[mortal quail]

I hate when Bubba is right

Missing the ball and missing a shot are different

It is but looking at a miss and saying "I missed, don't miss next time"

Not really how it works

[signal lintel]

Gameplay Tip: Figure out what your mistakes are and fix them!

[mortal quail]

Better off focusing on why you missed
Are you going too fast, too slow, trying to aerial when you don't need to, etc

Hence why I don't count it as a mistake
Yes it is a mistake, but I wouldn't focus on it

No I just forget you troll 90% of the time

[eager wing]

i absolutely cant 1v1 aggressive players

it just rips out my mind, cause those mfs just challenge every single ball immediately

and I cant do anything about it

my dribbling is on the level of a silver, no matter how many times I try it ingame

and I dont have perfect car control to do anything else

[signal lintel]

Probably being too predictable, not controlling the ball in a way that gives you enough options. What 1v1 rank?

[eager wing]

plat 2

thinking is not enough if my hands dont move the car the right way, or the ball doesnt go the way I want to

[signal lintel]

There are a lot of different things you could work on to fix/improve that

But if it's really just not making the right movements, you probably just need to practice

If you're making the wrong decision in the moment, then also gotta focus extra on thinking about that

[sturdy phoenix]

Hello i cannot air dribble whit direct only whit anolog and i cant get out of the muscle memory because i dont understand how to the direct spins depending on where my anolog is. IS there any video simplyfing that

[fast tapir]

can someone help me upper my rank plss

[atomic shell]

the last two seasons I've been diamond. now I'm struggling to climb back. I'm p3 div1. I know I need to work on consistency and not whiffing but what else can I improve to rank up? my rotations are okay for the rank. I try to pass when I can or receive a pass. so I'm slowly giving up and thinking mech to diamond again?

[young fox]

It takes time. Your main focus imo should be having a solid defense. You can win most games in that rank with pure defense

[atomic shell]

I have been lacking on the defense training packs. any you'd suggest?

[mortal quail]

Don't pass, focus on supporting your teammates plays and covering for him. Passing will not work. Focus on basic mechs like dribbles and flicks, basic aerials, and standard solo plays

[atomic shell]

how do I support their plays? demos/bumps and things like that? or just making sure to be in a good spot if they lose a 50

that sort of thing?

[young fox]

I’ll dm you some

[atomic shell]

thank you

[mortal quail]

Demos and bumps is very situational, but I mean being in a spot to where if he beats a player, you can beat the other to score, or support by covering for him when he makes a mistake. This allows him to trust you and go for more things leading to more chances

[atomic shell]

okay, got you. I'll try to work on that. thank you

[unkempt quarry]

any free coaches?

[merry pagoda]

I need help getting out of silver 3 div 4 i have won over people that are gold but I have just been stuck

[signal lintel]

Do you have normal camera settings? Do you keep ballcam on? Are you talking about 2v2?

[versed topaz]

What's your rank?

[merry pagoda]

Bro I’m not that bad hahah I use ball cam most i have good settings and binds i can do arials a bit off shadow defens and lots of other things

[unkempt quarry]

i am diamond 3 in 2s rn but im usually like c1 to c2, and i hit gc 2 seasons ago and i am on keyboardand mouse now

[merry pagoda]

And yes 2v2 in 1v1 I’m the same rank to but yesterday i got Tilden so now im silver 3 div 1 hahaha

[signal lintel]

Ok yeah just checking since a lot of people in silver have those problems. If you can send video of your ranked gameplay I can give some advice. But really you just need to hit the ball at their net lol

[proven hamlet]

Yo can someone help me with speed flips I wached the spookluke vid on it and got the thing for it on bakkes mod and I have been trying to get it for about a hour now and am yet to get a single correct speed flip

[drowsy barn]

yo i am a diamond never struggled to get out until now could i have some help and maybe some reasons why this might happening dm me

[signal lintel]

It's going to take a lot more practice. If you send me a clip I can give some advice. Which parts does the bakkesmod plugin say you are doing wrong?

[proven hamlet]

my flip cancel i can almost never get right and the dodge angle i can get about half the time

[signal lintel]

Think before you hit the ball, that usually helps

If you can show me gameplay I can give more advice

[signal lintel]

Ok so you can practice some without the cancel or boost, to check/practice the flip direction

Mix that in with normal practice

[proven hamlet]

are you ok going into a voice room so i can show my screen?

[signal lintel]

I can't rn

But it isn't going to help tbh you just need to practice a lot since you haven't gotten too far yet

In summary, just practice in a scream room

[proven hamlet]

ok i will try what you say thanks for the help its hard because i thoght i was already speed fliping and i just go bored so i tryed this and resized that i have not been doing it right all this time

[signal lintel]

👍 good luck

[green grail]

is there anyway to log my times when doing workshop rings maps?

[edgy valve]

does anyone know how to completly or majorly reduce the car auto turning when going for mustys or sometimes even half flips

[signal lintel]

In the air? Rolling or actually turning?

[edgy valve]

like alot of the times going for a musty in particular, my car will decide to just do a partial turn with no extra input but the flip cancle of the musty

wish i could show a clip but cant send media

[signal lintel]

You can only cancel the forwards/backwards part of flips. So not understanding that might be part of the problem

[edgy valve]

yea its hard to explain without a clip but it literally just turns my car like i help airrole left/right for a second so then i end up landing poorly and fucking myself up

but i dont know why its happening

[signal lintel]

Could be bad flip direction, not cancelling early enough, or air rolling wrong

[edgy valve]

hm

[signal lintel]

Those are normal problems for people learning speedflips at least

[edgy valve]

strange

[signal lintel]

Which is a common flip cancel

[edgy valve]

yea im good for the mechanics bit it just this happens so often i dont know if its just me

[signal lintel]

Maybe you aren't flipping exactly forward or backward. DM a clip if you want

[edgy valve]

yh

no i thought this and bought a new controller a couple months ago

ps

1.75 // 1.65 // 0.10 // 0.75

[hearty condor]

why are my opponents suddenly playing super well after a couple minutes of playing awful

okay thankyou

[edgy valve]

so imagine your going for a musty and do the flip cancel but as soon as the flip cancel is inputed your car turns like your pressing airroll for like 0.5 to 1 second

which then means im not on the floor properly

messing me up big time

[runic patrol]

yo, is there anyone kbm that can coach me the bascics?

[pseudo ore]

Luki

Your a Smurf

Hahah😅🤣

Sorry I didn’t mean it

[runic patrol]

k

[signal lintel]

Get good camera settings and keep ballcam on. If you want some more stuff to focus on while you get into the game, DM me

Then just solo queue and you'll rank up, since the opponents are just as bad as your teammates on average

Your teammates and opponents are all just other solo queue players at the same rank (except some parties). If you are better than your rank then you'll rank up.

Try to adapt to teammates, play based on what you actually expect them to do instead of what they should do. It doesn't matter who's fault it is when things go wrong

Oof

[grizzled parcel]

bro ur out here being toxic in a community discord

people are asking for tips and you say stuff like this

you started the convo with this

someone kick this kid

[signal lintel]

You'll be a lot less frustrated if you stop trying to relate 2s and 1s tbh

[grizzled parcel]

and u needed to but in for that?

its called gameplay tips, not gameplay putdown

if ur not here to give tips get out

how is this type of language allowed in this type of server?

i got rank reset from c3

into DIAMOND 2

so therefore

i arent as bad as them

i wont 9/10

[signal lintel]

Ya everyone got reset. So therefore all the other people at your rank deserve c3 or whatever.

[grizzled parcel]

c1 div 4

[signal lintel]

No matter how you look at it, you're the same rank as them

[grizzled parcel]

nah i got mates that were reset from c3 into c1 or even c2

i won more than them

[signal lintel]

Unlucky fr

[grizzled parcel]

thats how this game works

it does actually

i know exactly how it works

just because someone is a specific rank doesnt mean there any good at it. Theres boosting in existence and something else called luck

[signal lintel]

If you are better than the other players at your current rank then just solo queue and rank up, it's really that simple

[grizzled parcel]

ive not had higher than c1 div 3 yet xD

same mmr

not skill level

[merry obsidian]

yo i just started 3 days ago can someone coach me i can easily get out of silver i won every game just didnt play much i can speedflip fast areal dm me

[signal lintel]

Now that is peak gameplay tips material

[grizzled parcel]

no bc i tend to get averagely decent opponents, and trash tm8s. I have played hoops in c2 and had c3s that cant aerial in that rank which doesnt make any sense. I have just destroyed some toxic c1 because he was ballchasing so explain that

[signal lintel]

Uh oh

[grizzled parcel]

C3?!?! AND THEY CANT AERIAL?

you cant be played into c2 in hoops

[signal lintel]

That's not how matchmaking works, you don't tend to get opponents that are better than your teammates. It's not possible unless you only played a few games

[signal lintel]

You didn't learn speedflip or fast aerial in your first 3 days

[grizzled parcel]

better but same rank

[signal lintel]

You really think someone at Psyonix is just giving you unfair matches? It's not a human choosing who is in your games. It's a computer.

[grizzled parcel]

i aint blaming pysonix

I beat the no1 casual oce player the other day and ur telling me rank = skill?

[signal lintel]

You'll be a lot less frustrated after you accept that skill-based matchmaking creates fair matches on average

[mortal quail]

The #1 casual player is c1

Oce, its probably d3

[signal lintel]

Lmao

[grizzled parcel]

oce hes ssl and his name is Acropolis because he plays for my team and ive seen it on the leaderboard

[mortal quail]

You didn't beat a SSL as a c1

[grizzled parcel]

I did

[signal lintel]

Then just solo queue and get SSL

It's really that simple

[grizzled parcel]

its nt

you clearly have no experince if ur telling me i can solo q past c1 by myself with bad tm8s

[mortal quail]

I solo queued to gc

[signal lintel]

It is. If you really are good enough to rank up then you will rank up in solo queue after a lot of games

[mortal quail]

So did everyone else

Its nothing special nor hard

If you cant beat c1s, sorry to hear but your c1

[grizzled parcel]

yeah? your beating ssls?

duhhhhh grow a brain cell my guy

[signal lintel]

Bubba #1

You deserve #1 yes

I have a feeling your teammates will hold you back tho

[feral magnet]

Lf one to help me in champ bc i don't wanna play with randoms

[signal lintel]

Maybe @grizzled parcel can help he's really good for his rank

Yeah it's not fair 😔

[merry obsidian]

i also got 110 saves

[wide summit]

bro

[signal lintel]

Not alot for 3 days. Maybe if it was only one day

[merry obsidian]

1364 centered balls

[wide summit]

[alpine topaz]

I’m and I keep getting knocked down to and bouncing back and forth, it seems like I’m getting better but I keep hitting smurfs or de ranked plats. Any tips?

[graceful sequoia]

Just use zen or some other pro- they use their settings for a reason

And many of their settings are similar- can’t be complete coincidence

No cam settings as far as I know are perfect

And by keeping switching u will never get used to them I think-

[pseudo mountain]

Learn basic ball control, try not to flip into the ball for every hit, and learn basic aerial control.

Tons of stuff on YouTube to help

[feral escarp]

could someone give me tips i sent a link in content promotion

[alpine topaz]

Any tips for when the ball is above you and your right under it?

[gusty egret]

guys where i can bind air roll right if if my bindings are x jump circle boost l1 air roll left r1 normal air roll powerslide r1 l2 r2 foward backward?

[civic kiln]

How can I get better on the wall and how can I get better control I’ve been playing rings maps a wee bit recently but don’t really know how to do it, I’ve just kinda returned to Rl peak in consistently in c2 and rn I’m currently diamond 1-2 😭

[dusky fiber]

Personally i would give normal air roll at L2 and air roll right at r1, yh ik L2 is already binded but u dont need driving backwards in air, so air roll for air and backwards on ground but same binding, if this makes sense, i have powerslide ok square but idk if i works for u

[dusky fiber]

Control with air dribbles etc or getting shots where the ball is a bit more centerd and not directly at the wall?

[gusty egret]

i replaced boost to r1 and put powerslide / normal air roll on circle airroll right on square

[dusky fiber]

Thats wild but if it works for u, u can also type in google „rocket league pro settings“ there are many listed and u can see which ones come close to yours and what settings they have

[primal marsh]

i need help to get out of gold

anyone can help

?

[rustic fern]

what should i do to get out of plat 3/d 1

i wanna make it to d 3 by the end of the season

[runic patrol]

yo, can anyone coach me on pc, i think i play like a silver rn

[dusky fiber]

Focus ob Powershots on target and dont chase

[primal marsh]

already do that

but still me hardstuck gold

[runic patrol]

bro i cant even control the car 😭

[primal marsh]

20 hours and only gold 3

[rustic fern]

add me lets talk

[dusky fiber]

Play more 1s to improve individually, play less risky (not overcomitting in corners), look more around you to make your decision making better), rotate more around the smaller pads to stay more in rotation and not leaving your mate alone too mucz, look at yourself and dont blame your mate (all this also refers to champ in order to get higher)

[rustic fern]

kaseycgg

[primal marsh]

COACH ME

[dusky fiber]

U can consistently do powershots on target out of multiple positions?

[dusky fiber]

Whats your rankV

[rustic fern]

add my epic kaseycgg

i know your not talkin to me but im stuck plat 3/d 1

[runic patrol]

like silver

[dusky fiber]

Same as above, focus on powershots on target out of multiple positions and try not to chase, with that u will get plat/dia easily if u can do that consistently

[rustic fern]

what do i need to get out of d

dia

[civic kiln]

Wall reads, Wall defence, not missing the ball jumping of the wall

[rustic fern]

alright thank you

[dusky fiber]

Play more 1s to improve individually, play less risky (not overcomitting in corners), look more around you to make your decision making better), rotate more around the smaller pads to stay more in rotation and not leaving your mate alone too mucz, look at yourself and dont blame your mate (all this also refers to champ in order to get higher)

[dusky fiber]

Most people make mistakes cause the panic, the jump and immediately flick after without control, try at first jumping off the wall, then turning straight and then flick or boost to the ball, if the ball is too fast for people able to do it this way rather dont go for it, cause it will be likly that u completely miss, end up being infront with no boost leaving your mate alone

[rustic fern]

im good on attacking but not when defending

i can air dribble and hit power shots more time then not, but my defence side is lacking hard and i need some help

[severe mulch]

down for a priv match?

[rustic fern]

@severe mulch priv match with me?

[severe mulch]

uhh im bad whats ur rank

[rustic fern]

im only plat 2

[severe mulch]

im plat 1 💀

what region?

[rustic fern]

im use but ill play any

[civic kiln]

Yeah definitely I tend to get a little awkard on the wall it’s definitely the weakest of my game

[severe mulch]

im eu

[civic kiln]

Just out of curiosity do you know any training packs to practice those type of situations? It’s alright if you don’t I don’t rlly expect anyone to know a training pack code off by heart

[dusky fiber]

Being unpredictable, switch up your playstyle during the game so he doesnt know what’s happening next, with this u will also win some of those games u would think u loose. Feel like thats the most important things besides the obvious things like kick offs, boost management, shadow defense, dribbles, etc.

[dusky fiber]

Play 1s, u will get a lot in those scenarios and can try things and see yourself what works out or not

[dusky fiber]

Yh i see try the way i told u it will get better the more u hit, if u just fly past it there will not change much

[dusky fiber]

Unfortunately not, but try finding things like backbord defense or wall shots, key words like this

[rustic mirage]

I am plat and i need help idk what i am doing wrong

[pine bluff]

any tips to air driblle?

[civic kiln]

Sound tyy

[dusky fiber]

Np

[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

[vernal rune]

Yo after this comp match wanna go into a privet match and give me a little coaching?

any tips on getting out of gc 2? ive been stuck in the 1650-1700 range. I honestly feel im playing perfect games.

[crisp roost]

can anyone coach me im unranked but in gold lobbies

[dusky fiber]

Prob for the most part consistency, speed and adapting skills, whats your 1s rank?

[dusky fiber]

Get better with powershots on target out of multiple positions and try not to chase

[vernal rune]

I think my setup is good, but I'm pretty sure my delivery is trash.

I can send a few clips and show you. @dusky fiber

[dusky fiber]

Yh sure send them

[vernal wadi]

Guys I NEED help. I used to be d3, and peaked c1 in season 10. Then because of the rank reset, I placed plat 3 (even tho I won 7/10 placements) I was frustrated and started getting bored/annoyed. I took a break for 2 months and hopped back in December. I am so washed and am hardstuck d1 (I solo q). I've been playing 1s and also giving up pretty dumb goals. Is anyone willing to maybe do a cas 2s game or a 1v1 and go through a replay with me? (I'm console so I can't share a replay)
(I'm NAE)

[eager wing]

bro the speedflip test map is some acc bullshit

its impossible to touch the ball even if I do it correctly

[ornate swallow]

ive been g3-p3 for 2 years.

never gettin past that, i was so close to getting d1 once and 2 days later rank reset came, and it placed me in GOLD 3.

I cant go back up again

[mortal quail]

Assuming it's 2s
Do you play 3s or 1s?

[ornate swallow]

2's

mostly 2's

[vernal wadi]

well then ur not doing it correctly

are u the same rank as me?

whats ur rank now

[mortal quail]

Play some 1s or 3s
Rank reset depends on other modes so if you can get one of the modes up it will benefit you. Plus jt will help you adjust your playstyle, since you've been stuck for so long
You need to change how you wanna play and improve

[ornate swallow]

Dang thanks man

[eager wing]

???

then theres no way to learn speedflip, cause all youtubers r spilling some vague jackshit

[hidden wraith]

Speed flipping is overrated as hell honestly. It’s a nice mechanic to know but as long as you are quick to the ball at kickoff you can beat most speedflippers

[quick burrow]

Aup lads, just need a few things clearing up. When should I fast aerial? How do I get more consistent hitting the ball, sometimes I accidentally do a front/side flip instead of a diagonal flip?

[mortal quail]

Speedflip isn't even a hard mechanic
Just takes practice

[eager wing]

how am I gonna practice it if im doing it wrong every single time

[dusky fiber]

Nah its not, might be one of the most useful ones, and not that hard once u get it

[mortal quail]

Learn to do it right first then adjust

[eager wing]

im saying its impossible to learn

[hidden wraith]

It’s not

[vernal wadi]

bro u literally have evidence

[mortal quail]

When is very situational, usually you use it when you wanna beat someone to the ball, use freeplay and just drive around hitting the ball, adjust your deadzone

[quick burrow]

It’s easy and pretty much required once u hit champ on 1s

[mortal quail]

Of course
Because it can't be your fault

[hidden wraith]

Oh no never lol

[mortal quail]

Never seen this guy ever take the blame, always someone else's fault

[vernal wadi]

if ur d2-c1 in 2s or plat 2-d1 in 1s please dm me

[quick burrow]

Ah alrighty. Would that be controller deadzone or dodge?

[eager wing]

yeah ty i already know im a piece of absolute garbage shit that'll never succeed in life

[hidden wraith]

If you think it’s impossible then it’s legit just your fault. Thousands of players do it so it’s legit just a skill issue

[mortal quail]

Dodge

[quick burrow]

Lol it’s just a game

[hidden wraith]

Bronze 2

[eager wing]

plat 2

[mortal quail]

You clearly didn't because you blame everyone else lmao

[hidden wraith]

Emo ahh

[mortal quail]

Then anytime you get help, you just tell us we are wrong

Its wild

[quick burrow]

Cheers, I did take it down from 0.7 to 0.6 because someone on YT said as u improve u need to lower it. But I’ve only just started accidentally backflipping and stuff, idk whether to stick with it or change back

[eager wing]

blud there are people doing air dribbles and speedflips as soon as plat 3

[vernal wadi]

nah actually bro ur so right

[mortal quail]

Thats already pretty low, make sure you don't have stick drift, or accidentally hold it

[mortal quail]

And, why do you wanna copy them

I didn't learn air dribbles till c3, speedflips I still can't do consistently

[patent cypress]

I can speed flip at gold 1

[eager wing]

1s

[patent cypress]

Not that hard

I can help if want

[royal sage]

How much mmr is champ 2

Div 1

[vernal wadi]

dimitrus, ur plat 3 in 1s?

check rocket league tracker network

@royal sage

[royal sage]

Yh

[vernal wadi]

check rocket league tracker network

[royal sage]

Alr

Nah

I'm 1154

[vernal wadi]

nah 1075 is c1

[royal sage]

And not champ 2

[vernal wadi]

it must be 1200

[royal sage]

Maybe

[vernal wadi]

nvm

[royal sage]

Can't be 1056

[eager wing]

because all your tip is 'practice and learn', which is 0 useful information

[vernal wadi]

it says it's 1055

[royal sage]

Oh it's 1196

[vernal wadi]

@eager wing whats ur rank in 1s?

[royal sage]

Does anyone have advice to get to champ 2

[eager wing]

i already said its plat 2

[vernal wadi]

ah ok, wanna 1v1 for fun? im barely plat 3

plat 3 div 1

[mortal quail]

My guy, you think the mechanic is impossible and youtubers are faking it. Speedflip is a Mechanic that just takes some time.

[vernal wadi]

and im washed af rn

[mortal quail]

Just delay the kickoff, its free

[vernal wadi]

anybody here plat 3 in 1s?

[vernal wadi]

not every time tho

they'll learn and just adjust

[mortal quail]

Then you adjust with it

Rocket science I guess

[vernal wadi]

yeah

same

sometimes i hit a speedflip when I don't mean to, like 1/100

yeah and when u flip in the ball u gotta be like in the midde

u can just tip it

[eager wing]

also love these shill reddit posts 'OMG DAR CHANGED MY LIFE'

bro i literally deranked 100 mmr after changing from FAR to DAR

[mortal quail]

Why do yall keep queueing

[eager wing]

losing to a guy named 'roblox ferrari' 😭

nvm that kid was too bad even for me

but icl this game is pure depression inductor

[hidden wraith]

Is it worth switching to mouse and keyboard if I’ve been playing controller for ages

I prefer controller in RL but without rebinding my controls to be whack asf then it can be hard to do some mechanics

[strong river]

Why would u want to play kbm?

[hidden wraith]

Ig it gives more buttons and accuracy in movement

[strong river]

Its not worth it imo

[hidden wraith]

Aight

[strong river]

But play however fits you

[hidden wraith]

Yeah

[royal sage]

Anyone have tips to rank up in champ 2

[hidden wraith]

Yeah okay

I mean it’s a pain having jump and boost right next to each other cos you have to press both at the same time and it’s weird. And also boosting while drifting it very hard

[sour schooner]

guys

why isnt

there a general chat?

[hidden wraith]

Or #off-topic-discussion

[pure olive]

is it easy?

[sour schooner]

[sour schooner]

i joined 3 daqys ago

its difficult for me

why does it say u are banned from matchmaking 7 mins?

ye?

why

anyways wanna play together

oooooo

ok i wont leave now

i leave cuz we were losing and my teamates were afk

4 mins left

kk

[regal cave]

can anyone give me good keybind for controller

[umbral crag]

lmfao that's just skill issue. musty's speed flip training pack has so much room for error. you can literally hit the ball landing backwards. it's even possible to hit the ball using a straight front flip (kbm/binds where you can front flip cancel + air steer and dar at the same time)

it's easy on both

I play kbm but I got speedflips down on controller after less than 5 mins

[eager wing]

how

[umbral crag]

front flip cancel while holding dar

[eager wing]

my hand hurts doing alldat on controller

[umbral crag]

ok then don't speed flip

it isn't even necessary for comp

[mortal quail]

I think my issue is worse tbh

My fingers can't do it

[umbral crag]

you can get gc2 or whatever just fine without speed flips (even in 1s)

[umbral crag]

you are diff. you can't press more than one button at a time

yea he only has one

he ate the others

[mortal quail]

True story

[regal cave]

im ass please help me get better 🙏

[eager wing]

what is ur dar binded to on kbm

[umbral crag]

default

[eager wing]

ion get it how u can cancel the flip while also holding dar

[umbral crag]

if you are on kbm and can't speedflip that's even more skill issue

w+e or w+q and slide your finger straight down to s

[umbral crag]

don't need to after flipping

[astral urchin]

sm1 down to go over some stuff in replay with me im stuck in champ and honestly dk wtf im doing wrong half the time

[umbral crag]

but you are canceling flip with your middle finger anyways. ring and pointer finger should be for dar so shouldn't be any problem. the thing most new kbm players struggle with on default binds is holding dar while tapping/holding air steer which you can just do by angling your finger down to press both at the same time and angling up whenever you only need to press dar

[eager wing]

wdh is air steer

[umbral crag]

a/d left/right turn

it's what the game calls it in controls

no

where did i mention shift

[strong river]

I have 800-900 hours on the game and i only use directional air roll lmao

[cyan sage]

yea im down

[ebon elk]

How do I stop my tms from throwing because they think I'm smurfing

[wet kiln]

why do they think ur smurfing?

[ebon elk]

Idk??

[wet kiln]

you air dribbling in plat or smth

[ebon elk]

D2

[wet kiln]

what mechs are you doing

[ebon elk]

Nothing too fancy

Aerials, dribbling, shooting, flicks maybe?

That's it really

Sometimes I might do an air dribble but that's only if the oppourtunity comes

[wet kiln]

im same rank as you and that stuff is normal lol unless you are double resetting or cross map air dribble ur teammates shouldnt be throwing

[ebon elk]

I can't do either

[wet kiln]

just unlucky with teammates

[ebon elk]

No way I'm losing cus I'm too good

That's crazy

Keep in mind I haven't played for months

[wet kiln]

send me a replay ill look later

ill tell you if i would call you a smurf cus im same rank

[mortal quail]

I doubt they are throwing because your too good

[quick burrow]

Right, it looks like I can’t send youtube links in here. Could someone DM me if you’re down to give me some advice from one of my replays😄 I’m D1 (just about) in 1s

[umbral crag]

I still refuse to believe you are d2

[ebon elk]

"You're a smurf" (precedes to throw)

[umbral crag]

no one does this + if they are it's diamond just outplay your tm8 too

[quick burrow]

I’m in the same boat haha

[umbral crag]

you are a lost cause fr. but if ur being srs work on your kickoffs (mainly getting the possession afterwards/recovering), practice shooting (training packs while redoing shots over and over placing them in dif spots + coco's aim trainer with variation), play off their mistakes in those ranks/be more patient/actively think about what you are doing because they aren't

that's more than enough for c1

[mortal quail]

Did my coaching just not help

[umbral crag]

ppl in that rank just ape

[umbral crag]

he is awful at 1s fr bro lost 13-0 when I had +200 ms and boost unbound

just boom it on target with power

[mortal quail]

You said he was diamond in 1s

How bad have player gotten

[umbral crag]

they shifted 1s up in the lower ranks

it's bad now lmao

no, you are diamond because they shifted it up

[mortal quail]

So I can prob hit champ in 1s

Is what your saying

[umbral crag]

i mean shade was like 1 game off ssl in 1s again today so prob

[mortal quail]

[dapper torrent]

How do you like

Jump in the air

When your doing a Ariel thingy and I see ppl do like 5 jumps in the air while I only get 1 double jump which doesn’t even work half the time

[signal lintel]

They touch all their wheels on the ball to get another jump/flip, it's called a flip reset. Same as when you land on the ground or another surface, then you can jump again

This is how jumping works, when you jump off a surface instead of falling off of it without jumping

[pure olive]

can you play rl on a wheel?

[signal lintel]

You can play anything on a wheel. But no you shouldn't

i need help when i front flip forward i go bacwards can ive help

yep

my forward and back ar elike swapped

Why should you learn air roll? Is it just for style or does it actually have a function?

[hot tusk]

Does anbody have any tips for learing flip resets?

bro what

im gc3

its a glitch

[pure olive]

it has a function

[dense lichen]

Which... is?

[fast gate]

I would try asking in #community-support

[pure olive]

look at some videos

[little kernel]

i have

doesnt work

[dense lichen]

Well i did and the only thing they say is "OMG its so important!"
Without telling me f*cking why

[little kernel]

y u mad

[pure olive]

then idk what you watching

[dense lichen]

Some randome stuff

[pure olive]

you havent?

[little kernel]

well i have

[pure olive]

most of it is just momentum

and if you wanna flip reset
also air driblling

[pure olive]

no messages from you in the chat

so no

[fast gate]

In a perfect world no one would need air roll but ppl use it because it's easier to do things like air dribble with it.

[fast gate]

You can't be 100% actuate with out it in some situations l.

[pure olive]

also landing is smoother

[dense lichen]

And why exactly is it easier to air dribble and stuff with it? It just seems to overcomplicate that stuff

[unreal vault]

So i need help i have over 120 hours on the game im gold and i just got a controller i need someone to teach me to play with it

[pure olive]

controller is worth it!

[mellow oak]

Hi guys, a questions for those who are champ plus - How long did it take for you to get out of diamond?

I am on like 1500 hours and stuck here

1600+*

Doesnt help of the mmr reset that there are a lot champ players in diamond

[undone goblet]

to get champ like 350 hours, now on gc2 with 1400

[mellow oak]

are you talking about hours on the epic games screen or the in game rocket league one?

[undone goblet]

on epic, in game i have smth in the 400s

[mellow oak]

did u practice a lot? how did u do it so quick?

@undone goblet

[undone goblet]

i had 508 in game, idk i just played the game for fun and tried to get better, no hidden tricks or nothin

[mellow oak]

nice

ill wait on others' input, looking for advice honestly

[undone goblet]

there are no tricks or specific methods, some people learn faster tha others

[mortal quail]

It took me 300 to get to d1
But 400 to get c1
Then at 1k I hit gc1

[mellow oak]

@mortal quail @undone goblet are you guys just exceptions then? cos these guys who are in ssl are like 6000+ hours so the maths isnt adding up to me

[undone goblet]

ssl is a different level, its gonna take me at least another 2-3k hours to hit ssl

[mellow oak]

even then

its still quick

cos u will be on 4k hours if u hit ssl which is not a lot

[undone goblet]

4k to just get into low ssl isnt that fast i dont think

big difference between 1900 ssl and like 2100+

[mortal quail]

1.5k seems to be the average for gc1 from what I've seen

SSL is a complete different beast

[mellow oak]

really man? I asked my teammate who is like c2 level and he is on 1500+

this is crazy to me

i practice

this is shocking to me lol

[undone goblet]

people say its a lot harder to hit gc nowdays im not too sure tho

[mellow oak]

this is too broad. what should i be practicing in diamond. what sort of drills?

I have hit champ 1 2 seasons ago so I am not low level diamond

[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

Too bad you can't have a pfp because your perma banned

Clearly

[mellow oak]

Thanks. what is tilt queuing?

[mortal quail]

When your mad or upset but keeping playing

Its legit always bad

[mellow oak]

listen, dont talk to me like you are my teacher. if you are going to give advice that is detailed and informative, you dont deserve my attention.

[mortal quail]

There is no scenario

[mellow oak]

you are not*

[mortal quail]

There is a reason he doesn't like me😭

[mellow oak]

you lack understanding. go read the chat from when i first ask my question then you will get it

this is stupid. so if im in diamond let me practice mustys, resets and pinches as well as everything else? what sort of dumb advice is that? you learn the things that are important in your rank then you worry about the advanced stuff in the future ranks.

This is why im asking those who have gone through the stages so that they can give detailed and appropriate advice like @mortal quail did. if you are just gonna be toxic and give generic answers that everyone knows then honestly go bother someone else

[undone goblet]

[shrewd iron]

can someone coach my friend and I? we are new to the game and just tryna learn the basics maybe just go into a game or private mach to help us. we are na east on PC

[stuck finch]

can someone coach my friend and I? we are new to the game and just tryna learn the basics maybe just go into a game or private mach to help us. we are na east on PC

[mellow oak]

when u are new you need to play the game because there are a lot things that cant really be taught and you have to get a feel for the physics of the game and how the car feels etc.

dont ask for coaching yet

[cyan sage]

actually they are not important

Ye it sucks

[torpid lintel]

any other champ or above (or just plain experienced) Breakout main players have any tips/want to talk about ways to utilize the breakout hitbox itself better than just regularly playing? i’ve been finding certain ways to incorporate the length of the car itself to gain some advantage, (which i’d be very interested in talking about) but there are some downsides i’ve been unable to truly solve. anyone able/want to talk about something like that?

[mortal quail]

Its essentially the dominus, which are very good at 50s and basic flicks. It's a little difficult to get accurate aerial hits, as the window from your nose to the top of the car is small

[torpid lintel]

i’ll say as a breakout main dominus kinda feels nothing like the breakout

like it’s pretty similar hitbox wise

but i honestly can’t say they compare when in game

50s are definitely a notable thing though. besides regular low and high 50s, when on defense i’ve taken up a strategy that involves just facing the car vertically with the roof toward the ball

it pretty much guarantees the ball goes left or right, almost never behind

[coarse crypt]

No

[torpid lintel]

it doesn’t work always cause of the setup needed but it’s not uncommon at all, i do this like 3-6 times a game

saves are also simply easier

[half girder]

Someone willing to help me learn wall to arieals I'm struggling to stay with the ball after I get the setup and get it off the wall

[torpid lintel]

but the main issue i have with the breakout even after 5 years of maining it is recoveries and sometimes wavedashes

since the hitbox is just more lanky and long, there’s a thing that often happens where the car pushes itself upward during a flip

or when it lands, it doesn’t let itself land on the wheels, and wobbles for some part of a second, which really often costs a goal or loses possession or something

the way i’ve tried to solve breakout recoveries for now is by rotating my car upward into the ground while landing; it seems to hit the ground harder when this happens and there’s less chance of it wobbling. wavedashes i’ve not found much solution to

rotating upward meaning i rotate the nose downward toward the ground as much as possible, and then time the landing by tilting the nose back up

it usually works pretty well but i’m wondering if any other breakout users have some other method of solving that, cause i’m 100% sure this is an issue inherent to the car; the flips literally push you off the ground, and the recoveries are harder due to the higher chance of the ground hitting a part of your car that isn’t the wheels making it harder to realign yourself

[cyan sage]

dominus is just best

[rose quarry]

Im currently stuck at c2 and im looking for a cocah or some tips, any help?

[torpid lintel]

that’s not the question i’m asking

[gentle wing]

Coaching people from

[grand holly]

What is your question exactly, then? There’s a reason breakout isn’t mained throughout pro play. Why main breakout? It’s a great car for freestyle and dribbling but it is an inherently worse car overall. If you want the best car with the best hitbox, play Fennec. That’s why it’s played in pro play the most, statistically. Maybe I’m not understanding your contention.

[torpid lintel]

i don’t want a car with the “best hitbox” i want to know how to better utilize the hitbox i am already using, the breakout

i think octane hitbox may be more balanced but i am not looking for balance and if there is even a best hitbox tbh i don’t believe it’s the octane

i want to know how to better take advantage of and work around the breakout one

like, there must be certain strategies to make the breakout even more relevant to a game other than just playing the game good, just as there must be for the other cars

i have specific strategies i already do, but i wonder about other ones

I would imagine that no one has the specialty in the breakout hitbox as you do, besides Gainer perhaps. People are not experienced with a breakout hitbox, definitely no one here. I don’t know what your goal is, but if it’s to play Rocket League the best you can, the breakout isn’t the right move. If it’s just to master the breakout, then you are likely on your own.

[lavish comet]

Can someone help me learn tricks useful in plats. I really wanna learn better faking and better flicks

[lusty galleon]

plat needs basic shooting and saves

thats basically it, just practice those things

[lusty galleon]

dribbling is far more difficult but flicks far more powerful, although harder to aim
air dribbling is a bit easier and stronger
resets are about the same difficulty to obtain but are more powerful
50s are more difficult and drive commits arent as good
shooting is slightly more precise

overall: air play is better, ground play slightly worse, 50s slightly worse

the skill ceiling of flat cars is a little bit higher than octane hitbox, but not even the best players in the world are able to capitalize on that yet

[humble dagger]

why would anyonbe use that monstrosity of a car

besides the hitbox it looks actua.l garbage

[lusty galleon]

breakout is one of the coolest looking flat cars imo, headlights a little goofy tho
paladin also looks sick

[humble dagger]

breakout is like dominus's annoying little cousin

[lusty galleon]

i stand by breakout and his goofy headlights

[shut wraith]

How do I speedflip

[lusty galleon]

dominus is boring, everyone uses it

[lusty galleon]

diagonal flip and cancel back after flipping. boost through it. next question

if you're on kbm, its easy
on controller, much harder

either way its gonna take practice to get consistent

[shut wraith]

I'm still confused on speedflip

[lusty galleon]

whats confusing you

[shut wraith]

Diagonal flip cancell

I'm d1

So I'm trying to learn

[fringe grail]

U rlly don’t have to learn speed flips in diamond

[fringe grail]

You’ve been playing for 5 years and ur champ?

[shut wraith]

@fringe grail how do I win kickoff

If I can't speedflip

[fringe grail]

Diagonal flip?

[shut wraith]

I'm always losing kick off

[fringe grail]

I’m in c2 and I still win kickoff a lot without speed flips

[shut wraith]

@fringe grail I dont

[fringe grail]

Either ur playing against everyone speed flipping, which I doubt, or ur just driving at the ball with no flips

[shut wraith]

Almost everyone I go against speed flips

[fringe grail]

Mhm ok

[lusty galleon]

not everyone plays 6 hours a day 7 days a week

[shut wraith]

U prob got easy diamond lobbies if they didn't

[fringe grail]

🤓

[lusty galleon]

yeah but its not cause you cant speedflip
its cause you probably:

1. arent hitting the bottom center of the ball
2. are flipping out of the way of the ball

speedflips make a good kickoff better

[shut wraith]

@lusty galleon o ok

[lusty galleon]

but a misaligned speedflip will get destroyed by a gold who is actually lined up for the ball

[shut wraith]

@fringe grail bro really

[lusty galleon]

literally just forward flip, then single jump into the bottom center of the ball without flipping.
you will beat basically everyone up until like high champ or low gc

[shut wraith]

Ok thank you

[lusty galleon]

no way

[heavy arrow]

If done it right, most people speedflip and flip way too late this ends up in a bad 50/50

[lusty galleon]

yea

[runic patrol]

can anyone coach me on controller, im gold 3 but last season plat 2

[quick otter]

Is there an easy way for console players to learn air roll

[umbral crag]

#gameplay-tips message

[lusty galleon]

learn to turn any direction with the down-right stick input (assuming you are air roll left)

then learn up-right

[quick otter]

Thx

[quick burrow]

Please can someone watch one of my 3v3 replays, I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong

Been stuck in D2 for a while now and I’m happy to put the work in but I need some help finding out what exactly it is that I’m getting wrong

[smoky geode]

dm me if u need coaching 🙂

[maiden stag]

Guys how do I get out of champ 1 and 2

Especially 2

[quick burrow]

Here’s the replay https://youtu.be/7cMOgQWnsAQ?feature=shared

[wispy charm]

I liked the video it's peak

[torpid lintel]

i’m like gc, but i don’t play ranked much, i spent most of my time in rl as a freestyler, and i took a break for like 2 years from 2018-2020

i don’t think champ after 5 years is that bad tho

[wispy charm]

I've played for 4 and I'm plat

so it's not that bad for you

[fringe grail]

Oh ok fine

[torpid lintel]

i mean i don’t think i’m bad at the game i’m ngl but i don’t think champ is bad tbh

especially higher champ

[wispy charm]

does anyone have gameplay tips for switch players that aren't buying a PC?

[torpid lintel]

i think playing on the little switch screen might be best if ur not already doing that

probably the least input latency or whatever

maybe not tho, i don’t actually know. i also don’t know if you can turn vsync off but if you can, do it

actual gameplay wise, id imagine pretty much what other consoles do, maybe less intricate though

[minor remnant]

ive heard console has it rought

[distant mist]

Where is the place to talk about trading

[main lagoon]

trading is removed

[distant mist]

Y

Im OK with it but y was it removed

[eager patrol]

[fathom gate]

i need an advice rq pls, i am 1550 atm and finished gc2 last season, my mecs are solid however i am air roling way too much, like sometimes i cant flipreset or do other stuff cause i dont have the time, since i air role too much, is there a drill to get rid of this habbit

[cyan raptor]

watch monkey moon play

[snow kite]

Who can train me i have a show match

[alpine topaz]

Any tips for when the ball is above the car and you are driving directly under it?

Never found a way to hit it well

Thank you. Also is R2 a bad mapping for air roll? i put it as that for the reason of you dont need reverse in the air

also it feels comfortable rather than having a claw hand over the right side of the controller

You got a better mapping?

R1 is my boost

everything else is standard besides those to mappings

[timber karma]

isnt r2 driving l2 backwards?

nah not for me

[alpine topaz]

Oh dang it

Sorry i have my air roll on L2

[timber karma]

but ion remember changing it

[alpine topaz]

my boost is on r1

Does L1 serve a purpose?

i cant remember off the top of my head

maybe it would be wise to map it there

Would probably feel more natural to me then moving to the opposite side of the controller.

Thanks for the help

[timber karma]

u should do forward and reverse on 1 button yk like either r1 l1 or r2 l2

ig thats easier

[cyan sage]

can someone check out my replays and tell me what to improve on

[timber karma]

btw is here a gc or ssl hoops player? i want to learn it a bit

[cyan sage]

im hard stuck plat in 1s and its my main and highest rank and i reall y dont know i watched pro gameplay and i try to replicate them but i usually do dumb shit all the time

[trail laurel]

I relate

[cyan sage]

like messing up a ground to air dribble from no tgetting a good pop up

oh and my flicks always hit crossbar

[trail laurel]

Anyone know how to master air roll?

[cyan sage]

i just playyed freeplay

and tried spinning saround the wall

mainly custom maps

[mortal quail]

If your plat, don't watch pros
Rather watch either your own replays back or one rank higher and see what they do.

[delicate zenith]

Yea also if you make a lucky shot. Maybe a random cool air touch that got you a goal or was the score touch, try to recreate it. Focus on what you did with your toggle. How you left the ground. How you touched the ball with whatever part of your car you touched it with.

[gilded mortar]

I'm silver but my solo queue teammates keep holding me back

I think i have good game sense and decent accuracy

[delicate zenith]

Don't blame your mates. Focus on what you did wrong. Where you were in the goal. Why you couldn't save or score. Things like that.

If you are really better than silver than it should be an easy exit.
