 in 2s so im abit better then majority of the players i vs but i still have trouble carrying or versing smurfs

Its really hard but its not needed i was just saying get good enough to the point where u can 3v1 c3s

Cause i know most games feel like a 3v1

Wat rank r u in 1s id imagine atleast d3 or c1 considering c3 in 2s

[cyan sage]

C3 is pretty chill if u just go for the ball less

[spare smelt]

I suck at 1s but am c1 in 2s and 3s

Need to play more of it, but I get frustrated with myself

[jaunty slate]

Ye i need tm8s to play 3s with im d2 in 3s c1 in 2s and d3 in 1s i vs gc title from last season amd stuff i beat one probably a washed gc but then the next one is like an actual gc in 1s

[spare smelt]

I solo queue, so I understand the sentiment

[jaunty slate]

Same i have friends but they are ass

[jaunty slate]

One is gold the other is low diamond but they dont have time to play

[spare smelt]

I’ve been playing with my little brother trying to turn him into the next zen😂, there is no hope

[jaunty slate]

Lol must be fun tho

[spare smelt]

It is, If a little frustrating at times, he has zero game sense

[jaunty slate]

Just keep playing with him he will be better then u if he like the game

[worldly zephyr]

I am looking for someone in APAC region higher than champ for gameplay review, I've been suckin' ass lately.

[rough cape]

Can anybody teach me how to not suck at air dribbles? I’m plat and have been for a year, learning how to air dribble the whole time. But still I can only hit one 1/15 times

[tired crow]

send me a clip in dms of you trying to air dribble 🤝

[fringe trout]

what can I do when my teammates dont use their brain???

[jaunty slate]

Become ssl

[fringe trout]

kinda hard, 2v1ing a gc1 lobby

[cyan sage]

Play goalie just sit there in net

[jaunty slate]

Im not gc 1 but i can some what 1v2 c1s tho im c1 i still need a tm8 here and there but i can do the rest just play 1s i dont know many d3 1s in c1 2s

[fringe trout]

mh, doenst really work out when my tm8 waits for the opponent to FCKING SHOOT ON OUR NET

[jaunty slate]

I agree

[fringe trout]

Maybe rocket league should add some kind of IQ ranking, have this IQ to play with this person

[jaunty slate]

How can u play so passive in gc3

[jaunty slate]

Lol just get good and carry ig

[jaunty slate]

R u 1v3 thats when its hard

[fringe trout]

doesnt work out when teammate decides to throw and play against you

[jaunty slate]

Ye just what i said lol

[cyan sage]

Free rank

[jaunty slate]

Huh?

[fringe trout]

I fucking hate rocket league

[fringe trout]

ah yes

[cyan sage]

That's when u save it

[fringe trout]

ok but we dont get goals when my tm8 isnt good in anything but eating all boost

so we will lose even if I play goalie

[jaunty slate]

Quit it probably would be good for u tho i wouldnt know cus i dont have a life nor do i intend on getting one

Free rank?

[fringe trout]

I want to become SSL, but I dont play against other players, I literally play against psyonix ranking system

[jaunty slate]

Whats free rank?

[cyan sage]

Really easy

[finite torrent]

U won’t get that until you get some hours

[fringe trout]

I have 3000, atleast 500 of which are in the same goddamn rank, GC1

[cyan sage]

All u do in this game is catch the ball flick it at the net and spam this until u win

[jaunty slate]

How many hours do yall have i got 1.2

[cyan sage]

3k

[jaunty slate]

So i have 2.8 to gain 6 ranks in 2s to catch up or be a skilled plawr

[finite torrent]

What are your weak points then? Are you not able to play faster, do you have bad ground control?

[fringe trout]

My weakpoints are that I cant carry my teammate

[jaunty slate]

Play 1s its the only solution

No

[fringe trout]

no but seriously, currently I think im playing well, ofc I do some mistakes where I dont expect something, but its not like I always lose cuz I cant dribble or cuz I cant aerial or anythinjg

[finite torrent]

What’s your 1v1 rank

[fringe trout]

I think I lose because my teammates literally decide to throw the game 1-3, 3 min left, and decide to fucking wiat for the opponent to score in order to blame me

[fringe trout]

champ 1

[finite torrent]

That’s why man

[fringe trout]

most gc1's are in diamond 3

[jaunty slate]

I agree i vs many gc's

[fringe trout]

and then gc1 and upwards in 1v1 is like 2v2 in ssl

[finite torrent]

You won’t progress without a solid 1v1 foundation though

[jaunty slate]

But u probably could go to c2 or c3 in 1s im c1 in 2s and d3 in 1s

[fringe trout]

so I am slightly better then most gc's in 1v1 cuz of my rank

[fringe trout]

I could, I hate 1v1 cuz it makes me mad

[finite torrent]

You can’t get tilted in 1v1 you just have to play like you don’t care about ranks

[jaunty slate]

Just dont play so seriously it helps me so much

[jaunty slate]

Exactly like i said lol

[jaunty slate]

Wat r ur ranks

[finite torrent]

I just got back into RL and I was the GC with horrible 1v1 rank back in season 3 and now I am basically exclusively playing 1v1 and my other ranks are shooting way up too

[worthy lava]

1.6

[jaunty slate]

Ye getting to d3 was my break through for me to be able to solo q 2s

[spare smelt]

Y’all make me want to play 1v1 more

But I am already dreading it

[worthy lava]

Whats ur 1v1 rank

[jaunty slate]

U should only way to get better

[finite torrent]

I used to hate it but it is improving me faster than anything

[cyan sage]

1s is stinky don't play

[finite torrent]

Most low hour SSL players are 1v1 mains

[jaunty slate]

Im startinh to question ur claim about being gc3

[spare smelt]

Idk, probably d1? I haven’t played it much at all,

[fringe trout]

I agree

[idle cloak]

What mechanics are necessary in Low Diamond

[fringe trout]

I hate it but I know its the only thing that helps me

I dont say anything against htat, I just hate 1v1
