[daring copper]

Yes

[small valley]

an actual diamond cannot

good

see thats all im asking..

dont say that u play like a certain rank without being it..

ooo

[daring copper]

I 1v1ed a diamond yesterday and beat him 13-3 + 10-0

[latent isle]

Brother @daring copper literally trashed a diamond who claimed he was gc level in a 1v1 yesterday. I promise you you’re not all that.

[small valley]

thats embarrassing

imaginge losing to a gold 2

[daring copper]

*gold 1

[small valley]

rip u deranked

[signal lintel]

Yes

[daring copper]

Nah I'm peak gold 1

[fiery temple]

Does anyone know how to connect dualshock 4 contrller to epic games on pc i tried yusing wire and bluetooth but it doesn't work

[daring copper]

They don't exist

[latent isle]

If you’re gonna come in here and ask for help, be humble about it. We’re a lot more happy to help people who don’t have big egos.

[small valley]

hey buddy what is a smurf?

just think about it

no

[stone ridge]

How do I message people looking for group? New to discord?

[daring copper]

#looking-for-group

[stone ridge]

I see the channel but can’t message anybody in there, says my messages can’t be delivered

Thanks for answering me btw

[signal lintel]

If you are confused about how to use a channel, generally you should read the channel description and then check the pinned messages

[stone ridge]

👍

[signal lintel]

Some people only allow messages from friends, so you need to friend request them first

[fiery temple]

hi

[stone ridge]

I see the pin there about how to post but I’m interested in playing with someone who already posted. It must have been that the five people I tried to message all had friend only dms

Thanks again, much appreciated!

[fiery temple]

do u know how to connect dualshpock 4 to pc on epic games, I tried using cable and bluetooth it just doesn't work

[signal lintel]

No but it should work especially with the cable. Keep trying with the cable, and search Google/YouTube/Reddit

[fiery temple]

k thx

[dense cargo]

Ay got first in a tourney

[stone ridge]

Does it matter that my name here is different than epic? Will people message me here in response to looking for group, or will they try epic?

[latent isle]

Should dm you directly

[stone ridge]

Ok thanks

[small valley]

shhh

[fiery temple]

thx a lot i wtahce da video and figured it out

[hexed wing]

lol u don't

[latent isle]

Good luck bro

[hexed wing]

smurfs suck

nice

what rank r u now in 2s?

u want to play?

k

[cyan sage]

how do i get to champ im one game off

[latent isle]

You win your promotion game

If you’ve made it to one win off apparently what you’ve been doing is working

[daring copper]

Skill based matchmaking

[hexed wing]

lol

what rank are you in 2s?

[small valley]

free rent bby

dw about it bud

nope

u do have teammates ur level..

[signal lintel]

nice np

[grizzled jungle]

are there any gc2s that could play with me to help me get to gc

[cyan sage]

If you are two ranks higher why can’t you 1v2?

Should be easy enough

[daring copper]

Any gc would beat 2 diamonds easily

Rank does show you how good you are lmao

Rank = skill

Higher rank = higher skill

It basically does

It's the best way to measure someone's skill

Smurfs aren't common, ppl stuck in a rank are that skill obviously

I suppose ppl who only play casual and don't play ranked could be higher than unranked

But that's about it

Gameplay will look the same at the same rank

And 1v1 doesn't mean skill they could be better at another game mode

Not the exact same but similar

It's probably because you're gold

And gold is bad

No it doesn't

No lmao

No it doesn't lmao

Most ppl don't play 1s as much as 2v2 idk bout 3v3

But there are ppl who are ssl in 3s that don't play 1s at all

[polar sage]

who is c2-c3 in 3s and gc2+ in 2s need help

[onyx sinew]

whats your 1s rank

[inland cedar]

I am

[frank glen]

Any GCs who can do a gameplay review for me? I am C3 div 4 and am struggling to hit GC. Currently winning every other game and need to figure out what small improvements I can make. Every game is close and I need to be able to create more for my team

[compact laurel]

anyone have free coaching

[lost verge]

What rank

[lost verge]

dm me with 2 replays

[sleek mountain]

Hey how can I improve my aerial as a plat player

[lost verge]

Use different aerial training packs

[sleek mountain]

Such as?

[latent delta]

you on pc?

[pearl dune]

Yo I need help with flip rests

[analog beacon]

can anyone replay my game and tell me where to do better?

[wide berry]

is high sens with a high deadzone better than low sens with a low deadzone? High sens does allow you to turn faster, but low sens also has the precision and small movements that are harder on higher sens

[flint flume]

Sens and deadzones are preference

[quick gale]

Any tips on how to help control my car in the air?

[lost verge]

In my opinion high sens is worse if you need to make quality touches on the ball so I'd try staying on the lower side

[hearty path]

its preference

i play 10 10 aerial and steering and .15 controller

[lost verge]

Can you make any sort of precise touches though?

Like how are your dribbles and can you control the ball in the air?

[sterile thunder]

i tip on flicks is that i usually keep the ball on the left side of my car and diagonal flip to the left

[sturdy portal]

How to get out of plat?! I’ve been hardstuck since season 6 (roughly 300 hrs since S6 ended)

[fringe grail]

Are ur mechanics the problem or ur game sense?

[cyan sage]

Pretty sure the basic mechs are still lacking since plat

[daring copper]

It will be both

[fringe grail]

Yea Ik

[sleek mountain]

Nah

[granite cape]

What mechanics should I learn in champ?

[sturdy portal]

No, I can hit the ball in the air pretty consistently. I’m not even worried about flashy mechanics and I usually don’t challenge the ball unless I either know I can score or my tm8 is behind and is covering the rebound. Thanks!

[sturdy portal]

Flicks are ehh I can dribble though

[vestal zephyr]

hey

[north geyser]

So have you done more freeplay or more packs?

[vestal zephyr]

packs are custom maps right?

I've been doing custom maps

[north geyser]

Training packs

[mortal quail]

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

[north geyser]

Workshop maps also

Do more freeplay, training packs give a specific circumstance which would likely never happen in game, for the variations, do more freeplay. Hitting the ball around, keeping speed and trying to do the things you trained in packs / maps.

[vestal zephyr]

Will do. Thanks :)

[north geyser]

No problem

Also good point ☝️

[vestal zephyr]

I try to play games as well but my mechanics aren't great so I miss alot

[north geyser]

What rank are you?

[vestal zephyr]

im plat 1 right now but I'm usually gold 3

[north geyser]

Ah you don't have to worry then, play more games as rain suggested. Also do what you were doing before

[vestal zephyr]

long shots and rebounds

[north geyser]

Aim Training by coco is a good map, hooks you up with different distances

Easy mode should be enough to get rolling

Ah

[vestal zephyr]

thanks! but where can I find the packs?

I can't search them in game

[north geyser]

You're pc?

[vestal zephyr]

yes

[north geyser]

Shooting consistency must in the browse section. I'm currently offline so can't share code

[vestal zephyr]

Oh yeah I found it

Thanks

[north geyser]

No problem

[vestal zephyr]

I couldn't find the aim training map though

[north geyser]

You're on epic games?

[vestal zephyr]

Yeah

Do I need the stream version?

[north geyser]

Ah then you have to use bakkes mod to get the workshop maps

[smoky hare]

i need one for double tap off opp backboard. does anyone have a tpack fo that?

[north geyser]

Unfortunately you can't buy rl from steam unless you bought before f2p

[north geyser]

Deevo is good

[vestal zephyr]

I'll check it out then

Can you be good on pc? since everyone I've seen seems to be on controller

[olive atlas]

Yes

Everyone is on pc but plays controller

Even on console u can be good

[vestal zephyr]

I play keyboard and mouse

[olive atlas]

Also people on kbm

It doesn’t matter what u play with it’s how u play

[smoky hare]

code pls?

[olive atlas]

So I wouldn’t suggest you feel pressured to be on controller

Though it is easier than KBM

[smoky hare]

btw guys

[alpine thorn]

hi there

[olive atlas]

Popcorn

[smoky hare]

https://prejump.com/ this has traininpacks. just search and u will find its supr helpful

[vestal zephyr]

Thanks 👍

[fast gate]

have you tried double tap playground?

[smoky hare]

Yes. I'm not that good so, i need something easier then move to thay

[smoky hare]

Thanks bro 🙏

[charred oak]

are gold painted season goal explosions not a thing?

i'm on lvl 279 or so now and can see -normally- up to 30 tiers ahead but can only see up to 286 rn so is taht the end?

and if so why are gold painted goal explosions not a thing

[frozen wagon]

i want to improve my gameplay. i am currently gold. i dont have a mic but i can listen . i also dont mind if its a duo

[latent delta]

watch video's. play a crap ton of 1v1.

[latent delta]

im 283 and also can only see up to 286

[unique plaza]

whats the best way to master directional air roll?

[latent isle]

Practice

There’s no shortcut to mechanics, just keep drilling them over and over until it’s muscle memory

[patent oriole]

Someone drop a whole bunch of training packs that can just help me improve. I'm at plat 1 and I want to get better yknow

[unique plaza]

how

yea

lol

[cyan sage]

#looking-for-group

[sturdy portal]

I can’t air dribble I’ve always just tried to improve my ground play

[golden void]

How do I use it?

[cyan sage]

Check the channel and look at a request. Its literally marked in blue what u need to type

[golden void]

Next

[shy mantle]

You on PC? If so use a rings map. If on console, practice flying around the pillars on the pillars map in free play. Also learn how to air dribble without directional air roll if you can’t already do it. Then put the two together (this is actually the hardest bit)

[buoyant crescent]

Kicked for a joke

That's crazy

[buoyant crescent]

Stop minimodding youjust joined and alr mini modding

The mods got this

[cyan sage]

Im just vibin lol. Dont want ppl to get punished for not knowing how strict mods are

[unique plaza]

how are you supposed to even put the ball in their net in hoops?

[buoyant crescent]

I'm gonna let the mods have a say in htis 🙂

[cyan sage]

Ight leggo lad

[buoyant crescent]

Tell me when you find out 😄

[unique plaza]

lmao

almost went into 0-0 overtime

[calm zinc]

will rocket league get more esports decals

i see 2024 team skins that arent ina shop?

[latent delta]

i can confirm it is the end

[bold cypress]

so i solo q alot and i am wanting to get into teaming with people but my rotations with others are bad but good with solo qs how should i fix this

[latent delta]

carry and hope they follow your lead

[bold cypress]

so try and find the right team8?

[latent delta]

absolutly

if you dont wanna solo q find the right person and stick with them onlly

[latent isle]

If you’re between gold1/diamond1 feel free to dm me for a replay overview.

[bold cypress]

c3

[mortal quail]

Keep in mind
A lot of players dont solo queue, making rotations super one dimensional. Utilize comms, playstyle changes, and seeing who is good at what. You might have good rotates but bad communication and dont trust your duo

[latent delta]

XD

[bold cypress]

okay ill try and see the replayes and see what is going on

[soft egret]

thing Im having with low gc solo q is that the playstyles can be so different, from playing way too passive to overcommitting and ballchasing everything it's really not good

[bold cypress]

thats another thing is that i think i am use to playing different evry game so when i get a team8 its the same rotation and i cant

[golden ivy]

also when not solo queuing you stay with one person and you can know their playstyle and dont have to adapt every game

[latent delta]

why people so toxic for no reason

[bold cypress]

they are bullied by poeple blaming there team8

[latent delta]

guy said ez then got whooped

[wispy parcel]

guys can someone tell me why my walldashes aren't making me supersonic

[latent delta]

you have to have enough speed to start

[wispy parcel]

oh

thanks

[latent delta]

np

[wide sand]

couold someone make me unlearn athena flick rq? d m me

[golden ivy]

my advice would to watch waytons video on how to flick because that helped me a bunch

[sterile thunder]

welcome to the internet

[vital ginkgo]

Just a heads-up; remember that if your flick goes too high, it's always because the ball was too far back on your car

[coarse harness]

lf someone who can live coach/review me

[lost verge]

What rank are you

[viral onyx]

I got a question is there any reason why I'm mechanically better in cas then ranked

[latent isle]

You’re probably either facing worse opponents or you’re just under less stress because there’s nothing to lose

[viral onyx]

Oh o thanks

[charred oak]

well then why are there no gold paints of the goal explosions :(

i remember seeing gold latus blooms so there were before

[latent delta]

I doubt it.
This is my first season so I'm not familiar with the norm

[remote tapir]

ok after yesterday figured out halfflips
now on to speedflips, Got the basic movement down but using the plugin my cancel is just way to slow
just randomly asking for tips for tips to get the super fast cancels you need, anything I miss out

[charred oak]

u completed the entire rocket pass in ur first season??? thats wild

[latent delta]

😬
i have too much time i guess

[charred oak]

how'd u get into the game that quick

[hearty path]

yea im sonic

[lost verge]

I'm sorry but can I see a replay? I want to increase my understanding of the game plus I'm really curious how it looks for you using 10 sens I've only ever heard bad things about it and have used it myself for awhile

[latent delta]

i mean, technically i started last season but this was my first FULL season. I started in october

[charred oak]

fair enough, have ya made any progress rank-wise yet?

[frank pewter]

when pros say use free play to get better how exactly should i be using free play to improve overall instead of just working on one mechanic

[charred oak]

basically just fxck around and find out

[frank pewter]

that actually makes sense

[charred oak]

just mess with -if you have it- the bakkes pass and save things and just go for/try whatever you want

you'll just get better at it as you go

[hearty path]

same as being on actual field with soccer ball

[frank pewter]

i don’t have bakkes unfortunately i’m still on console

[hearty path]

just practice whatever and go for stuff

[frank pewter]

but we have a pass thing

i’ve always used to to work on mechs

for some reason i decided i wanted to grind flip resets

[charred oak]

ah yes, the only mech rocket league players care about.
the flip reset.

(i've been grinding double resets while im only c3)

[hearty path]

id argue its useful at c3 at least in these times

[finite moth]

haha thats so useless

(ive been grinding doubles since i was plat 3)

[finite moth]

double?

nah, single though can be helpfu;l

[charred oak]

My singles are just a complete whiff or the greatest flick beyond the stars

[hearty path]

i speak for just in these days simply cuz c3 actually has good players now

and double is where id keep the max triple is where its un needed

[charred oak]

I'd be mid c2 if i solo queued in these days fs

[finite moth]

doubles are just excessive imo

[hearty path]

i could see that

[finite moth]

im trying to practice just mechs now, i got around 1500 at my peak and dont rlly have motivation to grind rank

just dont see a point, if im being totally real

[hearty path]

my experience singles are the same as a reg shot in these times

[finite moth]

depends on how you use them, to be fair

game is very situational, but in most cases one is enough

[hearty path]

ya ofc

[finite moth]

to beat first man, and put lasy guy in awkward position

[charred oak]

In c3 insta resets are the only to work cause everyone rushes

[hearty path]

its the same situational for knowing how to double

i dont take learning to double as going for doubles over and over

just the ability to and having the opp its def useful

from my own goals and from others i see get scored in game

[frank pewter]

single resets are so good in ranked

sometimes just the threat is enough you don’t even need to hit the ball well

[dry marsh]

If anyone needs coaching, try asking @cyan sage , he coached me from plat to champ in about 2 weeks, entirely free

[latent delta]

Peaked at diamond 3 div 3 back to diamond 1 temporarily

[charred oak]

In your first full season thats nice, solo or double que?

[latent delta]

@cyan sage if you have room id love some help and advice currently diamond 1 div 3

[latent delta]

Both. Mostly solo queue

2 games

[charred oak]

Likely 2

[latent delta]

It goes up by 9-10

[charred oak]

Depends on how flexible ur rank is rn

Im assuming normal tho

[dry marsh]

2

no, each win is worth 8-11

[charred oak]

The less games you play in ranked in a season the more mmr you win/lose per game

[cyan sage]

alr bro😭

[charred oak]

It usually locks on 9 at some point

[dry marsh]

go coach that bro

[cyan sage]

@dry marsh free coach

[charred oak]

Ur easily locked on 9 then so 2 games

3 if ur unlucky

[small valley]

@cyan sage coached me from silver 2 to c3 in 3 months if anyone needs coaching ask him, hes always happy to help 🙂 hes a really great coach

[cyan sage]

the smiley is crazy

😭 😭

[charred oak]

I've always played kbm, its got more shittyness to it than advantages

I only play it cause i always have and im too far in to switch

I've played kbm my entire life on any game so i started rl the same naturally

C3 in about a year of maining the game, might been gc if i played controller

[random igloo]

How to lfg

[charred oak]

I just know and do too much on kbm to switch to controller without losing about 12 ranks worth of skill

At diamond it is

C1 it is

C2 still is unless ur freestyling

C3 depends wether ur a gamesense or mexh player

Gc is just nuh uh

[calm zinc]

guys someone can asnwer me

[charred oak]

Dias barely know mechs (consistently) and thus wont take long to get back to it

[calm zinc]

why is there skins in bakkes mod for esports teams that are not in the esports shop and the are 2024 ^^

[cyan sage]

how do i get to gc i just hit champ yesterday

and im c2 now

[cyan sage]

by playing the game more

[signal lintel]

[versed topaz]

Daaamn

[unborn locust]

Is it me or the rank system is so terrible

[weak relic]

god praise the lord get me out of diamond

[signal lintel]

It's you 😦

[weak relic]

nah. look at diamond

33% are plat level or under, 33% are diamond level and 33% are far over diamond level

[signal lintel]

2/3 boosted or smurfing? I don't think so lmao

But with that mentality I'm sure you will be out of diamond soon (and back to plat)

[weak relic]

i'm diamond level

just diamond is unstable

[signal lintel]

This late in the season? Idk how that would be possible. Why do you think these players should be in such a different rank?

[weak relic]

could just be smurfs as well

which si the majority

for some reason i play with former gcs and high champ

[signal lintel]

People go on win streaks and loss streaks, that's part of the game. People don't play consistently. If everyone played consistently then that would be different

[latent isle]

Boosted/washed is always a possibility

[signal lintel]

If you party up and stuff that's different too, same as going against a party

[weak relic]

they should add a non party option

[signal lintel]

People would still complain about mostly the same stuff, other players' ranks being "inaccurate"

[weak relic]

yeah that can't be helped

just for the solo queuers it would

[latent isle]

People will always complain about Smurfs. Just how it is

Can guarantee you that there’s not as many as people say there is

[cedar hornet]

[grave jetty]

Hey anyone I am a Plat 3 I have hit D1 this season but went back down to Plat 3 cuz I had a unlucky losing streaks anyone have any tips for me to improve

[lime cove]

When the ball is in the air how do you hit it to continue to air dribble? I always hit to to far or i cant angle my self correctly or i get a good touch but cant continue

[latent isle]

Depending on the part of the car you hit the ball with will change how much power you hit it with. Typically you’ll want to come into contact with the ball with a low power contact point to have a control touch and after that it’s just how well you can control it.

[signal lintel]

there's no easy answer to that except avoid letting the ball get away/ahead of you unless you are going for a double tap off back wall. If you show a clip where you aren't sure what to do differently then you could get some real advice

[unborn locust]

Wanna play I’m d2

@unborn locust sure

For sure when I finish with my duo

dm me if u have free coaching

or just wanna play

[wary flint]

should i use kbm or controller with my pc. i can connect a controller to my pc

if its controller i'll have to relearn everything

[north geyser]

Both are fine, doesnt matter if you plan to play with kbm or controller. I would say controller is a bit easier to learn, but switching from kbm to controller isn't an easy task and will take alot of time to get fluent

But if you can put in the hours, its worth it

[teal falcon]

can anyone coach me?

any tips for boomer mode ?

[gleaming apex]

almost everyone with gc tag in d3/c1 is boosted. if i had a legit gc title and dropped that low i'd be embarassed to display it lol

now whenever i see one i know they suck lol

[weak relic]

they be doing crazy things here though

might have just been not playing for ages

[gleaming apex]

yeah could be

[spring obsidian]

usually its they forgot how to rotate and position so they fall down there

[weak relic]

thign is

[latent isle]

Most of them are washed

[weak relic]

they moslty are gc in another mode

[spring obsidian]

and whatever good stuff they do they arent consistent enough anymore

[gleaming apex]

they just seem to always be the weakest out of the team when i see it in C1

[weak relic]

so might have just been carried

even if they do some nutty things

[latent isle]

They have the unique extra mode tags?

[gleaming apex]

i've seen plats flip reset but zero game sense

[vagrant rune]

Yo anyone know if i should change to lb boost?

[twilit lynx]

My discord no caps

[flint plaza]

u don't have to
but it's so good

a lot of pros have boost and jump as default

a lot of pros (like arsenal) have boost on the right bumper

[spring obsidian]

i have it as that but i use free air roll, i think most people with left or right bind use the bumpers as air ropl

roll*

meant i have boost as right bumper

[hallow charm]

why are 1s so hard? i am d3 in 2s but plat 3 in 1s and i can't play 1s i get so mad playing them how can i improve..

[spring obsidian]

ones rank is technically supposed to be lower than ur other two ranks

just how the mmr categories are

[spring obsidian]

when i was gc 1 in 2s my peak in 1s was c1

[hallow charm]

2s are so easy for me it almost feels like i'm smurfing but in 1's i get so sweaty

[spring obsidian]

well u do have to move around the map faster or position urself better so, that makes sense

p3 in ones seems close to where I would expect a d3 to be

[hallow charm]

i think my problem is i practiced air dribbles and other mechanics that involve air too much and flicks and ground stuff not that much

[spring obsidian]

yeah if u arent comfortable on the ground that will hold u back in ones when they dont give u space or time

but getting past p3 on ones is completely possible without good air mechs

when i say good on ground im leaning more towards keeping urself in the play and ur boost up

[hallow charm]

yeah i recently started grinding 1's, i think i'm too used to 2s, need to practice my ground mechanics

[spring obsidian]

yeah ones is usually everyones lowest because mistakes are acceptable or less punishing in 2s and 3s

plus its normal to get frustrated in ones, it only u playing so all the bad stuff u do gets exposed more

[hallow charm]

no wonder i noticed a skill gap between my 2s and 1s rivals, in 1s they are better, so that makes sense thank u

[spring obsidian]

no problem

[civic pendant]

I’m a kbm player that tried playing controller on another acc and got champ 1 without aerialing and terrible car control lol

[finite moth]

does anyone have tips for learning off wall controlled mustys, the ones where you get height on the ball? Like what do I practice in order to get better car control and such, my car feels so sensitive in the air although im only on 1.3 aerial sens/.07 deadzone

[spring obsidian]

yeah i got p3 in ones without using boost lol

[spring obsidian]

dont know enough to teach lol sry

[spring obsidian]

although id say play the game in 1/2 speed and repeat the skill

usually what i do when i feel i cant move my car fast enough or i dont have enough time when doing a new skill

[flint plaza]

do you have some clips or replay files for it ?

[spring obsidian]

nah it was on an alt account, only did it because it was randomly placed in 1s silver 2

felt bad abt just winning 70 games in a row so i added a challenge

but it was still 70 in a row lol

[spring obsidian]

abused wave dashing and other forms of dashing, backflips, those chain dashes on the wall, pinches, and simple flicks

[unreal token]

Anyone got tips how to rotate or how to pass?

[spring obsidian]

depends what rank u r

[unreal token]

Champpion ½

[spring obsidian]

bit too close to my rank ngl, im sure ill say something that isnt correct lol

[unreal token]

np

I just can't pass no matter what

[spring obsidian]

memorizing the mini pads is never bad advice tho and i found that useful at the rank

ah

passes i could kinda do tbh

[unreal token]

Done

[spring obsidian]

the best passes are the ones that both defenders cant reach, so instead of banging it between ur t8 and the opp look for an area that can only be reached by ur t8, forces opp to give him time or to waste boost to cover him

[unreal token]

thx

[spring obsidian]

that kinda requires u to keep track of t8 boost, not exact amount, just roughly uf he has more than 20 or not

[lost verge]

What he said always look for teamates in open space where they won't be contested

[unreal token]

I've been doing that too

[spring obsidian]

as for goal scoring passes, its ur t8s job usually to recognize he cant score it without a 50 (in twos at least)

[unreal token]

thanks for tips

[spring obsidian]

👍

ouuhh def not me lol

[vestal moat]

does anyone have any ball catching/getting a ball in your control tips? videos or packs would be great (D3 btw)

[obtuse isle]

D3 on what.

[vestal moat]

loose balls that are either bouncing or around the walls just have me instinctively boom them

[halcyon crest]

Look for a catch training pack

[vestal moat]

2s

[obtuse isle]

Ight

[vestal moat]

i have been playing 1s a lot recently though and it’s definitely helping out

[obtuse isle]

Lmao. Hard stuck of teamates

[vestal moat]

my duo is away for a couple weeks so i was like might as well put in some 1s work lol

[halcyon crest]

Don't just play with a duo

If you want to have more fun sure, but if you actually want to get better then you should try to solo queue some more

[vestal moat]

i do solo queue as well, but less often for sure

probably around 1/3 of my games are solo queue fwiw

[spring obsidian]

have u tried the dribbling maps from steam workshop or leths website?

[fluid coral]

POV you get an alt account to a higher rank than your main😎 😭

[vestal moat]

i’ve tried them for a bit, i honestly haven’t put in much time though

i’ve been working on aerial control recently

[spring obsidian]

id say theyd help u understand how touches effect the ball when dribbling and will carry into catching but also u could try just free play bang the ball into a wall and catch it without it hitting the floor or catch in a direction u already picked before it touched u

next step for free play would be flick to yourself and catch or flick into a wall and catch

[vestal moat]

thanks for the tips, i’ll try them out for sure

[spring obsidian]

np

[vestal moat]

i got a question on something slightly related too

dead (like barely moving) ball in your possession, slightly ahead of half field in the opponents half, next to the wall, both opponents are more or less steady in defense, but you do have space

what do you try to do here?

my thought would be try to pick it up and go for a flick or something but with two defenders there and one of them coming right at you it also feels like i’m just asking for the ball to be boomed behind me

[spring obsidian]

easiest is to set up a flick into backboard to t8 tbh

yeah as soon as u touch 1st man is. rushing u

so the best aim would be a flick over him amd away from his 2nd man

in that situation it sounds like if u went up the wall he would meet u unless hes low on boost

[vestal moat]

tbf i do completely suck at taking a slow ball up a wall too so maybe i should work on that as well🤣

[spring obsidian]

eh when ur already past half and theres two on d u most likely will never score

ofc it possible if u do a mech thata fairly above ur rank but thats less likely to lead to something good than the other options

[vestal moat]

i feel like i need to at least have that in my toolkit because rn it feels like everyone can at least attempt to make a solo play like that

[spring obsidian]

another option for the situation is a flick off a wall to urself that beats their first man and makes their 2nd come to defend and then any touch behind 2nd should be alright

[vestal moat]

even if i don’t end up scoring when they know i won’t even threaten anything that why they can defend me way easier imo

[spring obsidian]

yeah true, but rolling it up the wall, then a small touch and banging it off backboard into ur t8 is easy to complete and hard to defend if u hit the ball with soeed

can very easily become an open net in 2s tho

[vestal moat]

honestly sometimes i wonder how i’m in D3 with my mechs lmao, my aerial reach and saves carrying tf out of me honestly

[spring obsidian]

lol yeah thats a sign that ur rotation and positioning is lacking

[vestal moat]

oh no i meant mechs wise, honestly i feel my rotation and positioning is carrying my lack of mechs

i could be wrong though, i should record some games

[spring obsidian]

ohh nvm i see what u meant

[halcyon crest]

I go for a low 50 on first defender as he's trying to force so he'll probably fly past you and then you're left in a 1v1 so do whatever you want from there

[hybrid pine]

any tips for how to master air roll left fully? i can just do it a little bit but often mess up with it

[spring obsidian]

I use free roll

[hybrid pine]

wdym free roll

lol

[rapid token]

Free cinamon rolls for life

[spring obsidian]

left stick to air roll instead of a button

lol

[spring obsidian]

[empty charm]

oh

[spring obsidian]

well one thing thats notable is the ball is more bouncy

just a little but yeah it is

[frank maple]

hello

can someone help me how to like speed flip ?

[unreal token]

I recommend watching a YT tutorial

[frank maple]

i did but when they press the buttons their car does the motion perfectly fine but when i try to do it my car kinda faces side ways instead of being straight

[unreal token]

yea I got the same problem but you need just practise it

[frank maple]

how do i fix it tho ;-;

[unreal token]

and I use free air roll to get it straight

but if you manage get it with directional roll it is fine too

[frank maple]

hm

now my car is going upwards heh

[unreal token]

XD

it works too if you press directional and try to jump foward then mid jump move quick the stick down

[frank maple]

im on kbm ;-;

[unreal token]

then I don't know how to help sorry

[frank maple]

wait check ur dm tell me what im doing wrong

[delicate dragon]

sure

[unique plaza]

when going up for an air dribble, how can I get a good first touch? (ground to air, when it's already in the air)

which part

front wheels?

how am I supposed to boom it without a flip

wdym double corner

[ruby canyon]

just a power shot to setup an eventual double tap

[ruby canyon]

corner read + redirect

[flint plaza]

put some mass on your touch,
if your hitbox is too high behind the ball before the contact and u try to tilt your nose towards the bottom of the ball, u will have a hard time and will mostly fail

if your hitbox is under the ball and u get your nose a little behind the ball (if you aim too much behind it, u can get a wheel touch which is bad) while controlling your momentum,
you will get a soft touch that u can follow

I prefer creating my own training packs to experiment and practice this
u can do that too

[unique plaza]

thanks

[signal lintel]

Cancel quicker and make sure you're actually flipping the right direction. Feel free to dm a clip

[stone lava]

[vast coral]

any tips

[rare wagon]

^ facts

I'm playing with uneducated gorillas

[coarse harness]

lf coach free im d2 and have good mechs

[unique plaza]

just a tip for anyone who's tryna learn to ground to air dribble with air roll control: start off by going into a custom training map, try to dribble it without using air roll for a while, then when you feel like you're ready, begin using air roll.

this is just to have an easier time finding the balance point of the ball

saying this cuz it worked for me

[flint plaza]

it's actually how I learned it and I believe many ppl will agree with u

[unique plaza]

yea

bruh I cant win games in diamond cuz everyone keeps demoing me like 5 times in one game

[sudden rain]

my air roll right feels faster than left, can anyone relate?

[latent isle]

Should be the same speed

[sudden rain]

when i use air roll left i feel slow compared to right fsr

[latent isle]

Not really sure why

Do you mainly use roll right?

[sudden rain]

i used to use air roll right but then i switched to air roll left

[latent isle]

Yeah probably because you’re not familiar with left

It’ll be like learning something completely new

[sudden rain]

nah i am very familiar with left now

just today i tried air roll right and it feels like my car spins faster than left

[latent isle]

I’m pretty positive they spin the same speed. No clue why it feels faster

[unique plaza]

tips?

[sudden rain]

Yh ik

Its bothering me

[strange bough]

Jump

[obtuse isle]

I’m p2 I think. On 2s but used to by somehow d1 on 1s

[cerulean mantle]

where can i find people with good mechanics to duo with cause im trying to improve and learn

[mortal quail]

Play at a faster pace and learn to dodge demos

Pay attention to the players on the field, if they go for a demo, be unpredictable

Stop moving, jump, ie. Dodge demo

[quaint citrus]

Question so I'm learning how to speed flip and I usually play with a controller deadzone of .5 and I noticed when I try to flip front cancel if I don't do it straight enough I start flipping and spinning to the left or right depending if my joystick is slightly to the left or right. I figured it's bc the deadzone is .5 bc at .24 if I'm slightly to the left or right I can flip cancel without it spinning off. Just asking how people can play at .5 and if I should increase my deadzone or not bc I think .5 helps me be precise but it also is hard to cancel well without it spinning off

[ionic monolith]

Idk if this applies but I use the back wall when i avoid demos in heatseeker

[quaint citrus]

Also no I don't have stick drift and also learning to to cancel front to just teach myself to cancel quick enough it's just hard to do it when I start spinning

[ionic monolith]

I find it really hard to demo and get demoed when on walls

Well yeah if you’re out of the play and they’re trying to demo you just drive up the wall and either jump back off immediately or you can act like you’re going up the wall then turn back down

That comes with awareness of the field. You need to get used to having an idea of where everyone is

Also if you have a headset with surround sound it helps.

[mortal quail]

Dont even need sound

Just move camera

Hes behind you, time your jump, shift hard one direction

[ionic monolith]

You don’t even need to do that much honestly

[mortal quail]

Well thats a problem

Makes sense why your being demoed from behind

[ionic monolith]

If you practice keeping a mental note of where everyone is on field it should help you

I almost never use the camera

C2

[mortal quail]

This is a lot harder than it sounds

[ionic monolith]

Yeah but it’s easier to practice at lower ranks. You have more time

[mortal quail]

True

[ionic monolith]

I just assume if I don’t see everyone on field then someone is behind me somewhere. And your camera is constantly moving on its own if you’re in ball cam so I use that to help too

[signal lintel]

Why would you play with a deadzone that high? It cuts your precision in half and hurts your reaction time. I've never heard of anyone playing above 0.3. The only reason I know of for playing above 0.05 is if you get stick drift or another controller problem.

I don't think controller deadzone affects flip direction if your joystick is pushed all the way to the outer edge when you start the flip, but I'm not 100% sure.

[cyan sage]

please tell me you mean .05

[quaint citrus]

Yes I mean 0.05 not .50 sorry for the confusion

[quaint citrus]

Sorry I meant .05 kinda forgot the 0 on .5

[cyan sage]

also that sounds like more of dodge deadzone thing

not a controller

[quaint citrus]

My dodge is .56 I think I can try to increase it tho if that helps but idk I'm thinking controller deadzone since when I cancel my car twirls even tho I'm canceling as straight as I can but u could be right

[night falcon]

When you have wavedash how do you make it so you don't go so high,I'm on controller and it's so hard

I can chain but it's slow because it goes high

[latent isle]

The longer you hold the jump button the higher you jump

[night falcon]

I legit tap it

But it's still so high

[signal lintel]

Ok so you turn it up to 0.24 and it is easier to flip exactly straight forward? I didn't think it worked that way but idk. Why are you worried about front flip cancels anyways?

[rare wagon]

Can anyone give advice for C1? I'm thinking of going up to gc1

[signal lintel]

@rare wagon here's some ideas

[quaint citrus]

Well it's easier to cancel without my car twirling around. Not flip I can flip fine with my dodge at .50 but my controller deazone at .05 it's harder to flip without it just twirling to the sides

Also worried about it bc when I wanna go backwards like back flips cancel its basically the same issue where when I do it I start spinning and I can't even try to recover bc it messes me up

[signal lintel]

@quaint citrus it's a matter of practicing I guess, idk what your rank is. But I'm still wondering why you care about cancelling front and back flips

You shouldn't change deadzones to make it easier to flip exactly forwards or backwards

[rare wagon]

I do most of these recommendations during the match, but I lose because of tm8s also every match is like plat rank

[quaint citrus]

Well I forgot the term for it but there's this move where if u flip back u can air roll and turn ur car around easier I forgot what it's called

But I can't do that if I'm just going sideways all the time

[signal lintel]

Then the opponents are also like plat rank, that's how matchmaking works. Your teammates and opponents are coming from the same group of players, unless one team is partied up.

Half your teammates are better than you, so try to figure out why it doesn't seem that way

[quaint citrus]

Also I'm plat 3 just trying to improve so I can get to diamond

[signal lintel]

Half flip. You should use the roll from the flip to your advantage. One way to halfflip is actually to do a non-perfect backflip and use that roll/rotation to make your car upright at the end

[rare wagon]

matchmaking isn't fair at all man, ive been c1 for 2 years think about the rest 💀

[signal lintel]

It's not any more or less fair for you compared to your teammates and opponents. You aren't at a disadvantage lol

If you are always partied up with a lower ranked player then obviously that would hold you back a bit

[rare wagon]

yeah..

[quaint citrus]

Ye that's it it's interesting bc when I try to half flip I can do it without air roll since my car already turn around from the cancel I did but front flip isn't really the same

[rare wagon]

thanks anyway bro, I'll figure it out I guess

[signal lintel]

To be clear, you don't need any of this for any rank, definitely not diamond. But it isn't bad to learn it

[signal lintel]

Yeah just try to be realistic and hopefully it will be less frustrating. Ranked is a way to matchups that are more fair, but it isn't perfect

[quaint citrus]

Yeah I mean people tell me that but I just wanna learn the games mechanics since I find it interesting to learn

[signal lintel]

Yup exactly but why do you want to do it with front flip anyways? I can't think of any mechanics involving front flip cancel

[signal lintel]

That's totally valid and you should do that if that's part of what you enjoy about the game. Just know that some mechanics take a lot more practice to get good and consistent enough to help in ranked. Not halfflip tho

[quaint citrus]

Well as I said I'm just learning to cancel my front flips just so I can learn to time my cancels so I can speed flip

[signal lintel]

Flipping perfectly forward will not help you learn speedflips at all, so you may as well just practice speedflips straight away

[quaint citrus]

Well yeah just learning some stuff not fully there yet

[quaint citrus]

Ok well il take that advice and just keep practicing my speedflips

[signal lintel]

👍 one exercise that can help you with speedflips is practicing without the cancel and boost, so basically a diagonal flip to check that you are flipping the right direction. Getting the flip direction consistent is a big part of speedflips (on controller), so you could mix that in with your speedflip practice

[quaint citrus]

Ok bet il try that

Thanks

I dont aerial fast enough and when i try to i just go past the ball

[golden kindle]

can someone coach me for 2s? i am diamond 2 dm me

[lost verge]

Some people just take more time to warmup than others it's probably just a habit you got into my best advice for that is to start testing your limits as soon as you enter freeplay by doing things out of your comfort zone to make what you can do a lot easier and about the duo q thing it's probably less about you not being used to it and more one of you or both of you aren't rotating or positioning properly

[flint plaza]

watch some replays of gc3 and ssl (ballchasing.com)
that's the best advice I can give you

just tap the keys lightly

or use keyboard input acceleration but keep in mind that it will make u slower and u should always decrease it

freeplay is the main game

[azure jacinth]

be specific with your inquiries when you come across something you don't understand or wish to learn. Don't just say "i suck" or "im new". People are willing to help out more often if you bring some effort to the table. (not saying that's what you're doing currently but this advice for you for the future)

[azure jacinth]

don't let that happen. boom problem solved

don't question my advice, either take it or ignore it

[weak igloo]

If my teamate sucks. What do I do? (And I can't get another person)

[weak igloo]

2016 for me

[weak relic]

i've been playing since september 2015

[weak igloo]

[placid geyser]

I solo q so much because my friends barely play now. They into some lame game now

[weak igloo]

which game?

[placid geyser]

Hell something

[high brook]

I solo queued to gc1

[placid geyser]

Wow

[weak relic]

[high brook]

Now I’m hardstuck getting shit on

[weak relic]

enormous game right now

[placid geyser]

lol I’m c1 most c2 but these kids now are crazy good

So I drop to diamond a lot

[placid geyser]

Yup that’s it

[high brook]

Yeah champ is literally gc now just a little less consistent

[placid geyser]

Oh wow

[weak igloo]

not really

most champs can't hit double resets

[high brook]

I haven’t played 2s in ages been trying to get my 1s and 3s up

[placid geyser]

I have like no control in the air can’t flip reset for anything but I can hit some bangers

[weak igloo]

almost everyone in grand champ can hit double resets

[high brook]

Low gc I mean

[weak igloo]

nah bro

[placid geyser]

Yea I can floor dribble a little bit but if I go to fast ball just gets away

[weak igloo]

still

[placid geyser]

lol

[high brook]

The diff between gc1 and gc3 is bigger than d1 -c3

[weak igloo]

not really

[placid geyser]

Ya I’ve seen gc yall nasty

[weak igloo]

I suck now though

[placid geyser]

But anyway I meant old as age

I’m old

[high brook]

Same

[placid geyser]

lol

Bro and my job I had someone ask me how to pull the blinds down and I helped and she was like I knew you could do it because you’re old

[weak relic]

i played 2015-2017 and highest rank i ever got was diamond 1, then took a break and started a week ago again

so i basically haven't played in 7 years

now i'm champ 1 so that's pretty fun

that's impressive

[weak igloo]

that's not really a rank

[high brook]

So u started when u were 7 💀

[weak igloo]

wait you can get top 100 in extra modes

[high brook]

I started at 11

[weak igloo]

how have I never known about that

[placid geyser]

But I’ll be back in the chat for sure trying to get people to start playing with . Y’all have a good day

[high brook]

Cya

I bet the ques are horrible

[weak igloo]

I got top 39 in snow day

[high brook]

I just don’t have the patience to play extra modes

I literally gold or plat in all of them

And I literally get awful teammates

[weak relic]

i don't play extra modes unless i'm with friends

because it's funny asf with

No

I’ve seen more gcs whose game sense than mechs

[flint plaza]

watch squishy's most recent video
I was just like u

I can't think of other solution rn but this one was enough for me

[weak igloo]

what region are you

cause I need your lobbies

[flint plaza]

that's cool
do you have some replays saved?

[weak igloo]

At this point what I've learned about playing 2s is that you should always play defensively, if your teamate goes up, let him go up, as long as your back on defense and can actually save you'll be fine

[weak relic]

don't think so

[flint plaza]

am I allowed to look u up on ballchasing

[weak relic]

sure

[weak igloo]

We can't all have the perfect teamate, but if you save some replays you can find what's going wrong

Look at the replays and find out

You're most definetely doing something wrong

[flint plaza]

great
reply on my dmpls

[stone lava]

could someone help me to learn a speed flip ?

[cyan sage]

When your team gets scored on, its the mistake from all players in the team that it happened.

When one player messes up, its the job from the other to fix said mistake so they don't get scored on.
You explain pretty detailed what mistakes your randoms do in your matches.

That means you can prepare for those mistakes.

Think about what you could have done slightly before and after the player mistake to prevent from getting scored on.

As stupid it sounds but you gotta babysit a lil bit.

Does anyone have any tips for me cuz I'm stuck in d2 and I feel like I'm matching up against cracked players but also maybe I'm playing bad idk my peak is c2 but that was in season 7 and I took a break and started again end of last season

Can anyone help?

[signal lintel]

I'm guessing that's a big part of the problem, playing defensively doesn't mean sitting on defense. You need to maintain a 2v2 situation on offense to pressure opponents etc. I can discuss this in detail if you want to DM and/or send a replay

[agile arrow]

1s

[signal lintel]

Half your teammates are better than you, that's how solo queue works (unless you've barely played ranked 2s this season). Try to figure out what your own flaws are, you're doing other things just as bad as what your teammates do wrong

[obtuse patio]

Thats because theres people who play casual only and they are like 1500 in cas while they are like 600 in ranke

[signal lintel]

They aren't those ranks in casual so it's not relevant. Just like going into ranked 1s and getting matched against someone who's a very different rank in 2s

[cyan sage]

Best example is 1s D2-3 90% of matches are against player that are gc in 2s

[signal lintel]

D2 in 2s? Just play ranked 1s and 2s if you want to improve, unless you are focusing on 3s

[cyan sage]

1s and 2s

[ruby merlin]

does somebody wanna play in custom a 1v1 and train me?

im silver 3

[signal lintel]

1s means 1v1, 2s means 2v2, 3s means 3v3 🙂

[ruby merlin]

add me my user is BreadSliceGaminfoff

[signal lintel]

Ok so if you want to improve you should play both ranked 1s and ranked 2s

[ruby merlin]

wait message me on dis on priv

[delicate dragon]

[cyan sage]

You have car, drive car, see ball, hit ball.

[calm zinc]

can anyone gc1 coach hel;p me learn to flip reset with my screenshare later

[mellow wyvern]

any1 down to give tips to a d1 or coach maybe for free?

[signal lintel]

Doesn't matter, but I think most people do

Pogo bounces your car up into the air, and you don't hit the ball at the same time. Plan B is basically a shot. Just search YouTube or something

[cyan sage]

[calm zinc]

lmfao

[cyan sage]

who can teach me how to do an air dribble i am so close i can show u a clip of me trying to air dribble

me doing air dribbles for 2 hours and i hear the word ''try more'' i am litterly dead atm

and its 2:am

no i didnt ask if u did ask

cuz i keep doing the exact same mistake

[torn token]

any gc+ player that can watch replays and tweak my game? im c2

[bitter talon]

anyone gc+ that got double resets down want to help me

[cyan sage]

have u tried doing an penta musty without doing a single mistake?

[hearty path]

what part u need help with

[bitter talon]

getting the second reset in a way that i can keep control or at least shoot it better

[hearty path]

u dodging or stalling

[bitter talon]

no stall

[torn token]

any gc+ player that can watch replays and tweak my game? im c2

[waxen sky]

Are sting pops easier or harder than pogos? Idk how to sting pop

[bitter talon]

im on controller im down to learn stalls but i know its inconsistent

[hearty path]

sting pops way easier

[cyan sage]

yeah it is

[waxen sky]

Can anyone explain how to sting pop?

[bitter talon]

dms are open if u wanna talk

[cyan sage]

u said then try not to make that mistake then if so then make a penta musty without doing a mistake

[hearty path]

half flip into the ground then delay the release

[cyan sage]

ppl spent thousands of hours on this game i have 23 hours on this game sum pro's has 10000 hours

[stark pasture]

go talk somewhere else this in a tips channele

leave him alone hes just asking for help

[cyan sage]

bro all he said is then dont make that mistake how is that help that is just ''starting an argue''

[stark pasture]

shh?

[waxen sky]

I probably have over 1000 hours and I am only D1 in 2s lol

[cyan sage]

if u look at channel name it says gameplay-tips not giving impossible tips that u can not do

then go ahead do an penty musty and dont do any mistakes

okay do an google pixel musty and dont do any mistakes thats possible?

[stark pasture]

Anyone have tips for a silver 1 in 2s?

[cyan sage]

no did i say that?

and when did i say that?

[stark pasture]

ok but most of the time my teamates sell

[hearty path]

yea at silver u legit just gotta play u need time

[stark pasture]

k

thank you ima go play

[cyan sage]

focus on hitting the ball hard

when did i say i never did it atleast once i, doin it like 10% of the time i try

[woeful helm]

what mechanics should i focus on practicing, i can consistently half flip and wave dash off walls/goal and use them to recover. i can dribble from one goal to another a bit consistently

it's hard to get a decent shot off when my teammates can't center the ball, but that's why i'm trying to get better at solo plays

[hearty path]

so center for ur tm

if u have worse tm, play for them more

[woeful helm]

i try, but gotta watch for big clears as well

[hearty path]

what rank u btw

[cyan sage]

u said (THEN DONT DO THAT MISTAKE) U think im doin the mistake on purpose if i were able to not do the mistake i woudlnt do the mistake duh

[woeful helm]

plat2 in 2s out of placement, g3 in 3s

[woeful helm]

i also play for my high school team but my tm8s are champ so i also want to be able to cover for myself

[cyan sage]

then u can do an penty musty and if u do a mistake u will learn from it instantly and then u can do an penty musty thats how it works?

[woeful helm]

huh? how am i supposed to shoot the ball if i don't have it, that's my point

that's why i want to get better at controlling the ball so i don't need to rely on passes

[cyan sage]

well he said ( Then dont do that mistake again) I TRIED NOT DOING THAT MISTAKE LIKE A THOUSAND TIMES

[hearty path]

that doesnt mean what he said is wrong lmao

that means u kept making the same mistake

[cyan sage]

i did this for 2 hours i am sure

[woeful helm]

also what's a good aerial sensitivity and dodge deadzone, i get more backflips than good launches in my aerials

[hearty path]

its preference

if u get more backflips u need higher controller or dodge deadzone

[fiery temple]

Should i bind air roll and power slide to same button?

[woeful helm]

i think my aerial might be too high tho, i got 2.5 aerial

[hearty path]

i play 10 10

i promise its whatever ur comfy with

[cyan sage]

if im doing a mistake ofc i am trying to fix the mistake thats like he says then to fix the mistake OFC I AM TRYING TO FIX THE MISTAKE BUT I JUST CANT IF IM NOT TRYING TO FIX THE MISTAKE THEN WHY WOULD I BE IN HERE AND ASK FOR HELP IF IM NOT EVEN TRYING and then when i said its 2:am he said I did not ask?? like all i did was ask for help not to start an argue and plus i asked

[woeful helm]

if the ball is near me then so are my teammates sadly, but i'll try

can you recommend any good shooting packs tho, idk how to do it in free play

[cyan sage]

i play rocket league and trying to fix the mistake meanwhile u guys respond use ur brain please

[hearty path]

if literally ur tms bringing u down u can get better individually and carry

[woeful helm]

alr thanks

[hearty path]

all my ogs know about the grind pre training packs

ye

[cyan sage]

now after i send this message im going to go do air dribbles and when u responded and i did my air dribble done i go into discord and answer ur message so i am training when ur typing

[hearty path]

ppl also too scared of losing, in game u should be trying to execute what uve learned

doesnt matter if u lose 5, improve and u will win again

[signal lintel]

1.3 aerial sens is good. You can go a bit higher if you want but don't go lower

[cyan sage]

i asked for tips on how to make it a lil bit easier not exactly how to do it

[hearty path]

or faulty practice

in terms of execution i think if u learn a mech wrong and only do it that wrong way ull never just auto get better

wdym

which is the point, faulty practice

[signal lintel]

You lose some control in the corner of your analog stick if you go below a certain sens, and that is usually around 1.3 but depends on the controller. For example, if you move the stick all the way up and to the left, it isn't actually all the way up or all the way to the left

[cyan sage]

BRO HE ASKED FOR FREAKING TIPS NOT ON HITTING THE DOUBLE RESET NOT ON HOW TO LEARN HOW TO DO IT BRO ISTG SOMETHING IS REAL WRONG WITH UR BRAIN READ THE WHOLE MESSAGE BRO

[hearty path]

my point is this, say someone tries to teach someone a mech, but tell it the wrong way, that person will try to keep doing the same wrong thing to only have to figure out they were doing something completely wrong

[signal lintel]

Just pull up any controller tester that shows the values of the analog sticks. Or use halfwaydead's tool online which is made for rocket league

[cyan sage]

maybe its a setting then thats a tip to turn it on??? tf u on about

[hearty path]

and again, its a response to u saying u only need time to learn something by doing it over and over, i think its just as important what u do in that time as well

[signal lintel]

@small valley can you just tell them how to do it already and stop helping them learn

[cyan sage]

being on 10 fps with max graphics on fortnite and if im not on highest graphics in fortnite im on 120 fps so waht ur saying rn is that fps doesnt matter i wanan see u do an air dribble and being on 1 fps if fps doesnt matter

U LITTERLY SAID FPS DOES NOT MATTER WTF U ON ABOUT

[signal lintel]

I don't think you're understanding, the point is that you need sens above 1.0 to compensate. If the analog stick is in the top left corner, it is like 77% up and 77% left, so you need sens to multiply that to get it to 100%. Otherwise, you can't turn left and pitch down at the same time at full "speed"

[cyan sage]

MAYBE THEY TURNED ON ALL THE SETTINGS THEY KNOW THAT BOOSTS UR FPS BUT THEYRE STILL ON LOW FPS SO THEY ASK IF ANYONE ELSE KNOWS AN ANOTHER SETTING THAT CAN GIVE U MORE FPS

[signal lintel]

I can find it and DM you if you want. It is associated with a YouTube video on the Rocket Science channel

[cyan sage]

if u also use common sense then ofc i will try not to do the mistake i just did

no cuz the setting can be an huge advantage if ur on low fps and enable a setting that gives u like an 10 fps bonus

solo q 3s is unplayable

[signal lintel]

@cyan sage you shouldn't be changing your settings just for certain mechanics unless you are a freestyler, idk if that's the plan here

[cyan sage]

it is

blud its imposible without temmates

2s is easy
