i lost 70 mmr in 2 days is it time for a break or what is it and how do i get back up
bro... thats literally me
the fact that im on a lose streak doesnt help with my mood so im playing bad
if you're not in a good mood take a break play some training with music and practice
Gamesense training please
play the game prolly
That is definitely helpful
he ain't wrong.
but trying to spot your own mistakes in replays of your losses is also good
Saving your replay then rewatch it
i just got into gold what should i focus on
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.
thanks,any tips with rotations? the rest i believe i can practice on 1s
That’s normal but if ur playing terrible then don’t queue comp play casual or just don’t play at all that’s what I do
lf for someone to help me get unwashed
1s
you cant end up on a loss.
continue.
i had a 7 L streak yesterday cuz of this 😌
continue.
yea i went on a 9 win streak after lel
Wooo stats at work
Can anyone help me figure out how to double rest I can rest fine but can't double yet tryna be a fs
Ok it's prob my setup
Ik*
fr?
yeha
Hey can some one help me I'm looking for a coach to help me improve on ps5 im willing to pay
What rank are you
Hey can someone help me to get better at learning air roll left
cancer game
D1
Hey can some one help me I'm looking for a coach to help me improve on ps5 im willing to pay
Go touch grass there’s my tip
Dm
can some1 coach me a bit? im fresh into c1
cuz you always do. You need to do a bit of an adjustment at the end or at the start
dm me if you want more clarification about that
dm
idk man. why you still playin tho
sure
when u jump turn right ever so slightly then do the flip u will go straight
make sure you wait for the car to fall to the ground when the shot starts. takes less than a second but you have to wait
people dont play games to be competitive
if you think that then you should quit video games and take a long look at yourself and what your gonna do with your life
beamer this guy aint shi
he was trynna 1v1 me for a hunnid but wouldn't give me his epic
if you're doing the musty speedflip pack, the shot starting near mid boost starts slightly in the air
then something else is wrong lol, if you show me i can help
plenty of people enjoy competition and trying to improve at a game, like normal sports, nothing wrong with that. going into a gameplay tips channel on discord to flex your rank and tell people to quit is a yikes tho
the thing is he prolly doesn't have that rank man
why are you getting mad at me and saying im flexing my rank?
im a gold 3/plat 1 and im looking to improve, i could work on anything you want to try and help with, open to ideas! also im on kbm, a ones main and I can mic up pretty often
oh nvm i didnt see the end pasrt
the easiest things to work on first would be learning back post rotation and backboard defense and shadow defense then just learn how to speedflip and you could easily rank up to diamond
you could do the first 3 by trainingpacks
you could do the end by a yt tutorial
Ey, does anyone know a way to train your mechanics? They say you cant teach an old dog new tricks. But i wish i could!
just sit in training and practice with the ball like airdribbles and stuff to get good car controkl
youtube tutorials are gold
the channels that helped me learn the most were wayton pilkin and spookluke if you're curious
I've literally played the game for 6/7 years, and still cant airdribble. And i've also looked at youtube in the past. I might just be slow in my head or just not as mechanical as the kids today
Pilkin is a new one to me. I've watched both Wayton and Spookluke, but might try Pilkin
kids learn way quicker but you can still do it at any age
I've got both directional and "free" airroll set
wayton pilkin is 1 channel
lol
Oh.. lol
I ment that i got "both" Like, one directional and then free airroll
Beamer. Can you coach me a bit on 1 thing? i'll dm
I can see how my answer was confusing. My bad! Should've phrased it differently
sure just dm me im in a ranked rn tho so i mite be slow to respond
@shrewd quest i can teach you air dribbles, or at least how to learn them, in a private match if you want. i usually don't voice chat. dm if you want
im a gold 3/plat 1 and im looking to improve with a coach, i could work on anything you want to try and help with, open to ideas! also im on kbm, a ones main and I can mic up pretty often
im a gold 3/plat 1 and im looking to improve** with a coach**, i could work on anything you want to try and help with, open to ideas! also im on kbm, a ones main and I can mic up pretty often
okay so if ur saying "i could work on anything you want to try and help with"
have u tried practicing more?
practicing what?
everything
i can speedflip ive been working on dribbles air and ground, wave and walldashes
okay?
practice them all more
practice ur shooting... dribbling... recoveries.. everything
yes
u have to practice ... to get better..
no way
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.
a coach will say the exact same thing but just word it differently
and also u learned speedflips why?
thanks for the help man!
rip
Tips on being gold?
lookin to play 2s i dnot care what rank just lookin to chill in some casuel
any tips for diamond im kinda hard stuck but i play better than most diamond players but my teammates always drag me down
i know
any tips for plat 1-2 tips?
i can air dribble and have good game iq
Just need to find a teamate to play with
Well, I have been playing since 2016 just never took the game serious. I have good rotations and I can air dribble in game
The thing with that is my teamates are always cocky and don't give comms
some people do
how am I supposed to improve then
I don't understand what I need to work on right now
I'm gold 3 trying to rank up any tips
I was plat 2 weeks ago
but was not havinga good day so i went back to gold
i need a coach, dm me if interested
ok
wanna play
How do u dm
im plat 2 and im switching to controller. Can someone give me some keybind tips?
check out liquipedia "List of player control settings" page
but people tell me not to copy down pro keybinds
don't just copy one, look through the list on your computer to see what some common layouts are
also to go forward i use the up button on my controller
i suggest binding both directional air roll
is that normal?
you should use a trigger for that
is right dar on left joystick bad
dude i’ve looked at the message in off topic like 20 times today
like what?
here dms so i can show u my current keybinds
can someone guide me through keybinds in dms
Lmao
is it?
i dont have em both bound
yea thats weird
ur pfp
no im saying having them both binded is weird
and bro thats my uncle dont be mean
idk ive been using it for yearts
ur unlce looks awfully ai generated
is it possible to do the mawkzy flick while boosting through the whole process or do you need to stop on some points
can somebody try my keybinds on controller and tell me if they are okay?
how the hell does that even make sense
no one is going to like it because its not there controll they are already comfortable with if you like it use it
ok
any tips for ground pinch?
you should air dribble it down to the ground
very hard since im silver
3
division iv
bout to hit gold
okay then practice doing it..?
cmon man
i kinda good at air roll
but not that much
honestly man what do you want ground pinches for in silver 3
it looks fun?
true
see?
so just practice from youtube tutorials
if you're mechanical enough to do it
after a bit of practice you'll be ready to do it any time
It’s not an important mechanic
Practice important mechs
Trying to break into diamond from low/mid-platinum and I'm struggling to speed-flip. Another than the fact that I need to speed flip, any tips of offensive/defensive midfield awareness/defensive tips, how to counter-attack quickly and effectively and how to defend effectively from the halfway line in a 2s game if on constant attack
rotate back post
don't overcommit when you know you gon get beat to the ball
learn shadow defence
how the heck do I use the grab mechanic in knockout
I cant score against a deffender (i play 1s) what should i practice (diamond2)
shot placement
but also take your time with the ball
I said against a deffender
i know
Like he is shadowing me
yup
I dont think thats a great tip
does that stop you from hitting it where he can't reach it
I mean i cant shoot it to left top in the midfield him shadowing me
start carrying
then play patient
let em shoot their shot. and you will get more time for yourself with the ball as well
Im lucky not gettin them then
or start playing with friends ( optional )
i am currently gold 1 div 1 on 1s and gold 2 div 1 on 2s
I struggle with the following:
Doing anything while the ball is on the air and have to wait for it to come down to double jump radius in order for me to play the game again
Defending high shots
Often gets boost starved
Take small pads
You dont need to jump to aerials in gold
the second one is true in silver
learn boost management, practice aerials if you're so scared of the ball , do defence training packs
in gold people know how to aerial
they do thoe 💀
any map or pack or whatever to practice aerials?
or just try them out in casual 1s and 2s
You can try some easy aerial packs
ur gold 1, you struggle with literally everything
i only said the ones that i dont know how to get better at
yeh but he said specific problems
mbmb
i obviously also do dumb flips miss open nets and all the low rank things
ight so u know how to get better at shooting?
and hitting the ball and stuff
yea i do some training packs for those and i also just try to play a lot of 1s
Youll get used to hitting ball and people still do miss out on those open nets in champ
ight well u get better at everything else by doing the same thing playing + training
dude when the ball is on the air especially on awkward locations i literally enter npc mode for like 5 seconds
yea.. u still get better at it the same way tho
practice is all u gotta do with everything
practice positioning
and you'd see an improvement immediatly
how
I'm going to give a scenario and one tell me if it's a good tactic
So I'm being counter-attacked in a 1v1 by my opponent and let's say they are attacking down the left side of my defensive half by ground. I then boost through all the '100 boost pads' (those pads that fills your boost completely) to slow them down and hopefully dispossess my opponent which I can then counterattack back towards an open net
Playing the game!
as a person who doe sthat it will work in lower ranks
Kk
what rank is this
and also im so confused
Let's say between Gold 2 and Plat 1
How so
i mean that scenario happens an awful lot
idk what u asking
what u should do? or what? and if ur asking that we need more context
I just thought it was something worth being addressed
What I should do
umm yeah need more context
is gold 2 to plat1 so they probs cant flick
so that rules that out
where are they? and where are u? like what distance etc
Do I like cut them out at the corner or?
it depends on where they aer on the field
yeah but that tells me nothing about where they are on the field..
they could be almost at ur net, mid field
literally anywhere
I said the left side of my defensive half
Let's say like my the time I reach the mid 100 boost, they are quite close behind me with let's say a '4-octane-distance' between me and the opponent
So the distance between the half way line and my goal
ight well ill just give u some plays u can do
cause i couldn't be arsed getting all the info needed for me to give u exactly what to do
So do I like cut them out at the corner or?
U can move ur car to the left or right of his car ideally stay to the left because if u go right he will be directly behind u if he starts going towards ur net
then u can cut him off whenever u want
ideally once u get the mid boost
but challenging him there all depends on his momentum/where the ball is/ where the ball is in relation to u/ where the ball is in relation to him/ what happens if u do a good challenge/ what happens if u do a bad challenge
thats like the most risky kinda
then u can also go to the left of his car
and defend ur goal the entire time
hes gold so hell probs drive into the corner
like a dumby bc hes scared of people
there u can get the boost and free ball
this is the safest option
but hardest to score from
i can help 🙂 dm me
@cyan sage so I would imagine that if I am successful and now the opponent is behind me with the ball in front of me, I would have the whole of their defensive half and a bit of my own defensive half from where I successfully dispossessed them at my disposal on counter-attacking back and getting a really simple but effective goal into an open net
dont know
depends on how the 50/50 goes
but more than likely
the guy will be behind u u will be facing sideways kinda and the ball will be going in the direction of the wall that u are facing
ideally slowly
thats if u cahllenge near mid
the other scenario u dont really need to challenge at all
im going to sleep right now
maybe when i wake up if u will still be on :P
gn
gn bro
im lf coach my rank is gold 1
get more then 30 hours in the game first
how good is it for me to be champ 2 with 327 hours?
horrible
are you looking on epic or rl
ty
on rl
then yea thats pretty bad
im on ps5 it shows how much hours i have
yea if it was on epic it would be really good but on rocket league the really bad
but i freestyle i dont really play rsanked
yea freeplay dont count
i barely freeplay only to warm up
so freestyling wont change anything
yes because i play less ranked and more casuals so its longer and harder to rank up kinda
less time in ranked
thats your prob
i never said it was a prob?
k
and how rare is TW dominus?
could anyone coach me? (im plat 2 in 2v2s)
i can
what rank are you?
not this channal leave
ok calm down lol
IM so SORRY!!!
bro look at your dm's
Hey
Any tips to get into plat 1 from gold 3
I need coaching man
how get c3
same
and gc
Skill Ceiling
the game purposefully puts you against players in a higher MMR just so you improve
improve what? only you know 🤷♂️
i hit c3 already this season 3 times and lost it with 5 games each time and now i cannot get it back
I’m between gold and plat and I had a group I played with but they sorta disbanded me and I need assistance
any 1 around c1 wanna do the tourney na east need 1
💀
lmao
Buisness
close enough innit
not rescon
sure
2v2??
yeah
im new to the game how do i get better
Play the game and enjoy it. You can't really start grinding mechs and gamesense before you understand how to hit the ball. Also, make sure you enjoy the game before starting to grind it
any coach wanna dm me and help me with tips im c2-c3 rn wanting to get gc 1-2 maybe 3 ill let you know more about myself just hit me up
i 100% agree with this one
and i'm new too and starting to see some progress
USE Im a silver recently hit gold but deranked back to silver for some reason i cant stay at gold it would help if someone helped
i hate playing in these silver lobbies they are so ball hungry its like finding nemo seagulls mine mine mine mine mine
except none of them can hit the ball ever
its driving me insane
so really if u just ignore everyone u will hvae a free goal 100% of the time
never works because they always have someone playing goal
that isn't a real strategy lol, scoring on someone waiting in net is a free goal, just roll it then cut it when you get close
if they pre jump just dont hit it hard, if you can dribble which you can't in silver, just do that and it's a free goal
hes silver
he cant do any of that intentionally
How do I get better at saves I’m always panicking and using L1 which is left air Roll and I always mess up
dont use L1
.?
as in dont accidentily use l1 in general
or dont have it bound to l1
the first option is respect the second option is ehh
no dont use it in general unlesss needed, instead bount directiponal left air roll to either x or square
ew
whats ur opinion on right DAR then?
@covert cradle
Somebody gotta tell me how to turn my right stick deadzone up
Right stick deadzone or sensitivity
Deadzone
u got drift on it?
need help with chain dash kbm i get like 3 then come off wall
are you spamming it or doing it controlled
cause if you spam it its a bit harder
just do it 1 dash at a time
the important timing part is minimizing the time between jump and flip
so instead of just spamming and hoping for the best, tap it twice quicky
you can even use two fingers on your mouse to make it easier, using them in alternation
So if I just do 1 then wait I won’t fly off the wall
Is there also any specific thing I’m supposed to do with my car like point it down because I feel like it’s inconsistent and I’ll just randomly come off the wall
its very controlled
hold powerslide, i like to point slightly down but ive heard people say thats wrong
I feel like if I don’t point down it doesn’t work
are you doing it once
or spamming it
apparentlyjack has a good tutorial, which i think is much better than squishy's old one that everyone seems to use
Both
(watch me get warned for promoting or something)
stop spamming it, its useless
I used a different one because they’re controller and I’m kbm
doesnt matter
Yeah but if I’m just driving on the wall and do it once I don’t dash I just flip off no matter how fast I do it
the difficulty is in clicking twice very quickly
does 1v1 help improve your 2s gameplay?
Mmmmmm not really maybe it’ll help mechs
It can make you a smarter defender
ok, good to know. im a p3 in 2s, p2 in 1s trying to get back to diamond. do you have any tips?
anyone know how to get a plat 2s main to diamond?
well that kinda answers my question
should i learn how to do some aerial control
like control the ball in the air and like aerial shots
me 2 lol
what rank r u?
noicwe
any tips for getting to diamond?
plat2
sure
whats ur user
alr
yerr
ye i know their bad
i need to get a speed flip thing goin
okay
anything else
okay so control and kickoffs
how about aerial stuff am i fine on that for plat or should i do some training packs for that part
okay
cool cool
idk how to do flicks
should i master them
or atleast attempt to master them lol
okay
control, kickoffs, and flick
thanks btw
i can generally screw around with bouce dribbles its just that keeping the ball on me car isa poop show
fr fr
alr ima grind training packs thx
yo dude
can i have a second opinion on my speedflip
i just wanna see if its actually a speedflip or just a cool looking flip with boost
alr
thx
absolutely
idk why some people are saying "not really"
if you are good at 1s, you are good at the game
the only exception is team play, obviously
pm me it and i can tell you
if you're diagonal flipping and cancelling, its a speedflip
if you dont that forward burst of speed, its a sideflip
sideflips also usually look different because a real speedflip always swings down at least slightly
what do you practice
ok well
how are you gonna improve without practice
yea it is confusing
"just get good at everything bro"
dont waste your time. get good and shots and saves. dont practice anything else, you will be diamond very quickly
fundementals come first
hey does anyone here is using BakkesMod?
oh lmao i thought you were the guy trying to get to diamond
nevermind i fixed the issue
cause I've installed it for the first time and bakkes wasn't opening in game and all I had to to do is go to properties and make sure it runs as administrator
anyone else gc and stuck in c2/c3?
Mb me
Champ is rl hard these days
Lots of smurfs and derankers and bad tm8ts
I just got here so I'm in plat. I only play 2s with friends now because of a recent incident where I went all the way down to gold III
must suck
Yeah
honestly I just kinda defend as my cousin does all the work lmao
he's been in a lot of 2v1 situations so he's fine with it
idk how he does it tbh
but then again we're in plat lobbies while his peak rank is like diamond II or smth
im tryna find a tm8 who was gc and is also in c3 rn to get back to gc (im us west)
PS?
c3 to gc aint that hard just solo q it
i was div 3 and i solo q'd 20 games and im div 1 now its so back and forth
Are you on playstation
pc
It’s early season bruh no biggie
Than sr
I’m ssl usually and I’m like gc2 div 4 still
In early season resets its hard, but this time i didn't get any season reset
honestly i got a new job and classes starting next month, so i just want to get my rewards before i get super busy
usually gc2 and like c1 rn 💀
dang man thats rough the champ ranks are flooded with gcs rn its crazy
Also on PC?
yep
Ah well if ur tryjna rank up play if u streak then play till one loss then get off and repeat next day
So u don’t shoot ur mental
Mb thats why i cant get up
ik i just dont care about the rank tbh i just freestyle in ranked
I was almost c2 right now and now im stuck at 1120
i've already lost all my sanity playing for hours a day and ending with less mmr than i started
C1 div 3
Yea it happens usually u just regain it all next day cuz early season so messy
I went from 1670 to 1590 back to 1675 in like 2 days
i would usually queue with my friend we got gc together back in season 8, but he got busy and cant play anymore, thats why im looking for a new tm8
Yeah its hard to find one tho
yeah i was champ 1 after placements, and after 2 days im back at c3 div 3, now c3 div 1
Ah gl wit that it’s hard to find some I just solo que
problem is with the new #looking-for-group system you cant actually say u want an ex gc who is in champ rn
well if you're already in gc1-2 then solo qing is easier fs
idk why they updated it tbh
thats why im here lol the new looking for group is soooooo shit
so u just have to play with champs
remove the cuss
Nah it’s awful
I play against pros and get peak gc2s as tm8s
lmao
not on his level
I tryed to tipe it here, i got a warning and the message was deleted
It’s all relative yk cuz one game it’ll be all pros and I’m the trash can someone get stuck with
literally had to wait hours to get an actuall comm teammate
with my gc friend, i would constantly just give him the ball whether it be mid field corner etc
i dont im c1 rn HAHAHA
thats why we had that several year chemistry but now hes gone and im having trouble adjusting
idk what the old one was
nothing u could just type freely
but the one i know of is dogwater
Yeah im triing to, but hes so bad, that he never recovers it
now its a command that takes away your 1st amendment
And shoots it into a corner
#looking-for-group system needs to change fr
they should just add anothjer category after all the ones called "extra info" or something
i dont really get the point
ye that might work
crr?
Ca**y
yeah why did they remove our freedom to speak freely and replace it with a limited command that doesnt allow u to write what u want
With 2 r instead of those *
Can someone like teach me how to air dribble or atleast show me where I'm going wrong because like sometimes by luck I can air dribble like for 1-2 seconds and mess it up
watch wayton air dirbble tutorial
How do i join a group in the looking for groop room?
Or how do i know that someone joined my group?
pm them
can anyone analyze a replay and tell me everything i blunder outrageously? aside from open nets and stuff, what could've been the biggest mechanical or positional gaps, guess the rank if possible
https://ballchasing.com/replay/fbc48c20-3946-40b4-a0fe-54cd4f152707
can anyone tell me all the things i need to practice im champ
i think the first step of improvement is consistency, especially when you're on fortnite
?
Send it
Send it to #gameplay-highlights
Nope
Damn 😔
Any advice
Tried don't seem to help
Yea cus u arent doing the thing tuto says
Just copy the video without boost
I need to rank up could someone maybe coach me?
what rank
Dia 1😭😭😭
what are your problems
Idk tbh
I need some one to watch me too tell me what do to kinda or js tell me my mistakes I whiff time to time and need to improver at being more constant
Consistent*
dont over react if you whiff alot
and dont over use boost
also if you say your tmates sell
save the game watch over and see what they are doing and what you are doing
how is the opponent getting the ball in the net
What rank are u?
gold
Peak rank?
im gold
gold
And ur telling a dia what to do?
Mmmkay
but like i said dont over react and if your in a game with a tmate that you think is selling
watch the replay
anyone can coach me on the side? i'm peak d3 and every season i get worse, just someone i can get in contact with from time to time or analyze my gameplay
ok

Any advice for a Gold 1 Div 2 on switch? Jus tryna get better at the game
if you really are silver, you legit just have to play more, fix up your settings, and get used to the game
i pray for you
my best advice for playing on switch is to not play on switch and play on something else lol
Hahahahaha
tbh still similar advice. it's hard to correct your mistakes when most mistakes are prob coming from whiffs or not being able to go for a ball due to lack of mechs
o dam
can you aerial comfortably? power shots? dribble?
cuz if not you legit just gotta grind free training
ill be real
nah dont
dont worry about any of that in sliver
they are in gold
worry about youre ground game
well still any rank
ground game is important know when to chall and pass when you are able too
how long have you been playing

yeesh
when did you start really getting into the game?
like wanting to become better
o dam. and stuck in gold 3?? you ever try to push yourself to learn something new in the game?
but like ball movement
dribbling, air dribbling, defending shots that can be uncomfy, taking shots that can be uncomfy, etc
whiffs need to be fixed, which is more on hitting the ball around in free training
as for game sense, not much really needed in your rank atm. honestly you can get away with being accurate with taking shots on the ground
aight
usually i recommend everytime you start up the game in general, to take sometimes free training for a bit to get used to the game
Hello
can anyone coach me im bronze 😭 and i play a little but i want to get better. Can anyone couch me for free
if you are bronze you either play with one hand or purposely put yourself there
Can someone watch a video of my gameplay and tell me what I’m doing wrong and what I should practice
anyone teach me air roll? dm
i got gold 2 on 1 hand
so i'd say the 1st option is your under 7
(Real)
what rank
if you want to send it over to me i can review it
Alright thanks
i keep throwing games in 2s my mentality is fucked and im very much ready to uninstall the game
Simple answer, stop giving a fuck about the game. Play to improve instead to win, rank will come automatically if you improve
but i keep fuckign up my mates' mmr
im improving but my rank is going down
dont
i managed to go from gold 3 div 3 to silver 2 div 2
ur on controller rn?
yes
ok good
WHY
dm me
Im suffering in 3v3s
(Real)
In 1 session if you started another smurf, roughly how fast do you climb mmr?
How many hours do you have in game?
Cap
c3 is the new plat
I Go up 1 div every 3-4 wins
Clearly you haven't been in plat for a while
Even d2 compared to plat is evident
Lmao I'm sure they're better than grand plats
What do you do after you quit peaking/ performance go's down?
how do i get unbanned
Along those lines
Taking a break is typically best
Fair enough
But you can flip reset right
Well Atleast you’re gc lmao I’m c2
Ofc it’s the most important mechanic to help rank up
Constantly facing peaked gcs that are trying to get their rank back
i desperatley need a rl coach, pls hmu
What rank?
Felt
You don’t really need a coach. You need to change your play style
? wym ?
hey does anyone have any mechanics i need to learn im hardstuck p3?
Rotate back post
ok ill practise that
The average plat will go for the ball when they shouldn’t or otherwise have no reason to
☝️
Even the p2 knows wassup
yeah, im tryna get better 4 my esports team at school
but i feel i cant make progression
i play 10-15 hrs a day
I’ll beat a diamond easily without using any advanced mechanics
Dude. People just banging the ball around with no purpose hurt my head
More training packs less ranked?
i do pretty much only training
You just have think while you play instead of zoning out and playing on autopilot
It’s a common theme. It just means game sense > mechanics
Make a conscious effort to think through what you plan to do while you’re in a game
Hold up fr
since i started xD 😛
I have 168 with 2k games
You must be a grand plat then..
Also don’t play with the sole purpose of ranking up
But the shiny diamond rewards
my issue is i dont always whiff in moments that are crucial, also i dont play my best 95 percent of the time
close enough
The best way to rank up is going for passing plays and bump plays
I feel like you gatekeep people from diamond
No one passes efficiently below d3🤺
I do
That’s generous
I'm d3
Indeed. I only say because the d3s I've played with should be champ
I don't have an issue ranking up, my rank has been steadily going up
I lost my champ promo game 6 times and I am yet to hit it 😪
ive been the same rank for 10 seasons
I've been a diamond since season 8
Started season 2 but I left from season 5 through 7
i was diamond 3 in szn 5 then stopped playing
can anyone teach me right now im silver 1
My dad took me controller 💀
can someone coach me
I'm not clicking that bruu
if your silver, first step is to turn on ur monitor and hit the ball.
its a spongebob crying meme
"When imposter is delicious "
Just hit champ, any tips?
bruh

Win
can someone coach me please
Black bear I can coach u but I'm coaching someone else rn
ok thankyou
Silvers don’t really need coaching. You just have to keep playing the game
Just try and hit the ball consitently
Ye I agri
🗣🗣
can someone watch one of my replays and give me tips/things to work on?
I can do that
bet, ill send u a replay
@deft radish this
Blackout what ur rank rn

You stop people from getting to diamond don't you💀
Speaking of; I finally got diamond back🕺
nahh
i aint smurfing in comp (i rarely smurf :P)
usually i play with my noob friends casual and teach them the game
gz
Certain ways of improving car/bal control the best?
spend 100s of hours in freeplay practicing
im freeplay main💀 😂
only going for dribble plays in 1's
My car control while air rolling is really good when ball cam is off and flying around in free play but when I turn ball cam on/ actually play I lose control in the air. Any advice?
practice in freeplay with the ball
yo
yo
i need tips for rotation boys
im hard stuck d2
and i think my problem is rotation
I quit RL after hitting gc and I’ve just returned and all I get is gc titles in c1 bare in mind i haven’t been c1 for years and it was a rank id fly threw but it has just been harder and I don’t understand why has ranked felt harder for anyone or am I just trippin
@cyan iron welcome to the pit it's the same in c2 but more
@twilit bobcat then i'd suggest a video on rotation and actively think about it while playing the game untill it becomes natural
I'm a lower rank but personally, play off your teammates hiccups if you can. Or bring that defense game up
LF1 that could coach me for free. im diamond 2 peek champ 1
Does anybody know how to turn up right stick deadzone I can’t find it in the settings
I feel your pain
You don’t though
Oops wrong reply
i didn't understand bro, can u explain more please?
LF1 that could coach me for free. im diamond 2 peek champ 1
is hard to learn rotations in that rank because you would be the only person doing it, i suggest learning backpost rotation tho
gimme the video please
Post a replay to ballchasing
I'm trying man
backpost rotation means rotating at the back of your post on the opposite side of the ball, search on youtube
Best thing you can do to get better is just get back faster, after your attack the ball or whatever your doing after your done just go back post as fast as possible
yeah i know but i should rotate always back post or nah ?
thank u so much bro
Recovery’s and speed and the real things that separatehigh ranks
yeah
thank u so much boys
in your rank you should crush everything with that thing
Its situational but yes
back post, fast recovery's
yeah it depends
Most of the time once you get into higher ranked you’ll learn when to cut for tm8s and stuff
sometimes i am on front post, is really situational, but till champ you will do fine with just back post
i got one more question
mostly when you try to become second man as first man but your tm went for back boost 💀 i usually cut in these situations
do u guys think challenging all the time is a good thing to rank up ?
like ball chasing all the time and giving no space
Pretty much yeah I don’t really get tm8s that are bad anymore thankfully tho
i feel like sometimes it's risky
no, dont do that
No
learn fake challenges
I’m my experience it was like gc 1 but yk
and the basic of shadow defense
you want to keep possession of the ball, if you cannot keep possession you should pass to your teammate, or take it back to one of your corners, if you've broken the defense (made at least 1 person miss) then take a shot, or again pass out for your moron teammates to attempt a shot
if you miss a challenge it will be 2v1 for your teammate, assuming he's back, but in your rank will probably be open net because your tm was going for the boost in opponents corner lol
I would say play around not trusting your tm8 if your below champ
this is why you choose carefuly when to challenge
that's why it's risky
you still cant trust champ, everyone there's a washed GC who thinks they've got plans to score, and leave you on 2v1 defense
question
Like fr lmao just only go when you can score or have a high chance and otherwise play second man you’ll win more
why does my teammate have the title
Till champ
"Benchwarmer"
9 Touches
yeah, that's shadow defense, i fake in their half and i challenge in my half
it's a nice way to say that person was useless
Yeh I’m a 1s player too I feel like it mad me so much better
I KNOW THAT
1s is suppost to make you good at 2s lol
in s1 i was d2 in 1s and hardstuck silver in 2s and 3s
Can just outplay every 2s player now
Back before f2p I hit gc the first time and then got banned a quit
my bad i was bronze 3 in 2s 💀
it is, but for 3s, 1s helps just like 5%
It’s crazy how much the game changed cause when I come back directional air roll was a thing and wave dashes were more prominent so much stuff to learn
if you play all of the regular modes
pfft I was wave dashing before it was cool
hell I was wave dashing before most everyone is this discord even joined e.e
Oh wait my names dif one sec
now try to chain dash with the corner of the car
can chain dash too
Where’s my epic show
now learn horse dash
wall dash, ceiling dashing, and my favorite waste of time, net dashing...
Ion know like what my epic name is
now learn to do chain dash to the wall, then you do wall dash and then do a ceiling dash, all while dribbling the ball
I can do all the dashing
then do that
I ain’t got a launcher g lmao
I've wave dashed onto people, the ball in mid air all kinds
Naturally your teammate is gonna mess up every now and then, what I mean by that is get ready to go for a shot right then or rotate back if you're too far forward. Strong defense is a strong offense
what does benchwarmer mean
Had this acc for so long with the same name the name is LOL
gold 1
that your useless
You're useless
i gotta go sleep :/
ye but whats the reason of getting it
what rank are u ?
not touch the ball very much the entire game
are you ballchasing?
i dont think i am?
i usually stay mid and wait for the opponent to fuck up
do you collide with your teammate often on every other play?
ariiii
hi
no i keep my distance from him
cause ik we finna bump each other
Stop the cap
no offense but i dont believe anyone saying that and is gold
I regret not playing for a while and now im a low rank and when I play with randoms they act like they don’t have 5 braincells
you can have good gamesense and still be bad enough to be stuck in gold... probably just need more hours and learning how to have basic control
im gold cause
my rotations are shit
i miss way too many open nets
opposed to many other players i play too passively (i rarely go for the ball)
my defense is shit
usually when someone doesnt touch the ball often and the game is lost, the other guy is at fault for ballchasing and not scoring
we won 3-2 i scored all 3 goals and hax i think x7 his score
Are you good at doing basic aerials?
we should play
If you're gonna play passive you gotta bring up defense 🤺
No but it can be useful
learn how to dribble = less open nets missed, rotations are just actively thinking about it all the time untill it clicks, and the moment you can tell your closer to the ball, go hit it before someone else does
LF1 that could coach me for free. im diamond 2 peek champ 1
rotations are just from playtime from what ive seen
they just need hookshot in gold or basic clears on net
dribble is for diamonds and champs
🗣
im pretty decent at shots of the wall
not true, there are GCs that do nothing but chase endlessly it's a bad habbit that can go quiet far
i dont mind as long as they score
i usually recognize my opponents mistakes but i fail to take advantage of them cause i play too passively
LF1 that could coach me for free. im diamond 2 peek champ 1
I suggest dribbles because once you figure it out, your control is much better at that rank for dealing with open nets, because everyone fumbles open nets for some reason
Look for openings if you’re closer to the ball then anyone else there’s your chance
they dont have enough control to learn dribbles
you get diamond by just playing without learning anything
play a tighter rotation then, your to far out of the plays
im actually far better at dribblinb with kbm than controller
probably cause of input delay id imagine?
and also cause ive been using a controller for 2 weeks while ive been using a keyboard for.... 9 years
just practice more then
Controller is better for in air movement or that’s what I think
whatever works for you, i am kbm because i dont know how to play on controller
im talking about ground
i swapped to controller it took me a bit of time to adapt but i got it down
I don't have ANY delay on a knockoff ps4 controller.. you might wanna mess with the cts or scts it's something like that in settings
im on bluetooth :/
you can be good with kbm or controller, controller is just easier for a lot of people
Tf they are Bluetooth no?
shoulda put a wire on it
no like i connect to pc thru bluetooth
I'm "almost default"
which has quite a lot of input delay
Nah, hardline in you goon
step 1, stop that, hardline or go back to kbm
i heard that default controls are not good on controller
I GENUIENELY DONT HAVE A USB CABLE
GO BUY 1
wait no i have literally 1 and ill send a picture of it right here right now
I have air roll on L1 and that's the only controller change I have
I just got off😕
I'm still deciding if I wana play or not :c
what rank r u
the acc I'm on has -60 mmr
I'm grand plat 4
d1?
i think the rank of gold is where players start actually existing and not being npcs
from d1 to s3 is wild
its so easy to get out of silver
yeah where they start group chasing the ball everywhere
opponent goes for an aerial
they miss cause they are shit
open net
gold is easy aswell
can someone please help me, its hard for me to airdribble. and I also am probably not in the right rank, so please can someone help me please?
what rank are u?
Silver vs Gold let's see it
im talking about 1s
