[brisk orbit]

Any kbm tutorial youtubers? for higher level mechanics

[void heath]

@brisk orbit Just switch to controller

[cosmic gull]

Hey guys! I am looking for a coach, I just came back to the game after about a year and need help to learn back and get better than before! If you are up to help hit me with a DM : D (also be EU)

[brisk orbit]

ikr

i have over 1k hours

[void heath]

It's easier

[brisk orbit]

on kbm

i am NOT switching atp

[void heath]

What rank r u

[brisk orbit]

d3 - c1

around 1070 mmr

[void heath]

What kind of mechs

@pulsar shale dm me

[brisk orbit]

mostly efficient chain resets + some extra groundplay

for funsies

[void heath]

You can try to look at examples setup

Evample

[brisk orbit]

evample has like 2 tutorials

and doesnt use kbm cam anymore 😭

i know how to stall reset but not rapid (consistently)

the diagonal flip feels so weird on kbm

[void heath]

Check ur DMS

[cyan sage]

How to wall chain dash

[hazy shard]

Go on the wall, hold air roll left if ur on the left wall and right if ur on the right then spam jump I think

[nocturne breach]

-> learn to conserve your boost, do not use boost all the time, use for example dashes or flips for gaining speed without boost ( use boost only when you really have to )
-> you can take mini pads instead of big boost most of the time, 33 boost and being in position to receive a pass or score an open net is better than going all the way back for big boost

[teal hawk]

How do you even wall dash. No matter how fast I press it doesn’t dash. I get it sometimes but it seems like mostly luck

[nocturne breach]

autoclick or fastest fingers in the west

[teal hawk]

I play controller

[nocturne breach]

then you have to practice your fingers a bit

[teal hawk]

I can get it around corners. But not in the middle of the wall

[nocturne breach]

i was doing it some time ago, but is better if someone else answers it, i don't really know either now

[lost verge]

Pretty much what ariii said but learn how to read the play and the other players so you can put yourself in the best position possible

[cosmic gull]

Hey guys! I am looking for a coach, I just came back to the game after about a year and need help to learn back and get better than before! If you are up to help hit me with a DM : D (also be EU)

[teal hawk]

And do I have to hold down air roll the whole time. Like I cannot not hold it

[cyan sage]

Its not that difficult.
Appjack made a nice tutoriql for single dashes.
Thats just as usefull

[teal hawk]

Oh thanks

[nocturne breach]

yess, that's pro advice, you really have to pay attention to your opponents and teammates more, people focus only on the ball mostly in those ranks, which is not really ok

[cosmic gull]

.

[nocturne breach]

what rank

[cosmic gull]

idk im unranked

[nocturne breach]

and what rank have you been before

[cosmic gull]

a year ago i think i was like low champ

[nocturne breach]

i think playing casual and doing a bit of freeplay will help you get back on tracks

[nocturne breach]

controller isn't easier than kbm

i would never recommend someone that has already played a lot on kbm to switch to controller ( same goes for the other way around )

is just a matter or preference

[void heath]

I was kidding once I saw his hours I was kidding. That's why I gave him the keyboard setup I like

[nocturne breach]

oh i see haha

[hazy shard]

What’s the best way to defend the net?
As in positioning because sometimes I find myself in the middle and I just get done because of it in d3 games where I’m against champs

[lost verge]

You typically want to shadow at the opposite end of the net from the play so if they were on the right you'd be on left and vice versa but it's all situational and can be a lot different you also want to try to cover as much of an angle as you can so they don't put it behind you

[nocturne breach]

backpost rotation

for 2s and 3s

1s or 1v1 situation in both 2s and 3s: shadow defense

but shadow defense must be done properly

[unreal token]

anyone got tips for any useful mechanics for me (I am champ with no mechanics)

[nocturne breach]

many people think they are doing shadow defense when they aren't

[nocturne breach]

powershots, hookshots, bounce dribble

and hitting open nets

[unreal token]

what is hookshot?

[nocturne breach]

search it up on youtube, is easier if you visualize it, although you must have a lot of space in 2s to do it

[unreal token]

okay thx

[nocturne breach]

3s is absolutely nope ( unless the setup is already given to you ), but is mostly useful for 1s

[lost verge]

If you're really set on learning something specifically mechy learning how to air dribble good early on will make things easier in the future otherwise everything ariii said

[nocturne breach]

gotta train them on the ol' reliable air dribble bump

bring back the meta

[lost verge]

True gotta set some dribble bump merchants loose in the wilds of champ

[nocturne breach]

hahahaha lmaooo

so true

gotta let the experiments break free

[zenith delta]

I hate air dribble bump merchants

[nocturne breach]

and i took it personally

[lost verge]

Gotta do what ya gotta do sometimes

[zenith delta]

Cringe gameplay

[nocturne breach]

well, the opponent will be cringing yes

but your heart will dance with joy

[lost verge]

But the bumper will be laughing

[nocturne breach]

true haha

[zenith delta]

Very annoying to play against someone who only goes for bumps

[zenith delta]

No 🤬

[cyan sage]

GC2

[cyan sage]

I dont use air roll left or right, only to half flip

[lost verge]

Have you watched any tutorials on it

[cyan sage]

Yeah, tried it, it rarely works, I guess I gotta practis it more

Do all of you use air roll left or right to do wall dashes or are there people like me that dont use it (also not in aireals), like the pro Firstkiller for example

[lost verge]

From what I've heard from much better players since I'm inconsistent with them is it's almost entirely about how fast you're spamming jump so just get used to the motion on wall you need to make before jumping and spam the heck out of it

[lost verge]

I don't use air rolll for wall dashing and you don't need to

[cyan sage]

Alright im too slow prob

[lost verge]

The airroll is just so you're sideflipping consistently

[cyan sage]

Yeah I know but I have it binded to square so thats no option

Most people have it binded to r1

I have scoreboard on r1

Air roll left on square

Air roll on L1

[shy path]

i dont even have regular air roll bound anymore

i just have left and right

[cyan sage]

Boost circle

[cyan sage]

Whattt

How do you even adjust in game

[shy path]

with air roll left and right lmao

[cyan sage]

In flight like more precise

An angle

It seems like its limiting you then

[shy path]

i dont think it is

[cyan sage]

But I guess its all preference

[shy path]

it feels better, i actually fel like i have more control

[deft depot]

What’s the best way to practice like wall reads and rotations? I feel like I often play too defensive

[cyan sage]

Its al about what youre used to, if that works for you perfect

[lost verge]

Like reading the ball bounces off walls?

[shy path]

freeplay and adapting to your teammates and being aware of where everyone is on the field

[deft depot]

Yeah, I struggle with getting a solid read and most of the times I just end up flying past it

[shy path]

oops that meant to go to unknown

[cyan sage]

Wall reads> trainingpacks

Rotation > watch gameplay and focus on how he rotates and watch your teammates movements,if teammate is back you push and otherwise

[zenith delta]

You need it

[shy path]

no im good

[lost verge]

Just boom the ball as hard as you can off walls in freeplay and catch up to it as fast as you possibly can to get a lot of power again and try putting in in spots that will be hard for you to read if you can

[zenith delta]

So how do you take power shots or make adjustments on recovery

[cyan sage]

Boys, play 1s

Ultimate way to improve

[shy path]

i just use air roll left and right

[cyan sage]

In all aspects

[zenith delta]

Who uses directional air roll to take a power shot bro

[shy path]

me

[cyan sage]

Thats what Im saying

I guess he is used to it

[lost verge]

I think 2s is much more beneficial with 1s as a good solo improvement sidequest

[zenith delta]

What’s wrong with you 💀

[cyan sage]

What rank are you @shy path

[shy path]

usually like mid gc2

[zenith delta]

His shots probably won’t be as accurate

[shy path]

its the same as using regular air roll like what

you just rotate your car

[zenith delta]

It’s not the same

[cyan sage]

Ive never seen a player that doesnt use normal airrol

How do you angle the car like 25° or som you know

[shy path]

idk i just do it

[cyan sage]

Its not that precise

[shy path]

it works for me...

[cyan sage]

I guess if you reached gc2

Youre doing well

[zenith delta]

Do you play 1s?

[mortal quail]

Luckily RL is a very free flow game, you dont need to be precise to be good

[lost verge]

About rotations you most likely aren't reading the play or other players touches fast enough to be on offense as much so try to pay as much attention to what other players are doing on the field as possible to try and stay relevant

[shy path]

no

[cyan sage]

I agree

[zenith delta]

Makes sense

[shy path]

im not bad at it though lmao

i just dont enjoy the game mode

[cyan sage]

I wanna see you play now tbh@shy path

[shy path]

we can make that happen

[zenith delta]

Especially off kickoff situations you need normal air roll to shoot the ball

[cyan sage]

I wanna see you take an angled power shot and shadow defense

And see your kickoff

[shy path]

why are yall acting like i cant shoot the ball LMAO

[cyan sage]

Bcs its not making sense in my head

[shy path]

if i couldnt shoot the ball properly i wouldnt be playing how i am

[zenith delta]

It’s probably weird cuz you don’t use normal air roll lol

[lost verge]

I'm unsure about this but I'm pretty sure directional air rolls can rotate every single way normal can and then some so if he has both bound he can reach more than with a single one and standard bound

[shy path]

^

[zenith delta]

Surprised a gc player would do that

[shy path]

directional air roll makes you rotate differntly but if you dont move the joystick its like a regular air roll until you move it

if that makes sense

[cyan sage]

Gotta have a mega brain then to merge these both air rolls to have the same as standard

[lost verge]

If you need to make small movements forward or backward mid roll you can just let go of air roll to adjust

[shy path]

im fair better at using air roll right than left tbh

[lost verge]

You really do it's kind of impressive if he's good enough to use both confidently

[cyan sage]

Isnt this way more difficult thzn it has to be, like just holding airrol and turning it to the angle you want haha

[shy path]

LMAO

[cyan sage]

Yeah very intresting

[shy path]

i used to struggle remembering when i need to let go of the button cause i used to over rotate a lot

[lost verge]

Yes to get good at until it becomes natural but at a certain level the different angles he reaches could be unexpected and give him more options to use for outplays

[shy path]

@cyan sage im down to play some later if you want

[cyan sage]

Sure

[dry marsh]

jus hold it the whole time

[shy path]

?

[dry marsh]

just hold the button the whole time

[dry marsh]

"you dont need to be precise to be good" is exactly what someone who isnt precise would say

[shy path]

i do lol

[nocturne breach]

and what you said is exactly what someone feeling called out by that would say

[mortal quail]

Your legit the most random player ive ever seen

[dry marsh]

Then come coach me

[mortal quail]

Never on

[dry marsh]

real, ero needs to coach me

[mortal quail]

And im busy

[dry marsh]

im on rn, you owe me like 400 coaching sessions after nrg lost

[mortal quail]

2 years ago

It has expired

[nocturne breach]

now you gave me the idea to put an expiration date on all the bets that i've lost

[severe arch]

perfect idea

[nocturne breach]

reall

[steady elm]

Tips for silver?

[cyan sage]

Get better..

[steady elm]

how😭

[pure patio]

play the game, watch youtube tutorials "basic mechanics"

[steady elm]

kk

[dry marsh]

hit ball

[tawny lynx]

Learn how to power shot and defend

You should be able to get out of silver after that

Also learn how to do proper kickoffs

[stable shoal]

I’m hardstuck diamond ex champ got to d3 and now I’m one loss away from plat been like this since season 2 any tips to help out

[nocturne breach]

put 200 hours into the game

[steady elm]

Alright

[nocturne breach]

when you hit the ball, make it go exactly where you want

[steady elm]

Know how to powershot/aerial just need to work on defending

[nocturne breach]

also learn backpost rotation

[nocturne breach]

learn backpost rotation

[tawny lynx]

Go in to free play and practice blocking shots

[nocturne breach]

or defending train packs, i forgot these actually help the new players a lot

[tawny lynx]

Can you send me a few

I also need to improve my defence

[cyan sage]

Search on youtube

[tawny lynx]

K

[cyan sage]

[cyan sage]

When someone meet a pro what doe sign? Mean

[severe arch]

sign their steam, aka comment on their profile

[cyan sage]

Ohh ok

[wicked steppe]

What's the best camra setting for air dribble

[lost verge]

Whatever settings you're comfortable on as long as they're decent just look up videos about camera settings and you'll get the gist of what good ones look like. No camera settings are going to make you better at car and ball control though you'll just need to practice

[stoic topaz]

Any tips for a D3 who just got demoted to plat 2 cuz he hasn't played for a year?...

[cyan sage]

Can someone send me auto cam settings that work for a silver player lol

Im using wide cam as of now and doing fine

[timid hound]

whats your definition of good

[stable kettle]

hey can anybody coach i just started playing and i rly dont know what to do, lost 17 won 3 so far

[zenith delta]

Idk if a coach would benefit if you just started

[lunar axle]

Where the grandchamps at

[zenith delta]

I’m here bro

[stable kettle]

well fair enough im just not moving efficient enough and every smurf in dis whole game is tryna get me it seems lol

[bold cypress]

a coach wouldnt benefit you, just play thats the only way to learn how to play, only thing i would say is to look up vids of rotations, at the point that your just starting just try and have fun, if your looking to rank up you can wait down the road for a coach

[stable kettle]

k my main goal rn is to hit gold lol

rn silver

[bold cypress]

great only way to rank up is try and get your ball control better

[stable kettle]

k

[bold cypress]

like try going into training and keep the ball on your car

[stable kettle]

ye thats something i have alot of problems with rn

[nocturne breach]

you have to play a bit more to get used to the game again

[nocturne breach]

put in 200 hours

do training packs, tutorials, etc.

and play casuals

[lost verge]

It takes a lot of practice to get to a level where you're confident on the ball I suggest looking at some high level play to see what players are capable of for motivation when you're new to the game it's most enjoyable when played with friends or other players in discord that you have fun with gl on your improvement and hope you stick with the game it can be very rewarding

[nocturne breach]

he is gonna be confused if he sees a ssl playing lmao

[stoic topaz]

arii being a chad

[nocturne breach]

few months ago i watched one of my replays back when i was bronze 1 div 3

it brings back memories

the real opponent in that game was my cam settings

[nocturne breach]

thanks, fellow chad

[cyan sage]

this so real

when i watch like plat games back 3 years im questioning how i enjoyed playing like that

[fresh stone]

Any tips for a bronze player I just started

I mean I can hit the ball and kind of do an aerial but I need tips to get better

[nocturne breach]

real

[nocturne breach]

the (g)old times

[slim hill]

I need help I’m in gold will anyone help me

[lost verge]

What do you need help with

[lost verge]

Really just play more and do training packs when you get more comfortable people in plat-champ have hundreds of hours in the game and you most likely just started playing, before anyone can give you advice you need to improve your ability to impact the games you're in

This is also really good advice

[stray sandal]

Is rocket league down

[lost verge]

Also a good controller scheme can go a long way

[lost verge]

I believe so

[stray sandal]

Oh ffs

How long that gonna be

[lost verge]

Too long typically a couple hours

[fresh stone]

I’m on switch lol

Ty tho

[nocturne breach]

the pink color in a crowd of gray colors, be proud of urself

[lost verge]

Do they have 0 training packs on switch?

[fresh stone]

They do

Idk if there’s a button for right and left air rolls tho

Okay

[red tinsel]

can anyone coach me?

[shy path]

Getting a coach is not useful at all until you’re like a semi pro lol

[red tinsel]

i mean i was c2

and i fell off after yrs of not playing

[shy path]

It isn’t . Unless you want a team coach

[red tinsel]

i just wanna get reviewed by someone good at the game

[shy path]

A personal coach is a waste of money until you’re high in elo

[red tinsel]

dont wanna give money

[shy path]

Just review your replays and look at all the coaching stuff on YouTube

[craggy cave]

Question for high ranked ppl. How often do you use free air roll? I have air roll left and right bound to my bumpers and never use free air roll. Should I though?

[zenith delta]

How to rank up faster tm8s hold me back all the time

[craggy cave]

Prioritize defense

[zenith delta]

I need to facilitate the offense

[zenith delta]

Use free air roll on power shots and recoveries

[lost verge]

I mostly use air roll left for recoveries and normal airroll for changing my direction for specific first touches or shots

[craggy cave]

I find free air roll is great for chaining wave dashes.. but i dont have a button to bind it to 😦 wish I had 3 shoulder buttons

[lost verge]

As long as you have good enough control and reads then coaching is worth it to improve but anyone gc1 and under really shouldn't worry about coaching too much

[lost verge]

You should really be focusing on your control on the ball and reading the play and other players on the field at the rank you're in always try making useful and beneficial touches and you'll rank up

[nocturne breach]

i'd say d3+ or hardstuck in the same rank for more than 2 months of hard grinding

[nocturne breach]

depends on you, i use free air roll for slide on the ground, but i am kbm

[zenith delta]

It’s been 10 seasons am I cooked?

[bold cypress]

have you tryed getting a perm duo?

sometimes that helps

and how much trainin have you been doing

[nocturne breach]

yes

[zenith delta]

No I solo q only

[bold cypress]

maybe thats your prob

[zenith delta]

I’m just used to solo q

[zenith delta]

What do I do dawg

[bold cypress]

what are you in 2s?

[zenith delta]

Idk I should be like gc

[nocturne breach]

it depends on what is your goal in rl haha

[lunar axle]

Any gc or ssl in here

[zenith delta]

1800

[nocturne breach]

what rank is that

[zenith delta]

Gc3/ssl

[nocturne breach]

ssl?

do you play like that rank?

[zenith delta]

Nahhh

[nocturne breach]

why not, what makes you different from them

[zenith delta]

They got more consistent offense tbh

[nocturne breach]

that would be a good thing to work on

to get closer to that level :p

[zenith delta]

This journey is so long bro

[nocturne breach]

to get there you have to be either talented and get there by raw skill

either work hard for it

[lost verge]

Or be built dif like me

[nocturne breach]

whatever the case is, you have to make sure that this is what you really want

because yes, is a long journey, and you don't want to regret the time invested in that

[lost verge]

What rank are you currently

[nocturne breach]

real

[zenith delta]

I’m about to go on a Smurf acc and get my rank up

[lost verge]

Huh why thats not a very 1800 mentality

[zenith delta]

No I want to play 1v1s only on an acc where I won’t worry about my rank

[nocturne breach]

lmao

[zenith delta]

Only thing is it takes forever to get ur rank up so that’s why I’ve yet to do it

[lost verge]

1800+ players grind almost non stop on their mains you just gotta keep playing on ur main and comp anxiety won't be a problem there's also ways to hide your rank on bakkes mod so you won't see it go up or down

[zenith delta]

No bakkes mod I’m on console

[nocturne breach]

i remember that d2 guy that had 1k games played in 1s in a season

[lost verge]

Either way if you want solid improvement playing on mains a good place to start you can't be hopping on an alt every time things get tough in higher ranks obviously you can improve on an alt but this is a hurdle you need to get over before ranking up

[nocturne breach]

cant imagine what he has been through

but he certainly isnt scared to queue 1s anymore

[lost verge]

Ummmm unlucky

[zenith delta]

It’s been an eternity in this rank

[lost verge]

Teammates holding him back fr

[nocturne breach]

true true

[nocturne breach]

which rank was that

[zenith delta]

Gc

[lost verge]

Earlier you said you should be gc so does that mmean you're around champ?

Or did you genuinely not know?

[zenith delta]

Nah I’m gc

Just wish I wasn’t now

[lost verge]

Why

[zenith delta]

Want something new

[lost verge]

You just want something new? Not better or worse?

[zenith delta]

Such a long rank tbh

[lost verge]

I was stuck in gc1 for 5k hours believe me I understand

[zenith delta]

What rank are you now

[lost verge]

gc2 can definitely get it up soon as well with how fast my consistency is improving

[nocturne breach]

is not a bad thing to be stuck in gc1, at least you get some good rewards ..

[lost verge]

Nah I was so mad when I didn't get the ssl spray paint banner

[zenith delta]

We are like the same rank

[nocturne breach]

lmao

[zenith delta]

Atleast I hit a new peak in 1s and 2s last season

So maybe I’m getting somewhere

[finite nacelle]

Bruh, you guys speak about gc is bad IM DiAmOnD

[lost verge]

Yup improvement is slow have you been really practicing your control

[zenith delta]

I’ve been in here for awhile

[nocturne breach]

when i was playing in gc2 lobbies with my low gc3 friend i was so confused, the opponents were super consistent on everything, but like, you had time to do your stuff as they don't insta challenge everything, and in a way is easier to score

[zenith delta]

Yea trying to get better catches on the backboard

[nocturne breach]

back when i was gc1

[finite nacelle]

I mean, im lil bith of freestyeler

[lost verge]

It's not about how bad it is it's about how many hours we've spent there do you know how many hours 5k is it's A LOT it was a nightmare

[zenith delta]

I talk trash about these ranks but I know they are really good to most people tbh

[lost verge]

Huhh must be a eu thing because in gc2 they do nothing but chase in my lobbies until you get to gc3

[finite nacelle]

I now but when you get the ToXiC diamond lobbies that is worst thing in diamond

[lost verge]

Thats also true our standards are bound to be much different from a lower ranks because we're already this rank and want to go much higher

[nocturne breach]

oh yes, eu is kinda passive lmao

[nocturne breach]

mute the chat

dont let the toxicity get to you

[zenith delta]

So why do all of my EU friends play so aggressive

[nocturne breach]

idk, depends on the rank i guess lol

[zenith delta]

They are 1700+ but I think they are aggressive

[nocturne breach]

i rarely get aggressive opponents in ranked

[lost verge]

I mean different people exist and it all depends on the rank if they're higher they'll be more confident to play fast and if they're lower they'll be dumb and try to play fast

[nocturne breach]

but when i q nae ( questionable reasons ) they are really chasey

[finite nacelle]

From what region are you guys

[nocturne breach]

eu

[lost verge]

Yeah people focus really hard on speed since it carries kinda hard even if you mess up till like gc1

[lost verge]

I'm na

[nocturne breach]

true, we do things differently on eu tho lol

[lost verge]

Yeah you guys try to play it more organized and controlled in lower ranks like an actual sport but na just cares about winning so when people have bad control in lower ranks they just chal and it works

[finite nacelle]

Im from Croatia. NYC has more people

[pine pollen]

what mechanics should i learn to try and get from plat to diamond in 2's

[ivory wren]

hit bol

consistently

[finite nacelle]

And defense, trust me

[ivory wren]

fr

[nocturne breach]

no offense but i am glad that i am not playing on na lol cant imagine the level of stress playing in that kind of lobbies

[zenith delta]

Wdym

[nocturne breach]

i mean that i'd rather play in more "defensive" lobbies rather than chasey lobbies

[lost verge]

Everything really you are probably really inconsistent with everything the best thing you can learn is to pick up small pads and save boost while reading the touches people are making since people are really slow then taking shots off their bad touches to instantly rank up but if you want to improve long term you need to just hit training packs on defense and ariel shots while practicing dribbling in training

[ivory wren]

oce lobbies>>>

u more time queing than playing

[pine pollen]

thanks

[zenith delta]

Defensive lobbies are boring

Same thing with players that only slow play in 1v1

[lost verge]

I love the chasey lobbies because they're really good for practicing outplays especially if they're decent

Even in eu the higher you go people will turn kind of chasey to punish poor control so it just means more practice in that regard

[ivory wren]

if u wanna win in 1s below gc it is indeed boring

but u dont improve like that

[zenith delta]

So boring bruh

Boring to look at and defend

[ivory wren]

it is a double edged sword

u win but u dont improve

everything has a price

[zenith delta]

Not even a guaranteed win tbh

[nocturne breach]

u are improving that kind of gameplay

[lost verge]

tbh if you're in a rank slow plays are consistently happening in 1s then you gotta learn how to counter them

[ivory wren]

that kind of gameplay has limits

[nocturne breach]

true

the only problem is your offense tho

which can be improved

so i dont see the issue

[hard lantern]

I'm stuck in gold how do I get out

[ivory wren]

not a good idea to play a high paced game like rocket league as if it was real football tbh

if yk what i mean

[shy path]

@cyan sage see, it works

[cyan sage]

yeah

respect

[carmine schooner]

tips to get to gold (im silver)

[cyan sage]

get better

[carmine schooner]

how

[cyan sage]

just get better bro

[carmine schooner]

how

[hard lantern]

Showed I use standard controls on ps5 when doing mech

[tropic scarab]

usually you just need to space out from your teammates, as long as you can cover as much area as a team youll be doing good, so yea just dont clump with teammates :)

[tropic scarab]

focus on the basic basics, lots of freeplay, learning to control the ball on top of your car, and learning how to flip into the ball and get power, hitting the ball hard will do wonders for you

[tropic scarab]

^ lol

then hit ball better? 😅

hard to say exactly without seeing your gameplay unfortunately, but typically keeping momentum and covering space is super important @cyan sage

[valid holly]

Does anyone have advice for me because I’m stuck in silver

[modest turtle]

hi im in high d1 rn and i wanna get to champ in 2v2 as a 2 man, what should i focus on? flics or passes? airials or ground movment? and stuff like that

[desert pelican]

focus on bounce dribbles and being able to save the ball

[tropic scarab]

focus on the basic basics, lots of freeplay, learning to control the ball on top of your car, and learning how to flip into the ball and get power, hitting the ball hard will do wonders for you

[tropic scarab]

probably work on your ground movement like dribbling and fast aerials, besides just mechanical things try to pay more attention to your opponents to judge when you can be more agressive and challenge or when you wait for them to make the first move

[modest turtle]

should i try to learn to pinch it agienst the wall not into goal but just to clear it?

[desert pelican]

no nobody does that it isnt consistent at all

also that gives away possesion just keep the ball close to you and try to get it past defenders

[tropic scarab]

sorta what the guy above me said @modest turtle, at higher levels its a decent way to relieve pressure if ur consistent, but usually its better if you keep it close and play for a 50/50

try more mate, wont learn straight away, it takes some time :)

[desert pelican]

@tropic scarab are gc tournoments easy to win if your c2-c3?

[tropic scarab]

its doable, especially if youre with teammates, depends on the luck of the draw? not sure tbh, havent played one in over a year

[desert pelican]

k im bout to sweat for a win this seasons

[tropic scarab]

are u eu? i dont play a lot but maybe can help u win one sometime

[desert pelican]

im na but ping dont matter

[tropic scarab]

send me a friend req on ttvNiklas, maybe sometime we can do one

[desert pelican]

gotcha

[gleaming apex]

i'm almost GC in 3s and 2s but i suck at rumble because i'm so hard on my controllers that i'm always unintentionally activating my specials. not sure how to fix it

[tropic scarab]

just rebind the button for ur powerups?

[umbral bluff]

Does ping make much of a difference in rocket league

[gleaming apex]

good idea. just gotta figure out which button

[fresh geode]

yes

[zenith delta]

Bro thinks he’s grand plat 😭

[fresh geode]

bru who are u

[zenith delta]

Ur not grand plat

[fresh geode]

ik

what abt it

[zenith delta]

Ur not me bud

[flat gull]

Hi

[tropic scarab]

yea idk, any of the 4 or the bumpers, worst case scenario can be the share button

[wind mural]

im trying to learn how to areiel and i was wondering if its ok to hold air roll andif i should even be learning it at silver 2 also im on controller

[zenith delta]

Tips for ranking up?

[cosmic perch]

Anyone got tips for switch players?

[wind mural]

anyone have tips for learning ariels

[cosmic perch]

Hmmmm

I say always try to air roll when ur in the air

Even if u miss

[wind mural]

i miss alot. i can nail and pinch it in goal in training but i cant do it at all in comp

[dusky fiber]

i mean i m not on switch but anything specific u need?

[dusky fiber]

most important thing dont overuse training packs, there usually the set up is done for u, use more freeplay so u set it up yourself that way u learn it

[cosmic perch]

Just the little stuff like clearing out to left or right and rotation methods

[dusky fiber]

no need to learn arials especially air roll

[cosmic perch]

Yea

[dusky fiber]

what rank are u

[cosmic perch]

Diamond 2 div 2

Mind the switch part lol

[wind mural]

everyone doing ariels and im not keeping up

[dusky fiber]

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

[dusky fiber]

no need in silver trust me, first: dont chase behind the ball rather be more defensive. second: get better with powershots on goal, that alone will get u to gold and plat

[cosmic perch]

Ok thanks

[wind mural]

ok ty but what do i do when i need to save it in the air cause im terrible with that

[quaint lynx]

W mans fr

[wind mural]

also i heard my cousin say slow is fast and alwoays take ur time

[dusky fiber]

learn the basics, try using the packs for that, not much about arial rather the way u jump and small boost adjustments, and positioning

[cosmic perch]

Also I’ve been stuck at diamond and want to hot champion I did it in season five but left the game and just started playing again

[wind mural]

ok ty. ill try this stuff bye yall

[dusky fiber]

yh but in silver they will prob chase much so depends if u can deal with that, powershots on target are very useful in silver if u can get it in the direction of the goal

[fresh geode]

who cares

[dusky fiber]

u got this man takes some time, focus on the things i said and u will be good to go

[cosmic perch]

Hey ty Man U really no ur stuff appreciate it

[dusky fiber]

np man if u need something else just hit me up

[cosmic perch]

I will ty

[wind mural]

man i cant get out of silver

well time to grind

[nova fox]

If anyone wants help critiquing your in game decisions or improving your mechanics (Freestyling mechanics or Competitive mechanics) anywhere from air dribbling to quad flip resets in a PM, DM me NAE.

[cyan sage]

me too

[wispy charm]

if anyone else here plays on switch, how do you deal with it being way harder to do mechs (d3 btw)

[wispy charm]

I'm probably like 90 game sense 10% mechs but it's impossible to rank up

[hazy shard]

Until champ should I stop trying to go for more mechanical stuff?
I can occasionally hit some stuff in games but other times it stuffs me up

[chilly hemlock]

You don’t need mecs to climb. Just be solid

I hit GC without being able to half flip 😅

[hazy shard]

Actual?

I can speedflip which I think helps
But for some reason I’m always seeing someone in d3 hitting something crazy

[chilly hemlock]

Yeah being serious. I could barely air dribble and never used half flip. Was playing on ps4 with v sync on too and a 40 inch tv

You want to just practice the fundamentals and get them down. If you can’t do a mech 9/10 times don’t go for it

[hazy shard]

I played against two supposedly d3s last night and one of them hit a ground to air flip reset

[hazy shard]

Yeah true

I do tend to play more simple in comp

[chilly hemlock]

I still can’t flip reset and I touched GC last season. I’m legit the least mechanical person I know who’s touched that rank

Have you watched flakes road to ssl

He explains it so well

[hazy shard]

Nah I’ll check it out tho

Ngl I do feel like I try to do stuff I shouldn’t

[chilly hemlock]

Highly recommend. If you play 2s then watch it from your rank I would say

[hazy shard]

Was playing with a guy who used to be gc last night and he said in diamond you just gotta let them make mistakes and capitalize

[frigid jackal]

can anyone help me get steam workshop maps on epic games please dm me(i have bakkes mod)

[chilly hemlock]

Granted he is already super clean and consistent but he made GC players look stupid whilst using no mechanics

[chilly hemlock]

100%. Flakes demonstrates that. Players will legit pass you the ball all the time if you just have good positioning

[hazy shard]

I mean I like messing around in cas going for risky stuff but then sometimes it goes over to comp

[chilly hemlock]

Do you play 2s or 3s as your main grind

[hazy shard]

He also said something about leaving the ball in the corner, is that something you agree with too?
I did kinda see it as the players I was against kept hitting it in the corners and wasting boost

[hazy shard]

2s, can’t deal with 3s lmao
Can’t ever get boost

[chilly hemlock]

Yup your corner is the safest place for the ball to be. Always hit it there as the chance of them scoring from it is low.

Then if they try to push you and take a 50 in your corner it will always go out to midfield which then gives your team a 2v1 as he’s stuck in your corner

[fiery temple]

I allwaays drive past the ball when trying to dribble any tips

[chilly hemlock]

So for you on offense don’t rush their corner and try to force the ball as it will go past you and leave last man in a bad spot

[chilly hemlock]

Slow down your gameplay a bit if you always go past it. Practice in free play or with training packs

[hazy shard]

Gotcha
If I hit it in the corner it’s normally just tryna force it mid for my tm8 but I can always recover in time

[fiery temple]

thx

[hazy shard]

If you’re on pc get bakkes mod and you can go into free training and make it slowmo, helped out with my dribbling

[chilly hemlock]

Yeah exactly. Better option is just to shadow the play and let them pass to your team.

You can turn it slo-mo on console too

I forgot about that

[hazy shard]

Its so useful for learning how to do stuff

[chilly hemlock]

Yeah 100%. You always want to be applying pressure whether it’s by challenging or shadowing.

[hazy shard]

Yeah i normally stay in net bc i don’t trust my teammates so I let them get it out

I am learning to pressure opponents tho, into hitting early and defense

I feel like 1s would be the best, 3s especially in diamond is a mess ngl

[cyan sage]

I just started playing rl again for school esports and I need some tips so if anyone could help me that would be great ps4 player

[frigid jackal]

i need a tutor im plat 1 dm me

[hazy shard]

Actually yeah that makes sense

[static crane]

yo does anybody want to coach me, i have been stuck in diamond for almost 2 years..

[elfin current]

Can anyone help me out? I am silver 3-gold

[prisma oak]

could someone help me w resets i feel like im getting all 4 tires on the ball but im not getting a reset

[stiff scroll]

Any tips on reaching the ball for a flip reset at the peak of its trajectory? I can only reach the reset after it's already falling and I can't do anything with it

[steady elm]

Me

[elfin current]

Alr

[tough lintel]

boost towards the ball

so you get a firm hit against it

[stiff scroll]

I find that if I just boost to the ball, I can't set up the reset properly, like ever

[tough lintel]

then you might need to practice the boost amount and the control of actually hitting the ball

[tough lintel]

you don't actually need to get all 4 wheels on the ball you just need the center of car to make contact with it preferably firm but it can be soft contact

so practice getting the center of your car about under the ball

[ionic jewel]

anyone can help me with air roll in air for keyboard and mouse

[karmic yoke]

I recently have turned normal chat on but quick chat can always stay on team only.

[prisma oak]

how do i practice that

[tough lintel]

for me personally i just found a training pack that roles the ball up the wall for me then practice get a good touch off the wall and flying towards the ball, you should practice going slow and going fast, flying entirely upside down the whole time and only going upside right before you get the flip reset

[prisma oak]

ty

[novel marsh]

does anyone have problems with rocket league freezing and then your ping goes red when you come back or is that just me?

[tawny lynx]

Me too

I have packet loss and a bunch of other things in my screen

And my car keeps moving by itself

[golden ivy]

prob just bad internet

[elfin current]

Can anyone help me out? I am silver 3-gold

[umbral bluff]

Does ping make much of a difference in this game

[lost verge]

I did and it seemed to be an issue with my ps5 controller or wire and unplugging and replugging would make it stop for a minute or two I think getting a new wire will help but it could also be an issue with the controller

[wind mural]

anyone have tips for lowsilver 21

2

[fathom sleet]

You just gotta play the game

[wind mural]

ok

[vocal socket]

LF someone to help me rank up ima plat with the mechs of a champ 2-3 i need tips to help me rank up

[analog surge]

im like getting gradually worse at the game

[elfin current]

How?

[vocal socket]

anyone?

[analog surge]

bruh idk

[prime swift]

is it bad to had air roll right on L1 and power slidde on L1 and boost R1 and Genral airoll L2

ive been playiing for awhile and im peaking at c3 rn with these bbiinds

should i coppy a pro

controls or use mine

[pale path]

what mechs do you have

[magic thorn]

what u need help with

[analog surge]

i have jump, boost, double jump, swerve past the ball, and flippin off my hood mechs locked

[woven gyro]

Im hardstuck c1 any tips?

[wind mural]

anyone have any tips for how to get out of silver with too many people smurfing me

[tawny lynx]

Learn power shots and defence

[wind mural]

ive done all of that and more anything else

learning ariels and pinching with ariels. effective but risky

[vocal socket]

a lot

i just stuck at ground game

[tawny lynx]

Do you know Wall play??

[wind mural]

wall paly?

play

[tawny lynx]

Yea

[wind mural]

idk what is it

[tawny lynx]

When the ball goes up the wall

You have to have enough control to push the ball away from the wall

Maybe change it’s direction

And also make it bounce on the floor

[wind mural]

i see. like intercepting the opponent dribbling the ball on the wall. like swatting it off the wall?

[vocal socket]

can i get a choach rq?

[wind mural]

ohhhh i see. wall play opens a lot of stuff, like pinching it off the ground and maybe ariels

[magic thorn]

what u need help with?

im gc 2 maybe i can help

[wind mural]

seeb i got a question. should i be learning ariels and pinches in low silver

just wondering if i should continue

[analog surge]

i think silver is mainly pwoer shots and positioning

[wind mural]

where for the positioning

[magic thorn]

you should just spend more time in freeplay and hit the ball around

[analog surge]

just rotating properly

[magic thorn]

get consistent

[wind mural]

ok. i think i have that down. its just i need my team to rotate with me

[vocal socket]

can u vc?

[magic thorn]

and squishy also has a series on youtube where he explains what to do in low ranks and that kinda stuff

[wind mural]

with shot placeent and power shots

[analog surge]

im watching squishy rn lol

[wind mural]

ok ty. ill look it up

[magic thorn]

yeah

[magic thorn]

W😭

[analog surge]

my goal this season is to reach diamond 😮

[magic thorn]

mine is gc3

[analog surge]

i believe in u

[magic thorn]

i got 1650 mmr last season in 2s so it might be possible

[analog surge]

dam

idk what i got i dont use that bokkesmod or whatever its called

[magic thorn]

u should install it

[analog surge]

does it work with the epic games version of RL?>

[magic thorn]

Yep it does

[analog surge]

hmm

[magic thorn]

worth it

its free as well

[ionic monolith]

Does anyone know how to do jakze resets?

[glossy depot]

how do i join someone's group thats lfg, do i just message them

[true plover]

yea lol

tell them you wanna play and ask for their epic

[nocturne breach]

you will get it, good luck

[magic thorn]

hopefully, thanks

[cold stump]

mine is plat💀 😭

[desert yew]

How do I get good at the game again when I haven’t played for 3 weeks

[meager yew]

play 1's to get the gamesense and get used to your car before playing playing

[desert yew]

Ok but I don’t wanna lose d3 in ones

It always takes me a month to get back there

[meager yew]

truueee i always play like 10 mins of cas

[vestal moat]

if i can't do a rings map while holding both air roll and boost the whole time should i keep going at it? any tips? i can do it while feathering boost pretty decently but i feel like i'm missing something still

[dusky fiber]

wdym? whats the issue? that u cant pres the buttons at the same time?

[vestal moat]

no i just have less control with full boost, and there are definitely certain positions/directions i can't control yet

which is why feathering helps me with it

but i'm not sure whether just practicing more is gonna help me figure these parts out if you get what i mean

[fair isle]

do u do speed rings

[latent jetty]

Chat I’m zen on an alt

[wintry mica]

what youre missing is practice

when you get better with it speed comes automatically.

[vestal moat]

cool thanks

[vestal moat]

i usually do neon rings or speed rings 3

neon rings is fine until the end of level 20 where after going down through straight part and then the direction reverses the camera screws me over

[ocean ingot]

anyone needs help im gc1 c3 i can try to help

[jaunty charm]

Anyone any tips to reach gc?

[ocean ingot]

what rank ru rn

[dusky fiber]

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

[jaunty charm]

Im stuck at c3 for 3 months

[jaunty charm]

Okay thanks

[zinc jacinth]

can someone over c3 wtach my game and give me some feedback

[cyan sage]

any tips for bronze controller player 😔

[lost verge]

People tend to have very mid control in the rank it's mostly just about reading people touches and covering options and making the touches that give you the most options at the end of the day you only need to hit the ball around someone to score especially in 1s

[fathom gate]

Can someone on pc champ and above review my replays i need help!!! I was d2 now im plat 3

[odd oasis]

Any tips for ranking out of diamond or am I cooked? 💀🙏

[wanton citrus]

Alot of ur tm8s will tend to going for the ball alot in most cases so try and play more patiently and rotate.

[wanton citrus]

Just play honestly.

[shy path]

Good morning

[amber mirage]

ur being serious?

[austere prism]

some tips for 1v1 to get out of diamond?

[odd oasis]

😔

[nimble bough]

@cyan sage so my pc has been having this wierd issue where im stuck in champ1-2 cause im trash, any suggestions?

[zenith delta]

Diamond can be hard to get out of if you’re doing it wrong

[steady elm]

Any tips for silver 3

[pseudo stratus]

i need help getting out of c1 lol

[bronze parcel]

hit the ball in the net

[cosmic gull]

Yo guys im just coming back to the game a bit and im looking for an EU coach : D

[sleek epoch]

contact @1failx1 probably the best coach i have ever hired

his discord tag is just 1failx1

[cosmic gull]

I dont really plan on paying sorry, im looking more for someone who is better than me and can play with me and give tips

Not like full on serious coaching

[wicked steppe]

Why does plat games feel like diamond lobby's now

[cyan sage]

the full stop isn’t making you anymore mysterious mate 😭

[lost verge]

Why do they need to be eu also what rank are you or were you when you stopped

[signal silo]

on god tho, everytime im doing comp, bro starts pullin out flip resets and ceiling shots out of nowhere

[zenith delta]

Yo guys are not the same player

[cosmic gull]

Rn im unranked, a year ago i was low champ

[cosmic gull]

EU because im eu

I have thick schedules and its hard to find a time to play with people from na or asia

[coral obsidian]

i need some mechanical help, im learning mechs to be a freestyler and i think my binds will kinda hold me down, i've learned all the basics up to the point where i can chain infintie rapids/musties/stalls etc but now that i try to learn maktufs/jakzes/360 varaint of those etc im getting worried.
i have my air roll left on my left trigger because i got used to it from the time i was on nintendo switch, i have my air roll right which i use for stalls/getting flat 360 maktufs to my bumper on the same side as my roll left, if u understood until here, is there any problem with my binds ? i dont feel like changing them after 1k hours being used on them alone

[cosmic gull]

I think that training could helè

[lost verge]

ngl I think you should focus on your car and ball control before looking for a coach to stick with you while you rank up, a replay review every now and then might be beneficial but it's hard to coach someone if they can't even make the touches they want

[cosmic gull]

;-; im not that bad

[coral obsidian]

i forgot to add from my tries and fails i've noticed that when i do one with air roll left i can chain one with air roll right easier, basically going left to right but im still worried if my binds wil lhold me down

[cosmic gull]

With training i mean like training maps that have setups, its easier to learn things when they are already set up

[zenith delta]

Clearly not cuz a lot of people want to get to champ and higher

[lost verge]

If you were good enough to do what you wanted with the ball you'd for sure be at least gc1

[dim rose]

Can anyone coach me to airdribble?

Message me if you can.

[coral obsidian]

jump with boll from wall, boost into ball

[cosmic gull]

;-; i just want some help that is overkill

[dim rose]

i just need help with air rolling on pc

[zenith delta]

Bro didn’t ask if diamond was easy for you

[cosmic gull]

Instructions unclear, the ball phased onto the backboard and went out the map

[dim rose]

can anyone help me with air rolling on pc

[coral obsidian]

use air roll more than usual

no human being could teach u to do the micro adjusments lol

not even ai, all they say is spam drills 😭

[dim rose]

what air roll do i use tho

[coral obsidian]

which one u want

i personally got to the point where i can use both, i started with left and now mastering right too

[dim rose]

its just very hard to air dribble for me

[coral obsidian]

train more

[timid palm]

im on pc but use a controller, i use reg air roll and air roll left myself. its all preference really

[dim rose]

i do

should i switch to controller

[timid palm]

go watch evamples videos if your on mouse and keyboard. hes a god on that.

[dim rose]

alright

thanks

[delicate urchin]

[dim rose]

what video though?

[coral obsidian]

on what u need help with

[dim rose]

air dribbling

i dont see any videos

[tawny lynx]

First master airoll to the left

and keep ur air roll button as left shift

and ur airoll left botton as "a"

That way u can airoll easliy

[cursive depot]

Does anyone have any tips on how to get the ball into the goal when the opponent is directly in front of the goal?

Can you explain what that means?

I see. What if the ball is on the left wall close to the goal, and they are too?

im c3 and need help to improve my game asap

[tropic scarab]

What are you struggling with mate?

[boreal dragon]

alot of things man

can't win my games yk

[tropic scarab]

I can look at some of ur gameplay sometime, but typically you need to work on clean fast aerials, general control when it comes to dribbles and flicks and most importantly being able to take possession instead of always banging the ball away, controlling tempo of games

[boreal dragon]

check dms

[silver basin]

hey guys! new to the game and need someone to help me with aerials.

[analog surge]

you and me both

[tacit crescent]

Who’s interested in being my duo ima. Small esports league (unofficial my rank around low to mid champ)

Text me for more details

[silver basin]

im not TOO bad at aerials. i just need help with air dribbles ive practiced every day for two months and can't do it

[analog surge]

wait they make videos on that

[silver basin]

already watched like 3 but ill keep practicing

wait sorry for the dumb question but i don't even know what you do in dropshot

[analog surge]

dropshot is pretty fun

[silver basin]

but idk how to play it 😭

and if the ball goes in the broken tiles you get points?

[analog surge]

the ball gets charged up with each hit, you dont want it to land on your side unless the ball is your teams color, and then as the tiles break it creates a goal

[silver basin]

ohhh ty

my fav mode is heatseeker lol

[analog surge]

HEATSEEKER IS GOATED

[nocturne breach]

i loved it, till i was 1 game away from gc and got clapped all the way back to c1 in s11

[silver basin]

I never play ranked 😭

[amber violet]

I cant type the command in looking for group does anybody know why it just times me out

[nocturne breach]

and then it became my nightmare

[silver basin]

nah bro 😭

[nocturne breach]

ikr

[silver basin]

also how long have you guys been playing rl?

[analog surge]

i just now started playing like seriously, but off and on since like 2018

[silver basin]

i started in late 2023 😭

yea

[analog surge]

i cant find a dropshot match rn its loading and loading

says 10 minutes lol

[cyan sage]

can someone really mechanical hop ina call and show me what im doing wrong on my flip resets

[silver basin]

i need help with smth again 🤑

im a f2p player and have 0 credits and im pretty sure you don't get credits from the free rocket pass so how else can I get credits

[cyan sage]

can someone really mechanical hop ina call and show me what im doing wrong on my flip resets

[dusky fiber]

there will be events at some point where u can get few credits. But easiest way is getting the pass 1 time. If u play enough u get all credits back

[silver basin]

well I play on a playstation so..

[silver basin]

alright thanks

[sleek pumice]

any tips how to get out of d2

[dusky fiber]

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

[sleek pumice]

ok

what rank are you guys

[analog surge]

plat 2

[sleek pumice]

how many hours

[analog surge]

i got plat 2 without learning like any mechanics and slow aerials

it sucks

[dusky fiber]

its enough there

[silver basin]

I got 70 hours only

new to the game so idk

[dusky fiber]

i got like 5k + prob

[analog surge]

so now im like trying to learn all this shiii

[sleek pumice]

geez

[dusky fiber]

yh takes some time u got this mate

[sleek pumice]

im 100 hours d2

[zenith delta]

For 2 months what rank r u?

[analog surge]

i would def play ranked

[dusky fiber]

yh just playing in general and getting a feeling for the game, once u get like gold-plat u can start focusing on basic things

[silver basin]

im unranked. before you all start laughing I'm tryna get decent at the game then play ranked

[warm talon]

Whats ur best goal u ever scored in ur opinion

[zenith delta]

Understandable but game sense is a major factor in ranked

[silver basin]

so than should i play ranked?

[zenith delta]

Nah don’t rush you can learn from casual too

[silver basin]

okay ty

[zenith delta]

What rank are u

[dusky fiber]

dont rlly have a "best goal" kinda depends what u focus on i guess, freestyler will be much more capeable of some mechs but i would be higher rankwise u know what i mean

[dusky fiber]

rn i just play with real life mates, when i played alone around gc3 in 2s and 3s

[silver basin]

ive always wondered what's the point of air roll?? what does it help you with?

[dim rose]

Bro can you guys just stop talking every second im trying to play a game and i hear the discord message sound pop up every milesecond

[silver basin]

does it help you shoot better?

[dusky fiber]

many things, small adjustments to boom faster, landing better, getting angles right, etc.

[dusky fiber]

yh

[rare kayak]

looking for coach in 3s

[zenith delta]

There normal air roll and directional air roll normal is good for shots and recoveries and directional is good for anything in the air

[dusky fiber]

u can just mute the server

[zenith delta]

You are not the general of the server bud 💀

[silver basin]

frrr

[dim rose]

i do not care.

[silver basin]

12 yr old with a ronaldo pfp? i see

[zenith delta]

🤖

[analog surge]

lolllll

[analog surge]

can u guys stop talking because i dont understand how discord works

[rare kayak]

🤓 you forgot the nerd emoji mann

[analog surge]

😂

[cyan talon]

🤓 🤓

[nocturne breach]

you stole the words i was about to drop

glad i checked before writing it lmao

[silver basin]

🗣🗣🔥🔥

doing your mom

[cyan sage]

Who here is high rank @silver basin

[zenith delta]

What do you consider a high rank

[dry marsh]

i dont know if theres any ssls here rn

[zenith delta]

That would be the highest rank

[cyan sage]

Champ and above but I will take a diamond

[dry marsh]

those are everywhere

[zenith delta]

Yea bro I’m high then

[nocturne breach]

champ isnt high

[cyan sage]

I just want to show you my clips

[dry marsh]

technically it's top 20% or smth

[nocturne breach]

champ is average rank in rl

[dry marsh]

it's still plat 3

[cyan sage]

I’m plat😭

[zenith delta]

No it’s diamond

[zenith delta]

I’ll look at them

[nocturne breach]

well, from bottom 80%, how many do even play the game anymore

[cyan sage]

Can’t send videos here

[zenith delta]

Like diamond 1 or 2

[dry marsh]

what?

[cyan sage]

Dms

Nah it’s ok

[dry marsh]

but it isnt

[zenith delta]

So what is it then

[nocturne breach]

champ is 20%, but bottom 80% also has players that dont even play rl anymore

if you don't count those, champ becomes average

[dry marsh]

thats not how ranks work

[mortal quail]

what, majority of the playerbase is on console

[rare kayak]

lf gc 3s coach. currently c1 d4 (gc in 2s)

[dry marsh]

bottom 80% of players have all played 10 matches at the very least to get ranked??

[dry marsh]

try dming @cyan sage, he's gc and he coaches for free

[dusky fiber]

u have questions or what exactly do u need?

[rare kayak]

Well I swapped from 2s to 3s since this season. So just want someone to coach me trough basics that I am missing trough watching my gameplay

[zenith delta]

Is this true?

[dry marsh]

lets see

ps4, xbox, switch, 3 consoles

pc, one, 3>1

ps4 xbox switch, 500USD or less, pc, 1000USD + to even make it worth buying

[small valley]

what rank are u?

[dry marsh]

poor people are more common, so yes, most players are on console

[zenith delta]

I’m gc bro you know this already

[dry marsh]

gc1?

[small valley]

i forgot to add now but

[dry marsh]

1436?

[zenith delta]

How does this prove most players are console we just need to see the numbers

[zenith delta]

No I’m not 1436

[dry marsh]

just use your brain dude

[dry marsh]

1437

[zenith delta]

Stop tryna guess 🤦🏽‍♂️

[dry marsh]

ok

what rank are you

[cyan sage]

1431

[dry marsh]

ps4 players are the most deranged

[zenith delta]

How

[dry marsh]

cause most rl players are ps4

[cyan sage]

steamlife.

[nocturne breach]

but most of those console players are in very low ranks

most of top players are pc players

[cyan sage]

I had one a long time ago when the game came out, so I'm a touch crazy imo

[dry marsh]

real, i discriminate against low ranks too

[dry marsh]

k

[cyan sage]

this is because of imput delay and frame rate advantages etc

typically

[dry marsh]

im asian, im aware

[small valley]

he made all those features

[dry marsh]

can confirm

I nerfed the console players

[cyan sage]

they didn't need any assistance I promise/.

[zenith delta]

Psn players are just better

[dry marsh]

debatable

[cyan sage]

he said ps4 because stores still don't stock ps5s

[dry marsh]

its bc im not making them

[wispy pasture]

switch >>>>>

[zenith delta]

Nope

[sick oyster]

Yo how do i use the looking for players channel. To join someone

[rare kayak]

lf gc 3s coach. currently c1 d4 (gc in 2s)

[dry marsh]

try asking @mortal quail

[wispy pasture]

/looking-for-group

[wind mural]

what training pack do yall reccomend for low sliver

[hearty path]

1v1 and 2v2

[sick oyster]

How do you train preflip catch off wall

[cyan sage]

can someone really mechanical hop ina call and show me what im doing wrong on my flip resets

[sleek pumice]

does anyone know a way to get good quality clips or like a clipping softwhere

[spiral zenith]

Im just coming back from a massive break. Anyone able to vc and watch me play a game or 2 then give me some tips?

[cyan sage]

what rank are u

[spiral zenith]

As of now diamond

like d1

[dry marsh]

derust first, no point in giving tips if you know what you're doing wrong

[spiral zenith]

I dont really

[dry marsh]

dont miss the ball

[spiral zenith]

I have no mechanics

I just hit ball and hit goal

[dry marsh]

thats all you need

[spiral zenith]

💀

[dry marsh]

personally i just ballchase out of c1

[small valley]

TLDR PLZ

[dry marsh]

In a rank like c1, you can just take the ball and 1v3

[zenith delta]

No average champ is doing that

[wintry mica]

show in #gameplay-highlights

show us so we can see what u doing wrong

??

[dreamy sparrow]

How do I save my boost I always feel like I’m just going back for boost the whole game

[magic turtle]

What is one way to get better at ball control

[serene cypress]

Anyone know good ways to practice offline? My internet is down currently and want to get better while I’m waiting. I’m a silver 2 on ps4.

[modest grove]

Freeplay.

Training packs.

Matches against bots.

Simple.

[jovial sonnet]

Hey guys is there anyone hella mechanical that could maybe try a theorized mechanic I just thought of

[lone wren]

[craggy hatch]

Can anyone coach me im bad af and unranked

[faint ember]

Any Xbox Players who are freestylers or good at the game, I'm Plat 2 and I needed help with camera settings and controls for my Xbox Series S.
My camera settings right now are those of Dark's, but I find it hard to aerial consistently with those, and my recoveries are affected too.
Currently, my LB has Powerslide and Air Roll Left assigned, and RB has Boost. Normal Air Roll is on LT. Everything else is the same.
If you guys could DM me the settings and controls I could use, I would appreciate it.
Thanks. <3

[severe mortar]

[teal helm]

Rank?

[jaunty dome]

p2

i wanna get d1 this season

in 1s

[versed dust]

should i use both air rolls as a d3?

[jaunty dome]

i do as a plat

guy told me the earlier you learn the better

[versed dust]

do you find using both useful? i’m only using one because my friend told me when i first started

[jaunty dome]

i can go on both walls

like when you jump to wall to wavedash

[lost verge]

one directional plus standard air roll is the easiest to master

[jaunty dome]

or off of wall

[brazen idol]

GROG HAS ITS OWN BOOST

[jaunty dome]

wanna help me?

[teal helm]

its 5am here but i can laterp

[jaunty dome]

lol timezones are crazy ahah

[versed dust]

So what do i do?

use one or both?

thanks

[umbral crag]

some pros don't even have either dar bound

[umbral crag]

alpha54 just won 3 regionals, a major, and worlds without any directional air roll bound. exotikk and mist were both in finals of winter major and both also don't have either dar bound. it isn't necessary fr
copy paste >>

[fair stag]

Don’t even bother playing with afk losers in ur team cuz u will lose and get banned cuz u can’t leave the unfair match 💀

[zenith delta]

If you’re a normal player just learn how to use it

[fair stag]

And it says “it’s unfair for ur teammate” hah give me a break fker

[fair stag]

Still need camera settings?

[teal helm]

scrub killa unbound it

after another mental breakdown probably
