[carmine arch]

i just reset the pin

it still says the pin isnt right

this is why i asked for specifically ps5 fr

[pure plume]

[daring wave]

yo

can anyone coach me for a bit?

[pure plume]

[jovial turret]

[cinder frigate]

yo i got a replay check dms cant remember how to send them tho

[ivory wren]

ye

[ivory wren]

if u want u can send me a replay

[inner egret]

Can someone coach me or something I’m diamond 1 and I think I’m better than my rank

[rugged heron]

any gc's wanna give some tips to a c2

[oblique hamlet]

I’m plat 2 and I’m wondering what mechanic I should work on

[ivory wren]

lol?

[inner egret]

what’s wrong?

[ivory wren]

play 1s consistently

[ivory wren]

i read any rank instead of my rank

[inner egret]

I don’t understand what ur saying

[ivory wren]

nah, why u think ur better?

[vocal shore]

Anyone able to coach me a little for ground/air dribbles?

[dry ibex]

in the looking for group tab, how do i actually join someone? am i supposed to dm them or somtething?

[ivory wren]

u can dm some1 or join their vc if they are in one

[cyan sage]

hai

[oblique hamlet]

Yo wsg

[ivory wren]

hi art

[dry ibex]

ok thanks i also noticed they need to add usc as a region option in the looking for group command. just saying if a group admin sees

[inner egret]

Bc I do better stuff I think

[stiff relic]

Im gold 2 what mechanic is most important to start?

[oblique hamlet]

Powershots

[ivory wren]

mmm u can send me a replay if u want but seems a lil strange ngl

[dry ibex]

being able to fast aerial will be useful when you hit plat.

[rugged heron]

you down for a friendly 1v1

[vocal shore]

Work on hitting the ball first 💀 most the plats I Play with miss 90% of their shots

[inner egret]

What rank r you

[ivory wren]

GC3

[dry ibex]

😂

[inner egret]

U got any alts that are champ?

[dry ibex]

you mean work on patience. play ones main for a week. lol you learn to hit the ball that way

[inner egret]

Is it normal for a person in diamond to redirect easily?

[inner egret]

@ivory wren ^

[vocal shore]

I am patient tbh, it's when the ball is barley moving and they miss it going Mach 5

[ivory wren]

dont think so

[inner egret]

K

[dry ibex]

😢

[ivory wren]

not in 2s at least

[whole shadow]

Powershots/powerslide powershots for a quick scoring way in gold 2, defense aint the best and powerslide for a faster landing recovery and keep 90% of ur speed from a fall when done right.

[hidden bane]

Need (tips) 1 for Gc tournament. Anyone got advice😭

[rugged heron]

any gc be down for a 1v1 to see where im at

[vocal shore]

Tbh I learned wave dash and wall to ground wave dash when I hit gold, was a doing more advanced mechs for the rank?

[cyan sage]

meh

it's not horribly advanced

[whole shadow]

no its not very advanced for ur rank bc some golds for some reason learn the double flip reset but cant rotate or do backpost leaving there team and thereselves vulnerable and + those actually help you recover which is good for golds

so good job

[vocal shore]

Double flip reset?????

AT GOLD????

[whole shadow]

yep ive seen clips on tiktok of golds doing it.

[pure plume]

smurfs

[sturdy trout]

Anyway how to get out of champ 1

I was in champ 2 but I kept losing my games idk if it’s me or my teamates

[pure plume]

are you lacking more on the mechanical side or the game sense side

[sturdy trout]

I wouldn’t really say any

[pure plume]

everyone lacks both

[sturdy trout]

Just inconsistent sometimes

[pure plume]

both can always be improved

[sturdy trout]

I’d say gamesense cause I’m pretty mechy

[pure plume]

can you send me a couple replays? I could check them out

[sturdy trout]

I’ll check if I have any

[pure plume]

but yeah consistency is a big thing for climbing any rank

[cyan sage]

what's up brother ☝️

[pure plume]

not much just chilling in free play since no one is on 🥲

hbu

[torn tusk]

how can i improve my mechanical side cause my game sense is like insane but my mech side is pretty bad

[pure plume]

what rank are you?

[torn tusk]

champ

[pure plume]

any specific mechanic you feel you're lacking in? also free play and custom training are both really good options to train mechs

mechanics improve by just repeating them over and over building that muscle memory

[torn tusk]

mostly my plays in the air but on ground im pretty good

[pure plume]

yeah practicing wall setups in free play is a good way to practice them

ceiling setups aren't as useful but they're also good to get down well

[torn tusk]

alr thanks

[pure plume]

no worries

[quiet gulch]

Im a freestyler that has gotten my air dribble down but idk what to do next, keep practicing resets, or do something else, what should i do?

[pure plume]

what I did was practice resets and double resets afterwards after getting my air dribbles down

ceiling shots are also good to learn

after getting those down you can start practicing ceiling musties

[quiet gulch]

What ab douboes

[pure plume]

double taps?

yeah go for it

[noble moat]

I can’t seem to find a single video that can help me. Does anyone know the right way/most efficient way to do ground to air dribbles either from a bounce or from a ground dribble without using double jump??

[pure plume]

why no double jump?

from a bounce you can just jump once into an air dribble

and same from a dribble, though double jumping is more comfortable imo

[ivory wren]

touching grass

[pure plume]

can't help with that sry 😔

idek what that is

[onyx glen]

I need help on how to get a double reset. I can get the first flip reset but then I just struggle getting the second. I have been told to diagonal flip cancel after getting the first reset but it’s not working out

[pure plume]

can you send some clips of your attempts or hop into a priv game?

[onyx glen]

Sure but I just got off so I won’t be able to do it right now. When I come on I will send a dm

[pure plume]

alr

[crimson siren]

i need yall help, im a d1 kbm player, and imma switch to controller, what should i do first?

[pure plume]

just playing around in free play and doing custom training helps

[crimson siren]

and about my rank? do i play and go down or wait untill next season

[pure plume]

up to you but if you know you'll stick with controller you absolutely should do comp

after you get a bit used to it

[opal widget]

How do i get better decals

For my fennec

[crimson siren]

alr alr, ty bro

[old temple]

I REALLY need help. i hjave been champ for like 10 seasons and its getting to the point wheir i fell to diamand 3 i seriously dont know how to rank up and NEED help.

[errant barn]

You got a replay?

[old temple]

me?

[errant barn]

Yes

[old temple]

maybe

from a wile ago

[errant barn]

Recent one would be better

[old temple]

i dont have one should i play a game

[errant barn]

Yeah and then send the replay

[old temple]

how i do that

[errant barn]

Are you on pc or console

[old temple]

pc

[quiet gulch]

When i go for a reset i never get one even when the ball hits the middle of my car, i even dont get a reset when it hits it hard

[errant barn]

you can just save the replay after the game by hitting L3 assuming you’re on controller and then going into ur demos folder and dragging the replay and sending it on discord in dms

[old temple]

ok

[undone shadow]

looking for someone to coach me and give me tips for a couple games im currently d1 looking for someone that is c3+

[old temple]

it wont save 😦

and i lost

i am d3 div 3 yesterday i was one game from c

c2

[errant barn]

it should save there should be a thing in the bottom left saying save replay with which button it’s on

[errant barn]

Do you have a replay

[undone shadow]

uhm i can get one

one sec

im getting a random one not one that im peaking in btw

[errant barn]

Yeah that’s fine

[old temple]

i did it and it said error exporting replay or sum like that

[dim coyote]

blobfish are you a mechanical player

or a more simple one

[old temple]

mechy

[dim coyote]

dam

[old temple]

why

[dim coyote]

Im more on the simple side I need to work on my mechanics that’s what I feel is holding me back from progressing in champ

[errant barn]

There’s ssls and gcs who use little to no mechs btw

[old temple]

so u want help?

[dim coyote]

I was gonna give you the same tip if you said you were more on the simple

[old temple]

oh

[dim coyote]

yea but they have those simple mechanics mastered down to the millimeter

[errant barn]

It’s probably ur game sense and consistency that’s holding you back

[dim coyote]

yea

[old temple]

me or eva

[errant barn]

both

[old temple]

dang

i have adhd i think

i cant have good game sense

its weird i cant think properly or over thunk

[old temple]

can you coach me?

can anyone?

[rose flare]

anyonr can coach me or smth

[old temple]

what rank r u

[old temple]

^^^^^^^^

[muted crane]

Is it possible in 2’s?

[cyan sage]

Can anyone teach me how to air dribble and speedflip ?

[old temple]

nvm

[errant barn]

Yes they have the fundamentals solidified

[old temple]

can yopu coach me

[muted crane]

What fundamentals ?

want to know what to do @errant barn

[errant barn]

I’d need a replay to know what ur doing wrong though

[errant barn]

Shooting, powerslide, aerials etc the simple stuff but they can do it very well if you watch flakes series on YouTube you’ll see he does a simple mechanic in a very solid way

[muted crane]

Appreciate it, If your able to I have a very recent 2v2 replay that I did in comp and wanted to ask what I did wrong.

[errant barn]

Gc1

[errant barn]

Yeah sure idm send it in dms

[versed narwhal]

is there anyway i can find a coach for free? im d3-c1 and am hardstuck. i feel like i got descent mechanics just terrible positioning and game sense

[cyan sage]

Can somebody give me some game sense tips for 3v3?

[orchid condor]

dont waste upgrades, or however they are called

[prisma oak]

anyone tryna hop in a priv match or look at a couple clips and tell me what i’m doing wrong w my breezi flick

[cyan sage]

yeah fs! shoot me a dm

[pure plume]

can I join? I'm kinda bored rn

[prisma oak]

dmd

[pure plume]

dmd?

[cyan sage]

i'm not doin a pm

i'm not at my dorm

[pure plume]

ahh I see

[fleet cairn]

What is the best to get out of plat 3

[cyan sage]

focus on consistency

[fleet cairn]

I already am consistent

[cyan sage]

if you were consistent

you would not be plat

[fleet cairn]

One game away from d1

[cyan sage]

they're kind of mutually exclusive

[fleet cairn]

Plat 3 div 4

[cyan sage]

work on consistency, focus on speeding up your gameplay, and shooting with more power and accuracy

helps to learn flicks if you haven't already, same with fast aerials, and wavedash recoveries

[fleet cairn]

What rank are you

[fleet cairn]

Alr

[pale path]

how to murie reset?

[cyan sage]

Bro idk what to do i went from c1 to d2 and cant get back up

i play just as well as then but i cant go up

If not better tbh

[pure plume]

half or full murie?

[pale path]

what's the difference😅

[pure plume]

hold on

but half murie is just a backflip reset

while full you do the spin around

[elfin sentinel]

feels like the skill ceiling shifted lmao i stopped playing for a week and i went from c3 d3 to c2

[flint bear]

Can anyone tell me how to deal with smurfs

I run into them so much 😦

[pure plume]

#gameplay-highlights

[sturdy trout]

I deal with a lot of smurfs and washed gcs too best way is to just be aggressive but defensive at the same time don’t let them take control of the ball always keep pressure on them

And try ur best to not let them get in the air

[flint bear]

Tysm 😊

[sturdy trout]

No problem what rank are you

[flint bear]

Plat 2

Why?

[pale path]

which is easier

[sturdy trout]

Js curious tbh

[pure plume]

half is easier

full you have to be further away from the ball so it's just generally harder

[pale path]

ig half then

[sturdy trout]

Anybody know how to speedflip like the pros

[pure plume]

you consistent with regular flip resets?

[pale path]

pretty much

[pure plume]

alr

[inland wigeon]

can someone coach me i’m stuck in plat

[pure plume]

muries are fairly easy compared to other resets, all you gotta do is get the reset with your nose forwards and your car flat, pull your joystick up so your nose is past the 90° line so when you backflip you go forwards towards the ball

and also cancel the backflip to land clean

[crude sleet]

Anyone down to 1v1 ( I am a plat to low diamond ) - looking to 1v1 anyone regardless of rank ... Just wanting to learn / practice. let me know if you are down

[pure plume]

and if the ball bounces far from you from the reset you can boost while doing the flip to catch up to it

[pale path]

alright thanks

[pure plume]

or if it bounces a bit to the side or you don't land cleanly flat on the reset, you can use air roll to flatten before doing the murie

like you want to be straight towards the ball to get a clean reset

[radiant pond]

How do I get out of gold 3?😢

[pure plume]

consistent and strong ball hits

[cyan sage]

watch tutorials for the basics, practice that, implement it in game

there's really no set way, but there's definitely a better way

[pure plume]

also half flips are good to learn if you haven't already

but yeah what art said 😅

[radiant pond]

K thx guys!

[pure plume]

good luck!

[inner egret]

How to get out of diamond

[sturdy trout]

Dribbling and air control

And gamesense focus on defence to just play the game tbh and trust ur teamates more often

Consistency is key to get out of diamond

Try not to do anything fancy either just basic aerials,flicks,dribbles, defence and also work on power shots that’s really all u need

Try become consistent at that and you’ll get out very quick

I got out of diamond by doing that

[cyan sage]

i think it's also important to make sure you're not sacrificing anything to make that happen tho

it's more about going into games with the intent of identifying and then fixing your mistakes, rather than winning

if you make it more about winning than improving, you'll get hardstuck later on

[undone shadow]

looking for someone to coach me and give me tips for a couple games im currently d1 looking for someone that is c3+

[sour cobalt]

dude the bot [squall] is the best ai

he block shots with just one jump
he fr better then my teammate

[undone shadow]

looking for someone to coach me and give me tips for a couple games im currently d1 looking for someone that is c3+

[inner egret]

What rank r you

[sturdy trout]

Couldn’t have said it better 💪

[sturdy trout]

I was demoted from c2 to c1 but I’m c2 div 2 rn

[inner egret]

Dm

[undone shadow]

anyone want to play or coach me im d1 i need someone a higher rank for a couple games

or just vc?

[hot vine]

i got queued with rev_xy and fwazd4x in 3s as my teammates 4 times in a row, and they threw everytime, scoring own goals and bumping me on purpose. i reported them each match so why did i get queued with them repeatedly? this is such a weird system

[sturdy trout]

If u got queued with them it’s probably because there’s less people on than usual but to prevent that from happening just play in free play for a few minutes then que up again

[hot vine]

my opponents had duos in their 3s as well but they kept giving me the throwers. u right tho. shouldve waited or stopped playin after the 2nd time lol

[sturdy trout]

People just do that cause their salty

[hot vine]

when they a duo they have fun and solidarity in throwing. soloqueueing 3s sucks

[pure plume]

you eu?

[hot vine]

ye

i always play at 3am though 😭

[pure plume]

yeah there are waaay less people playing rn since it's late night

[sturdy trout]

Real I don’t play threes

I’m like d1 in threes

[hot vine]

im champ 3 so even less players :(

[pure plume]

last time I solo q'd 3s at 3-6 am I won every game since everyone (the 18 total ppl playing haha) was salty at each other so it was super easy to take advantage of that

it was so fun fr

[hot vine]

average rocket league players cant even manage to play a full match without tilting and tryna ff smh

[pure plume]

fr

people take the game wayy too seriously

[hot vine]

wish i had irl friends who played rocket league

[sturdy trout]

Sad to say sometimes in that player 😭

[pure plume]

same, all of mine play every now and then and they're only gold

I used to be that player

then I stopped caring about comp

and started maining free play 😎

[hot vine]

i had two who were gc2 and gc3 freestyler but i cut em off lmao. just me chilling in champ now

[pure plume]

average rocket league freestylers cant manage their fury when they're cut off once

it's so ridiculous honestly

like 95% of freestylers are so narsissistic

[hot vine]

they were in nixus, if thats even a thing now

[pure plume]

oh you meant as cut them off from your friends

[sturdy trout]

My freestyling skills are op(I can airdribble and ceiling shot nothing else)

[hot vine]

yes haha

[pure plume]

yeah nixus is still a thing, my online friend actually plays for them

[hot vine]

they hated how i played too, stressful and annoying lmao

[pure plume]

yeah I don't get it

[hot vine]

wonder if its the same person 😂

[pure plume]

like I freestyle but I don't get angry when I'm cut off on the wall or if someone doesn't play like I expect them to when going for freestyles that's just stupid

[pure plume]

J-ron?

[hot vine]

nope!

[pure plume]

ah good, since he's actually a good dude

[hot vine]

jron is a funny name

[pure plume]

haha

[sturdy trout]

Concierge has beef with me

It keeps giving me warnings

[pure plume]

fr it has beef with everyone

[sturdy trout]

Type sheet

I even had to correct my spelling cause it warned me

[pure plume]

yeah no s word here 😤

[long terrace]

Does anyone have any tips on how to easily save the ball ?

Or do a flip reset?

[cyan sage]

Why as someone who’s been playing for 5 months am I playing people who have been playing for much longer in 1’s and 2’s?

[pure plume]

playtime doesn't equal rank

[cyan sage]

frustrating tbh because they’re just more consistent just playing a champ in 2’s in plat 2 in 1’s and im only diamond in 2’s

[long terrace]

Rn im gold 1

In the rank

[pure plume]

as a gold you really shouldn't worry about flip resets

[cyan sage]

🤣☠️

flip resetting in gold is wild

[sturdy trout]

The rocket league system is weird right now I’ve been getting placed with ssls and gc tourney winners in c2

[long terrace]

Ya but I want to get better then gold

[cyan sage]

it’s hella frustrating im glad im not any higher

[pure plume]

flip resets aren't the way

[sturdy trout]

Keep getting my sheet rocked in ranked

[long terrace]

What should I worry about as a gold rank?

[cyan sage]

I just wish play time somehow balanced into rank

[sturdy trout]

I told a girl I could double flip reset in her and she blocked me 😥

[cyan sage]

learn to speedflip and you can carry your team to plat easily

[pure plume]

if you want a specific mechanic to learn then learn half flips

[cyan sage]

lmfaoooo

[pure plume]

lmaooo tell the next one you could quad reset in her

[sturdy trout]

Accurate plays and hitting the ball into the goal

[sturdy trout]

Don’t worry I have a few musty flicks lined up

[pure plume]

yep as a gold honestly just focus on consistent hits on the ball

[pure plume]

😳

[cyan sage]

nah golds lowkey are built different nowadays im telling u speedflipping on kickoffs will carry you

[long terrace]

What are half flips and speed flips?

[sturdy trout]

Fr

[cyan sage]

I could speedflip at gold 3

[sturdy trout]

Im always wondering how pros speedflip so good

[timid charm]

any tips to get out of champ? my game sense is good but my mechs are mid

[pure plume]

speed flips you shouldn't worry about yet, but look up a tutorial on half flips. They're a really good way to turn around quickly

[long terrace]

Well obviously

[sturdy trout]

They have their car in an angle where it the car nearly hits the floor

[sturdy trout]

That’s the best way tbh

[long terrace]

Ok thanks

[long terrace]

Ya true

[cyan sage]

I suck at 3’s

[sturdy trout]

Just work on air control and dribbling that’s what I’m doing rn

[cyan sage]

rotatings so weird

[pure plume]

I bet #looking-for-group doesn't suck at 3s

[humble shale]

i already did that

[long terrace]

I can't even do a kuxir pinch or a musty flick yet

[sturdy trout]

Not really just wait ur turn type sheet

[sturdy trout]

Ur gold bruh focus on hitting the ball properly

[timid charm]

just in free play? or do u have a good custom map?

[pure plume]

free play goated

[sturdy trout]

In free play

[humble shale]

guys

[sturdy trout]

So real

[timid charm]

alr thanks

[sturdy trout]

What rank are you

[humble shale]

i won my first tournament ever today

[pure plume]

like 80% of my playtime is in free play 🥰

[humble shale]

a 2v2 tourney

[sturdy trout]

Congrats I lose all of mine

[timid charm]

c2 div 1

[long terrace]

Ya I sometimes over shoot the car and miss the ball

[sturdy trout]

Region?

[timid charm]

use

[cyan sage]

I do a lot of lethamyrs dribblings maps

[sturdy trout]

Same I just play music and hit the ball it’s so fun

[cyan sage]

Helped me with flicks too lowkey

[sturdy trout]

Frick y’all workshop warriors I don’t have a pc to do that 😢

[long terrace]

Should I do that as a gold rank?

[pure plume]

as a gold you should learn how to quad reverse jakze

[cyan sage]

bro pc rocketleague different fr

[pure plume]

that got me to plat fr fr

[cyan sage]

so much easier

[sturdy trout]

For a gold rank u should focus on hitting shots into the net

[humble shale]

i need help getting to plat

[timid charm]

as a gold i would fucas on game sense and learning rotaions. once u get to high plat or diamond start doing that

[long terrace]

I play on Playstation

[sturdy trout]

That’s why ur gold

[timid charm]

focus*

[humble shale]

every time i win a game i stay in gold 3 div 2

[cyan sage]

the bakkasmod plugins are goated for training

[humble shale]

i dont move

[sturdy trout]

Throw that sheet in the bin lil bro

[cyan sage]

in what?

[long terrace]

Cause its hard on ps?

[humble shale]

3v3

[sturdy trout]

Nah I just find the Xbox controller more comfortable ps players are trash compared to xbox

[humble shale]

every time i do 2v2 my tm8 sell me

[cyan sage]

bro what

[sturdy trout]

Xbox are just more aggressive and harder to play against

[cyan sage]

ayoo

[pure plume]

huh

[cyan sage]

suspect #1

[sturdy trout]

I don’t even know what a Jakze is

[pure plume]

😔

[long terrace]

Ya I just got beat so hard by someone who plays on Xbox

[cyan sage]

dawg i am à girl😭

art as a coach whats the biggest thing you see diamonds struggling with?

[long terrace]

Me neither

[cyan sage]

not being complete idiots

no but fr

[sturdy trout]

Yeah there are some incrediby good players on Xbox

[cyan sage]

⚰️

[long terrace]

Whats the difference between Xbox and Playstation?

[cyan sage]

consistency, gameplay speed, quality of controlled touches, and boost pathing

boost pathing

the paths of pennies that you take as you rotate throughout the play

never heard of that like following boostpad trails on the way back?

[sturdy trout]

Nothing really it’s just whenever I come against an xbox player their really good just my experience with them

[cyan sage]

Ohh yeah that makes sense

[pure plume]

play

[cyan sage]

play

[sturdy trout]

😂😂

[long terrace]

Get the ball in the goal

[sturdy trout]

Snaxa the best advice giver frr

[pure plume]

I mean if you just started there's really nothing we can tell you

😎

[cyan sage]

bros right lmao

i guess idk

[vivid hull]

Play a lot of freeplay

[cyan sage]

familiarise yourself with the controls, find binds and camera settings that you're comfortable with, and play the game lol

that's about it

[long terrace]

What abt changing the keybinds on the ps controller?

[sturdy trout]

Just pratice hitting the ball into the net

Rotation and defence

[pure plume]

hit ball, win

[long terrace]

How are you in plat when you started?

[vivid hull]

Ball, win

[sturdy trout]

Also prepare ur mental health cause once u start u can’t go back

[pure plume]

BALL

[vivid hull]

Lol

[long terrace]

Went through a rabbit hole

[cyan sage]

you start out at 600mmr which is mid gold three btw

[sturdy trout]

God damn go touch some grass

[long terrace]

I don't think I did

[cyan sage]

uou do

everyone starts at 600 mmr in all playlists

[sturdy trout]

Bros hitting the penjami

[long terrace]

What is 600mmr?

[cyan sage]

gold three

like gold 3 div 2

ish

[long terrace]

Why am I gold 1 then?

[cyan sage]

because you lost games

[sturdy trout]

Really when started like start of lockdown I was in bronze

[cyan sage]

you start at 600 mmr in all playlists

[sturdy trout]

Won a bronze tournament aswell 💪💪

[cyan sage]

if you're lower after your placements, it's only because you lost games

[sturdy trout]

Back in like season 1

[sturdy trout]

Damn i must’ve lost a lot of games

[long terrace]

How do I rank up
Just play games?

[cyan sage]

yes

[long terrace]

Ok

[sturdy trout]

If u don’t want to practice yes cause even if u lose your getting better every time u play

[long terrace]

Tru

[long terrace]

Maybe I'll practice those type of flips u guys told me

[sturdy trout]

Yes watch a video

[long terrace]

Ok

[sturdy trout]

Half flips and speed flips im in champ and I don’t have them properly perfected

You’ll get the hang of it after awhile

[long terrace]

I hope

[radiant temple]

can someone help me with learning speed flips

[errant hemlock]

play claw

i learned them at gold that way

[cyan sage]

Or have a controller with paddles

[long terrace]

Just watch a video

[pure plume]

speed flips are basically a cancelled diagonal flip

the reason it's called the speed flip is because the cancel makes it so the nose of your car is pointing frontside for the entire duration of the flip so you can keep boosting as you flip

so you get the speed boost from the flip + boost at the same time

[cyan sage]

Can somebody help me in ranked 3v3 and give me tips? I am constantly losing.

[long terrace]

Do you guys recommend any specific keybinds for ps4 controller?

[pure plume]

what are your current binds?

normal?

[long terrace]

No

X is left airoll
O is right airoll
Normal driving buttons
R1 is jump
L1 is boost
Square is drift
And I think that is all I changed

[pure plume]

never heard of anyone using those controls haha

[long terrace]

Oh

[pure plume]

but I can't really see anything wrong with them tbh keep using them if you're comfortable with them

[cyan sage]

Can anybody, please? I am starting to question my 3v3 rank compared to my other ones.

[pure plume]

what's your rank

[long terrace]

I just switched to them so I am still getting use to those keybinds

[proud iron]

Is it just me or does anyone find it hard to play against bad player because they're so unpredictable

[cyan sage]

1v1: Platinum 3 - Diamond 1. (I go in between constantly)
2v2: Platinum 1 , division 2.
3v3: Gold 2, division 2.

[pure plume]

alright, I mean they are fine, but if they turn out uncomfortable for you, you can just look up some pro's and their keybinds (BUT DO NOT USE RIZZO'S)

[long terrace]

Nope that has happened to me SOOOOO many times

[proud iron]

It's so annoying I'm gold 2 and they always do mad stuff 😭

[long terrace]

Is Rizz's bad keybinds?

[pure plume]

I mean at those ranks all you can do is play more 3s to learn how to play it properly, every game mode requires a different playstyle

[long terrace]

Ya like honestly

[cyan sage]

That really does not help me whatsoever.

[pure plume]

he has his driving on his left joystick so if he wants to accelerate he pushes his stick forward haha

[cyan sage]

Is anybody willing to play a 3v3 game with me and give me game sense tips?

[long terrace]

Wth that is bad

[long terrace]

Would tomorrow work?

[cyan sage]

No, sorry. I will be busy.

[pure plume]

well can't really say too much else, there's no magical piece of advice I can give you without knowing how you play and I don't have the time to check your playstyle out rn

[long terrace]

Ok well if you want to then just message me like in a dm maybe

[proud iron]

I actually need an EU coach all my friends started after me and they're diamond and now they won't play with me

[cyan sage]

bro has the halo binds LMAO

[long terrace]

I don't know what an EU coach is

[cyan sage]

coach from europe

[long terrace]

Like bro what?

[long terrace]

Oh

Are EU coaches the best at the game?

[errant hemlock]

no?

how old are you 😭

[long terrace]

15

[errant hemlock]

are you sure

[long terrace]

Ya

[errant hemlock]

why did you ask that question then its literally common sense 💀

[robust bloom]

What ranks do you coach?

[long terrace]

Because I know nothing about the people who play.
I only know how to play the game

[dusty niche]

hey can any1 help me with a quick coaching sesh i need someone to tell me what im doing wrong in airdribbles

[long terrace]

What are you doing for airdribbles?

[dusty niche]

wym

[long terrace]

Why are they wrong?

[dusty niche]

bad setup and adjustment ig

i always end up above the ball

[pure plume]

get your setup consistent first

also aim for the bottom half of the ball

[long terrace]

Is the form not good ?
Is the ball not going in?

[dusty niche]

yeah

[long terrace]

Ah ok

[dusty niche]

u wanna hop in a private match so i can show?

i can vc

[long terrace]

Can we do it tomorrow morning?

[dusty niche]

prolly will be busy

[long terrace]

I might not be able to help anyways cause I don't even know how to airdribble

[dusty niche]

ok

[long terrace]

Sorry abt that

[slow dock]

yo

[long terrace]

Yo

[slow dock]

Can I join tom too?

I also need help with Air Dribbles

[long terrace]

Like join a game?

[slow dock]

Practicw match

[long terrace]

I have no experience with airdribbles

[slow dock]

.

[long terrace]

?

[slow dock]

@dusty niche

[dusty niche]

yeah

i cant go on tmr

[slow dock]

dang

nvm

[long terrace]

I am still learning how to do that stuff in the game

Ima start with half flips and speed flips

[echo sundial]

What bind should I use for boost in controller

[pure plume]

R1 is a popular choice

personally my boost bind is circle

or B

[inner egret]

Tips on how to leave diamond (easy way)

[echo sundial]

K, mines R1 already I was just checking if that was weird or not

[pure plume]

nah that's fine

[pure plume]

there's no easy way this is like your 10th time asking

makes me think if you even listen to the advice given to you

[inner egret]

Ik man Im stuck in this rank atm

[cyan sage]

have you tried applying the tips we've given you

it's been like

2 days since i first saw you

[pure plume]

like a week for me 😩

[inner egret]

Ok I might give an update

[rapid geyser]

any tips my highesdt rank was champ like a year ago but i have dropped and im slow in the air but idk how to get faster

[fast bluff]

If you're stuck somewhere, it means you probably need to practice more. Practice takes time and commitment. It won't show in the first couple days, maybe even first week, but the more you practice the easier your games should feel

[fast bluff]

Have you practiced fast aerials? There are countless tutorials online. They're fairly easy to practice as well

[rapid geyser]

no i havent

i would practice slot but idk what to practice or how to practice the right way or where to even start

[cyan sage]

just look up tutorials tbh

[fast bluff]

Bruv, ya kinda just gotta start haha. How about you start by going into free play and getting up to the ceiling as fast as possible

[rapid geyser]

should i start playing claw ????

[cyan sage]

no

[fast bluff]

No lol. Just get into freeplay and just go up a bunch of times until you feel like you're going faster. Jump, tilt back, jump again, tilt back any more you need, boost the whole time

Go into training packs once you have the motion down

[rapid geyser]

i dont even know how to wave dash speedflip or anything im horrible

[cyan sage]

go into real games once you have the motion down ***

[rapid geyser]

ok

[fast bluff]

Well, you can sit here and tell me you're horrible, or just go and learn them

[fast bluff]

Why do you recommend real games over training packs?

[rapid geyser]

true thanks for the help

ill go watch some yt turorials aswell

[cyan sage]

because you'll use it in real games, therefore it's just better overall to practise in real games

[fast bluff]

np, don't be so caught up, just get in there and do stuff. Don't be so scared of doing it wrong

[cyan sage]

training packs don't have a lot of variance

nor do they have the variables that you'll encounter in real games

[rapid geyser]

do u suggest playing 1s more i never play them

[cyan sage]

1s is only good if your mental is good

if you get mad at ones easily, it's not worth playing it to improve at the game

[fast bluff]

1s won't help your aerials, but it will help just about everything else (besides team work)

[rapid geyser]

ye i get mad easily so i wont be playing 1s

thanks for the help its 5am and im up playing rocket leauge grinding thats the mentality i need

[cyan sage]

lmfao a good state of health is a good state for the game

[fast bluff]

I understand what you're saying, and I agree to a point, but training packs are there to test yourself. Even if you won't see that exact shot, having scored it or practiced scoring it will help with other, easier shots

[cyan sage]

don't underestimate how well you would play if you took care of urself LOL

[fast bluff]

Not about 1s, my b

[cyan sage]

nah ik what u mean

[pure plume]

bad advice smh every time I shower I get worse at freestyling 😤

[fast bluff]

I love training packs haha. I sit in them for hours

[rapid geyser]

im wataching a tutorial and hes saying press a and b at the same time and hold airel and everything this is to much for me already

[cyan sage]

training packs are good if you don't understand the core mechanics of something

but if you understand the core mechanics of something, you might as well go ahead and do it in game

[fast bluff]

I think they are good for HONING core mechanics, as well as learning

[cyan sage]

no point in honing core mechs in an environment that isn't similar to the one you'll actually be performing them in. especially if you'd get the same, if not better result from doing it in game anyways

[fast bluff]

Are you anti free play as well/

[cyan sage]

the only upside to training packs is that you can do it as many times as you'd like, on your own time. that being said, i don't think it really matters as much because you don't get the variance and other variables

[cyan sage]

in my opinion, the best places to practice are

1. in game
2. freeplay
3. training packs

in that order

the exception being shooting, in which i'd recommend one and only one workshop map lmao

[fast bluff]

I think they're all valid but I'd go with

1. FP
2. training packs
3. in game

[cyan sage]

crazy take 😭

[rapid geyser]

i think we should end this arguement

[cyan sage]

in-game is overall the best place to practice, you just get the most experience out of it tbh

[pure plume]

as a free play main I'd say if you want to get better at a mechanic in game you should practice it in game

[cyan sage]

tbh it's not an argument

[pure plume]

like I can do all sort of crazy stuff in free play but in game I need a lot of space to set it up like I do it in free play so can't really do it the same way in game. For in game mechanics you have to learn the in game variables to be able to confidently pull them off

[fast bluff]

You absolutely still need to practice in game, but I think if you are practicing something specific, training packs can be extremely valuable.

[cyan sage]

that doesn't mean they're the best option overall though

[fast bluff]

I agree, you need all 3 tbh

[cyan sage]

the only pro of training packs is the aspect of repetition

but even then

that repetition is both a pro and a con

[fast bluff]

Practice is ALL repetition

Get that muscle memory down

[pure plume]

bakkes has an option for training pack variety

[cyan sage]

but getting better in this game at mechanics isn't all about practice

because you have to know how to apply it in game

and what to do if you mess it up

[pure plume]

but you still repeat the basic shot so it prob isn't that useful

[cyan sage]

which is something you DONT get in training packs

[fast bluff]

Also just make your own. I have been making my own packs for 4 years, and nobody else seems to

[pure plume]

I've never used training packs for mechs since learning to flip reset

[fast bluff]

I make very tailored training packs. I made one yesterday to really perfect fast aerials. I put the ball at the perfect distance so I fail if I don't fast aeiral, and I can ALREADY see MASSIVE improvement

[pure plume]

that was 5 years ago

[cyan sage]

see but again, this is just a core mechanic thing

[fast bluff]

Correct

[cyan sage]

it's not about applying it in game or anything like that

[fast bluff]

I am a RL fundamentalist haha

It is, I can see improvement going up and beating people to balls in the air

[cyan sage]

no point in learning how to do mechs if you don't know how to use them in game

[fast bluff]

Because I hammered away at my aerial training pack

[pure plume]

low blow 😔

[cyan sage]

valid one tho

at least from a comp standpoint

[pure plume]

yeah comp standpoint absolutely

[fast bluff]

I do though. I think you are misunderstanding. You need both. You absolutely need to practice in game. I completely agree that it's useless if you don't know how to pull it off in game, but you have to start somewhere. And not everyone already has the core mechs down yet. This guy SPECIFICALLY said he can't fast aeiral or wavedash. Bro is struggling and needs to practice alone for a bit

[cyan sage]

i will say tho, it's not really a good example, considering that fast aerials are generally just the best option in any situation where you're trying to beat people to the ball lmao

[neat merlin]

art can you please coach me

im hard stuck plat

[cyan sage]

there is no real "when to use this" aspect of fast aerials

compared to flip resets, air dribbles, flicks, or anything like that

[fast bluff]

So I'm using training packs to hone a skill that is vital to the game? Yea?

[cyan sage]

the entire basis of this conversation is what to do AFTER you learn the core idea behind how to execute mechanics

if you have the core idea of the mechanics down, what's the point in going into training packs lmao

[fast bluff]

I think going to training packs is extremely valuable, especially finding the right one. There are good training packs that aren't just 5 shots long. I use 2 40+ shot packs a day

Consistency is the point. It's all about consistency

[cyan sage]

but that's-

if you have the core idea of the mechanic down

[fast bluff]

Consistently landing that shot top right, getting the power you need, perfecting your take off. Consistency

[cyan sage]

then that means you're already consistent lmao

[fast bluff]

You don't get it over night, man. It takes time

[cyan sage]

i'm not saying that

but you're saying that once you get the core idea down

you should be going into training packs

[fast bluff]

I'm far from consistent. But even pros use training packs to up their consistency

[neat merlin]

CAN ANYONE COACH ME PLEASE\

[cyan sage]

I think I am finally about to quit teammodes for good. I just asked a champ(in 3s) im gold in 3v3 to help me in 1v1, and I destroyed them in 1v1. I am going to lose my mind.

[fast bluff]

1s mains are crazy

Do it

[cyan sage]

I HATE TEAMMODES WITH A PASSION!

[reef solar]

any free coaches?

nvm

[cyan sage]

consistency is important yes, no one is denying that, but having consistency is a training pack isn't necessarily the same thing as having consistency in a real game

[reef solar]

bro dont trust

[cyan sage]

Is there anybody here that is diamond+ in 1v1 can help me out here please? I am struggling.

[reef solar]

lol

[neat merlin]

laze can yoou coach me

[fast bluff]

You need to practice in game as well, why can't we have both?

[neat merlin]

im hardstuc plat

[reef solar]

you laze can you couch me

im hard stuck plat

[cyan sage]

I can try and coach but I suck at implementing anything. What gamemode? What rank?

[reef solar]

me to and fuze???

[neat merlin]

plat and 2s or 1s

please dude\

[cyan sage]

Idk why I am being asked about coaching. My ranks are so stupid you wouldnt believe me.

[neat merlin]

please laze

[cyan sage]

i just personally don't see the point in using training packs to gain consistency, if you're simply going to gain the actual applicable kind of consistency in game

[neat merlin]

im stuck in plat

[reef solar]

same

[cyan sage]

... What do you expect me to teach you...

[reef solar]

ofc 🤫

[cyan sage]

you might as well use freeplay to breakdown the core ideas, put it all together, and then get the experience in real games

[neat merlin]

better game sence
OUR A CHAMP please

[cyan sage]

BRO I AM NOT A CHAMP. Well I wish I was. But I can beat champs in a 1v1. THAT IS NOT THE SAME THING!

[fast bluff]

well you also need to remember, the people I'm recommending packs to are diamond and below. Their games look... rough haha. Trust. Who knows if they'll even get a chance, or SEE a chance, in a regular game

[cyan sage]

i'm not saying offline practice is useless, i just don't see a point in training packs in specific

[neat merlin]

ooh what rank are ou laze????

[frigid sage]

Do you guys have any good tips to get out of gold I am hard suck

[reef solar]

sure

i can help

dm me

[cyan sage]

1v1: Diamond 1.
2v2: Plat 1.
3v3: Gold 2.

Now ask me again, you sure you want me to coach you?

[fast bluff]

You guys all just need to play more lol. You don't need coaches, you need practice and experience

[neat merlin]

yes master please

[cyan sage]

some people just don't function like that though lmao

[cyan sage]

Nah, I suck at teammodes. That is that. I am going to stick to 1v1.

[fast bluff]

Like I said, 1s mains are crazy, do it

[cyan sage]

some people need the 3rd party help to improve efficiently at the game

[cyan sage]

Do what?

[fast bluff]

stick to 1v1

[reef solar]

bruh

[cyan sage]

I already have more than double the games of zen so far so this season. I guess, why not.

[fast bluff]

Zen has majors to train for, bro doesn't have time to play ranked 1s

[cyan sage]

I have almost 700 1v1 games this season.

[fast bluff]

Keep grinding

[cyan sage]

No.

[fast bluff]

OK

[cyan sage]

Teach me.

@fast bluff what rank are you btw

[fast bluff]

Honestly, my rank is trash. Let's just sya champ

[cyan sage]

wdym lets just say😭

[fast bluff]

I'm bad at the game lol

[cyan sage]

dawg i'm asking what ur peak rank is LOL

[cyan sage]

Can you coach me please?

[fast bluff]

Right... it's complicated

Laze what's your epic

[cyan sage]

wdym it's complicated 😭

[cyan sage]

Why?

[long mantle]

what is the bot i have to unblock in lfg

[steel spade]

Yo, I’m a keyboard and mouse player struggling to get into using directional air roll. What is the best way to start learning on my directional airroll? I’m champ 2 in 2s and c3 in 3s

[long mantle]

i got a million blocked messages there

[cyan sage]

@night harness

[fast bluff]

Ok so my peak is c2d4 but it was during a season that you could get champ super easy, and since then I've improved so much that I wouldn't say it's my peak, and also I was playing with my c3 friend in 2s and the games felt super duper nice. So let's just say champ, but technically stuck in the d3d4 loop

[cyan sage]

mane all you had to do was say c2d4😭

[long mantle]

how did u get that far without it... im kbm too and i cant get outta mf d2 in 2s no matter what i do (solo)

[fast bluff]

But for me it's more complex than that

[cyan sage]

@hasty latch this one's all you

damn kbm players

[fast bluff]

You want help in 1s? I love 1s

[steel spade]

I’ve got really good game sense and I have insane hours on freeplay

for only playing 8-10 months i feel 1200 hours is excessive

but it works

[cyan sage]

meh that's not horrible

[long mantle]

idk, i just got used to using E and Q in combination with the other keys, cant say i got any tips for it as i just figured it out by spamming training maps :D

[steel spade]

yeah i don’t use e and q i literally use just shift

[long mantle]

💀 i got like 600h in 2-3 years

[cyan sage]

i just wanted to know the rank😭i didn't really need to know all the caveats behind it

[steel spade]

damn

[long mantle]

it fks u up in aerials as some things you cant do with shift as naturally (imo)

[fast bluff]

Well I also think rank is a flawed way of looking at myself. My b

[cyan sage]

ur j chillin

[steel spade]

i aerial surprisely very well for not using directional aerial

[long mantle]

i started on xbox with a controller and hated it, fyi

[cyan sage]

i feel the same way tho

[steel spade]

i can still hit clean air dribbles and ground to air plays

[long mantle]

u fly like a brick tho, dont u :D

[steel spade]

no

i spin still

[cyan sage]

dar is just the objectively better air roll compared to free air roll

[steel spade]

🙂‍↔️

[long mantle]

XDDD

[steel spade]

i spin for the fun of it

[fast bluff]

You don't really need directional air roll. Just do whatever feel comfortable.

I do prefer directional tho. I actually never even learned free air roll

[long mantle]

i spin to get to the ball in the most efficient and precise manner i possibly can (i AM diamond for a reason(probably))

[cyan sage]

dar is becoming more and more of a staple as mechanics become meta

[hasty latch]

hours

[cyan sage]

atp i would call dar required eventually

[fast bluff]

Possibly. I think it's way easier than free

[long mantle]

i assume dar is direction aerial

[cyan sage]

yes

dar is THE objectively best air roll

[dusty niche]

art how do i learn arieal control

[steel spade]

training

[cyan sage]

watch kevperts tutorial

basic and advanced

he's got two

watch both

[fast bluff]

Kevpert recommends training packs

Kevpert made training packs that I used

[cyan sage]

What are you ranked in 1v1?

kevpert recommends training packs to get consistent !!!!

he does not recommend that you get consistent AND THEN use training packs

[fast bluff]

Bruv I am NOT consistent

[cyan sage]

Can you please coach me in 1v1.

i'm not talking about you

[fast bluff]

All training is to get consistent

[cyan sage]

i mean in general

our entire conversation was about how to practice after you learn the fundamentals

not how to learn the fundamentals 😭

[fast bluff]

But the guy WAS asking about the fundamentals, and you can always gain something by practicing them. Even 20+ year pianists warm up with fundamental exercises

[cyan sage]

What is your rank in 1v1? You said you could help me.

[cyan sage]

okay but you said "after you learn the core principles of the mechanic, you should use training packs"

well that's more of a paraphrase than an actual one

but

[fast bluff]

I stand by that. Paraphrased and all

Not youuggghh

[cyan sage]

was the exact quote

[cyan sage]

Um, I have no idea what you two are having a conversation about. I am just asking what your rank in 1v1 is.

[fast bluff]

Laze I will teach you if you want, my rank is irrelavent, i've been all around.

How about we go see what's up

[fast bluff]

I believe in hammering fundamentals no matter what tbh. I understand the game fundamentally, but i still practice the same drills every day until I perfect them. And it takes a LONG time to perfect them

[cyan sage]

i don't think what you're saying is wrong

but i don't think it's the best way

[hasty latch]

🐒 until you win

[cyan sage]

it's definitely not the most efficient way (without sacrificing anything)

[rapid geyser]

how much is it for a personal coach

[cyan sage]

depends on the coach

[fast bluff]

Well to your credit, people who have 1500 hours in matches and 200 in practice do tend to be better than me, but I'm also thinking long term. Some day my hours in FP and training packs will make for an excellent foundation for a high rank player

[cyan sage]

i am also thinking long term

[muted crane]

In 2’s what’s the best strategy to win

[rapid geyser]

where can i find out how many hours i have

[fast bluff]

Ok how about this. I'll put it to the test. For the past 2-3 weeks I have been hammering away at training packs and practice drills. What mode should I main for the next week or 2?

[cyan sage]

if you end up ranking up off of your great fundamentals because you spent all of your time in training packs, you eventually will run into a point where you don't know what to do in higher ranked games because you don't have the experience

and that's one of two common ways of how people get hardstuck

[cyan sage]

depends on your platform

[rough python]

yall are arguing or just talking?

[rapid geyser]

pc

[rough python]

i've been lurking and im confused

[fast bluff]

I like to think of it as a clashing of ideas

[cyan sage]

aggressive solo play (that doesnt leave your teammate out to dry)

[cyan sage]

go to epic games launcher, library, three dots

[rapid geyser]

ok thanks

[rough python]

i have like 500 hours

tried to learn DAR

failed

[rapid geyser]

i have 600 hours amd my peak is champ thats embarising

[fast bluff]

Gotta keep going. 500 hours is small

[rapid geyser]

embarrising

[cyan sage]

it's pretty simple if u know what to do

it's just hours

anyone here know how to jaxi reset? im gc1 trying to learn

[rough python]

i feel like a monkey tryna do AP chemistry

[cyan sage]

jakze reset?

[cyan sage]

yerr

[cyan sage]

left or right

[cyan sage]

front flip, cancel the front flip with a slight imperfection to the side, then pull your joystick from the bottom to the side, and then air roll to counter the spin

o think

i'll send a tutorial that explains it better than me lmao

[rough python]

left, i know the movements and what does what but putting it together in my head and trying to make the small adjustments and i just end up flailing

[cyan sage]

ive seen the tutorials but i cant put it into practice

low grav, infinite flip freeplay

i can rapid and stall reset but not jakze

[cyan sage]

so you know how to do the turn left and right basics

like bottom right is turn left, top left is turn right

or whatever

it's either that or the opposite idk i just have the muscle memory

[hasty latch]

get that god awful diagram

[cyan sage]

no

[rough python]

yeah i've seen all the tutorials and all the help, spent some hours on it but still nothing really fully makes sense. It's like my brain fogs when i need to actually control myself

[hasty latch]

yes

its amazing

very helpful

[cyan sage]

never

the issue is my flip cancels look nothing like the videos

too complicated

[hasty latch]

its exactly what youre looking for

[cyan sage]

did you watch the maktuf tutorial

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wS-o0Sj_GJ8

[cyan sage]

yeah

he goes over settings that help your cancels look better

the first time i tried i watched that

i cant change my settings now lol ive used these for like 4 years

[hasty latch]

theres one versiopn

ywvm

[cyan sage]

have you tried just air rolling and spinning your joystick all willy nilly 😻

[cyan sage]

i hate this so much

i wish we had message perms

lemme drop a vid of my flip cancels

i would delete it

[hasty latch]

trust

[cyan sage]

if i could

[hasty latch]

i would remake it

very helpful

[rough python]

that's pretty much what im doing 😭

[cyan sage]

i think that learning how to use dar based on your visual car orientation is absolutely HORRID.

[hasty latch]

whoever made that diagram thought otherwise

[cyan sage]

because who actually takes the time to look at their car and determine how it's oriented to determine their inputs lmao

[shrewd matrix]

Not really if u know what ur doing

[rough python]

i hate that literally every single person i've spoken to about DAR just says it'll click. That's so bs bro everything is learnable, everything can be broken down, how will i just magically be able to DAR one day

👹

[floral vapor]

I do!

[cyan sage]

nah deadass it does just click

[hasty latch]

inputs are too fast to be analyzed by your brain

[cyan sage]

for DAR????💀

that's crazy dawg

[hasty latch]

thats why most people have to rely on muscle memory, in other words it "clicks"

[cyan sage]

you don't just have it in muscle memory😭

[rough python]

CAP there's no way it just magically instantly makes sense

[shrewd matrix]

It doesnt click it comes with time doesnt just appear u can make it easier for yourself tho with a plat

[fast bluff]

It isn't instant though. It comes after hours of PRACTICE

[floral vapor]

I def keep my eye out for my car

[cyan sage]

maybe i just subconsciously do it

idk

but i could do it with my eyes close

so i doubt it

[fast bluff]

Honestly 99% of this channel could be answered with "just practice". 99% of this game tbh

[rough python]

im practicing dude, it's been like 2 weeks, i've not even been playing games dude just neon heights rings over and over. I just wanna look cool and spin 😭

[floral vapor]

I could never

[cyan sage]

two weeks is nothing i'm not gonna lie

[shrewd matrix]

Even when looking at the balm ur perioheral vision will be on your car and if ubpracticed enough ur brain can learn to adjust without u actively thinking too mich

[cyan sage]

it probably took me two weeks worth of GAME TIME to get it down

[fast bluff]

I've been practicing flip resest for MONTHS and I still BARELY can get one. Just keep at it

[cyan sage]

that's kinda crazy dawg

do you use training packs for flip resets 😭

[shrewd matrix]

Whats ur plan u just straight up started with rings?

[cyan sage]

cos that's a HUGE nono

[fast bluff]

No I actually use fp

I'm very anti training pack for freestyles

[cyan sage]

lowkey rings are horrible for learning dar

use freeplay

[cyan sage]

mane flip resets ain't no freestyle 😭it's 2024

i don't even think i'd call double or triples freestyles atp

[shrewd matrix]

U should use rings once ur already quite good. In console so after i got decent i trained it in airdribbles and double tabs that also works

[fast bluff]

Yea yea still.

[rough python]

nah i started with flying between the goals, learning how to turn, doing laps of pillars, going onto rings and i've been doing it every day after work for like 4-6 hours doing these damn excersizes i dont want to master the little sht i just want to look cool and spin

[cyan sage]

rings is good for absolutely nothing imo 💀

[cyan sage]

lowkey

[fast bluff]

I wish I could even test rings 😦

[cyan sage]

do it in freeplay

[shrewd matrix]

Ur one of the few that think like that

[long mantle]

how man

[fast bluff]

Nah that's actually a pretty common sentiment nowadays

[shrewd matrix]

So u can already fly frontwards backwards and sideways? And control that for doubletaps and airdribbles?

[cyan sage]

rings are bad

using freeplay is the way to learn dar

[inner egret]

@cyan sage i think everytime I get div 4 rocket league knows and places me against some smurfs or something

[rough python]

wdym like not spinning?

[fast bluff]

FP is the way to learn just about anything tbh

[cyan sage]

mental block, not a smurf thing

[shrewd matrix]

What about the 4 directions with spins? Did u train isolated tornadospins reverse tornado spins and spinning with stick up and down while holding dar?

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah

[cyan sage]

mane you do not need allat to learn dar

[rough python]

fax just had my rank up game to champ and got pounded 8-0 didn't even know it was my rank up, psyonix are in my walls

[cyan sage]

you just need hours, freeplay, and two hands lmao

[shrewd matrix]

Of course u dont need all that its just a way to break it down into steps

Also if u wanna master dar u have to be good at all these eventually anyway

[cyan sage]

kind of

it's more like

if you master dar, you will be good at those anyways

[rough python]

im pretty good at free air roll but i know i need dar if i wanna properly get better which sucks

[cyan sage]

slide me a dm

[mental cove]

I need some training packs to do

[cyan sage]

i'll respond tmrw when i'm back at my dorm

[inner egret]

Exactly bro Had a winning streak up until div 4 it’s probably a “coincidence”

[cyan sage]

freeplay and play the game

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah but u have to be good at those before mastering dar its the other way

[rough python]

damn college/uni is tuff, good luck

[cyan sage]

preesh, finals in 3 weeks

[mental cove]

I want some focused training

[cyan sage]

then focus on what you need to learn in game and in freeplay

[shrewd matrix]

U could mess around and learn them along the way but thats partly might leave u with an unfinished product

[rough python]

i went for engineering, my pain was immeasurable

[cyan sage]

what are you tryna work on

[cyan sage]

ew, where'd you go?

[shrewd matrix]

I learned dar before i learned controlling my car sideways which isnt optimal

[mental cove]

I need to consistently hit the ball

[cyan sage]

freeplay

in game

freeplay

in game

😾
