[crystal cliff]

you cant do any 🔥

didnt ask

ur like d3 bro

i can smell it

even worse tbh

ur peak is plat 2 i just checked

theres no way you just tried flexing champ

bro is so scared i found his main acc

ong

hit gc 🔥

c2 peak 🔥

grand champion

and id just name a mech you can do anyway

[deep pasture]

Ure not under the ball enough. U may be lingering on its side without realizing. If u arent dizzy, u arent doing it right. Get under it to where ur camera starts switching on u. Then hone in that stability

O well its not uncommon for c2s to aerial but cant air dribble

[vernal trench]

help me improve

[drowsy folio]

gc not even a flex anymore tbf

[pure patio]

this season, kinda got harder than last 3 seasons

[north totem]

Can some1 help me figure out what to do after i get the flip reset

[cyan sage]

hit the ball

[north totem]

most helpful response ive gotten all day

[cyan sage]

yw

[north totem]

but like how hit the the ball??

[cyan sage]

however you can 😭

it depends on how you get the reset tbh

[north totem]

fair enough

tyty

[umbral crag]

no

[coarse kernel]

try to stay under the ball but not too close to the ground

[frigid pelican]

Hello guys

i'm new here

[nocturne breach]

whatever you want

[nocturne breach]

make contact to the ball with your car by using the flip

[nocturne breach]

is the same

[orchid owl]

hit gccccc. I’m done forever

@graceful ice yes

@nocturne breach no

[vocal pagoda]

can someone please give me some tips?? ive been hovering around plat 1 div 3-4 for days now in 1v1s what are some mistakes i might be making??

[orchid owl]

@vocal pagoda you are playing ones

[sharp elbow]

lol

[nocturne breach]

yes

[nocturne breach]

watch your replays

[keen pumice]

In your games, are they very high score like 8-10?

If so, practice shadow defence as a plat shouldnt be making that many goals against someone who is actually trying to win

If u feel like u arent doing good offensive plays, practice flicks

Doesnt need to be anything fancy like you see the pros and ytbrs do, just a simple flick

Another thing which is good to learn early is the importance of small pads. Not saying to ignore big pads but if u already have over 40, dont go out of your way to get more

Hope this helps

[keen pumice]

Indeed. All the high gcs who are now in 1500 dont make it easy

Plus, the skill ceiling is always raising, its always going to be harder (unless the good players quit)

[nocturne breach]

it has always been this way

[keen pumice]

The last 2 seasons have been worse

[nocturne breach]

i didnt notice any difference

[keen pumice]

Whats your rank?

[nocturne breach]

c3

[keen pumice]

Maybe my friends are just rly unlucky

[nocturne breach]

you mean s11 was hard?

[keen pumice]

Idk, Im gc3 but my friends did complain

[nocturne breach]

i play gc peaks every game, but i dont see the difference between them and normal c3s tbh, is just that they are washed

so basically still normal champs

[keen pumice]

My struggle now is in 3s soloq. I always get paired up with ppl queuing with their c2 friends

[nocturne breach]

lol F

[nocturne breach]

ah yes, once i had a guy in team that was gc1 in 3s and queue'd with a d2 💀

[keen pumice]

<1500 = c2, c3 tbf

And thats where the struggle and complains may come from

Its the same in 1s

From d3 to gc2 is the same skill level

Sometimes u get a damn good 2s ssl in 1s or a gc1

[nocturne breach]

lmao, why it is so true

i 1v1'd a c3 in 1s and it was far easier than some c1s in 1s

but honestly the mmr difference is not that high

gc1 -> gc2 is like 50 mmr in 1s

[keen pumice]

Yeah

[nocturne breach]

some d3 in 1s are really really bad

meanwhile you could also get a d3 that completely anihilate you

[keen pumice]

I wont forget the day I got clipped by a d2

[nocturne breach]

1s is just built different fr

[keen pumice]

In a gc2 lobby

2s

He whiffed everything

But u give them 100 boost and a free airdribble and bro pulls a triple flip reset double tap

[nocturne breach]

pro

i do feel like that

i whiff every ball, but if you give me a free setup, prepare your crucifix and say every prayer you know 🗿

[keen pumice]

Mean while, I can maybe hit a flip reset if Im feeling confident

[nocturne breach]

lmao, but at least u are gc2

i am like a gold stuck in c3 because of my mechs

[keen pumice]

Idk how I got to 1700

[nocturne breach]

i am held hostage here by my teammates, they dont want to let me go back to gold

[nocturne breach]

with talent

[keen pumice]

Just too many hours Ig

After 2k hours, if I was still in champ, Id be sad

[nocturne breach]

why did you insult me 🗿

[sullen hollow]

Any tips for champ 1-2?

[keen pumice]

Oops

[nocturne breach]

but double that amount of hours

[keen pumice]

1s, 2s or 3s?

[sullen hollow]

2s

[nocturne breach]

backpost rotation, dont whiff the ball, avoid double commits, make the ball go where you want it to, catch the ball, dont roll the ball to the opponents, practice hitting open nets

[keen pumice]

Be passive. If your tm8 is a chaser, let him do his thing

[nocturne breach]

and then he will complain that you are not doing anything and he's going to be on "full focus, fast lose" mode

certified champ moment

[sullen hollow]

Allright

[keen pumice]

Thats why I have my chat off

[sullen hollow]

I made a ss so i can find the tips back

[lucid tartan]

Hey

[nocturne breach]

chad

[lucid tartan]

I want a teacher

[sullen hollow]

And any tips for double flip resets?

Im tryna learn them for fun

[nocturne breach]

learn a type of double reset first, and practice it

[keen pumice]

Dont learn flip resets

[nocturne breach]

there are too many ways to do double resets

[sullen hollow]

I didnt use air mechanics to get to champ, dw

[nocturne breach]

flip cancel, stall and maktuf are the most common

murie reset is also somewhat easier

[keen pumice]

If u are kbm, stall is by far the easiest

[nocturne breach]

idk about front flip reset tho

[sullen hollow]

I play on controller

[nocturne breach]

kbm warriors assemble

[sullen hollow]

Im trying to learn the basic double flip reset

[keen pumice]

Hands are too tiny to use a controller

[nocturne breach]

there's no such a thing as basic, there are many types of multiple flip resets

[keen pumice]

Properly

[sullen hollow]

I mean the one that you flip in the ball

[nocturne breach]

there are at least 4 types where you flip into the ball

[daring copper]

Huh XD?

[sullen hollow]

:/

[keen pumice]

In 1s it is

[daring copper]

No it's not lmao

[keen pumice]

Yes it is...

U get ssls both in c2 and gc in 1s

[daring copper]

You're dumb if you believe that

[keen pumice]

Im dumb for looking at numbers uh

Btw, I also play the game

And Ive been in both ranks

[daring copper]

Strange cuz I've never faced an ssl before

[keen pumice]

U just got lucky then

[daring copper]

And d3 is easy af

[keen pumice]

D3 to c1 is easier yeah, I exxagerated

But from c2 to gc2

[nocturne breach]

that's like saying you dont believe in winning in lotto just because you havent won, but others did

[daring copper]

Hmm idk I'm c2 rn so I could beat a gc2?

Idk bout that

[keen pumice]

U prob have played ppl who used to be gc2

And are struggling to get back up

[daring copper]

Nah I check there trackers usually it's c3-gc1s in c2 1s

[keen pumice]

Im gc1 and Ive won vs gc2s and lost to c2s (1s ranks)

For example

[cyan sage]

If I’m d3 in 1s what rank should I be in 2s and 3s

[keen pumice]

Good for u that got lucky but saying that it doesnt happen, its wrong and dumb

[keen pumice]

The avg is c2-c3

[cyan sage]

So I’m where I should be

Cuz I’m c2 in 2s and c1 in 3s

[daring copper]

But theres definitely a skill difference between a c2 and a gc2 ranks exist for a reason

I'd get clapped by a gc2 in 1s

[sullen hollow]

Want to know smt funny guys?

[cyan sage]

What if I was c1 in 1s what should I be in the other 2 modes

[keen pumice]

Im gonna repeat myself. U can get either a ssl or a c2 when playing 1s from the range of c2 to gc2

[daring copper]

An ssl in gc2 1s would beat a ssl in c2 1s pretty easily mate

[keen pumice]

Why am I saying this? Cuz Ive played over 100 matches to know much

[keen pumice]

A c2 in 1s could be ssl in 2s, thats what I mean

And that happens a lot

[daring copper]

Not a lot it's rare

Extremely

[keen pumice]

Stop arguing for the sake of arguing. I know tf Im talking about lmao

[sullen hollow]

I am hardstuck dia 3 and yesterday a guy sent me a dm and wanted to play. Me not knowing hes c2. So we went in the game and i asked for his rank and he said hes c2. It ended up me carrying him. He even called me a smurf

[cyan sage]

Can someone tell me what I need to work on to push from c2 to c3 in 2s

[daring copper]

Debatable

[sullen hollow]

And he Said im champ 1-2

[cyan sage]

I’m struggling to grind back to c3 where I peak 1340 last season

I peaked 1270 this season and I’m struggling to keep 1200

[sullen hollow]

So now i dont have to play with them shitty dia 3 tm8s

[cyan sage]

Also I should solo q 3s or play with a team

[keen pumice]

Its not debatable. U are just not getting my point and I wont lose more time explaining when u are the only one who didnt understand

[daring copper]

Ssl tags means nothing anyways

[cyan sage]

Because I solo q to c2 last season in 3s and I think I could’ve hit c3

[daring copper]

I see ssl tags that are gc1

Those are the c2 1s players most likely

[nocturne breach]

can anyone coach me to gc2 from c3? i am a mid tier freestyler, i mostly need tips from analysis replays

[cyan sage]

Same could someone coach me as well

I really want to hit gc in any mode

Preferably 2s or 1s

[daring copper]

Grind game out

All it takes

[cyan sage]

It’s so hard bro

[daring copper]

Put in at least 2k hours

[minor juniper]

Is it possible to do speed flip with directional airoll

[cyan sage]

I don’t even know how many hours I have in total combined pc and ps4

But I currently have like 1.3k on pc

And I’ve only peaked c3

[daring copper]

What's your rank

Oh

[cyan sage]

C2 average I would say

But c3 peak

[nocturne breach]

YES

[daring copper]

Do u play 1s

It's super helpful

[cyan sage]

Sometimes bro

I grinded 1s for a bit and went from p2 to d3

[daring copper]

What's your 1s rank

Oh

[minor juniper]

Can you see any diffrence between directional speed flip and normal speedflip

[cyan sage]

But I used to be c1 in 1s a few seasons ago

[nocturne breach]

idk, i only do it with directional

[daring copper]

Idrk tbh I just grinded the game and I got gc

[minor juniper]

And u can do musty speedflip training pack?

[cyan sage]

I don’t want to say my teammates holding back but sometimes when I just get the golden teammate and I party up with them we have a good streak together

[minor juniper]

And u can do musty speedflip training pack?

[cyan sage]

That’s why I peaked 1270 this season because I partied up with this good teammate

[daring copper]

Dw bro your tm8s aren't holding u back haha trust me

[cyan sage]

But last season I grinded all the way up to 1340 all by myself solo q

[nocturne breach]

havent tried

[daring copper]

I get an account to gc easily

[cyan sage]

I just don’t get what I can do to reach peak again

Like I’m doing the same things I would’ve done when I was c3

[daring copper]

Play smart

Most people in c2 aren't very smart I've noticed

[cyan sage]

Ye tbh bro I just monkey my way

That’s how I got to c3 I just monkey

[nocturne breach]

maybe thats the problem

[daring copper]

Fr people are monkeys in gc as well

[cyan sage]

When I started playing 1s again I monkey at the start but I started to slow down and played smarter

That’s how I went from p2 to d3

But I don’t know the edge that I need to push to c1 again in 1s

[daring copper]

I really don't know what I do that makes me better than a c2 or c3 i kinda just drive around the map and score goals

[cyan sage]

I’ve been playing a lot of 3s lately cuz of rlcs

[daring copper]

In 1s just wait for them to overcommit

[cyan sage]

Last quals I played with my team second game we played against a pro team and we were shitting ourselves

First game against them was rough but second game we managed to tie with them for most of the game but still lost

If I’m being honest we only scored against them because they did slight mistakes like back flipping

I don’t know bro I just felt like I was peaking when I played against them

[weak plover]

Hello guys

[pure moat]

please someone help me,How do i deal with ballchasers they just smash the ball as hard as they can everywhere and it always turns into a goal

[pallid haven]

Hi, I’m just looking for people to play rocket league with, maybe make some new friends I don’t do competitions, I just play for fun.

[nocturne breach]

let them do their thing

or better said, let them cook

[keen pumice]

As tm8s or opponents?

[cyan sage]

Can i play with somebody rocket league

[keen pumice]

#looking-for-group

[rare kayak]

lf a free coach, currently gc but feel like I am lacking something very important and don't know what

[nocturne breach]

positioning?

[rare kayak]

could be

also feel like my mechnical skill is weak, not the advanced stuff like resets but just having good car control and dribbling

[nocturne breach]

can u give an example

[rare kayak]

wym? as in doing a good flip consitent on dribbling for example?

[nocturne breach]

do you have mechanical failures? what do you want to do but cant

[keen anchor]

It could be skill

[rare kayak]

Even as simple as doing a small redirect towards the goal or double tapping.

or when I jump of the backboard to save the ball I can't control my car correctly sometimes and have a shit hit

[nocturne breach]

you probably have to do a lot of training packs

there are many for redirects, double taps and other stuff

[cyan sage]

how do i half flip

[nocturne breach]

double tap playground is prob the best

[nocturne breach]

cancel the backflip and then turn your car

[cyan sage]

clap clap very understandable

[nocturne breach]

np, you are welcome

what it is

[cyan sage]

any tips or anything on how to speed flip ? Tag me or dm me so i can see the message back please!

[nocturne breach]

practice till you get it

[sturdy wyvern]

need a couch kbm

[nocturne breach]

oh my god i almost hit ground breezy corner redirect into a psycho but it hit the ceiling unfortunately

[nocturne breach]

for what?

[sturdy wyvern]

literally everything, i didnt play in a while

[nocturne breach]

just do some freeplay and you will get used to it

[shrewd lintel]

Hey guys, I just came back after about 2 years, I peaked at C3 but I’ve never used auto air roll, always manual. Is auto air roll something I need to get past my rank wall?

[nocturne breach]

no

[sturdy wyvern]

not enough to improve tho

[shrewd lintel]

Thanks Arii!

[nocturne breach]

depends on what you want to do

[nocturne breach]

np, it helps, but is not needed

consistency is far better in ranked

[cyan sage]

thanks. so helpful🤣🤣🤣

[shrewd lintel]

For sure, the way I have my keybinds, it’s just impossible to switch, I’ve worked on new ones for days and can’t get it

[nocturne breach]

i dont know what you want us to tell you, speedflip is one of the easiest mechanics in rl

it wont take you longer than 1 or 2 days of constant practice

[cyan sage]

arguable

[shrewd lintel]

X is jump, A is boost, right bumper is camera view

[keen anchor]

It's hard to do consistently but easy to learn

[sturdy wyvern]

hmm lets say flip reset

[nocturne breach]

keep trying new keybinds till you get comfortable, u can also watch pro's keybinds

[nocturne breach]

speedflip is not really needed most of the time

[cyan sage]

it’s helpful🤣

[keen anchor]

True u can get gc without speedflips

[keen anchor]

Kinda it's more helpful in 1s than 2s

[nocturne breach]

is the opposite

[keen anchor]

No

[nocturne breach]

in 1s if you go against kick off guru he'll counter your speed flips

[keen anchor]

guru?

[nocturne breach]

and you cant do them every time

[nocturne breach]

kick off masters lol

i can counter speedflip with delay and score if i get it right

[keen anchor]

No one is a kick off master in diamond or champ

It helped me rank up in 1s anyways

[nocturne breach]

what is your rank

[nocturne breach]

yes, but think about it this way

every kick off can be countered

[cyan sage]

d2

[nocturne breach]

speedflip is good, but also has easy counters if u arent paying attention

[keen anchor]

Most people don't try to counter it tho

They just speedflip themselves

Even pros mostly speedflip on kickoffs

[untold escarp]

delay kickoff every ball

takes no mechs gg

[nocturne breach]

i think you are better only with frontflip kick off

[untold escarp]

this is troll, don't do that

[nocturne breach]

i do that

[cyan sage]

i don’t front flip on kickoff ?🤣🤣

[untold escarp]

@cyan sage don't worry about getting to the ball too quickly just make sure your 50 is good

[nocturne breach]

then what you do

[untold escarp]

barrel roll it out onto a boost and follow or hit it corner for a tm8

[keen anchor]

You should try to get there first

[cyan sage]

i side flip mafaka

[untold escarp]

in diamond ur just gonna fuck it up when going to the ball fast so not really

[cyan sage]

🤣😭

[keen anchor]

Getting there first is important

[untold escarp]

no it isn't

[keen anchor]

You'll most likely win kickoff

[cyan sage]

cap

[untold escarp]

what rank does this information come from

[keen anchor]

Yes it is 😄

[untold escarp]

or are you trolling

[cyan sage]

go late and counter that every time and i’d win it🤣

[keen anchor]

No lol why would every pro use the fastest flip on kickoff?

[cyan sage]

bc they 50?

[keen anchor]

Cuz they're trying to get there first

[untold escarp]

HAHAHAHAHAH

[cyan sage]

bruh

[untold escarp]

do you know how 3s kickoffs work

[keen anchor]

Do you think driving forwards without flipping is a good kickoff?

[untold escarp]

who the hell said that, stop dodging

do you know how 3s kickoffs should work

[near prism]

Im barely plat 1 what should I train to get to diamond

[woeful thunder]

A front flip kickoff with a good 50 can be a the same as speed flip kickoff with decent 50

[keen anchor]

Who tf plays 3s bro

[untold escarp]

you quoted 3s

[keen anchor]

No

[woeful thunder]

Already know bro is a low rank saying who plays threes

[untold escarp]

don't take advice from this guy please

🙏

[keen anchor]

What's your rank then lol

[untold escarp]

peaked at gc2, back to grinding now

[keen anchor]

Rn i mean

[untold escarp]

i'm not the best but i at least know how the game works

[near prism]

Wow thanks for the advice everyone

[untold escarp]

currently gc1 grinding back up

[keen anchor]

Same here

[untold escarp]

you need better knowledge to climb broski

that's bad ball from a gc1

[keen anchor]

What that speedflip is a good kickoff?

Oh mb

Silly me

You should never speedflip on your kickoff

Even though every pro does it

I'm so dumb

[untold escarp]

speedflip is a good kickoff if you can do it properly, consistently, and know how to 50

you're talking to a diamond who doesn't know how to do any of that because they can't which is fine!

no, they shouldn't be speedflipping because i'd unironically be surprised if they can do any of that

pros frequently speedflip and then delay after at least from what i've seen in 1s for some reason it's not like they speedflip brainlessly and see what happens

objectively saying "speedflip good" is technically correct but there's much more to it

and it's defo not good for someone who is like diamond

in diamond you can just 50 good once you're not too slow and you're chilling because people aren't that quick nor consistent so it's safer with better results

personally my speedflip lowkey sucks

i just diagonal flip full boosting and delay / wavedash and go for boost especially in 1s

i've just realised writing it out makes it sound a lot deeper than it is

i do agree w/ this

[frank pebble]

can anyone help tp train wall dribbles

[main hawk]

are you able to speedflip

diagonal flip isn't a speed flip

[untold escarp]

i know fundamentally how they work i just don't really use them

[untold escarp]

yeah i know

[main hawk]

I use them in my games

[untold escarp]

they're fast enough on most kickoffs especially if i'm partying qu'ing since i drop the ball back corner boost usually

[main hawk]

practiced using mustys training pack

[untold escarp]

i genuinely used that pack for a week straight and never got them down

that's a fairly precise pack to my knowledge?

[main hawk]

There's a different way to do it if your on controller

[untold escarp]

but i still just didn't fw it

[main hawk]

hold directional air roll right/left

press forward, flip

then flip cancel

[main hawk]

combined

DAR with holding up should corner flip

[untold escarp]

it's timing it on the controller not how they work that gets me

like i quite frankly do not click the buttons right

[pure moat]

please help im on an 11 loss streak

i dont know what im doing wrong

[severe mulch]

Can anyone please look at my replays and tell me my mistakes, idk wtf im doing wrong some games i do so good others i fumble so fucking bad

[cyan sage]

Hey I am looking for a high ranked or experienced coach to help me out, anyone willing to help me give some tips and critiques

[flat mist]

can anyone give me advice I’m g2

[clear otter]

Anyone available to coach me?

Im quite bad as a bronze.

[fast gate]

If your motivated to get better, I can help you improve. I'm not on ATM but I will be in about 4h from now.

[grizzled cosmos]

yo can someone coach me?

[severe mulch]

plat 3, almost diamond i really need help man

[signal lintel]

It's not, you don't need nearly a perfect speedflip to hit the ball. But you have to wait part of a second to let your car land before starting each attempt.

[untold escarp]

yeah I know the car landing thingy - if that wasn't a precise pack then i am truly fucked

to be fair it's not something i've practiced outside of that week

because it just isn't something i bother using

[signal lintel]

It takes longer than a week unless you really grind a lot of hours. Don't worry about it, you're probably just timing one thing wrong or inconsistent. It's worth learning tho. If you want to send me a clip of your practice I can probably tell you what's wrong

[karmic wedge]

who is gc?

[fast gate]

11/10 advice

Gc doesn't exist

[karmic wedge]

bad...

[signal lintel]

Replay analysis can't help with playing inconsistently

[karmic wedge]

want to play 1vs1 against gc

.

try my skills even though l am d3 in 1vs1

[fast gate]

Y gc and not some other rank?

[signal lintel]

True

[karmic wedge]

yh, thats the catch bro, playing against really hight rank increas your skills

[fast gate]

Tbh it's probably not gonna look much different 2-10 if it's a c2 1-10 gc...

[karmic wedge]

too much hate from u all...

what ranks r u then?

[fast gate]

If you play a gc u probably won't even get the ball so how are you going to improve from that

[karmic wedge]

half true, yh

[signal lintel]

D3 vs C2 is a reasonable match. D3 vs GC1 is a stretch, it could help to do like a couple times to see what they do but it isn't good practice

[karmic wedge]

hhh

[fast gate]

...

[karmic wedge]

🤧

[fast gate]

Ggs

[signal lintel]

Can someone translate this please

[karmic wedge]

dias r crazy

[signal lintel]

Oh I'm very sorry to hear that then

[karmic wedge]

1

[fast gate]

Tbh you could just drop you cas mmr if you wanna get shit on by a gc in 1s

[signal lintel]

There's no way diamond is average in any mode other than maybe rumble

[karmic wedge]

crazy in the meaning that dias rjumping between d2 n d3 all the time

[signal lintel]

It's normally p2/p3 for 2s

[fast gate]

I thought it was d2 lol

[signal lintel]

Nah they have been managing it when new seasons start over the past year

Which is pissing off a lot of people that think only their rank is going down lol

[fast gate]

It's low d1

Atm

P3 and lower makes up 44%

D1+makes up 55 ish

Sum like that

[signal lintel]

Well they straight up decreased people's MMR by a lot a year ago, but people lost their minds and they actually undid most of that. But the soft resets when seasons start have been different since then, from what I've heard. I don't know the specifics and don't really play ranked myself.

They are successfully managing the inflation tho

[fast gate]

S11 they dropped everyone by 100+mmr and ppl didn't like it so I think there doing it every other season now.

[signal lintel]

Yeah they did some weird stuff to make ranks in different modes have more similar distributions

Which I kinda like

[fast gate]

Rumbles still free lol

[signal lintel]

Like in 1s they pushed everyone towards C1/C2 from both directions. People with lower 1s ranks actually gained MMR when the season started

Understandable

Just get good 😔

[fast gate]

I already know drop shots gonna be so sweaty when they put it back.

[frank pebble]

best map to practice walls shots?

[fast gate]

I didn't think you were capable of giving even better advice 12/10

[nocturne breach]

real

[nocturne breach]

dont get me started 😩

it was so difficult going against sweaty ssls

playing dropshot like they bet their house on that specific match

now to mention the top 100 ssl dropshot players that went on alts because they couldnt find games in their rank

and they were clapping my cheeks in c3-gc1 💀

is a cursed mode

[nocturne breach]

honestly i think now is easier to grind 1s compared to previous seasons

[nocturne breach]

it was W move

[fast gate]

In the long run yeah although at the beginning of the season sometimes the match making was broken.

[nocturne breach]

honestly i like running into high ranks

is better experience

lowkey i hope i go against people on alts in my ranked games

i might be a special case

[fast gate]

It was also like 1500 in a d1 lobby

[nocturne breach]

💀

[fast gate]

I play naw so maybe I'm just special.

[lime obsidian]

i need someone to help me

i got to champ 2, but then tilt q'd all the way down to low c1

the lower i go, the harder it becomes

now im d3

looking for a coach, not for a group

so dont mute

[fast gate]

Take a 15 min break ever 5 games

💀

[lime obsidian]

ive lost around 200mmr

[fast gate]

If you stopped losing you wouldn't have.

[lime obsidian]

yea

its bad bro. if u say youre bad to me, ill legit be hoolding back tears

my amtes r so toxic

i got a warning fgor writing here

someone said i should write here??

[signal lintel]

You don't seem very confident about being better than D3. But if you solo queued to C2 then you should be

[nocturne breach]

you are ..

very good for d2

[nocturne breach]

every rank is like that

[cyan sage]

can I have advice on how to get better I've not played my 1s placement yet but I'm gold in hoops and rumble

[signal lintel]

What 1s rank were you last season?

[cyan sage]

this is first season in a while I just got a ps5

I switched from xbox

but I think I was gold

[signal lintel]

Ok so play a lot of 1s to get into it

[cyan sage]

casual or competitive

[signal lintel]

Competitive. You don't have to care about your rank, just use competitive to get better matches

[lime obsidian]

???

[cyan sage]

ok thanks so much man your a real helper

[signal lintel]

👍

[lime obsidian]

r u talking to me?

[signal lintel]

Yes

[lime obsidian]

y would i be confident being in d3

how can i be so bad i lose 200 mmr in 1 sitting

[signal lintel]

Exactly

You are acting like D3 is your peak

Maybe getting to C2 was just lucky then. But I doubt it. You shouldn't think that you are worse just because you lost games

[lime obsidian]

😭

its so ahrd to win

the more i fall the harder it is

d3 but im almost c1 again

[finite moth]

[clear otter]

Anyone able to teach me how to air dribble or get batter/both?

[woeful thunder]

I use default except air roll right and left are binded to rb lb and power slide from x to lb

It got me to gc2 so idk

[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

[woeful thunder]

We did not need to yap that much

[clear otter]

ill send u a vid for tips

[signal lintel]

Off unless you have screen tearing issues that you can't stand

👍

[hushed dust]

Why cant i trade?

forever?

or temp?

[orchid owl]

@clear otter hey don’t read all that guy said

[clear otter]

Why?

[orchid owl]

just fewther your boost when coming off the wall, up to the ball, then carry it

It’s that simple, touch nose to underside of ball to carry

[clear otter]

doesnt really help

[orchid owl]

FEATHER YOUR BOOST

FEATHER YOUR BOOST LISTEN TO ME LO

[clear otter]

what does feather ur boost mean?

[orchid owl]

tap tap tap

[clear otter]

oh

[orchid owl]

yes but it makes it

Way fuckin easier

[clear otter]

anyone able to coach me though-

[orchid owl]

To learn lol

I’ll do it rn

[opal vapor]

who rep

whoever did, learn to play

[main hawk]

could anyone coach me to tell me what I'm doing wrong (semi mechanical plat)

im

ik I need a coach lol

[sterile thunder]

Feather boost means tapping or lightly boosting. It help because when you air dibble you wanna match the speed of the ball, but when you hold it down, you're always going to be accelerating and it will be harder to control and stay under the ball

[sterile thunder]

first mistake, going for mechanics in plat.

btw @clear otter there's no point of learning air dribbles when you're under champ or d3 because you need to understand how your car works and moves first and when you try learning mechanics before you fully understand how you're car works and how to control it.
It's just not going to be effective

tell me and explain why

mhm

why?

[woeful thunder]

learning advanced mechanics helps with learning that car control

[sterile thunder]

i just wanna know why im wrong

[woeful thunder]

maybe not as fast

[frank pebble]

i did a flip reset on my kid brother

[woeful thunder]

but its more fun then just sitting in free play for 3 hours just smacking the ball hard

[frank pebble]

i mean irl

[sterile thunder]

i mean if you really say that then is it also a good idea to go for flip resets at champ 1?

or even plat

[woeful thunder]

you need flip resets at gc so why not learn in champ

[sterile thunder]

meh i can't argue against that

you win

[woeful thunder]

meh can't argue with that one 🐺

yeah sometimes people practice mechanics too easy for them

good to get fundamentals though

[sterile thunder]

i guess it heavily depends on your rank and the mechanic

sure

no because if you're going to learn air dribbles in plat, you're not going to put as much time in the fundamentals like shooting, saving, recoveries

if you can only air dribble

it's not going to be much use if you're gonna get scored on every time because you don't know how to save

or when there's a shooting opportunity, you're just going to miss because you put more hours on air dribbles

now, yeah

you can score with air dribbles

[woeful thunder]

yeah heavily practiced multiple resets in mid champ

even got to quad resets and now in gc i have no problem resetting

perfecting resets greatly benefited me in the future

yeah i did low plat

but that was like 2018

[sterile thunder]

W

shhh

yeah

they take a lot of time to set up

[cunning flicker]

guys

i need help with my flicks

[pearl tide]

Tips for confidence when playing with comms? One of my team members noted that I play very hesitant when we are on comms. I'm around the GC1 area. When hearing tm8's talk and announce where they are, it makes me feel pressured to not invade their area of play. However, without comms, I feel no pressure or hesitancy.

[cunning flicker]

r u plat

[pearl tide]

Make sure to not do a full jump when flicking, it helps with keeping the ball near your car.

[cunning flicker]

how

do i do that

[pearl tide]

Just like in Mario, the cars have a higher jump the longer you hold the button.

[cunning flicker]

thanks

🙂

[pearl tide]

You're welcome.

[random void]

hey, Im currently trying to speed flip correctly but im doing something wrong most of the times but im not really sure what. Can someone please tell me what Im doing wrong? https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/1Vt9HHRZNGOm_X/d13372kUJKeP?invite=cr-MSxDZ20sOTI0NjgzNzEs
(im c2 btw)

[cunning flicker]

oh i just reccomend wave dasshing

or just jump first instead of jumping after the count goes in.

because you have more air time to go faster.

ye

[signal lintel]

What pack is this? You might need to let your car fall before starting each attempt. And yeah your flip direction is inconsistent, same with the turn before you jump

I'm pretty sure it's not possible to cancel too early. How would that be a problem?

[umbral crag]

you don't

[signal lintel]

I don't know what the tornado flip looks like but I believe you. Are you saying in the clip they STOP cancelling too early?

[umbral crag]

canceling early shouldn't matter. src: see halfwaydead's testing of speedflips w/ tas

nothing about it makes it harder to control

[signal lintel]

The cancel should start as soon as possible after the flip starts. That keeps the car as straight as possible, making the boost more effective

[umbral crag]

point was canceling earlier does not make it any slower

you can do it without tas

[signal lintel]

So is this what you're trying to say @warm agate?

Man this is too confusing smh

[umbral crag]

their car points down because of flipping late not because they are canceling too early

canceling early doesn't cause your car to point up

uncanceling does

just like a twist flip

[vivid vine]

im not sure what im doing wrong i used to be d3 and i have some d3 and champ skills but stuck low d1 can anyone help

[umbral crag]

doubt "cancelling that early"

yes

[signal lintel]

Were you d3 for a while or just touched it? D1-D3 is not a big difference but you are probably just not playing confident enough if you were consistently D3 and now D1

[random void]

hmm yeah I really have problems with finding the right angle

[vivid vine]

yeah it was not that long ago i was d3 but idk i have enough hrs and skill to be champ im just stuck on the game play

[signal lintel]

It should be slightly more forwards than diagonal/45°, although kbm players do exactly 45° and that works well enough

[random void]

what do you think im doing wrong?

[random void]

idk some random pack I found

[random void]

yeah I am somehow not able to hit a angle consistent

[signal lintel]

If you have the hours and skill then you'll rank up just from solo queuing lol

[random void]

ah alr

[daring copper]

Hilarious

He's gold he's like that

Or was it silver

[vivid vine]

will like i can air dribble normal dribble flicks 45 degree flick and starting to learn air roll i can some times you think that is enough skill to get to champ

[daring copper]

Get to champ then if you're good enough

[signal lintel]

What

Oh I have deciphered it

[daring copper]

You're welcome

[vivid vine]

yeah but like the team 8 just over commit and don't save anything like ill go for something with more mech and then my team 8 just don't know what to do and then they just dont be in the right spot

[signal lintel]

Ok so stop attempting air dribbles and don't hold air roll during aerials, that should get you to around C1

[daring copper]

Don't blame your tm8 ur d1 bro

[signal lintel]

Frfr

[daring copper]

It was funny tho

[vivid vine]

i used to be d3 and they can tell you what you are going for and are better team 8 than plat 3 and d1

[daring copper]

Don't do anything fancy bro lol

It's d1

[vivid vine]

so just play hard defensive

[daring copper]

No just play normal don't go for anything in the air

but psyonix still develop the game from my knowledge

like the devs were psy devs

and then epic are the higherups

either way like

u talkin bout cinderblock or am i missing someone else

wasn't he implemented to do the training features in particular

or was that just a coincidental crossover

seriously..?

didn't even hear about that to be honest

bro some people make it to champ with just gamesense lmfao

[astral edge]

possible to hit ssl with good game sense too

yea but with just game sense alone

no fancy mechanics

for sure

would you say players that can hit those high ranks with just game sense are naturally gifted

i mean you could play on for hours on end but it won't mean anything if you haven't learnt from it by having really good cognitive ability

honestly you'd be surprised

that may be just because they play for fun or something

but you'd think that many hours would atleast place you at diamond or champ

so i feel like it definitely has something to do with genetics

you think gc

[daring copper]

Rl genetics

[astral edge]

cognitive ability

being able to adapt to situations

having good decision making

some of these thing won't come with practise

just how your mind is

if you are playing for fun i'd say gc is a little high

[daring copper]

Rl genetics 😤

[past spruce]

You could search for people on the #looking-for-group channel

[cold musk]

hii can anyone play with me to help me with what i'm doing wrong or can improve on?

[lusty galleon]

you arent making a real setup towards a net
you are just hitting it up
decent distance from the ball, first touch was better than i expected, but you need to HIT THE BALL TOWARDS THE NET off of the wall
a good air dribble setup is already bouncing into the net eventually if you never actually make contact in the air
for more advanced airplay, you might do a slower setup to give yourself more time to set up outplays
but for basic bouncy airdribble, hit it hard TOWARDS THE NET from MIDFIELD
you should only like 2 low-power touches to make it score to net

[cold musk]

1v1?

im up for anything

epic?

[devout igloo]

What do people think about having powerslide on left stick? Trying to make room so I can have both air roll left and air roll right, but want to be able to reach powerslide. Is it fine on left stick?

[cyan sage]

i need a coach i what to improve on my Ranked i am Gold 3 and whant to get to Platinum 3

[north turtle]

check dm

[shrewd matrix]

Trashy bind. U could make it work but holding it on a button lime left stick that moves your car is a bother. If u wanna put something on left stick it should be something you only tap and never need to hold

[devout igloo]

Do you not think I could make it work with practice?

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah but why make things harder for yourself?

Why not put the left air roll on reverse/left trigger and primarily use the right one for flying? Then u can put powerslide on the l1

[worthy drum]

im gold 1 can anyone help me with air dribbling?

[shrewd matrix]

Do you use free air roll aswell?

[devout igloo]

With these binds no

[shrewd matrix]

Are you eu?

[worthy drum]

eu?

[shrewd matrix]

Europe

[worthy drum]

nah

[shrewd matrix]

Ash u dont want to fat finger?

[devout igloo]

Wdym? Tbh I just want to know how usable powerslide on left stick is

[shrewd matrix]

Its definetly usable but probably one the worst buttons to put it on

[devout igloo]

Yeah that makes sense but unfortunately I don't know if I'll be able to reach powerslide if I have it on X (I use Xbox), and left stick is the only free place really

I've practiced with it a bit and it doesn't feel too bad, just need to get used to it I think, just wanted to hear someone else's opinion

[shrewd matrix]

Thazs why i suggested putting one directional air roll on the l2 button and then powerslide on l1

How many hours you got in rl?

[devout igloo]

Wouldn't that mess up half flips?

I mean if I had it with reverse on the same button

[shrewd matrix]

Dont know i dont hold reverse when half flipping i let go

I dont got to bother with this since i play claw tho

[devout igloo]

I haven't got an exact number of hours, but I've been playing since September 2020 and I'm usually around D3 if that helps

[shrewd matrix]

Probably too much of a bother for u to switch to claw then

[devout igloo]

Reason I'm doing this is cuz I want to have air roll left and right, I've been using right for three years and tried learning left before but gave up

[steel fog]

I'd say its more beneficial to have a good, solid, easy to use powerslide than it is to have both air roll left and right, you really only use 1 directional air roll unless you intend to be top 5 players of all time, maybe

[devout igloo]

But would you say it's possible to get good at using powerslide on left stick? There are people who use weirder controls than this tbf lol

[steel fog]

Not sure, but the question is why would you :D. If it's to have both air rolls then its just not worth it at all

Power slide is the most important mechanic in the game, you need to prioritise that above all

[devout igloo]

It's absolutely important, I agree

[steel fog]

For example you're D3 right now, you can get to C2 without even jumping if you are really good at driving using power slide

[devout igloo]

Yeah probably

I've been in C2 before tbf

[steel fog]

Perfect! I would focus on the power slide 100%, also why do you want both air rolls?

[devout igloo]

I think having two air rolls and being good at them sounds quite fun

I got good at right, now I want to be good at left

[steel fog]

How good are we talking?

[devout igloo]

I've used air roll right for nearly three years, it's not perfect ofc cuz I'm diamond but it's definitely good

[steel fog]

What are your goals? Do you want to rank up, or just try free styling?

[devout igloo]

Idk tbh lol

[steel fog]

😄

[devout igloo]

I've always had better than average mechs cuz I've spent a lot of time messing around in freeplay but ofc it's not at all consistent, scoring nice goals is fun, but idk if I wanna be a freestyler, just a player with good mechs.

I just let the game take me where it wants me to go tbh.

[steel fog]

Well, if you want to be a good player with good mechs, I would strongly recommend not having both directional air rolls, its a huge learning curve and doesn't offer much extra. For example you could practice ARL for another 200 hours for like a 2% increase in overall ability it offers (maybe not) then you would need to workout when to use each air roll, which would take thousands of hours to figure out which one works best when compared to the other in which position, which may not even give any serious advantage.

[devout igloo]

Yeah you're right, but I still kinda wanna learn it

[steel fog]

Well if that is the case, good luck 😄

[devout igloo]

Thanks then lol, ig I'm gonna practice with these controls a bit more cuz it hasn't really made me much worse after changing them, just a couple small things that I think I can adjust to

[random void]

yeah im using powerslide on left stick for over a year, its possible but its uncomfortable af. I'll also try to change it to L1

[severe mulch]

How can i improve my game sense?

[foggy cloud]

I'm hardstuck silver II Div II and III, I win a game making me Silver II Div III but then in the next game I lose making me Silver II Div II this has been going on for an hour, how do I fix this

[brisk agate]

im playing on split screen after winning 2 matches and getting mvps both the times my rank is still plat 2 div 3
wht do i do

[uneven forum]

Play more

[small sleet]

should i delay my second jump in fast aerials or nah

[sterile thunder]

you're probably inconsistent when going for complex stuff, try playing more simple

[small sleet]

i’m stuck on champ 2

[dusky fiber]

might sound weird but try playing without sound, this forces u to look around more to avoid double commits or bumps, this could help to improve your game sense

[dusky fiber]

playing and practise tbh, grinding is not always ranking up its going up and down, the more u practise the better u get

[dusk sinew]

anyone got any tips on how to learn air roll lefty fast

[rigid shore]

Hey um can some1 teach me how to flip reset on controller, im plat 3

(i can air dribble)

[daring copper]

Lol

[young hemlock]

hey can someone teach me how to use my flips/second neutral jumps more creatively in the air? im trying to clean up my game and just be able to make my gameplay & movement look fast and seamless

[mortal quail]

Not sure what you are asking
But general aerial advice is to learn to fast aerial, utilize air roll to adjust yourself so you get better touches on the ball

[young hemlock]

dude im way past that stage

tbh now i think about it the stuff im asking isnt exactly difficult to figure out it just takes practice

[regal remnant]

Watching pros / top SSL players helped my movement a ton personally

But in the air is a little tougher imo to gain some momentum / be seamless

Id rather land with dashes than flip a certain way, although flip cancels could be of help ?

so i been trying to learn double resets no stall and i have a question, when i go for my resets i use free air roll to adjust my car where i want to, should i get rid of using free air roll and only focus on getting my resets only using directional air roll?

[astral burrow]

lost 150mmr in two days, crazy

[fast gate]

Imagine losing 300

[astral burrow]

I dont wanna :c

[severe arch]

imagine losing over 300 in 2 years due to rank decay

[astral burrow]

only in a game like RL the games get harder the lower you go

unbelievable

[severe arch]

nah i just stopped playing comp

[marsh tiger]

Adjustments are fine that's what it's there for pookie

[obsidian dawn]

in champ duos solo que is it better to expect your tm8 to pass or just play like mid or sum

[marsh tiger]

No lol

You just have better gamesense to compensate

[flint plaza]

try to make it simple and learn it step by step,
u can even use low gravity and low game speed at first
and then increase it as u get better understanding of what each adjustment does

also make sure that u can recover from everything (mostly by making ur nose point upwards)

make sure u can do slight adjustments and tight turns accurately

[astral burrow]

I meant my games

[obsidian dawn]

nah cuz ill be like perfect position for a pass... never happens 😭

[marsh tiger]

Joystick down and right = Go lefty joystick up and right = go righty

[flint plaza]

for more help u can check yt and other resources
then start grinding
(it takes time and effort)

[obsidian dawn]

theyll just shoot it from like mid field and then other team has possession so should i jsut start playin behind them

[marsh tiger]

When you solo queue it is what it is, objective is still to win so if you have to adjust for the fact that they don't pass, just let them solo play or be ready to clean up lol

[obsidian dawn]

fair enough

[marsh tiger]

Most of the time, unless you're playing GC2+, the mistakes come in plenty load, just be patient enough to wait for it

[obsidian dawn]

true true

[marsh tiger]

💂‍♀️

[obsidian dawn]

will say tho champ hoops people be passing tho

[mortal quail]

Passing in 2s, especially solo queue just isnt a good idea

[marsh tiger]

Champs hoops is actually pretty tough lol

It took me a few hours to hit GC but I hit a wall around champ 2

[obsidian dawn]

wdym?

[mortal quail]

Hoops the ball is lighter, much easier to boom it

[marsh tiger]

No comms or Chem = passing stupid

[obsidian dawn]

might be at that wall rn

[mortal quail]

It relies on you to be able to receive a pass AND your teammate to be able to pass properly, same vice versa. Its very easy to overcommit if even one of those isnt good, then if they dont pass at all, its a double overcommit and likely a free counter

[obsidian dawn]

ohh makes sense

[mortal quail]

In 2s, most players are heavy crutches, good at a few things but bad at everything else

Passing being not common

[marsh tiger]

You start playing pretty tough fucking people for no reason😭 im only GC1 and that puts me in the top .2%.

Just not a large player pool

[obsidian dawn]

so is just going for solo plays the meta then?

[marsh tiger]

Without chasing it around yea

[mortal quail]

Solo plays then teammates following up
So you beat one and he beats the other

[obsidian dawn]

i be playin against mid gcs in champ hoops lmao

[nocturne breach]

never pass in champ

[obsidian dawn]

its scarry asf

[nocturne breach]

and never follow passes in champ

[marsh tiger]

They're fast and good as hell, they want that hoop title tho😅

[mortal quail]

This

[obsidian dawn]

hmm ball chase time

[marsh tiger]

Lock in baby😏

[obsidian dawn]

damn i really gotta start playin different then

[obsidian dawn]

dunk master such a flex tho

[fast gate]

Just pass to the opponents. Best advice I can give for champ.

[nocturne breach]

real

[obsidian dawn]

so never expect tm8s to pass and ball chase got it!

[marsh tiger]

I will never hit the stupid threshold again, I got my one, I'm done lol

I think the other ones are better IMO

[nocturne breach]

not really

hoops and rumble gcs are too easy to get if u grind

[mortal quail]

Solo queue is like 90% just babysitting your teammate in champ

[marsh tiger]

I'm going for Ice titan rn in snow day which I fw, but I got RNGENIUS so I'm happy if I don't

[obsidian dawn]

lmao got it

[nocturne breach]

i dont even do that anymore, i just go with the flow and say "it is what it is"

lmao

[obsidian dawn]

nah i want dunk master, but when they start doing multi resets im out

[mortal quail]

I do that as well and perma stuck 1400, kinda sad

[nocturne breach]

then u dont deserve it

[marsh tiger]

Solo queue = 3v1 lol

Or 2v1v1

[flint plaza]

I just remembered when a dia 1 started dribbling the ball from the opponents' corner towards mid and the opponent 1st man was chasing him

I was going back and shadowing but he expected me to go for it and double commit and stated "Wow"ing in quick chat

passing doesn't mean being a good tm8

[nocturne breach]

i got a tm like this, but still won

if u play passive and they monke chase is usually going to be fine

[marsh tiger]

Take the W where ya can🫡

[nocturne breach]

frr

[marsh tiger]

Oh yea you can stop your car and go afk in front of opposing net and they usually will all make some fumble lol

[obsidian dawn]

nah as soon as you play a lil passive everyone one ball chases its crazy

[marsh tiger]

Not literally but point is there

[astral burrow]

i hate this game :c

[marsh tiger]

Fake challenge then

[nocturne breach]

most people cant hit the ball where they want to, so just let them pass to you

[obsidian dawn]

they dont have brains man

[marsh tiger]

If you are shadowing too much, they'll take the space always

[obsidian dawn]

usually what i do

[plain venture]

nah who wants to 1v1 me and help me improve

[marsh tiger]

Then full 50 LMAO

[obsidian dawn]

i just jump

[nocturne breach]

use merc for gym car

[obsidian dawn]

always works

[fast gate]

Or eat protein

[nocturne breach]

this is a cheat code guys, dont tell anyone

[fast gate]

Get buff

[marsh tiger]

Can be risky at higher levels just bc they have brains lol, and jumping just suspends you if you aren't fully committed to that decision

[fast gate]

WHAT RANK ARE YOU

[marsh tiger]

NO THANK YOU

[fast gate]

Jk I lied I'm not at home

[marsh tiger]

SORRY TAKE IT TO THE LFG MAYBE?

[obsidian dawn]

but then wave dash

🙂

[marsh tiger]

I Guess I'd have to see what scenario you mean when you say jump then lol bc some that's not an option if your shadowing right at net and you're option to stuff it right there is a single or double jump to 50 the ball

But most of the time on the field yes wave dash works too

[fast gate]

Did you know if you hit the ball you win the game?

[marsh tiger]

Then why do I lose so much

So we're just lying today huh
