[minor remnant]

what you guys think is the most slept on ''mehanic'' in the game? mine id say is good 50s

[pure plume]

reverse jakzies

[cyan sage]

Recoveries

[minor remnant]

now new players just look what people are saying here and learn them 😄

[pure plume]

if a new player even accidentally does a reverse jakzie I'm gonna eat my own toes

on camera

[short pebble]

i htink mine was like 4k 💀

then it got hacked lol

[hot vine]

400

[short pebble]

if anybody needs tips feel free to dm me :) i was ssl last season

[pseudo cape]

no need for tips need for a mate

[minor remnant]

ngl no clue why people are trying to get to champ but it is funny af here 😄

[dire moat]

I am now

And yeah, they're correct @odd torrent @vital dome

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv-OOn7iYio

[cyan sage]

! preesh

[dire moat]

This is an older video and so doesn't have the latest generation controllers included, but I believe that the DS4 bluetooth still has the best mean input lag

[cyan sage]

didnt have the stuff myself

[minor remnant]

i guess im wrong but i think it was also a connection limitation but who knows

[vital dome]

fair enough

[delicate zenith]

DUDE WHAT ABT THE SWITCH PRO CONTROLLER. THAT'S THE BEST ONE

[dire moat]

Actually found a more updated list that includes the Switch Pro

In short, I feel bad for Switch users

[mortal quail]

Switch is really bad

[delicate zenith]

Nah it's great

I'm d3 on switch with that controller

Peaked c1

[azure jacinth]

mechanic? like a single mechanic?

i've made a video before on my top 5 overrated and top 5 underrated mechanics, but picking one is hard, mind if i share my top 5s?

[mortal quail]

You can share it in #content-promotion

[azure jacinth]

i'll just share the text here, i dont care about views haha. Just made the video to document my thoughts and i share it with people who receive my coaching and stuff.

top 5 overrated skills
-double/multiple flip reset(s)
-holding air roll throughout the aerial
-grabbing big boost pads
-back post rotation
-flipping to get around the pitch

honorable mentions:
chain wall dashing

top 5 underrated skills
-wave dashes
-2 or 3 great kickoffs in your arsenal
-50 50s
-hitting the ball with a lot of power
-aligning your take offs on the ground before jumping

honorable mentions:
demos/bumping

this is just my opinion through my 6000 hours of playing and teaching myself the game. This isn't meant to be mean towards other people's opinions.

i suppose some of these you would label more tactics than mechanics, but their just too important not to list

[void heath]

How many total cars are in rocket league including every colored version

[chilly hatch]

can I get some coaching please I'm sick of brain dead t8s the don't know how to play the game properly

[void heath]

What rank r u@chilly hatch

[chilly hatch]

plat 3 😭

[azure jacinth]

sounds like you're part of the problem, don't blame it on tm8s. Assess what you could do to play around your tm8s or what gameplay is going to compliment your tm8s actions.

you should start by being your own coach. List problems you encounter and brainstorm solutions

and your problems will be apparent if you review your gameplay

i promise your list wont just be filled with:
BAD TEAMMATES

you are among the thousands of players who beg for a coach but haven't shown coaches that you've put in any effort to try and fix these issues you're having to begin with. This isn't me being rude either, because I honestly don't mind coaching/helping anyone, but you got to give me more effort than just begging and blaming teammates. It's such a bad mentality and clearly shows why you can't rank up. Take this advice I'm giving you and turn your ranked journey around by being a more diligent learner and take each game and mistake as a lesson rather than getting upset.

[chilly hatch]

I'm pretty sure I'm Plat 2 in one's and ik it's not always my teammates but sometimes I really question them they will be good but bad and I'm good but bad but I stick to the things I know what to do and when I know I can do something helpful I will but sometimes my teammates will just smack the ball into the enemy's corners and to them

[azure jacinth]

why question them tho? Can you control your teammates actions? It's a rhetorical question. The answer is no. You can only prepare to play around common issues or common situations that teammates might put you in.

I'm really hoping you grow as a person or at least an RL player by just taking my advice, you're making such a big deal over something that isn't really an issue. You're just substituting it in for what the real issues are. Which is your positioning, movement, and fundamentals

If i need to prove my points further to you, then I will. Just give me a quick dm if you ever need help on something specific.

[finite halo]

2s, yeah

[umbral crag]

are they? there are a lot of less commonly used resets like backside resets (backflip cancel + tornado spin), reverse rapids, side flip resets, etc (some arguable are easier than reverse jakze because cancel doesn't need to be as accurate but still not as common idt)

[errant barn]

how would you improve positioning would that be looking at replays

[empty tangle]

Some times

It kinda depends on the player

[umbral crag]

that + going into games and limit testing to find that fine line between overcommiting and being really close/covering the most options

[azure jacinth]

100%. Take note of how pros rotate and position themselves. Take note of what you are doing and ask yourself why didn't it work out. What more could you have done.

[errant barn]

Thanks and means alot also you said you made a video going over why the 5 mechanics are overrated and underrated can I have a link to the video by any chance

[azure jacinth]

it's not posted anywhere, im sorry. If you'd like to have a deeper discussion I'd be happy to explain my thoughts 🙂

[errant barn]

yeah is backpost rotation not always good because you’d end up giving away too much space or is there another reason for it

I mean not always good is probably the wrong wording I meant is it the reason why it’s overrated

[warped quiver]

i started yesterday so does anyone have begginer tips

[errant barn]

Thanks also red do you have any tips on controlled musties I tend to keep hitting it either up and forwards a bit too far or I’d get no power on the attempt

[quaint birch]

Can someone help me get too a higher rank?

[umbral crag]

dm clip of failed attempts. usually its because you aren't far enough under the ball though

[silver surge]

nah i want to lowkey run cas with someone mechy and chill but anything is fine as long as i am coaching or getting coached 🙂

plat 3

too real.

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.
Or if anyone else has some wild mechanics we can run casual and you can help me freestyle with some tips and recommendations.

[quaint birch]

Can anybody help me get back too c3 I’ve dropped alot and I’m in c1 rn

[languid wedge]

its the rank system begining of the season its normal too drop rank\

[twin pier]

which gamemode should i try to get my rank up? 1s 2s or 3s

[hybrid tusk]

1’s

[high brook]

I did a game in slow motion and now my game feels really fast I think it’s glitched

[twin pier]

just went silver to plat

[hybrid tusk]

You’ll do yourself a favor

Keep it going

[cyan sage]

Can anyone coach me?

[pliant dew]

I'm not dat good otherwise i would've lol

[cyan sage]

I'm like silver 1

[pliant dew]

I'm silver 2

ehhe

[cyan sage]

Dang

[pliant dew]

ikr lmao

[jolly token]

anyone know how to fix bakkesmod? it keeps saying "mod out of date, waiting for update"

i tried to reinstal it and it wont work

[tawny lynx]

I think we have to wait for a update

should be fixed in 2-3 days

[jolly token]

damn alright

[cyan sage]

Can anyone coach me? im gold DM

[finite pivot]

Tips d3 to c1

[azure jacinth]

just gonna have to wait

[fast flint]

its bc there was an update#

[sudden rain]

stop playing on auto pilot and start taking control of the ball

[ebon nebula]

Hello, i'm trying to improve at 1's, i'm currently plat 1 div 1 and i don't really know how to attack. I'm always left with dead balls and just boost straight into the opponent. I have no mechanical prowess at all. if any of y'all can give some tips or something to try improve i'd appreciate it, Thanks.

[proper shadow]

sup

how are guys

[tawny lynx]

Mine

[proper shadow]

hi

do you hear me

[uneven token]

Does anyone actually play Rl Live?

[robust flax]

What to do with tm8s who play like 3 year olds at a very high rank

gc

thanks

can someone make this guy admin

[wheat palm]

I’m trying to learn the mechanic where you flip into the ball at the start of the air dribble I’m wondering if it’s really necessary to speed flip or if I should just do a diagonal flip cause the speed flip is kinda throwing me off

[tawny lynx]

Can anybody tell me how to get off the wall to the ball

I keep missing it

M Sipver

[wheat palm]

I figure it out

[wheat palm]

Jump then hold directional air roll and your left stick in the opposite direction of your air roll until your car is flat then fly at the ball but at silver you can probably just drive down then hit it

[radiant temple]

can someone teach me some mechanics? im gold 3

[prisma oak]

what mechanics?

[radiant temple]

anything really @prisma oak

[tawny lynx]

I play on PC but I’ll see how that works

[proud widget]

watch better players play and find out what you are not doing correctly,
I would say practice controlling the ball close to you,
dribbling it on an angle with a bounce or just a roll (like flakes),
keep your eyes on the opponent and also the ball (since you are plat 1),
setup your plays in a way that gives you multiple ways to score (fake, 50, bump/demo double jump pop, "quick" powerslide cut, hook shot, power shot) depending on what your opponent is doing

and finally I wanna say
practice a lot in training and cas 1s before you start grinding ranked

[ebon nebula]

thank you, i'll make sure to check out those different things, i wanna try to get plat 2 by the end of my spring break. Today i just got to plat 1 div 3

[radiant temple]

can anyone teach me some new mechs?

[proud widget]

u don't need it,
if you are not confident that you will make it to the net with your air dribbles,
just stay behind the ball high enogh for u to take a 50 or go low and air dribble again (or any other play)

btw why do you wanna learn these?

[bitter wing]

Any tips for c2 just hit it

[proud widget]

gl ❤️

[proud widget]

you can learn wall shots from a yt tutorial or smth
but you don't need that in silver
just watch how flakes handles these situations

[wheat palm]

Just cause they look cool but I think the practical reason is they save boost when going for full field air dribbles

And you get build up speed fast when going off the back wall

[proud widget]

ye
they are definitely cool
but there should be something you need to work on that will benefit your rank the most and it is not dodge control
you can look for kevpert's dodge control tutorial anyways
hf

[short pebble]

dm me if u need tips i was ssl last season :)

[real warren]

Best tip alt F 4 then Delate

[spring obsidian]

😮

[cedar jacinth]

I have been wwhiffing in gold 2 nowadays its being hard

[spring obsidian]

try in freeplay hit the ball as hard as u can then hit it again as quickly as u can over and over, should help u correct those balls u think u had but then whiff

if that is the issue u have

[spring obsidian]

can show a demo clip if u want

[red tinsel]

yo i want to set joystick air roll and power slide to the same button and i want to have them on L1 and directional air roll on square. Now i know that my settings are not optimal, i have directional air roll and powerslide on L1 and i have normal air roll on L2, wich is the reason i want to change them. DOES ANYONE HAVE TIPS TO GET USED TO BINDS FASTER?

[spring obsidian]

i think ur talking abt something similar to what i have, i think its the best bindings to use directional ar but still have access to left or right bind

but to get used to the bindings i mean u just have to play, theres not necessarily rl training to make ur fingers remember what buttons do what

id theres a specific mech ur messing up with ur bindings then u can practice until u imprint thw habit on ur hands

[spring obsidian]

.

also depending on how high up u r in rocket league if ur controller is worn out that may effect u learning the bindings

its not that big a deal tbh but it is noticeable

[proud widget]

swap them,
give it some time,
then give it some more time

[spring obsidian]

i mean if u wont get mad, u can just play comp 1s with ur new bindings, ull definitely learn lol

[proud widget]

or 1v1 a friend
it should be a fun way to learn
no?

[red tinsel]

aight

[red tinsel]

is it worth it to make the change

[sharp tundra]

Any1 got any tips for getting out of c2?

[red tinsel]

ye

i do bby

[nocturne breach]

learn to do something with the ball

after you learn that, you can focus on gaining possession to do those stuffs

because most players in ur rank pass the ball away to their opponents

and use your teammate as a tool

[sharp tundra]

Alri

[sharp tundra]

What would u recommend

[nocturne breach]

flicks

[lusty pivot]

Can somebody please tell me where is my mistake in speed flip? I can't reach the ball quick enough
https://giphy.com/gifs/cGhKPDPPzZlXl96Knn

[scarlet furnace]

could someone help me with ground pinches i cant turn my car 90 degrees and flip i just flip my car upsidown and flip

[stone flax]

how do i humble my friends, they all have horrible ego issues, their mindset is push every ball and go fast as possible

game sense aint all there for them

[scarlet furnace]

add me

[stone flax]

@mortal quail need ur advice

been tryna tell them champs are horrendous and to slow down and expect them to miss but they monkey the ball anyway

[scarlet furnace]

dont play with them then

[stone flax]

well im not gona solo q

[scarlet furnace]

its champ

go to looking for group and fin d some kids

[stone flax]

tried that i rarely find anyone with sense

[scarlet furnace]

well they could say the saame about you

[stone flax]

dont monkey the ball and dont panic on defence champs can hardly hit the ball correctly

[sharp tundra]

I dont panic on defensive but anyways getting better for hitting ball?

[stone flax]

expeect the unexpected (they gona miss)

[sharp tundra]

Alri

[stone flax]

dont flip into every ball either ull just take urself out the play

[sharp tundra]

Alri

[stone flax]

single jump if needed

[cyan sage]

Hey can someone tell me how I can control my car better in the air?

[tender hill]

practice

[mortal quail]

"Slow down" is super vague
What are they doing fast thats bad
Are they not taking time when they can, are they just full rushing challenges and plays, are they taking boost and going full speed causing overcommits. If they are paniking for example, try to have them utilize time and getting a close touch rather than a far one. Champs tend to panik when low on boost, maybe have them pick up pads

[stone flax]

they constantly just push into 1st man without thinking, i have possession let me make my play but they just hit the ball without much purpose and monkey into every 50. They all think they ssls when theyr not, i keep telling them we dont have that level of consistency to be going fast as humanly possible

they wont accept theyr bad either

played with a ex gc2 and bros hardstuck c1-2

they all expect things that wont happen

boost management is a common theme among them all

always i have no boost

they miss the ball way more than they think, as soon as i miss its always omg ur f*cking awful

im tryna unlearn my monkey behaviour and play with some sense

they all do the same thing they complain about, i told them watch back ur replays but they wont even do that

[nocturne breach]

ranked exist for a reason

is champ, not ssl

[mortal quail]

Champs have big egos, you yourself also have this issue. Playing with gamesense is very easy. Teammates tend to not complain when your winning. Unlearning monkey ball doesnt affect you on how your teammate will play

Focus on yourself and youll be fine

[nocturne breach]

you can't blame players for being bad, when the rank itself isn't that great

if you want higher rl standards, put your ego aside, make an effort to climb, and play in your own rank

[stone flax]

my biggest issue is just hitting the ball, im working on it tho

[nocturne breach]

monkey ball is common among all the ranks, even in ssl

except that ssl miss less than a champ does and they are fast

[stone flax]

my ego is no where near as bad as when i first hit c2, i play more to improve than just focusing on my rank

[hybrid pine]

whats the point of always using air roll in air dribbles and stuff and not just at the end when ur for example going for flip resets or angles.. just askin

[nocturne breach]

because they can expect you to get a reset at any possible time

[hybrid pine]

alright ig.. still dont get the point

[nocturne breach]

higher control over the ball + not being predictable

[stone flax]

there is not much point in air rolling thru air dribbles its just to make u look cooler

[nocturne breach]

that's false

[stone flax]

hurts u more than anything i have a huge air rolling problem it messes me up constantly

using it to re adjust calm but not thru the whole thing

just making it harder for urself

[nocturne breach]

using directional air roll for air dribbles will always give you an advantage

[nocturne breach]

if you didn't master it, it doesn't mean that is useless

[hybrid pine]

im using directional and im rlly close to mastering it

[nocturne breach]

congrats

[stone flax]

every aerial i go for im pure air rolling its a horrible habit i just slow myself down for no reason

[nocturne breach]

don't use it for every aerial, just when you are dribbling the ball in the air

[nocturne breach]

and second, you need to improve your control of it if you want to use it in real games

directional air roll is one of the hardest mechanics to master in rl, you have to spend months to get better at it

[flint plaza]

is bakkesmod working fine after the last update?

[hybrid pine]

yeah

for me it is

[stone flax]

directional air roll is probably the thing im most consistent at since i been using it since i was silver 💀 but i over use it

[flint plaza]

alr ty

[severe arch]

opinion declined

[stone flax]

💀

[hot vine]

I need help with 1s!

[severe arch]

if you say something like that you obviously aren’t good at using dar

[severe arch]

ballchase

[flint plaza]

same

[hot vine]

I lose 50s and they score on me its real tough!

[severe arch]

it’s ok! just win the 50s!

[stone flax]

dont flip into 50s

[hot vine]

but when I defend I just have no boost and they pile on pressure

[hot vine]

but then it goes right over me!

[flint plaza]

u can practice 50s in priv matches

[hot vine]

how do i do that

[severe arch]

then jump!

[stone flax]

single jump

[hot vine]

gotcha

[flint plaza]

or maybe not understanding how it works (just relying on muscle memory)

[hot vine]

whats dar

[severe arch]

directional air roll

[severe arch]

means you aren’t good at it

[hot vine]

how do i do kickoff?

[severe arch]

sure you can hold it down and fly around but do you know when to use it

[hot vine]

do i single jump into the ball for that aswell

[severe arch]

no

[hot vine]

but i keep losing the 50

when i flip they always closer to the ball and get the boost as well

[severe arch]

you’re talking to someone who has never played 1s

[hot vine]

or it just bounces into my net right away

ill wait for someone who knows the game to respond then

[stone flax]

u gota know how 50s work to be good at them

[severe arch]

the mode sucks

[stone flax]

word

[hot vine]

how do they work

[stone flax]

think of urself as a wall

[severe arch]

just speed flip for kickoffs then side flip into the ball

[hot vine]

i mess up the speed flip and then front flip and they win

love when theyre champ 2 in 1s and peak gc3 in 2s

[severe arch]

then don’t mess it up?

practice until you can do them consistently

[hot vine]

i keep trying to do it right

[severe arch]

you aren’t trying hard enough it seems

[hot vine]

i do it consistently in freeplay and then in match i mess it up every time :(

[stone flax]

i seen a gc2 in d2 💀 all bro knew was air dribbles

[severe arch]

what am i supposed to say

you’re the one complaining in discord to a bunch of randoms

[stone flax]

starr tell red to stop airing me im a different man now

hitting the ball

with purpose

[severe arch]

Gold: Get down the basics of the game such as rotations, positioning, power clears, decent saving, shooting, (not passing), reads, and keeping control of the ball. Once you have a good grasp on all of these its a matter of time before you get to plat.

[stone flax]

in short term ball placement

telling a gold to rotate is wild

[severe arch]

say the ball bounces off the wall, you have to read where it’s gonna go

get used to the physics of the game down there in gold

[flint plaza]

don't rush any part of the speedflip "but the flip cancel"
I think that should help

[severe arch]

good luck

[flint plaza]

I also recommend perfecting the diagonal flip kickoff

[hot vine]

so i shouldnt flip immediately after jumping ?

[flint plaza]

yep

[mortal quail]

And what are you doing to improve in your games

[stone flax]

not giving away possession and flying at balls ik im not gona hit

[mortal quail]

Im hoping your getting better at 1s or 3s

[mortal quail]

Giving away possession is super vague
Imo if you wanna improve, you should monkey to improve individual mechanics.

[flint plaza]

shadow defense

[stone flax]

so ball chase 🗿

i used to throw away the ball so much and wondered why im always giving up goals

trying my hardest to just stick with the ball

[hot vine]

what rank are you people anyways

[flint plaza]

it depends,
u don't have to if you are good at it
and you definitely should not do it if you are still learning

but in general make sure you are not flipping too early that your car hits the ground

[mortal quail]

You said your issue is missing the ball right
This is either due to poor positioning or being out speed by opps causing you to want to go faster than you can

You can chase and keep possession btw

But i recommend doing that in 1s

2s is very poor for improvement if you main the mode

[stone flax]

i think i spend to much time tryna re adjust with the ball than just going with it

[mortal quail]

Also don't confuse keeping possession with dribbling and close touches, you can boom the ball while keeping possession if you can follow it

[stone flax]

thats a issue i had i never followed up i just hit and left

ima play some 1s now

[mortal quail]

3s is honestly really good for improvement
It helps with a lot of things that the other two modes lack

[hot vine]

when dribbling do you look at the car or the ball

[pure plume]

I look at the ball and also upfield

since you have to react to what the opponent is doing

[hot vine]

if its an individual issue with mechanics then look at a video and comapre what theyre doing to what youre doing. if its an interaction in the match look at what youre opponent did to beat you

do what they did instead of what you did

[pure plume]

think about what you could've done differently to prevent it

identify what your opponent did to beat you and identify your own mistake

come back to it later then sounds like you're mindblocked on it

[stone flax]

what from someone else perspective

[mortal quail]

You can always ask what to do better in a given spot

Or if you find yourself doing the same thing, ask what is wrong with it

[hot vine]

when i watch my replays i see a whole lot of stuff i do terrible, even knowing what the best move is in hindsight i never make it in the match - its a bad habit!

even if i do think of a smart play i cannot execute it

[lavish kite]

can someone teach me to double musty

not a ceiling musty double tap i already know that

like a double musty

ye

o

i have a clue on how to do it

but i can never get under the ball

through his yt?

k

this chat is kinda dead and there is 50k+ members

thats weird

does he go live on yt or twitch?

alr

[mortal quail]

You play 1s to improve, not for the rank
If you wanna do 1s for rank, you have to change and adapt your playstyle

[lavish kite]

i havent used twitch in a while

whats his twitch

[mortal quail]

If you are actually improving your rank will follow. So if your stuck for 2 years, you aren't improving

[lavish kite]

found it

what rank are u

[lavish kite]

im not improving either i guess

dang

[stone flax]

what mmr is the avg high champ low gc in cas?

im at 1500 ish and everyones awful

find the odd freestyler but other than that its free

[lavish kite]

i can coach u

[mortal quail]

Ignore beating individual players, focus purely on yourself and improving

[mortal quail]

Probably 1700, but im like 1900-2000 if i play enough

[stone flax]

oh got fair bit to go then

just spamming pub 1s

[mortal quail]

Thats crazy 💀

Just do 2s

[stone flax]

nah bruh evryone like d2 level

its horrid

[mortal quail]

Your like d3 level so

Same thing

[stone flax]

wym d3 💀

[mortal quail]

Diamond 3

[stone flax]

nearly at c2 again

[mortal quail]

Your c1 div 2

What you talking about

[stone flax]

acually nvm i went on a loss streak yesterdfay

[mortal quail]

Youve been nearly c2 for a year

106 games 💀

Bro

[stone flax]

my guys dont play serious its a struggle out here

[mortal quail]

What solo queue?

[stone flax]

i could solo q but im not tryna go thru that

[mortal quail]

Youd be d3 if you solo queued

[stone flax]

not even

[mortal quail]

Mb, d2

[stone flax]

all my alts are c1

[mortal quail]

How are you perma c1

[stone flax]

havnt pushed further than that

[mortal quail]

What is this

Mental diff

[stone flax]

i need play with someone whos consistent

im playting with like 3 diff guys

[mortal quail]

...

Bro cant solo queue so he gets 3 randoms who are probably bad

Then complains

[stone flax]

nah i aint complaining

im working on just improving myself

but at somepoint i need get back up

im getting my rewards this szn idc

[mortal quail]

First advice, stop braindeadly queueing ranked

Amount of games does not equal improvement

[stone flax]

im locked in everytime idk bout my guys tho

[mortal quail]

No you arent

[stone flax]

2 of theem dont even warm up

[mortal quail]

Then stop queueing ranked

As i said

You have 100 games already and 400 last season in 2s

Legit stop braindead queueing

And actually improve in other aspects

[stone flax]

i might have to solo queue icl i been playing too well recently

but if lose 1 game its gg

[timid quail]

bro i just went down like 50 mmr

[mortal quail]

You play well against low c1s, but once you get to high c1
Youll lose more then tilt

[stone flax]

nah low c1 is where i get mad

even high c1

c2 is more whre i feel comfortable

i just dont have the consistency to get c3

idk what im even doing i wana rank up but i do the exact opposite

[mortal quail]

Bro
You arent even a consistent c2

Stop glazing yourself

You peak c2 then thats about it

[stone flax]

when i was c2 i flew past it

[mortal quail]

No you didn't

[stone flax]

i did

[mortal quail]

Im looking directly at your tracker

[stone flax]

was 1 game off c3

[mortal quail]

You immediately drop

That was one time

[stone flax]

this was after red

[mortal quail]

And got carried

[stone flax]

ima just solo queue f it

dont need rely on no one else

[mortal quail]

Play 10 games, ignore everything else

After 10 games, focus on what to improve

You keep brainlessly queueing ranked

Thats not how you improve

[stone flax]

d2 here i come

[torn olive]

No

[cedar jacinth]

hello

diamonds are sweaty fr

Guys, i need help. I reached diamond yesterday in ones. Then i lost it like 4 matches later. Any advice on how to cement myself in diamond using play styles and stuff? No new mechs though

[cedar jacinth]

patience

[cedar jacinth]

also what training pack I should use

[vital dome]

comes down to understanding your opponent also tilting them helps

[cedar jacinth]

which training pack I should use

[granite cape]

Hello guys! Can someone Tell me how can i do very powerful flicks?

[vital dome]

i dont use any but u could practice with rings

[vital dome]

learn 45 degree flicks and front flip flicks

[cedar jacinth]

I'm console

[torn olive]

Like being toxic?

[granite cape]

And btw whats the best flick to learn?

[vital dome]

nah getting in there head with demos being annoying etc

[torn olive]

Ohh

[vital dome]

good demos in 1s = free goals

[granite cape]

Real

[torn olive]

Ok, i will try that

[vital dome]

id say 45 and front flick

[thin verge]

For the keyboard guys, I today read you need to let go of s and press it again (after initially flip cancelling with s) during speedflip, but for me it works with the musty training pack even though I keep s pressed during the whole flip cancel - what do people achieve by letting go of s and pressing it again?

[lost verge]

I don't really have many braincells today to figure out why it would be better for kickoff but with musty flicks for instance if you flip cancel and let go of it the car slows down midflip so by doing that on kickoff it might help with someone who is flipping incorrectly

[lusty pivot]

Can you please tell me where is my mistake in speed flip? I can't reach the ball quick enough
https://giphy.com/gifs/cGhKPDPPzZlXl96Knn

[thin verge]

Ah okay but if the speedflip is done right you don't need to let go of s and can just keep it pressed?

[lost verge]

You shouldn't need to keep it pressed either tbh I'm not kbm but just in general you only need the flip cancel to work and airroll through the rest

[lost verge]

The reason people would double press s is to help with a recovery from a bad flip

[thin verge]

Ah to correct the trajectory?

[lost verge]

Yes and to make sure you land smoothly on all four wheels

[thin verge]

To me it looks like you aren't flip cancelling fast enough, but I'm no pro haha

[lusty pivot]

I have no clue how to improve this, though

[lost verge]

Airroll all the way through so you can land on all four wheels also I think you're driving off to the side at the start when you don't need to

[thin verge]

https://streamable.com/247gyv

Here you can see a successful one

[thin verge]

Immediately after the diag flip you want to flip cancel (press s/backwards or on controller drag stick down I guess?)

[lusty pivot]

really? I always thought it is necessary 😮

[lusty pivot]

I am on KBM 🙂

[lusty pivot]

ooooh, I just have to tilt the car at the vbeginning a bit

[stone flax]

bro the ego down here is crazy hows my teammtes afk in both my games this why i dont solo queue they just give up for no reason

[thin verge]

afaik you do need to countersteer before doing the flip

Yeah and press s immediately

[lusty pivot]

If it is a side kickoff, which way do you tilt? Towards your goal?

[thin verge]

like as soon as you diag flip you want to pretty much already have hit s while having let go of w

[thin verge]

I think you can do both sides, at least I have seen it

[stone flax]

💀

[lusty pivot]

do you use A/D too to correct yourself or is it always only S?

[thin verge]

So I do

1. diag flip with w + air roll right OR left while boosting
2. immediately let go of w only and press s
3. if done right you don't need a/d, but I think I press it anyways out of habit
4. hold Powerslide when "landing" for a short duration, but not long at all

[lusty pivot]

and you boost non stop, right?

[thin verge]

At least until I land/hit SS

[lusty pivot]

damn I try this now with just countersteering a bit

and I am miliseconds too slow

[thin verge]

You'll get there, keep going! Also, if you think you're flip cancelling fast enough just do it faster still

[spring hollow]

can someone coach me, if thats not to much to ask

um plat 2 peaked d1 last season

[cyan tangle]

Im diamond 2, who plays better on C2 lobbies

[eager radish]

Geniune question, ive been playing rl for awhile and never tried directional airoll, but why do i need to? if someone could dm me i will show you two clips of my air dribble and i want u to guess which is directional and which is manual, i just feel so comfortable with manual idk why i need to switch. this is so hard to learn, im also practicing breezis too

[cyan tangle]

isw thats true bro

[wanton torrent]

If I'm c1 in 1s what should my 2s rank be

[cyan tangle]

C3

[wanton torrent]

So c2 1v1 = gc 2s

My peak last season in 2s was c3 div 1 but rn I struggle even at c1, think my game sense is shiet

Yeah it took me 1500 1v1 games to get c1, 1s is hard af

I prob got like 300-400 total 2s games

No all last season and this season combined

[wide sand]

anyone offering free coaching for 1v1? im plat 1 currently

[wanton torrent]

Learn/practice bounce dribbles hookshots, flicks, air dribble bumps, Powershots

[wide sand]

since when are plats suppost to air dribble???

[stone flax]

getting my boy to gc dropshot while im stuck in diamond still F.

[wide sand]

could you atleast help me with some of those

[wanton torrent]

Air dribble bump isn't really a air dribble, just dribble the ball on ur car and double jump and boost infront of it

[wide sand]

add me on rl

[wanton torrent]

I'm at work rn I can when I get off work in like 6 hours

[wide sand]

i sleep in 6h :/

[wanton torrent]

need help on staying in champ i always hit it but never able to stay

[nocturne breach]

[nocturne breach]

plats can penta reset nowadays, i don't see the problem with a basic air dribble ..

[fresh trellis]

that's crazy😭

[nocturne breach]

different gameplays are required for every skill level

[nocturne breach]

real

[cyan sage]

Yo can someone coach me I’m plat 3

[fresh trellis]

ive been in c1 for way to long I've reached c2 a few times but that's it🥲

[nocturne breach]

you need to find what kind of player you are and who you would pair better with if you want long term duo, for example i am highly mechanical and i need a passive teammate that stays close to the play to score when i outplay both opponents and is open net, but i perform insanely bad when i have another teammate that keeps taking the possession

that is if you dont want to adapt to your soloq tm

because when you have to adapt, you have to be good at everything

and you cant highlight your strong points

[cyan tangle]

1 Year gap

and my controller is totally damagged

my main teammate is offline ...

[cyan tangle]

im passive, i play very precisely and dont go for everything

im more of knowledge dude

[proper stratus]

as in you play better individually (or do you both play better and win)

[cyan tangle]

ingame

[cyan tangle]

the game pace is different between ranks

[proper stratus]

yes

[cyan tangle]

and i play better together

[proper stratus]

to the point you win in c2?

as a current c2, d2 is easier for me (sounds obvious) so that's why its a bit strange

but in c2 sounds strange but you can get away with overcommiting so much more

but in d2 there are so many "more" mistakes than in c2 so it kind of compensates

just needs a playstyle adjust

[eager radish]

i need help with breezi flicks

[cyan sage]

any higher ranked mechanical players answer a question about my flip resets

[dusky fiber]

what do u need? u can dm me

[karmic yoke]

Hey, am I allowed to ask if I could play with a higher rank and learn from them? I want to get better and experience higher ranked games since my games are.... interesting to say the least.

[lofty oracle]

What should I do to get to gc if I’m champ 2

[dusky fiber]

whats a higher rank for u?

[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

[fast gate]

Tips for gc1 to get to gc2

Plz don't just say speed and consistency

[dusky fiber]

despite the things u said adapting skills, 1s to improve your individual level, c3 there shoudl be enough if u dont already are c3 there, and in general its a bit difficult i feel like the gap between low gc1 and gc2 is not too easy, will take some time dont loose hope, dont try to mechnical stuff to not leave your mate alone as this will get punished there

[wise idol]

juswt hella over commit, the opponetnts wont think so

[stone flax]

@mortal quail i got my boy to gc in dropshot 😭 im still diamond 2 in it

[wise idol]

trust

[karmic yoke]

Anything above platinum 1 in 2v2.

[fast gate]

C3 in 1s? I'm c3 in 1s but there sweaty af

It's not to fun

[wise idol]

can someone help me get froom gold 2-3 to plat, im hard stuck due to smurfs, (i swear to god they freestyling)

[fast gate]

I gtg soon btw so I might not reply

[dusky fiber]

yeah thats alright, some are like low champ thats why i asked, what do u feel like is the issue u not getting higher?

[dusky fiber]

focus on defense, get better with powershots on goal, should be enough

[wise idol]

ty

[wise idol]

what about in twos, cause thats what i mainly play

[dusky fiber]

thats what i meant for 2s, dont chase behind the ball, the majority does it there so if u dont u will be good

[wise idol]

ok

[karmic yoke]

Is there anybody willing to?

[silver surge]

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.
Or if anyone else has some wild mechanics we can run casual and you can help me freestyle with some tips and recommendations.

[lofty oracle]

Do you recommend finding a teammate or keep on solo q’ing

I’ve done it alone until c2 for 2’s

1’s im diamond

[tranquil sonnet]

never solo q

but you should realize being in a party makes the matchmaking place you against people in a party as well.

Thus higher chance of playing smurfs and playing better people (teamwork)

[karmic yoke]

Nah.

I just play 1v1.

[tranquil sonnet]

So? he's talking about 2s

[lofty oracle]

I solo q jn 2’s

All the time lol and I’ve gotten to c2. And I’m stuck

[karmic yoke]

I solo q all game modes.

[tranquil sonnet]

just find someone in #looking-for-group

[lofty oracle]

I want to get GC this season

[tranquil sonnet]

theres big difference from gc and c2

[karmic yoke]

That is extremely hard. They either bail out on you the second you lose or you can't even find anybody.

[lofty oracle]

Yeah I know

[dusky fiber]

depends what u want to achieve, if u are very close from the rank u want lets say c3 and want gc then def finding a mate, but on the long term perspective its way more effective to solo q, u learn way more there as u always need to change up your playstyle and improve in many field

[lofty oracle]

Only reason I can’t get there is cuz I’m not doing tricks in the air

[tranquil sonnet]

that's not true, i've had lots of success finding the right teammate

[lofty oracle]

My ground play got me c2

[tranquil sonnet]

but most people will leave after two losses

that's my experience

[karmic yoke]

It is true. I am literally speaking from experience. Why do you think I became a 1v1 main at this point?

[lofty oracle]

Ima def look for a teammate

[tranquil sonnet]

Bro I legit reached c3 just from finding right people in #looking-for-group

[lofty oracle]

C1 is boring and easy until I get that weird teammate

Sometimes I’m that weird teammate

[dusky fiber]

always about adapting and how good u are at hat

[karmic yoke]

I am currently platinum 3- diamond 1 in 1v1 and I am in platinum 1 in 2v2. Great times.

[tranquil sonnet]

lol you are just bad at teamwork then

you probably think you're better than your teammates thus you try to play solo

[karmic yoke]

I don't care about teammodes at all.

[torn olive]

He prob is though

Most plat ones are not in d1 for 2s

[tranquil sonnet]

Being good in 1s doesn't make you good in 2s.
Being better individually doesn't make you better than your teammate in 2s

[karmic yoke]

I don't think I am better than my teammates dude. I actually blame myself even for mistakes that are not even mine. I have higher ranked friends that even get annoyed at this. Dude, you're assuming way too much.

[tranquil sonnet]

I am c1 in 1s, I always play against gc1/gc2 ranked in 2s
But that does not mean I am better than them in 2s, they would destroy me in 2s

[tranquil sonnet]

just this is enough to say you don't care about putting effort in teamwork

either way I don't care you do you

[torn olive]

But there gc though

[tranquil sonnet]

So?

[karmic yoke]

Bro just hates everybody, assumes, and is terminally online.

[tranquil sonnet]

I am same as their rank in 1s, doesn't mean I am equally as good as them (in 2s)

[karmic yoke]

See ya everybody. 👋

[tranquil sonnet]

Lmao you were talking about me assuming but you're assuming. What a hypocrite

[torn olive]

What’s your rank in 2s

[tranquil sonnet]

c3

or high c2 depends on day

[torn olive]

Yeah, so clearly the better you are at ones, the better you become at 2s

[tranquil sonnet]

For most people yes

But at lower rank it's different.

Most people just chase, especially at platinum

Heck even at diamond they chase and blame teammates

[karmic yoke]

How am I assuming if I am basing off of what you said. Not only that, how can I assume off of my own experience? That makes no sense. On top of that, I have played with higher ranked players before(I mentioned I have higher ranked friends), they're just offline currently. That is why I am asking here. Man I can't here. See you. 👋

[tranquil sonnet]

They might be decent individually but when they come up against two people that can do normal saves and clears it gets difficult when they chase

[tranquil sonnet]

Ain't reading allat

weren't you heading out bro? go sleep it's your bed time

[karmic yoke]

Nah bro is toxic, no wonder this community is going down.

Okay for real though, I am out. Going to ask my friend if he can play.

[tranquil sonnet]

Sorry if I offended your heart

[torn olive]

How is he being toxic

[tranquil sonnet]

Cya 💕

[torn olive]

Literally did nothing

[tranquil sonnet]

Nws let's not talk about it

[short mural]

anyone got tips of how to improve with non mechanical stuff like gamesence ect, i am currently hardstuck d1 and solo que in 2s yet in d2 in 1s so feel like game sence letting me down

[remote kayak]

As a copper 3 in doubles, quit the game buddy

[fast ibex]

learn to rotate?

[hollow meadow]

is there a gc player that can watch a replay with me an d tell me what im going wrong?

[radiant temple]

is there someone that can teach me mechanics?

[pure plume]

what do you want to learn?

[radiant temple]

anything really im gold 3

[pure plume]

in that case you really should just play the game more

[hollow meadow]

can anyone coach me im c1 in 2s and d1 in 1s and im working on my 1s rank and skill and i feel like i just need some help finding my weaknesses and i want to get way better than i am right now as a player in any game mode

[real hinge]

i got a controller today and just installed the game ive wanted to play for a while i no nothing and was wondering if anyone could teach me and help me with settings

[zenith cobalt]

dm me im ssl

[real hinge]

done

[cyan sage]

yo how do you adjust the car when it's in the air so the wheels be on the ground
i can't control it mid air

[reef vessel]

To airrol, either use directional or free airrol. You should check what button you set it too in settings. For directional I recommend Square and Circle, or the relevant equivalent to it on xbox etc. You can press and hold airrol combined with your sticks, to manoeuvre in the air.

[woeful helm]

what can I do to see/hit the ball easier while on the wall. like when it rolls up and I follow for a challenge, i just end up going right past the ball or turning too tight or too wide

the corner messing w me

[quasi otter]

How do i keep messing this up? https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/22mPEsOd-mBzQq/d1337yRRlMtW?invite=cr-MSw2SzgsMzc3NjEyMzQs

I had good touches

[thick vine]

the mental on low ranks has to be studied

one of the funniest things ong

[calm kiln]

Im perfect everyone sucks -hardstuck gold

[thick vine]

not even that

lose 1 game and the instantly leave

or get mad like tf its 10 mmr bro

[calm kiln]

its the im perfect mentality

they think they cant win cuz their team is too bad

so they leave

[thick vine]

lmao fr

then they are the same rank a month later

[calm kiln]

sometimes i keep track on shittalkers

and yes usualy they are hadstuck

[twilit roost]

can someone teach me some mechs

[dry wadi]

Tbf mechs are kinda overrated in this game

[frozen kettle]

You need harder touches you were touching it with the bottom front of your car, you can do what you did but you need to use more boost

Also if anyone wants to learn ones Im trying to play some private match games dm me (I peaked GC1 in ones but im washed now)

[scarlet furnace]

could anyone help me with ground pinches i can do everything its just when i flip into the ball my car is always turned upsidown instead of 90 degrees

[wintry mason]

How do you lock the voice chats?

[stone plume]

Nvm

[proven parrot]

hello i am not able to play ranked yet but i wish to become diamond or even master and if someone would like to teach me i would greatly appreciate it

[rancid forge]

anyone have tips i peaked dim 2 div 3 in 2v2 this szn but i wanna switch 3v3 but im stucl in gold beacuse i have really bad teammates

[cosmic hearth]

Im Diamond but Im good But im not consistently good Its every game after the next i got good mechs for a diamond Im just not consistent with touches

[nocturne breach]

yes, don't blame your teammates

[nocturne breach]

it comes with practice and time

[rancid forge]

but they are gold 2s and there highest rank is plat while ppl on the other team are diamond winners

[radiant temple]

how do i win more gold games?

[nocturne breach]

change your mindset

if you rely too much on your teammates, it means you lack individual skill

and you don't have a great game sense

this is what you have to focus on

when i was gc in 3s few seasons ago, i was getting tms with champ in 2s, and my opponents were gc3-ssl in 2s/1s. So what? I wasn't getting clapped, in fact, i was winning some of these games, because i didn't focus on the skill gap between my teammates and the opponents, but rather focused on the perspective of the gameplay, focused on the strength of my teammates and how could i use it in my advantage, focused on their weak points as well, so that i should know what i have to cover for them, and was also looking for weakpoints in the defence of my opponents. The game can be in your hands if you think this way and you can make an impact in these matches. Sure, you will lose a couple of games due to the fact that maybe your tms weren't as strong as your opponents, but this is how ranked is, in the long term you will not improve if you only focus on this thing

and in 3v3 anything can happen, because the team synergy matters a lot more than the individual skill of each player

there are 2 ways to rank up in 3s: the most common one is to be aware of your surroundings and play smart, mostly as a very good third man and support for your team

the other one is making your way to the top by using raw skill, but it means you must be insanely good and consistent with mechanics, not to mention the speed of your gameplay, but i don't recommend focusing on that, because it means your mechanical level must be at least 3 ranks above your current rank, and the only way you can improve this is by playing scrims with higher ranks

[hidden lintel]

yo surely i can get some free coaching for 15 minutes

[grave yew]

Master

💀

[nocturne breach]

champ is a master rank tho, they mastered the art of whiffing

[grave yew]

U should see bronze 3

/silver 1 depending on the day

[sturdy forge]

I'd prob say plat cause they tryna do stuff they aren't able to do in the first place so they miss a lot

[raven citrus]

im trying to figure out how i saw someone pinch the ball off the ground with just their flip and no setup.

im already on yt digging

[grave yew]

Try bronze 😭 I can't hit a ball right infront of me

[grave yew]

Ever heard of kuxir ? Just do a kuxir on the ground 🤓

Joking but still

It doesn't seem like it'd be too hard

Pinches are the only thing I can do at a level higher than silver

[raven citrus]

found the old vid i think, im good.

[grave yew]

You'd just have to land on it no

[raven citrus]

if you genuinely want to know....ill tell you.

||theres a way to pinch the ball to the ground without carrying it up the wall utalizing the back of your car, it can pull insane momentum on a flat shot||

[grave yew]

Or u can just Luthor flick

[raven citrus]

which is the name of sed move.

[fresh trellis]

wjat in the World is a Luthor flick

[raven citrus]

its where u got the ball infront of u presumably after like a dribble and u jump so that your dodge pinches the back of your car on the ball, fastest straight shot in the game

and by back i mean the upper part of your back half

like the roof of the back half

considering pinches can literally rocket the ball across the roof, aiming one straight foward is a brutal save if its not anticipated.

[fresh trellis]

krazy

[daring gorge]

gold 2 in 1s 2s or 3s?

[severe arch]

Gold: Get down the basics of the game such as rotations, positioning, power clears, decent saving, shooting, (not passing), reads, and keeping control of the ball. Once you have a good grasp on all of these its a matter of time before you get to plat.

[daring gorge]

well passes depend on if its solo q or with friends

[mortal quail]

It doesnt tho

[daring gorge]

i mean yeah you will need passes in solo q aswell but not in gold 2

[mortal quail]

Until like gc2, passes in solo queue 2s isnt a good idea

[real hinge]

looking for a coach someone to teach me how to get better and be good ill put in the hours

[daring gorge]

gc 2? id say way earlier like d1-d2

[mortal quail]

Definitely not, passing in diamond is a deadzone
You can get away with it at like c2 with a duo

[daring gorge]

my duo and i have been passing since like gold 3 ish

[mortal quail]

Ya i dont recommend
But you do you

[daring gorge]

i would say its effective

[grave yew]

Instructions not clear: passed to other team and they own goaled 😭

[weary cloud]

Hey guys, Im siver 2 and I need someone who teaches me. Im new to this game 😄 pls dm

[proud chasm]

lucky

[rustic hemlock]

you don’t need coaching

literally

just practice hitting the ball towards the general area of the other teams net

like big clears and you’ll score everytime

[proud chasm]

then in gold he will get destroyed 👽

[rustic hemlock]

well that’s a problem for future him 😂

[proud chasm]

yep

[rustic hemlock]

honestly

best advice up till plat

and even a lil diamond is just play more

[proud chasm]

i remember when i reached gold i was like "wtf why are the goals so high"

[rustic hemlock]

i miss having fun 😞

[proud chasm]

id think so

in plats i would say u should defend more and counter

[rustic hemlock]

they hook u in from silver to diamond

and then the adrenaline rush when you hit champ

[proud chasm]

am champ 2

[rustic hemlock]

and then it alllll becomes just pain.

[rustic hemlock]

that was my peak

now i’m washed c1

[proud chasm]

nice

[proud chasm]

i was GC back in my prime

[rustic hemlock]

lmao

grandpa used to bench 405 “back in his day”

[proud chasm]

back in Ss8

[nocturne breach]

passing in d1-d2: scoring 20% of the time, solo plays and pick the ball up after the play: scoring 70% of the time, maybe is not accurate, but it gives you an idea why you should never go for passes below gc

[proud chasm]

🫥

[nocturne breach]

passing is actually very bad in low ranks because if you look on a larger scale, you have to trust 2 people below gc that their skill is good enough to have accurate shots in a pass and score

you have higher chances to score if u dont pass

[rustic hemlock]

but

[proud chasm]

agreed

[rustic hemlock]

just playing devils advocate

it’s so much fun to pass

[nocturne breach]

and besides, you should know when to pass, you should not pass always, just in certain conditions

your main goal is to outplay the opponents

[proud chasm]

even champs nowadays can't even reach some passes

[proud chasm]

ig if ur team can shoot well it will be worth it

[nocturne breach]

it is, but is not effective

passing requires a huge amount of skill

and control over your car and the ball, not to mention the accuracy

in higher ranks you won't have setup for simple passes since people know to stay close to the play and disrupt your play so you have to go for advanced stuff

[proud chasm]

but i will recommend passing only when you are in a VC with ur teammate bcoz randoms can't take passes, most of the time..

[nocturne breach]

yeah, an example would be in 3s when as first man instead of rotating back when the ball goes behind you, you take mid boost and go on the wall or midfield and the second or third man gives you a long pass and you can do a redirect, if is a double tap, even better because isn't very readable

[proud chasm]

nah, it depends on the player and his game sense

[proud chasm]

ok...

[nocturne breach]

what, is wrong? lmao

[proud chasm]

nop

[nocturne breach]

this is what most people do in 3s to score

[proud chasm]

nothin

[nocturne breach]

asides from the demos

[rancid eagle]

i need a coach

[fluid coral]

Hey, ive been struggling in 2v2 recently to rank up, im not sure what my ranks are since i use a mod to hide them, but my user name is MCBentHoney if somebody has RL tracker, im just lost with my tm8s generaly since most games i drop 1k pionts or close to it, but i get overwhelmed in 2 on 1 defence im not sure if its me trying to do to mutch or my tm8s too little but i dont have a 2s tm8 so i have to solo q

[cyan sage]

can sm1 help me get lvl 20 i'm lvl 19 rn

[fresh field]

let me know if someone can help me find my mistakes im champ 1 and i play ranked 2s EU PC (help me improve)

[nimble temple]

This game points mean so little. It all about doing what it takes to win. You could have 500 and still do everything right. 2 on 1 defense is tough but you have to be aggressive on the ball. Get it away from your goal.

[fluid coral]

I get pionts mean little but they mean quite alot about what you do in the game im 782 pionts this game my oponents on 700 each and my tm8 is on 90 how do you think that game went?

Most promanent is i just need a reliable tm8, and i get it im not perfect i over commit chase, under comit rotational errors misses ect, but consistantcy is something lacked in my rank

compared to me atleast

[nimble temple]

Your teammate being on 90 sucks sure. But play around what they are doing wrong.

[fluid coral]

That is what you can say if your a higher lvl player than your oponents

remember a diamond 3 cant 2v1 2 daimond 3s

[nimble temple]

I mean. They can kinda. It’s never a true 2v1

Your teammate is still in the game

[fluid coral]

1.3 v 2 is still a loss

since you will barely ever be able to score and the offensive presure from your oponents is alot mroe than you can dish out

[nimble temple]

Your mindset of everything falling on your teammate is where your falling flat

[fluid coral]

No offence i aprecait the help but rank?

[nimble temple]

GC

[fluid coral]

Check my tracker RQ

[nimble temple]

Ok

What about it

[fluid coral]

What do you notice?

YOu talk alot about the individual ability of the player

[nimble temple]

You play a lot of ones

[fluid coral]

I play a 4th of the 1s games i play 2v2

if not less, yet my rank is higher there? maybe i need tm8s and cant 2v1

I agree as a last resort

i could spend an extra 1k hours on getting better

then be good enough to be GC and 2v1 my way out of champ

or i could get advice to work withhh tm8s instead of around them

[nimble temple]

I think your ones gameplay is good from the look of your tracker. I think you need to kinda break away from playing like it’s ones. And adapt to 2s

Without gameplay I can’t give specific help

[fluid coral]

Thanks for the help.

[nimble temple]

1s gameplay compared to 2s is so vast

[fluid coral]

im aware as a 2s main

i notice the diffrence, i just notice that my tm8s cant keep up with the lvl of play my oponents dish out

resulting in hard stuck d3/c1

since im only peak c3

its har to reach a higher piont with 2v1 odds to get more consistant tm8s

[pure plume]

if you complain about teammates why don't you just find a mate you can work with and queue up with them?

[fluid coral]

i dont have friend 😗

i live in south africa

[pure plume]

then make some

[fluid coral]

I use to have friends but now nobody plays on the same level

[pure plume]

you're apart of an entire discord of people who play rocket league

[fluid coral]

and the next players are all GC

[fluid coral]

0.7% are from my country

region*

[pure plume]

surely there's a discord server dedicated to your region

[fluid coral]

Kind off, for all the other games rl not included and the RL one im banned on, beacuse i slept with somebodies sister

the problem is everything is too personal so there isnt any space for us to just play

[pure plume]

ok weird flex didn't need to know that

I mean you can just make an alt

[fluid coral]

IP

[fresh field]

let me know if someone can help me find my mistakes im champ 1 and i play ranked 2s EU PC (help me improve)

[pure plume]

well in that case you screwed up

[fluid coral]

Idk how but anyway ty for trying

[fluid coral]

you got replays?

[fresh field]

nah but share screen

[fluid coral]

perfect check dms

[wanton torrent]

I'd like some feedback from a high ranked 1s player (around c3 or higher) on my 45 flick. I have a lot of practice on it and can hit 110+ flicks semi consistently. I would just like to compare technique and see what other people do differently, or just something I could work on.
