speedflip is not by rank,
it's by how consistent you are with it,
start by aiming with just a side flip (try to get perfectly accurate)
then a diagonal flip,
then maybe you can grind speedflips in training until you can get it everytime
speed flip be weird
for air dribbles they can be the same thing (practice the basics of it until you get consistent)
but I prefer not learning it below diamond ranks or maybe high diamond
quick question
Is lfg your rank or who you're looking for
cuz I really want to 1v1 a champ or higher in a private match, not a gold
oh aigh
it doesn't matter
if you are looking for a champ type champ
tips to get out of champ?
c1 c2
now i do over commit alot but im really good on ground to air dribbles so that stuff is easy when they give me space
Can someone send me info on exactly what one should train to get better in all rabk departments
yt vid?
Anything
I just don't want to train useless things and end up a forever low ranker
If there's a guide to a fast track development I'd love that
I figure if I have a plan I'd progress so much faster
Gold-1 atm started 2weeks ago just got fast Ariel's to a usable state
Thanks something like this
Yeah I'll try to strive to learn them all
In any order?
Thank you so much I'll strive to work on those. Tourneys starting now
@echo stirrup
Thank you I'll try that out
tips to get out of plat
i can sometimes do speed flips, power hits and aerials
as long as its already in the air i cant start it
practice your setups and pops on the ball so you can pop the ball in the air make sure you practicebasic defensive skills and shadown defence as well as backboard defence if you feel confident enought try to ease your mind and not panic in defence as well as practicing dribbles flicks and positioning. don't only rely on aerials but keep in mind they are a good way to outplay opponents that don't necesserily know how ti aerial
try improoving the setup of the wqall and backboard to make sure you can atleast make a one decent touch on the ball after getting off the wall
i try and panic then leap off when i see someone coming for it
Try not to chase and try to get better with powershots on target. For ranking up u dont need much airals in that rank
don't panic. i know its easier said then done but if you need a boost in confidence its easy to just position your car on the backboard and let the ball touch upper side of your roof to make sure it slides towards the corner of the field off the bakcboard the corner in youyr side of the field is the safest placethe ball can be in\
if i could id send clips where i did good but something was wrong
sure if you want me to point out things you could improove then im more then willing to \
you can either dm me or ping in clips
alright ill dm you but theres music playing in some and its pretty loud
its fine i need no sound to analyze it
what gamemode you try to improove?
aight what seems to be your problem and what you want to improove
the key to hit powerfull shots is to iam at the ball with a front corner of your car wich generates the most power but as well as a well timed flip in the ball ( ther eis also something called a Hookshot ) the hookshot doesnt use flip very often but its all about making a turn into the ball at max speed and hitting it with front or corner and then its just a matter of practice to master it
dm's
Everytime I play the game I always seem to backflip instead of front flip I just wanted to know if there is any way to stop this
push your stick forward
Does someone feel like coaching a c2.....pretty please?
Do I ball chase at c2?
i have a question for a good player, its about free air roll and left air roll when learning it. It only take 2 minutes or so
im ssl i can help rank up
can i ask u a question?
anyone here have any tips for jakze resets, can do them but i cant get it off a reset
Tryna help me have not played this game in years used to be grans champ when it was Max rank
you personally ballchase but you shouldnt
can anyone help me get into champ 2 im div 4 rn
despite the goofy answers of outright "yes" here. ballchasing isn't black or white, you probably attack some things you shouldn't but 2 things, #1 not many people don't ballchase at all, and very few people truly ballchase to a debilitating degree, usually people who main 2s doing 3s, or main 1s doing 2s+...etc
/looking-for-group platform:Any players:1 region:EU (Europe) playlist:Ranked 2's rank:Platinum 1 division:Division III mic-required:No - doesn't matter
your a smart cookie huh
my controls are
Jump X
Boost Circle
Powerslide Square
Ballcam Triangle
Air roll left L2
Scoreboard L1
Drive forward R2
Drive backwards L2
Air roll right R1
my question is do I put middle finger on R2 and index finger on R1 but on my left hand index finger on L2?
ngl im not reading all that. but what i will say is "scoreboard l1" dafuq
ya what else do i put it on lol
an options button
guess it depends on your platform. but on pc, i just set scoreboard to "share" button on my ps4 controller
yea i play on pc too
ok well still my question remains the same
idk how to put my fingers on my controller
Hi
im fairly confident people can't tell you how you "should" hold a controller lol
i think most people don't bind L1 to weird shit, and just hold the controller symmetrically
at this point bro you might aswell look up settings
nothing is wrong with my settings wdym
just the L1 part
idk what skill level you are, but having air roll bound to reverse button makes me sad.
yea yea
i would reccomend moving powerslide to l1 and manual air roll on l1 also(1 is in the air and 1 is on the ground and when using air roll in the ir to recover you want to keep holding it on the ground to maintain speed with powerslid and you can put scoeboard on square
imo
and then i assume its middle finger on L2 and index on L1?
im c3 on kbm with 2.7k hours but im trying to switch to controller
You can but I just have 1 finger on l2. Depends on what’s comfortable for u
... its a keybind. if you are going to learn it, might as well do it to start lol.
id say im diamond3-c1 on controller with like 20h playtime
Does it make sense to switch from the keyboard to the pad after 1650 hours?
im not sitting here saying its a suggestion for new players. but there is legit reason to bind air rolls to triggers
i think your misunderstanding. having it bound to a trigger, means you have better control of your roll. you can roll at 1/3 speed. you cannot do that with l1/r1,
Jump X
Boost Circle
Powerslide L1
Ballcam Triangle
Air roll left L1
Scoreboard Square
Drive forward R2
Drive backwards L2
Air roll right R1
like that?
i don't do it, but it absolutely makes a difference, hence why there are quite a few players/pros who do it
im not saying it should be anything. im saying there is purpose to it being l2 lol. you said there wasn't
until 5 months ago i used normal air roll and no directional lol. keybinds are preference
you dont have a normal air roll which you need
then what do i do bruh there aint enough buttons 💀
stg might as well stick with kbm its so much easier
ik you asked to a degree, but i find it funny people a lower rank than you telling you what keybinds you "need"
Im silver and have terrible defence what should i do
are rings the best way to learn tornado spinning
probably replace air roll left on l1 with air roll because you dont need both directional air rolls
good way to practice it. when swapping over i found the best map was training on pillars map, and just focused on slowly going around the field. only then did i do rings
If you have both directional then you don’t need neutral either
alr thx
yea thats what i thought
its so weird why would i need free air roll if i have both directional
^
I have both directional and I never use neutral
out of curiosity, not to throw shade. what rank?
i prefer left air roll so im just gonna keep left on L1 and use R1 for free air roll then
C2
thats good imo
what deadzone should i use tho
i have .5
The only thing I was trying to say is that it is preference. It won’t make you any worse if you have two directionals or 1 directional and neutral. There’s ways to make it work either way
i use 1.48 1.48 0.07 0.80
dodge deadzone
idk lol
what is it recommended to be, like what radius
ya. i mean kinda starts being important around there as well, but if you don't have an air roll on a trigger at least id be surprised if you find you are very controlled in the air.
typically you are only gonna get the ability to fine tune shots and place them really well if you have something to make small adjustments, either having neutral air roll (most popular) or at least having directional on an analog trigger to be able to slowly roll into a shot cleanly.
probably not a setting you have to care about. if you manage to not accidentally neutral flip you can set it to 99 lol
lol i honestly feel no difference between 0.5 and 0.8
Most of my issues are on the ground
wait do u mind explaining to me what it even does
i have no clue what deadzone does i heard its something with ur joystick
controller deadzone and dodge
as someone who can flick perfectly fine at .80 mind explaining to me how it matters? it literally just sets the range of motion that the game registers you want to flip in a direction rather than neutral flip. as long as you aren't neutral or feelsflipping = great
wait holdup is .2 too low for controller dead zone
that is insanely high and you need a new controller if you have to have it set that high
He’s a pro. It’s not good to copy pros completely. It’s a good base to start with
typically if you wanna set your own settings, google "pro rocket league settings" click liquidpedia, and just mind the ranges they use, find a good number between them
omg i cant get used to powerslide L1, i keep opening scoreboard mid game on accident cuz powerslide was square
get off the game
trust i know the feel. i swapped my reset shot button when i learned directional air roll. kept air rolling instead of resetting my training shots
I did this too when I was trying new layouts
on liquidpedia it kinda ranges from 0 to .2
Rocket league is ezz it just if u get use to ur settings and keep playing it u will be good at it
pfft, 1/50 players using .18 doesn't average out to between 0 and .2
I started the game before like 4 months and I’m already diamond 2 i think because i hade good settings from the beginning
dpad is the thing above the playstation button right
so i take it 1.2 for steering and aerial send is too low as well
i'd just use the lowest your gamepad can handle
mine generally starts tweaking out after 0.05, so I keep it at 0.1 for safety
pffft, coming from the guy talking about 10ms not mattering, that is a bad reason for dodge deadzone to matter "a lot" for flicks btw
I have scoreboard on LS
Put it tow 1.75 to 2.00
wait u mean the arrows? i use that for quickchat
the best way i got better at the game was to play against people who are wayyy batter than you and after a month or 2 of getting used to it youll dominate the rank your in rn
do people not? wtf
i personally use share button, same for reset shots.
@oak totem do i change or is mine fine
I just spam Okay. The whole game to piss every one off
ok lol i changed it to .07
anything between 1 and 2 works well, just experiment with it and go with whatev feels better
next yall will be telling me that i shouldn’t be using square and triangle for my air roll left and right
rw9 uses 2.5 (or 2), which I can barely fathom, but its either his gamepad sensitivity, or hes cooking smth else
kidding kidding lmfao
gotta take all advice from this chat with the mind that most the people who pipe up first are diamonds haha
just keep playing and you'll find whats better for you eventually
I had a gc2 tell me I can hit gc if I get good😎
you keep arguing things im not saying. because you didn't understand that it wasn't for changing directions, it was for fine control, which believe it or not. is important if you want an easier time aiming. not really a "niche" thing, again though. you said it was useless, i was just explaining the factual purpose
but im not arguing dodge deadzone affecting aerials, you said it "matters a lot" for flicks.... which i mean if you said it can effect maaaaybe. but its infinitely purpose is to avoid feelsflipping. its not a stat you really need to care about until you start feelsflipping
did i coach you at some point? that's typically my first piece of advice haha
Nah lmao I got told I need to adapt to different play style
He said my mechs and defense are good enough but there’s a lot of decisions I’m not making correctly
accidentally flipping when you meant to neautral flip
does it matter from plat - champ 2 probably no. but almost literally any setting doesn't lol, especially having deadzone low to flick (not important at all, not even niche)
but especially at higher levels being able to fine tune your movement is important, and you can't tornado spin with normal air roll. so yes a variable speed tornado spin is useful to enough people that quite a few do it
directional air roll itself was in the same place couple years ago. because mechs weren't at that level yet
Yo, lf tips to push from c1-c3 in 2s.
around c1, learn to actually clear the ball or keep control of it while you clear it, try to rotate far post and not crowd the play.
your clears shouldn't immediatly be an opponent possesion in your own half.
otherwise. gotta shoot me a replay...etc
once you start getting closer to c3, not double committing, not taking low % to score shots that instantly give away possession, maintaining your momentum so you can rotate fast...etc become more necessary
Does anyone have any tips to get to diamond in 1v1s?
Can someone coåch me?
who wants to train/practice on call
Alr thanks, I hit c3 already just it seems hard to get back there especially solo que
True
Can someone coach me 🙏
@modest temple here's some stuff to think about
can you review my replay?
Maybe but I don't do voice chat. DM if you want
Can I somehow share my replays?
if ur on pc yes
Yeah im on pc
u just want to send them through discord?
yeah
Document-My Games-Rocket League-TAGame-Demos
Then just drag them to te chat?
notm here you would get banned
but yeah drag them to whoever u want to send them to
npnp
can some1 coach me? im c1 in 2's and d2 in 1's
Is it possible if anyone help me or give me advise about how to find the right sensitivity? I used to play with PS4 controller, but I switched to Xbox controller and I can't control my car no matter how I try to change the sens. (I am c1 division 3 rn)
what is the max dead zone I use?
bubba giving actual good advice!!?
Because In ps4 controller I didn't mind playing on 0.05. But with the xbox one it's like I can't make small movements
do it over and over again for 10-20 min and ull get the hang of it
can I just post a video and you tell me whats wrong
I have been practicing for so long
no
watch a yt and get the basic stuff
then practice it and get consistant
I have i just dont know what happening ive seen so many videos
its like my flick always goes too high
I have fym
I can
practise doesnt make perfect, perfect practise makes perfect
what
if you can't comprehend what I've written maybe you need to pay more attention in class...
written*
you don't understand the saying "perfect practise makes perfect"?
if I can't do a mechanic and i keep practicing without knowing what im doing wrong why should I keep practicing?
they made it dip shit
they're like pros how tf am i meant to figure it out
and hes a pro ik
well im not fuckin gc am I
@cyan sage u sound like Andrew tate XD.
god you're cringe
But training with a professional will help you to be better
Ye
literally every time a game goes into overtime, I lose, what the fuck am I supposed to do
youre supposed to win bro
like seriously though what were you expecting? anyone to say the games rigged after it goes into OT?
I think I was partly just venting, although it is a hopelessly general question really
I've just met you and I already despise you.
Yeah, I'll give you that one, I try to keep the salt at bay but this time I think it just caught up
getting mad never helped anyone
youd be better off thinking about what went wrong after every goal, even if its OT
what was that even supposed to mean
npc comment fr
hi is anyone gc3/ssl that can help me a bit coaching wise, i peaked 1600 and i havent improved in a couple seasons and ive been forced to solo q/ find teamates here and im outclassing all c3s but im not winning. i got mechs but no gamesense and i need help pls <3
practise doesnt make perfect, perfect practise makes perfect
Any questions?
can anyone hop in a game or a vc with me and help me learn how to play the game?
Im playing the game
but like theres alot of modes, which one would be the best mode to help me improve, I plan on playing solo mostly, so probably 1vs1?
2v2s is the most popular, so id say 2v2
even if I dont have another duo?
alright, also I know its normal for most people to just run octane, but is there a big disadvantage to using the other vehicles?
throw the numbers
uhhh tbh Im kind of enjoying the takumi
sure you do buddy
it seems weirdly fast compared to the other vehicles
bro youre literally like diamond max dont even
is alright for me to play with takumi? even its not the most popular/recommended? I just enjoy using it tbh
bro you all can barely play the game what are you sayyinngg
yup
sure is
bro can only see a year back and thinks he knows everything 💀
youre mid
stella bro you didnt know how to speedflip 2 days ago
i can't hit speedflips any advice?
nah but like fr i could before but now it's literally impossible
help
bro has still refused to send me his profile
🧍♂️ so uh
well other than improving in actual matches, is there like training modes that are better?
did stella just get banned?
besides the fact thats lowkey funny, what for??
deserved then
nah but i fr want to know what experience youre talking from if you feel like 1s is actually better for improving
thats fair right?
but are you like actually ssl? or
where are you going to learn how to aerial in 1s
not really, i got to c1 in 1s without using boost once
I mean Im ngl my aerials are horrible, but I havent played long at all so
c1 is 1s is like c3 in 2s right
yes its terrible, but it still takes a WHILE to get to
you cant go all that time without knowing how to aerial usually
that doesnt mean they mained 1s from the beginning
maining 1s from the very beginning gets you nowhere
i mean id love to believe you but really cant without knowing youre actually good at the game
That was my account
wasnt talking about whoevers account that was
I’m feeling a lot of hatred here
?
lmao
a balance of both. 1s is really good for working with on ball stuff but 2s3s are better for practicing off ball (see shade for ex who is like ssl 1s and loses in c3 2s)
2s3s can also get much faster than 1s too
it's this ^
and stuff like the difference in chals when there is a 2nd man
this is such a stupid discussion anyways
someone literally just asked 'what mode should i start out playing' or smtn and all i said was '2s is the most played mode so id say 2s'
of course they all have their benefits
not true
been hitting any clips lately?
yea I posted like 2 in highlights. not comp though.
nah im talking 2s
thats... what i said
even more so in 2s
I can win in gc1 just being grounded
🧍♂️ someone wanna hop in a vc in a lil bit and they walk me through learning and improving?
YES PLEASEEEE
you cant really do that unless youre like a top ssl, and then its still a maybe
I mean I am able to and I am not a top ssl lmao
you are overestimating the skill that gc1s have
they can kind of hit the ball
Yes please I need help with air rolling and air dribbling
im not, gc since season 3
😐
am i though?
not really lmao
ive just gone through it as well, ive not really played much for the past 4 seasons, every season before that is gc or gc2
send tracker
ionno what youre on about
im not even asking you to believe me bro but youre just saying random things at this point, literally go through it
all dutch rl players have an ego its normal bubba
what ego bro??
like i get that you know this bubba person but what have i even done wrong here? like literally nothing???
yeah happens, unfortunately
it doesn't
im js saying i havent met a dutch player without an ego
like the only way you are losing in c3 after being gc2 is if you are super reliant on mechanics or something and just very inconsistent/washed
Can confirm
and then you say i have an ego
💀
swapping controllers and not playing much for periods of time/playing a lot sometimes
wasnt really playing much last month
not even 1 game per day
theres on average more than 1 week between my games in the past month except like the past week bro
10 days* if you want to be precise
if you actually want to get anything from this convo except getting a reaction out of me take it to dms, ok?
then why are you still talking
can someone hop in a vc with me and help train me a bit? I just got into the game for the most part, so Im not too experienced but would greatly appreciate some help
train up boy
who would have thought bubba and dutch guy are still arguing
what rank r u
unranked 🧍♂️
I dont think im experienced enough to hop into ranked game modes yet
i feel the exact same
Really if you had to guess what would I think
You*
Uhh, Im not sure
i think so
Blud what
I hit my first decent "Aerial" and the guy quit after (:
blud you got banned again?
👎
have u hit it before
any1 know how i can look further back in the graph in tracker network?
👍
Scroll
I beat a goldd 3 easy
doesnt work
could any champ or grand champ coach me?
i can i can i can
alr well you do you delete the message so they dont know
What in the what
pls help im hardstuck diamond
Can anyone coach me who is champ or higher I’m hardstyck diamond 1 but feel I am better than that just dm me
Shush
holy yap fest
Banned
womp womp
Alr i can finally consistently get a reset but i dunno what to do with it to get a effective shot on net
You don’t need to reset for no reason it really just allows you to get the ball farther and closer to the net so focus on your dribble towards net to get an accurate shot to the net to flip reset
I don’t think he was asking for advice. Although you are right
Also how do i learn pre flips in the air to hit the ball
I was wondering tbh
It’s typically a diagonal flip
My bad then
But like when to do it
@clear jackal
When the ball is too low or too far away for an air dribble
My bad then you got it I’ll stop offering advice 🤔🤷♀️
hello people
Nah I had read it wrong my bad
You out of silver yet?
Bubba back. I saw your message and I went to respond and you got banned.
Did you quit after our 1v1 I think it was like me 31 you 2 or something
Shot packing is the easiest way to get back into the form you were prior. Also, watching your prior games to see how you played before is very useful.
Don't expose me Stella, it isn't cool!
I dunno, that seems pretty cool to me...
Good point.

Check ballchasing.com
Link your profile and you can see games other people saved with you in them.
just lost me plat wit a random
I know it’s just cause I’m Top 13 3v3s, SSL and top 25 RLCS🤷♀️
Hmmm, sounds like someone I know.
Yeah I know I’m just that good probably heard of me here or there I’m like a coach🤔
Oh, could you coach me?
Yeah I’m super good I beat Nexto with medium mechanics so
Hi guys, I’m hard stuck diamond 1 and was wondering if anybody could coach me who is high ranked Dk me if interested
Oh my!
Yo does anyone want coaching
my bad but i could use some coaching it would mean alot to me
if anyone would want to coach me lmk
😄
coaching anone except anyone named Ryderplays_ttv
I stucked in d1 anyone who is higher rank want to coach me ?
I’ll 1v1 anyone lower then champ, and critique the gameplay live
(I’m bored)
me?
Sure
you dont play enough you arent smart enough you dont have the determination to be a pro
Why can’t I see my rank when I choose Comp
Has anyone else bound directional down as reset shot? I'm a noob done get me wrong but it seems so vital to me for training shots especially in training packs you unconsciously train both sides of the same shot with every reset and I feel like it helps with developing a sense of a skill too
You also have to have directional down as mirror shot but that's default I think?
Change both your reset shot and mirror keybinds
Change it to the scoreboard button
I forgot default is lb
Change it to one of the center buttons on your control
Left toggle click then
I like it on my directional down button since I can't chat in training anyway
And it's just unconscious at this stage
Unless you don't have chat on the directional buttons?
should appear after playing a game
I mean like the comp playlist where it says trips/duos/solos. Shouldn’t it show a rank your in for each?
yes
but it showed me everything unranked once and after playing the playlist i saw the rank for it
Been months and still don’t see it
Nothing 💀
I’ve heard of others having this glitch if restarting doesn’t fix then idk
im ssl i can help rank up
Any tips for flip reset musty?
LF free coach (DM ME)
down to help some guy rank up (from bronze to d3)
Morning everyone
step1. learn how to get flip reset
step2. get consistent with getting the reset
step3. get consistent with the movement foir the musty after getting the rest
step4. trial and error untill you get it down
Depends. if you want to improove and play better or just want to be boosted and nothng else
my dms are open
well im the one helping out ahah
Oh yeah sorry silly me read it tge wrong way
its ok, english isnt my first language so it was hard to understand ahahah
yo i need some tips in 1s dm me if u can and vc if u can
What rank are you?
depends on what exactly you are lacking would be nice if you told me qwhat you struggle with mechanicaly and in terms of gamesense
What rank you need advices foir?
D1 in 1s and c1 in 2s and can u vc
alrighty. so to hit platinum i will tell you overall what yopu should be able to do and you tell me what you can't okay?
im currently unavilable for vc will be at 8pm utc+1
Any tips
for 1s tho
- flips on kickoff, powerslide usage, simple short dribbles , front flicks, basic aerials decent defence ( simple ) patience, powershots ( simple ) , backpost rotations and collecting several small pads when lacking boost
Depending on your playstyle but most important 50/50 good kickoff preferably speedflip, patience, good defence, decent flicks from midfield mindgame fakes.
to rank up you have to understand your opponent is better than you it will vget better 50/50's and overall might be more consistent so play patiently focus on good boost management pacing and defence ( shadow defence ceiling challanges andf backboard controll, if your opponent early challanges you have to make sure yopu can put a powerfull flick even if it is over the net
make sure you know wavedashes and use a lot of powerslide to recover what might help get an advantage is walldashes ( its a surprisingly easy mech to master )
if u are consistent with airdribbles also could go for airdribble bumps but don't overuse it cuz ppl gonna start reading your play if you never switch it up, be uinpredictable
go for all kinds of plays , drbbnles bumps fakes air plays boumnce dribbles to powershots cuts and more the more unpredictable and annoying you are the better
Your own corner of the field is your best friend use it to tall time and gain boost
(radio silence for 2h ima head home from work )
any mkore questions dm me
today i have one slot open at 10pm utc+1
yes free
Poland
not sure yet
dm i will get back to you in some time
If you can do all this u should be at least like gc2 in 1s
Everything below gc
Yeah but i am not perfect myself and barely play the game anymore i dedicated .yself to coaching
Go i belive in ya
when people say dont blame teammates, they mean dont blame teammates for your rank
yes teammates will cause you to lose games, but youll rank up without or with those mistakes
sometimes they make those mistakes because they arent believing much in you, can be the same for you but in the end they are not in fqult for ranks ig thats exactly the same what ero said
Be patient.
Because they think they're supposed to be a higher rank but stuck because of bad teammates or whatever excuse. Or they actually just don't care if the aerial is going to help their team
not to mention lower ranks who think they can do fancy shit in the air typically do it very slow and don't maintain control. which makes it useless at higher ranks where you get challenged sooner.
fennec or octane
Pros prefer fennec overall, but the differences between the two are so minuscule that it is largely irrelevant to anyone below the highest level. Whatever you feel more comfortable on, use that.
@grand holly any tips for getting out of plat ive been hardstuck for 2-3 years

@young wolf add me is he in your lobby
@median sierra It isn't happening
lol I’m getting worse hahah
I don’t have have any more room for epic friends
hard stuck in gold, what do i do?
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.
sure but like how? i thought i was doing those things
any tips for 3s im always hard stuck in just 3s
rank matters*, at diamond, learn how to actually clear a ball without it immediatly going back into center. GC, learn how to abuse backboard
what if solo q tm8s are an issue
i feel like im stuck cause i try to carry and i lose and i play patient and i lose
Sure. Getting from plat to diamond is just about leveling up the basics you already have. For mechanics, practicing your skills in the air and on the ground with shot packs, workshop maps and 1v1. For game sense, practicing 1s and watching pro replays. For pro replays, watching road to gc youtube series at your level is helpful. Overall, playing with the intention of learning and growing will help you propel in the future.
brother. im saying tell us your rank lol.
if your SSL you won't be stuck in diamond. you can always improve. if you think "my teamates" is a valid excuse, don't ask for tips lol
im not ssl nor stuck in diamond lol im gc2-3 stuck in c3 3s
i just need to know what playstyle to get out of champ 3s cause nothing works for me
Anyone down to coach a gold 1? trying to learn aerials and good 50 skills
c3 3s is about where id expect a gc2 in 2s
there isnt a set playstyle, you have to adapt and be able to play all 3 spots relative to your teammate
you cant just be passive or just be aggresive, its both depending on how teammates feel. Go for passing plays and focus on conserving boost on defense
My ground game is adequate but could use some work. Absolutely 0 air skills though
dont agree with that, most people can get the same rank in 3s easily as there 2s rank if you just have a steady team you play with
IF you have a squad yes, however solo queue which is what he does
its usually the case
yes, but if you solo q both i would say c3 to gc1 not gc2, cause thats a big diffrence. Thats my experience though
most gc2s are like c3-gc1 in 3s
however any higher most dont queue ranked 3s as 6mans is better anyway
nobody actually plays 6mans
im p2 in 3s and only p1 in 2s
6mans is ass
Is it harder to rank up in 3s? I’m gc2 in both 2s and 3s and like 40 mmr higher in 3s. It seems about the same to me
for most people it is
im the same tho, im c3 in 3s and 2s
Got to C2 in 2’s 3 seasons ago. Hardstuck C1 since. Been putting in training on many relevant workshop maps and packs. Been playing 1’s in D2. Almost to 2000 hours (200ish to go) and haven’t been back to C2 in 2 seasons. Focusing on defense. Even watching videos on that. Just on par with the skill ceiling haha. Is coaching the only answer at this point?
dm
I know everyone say train train train… screw that.. I’m just gonna learn in game…
Wdym
The settings don’t change from platform to platform
U can just look up a settings guide
Some of the video settings don’t show up on console but u don’t have to worry about that cuz u can’t change them
im hard stuck diamond, im about 1k hours in and feel like i just cant progress idk what to do
win
play for fun
anyone here maybe wanna coach me in 1v1 d3
Defense is always important. I’d focus a little more on applying pressure without committing. On offense don’t give away possession. Also throw in some shots that will hit wall or backboard for your teammate. It will make your opponents awkward. If you do this just make sure you’re rotating fast so that you can either get back on defense if it doesn’t work or apply more offensive pressure if the defense can’t counter.
If you are consistently training and not seeing results, 1 of 3 things is likely happening. You are not training the right things, you are training the right things but in the wrong way, or you holding yourself back mentally, and most likely it’s a combination of all 3.
Could also be struggling to implement it into gameplay but that’s a combination of 2 and 3
If you are training and practicing the right things, implementation is usually very easy.
What’s your play style
Are you keeping control of the ball when on offense?
I’m not sure if I’m qualified to help but I was being coached in a gc1 lobby and I’m c2 and and we were winning most of our games
What the coach was teaching me was to not commit unless it was a threat on net
Especially in the air
Everything is dependent upon you specifically, but from what I’ve seen, an under appreciated at issue at GC1 is boost management. Take a look at your replays and see how you are using boost, and adjust accordingly. I would also just generally look at those replays to self-analyze. Find your mistakes, practice what you’re doing wrong, go into games with the intention of working on those specific issues, and you’ll improve. Replay analysis all the time will be very helpful.
He said my mechanics were definitely good enough I just need to get better at decision making and adapt more to the higher ranked play style
Being accurate on challenges and fast to the ball. Also being able to save shots from awkward positions
Trying to help people is very admirable, but your advice is too specific to your own experience and not general enough to be very helpful to someone. This advice is situational, and only valid if you were doing a replay analysis of someone. I respect you trying to give advice and coach, of course, but be more careful to give out more applicable advice.
I believe it’s good advice. If he already does it then it just means he already knows it’s important. But you are right that I’m not qualified to help him
Everything is good advice except for this, yes. I don’t know which coach told you this but it doesn’t make very much sense, and I would suggest you stop using it in games, if you are.
Take it from me my advice is best your advice is in learning I am pro advice
I think your advice was good generally, but if it’s not applicable, it’s not good.
🤔
Ah okay that makes sense
Woah there big words
My bad. I know it can be hard to comprehend, especially if you’ve played rocket league too long.
anyone else know they can get out of c2 easily if they get a decent mate
Getting a teammate to play with consistently definitely makes it easier, because you can build chemistry and communicate better, but it’s not needed to rank up surely.
Can you explain this to me in dms because I don’t really understand what’s wrong with it. Although I’m about to be driving for a while so I won’t be able talk about it yet
Thoughts about ball chasing in c2?
Who said commit on net
In the games we were playing I was told to be patient and catch the ball after they’d aerial for it. 90% of the time the opponents gave it to me or my teammate. These were low gc1s and high c3s. It sounds like this won’t work higher up but it was working well against the lobbies we were playing in
yh sounds like boosting tbh
On the ground when they counter he said for the guy rotating back should screw up their attack without fully committing while last back shadows
anyone down to coach me? i am rank silver i am tryna become a champ or a diamond
Yep
So say I took a shot on net or missed a flick and they get possession on ground. I would attack the ball to try to get it to my teammate who is shadowing
its usually that the guy who was attacking challanges from behind/side and flick it to the side/corner, this way its easier for the guy behind and the person who cut the attack can easily get boost at the side he flicked the ball to
Yes
I guess I suck at explaining
nah was alright
btw @gray barn u ugly af
got personal very quick lol
i think everything u do can be situational, but this is how it should be in general
Reason?
i literally hate 1s im stuck in 1000-1050 im either on a winning streak or losing streak
got some advices?
just if your mate has other plans, otherwise not rlly
what rank is this? not the best with mmr lol
Around champ I think
c1 mid to high
actually the whole c1 rank
is anyone here a keyboard player
Exactly
most important thing for me at least is being unpredictable, obv besides the basics like kick offs, shadow defense etc.. if u can achieve that your opponent doesnt know whats coming next u will dominate the game, and this can be with nearly everything, with your kick off, with your challanges, with your shots etc. try not to do too many habits, for instance if u always touch the ball first he will know it the nextz time and u are easy to read. I feel like once u can achieve being unpredictable u will also win games against people u might be a bit better with the basics of 1s then u.
Does that work in 2s?
kinda, but u need to be very careful. U might mess up your mate too cause he cant predict u aswell.
hm
depends what rank, i wouldnt say a c1 in 1s is that much inconsistent, and as i mentioned, its a way to play against people that might be a bit better then u, if u play normally there u will loose for sure, with this strat the game is still winable
Yes, send me a DM and remind me, and I will a bit later.
Thanks for who helped me in 1s now I’m d3
anoyone who has any tips to get off c3 and go to gc, i rlly need sum
my kickoffs are good i think because im mostly winning the kickoffs or its going to the site where im looking to and bout the unpredictable ion know im changing my mind while im on the ball so ig thats good
fr
it depends on my opponent like if he has boost or not then ill do a play tha is harder for him to save
why wat rank r u 😭
He’s silver 3
Sounds good, sometimes people just have habits, and then its easier to tell what’s happening next, lets say u play against an opponent and 2 times on offense he carries it on his car and front flicks it, u will asume he will do it next time too right? And thats what i mean with trying that u are not too predictable. Idk about your rank but in higher elo this would get abused a lot.
i mean we all start from somewhere ig
yeh most of my opponents are doing tha aswell because idk why but they are somewhere between gc1 and gc3 in 2s f.e. and they be changin their attacks every time
Yh usually works pretty good. Obv if u also are good in other attack forms then just 1.
can someone help me get better at the game
What’s your rank?
can someone coach d1
d2
I don’t have any off the top of my head but I can send you some later. You could try “shots you shouldn’t miss”. I don’t know the code for it though

👍
Yeah he's probably my favorite player
Can I get a coach I'm silver 3
@signal lintel what rank are you
@steep ice He's gc
oh
@steep ice Can you coach me
idk what rank are you
Silver
can someone coach me im diamond 3
i can probably teach you how to get up to d1 im only c1 tho
im hardstuck
Ok works for me
not for me bruh
in my prime i played scrims and actually made money
@steep ice D1 works for me
it has a special character in it
dm me but i cant help u rn
i cant remember the character
@steep ice I DM you
uh lets see
fr tho
maybe someone in plat or sum that thinks their good
but d3 isn't even good
yeah exactly
actually i have this one account im logged into because my brother was playing on my pc
the epic is XxDarkspinerxX
but its around my rank in 2s
bro i thought gc players were insane until i played scrims against some
game sense gc> mechanic gc
true
like i said this is not my account
2Die4 is like the best scrims player in my region
i think ive played like 1k matches
in 1 season?
but i play a lot of training
most ive gotten was 700 in a season
no 1k total
oh
yeah but that was long ago i dont really play the game anymore
dang
when was the last time you went outside no offense
can someone coach me
can anyone watch one of my replays i need to know what im doing wrong
oh thats good then
i go to gym 1 hour and sports 5 hours a day the rest i play games
Wasn’t it like 800 2 days ago or something?
Ah okay. I have less than 50 probably
How do I look?
Where in rl tracker will it say?
oh i had 700 in 2s only all with the same person
1s i only have like placements
like record and post on yt?
In 2s I have 39 and in 3s I have 41 lmao
silver best rank
how is it even possible to be silver tho
cant win in a top 100 lobby
Both S’s in SSL stand for silver
Silver slicky licker
😋
can someone teach me how to speed flip by chance im getting to the point i think its just my pc holding me back or that cuz everywhere i see it says it could also be your input delay but im not sure
i can musty flick and speed flip
im plat 1
im not even lying
thekid taught me how to these mechanic
wanna show me and explain it if you can then
ok
if ur willing i can shoot you a call in disc and screen share
okk
how do i fix my aerial car control being terribe after a break
Jump in freeplay and fly from net to net trying to throw urself off and then regaining the controll back without hitting any obstacle
anyone able to explain to me how to speed flip (not just showing me how it looks)
damn i've acc never heard that one
ty
What controller you use
ur welcome for anything more you can always dm me
which gamemode
gc1 div 3
What about 1v1
pretty much
i am not lounching the game today its 2 am im just chilling
What’s your 1s rank tho
Can somebody teach me the basics of airroll
i'llbprobably drop one if i can't get unwashed
Can somebody teach me the basics of airroll
standard airoll or directional?
Directional
xbox elite controller
Can somebody teach me the basics of airroll
stop reposting im replying it takes time
Shot packing is the best way to get back into form after a break always.
so directionall airroll is mainly used to make a very quick adjustments in car facing positioning it works the best if composed with a very fast paced gameplay. left directionall airroll as the names say will turn your car to the left seemingly like standard airroll does but just a tad better, and smoother, to truly learn the directional airroll controll you need to practice a lot of simple car aerial controll just using the directionall. its best if you do it in steps and not all at once. i suggest you do this : Jump in freeplay and fly from net to net trying to throw urself off and then regaining the controll back without hitting any obstacle only using directionall airroll
can someone help me get better
what rank is u also go dms
pc or console?
rank?and gm
Aight . i could show you a very easy method to learn it
Directional air roll is used for anything air roll just like the air roll button. There are minute differences between the two. This video is a good reference for drills to practice air roll: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YtxID9OgRQ
@fleet knoll
that guy knows better
can you voice chat?
i can write a huge ass essay xP
Dude your copying me you know that was my coaching advice😡😡
Shhhhhh....
Where’d your username originate from
Salty
Very long story
need coach c1
man dumped me too look for other coaches
well i thought you would dip after i had to to go fr ngl but if your down rn im chill
Nah don’t take coaching advice from @lapis compass his highest rank was champ 3
true fr good advice ima start using it
No problem 😀
yeah u welcome
is top top 50 classed as semi pro
Semi-pro is classified as just below RLCS
flip resets
You need to adjust your speed to different ranks you play at. You are likely playing too quickly for the lower level.
Slow down.
yeah fake kickoff or delay
If they are too slow then hit the side of the ball on your speed kickoff
watch musty’s tutorial he tells you how @night wraith
how big is it?
Ok so I’m a gc 2 peak and I’m playing against 2 Gc 2 peaks but I have a c2 as my tm8. How should I play if I want any chance at beating them
Can someone teach me how to air dribble
I can get the setup I just can’t jump off and hit the ball
Is this a show match? You have no chances.
It’s for my high school league
Teach the C2 how to play the game at a GC2 level is a good start.
Yea I’m thinking it’s a swift L but I want to know if there’s a certain way I should play
Well it’s tomorrow so I guess we just gonna have to wing it
play off him rather than how you normally would he wont be able to keep up with yous so whatever he does you need to try and make do with it and get back earlier than you should more often than not they will get past him
You should be playing relatively passive hoping that they make a mistake and overextend. Your only chance to win is to capitalize on mistakes.
Yea that’s what I’m gonna hope for, it is a lan environment so I hope that makes them more nervous
I can let you know tomorrow how it went if you want
anyone help me learn air dribblinf
Show him how to challenge to your advantage. Meaning, force him into a 1st man position to best help you thrive. Have him throw himself at the ball to give you possession and play from there.
can somebody help me with keeping the ball on my car when doing a 360 https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/1ORHhB_tp6uSRs/d1337dNV2ipT?invite=cr-MSxWN2csMjAwOTYwMDczLA
can anyone coach me im c1
Um champ1?
no gc 1
👍
can anyone help with what i do after i get the reset. i mean like when ever i get it i kinda just fall and im just lost with it
oh my god
i can cieling shot
i can double tap
i can sometimes musty
WHY THE HELL CANT I DO A CIELING SHOT DOUBLE TAP MUSTY
Since your able to do all the other things u just gotta be faster ig.
i think thats it
i need to get under the ball for a musty faster
Yep.
when i do go into the musty and hit it right it usually goes into the goal
instead of the backboard
then focus on the angle more.
Thats what i did and i love it, honestly keybinds are all prefrences
Try it out see if you like it, if not change it back
alright what should i do to get used to it
also should i make mine rb siince i speed flip with my right airoll
only real way is time
I wouldn’t immediatly hop in ranked or anything
Try free play/cas for a bit at least like 5-10 match
If you still hate it, it’s prob not for you
What do you use for airels? Right air roll or left?
air roll left gang 😈😈💯
hey, i just joined for second opinions, im diamond 2s after coming back to rl. im using a ps4 controller and my boost as always been square and jump is X. i am perfecting my speed flips for kickoffs but i cant do them consistently because my thumb has to simultaneously double tap X while boosting. this is the only mechanic that my thumb is simply not fast and consistent enough for. should i move my boost button to something like R1 and relearn my muscle memory? idk how long and aids thats going to be so im asking here lmao
yes definetly.
when i changed my settings it wasnt that hard but i was gold at that moment
How do I stop missing open nets
flip resets and wall dashes
I can’t do that
How can I get better at wall to air dribble or wall to hitting the ball while it's in the air
who’s that
character from league of legends, your username is teemolunchbox so i asked lol
I never played league
keep it that way
@ruby ice ^ original message
do u use the tip of ur thumb for square to boost and push ur thumb out were it bends to press x?
thats why I do and its most comfortable and viable
just incase no one responds, im going to answer and say that wall to air touches are just putting in the practice. thats one of the first mechanics i learned and it took a lot of practice before my touches were consistent and clean. i used "wall to air dribble" custom practice setup
I can ground dribble pretty decent in my opinion, now wanna work for air
And mabye work on flicks
yea thats exactly how ive always done it. ive never had a problem with any mechanics except for speedflips. they just arent consistent because my thumb doesnt always move comfortably like i want it to
I think speedflips were the first thing I learned
i skipped allat and went straight to air dribbles tbh 💀
actually i should say, its not uncomfortable, its like my thumb isnt always fast for that specific motion? like if i try to do that motion of holding square and spamming X with my thumb at the same time sometimes my thumb just stops moving and locks up for a 10th of a second
maybe try practicing the movement without boost, but keep ur thumb in the position like u were going to
I dont think u should change up all ur binds its worth trying to practice a bit first
What's ur camera settings?
yea i probably watched every video that existed about air dribbles, it really is just about practicing it, rather than learning how to do it. same goes for really any mechanic imo
I think I have probably a random camera setup
mine is pretty much the same as any of the ones you find here
i linked that because pro player camera settings are all very similar to eachother
I only watch one pro, we'll I stopped about 6 months ago bc I don't know why tbh
well any good camera settings is going to be similar as any pros imo, because theyve all gravitated towards similar settings. i would just pick a setup and slightly change it to how you like it
I have my distance at 400 💀
💀 💀 i definitely think that is hindering your air dribble performance
Is there any pro player that doesn't have the pov maxed?
monkey moon
I did it for fun it's not bad tho
I don't think there is tbh
monkey moon plays 109
What are the most important mechanics to learn in silver/gold
actually hitting the ball
Is swivel speed and transition speed even important, like can it effect my playing?
technically it does but honestly no
It’s quite important honestly
How?
it helps lock on to stuff quicker
Like for transition speed if u have it really low, it will take a few seconds to lock on to the ball,
With a high transition, it will lock their immediately letting you focus and see the feild a little quicker
Besides that really
@sleek linden wanna take a look at my new camera settings?
I think he got off
much much less than a few seconds
true its really not crazy but it does help
guys i am platinum how can i get to diamond even gold in 1v1s crush me
We can do some custom 1v1, I'm at around gold or Plat
@peak kraken
ok
What's ur epic
add me O Ondra._
just train for 2 days
I'm in d2 div 3 with absolutely no mechanics besides basic dribbles and power shots. What would be the best way to grind mechanics? Would playing a lot of 1v1 help?
(I'm really dependent on my teammates and on communication, mostly working off of good plays and rotation. If there's good comms I can ball out and even reach d3, maybe even c1, but I struggle in solo queue most of the time)
How do i get out of champ 2? What is the most important mechanics to know. I already got a good teammate
@tight violet If you want I can play some 2s or 3s with you and try to help
Yes that would certianly be helpful!
Although I can't really get on RL until like 4 hours later
What time is it for you?
5:21 a.m
Oh
well yeah I can play from around 9:30 AM your time till somewhere in midday for you
hmm
C2 2s
practice predicting it on training packs
can you recommend any training packs
I got 2 that i use if ur c or higer
gimme i want
Lemme see em too
actually im gold....
Or code
But im a way rn i Will message u later then
alr
Bruh
Are any of you silver 3
No
any gameplay tips for gold 3
i know powershots i am decent at dribbling and i hit 90 precent of the aerials
I was a plat 3 before quitting rocket league
can someone help me with speed flips/flicks
rn i am plat 1 div 4 in 2s but i was referring at 3v3 cuz i play most of the time rn cuz of my 2 friends
i think ik how to do them jsut i can never hit them at kickoffs in real matches that's what i need help with
so i am partially washed up
i can 100% "triple flip reset" im gold 2
show me
dms
how do you air dribble
It’s best to learn aerial car control first. To practice that look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YtxID9OgRQ After that you’ll want to look up a tutorial, as it’s best to have a visual for these kinds of mechanics.
ty
im hardstuck plat any tips on how to get out?
Plat: get better at defending and mastering stuff you learned in gold. Honestly stop trying to aerial for every ball, use your judgement to decide if you should aerial or not. Learn backpost rotations and hitting the ball off backboard. Should be said that dont go for air dribbles or ceiling shots idc if you are consistent with them. Playing smart and reading the play will allow you to rank up
any gc or ssl in 1s here? trynna do some privates and learn
