gameplay-tips

[cyan sage]

idk its kinda hard to tell what exactly you need to work on

by the gc2 you should know what to do

its just fixing ur own mistakes

and idk what those are

improving ur mechs to capitalise on the space that ur opponents give you is good too

the better ur mechs the less space youll technically need

[high dome]

yeah I guess I haven't thought about that

what rank are you currently though?

[cyan sage]

unranked

[high dome]

oh, whats ur peak

[cyan sage]

like c3 lmfao

i do not play this game for rank

[high dome]

ahh ok are you just a coach then

[cyan sage]

yea i retired liek 10 szns ago

[high dome]

well duhhhh, what rank are you then

[trail aurora]

can someone coach me and my friend we are platinum 1

[cyan sage]

if you wanna go over a replay or sum we can

easier to tell what you need to work on that way

am gonna shower and eat tho

[high dome]

I can maybe tomorrow or sunday, im at my gfs house rn, I think im banned in this server on my own discord account lol

[severe arch]

that must suck

[high dome]

yeah

[high dome]

do yk red?

im pretty sure u do actually

[severe arch]

yeah

what was ytour mains name

[high dome]

[severe arch]

shade yeah i remember you

[high dome]

hehehe

[orchid condor]

[high dome]

Kendrick.

wasnt that ur name

[severe arch]

@umbral crag

[orchid condor]

yuhh

[high dome]

yeah i remember yu

[amber garden]

But with the arrows thing that puts the ball ahead of you

[high dome]

jid is peak too tho w pfp

[trail aurora]

can someone learn me how to freestyle and mechanics

[left dagger]

D1 atm I think idk peak c3 d4

[pure plume]

do you have any experience with it?

[trail aurora]

ya some

[pure plume]

what can you do

[high dome]

ah nvm then

[pure plume]

and what do you wanna be able to do

[trail aurora]

air dribble, double tap, and musty flick and i want to be able to ceiling shot and flip reset

or just tips on that stuff

[pure plume]

have you watched any tutorials?

[trail aurora]

i watched a tutorial from maktuf

[high dome]

can one of yall fs people help me with something @pure plume @severe arch

[trail aurora]

but it didnty help too muchj

[pure plume]

what's up

maktuf's tutorials are really good

[high dome]

what are some cool mechs similar to maktuf

I can already do those a little bit

[trail aurora]

@pure plume do you think we could hp in a pricate game and you can help me

[pure plume]

jakze is basically maktuf but the other way

[high dome]

but I want something else

[pure plume]

sure dm me your epic

[high dome]

like frontflip cancel + dar?

[rigid egret]

@pure plume can you help me ?

[high dome]

instead of backflip + dar?

[pure plume]

yeah look up maktuf's freestyle master class video on jakze+maktuf

he explains them super well

[pure plume]

yeah

[high dome]

bet thank you ill check it out

[pure plume]

what's up

no worries

[rigid egret]

like air dribbleing

im good but bad at the same time

[pure plume]

do you have the setup down for them?

[rigid egret]

yes i know how to do them but not just keeping them up for a longer time

[rigid egret]

can you help me ?

[pure plume]

try to stay under the ball and look for some tutorials for long air dribbles

[rigid egret]

okay

[proud fern]

lf someone to coach me (im plat 3)

[cyan sage]

WAIT SHADE???

LMFAOOO WHAT

WAIT UR A GIRL??

[high dome]

[high dome]

IM NJOT TRYING TOO BRUH

i was lookng for 1s tips thats all!

[cyan sage]

NHA I THOUGHT I HAD FOUND ANOTHER GAMER GIRL

dawg just add me on ur main

we can replay later if u want or sum

[high dome]

alright ill add u

lemme add my discord to her computer

[cyan sage]

LMFAOOOOO

DAWG

[severe arch]

whatchu need

[hot vine]

in freeplay if i try to hit a certain shot or hit the ball in a certain part of the net i am unable, its so sad to have some ideas of what to do and be completely unable to perform ir

[swift geyser]

.

[radiant temple]

can someone help me with getting more consistent at hitting the ball or giving me a map code for it?

[keen coral]

Hello im stuck in 3s plat 3 if im unsure wether my teammate is able to hit the ball should i take it myself or be ready for the miss

[hot vine]

how do i defend man its so hardd

[pure plume]

be ready for the miss, if you go double commit you'll most likely just screw your mate up even more

[desert pelican]

Willing to coach under c1 rn

[floral knot]

me

[hot vine]

c2 in 1s and its just not enough, i kinda just realised i was flipping way too late on kickoffs which helped...

[keen coral]

Alright thanks

[cyan sage]

Is left directional air roll better to use?

[floral knot]

no, whatever you like to use

but use air roll left because many pros do use it. (you can copy the movements from them)

i wish i used airroll left before, now i cant just switcht to left :/

[cyan sage]

One more question im d1 in 2’s p2 in 1’s p1 in 3’s what mechanics should I be focused on getting consistent at? I can speedflip consistently thats about the only mechanic I have I can do front flip flicks and diagonal flicks as well

[cyan sage]

Oof luckily I started with left

[floral knot]

lucky

[floral knot]

in 2s you should learn flicks and dribbles and power shots

[lament portal]

Anyone have any camera setting/general setting set up’s for their PC that might help me dribble the ball better? 😅 thank you friendly random human(s)😏:🚗⚽️

[cyan sage]

I’ve been trying to learn a mawkzy flick for 1’s but the tutorial videos I watch are hard to copy

[floral knot]

its good but sometimes you need regular flick

for 1s learn shadow defense

[cyan sage]

Whats the right distance to keep between the other player when shadow defending?

[hexed quest]

depends on the situation

[cold night]

Im brand new any tips
Also is tradeing gone

[next cave]

What type of tips would you want to know?

[lament thistle]

In silver rn, how do I push to gold. Like the requirements to do and the mechanics to learn

[next cave]

I would learn how to rotate simply and focus on basic ball control

[topaz heath]

do training packs that focus on power shots and saves id say - you should focus on getting better at aerials w/out anything fancy

also a huge thing that helps everybody and will help you for as long as you play is just going into freeplay and chasing the ball hitting it as hard as possible before it bounces twice anywhere in the map

helps you learn the physics and get better car control

[next cave]

Any tips for pushing diomand?

[topaz heath]

In what mode specifically

[next cave]

Mainly 2s and 3s

[topaz heath]

ok im d2 in 3s and d3/c1 in 2s, id say you need to be good at aerials, recoveries (so that your car doesn't get stuck in stupid situations + half flipping), use training packs to improve power on shots and accuracy at the fundamental level of shots youd see game to game

and finally rotating which i want to improve on a lot

prob gonna use youtube to get better

[lament thistle]

could i also try dribbling in the air and ground? Seems cool

[topaz heath]

you can try whatever you want - i dont think you need either of those to be gold

[next cave]

I am a plat and I don't need air dribling

[topaz heath]

yeah

and honestly in diamond and champ i see more air dribbles than ground dribbles unless youre in 1s

[next cave]

Thanks for the help, @topaz heath!

[topaz heath]

np

[lament thistle]

luptyy whats your rank? Seem like your very experienced

[next cave]

He is d2 in 3s and d3/c1 in 2s

[lament thistle]

don't know the lingo mate

nvm diamond

took me a sec 💀

[topaz heath]

d2 3s, d3/c1 2s, d3/c1 1s

I just came back to the game a month ago after 2 years, but I started playing 2019

I have very good mechanics for a champ but I struggle with game sense I think I'm getting better tho

[lament thistle]

only played for one season and played for 60 hours

[cyan sage]

lf someone to watch me play a few 2s games and tell me what i do wrong

[eternal fog]

I need a coach for me and my tm8 we are trying to learn but suck lol. we are silver

[cobalt summit]

any1 tryna tell me why im not gc i can stream my games

[trim wasp]

how do i find a teamate when i get blocked after one loss

[trail aurora]

someone coach me and my friend we are plat

[eternal fog]

I need a coach for me and my tm8 we are trying to learn but suck lol. we are silver

[fiery hound]

bro i go between d3-c2 and i have gc1 ish mecs its just my gamesense is so ass so i rlly dk what to do

[muted crane]

I need help I’m d3 and trying to go to champ and if I could have someone look at my mistakes or something I’d be very grateful.

Mainly positioning for me

[mint dune]

main thing abt d1-c2 even c3 is honest just watching what ur tm8 is doing and preparing for the worst case scenario they always never do what they r supposed to do, so u want to learn to play defense so u can cover for their mistakes

[worthy herald]

I’m up and down going between play and diamond on 3s and need help with gameplay mechanics

[toxic needle]

Nah man you shouldn't think "like pros"
The best way is to actually realize what you HAD TO do by yourself in that situation and not what a pro would do

[umbral torrent]

hey can someone help me get better at rocket league im a champ 1 player but i don’t think im that good

[errant barn]

mechs isn’t related to rank and there’s non mechanical gc1s out there just try viewing ur replays

[cyan sage]

ur prob the worst plat of all times

[karmic yoke]

Nah, I am the worst platinum teammate.

[cyan sage]

dont be so harsh on ur self

[karmic yoke]

How am I diamond in 1v1 but platinum 1 in 2v2?

[cyan sage]

gawd damn

its the opp for me

[karmic yoke]

I am going against champions over here.

Sometimes GCs :/

[cyan sage]

cap

[karmic yoke]

Bro, they always say "I don't play 1v1".

It is the same thing.

[cyan sage]

k thn i would like to see u n 1v1

add me JXR RL.

[karmic yoke]

Noooooooooo!

What rank are you in 1v1?

[cyan sage]

plat

[karmic yoke]

Bro what.

[cyan sage]

but still think i can beat u

[karmic yoke]

Platinum what?

[cyan sage]

plat 3

[karmic yoke]

Okay you can beat me.

[cyan sage]

i am a diamond mid

in 2s

[karmic yoke]

I never been diamond in 2v2 or 3v3.

[cyan sage]

y dont we 1 v1

[karmic yoke]

Because, I am bad.

[cyan sage]

wich server r u

[karmic yoke]

US-EAST.

[karmic yoke]

There is a chance you could beat me. :/ I keep falling out of diamond.

[cyan sage]

same

i am a high plat low dimond

[nocturne breach]

you dont have gc1 mechs

gc1 mechs means you can consistently get to at least c3 just by playing the game and not even using your brain

usually you can sit at low gc1

no one cares what you can do in freeplay or casual, those mechs are an absolute 0!! everything that matters is what you can do in ranked games

because you won't always get the setups that you want as in freeplay or have space to pull them off

[muted crane]

Thanks

[cyan sage]

truee

[karmic yoke]

They left my game saying "I'm too good". T_T IF I WAS I WOULD BE IN DIAMOND CONSISTENTLY.

I hate this game sometimes.

[cyan sage]

just join

[near grotto]

U gotta learn rotations 😭

[cyan sage]

ended up losing 11 7 lol

[karmic yoke]

Bro called me a curse word saying i was a because i was on 300 ping.

Wut.

[mint dune]

dumb question but i’ve been playing rl since 2020 i’ve peaked at c3 and i never figured out where to go to view my replays

[cyan sage]

like just get better

[mint dune]

how do i watch them

[cyan sage]

go profile

then replays'

[mint dune]

is that on xbox too?

[karmic yoke]

when they were on 300 ping they got 0 goals xD

no way dude, what is this community.

[cyan sage]

yep

[mint dune]

bro u both suck stfu

[karmic yoke]

No u.

[mint dune]

i’ll 2v1 u

[karmic yoke]

I don't care big ego.

[mint dune]

true

[cyan sage]

I need someone to coach me in c1

[cyan sage]

Dm me

[umbral torrent]

can someone help me get better

[potent bay]

What do I do when my tm8s just arent playing in 2s??

[dusky fiber]

u mean if they go afk or what?

[potent bay]

Jep

[dusky fiber]

shouldnt happen too often, do u maybe chase and play egoistic? or flame? some people might be triggert and go afk cause of these things

[potent bay]

Nope they just went afk at start of the match :/

[median coral]

Dm if possible

[ancient marsh]

In lower ranks ive seen it happen a lot for like no reason, he just has to get lucky with the tm8 he gets

[fallow lion]

how do you outplay someone

[unreal token]

anyone got tips for pulling out a pass to a tm8

[unreal token]

being creative

[leaden pewter]

Fake

[dusky fiber]

try to pass more safely and less risky, otherwise your mate will cant either go for it cause its too risky or he goes for it and u might concede a goal if he isnt fast enough

[unreal token]

like how to pass it to mid field for tm8 I just can't shoot it towards him

[jagged spoke]

Guys im gold 2 and i can airdribble but i need help making it better who wanna join me?

[sick plover]

you can not airdribble my guy

[cloud plume]

Ay I'm currently champ 2 rn, I'm getting put with tm8s that can't rotate or aerial properly, how do I adapt to there play style ?

[jagged spoke]

Its not the best airdribble cuz im gold but i can pop it off the walla and touch it 2 times and score and i wanna make it better so gimme some tips

[sick plover]

dont focus on air dribbling. if your gold learn to just hit the ball normally

[cloud plume]

you don't need to air dribble in gold lobbies, focus more or power shots, ball control and rotations, this will even help In higher ranking lobbies

good to learn at a low rank

[jagged spoke]

Oh okay

[sick plover]

play thinking they will miss, its simple really, dont trust your teamates and always guard your net. your opponents will troll away free goals.

[cloud plume]

even in champ 2-3 lobbies they miss the ball 75% of the time

[sick plover]

and so does your opponents

so free goals if you just guard your net

[jagged spoke]

Guys what gamemode should i play to improve my skills?

[sick plover]

1s

or freeplay

[jagged spoke]

Okay thanks

I usually play 2s

[nocturne breach]

if u are below gc dont do that

and i assume you are, because in gc your tm should be close to the play most of the time and you know where they are on the field, if you'd have a decent control you'd know how to pass to them, and if you have some awareness you should know when not to pass, so that it doesn't backfire

passes below gc are super useless and i never recommend them

you are relying on a teammate that cant hit the ball properly, and is not close to the play most of the time because they go all the way back for big boost

people who say they can pass in low ranks are simply lying or they are just not playing at an effective level

below gc you just do solo plays, maybe even hit the ball on the backboard for your teammate or make it awkward for opponents and turn back to score, or win time to get mid boost idk

proper passes are ONLY and ONLY for gc2-SSL and good freestylers

because it requires a large amount of skill

even if you hit an insane pass in champ or diamond, you probably missed other 30

instead of doing something better and have higher chances to score

consistency is key on passes, this is why you'll see most of them only in high ranks

[nocturne breach]

no, all of them

[nocturne breach]

1s, 2s and 3s

[sick plover]

3s aint gonna give him anything

he is gold

[nocturne breach]

doesn't matter, still has to play it

you have to play all 3 game modes

if you want to be a solid player

[sick plover]

if he wants to improve he needs to touch the ball as much as possible

[nocturne breach]

that's simply not true

you dont always have to touch the ball

[sick plover]

ofc not

is that what im saying?

[nocturne breach]

and in 3s you focus on game sense, not touching the ball

[sick plover]

yea but he is gold, stop

he needs to learn how to control the ball over anything

3s will not give him anything

[jagged spoke]

I can dribble

[sick plover]

no mate you cant

you are gold

[jagged spoke]

?

I know but i know how but it still needs work

[nocturne breach]

you just told him to play only 1s, he will lack everything that has to do with team playing after he decides to switch the modes, just let him play all 3 modes

[sick plover]

i did not tell him to only play 1s, where did you see that. he asked what game mode he should play to improve and i told him the 2 modes that will help him the most

[nocturne breach]

doesn't matter, still has to play 2s at least, if not 3s too

[sick plover]

2s he should still play 3s he shouldnt. 3s ranked is a joke

[nocturne breach]

i know a guy that was diamond in 1s after 1000+ games played in that season, but he was diamond in 2s as well

can you guess why?

i will give you 100 cr if u have the correct answer

oh nvm trading is removed lmao

[sick plover]

where did i say he shouldnt play 2s? can you read?

[nocturne breach]

you said 1s and freeplay

[sick plover]

1s is the game mode where people improve the most you can ask any coach

just shush

[nocturne breach]

i think that's a delulu argument you have there, but is fine, whatever you think lol

[sick plover]

did not say, dont play 2s. i told him the 2 gamemodes that will help him the most, once again learn to read

[sick plover]

hey man, my 2k mmr speaks for itself, also know plenty of ssls that would say the same as me, but yea you as a champ prob know better then me and the pro coaches that i have talked to

keep up the good work

[nocturne breach]

that's exactly the reason why your argument will not work on a gold

[hybrid pine]

how to improve the fastest at plat 1? ive played with many people who said i deserve like diamond (gcs and ssls too) and yeah theyve all said my positioning should be champ if i get a teammate who has some game sense

[sick plover]

why would that argument not work for a gold. a gold will literally not gain anything from playing gold 3s lobbies where all 6 people drive around cluelessly. 1s is the gamemoe with the most clarity and where he will get the best understanding of the game from. its simply factual that everyone should be prioritize 1s if they want to improve.

[hybrid pine]

alrighty

[unreal token]

I am D3 in C3½ lobbies so............

[finite creek]

how do i get good at stall resets

[sick plover]

practice

[finite creek]

yeah obviously but when im doing the spin it feels like im always too slow

and by the time i do the stall im like half way to the ground

[sick plover]

the spin has nothing to do with the reset, its just a way to get underneath the ball.

just dont do the spin then

[safe turret]

Everyone has opinions and pathways that benefit them more. No point in arguing or debating.

[sick plover]

telling someone at gold to play 3s is just missguidance

[safe turret]

I mean it isn't. You are playing to get better playing 3s helps your awareness

[sick plover]

awarness to what?

[safe turret]

Gives you more time to look around to see what your tm8s are doing

Where as 1s it's alot harder.

[pure plume]

golds don't need to focus on that though

[sick plover]

you understand that having awarness to gold 3s will give you nothing in the long run

[pure plume]

golds should focus on getting better mechanically, which means 1s or 2s would be better as they have more chances on the ball

[safe turret]

Depends what the gold wants to do with the time. And the goal they want to achieve

Some people just play for fun and others want to get better.

But yes gold is very easy to get out of with time,

[pure plume]

if they play for fun why would you guide them to 3s instead of telling them to play what they want to

[sick plover]

yea fair enough, @jagged spoke if your goal is to have fun and not get better at the game play 3s buddy👍 listen to driller

[pure plume]

haha

[safe turret]

Depends on his goal. I didn't say not to play 1s or 2s. Every game mode has it's different features.

[sick plover]

and what goal would he have that requires playing gold 3s?

[safe turret]

Some people main 3s same goes for other modes. It's preference

[pure plume]

who are you to decide what they main?

[sick plover]

yea and all of those players end up hard stuck

[safe turret]

When did I tell or force them to main a certain game mode I don't believe I did

[pure plume]

why are you so stuck up on 3s then

[safe turret]

Well someone said 1s.

[sick plover]

this guy asked what modes to play to improve and i gave him the truth,if he wants to improve as an individual he should play 1s freeplay and 2s. him even touching 3s will just slow down his progress

[pure plume]

so?

[nocturne breach]

u are wrong honestly

[safe turret]

I don't know I mean me personally I play 2s and when I go on a losing streak I switch.

[nocturne breach]

since i reached gc in 3s for the first time, it made a huge impact on my 1s and 2s games

[safe turret]

That way there is a balance

[pure plume]

fr 3s you don't have nearly enough time on the ball, golds should focus on 1s or 2s where it's less complicated and you have more time on the ball so they can improve mechanically if they wanna get better faster

[nocturne breach]

you should play all 3 game modes

[pure plume]

you're not gold are you?

[nocturne breach]

3s can teach you game sense even if u are gold

[safe turret]

You really don't need time on the ball even if you have little time it's about using the time you have right. And not giving away possession so easily

[sick plover]

3s is an extramode mate. if you want to get better at 3s, get rank b in 6mans and then start playing it

[pure plume]

yes ofc but they shouldn't focus on that when they can barely hit the ball

[nocturne breach]

3s is an extra mode? how did you even get to "ssl" or whatever you claim to be

[pure plume]

bro they're gold

[nocturne breach]

3s is the official game mode in rl

[sick plover]

ranked 3s

[pure plume]

driller your advice makes absolute sense for people who can consistently hit the ball

[sick plover]

there is a reason no one plays it

[safe turret]

Right but this gold wants to improve and get better therefore it isn't about ball chasing

[pure plume]

1s and 2s are better for getting the feeling for the game

dude are you even reading my messages

[fallow lion]

3s is bad because you are playing against parties 60% of the time

[safe turret]

That's what training is for to hit the ball

[pure plume]

or that sure

but you wanna have opponents too so you know how to play against someone

[sick plover]

read the second part of the sentence buddy, 3s is only valid for improvement in higher ranks to simply improve at 3s. 6mans and scrims. ranked will not get you anywhere

[sick plover]

.

i misspoke right there, not higher ranks. higher level of gameplay

[safe turret]

You train before going into a match either way. If it's playing 1s 2s or 3s at gold level. You should be able to hit the ball. Yes you may miss, however that's how you learn no?

[pure plume]

yes

you learn faster in 1s and 2s because you have more chances for yourself

[sick plover]

its about the amount of opprotunities, which in 1s and 2s you will have way more of

so more misses=more learning

[pure plume]

exactly

[safe turret]

Yes that's right it means more missing.

But I do feel like 3s play a big part of the learning curve for a low ranked player. It allows them to pass more rely on eachother ect. Yes 2s is for fast improvement. But 3s can be implemented into 2s.

[pure plume]

how can golds pass when champs-low gcs struggle with it

you're expecting too much of them

[sick plover]

a gold dsnt need to learn how to pass lmfao. first they have too little ball control to even do so, second their teamates will never be in the right position. all this would do is ruin their 3s game sense for the future

[jagged spoke]

3s is chaos?

[safe turret]

I'm talking about getting better, yes they are in gold now for short term but long term they need to know how to pass. So it's just good to try it out even at the low rank they are at

[sick plover]

passing is never needed.

[safe turret]

Standard is 3s

[sick plover]

people dont even pass in ssl

[jagged spoke]

Yes

[pure plume]

you're not gonna tell a gold to "try out" double resets because they will need to know it in the highest level of gameplay

passing has it's time

and that time is not gold

[fallow lion]

how do u know

[sick plover]

because i have been ssl since season 3

[safe turret]

If I'm on the left side of the field and my tm8 is on the right. Instead of going for a goal pass. It isn't about winning it's about getting better.

[sick plover]

this is actually the exact reason why pros dont pass in ranked. they priorities working on their own mechs

[safe turret]

Yes, but you will always see an high GC SSL passing once every game at least.

[sick plover]

yes, but is this guy ssl?

he is gold and need to improve on himself

[safe turret]

No but what I'm saying is by passing he is getting used to passing, by learning this he won't have to do it in the future.

[sick plover]

oh okay so instead of improving as quickly as he can he should waste his time learning how to pass before he can even hit the ball faster than 50kph`? yeah man sound advice. you must be trolling

[safe turret]

We are going off no context other then the players rank is gold. We don't know how he plays, for all we know he could hit the ball faster than 50kph. Best not to assume the worst.

[sick plover]

yea lets assume he is zen

[safe turret]

Remember players are always below there potential rank especially in 2s and 3s.

[sick plover]

lmfaooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

yea go to sleep buddy

[safe turret]

I'll go to sleep at 12:37 in the afternoon yes, great idea

[pure plume]

yes that's the only context we have so we're giving advice based on that context

what's so hard to understand about that

[sick plover]

its incredible how people cant wrap their head around, controlling the ball=better ball control

[fallow lion]

are you really ssl

[safe turret]

You two were at each other 10-20 mins ago

[sick plover]

no we wernt?

[pure plume]

huh

[sick plover]

it was some arii person in here saying people should play 3s

[pure plume]

yeah that dude is odd

[sick plover]

another hardstuck champ playing 3s with friends i suppose

[pure plume]

who also starts insulting anyone he disagrees with 😔

[sick plover]

rn im gc3, been ssl since season 3 still

[fallow lion]

what mode

[sick plover]

been ssl in every mode

2002 in 2s 1950+ in 3s 1370 in 1s are my peaks. i barely play 1s and i only played 3s for one season for fun

with friends

[fallow lion]

how are you so good

[sick plover]

by playing freeplay 1s and 2s

as i have told others here

you will not get better by doing 30% of the work in a 3s game

when you can do 100% in 1s

you are cutting your improvement down significantly

[fallow lion]

what about freeplay

[sick plover]

what about it?

[fallow lion]

like what do you do in it

[sick plover]

depends what level you are at

[safe turret]

It helps to play all modes

But more than others such as 2s

[cold abyss]

how many mmr till gc? Im 1400

[orchid condor]

1415 i believe

[cold abyss]

so 2 games Im scared to play

[orchid condor]

probably 3, idk why but from my experience sometimes the big visual jumps require you to play 1 more game for it to update to gc for example

[cold abyss]

yh may be ur right

[orchid condor]

its a mental thing i think, so people dont immediatly drop out of the rank after 2 losses

[safe turret]

1435

[cold abyss]

thx

[safe turret]

You can lose 1 or 2 games before demotion I think as well

[lavish yacht]

What's the best settings rn

[safe turret]

How do you define the best

[lavish yacht]

I meant what's the good settings to use in ps4

[safe turret]

It's personal preference for in game settings. Copy a pros then change it to how you like it.

I doubt it you'll find it every 10 games.

Just wait until they mess up a mech. Then get a goal from it

Freeplay is your friend then learn the basics.

Watch some videos and attempt it

You said you can't save shots from them, it is possible you just have to predict what they will do

[fallow lion]

just ceiling challenge them

[safe turret]

He is gold 2. But yes challenging works.

Also look to see if they have their flip in the air still after a reset

Because that can catch you off guard.

Doesn't mean they a smurf just means the are not very good or don't play 1s

Freeplay for your mechs. Gameplay wise play to get better rather than winning

It's possible

Just takes time and your mentality

[orchid condor]

wrong, speed of play will keep increasing

[safe turret]

They have.

They probably just aren't SSL right now. Because they don't play ranked

Esl

Does that even exist anymore

Titles mean nothing

It's about how you perform on game day

Everyone to them self's. But a title doesn't prove much.

[orchid condor]

we;re already in s15?

[safe turret]

14 I think right

[pure plume]

you can only get a "diamond" title from tourneys

gc and ssl get titles from comp

[orchid condor]

14 is still insane lol, last time i went for gc title was s5

[pure plume]

no the season rewards only give titles for gc and ssl

[orchid condor]

are these seasons like 3 monrhs?

[pure plume]

go for it

[safe turret]

Even then it's just the same thing every year with a different number

[pure plume]

you can get a tourney winner diamond for every rank though

[pure plume]

yeah?

what's your point

[safe turret]

Just means titles mean nothing

[pure plume]

why are you so adamant on being negative

if he gets it it'll be cool and he proved to himself he can do it

[safe turret]

I'm not negative it's a fact that titles are worthless.

[pure plume]

how does that mean nothing?

[orchid condor]

gc is the highest title for casual players, for ssl it requires so much dedication

[pure plume]

always for gc and ssl

[safe turret]

My point was that you could go against a s14 SSL and they play not to the standard of SSL.

[pure plume]

ok who asked?

[safe turret]

You

[safe turret]

.

[pure plume]

.

you sound like you're projecting

hell yeah

[orchid condor]

why r u trolling lol, who are u?

bubba?

[safe turret]

I'm projecting

[pure plume]

honestly seems like it

you're going out of your way to put others motivations down even though no one asked for your input

[fallow lion]

i think anyone can get ssl if you just play the game a lot

[safe turret]

People just put it against you. "You aren't GC"

[pure plume]

again with the negativity

[safe turret]

I'm stating a fact

[pure plume]

jeez

[pure plume]

have you ever had a gc title?

[safe turret]

Yes

[pure plume]

then you'd know you're spitting bs, unless you were honestly boosted

[safe turret]

I'm not on the game haven't been for the past week

[pure plume]

I've never had anyone comment negatively on mine

fr

if you let it get to you and start malding over it that's on you

[safe turret]

That's literally what I was saying about titles. Bo0sted people have titles but don't play at that level. Therefore a title means nothing. It's about how you play.

But yes if you want to look cool go ahead.

[pure plume]

obviously it's about how you play

but why are you so adamant about being negative about titles

[safe turret]

Not being negative, I was just saying that they aren't what they used to be.

[pure plume]

no you are being negative 💀

[safe turret]

Now a days titles aren't as valued

I already said I haven't played for a week.

And I'm not home

Think of titles as a goal.

[pure plume]

literally what he said

.

[safe turret]

How can I prove on tracker that I have a title.

I have a screenshot of me reaching GC.

If that helps

[pure plume]

why not just tell him your tracker

[safe turret]

He can have my tracker but it has alot of the letter L in it.

[pure plume]

ok?

[safe turret]

Ok?

[pure plume]

what's the problem?

[safe turret]

What's your problem

[pure plume]

huh?

[safe turret]

I was just saying it would be inconvenient to type it in because there is alot of Ls. Then you put Ok??

I was putting it out there

[pure plume]

surely you can type out your own tracker

I can't see how that even can be a problem

[safe turret]

I sent in DMS rxin

Share to the world but yes thats it

[pure plume]

why is your peak c3

[safe turret]

Gc1

[pure plume]

well could just be bugged

[safe turret]

I got to 1440 something

[pure plume]

reward level gc so guess that part was true

[safe turret]

Does it not say GC rewards.

[pure plume]

tho you did prob get that from rumble

[safe turret]

I hit GC in 2s check your self believe what you would like

[pure plume]

yeah there are some gc 2s wins

weird it doesn't show gc as your peak tho

[safe turret]

I got rumble like 7 or 8 wins in GC then finished it off in 2s

[pure plume]

yeah it is

[safe turret]

Rumble* 7-8 wins

Depends who you go against at the time

[pure plume]

well he only has 18 1s games

[safe turret]

Sometimes you against a gc1/2 in 1s and sometimes your against a c2

[pure plume]

I assume he just doesn't play 1s

[safe turret]

I don't play 1s

[pure plume]

yeah I have 5 games in 1v1 and I'm d3 in it lmao

[safe turret]

I got snowday title last season too.

[pure plume]

5 win streak tho

[safe turret]

I had a 9 win streak until I ruined it

[pure plume]

search steam

santav55

I barely play comp as you can see

[safe turret]

Well they are on a pc what do you expect

[pure plume]

last season was prob my most active season for the past 10+ seasons

[safe turret]

Console is alot harder

Someone told me they switched from console to pc and increased by at least 2 ranks

[pure plume]

turn off cross-platform play if you're complaining about that lmao

[safe turret]

I'm not waiting 5 mins for a game

[pure plume]

then don't complain

or switch to pc

[safe turret]

I wasn't complaining I was just saying that pc have an advantage

[orchid condor]

i wouldnt say it's harder, it's just certain things console used to limit players, like input delay

[pure plume]

not rly if you turn off cross platform

[safe turret]

Input delay yes.

[orchid condor]

these days tho, i feel like tvs and console kinda caught up, being able to play 60-120fps with low latency

[safe turret]

You can't get 120 on console. At least for the S

There isn't an option for 120 FPS in the game.

Xbox s is good.

It's cheap and reliable

[fallow lion]

can someone tell me how to do the one thing pros do on the wall

[pure plume]

what thing

wall dashes?

[safe turret]

Not that important for lower level if it's wall dashes

[fallow lion]

that and something else

[pure plume]

what else

and for wall dashes start by looking up a tutorial

[safe turret]

How does your Xbox charge

Makes no sense

[fallow lion]

they do kinda like a weird flip towards the wall

[safe turret]

Wave dash

[orchid condor]

im pretty sure a friend of mine got 120fps on xbox x/s, not 100% sure tho

[safe turret]

I checked I have a monitor that supports it but on the S I don't think it's possible

[orchid condor]

you have to mess with settings i believe

[safe turret]

Otherwise I would be on 120

[pure plume]

do you have an example?

[orchid condor]

wait lemme google this

[safe turret]

Yeah in the Xbox settings you can enable it. But in the game there isn't an option

[orchid condor]

are u one of those trolls from back in the day? or a new one

[safe turret]

A pc will help you alot.

But isn't needed for improvement

[orchid condor]

mans said he wants to plug his xbox into his pc

[safe turret]

He's on something I need it

No

Pc is separate to a console

You can use a hdmi port to have it displayed on your monitor yes

[orchid condor]

aint no gen z out there this digitally disabled

[safe turret]

You just need to switch it when you want to go on your pc or vise versa

Pc only worth it, if you will use it alot and you can afford a decent one

Might be a delay unless he plugs it in with a cable

Send what to you.

You just deleted it

@orchid condor nothing?

[pure plume]

what's up?

yeah I'm just chilling in free play

[orchid condor]

sorry what?

[safe turret]

You said you was going to take a look into the 120 fps.

[orchid condor]

oh right i found some articles stating that rl does support 120 on consoles, but you need to put something on performance mode, i would asume the screen or something within the console settings itself

im on pc so idk too much abou tit

[safe turret]

Console don't get performance mode.

[orchid condor]

it was for xbox series x and s tho

"For example, Rocket League on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S is compatible with 120Hz displays, however, you need to navigate the game’s settings then go to ‘Video’ and select ‘Performance’ under ‘Video Quality’ for 120fps support."

[safe turret]

Yeah that's right

But in the game there's no option so it's hard to know if we getting 60 or 120

For example in Fortnite you can change the FPS from 60-120.

[orchid condor]

doesnt the game itself have an fps counter?

[safe turret]

I don't believe so without looking into it. Might be if I mess around with settings. But I always assumed it was 60 as I played on a TV most of the time and don't see a difference

[orchid condor]

settings -> interface -> performance graphs

[pure plume]

rl does have fps counter

[safe turret]

I'm not on RL so I can't check. But I'll keep that in mind.

[gilded fog]

how do i fix my ground control being randomly js dead, like yesterday i was basically peaking, today my ground control is js not it, like i'm struggling with catches and basic ground plays

[safe turret]

I mean take a break maybe

Then go in with a fresh mind

[orchid condor]

some training packs might also do the trick to getting the feeling back

[safe turret]

Even just using the freeplay command that puts it on top of your car.

[orchid condor]

oh damn, wayprotein played my perfect fast aerial pack lol, he put a comment under it

[safe turret]

No offence who is that.

[orchid condor]

he's the og from back in the day, before free to play. People would use his videos and tutorials to practice

[safe turret]

I was too young back then. Probably why I have never heard of him

[pure plume]

hm I've played since old season 3 and haven't heard of him

[orchid condor]

well ive been coaching, so i used quite a few of his stuff, maybe thats why i know him

[gilded fog]

such as..?

[safe turret]

Dribble to flick?

[gilded fog]

you need to make an adjustment after the tornado

[orchid condor]

@safe turret lmao damn its been 6 years

[safe turret]

I would of been 13 or 14

I didn't even know YouTube was a thing back then

[orchid condor]

ohh he's actually the creator of prejump, makes sense

if any of yall looking for packs: https://prejump.com/

[safe turret]

I haven't used training packs in a few years

[orchid condor]

they're pretty cool for casuals like me

[safe turret]

Can be fun though when you on pc.

[orchid condor]

its also for consoles

dont tell me they removed it for consoles

[safe turret]

Training packs are on console

If you talking about the code ones

[orchid condor]

yeah

[safe turret]

Yeah still have them. Nothing has really changed.

What players do you coach?

[orchid condor]

I didn't coach teams, i used to be a coach for fun here, had the volunteer title for a short while

[safe turret]

They remove it if you stop?

[orchid condor]

no, i figured out i didnt really care for the title

so i asked to remove it lol

[safe turret]

Fair enough what rank were you before.

[orchid condor]

just gc

never been anything above

[safe turret]

Before SSL was a thing?

[orchid condor]

yeah, close to free2play, until like season 5

then i quit

[safe turret]

Yeah I was to young to care back then.

[orchid condor]

thats fair

[safe turret]

I found it more fun before than now

Yes

Not many here will ask for an SSL to play with. Because lfg can be full of people that say they are but aren't

People already have their groups of people

That's wrong. SSLs do have an outside life

Just like every other game.

There is 44k gc1s.

Was he real though

[orchid condor]

man i created a pack where you need to perform a perfect speedflip but i can no longer hit it, sad life

[safe turret]

Air dribbles are a basic thing especially for an SSL.

I can't do the speed flips training however my kick off still beats the other player

I hold air roll, flip and cancel

[orchid condor]

i believe you, i use it to navigate around the pitch

[safe turret]

They don't lose speed?

[orchid condor]

i barely speedflip kickoff myself, ending up with 0 boost, i dont trust my teammate enough for that lol

[safe turret]

Always moving no matter what

They hit the ball and save there wave dash to get boost

If that's what you mean

It isn't that important.

In gold especially

[orchid condor]

lmao i hit it https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/24aLyD0SyFdaGv/d1337tYNfvpt?invite=cr-MSxQWlAsMjIzNTQ2NDYzLA

[safe turret]

Sending us a virus I see

Hit the ball 60% freeplay 40% game play

[wraith ruin]

60% freeplay is wild

[safe turret]

He is plat.

[orchid condor]

nah medal tv is just a clipping tool like gifyourgame

[safe turret]

He is gonna need it

Play around your tm8s instead of against them

[pure plume]

I've got 90% free play 😎

[safe turret]

Like what?

In plat focus on control of the ball and hitting it with power with accuracy

[pure plume]

can you half flip?

[safe turret]

Half flip is where you backwards flip into the 100 boost?

[pure plume]

half flip is a mechanic

not a specific situation

[safe turret]

Focus on dribbling I would say rather than air plays. I see these players on the pitch that outplay me. I'm more of an air guy

What about back post rotation

[pure plume]

half flips are fairly important

you could hone those if you wanna practice a specific mech

[safe turret]

You rotate to a certain point of the net so you are ready for the ball at an angle

[wraith ruin]

the post further away from the ball

[safe turret]

A YouTube tutorial works better.

Short and simple

Yeah. I'm not home

[wraith ruin]

i sent you a friend request

ballsexy

bottom right add friend

[soft egret]

how do you play against smurfs

[safe turret]

Play against them with the mindset that they aren't smurfs

[soft egret]

yeah but that doesnt work, the gameplay is so much different

[safe turret]

Play against and learn how they play

You shouldn't care about losing so much if you know it's an unfair game

[soft egret]

yeah no like weve won half of them but what we try to do is keep control then beat the smurf to the ball

[safe turret]

Demo him more often

If you partied up with a friend

[soft egret]

yeah but theyre too fast for that theyre gc3/ssl smurfs so

[safe turret]

In what rank

[orchid condor]

ssls usually smurf in gc+ tho

[soft egret]

yeah gc div3/4

[safe turret]

Solo q and beg that they are on your team

[pure plume]

almost no one smurfs solo

[safe turret]

Change region

Nothing really you can do

[soft egret]

change playstyles but its so much different

[safe turret]

Or just wait abit

[soft egret]

37 matches played, 4 of which were actually gc players. the rest was all a combination of 1520 and 1200

[safe turret]

I don't know if this is true but if you party up there is more chance you go against a party

[soft egret]

yeah it is true

the 4 matches were solo q and we beat them like 7-0

the smurf matches are just so annoying to play against bcs every smurf does its own thing and theres no adapting

[safe turret]

Go next try and make score as even as possible

At least make it a challenge

[soft egret]

eh ig

[safe turret]

Either that or give up.

And FF at 3:30

[soft egret]

ig so

[knotty thorn]

anyone know any good yt tutorials for dribbling
i can half do it but i still cant flick or consistently get the ball on top of my car

and i’ve spent hours practicing with no progress

[pure plume]

have you only practiced it today?

[dire meteor]

anyone down to help me learn musty flick

[pure plume]

have you practiced the musty at all?

[dire meteor]

little

[pure plume]

can you send me some clips?

[dire meteor]

who

[pure plume]

you

[dire meteor]

i dont have any on this pc

i facxtory reset not long ago

and clips went bye byer

bye bye*

[pure plume]

can you get some now?

[dire meteor]

can i get some like in freeplayu?

[pure plume]

yeah

[dire meteor]

okay what you want me to do

[pure plume]

just go for some musties

[dire meteor]

ive never actualllly gotten one

but i can try

[lavish yacht]

Can anyone help me do Horse dash

[pure plume]

watch a tutorial and find out what works and get the feel for it

[twilit aurora]

On ground or air?

[queen quest]

How do I practice my air dribbles

How do I do them anyways

[wild stratus]

can someone coach me

[queen quest]

i know how to

[pure plume]

yeah either free play or casual tryna hit clips with some friends

[wild stratus]

can someone coach me

[terse vault]

Yo can someone coach me to gc I’m c3 Div 2 rn in 2v2?

If your lower rank than me than there’s no point in listening to you because you’ve never hit gc so you wouldn’t know. That’s if you’re lower ranked than me

[sharp spoke]

I can man don't worry

[lavish kite]

can someone coach me im d2

[pure plume]

in free play prob ground pinch corner psycho

I'm mid and I'm proud of it 😎

oh gl

[slender wren]

champ 3 2s smart

[safe crest]

Are u mechy or not

[sharp spoke]

No

[severe arch]

just lock in

[sharp spoke]

How does one flick ball

[toxic talon]

once you learn how to control the ball while its on top of your car you can flick the ball, the only trick to flicking is flipping when you dont see the sparks between the ball and the car

[hasty holly]

How to get out of plat?

[proper stratus]

be more patient

[sharp spoke]

U do funny spins And flick

[toxic talon]

same thing as flicking but you need to learn how to jump with the ball

[sharp spoke]

You look like u flick but miss

[toxic talon]

the faster you are in general the easier it will be to defend/attack

[sharp spoke]

Yeah breezies are kinda pointless unless u have perfected the art cuz they take too long

[toxic talon]

learn how to condition your opponent, and save boost when you can

[sharp spoke]

Yup go for faster flicks or bang ball till they start too olag more passive

[toxic talon]

yes

[sharp spoke]

Cuz if all u try too fancy mechs there gonna rush u every time

[toxic talon]

when you take a 50/50 try to keep the ball close to you if you have low boost, and launch it far if you have high boost

[sharp spoke]

Deleted

[toxic talon]

i still dont know how to get a reset consistently and im gc

[sharp spoke]

I'm gold and I still can't do it

[toxic talon]

ill pass

[sharp spoke]

He only plays with gold players like me

What can I do with that

[toxic talon]

have it while you lose versus golds

and they start flaming you for having it

[sharp spoke]

Why would I want that tho

[proven nimbus]

i just hit plat 3 is that good?

[cyan sage]

plat 3 is below the average rocket league player

Diamond is average

[quaint sail]

yo anybody got any tips for air roll i'm on kbm and i'm using the air roll that uses shift for air dribbles and etc should i be using q and e for it instead?

[cyan sage]

I am a champ 1 hardstuck looking for someone to coach me and help me improve and get better I’m not sure what I need to improve on and how to do it

[visual dome]

i cant get out of gc1 (im gc2 but yk ranked down) looking for someone to help me

[dusky fiber]

n 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]

what do u struggle with? whats your issue?

[visual dome]

mates

[visual dome]

and im not even kidding

[dusky fiber]

so u mean u are not good at adapting?

[cyan sage]

I have one major problem with challenging in 1s almost all the times I am not sure whether I am supposed to challenge the ball or wait or keep shadowing and this leads to me getting scored on many times

[visual dome]

my gameplay is only about adaptation, i just cant with gc1 mates

[dusky fiber]

try not waiting too long, the closer u get to your goal, the less time u have to react, try not playing predictable, if u always fake 1 time and then challange he wont flick after your first flick, try staying close with similar speed so u can catch the ball if he flicks, if he does one mistake before it (touches it too much in the front, cant keep it on top of his car,etc...) challange

[dusky fiber]

so u think u should be gc2 from your playstyle etc.?

[visual dome]

no im gc2 since january (peaked it like march 2023)

[cyan sage]

So do you think I should pay more attention to my opponents car also and the way it’s positioned to try and find a gap to challenge ?

[dusky fiber]

so u stuggle getting gc2 because of the reset and there are better people in gc2 lobbies then before?

[visual dome]

no i was mid-high gc2 at the begining of this season, i played with 2k mmrs and now i just cant play with ppl that bad

[dusky fiber]

u need to find the rght distance and speed with challanging, try playing casual and dont play like u usually play, try to 1. stay more close to them (this way they will be more nervous and more likely to make mistakes) and 2. try to match there speed so u can easily react to flicks. U will prob get some goals caus of that as it will not be perfect at first, but u will get a feeling for the distance and speed if u try out new things

[cyan sage]

So I will be able to get better at finding the right speed and distance to challenge by staying close to the opponent and matching their speed ?and btw Wdym by playing casual

[dusky fiber]

yh but then your issue is adapting thats what u are saying. gc1s are not 2k players and there is no point forcing your playstyle u played with higher players. a 2k player will prob easily be able to defend 2 gc1 if u leave him alone but a gc1 will prob not be able to do the same. Adapt your playstyle to the situation and your rank. Blaming your mates to be the reason you are stuck will just get u hardstuck

[dusky fiber]

i mean u should try out these things in casual 1s at first before u go into ranked. This way u can try out a bit and find the right speed and distance. Wont do any good going into ranked and trying it as it will not be perfect at first. SO even if u get more goals then before, dont give up. Try out diffrent things and u will see what works for u

[cyan sage]

Thx

Any tips for 2s?

[dusky fiber]

try not to chase and get better with powershots on target.

[dusky fiber]

whats your rank in 2s?

[cyan sage]

Champ 1 also

[dusky fiber]

as i said above beside playing 1s: 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 much, look at yourself and dont blame your mate, dont play too risky ot not leave your mate alone @cyan sage

[cyan sage]

Oh ok

Thanks

[dusky fiber]

np if u have any other questions u can also dm me, good luck on the grind

[cyan sage]

Thanks bro appreciate it

[karmic spire]

Any1 good at passing play?

[dusky fiber]

[silk sluice]

is it good if i got gc 1 div 3 in 62 games if not what should i improve to maximize my wins to lossed

[proven nimbus]

is plat 3 good?

[umbral torrent]

what’s some good camera settings i don’t rlly like mine anymore

[tiny jolt]

anybody can teach me how to double flip reset consistently without touching the floor?

[near grotto]

No lol

[orchid condor]

i thought plat 3 was pretty good for casual players, or am i being dumb

[near grotto]

If ur a casual player then yeah it's okay, most casual players sit in diamond though

[alpine topaz]

Plat makes up most of the player base

Well plat 1 makes most of the player base

So I would say plat 3 is pretty decent

[orchid condor]

huh gc1 last season was top 0.63% (2s) of the player base? what happend lol

[cyan sage]

hey could someone please hop in a vc with me, i need some help with my speed flips and i dont know what im doing wrong

i downloaded the bakkes mod plugin and im using the musty training thing but i just cant get to the ball

[orchid condor]

Can you make a clip? @cyan sage

usually i can spot the issue with just a clip

[chrome hare]

Rayy what rank are u?

[orchid condor]

barely gc why

[cyan sage]

ok let me get a good try and ill send a clip

[chrome hare]

Can you help me get better rayy

[cyan sage]

actually ill send one at super slow speed because i have trouble hitting it even then

[chrome hare]

Im diamond 2 rn and im trying to get better

[orchid condor]

please don't do super slow speed, just show me a failed attempt at regular speed

[cyan sage]

ok

[orchid condor]

I don't do coaching no more, i quit in s5, i just came back this season and ended up at gc1 now

[cyan sage]

also im able to do some other speedflip training packs and hit it, but the musty one i just cant quite do it

[orchid condor]

oh

for the musty one: Wait before you attempt it

[chrome hare]

Rayy can you atleast gimme some tips please

[orchid condor]

the musty one places you relatively high, so when you boost after resetting you will lose time

[cyan sage]

is that really it?

[orchid condor]

let your car land

yeah most likely, because the musty pack is really forgiving in terms of allowing small errors

[cyan sage]

im usually off on either the angle or the flip cancel on the bakkes mod trainer things when i do it here tho i can hit other speedflip training pack shots

I DID IT

[orchid condor]

nice congrats

[cyan sage]

ive been trying for days i did it for the first time at full speed

also i can still hit it even when my flip cancel is too slow

[orchid condor]

yeah, that pack is really forgiving

i've even hit that ball with the back of my car

[cyan sage]

really ok, is there a less forgiving one you recommend?

[orchid condor]

yeah, mine lol, it requires perfect speedflip, but there is really no point in trying to hit it

[cyan sage]

thats wild lol

[orchid condor]

wait why did they remove that

[cyan sage]

a link ig idk why gif your game was removed tho

[orchid condor]

you want the pack?

[cyan sage]

yes please

[orchid condor]

lemme start up the game real quick

[cyan sage]

okok ty

ive been trying a lot harder to get better recently, i have damn near 3k hours probably and im stuck plat, ive been playing again after like a year long break these past couple months

[orchid condor]

@cyan sage FFDF-47FA-E3FA-0D1C This is just musty pack but with more distance

Here is my attempt of today, i was trying to see if i could still hit it: https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/24aLyD0SyFdaGv/d1337GUuSpq4?invite=cr-MSxZdHgsMjIzNTQ2NDYzLA

[cyan sage]

dang ok that looks cool

ill try to hit the musty one a few more times then ill start doing thst one to perfect it

[orchid condor]

i think i can with 100% confidence say you will not hit mine

[cyan sage]

probably not lol

actually ill try it rn and see if i can get lucky

[orchid condor]

go ahead 😄

[cyan sage]

loool ill tell you if it does go well, thanks for the help

i do think my controller is a little slow too since its an offbrand ps4 controller but im looking to get a ds5 controller soon

[orchid condor]

you mean input delay? You hit the musty one so you're fine tbh

[elfin grove]

is here any trade server

[orchid condor]

they deleted trading @elfin grove

[elfin grove]

a okay

[supple remnant]

How do you get out of plat

[cyan prawn]

booming the ball

hook shots

[orchid condor]

tell your thumb "no" as soon as it want to press the boost button lol

basically, chill out, stop wasting boost and overcomitting

[cyan sage]

whats that mean exactly

[orchid condor]

driving into the ball at an angle

[cyan prawn]

so dribble the ball towards the right side, give a little space between you and the ball and boom it to the left (works both sides)

[cyan sage]

i was actually pretty proud of my self for my rotating in 3s yesterday, ive been trying seeing squishy talk about "last man back" and ive been looking for situations for that and i think in recognizing them pretty well

ofc i dont always hit the ball when i need to tho

also ive discovered that my right thumb being a little smaller than it should be might be making it a lot harder for me to press square lol

[sharp spoke]

My left thumb us dumb

And pinky, how can I fix that

[cyan sage]

i dont use my pinky lol

[sharp spoke]

Whaaaaa

[cyan sage]

also i do my speedflips to the right, should i be learning left too or is it not needed once i learn one way

[sharp spoke]

U good

Damn pinky being dumb. Always clicking the Xbox logo

[cyan sage]

how are you

i need a picture

how does your pinky go there

[sharp spoke]

Hmmm I lay my controller on the table and grasp it with a hand

Like a keyboard but controller

[cyan sage]

i need to see this i cant visualize it

[sharp spoke]

Hmmm not home but I will

Ima chop this pinky first

[cinder summit]

brooo unluckiest comp day today, just worst mental teammates everytime

[cyan sage]

mfs will go afk mid game then be like "why am i stuck in plat"

[cinder summit]

was playing 3v3 and both my teammates left mid game in comp because the guy missed the ball and we were down 1

[cyan sage]

no literally idk why people get so mad at the smallest mistake

i was playing 3s and some guy got an unlucky ass hit off his car into his own goal and his teamate left

[cinder summit]

you would think it would be better in the higher ranks but its the same i thinbk

[sharp spoke]

That was me

[cyan sage]

what was

[cinder summit]

its ok i got a great game 6-1

[sharp spoke]

The guy that owns goaled

[cinder summit]

so i feel better

[cyan sage]

[nova nymph]

Tw fennec tw zombas black zombas a handful of bm other stuff to

[cyan sage]

what

[unkempt egret]

can sm1 help learn to air dribble 😭

[nova nymph]

That’s what I have to trade

[cyan sage]

cant trade

[nova nymph]

Why not

[cyan sage]

the removed trading

[edgy ledge]

bro trades have been removed from the game

[cyan prawn]

how to get gc in 1s

[edgy ledge]

keep composure... and try to stay sane

[cyan prawn]

like real tips

im already insane

[edgy ledge]

fair

lets see

play it slow really. nothing fancy just plain old flicks, boost starve, aerial bumps that kind of stuff. no wall aerials, ceiling shots or risky overcommits, just try and keep the ball close

[cyan prawn]

i mean I’ve been doing that since diamond

but it’s different now

and i get gc3s every game

[edgy ledge]

I cant really give you much im like just on the edge jumping between c3 and gc1 its really instinctual tbh. Just hours

[sick oyster]

How do i create more time to setup mech shots because i keep getting dived before i try

[dull flare]

anyone is eu

[dull flare]

learn to air dribble from ur half

otherwise ull have to improvise setups u cant really set them up

[sick oyster]

I can full field airdribble but im talking about closer

I shouldve been more specific

[dull flare]

.

can u setup off of a wall bounce

[sick oyster]

Does that happen at every rank ?

[sick oyster]

Kinda sorta

[wraith ruin]

yeah why

[dull flare]

was just wondering

[wraith ruin]

2s or 1s

[dull flare]

then id really know just go for setups only when its already being set up yk

[sick oyster]

Both

[sick oyster]

Alr

[dull flare]

in 1s u shouldnt have any problem getting any setups

[wraith ruin]

in 2s take a touch around the first man

[sick oyster]

I mean some players are all over u aggressive

[wraith ruin]

if they keep overcommitting it shouldnt be too hard

[dull flare]

then just score over them normally?

[sick oyster]

Im trying to do more mech shots

[dull flare]

cuz in 1s if u have distance and they still try and commit

[dull flare]

when u have possession they will most likely back up a bit

just go for setup and if they commit

cut them
