[rough python]

i'm not american or anything so you won't know most likely but strathclyde lmao

[cyan sage]

yeah never heard of it LMAOOO

[rough python]

lmfao but don't "ew" my life's work

[shrewd matrix]

When do u tend to miss the ball? Like why does it happen have u figured that out?

[cyan sage]

engineering is just so much math i could never

[rough python]

i know it was a horrible decision i don't need you to tell me

[mental cove]

is all you sugest people to do freeplay and in game?

[inner egret]

guys am I the main character

[mental cove]

mainly when its in the air

[cyan sage]

dawg if you're trying to learn how to hit the ball consistently

yes

[rough python]

its pretty much just math but with glitter on it

[cyan sage]

i'm majoring in management 💀

any math is math

[rough python]

okay karen

[shrewd matrix]

U need to get more specific with ur problem if u want more specific tips. U said u wanna hit the ball more whats he supposed to do to help u?

[inner egret]

feel like rl is against me

[rough python]

ong

[inner egret]

Tell me about it

[rough python]

nuh uh

my math is special 😋

[shrewd matrix]

So all aerials or just high ones? Or is it wall bounces or fast moving balls?

[mental cove]

I keep missing the ball when Its in the air

[cyan sage]

play the psyonix aerial pack then then

[inner egret]

what happened

[cyan sage]

unironically a good training pack lmao

[mental cove]

its like all kinda

[mental cove]

ok

[shrewd matrix]

What rank are u?

[inner egret]

Oh i stopped my win streak on div 4 : (

[mental cove]

silver

[rough python]

what rank r u?

[inner egret]

Tuff yea probably keep grinding

[inner egret]

Diamond 1 but trust me I think I’m like champ

[cyan sage]

i do not trust that

[rapid geyser]

how long did it take use to do all these fancy mechanics and stuff

[rough python]

well definitely a diamond form that comment

[shrewd matrix]

Maybe before hard resets

[cyan sage]

i've got 4k hours in the game and i'd say i'm a 6.5/10 on the mechanic scale

[rough python]

i can't say anything lmao you'd prolly curbstomp me

[cyan sage]

as a mechanical player

[rough python]

im too old for this game

[inner egret]

Now now guys I played in a champ lobby before I think won majority of my games

[shrewd matrix]

What rank are u?

[rough python]

these old man fingers cant keep up

[cyan sage]

1400

[rapid geyser]

i have 600 hours and my peak rank is champ is that horrible be honest please

[cyan sage]

well i peaked 1400

[inner egret]

How much games u win?

[cyan sage]

i don't play ranked much anymore

not for rank at least

i just clip hit now

[shrewd matrix]

Thats chill. in 2s?

[inner egret]

I don’t remember lol

[cyan sage]

yea

[rapid geyser]

.

[cyan sage]

idk i can send some clips if you want examples lmao

[inner egret]

Ight cya man hope you get champ

[rough python]

bros schizophrenic

fighting the demons after a loss is a ritual every player of this cursed game has

[inner egret]

@rough python just say it your undercover for rl

U were my opponent that game (jk)

[cyan sage]

https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/1mdPBsn8eq_R7R

https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/1PuVDIhgixucZN

these clips are like months old

[rough python]

wdym, im not? btw have you guys played rocket racing it's really fun!

[cyan sage]

but that's about 4k hours right there

as someone that practices mechs more than not

[inner egret]

Look you got tm8 finishing ur passes

[cyan sage]

these are like 3k hour clips, i jsut don't clip much anymore lmao

[mental cove]

bro epic is trying to push rocket racing tooooo much

[inner egret]

Bruh what’s that

[cyan sage]

this was in a gc2 lobby dawg

[rough python]

witchcraft, get the stake!

[shrewd matrix]

I thought about switching to clip hitting/freestyling before i finally got a new connection

[rapid geyser]

how r u so good and fast jesus

[inner egret]

So if I get gc Ima get good tm8?

[cyan sage]

i literally only play for mechs 💀

[cyan sage]

no

it's just more likely

[rough python]

i've played with gc's. too many gc's. you become the bad tm8

[inner egret]

I think we should be honest here, did you do that last one on purpose?

[rough python]

it's this super fun fortnite gamemode brought to you by the makers of Rocket League, Psyonix, it's a great laugh and fun for the whole family, you should really try it!

[cyan sage]

yes?😭

[shrewd matrix]

After 12 years of trash connection suffering i finally got glass fiber and restarted the grind that i stopped at solo q c3 in 2s and 3s

[inner egret]

I mean sure maybe u aimed for it but did you really think it was gonna work?

[cyan sage]

well kinda, i meant to have more boost left over but

everything else was not chalked

[rough python]

bro got c3 on horrible internet im so cooked

[cyan sage]

yes tf

[inner egret]

Yo @inner egret get a hold of this guy

[cyan sage]

i'm a demon‼️😾 ofc it was gonna work

[inner egret]

What’s wrong

[shrewd matrix]

What do u mean by good? Ur teammates unless havung a very bad day equal u in skill in your rank especially if they often solo q

[rough python]

I KNEW IT, GET THE STAKES

[rough python]

nuh uh

[inner egret]

Cmon Man U gotta be hear to see it

[cyan sage]

idk the application of mechs is literally just about what you can visualise working lmao

https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/VOY6jt0oxvzkX like this

this is some absurdly stupid idea that worked because i tried it lmao

[rough python]

interesting music choice

[inner egret]

Maybe equal in rank but probably not in skill

[cyan sage]

don't sleep on evoke fr

[rough python]

😴

[cyan sage]

that's not how that works

[inner egret]

Did u laugh be honest if you want

[shrewd matrix]

If only we were zen and could imagine shots like a backwards wavedash bounce dribble into a singlejump barrel roll to musty flick

[rough python]

i didn't laugh, im listening to hozier and my volumes up, so i just kind of jumped

[inner egret]

Don’t forget the ppl being carried and the ppl switching from like pc to controller or the other way around u really think all ppl in a rank are equal in skill?

[cyan sage]

yes

[inner egret]

🗿

[rough python]

me fr:

[cyan sage]

the aggregate skill per player in a rank is almost always equal

[hasty latch]

dont forget me being inactive for like a year+

[inner egret]

How do ppl rank up if everyone in the same rank are equal in skill

[inner egret]

Yay @hasty latch is back

[shrewd matrix]

To be fair c3 in season 3-5 wayyy before hard reset and people speed flipping was obviously easier. But since i lagged more often than not with about 120 pingg. And was used to playing with lags on other games before i just thought of strategies to work around lag. The only thing i couldnt do is play 1s cause i could not challenge balls with delay

[cyan sage]

because ranking up and winning games doesn't mean you're better than someone, it means you outplayed them lmao

[silk jolt]

Main things to work on to get out of c2 twos solo que?

[hasty latch]

dont get ur hopes up

[shrewd matrix]

U take new approaches and/or improve

[rough python]

i can tell you sum rn, everyone in my rank is not equal, im in a weird rank, 25% of them can flip reset musty double tap, 25% of them can make decent aerials, 25% of them are decent and the other 25% backflip on every aerial and miss the ball as consistently as they touch it

[inner egret]

I mean if ur equal in skill wouldnt they foresee that?

[cyan sage]

probably the best way: solo play, get mechy, carry

the bad way: play support

[cyan sage]

outplaying doesn't mean you're better, it means you saw an opportunity and you capitalised on it more than the other person

[inner egret]

So what percent is diamond in rocketleague? Anyone know?

[shrewd matrix]

I played support/defensive it works easier in lower ranks as u only need good saving skills and clears

[long mantle]

holy

[cyan sage]

top 40 or some

[inner egret]

So mistakes? Ahhh I see ok

[rough python]

40% ish

[silk jolt]

Diamond had the largest percent player base

For twos

[cyan sage]

i lied it's top 50

[silk jolt]

Prolly not ones though

[inner egret]

Plat and diamond gotta be the worst ranks

[cyan sage]

it's top 55%

[long mantle]

so im cr4p huh

[cyan sage]

it's top 55

[inner egret]

For 2s

[shrewd matrix]

My plat-diamond2 m8s aswell as my first ever m8 when i just started were ballchasers started as goalie in bronze and my plat m8 even fanboyed scrub when he was the best 1s player by ballchasing in 1s

[cyan sage]

you've never been in c2 lobbies then

[long mantle]

as a diamond actively trying to get out of diamond for years = yes

[rough python]

because it's just way too easy to get into, a player with 70 hours can get into d1 most people place p3 on their rank games

[inner egret]

Don’t they play good until someone makes a mistake?

[cyan sage]

lmao

kinda

[inner egret]

Years?!! R u grinding enough every day?

[cyan sage]

except they always make mistakes

so no one plays good

LMAO

[inner egret]

So I belong there?

[cyan sage]

no

u belong in d1

[inner egret]

: (

[cyan sage]

where you're at rn

[shrewd matrix]

C2 gotta be the current epitome of palys leading to nothing. Endless games where ball is mindlessly boomed or palyed without results until someone randomly screws up.

[silk jolt]

lol yeah I’ve carried friends in threes with like no prior experience really less than 50 placed plat 3 then hit diamond

[cyan sage]

c2 actually may be the worst rank EVER

[rapid geyser]

will rings help me with anything

[cyan sage]

not really

kinda

it doeends

depends

[rapid geyser]

i dont get how people acc get good at this game

[cyan sage]

i'd personally recommend freeplay

[quaint sail]

they play alot

[cyan sage]

but

[rapid geyser]

so ahrd to get god

[inner egret]

See bruh it’s a long game until a mistakes happened am I right?

[quaint sail]

and sit in freeplay for like 20 years

[shrewd matrix]

If u go to rings and onyl think about completing it it wont get u very far

[cyan sage]

dude

c2 is like 80% mistakes

[inner egret]

What about

Diamond

[rapid geyser]

is 600 hrs just for champ is that bad?

[long mantle]

like 2-6 games is all i can take before i reach a point i call "i will get banned if i continue" due to the sheer amount of idiocy and ego i see in d1 2s :>

[cyan sage]

i genuinely believe that champ 2 is the worst f ucking rank in the game

[rapid geyser]

no offense taken

[silk jolt]

Watch a stream or two of a pro warming up and use the bakkes mod type things on d pad to launch ball and shizz

[rough python]

an intellectual with prestine grammar i see

[hasty latch]

pristine*

[cyan sage]

like just thinking about c2 gameplay pisses me off

like it actually makes me mad

[shrewd matrix]

The way to get out is either to not make mistakes or train mechs to actually outplay opponents. C2s from what i saw the last few weeks lack in controlled solo play skills. They wills tart solo plays but they just arent good.
Top tips against them
Grind flicks
Grind bounce dribbles
Grind hitting the ball on their backboard at lightspeed and see them miss the read and score a easy double tap from the ground

[long mantle]

gods of ego?

[silk jolt]

C2 largest egos

[inner egret]

POV me:
Wake up: feeling like I might hit champ today
rages (think this how it goes)

[rough python]

i never claimed to be one myself

[hasty latch]

valid

[shrewd matrix]

Nope largest egos are in gc2-3 the demons dwell there

[long mantle]

and for dia? :D

[wild stratus]

can someone coach me

[inner egret]

So when you guys passed champ, is the game worth playing anymore?

[cyan sage]

no they just suck at the game

[shrewd matrix]

I dont know what diamonds play like nowadays as i dont go that low for plqying with lower ranked players

[rough python]

i don't rage i just hit the Aurelius pose

[cyan sage]

it becomes more worth it

[shrewd matrix]

My goal is ssl not gc so im not done yet

[long mantle]

wanna play one and see? u can just play like a bot :D

[silk jolt]

I use an rl tracker through outplayed and I would say 60 to 70% of games are against Smurf’s shows all stats in c2 basically always low gc

[shrewd matrix]

Long way ahead tho with the hard reset and gc2s plqying like past ssls. Even musty sitting in gc2

[inner egret]

how? don’t you guys rage more?

[cyan sage]

no because once you hit like high gc2 the game becomes playable

[inner egret]

What rank r u rn

[shrewd matrix]

The thing is u can take any basic mech when ur below gc and train it focused for some time and u will probably rank up with just that

[cyan sage]

eh

[cyan sage]

that's wild

wildly false

[shrewd matrix]

Gc 1500

[inner egret]

that’s if you can keep up right?

[wild stratus]

can someone coach me

[cyan sage]

well yeah but once you get there, you can keep up

[long mantle]

nah mate, u gotta see the games. at this point i have to smurf in my own rank to win a game

[hasty latch]

yeah the game becomes way easier once you hit gc2

[inner egret]

So is it just me or I don’t keep track of my mmr

[long mantle]

any game i've won i've 90% of the time been like 600-700 points ahead of my teammates

[silk jolt]

👍 ur entitled to your own opinion but I know if you have less than 100 wins you are a Smurf

[quaint sail]

yo anybody got any fixes for tm8s bumping team more then the ball

[hasty latch]

rotate wider

[long mantle]

#delete_teammate

[silk jolt]

And that’s majority of games at c2

[cyan sage]

don't be by your teammate so much

[quaint sail]

thats hard when i'm on the ball and he comes ramming into me

[hasty latch]

what rank

[long mantle]

relatable

[quaint sail]

gold 3

[shrewd matrix]

Im not there but i played with lots of gc2s and higher recently even had one let me try playing in gc2 i think its more of people are just so good now that they can actually think ahead and pull off their thoughts mechanically

[hasty latch]

oh

[pure plume]

oh this channel is booming rn

[long mantle]

diamond! same issue

[hasty latch]

skill issue then

[radiant temple]

whats up brother

[cyan sage]

overwolf rl tracker doesn't show overall wins in comp, it shows seasonal wins lmfao

[inner egret]

Isn’t it annoying when u basically 1v2ing and tm8 feels like a carried gold

[cyan sage]

WHATS UP BROTHER☝️

[quaint sail]

idk how i'm plat 3 almost in 1s but i'm gold 3/plat1 in 2s

[cyan sage]

TUESDAY TUESDAY

[radiant temple]

TUESDAY TUESDAY

[wild stratus]

can someone coach me im gold 2

[cyan sage]

IM SAYIN

LMAO

[rough python]

what if im positioned to challenge the ball and my tm8 sprints cross field and T-bones me at 100mph into the sidewall then spams

Okay.
Okay.
Okay.

[shrewd matrix]

Like when i was champ i knew how to get past the defense but i couldnt do it now im getting way. More outplays but they arent consistent enough yet

[long mantle]

95% of the games it's that

[cyan sage]

jump

[rough python]

you're evil

[cyan sage]

i'm right

[quaint sail]

thx for the advice bro now i'm in the rlcs

[rough python]

nah cause how am i gonna know they sprinted to slam into me when i'm focused on the ball

[inner egret]

What if my tm8 double commits with me and then spams

What a save!
What a save!
What a save!
Please wait 5 seconds

[hasty latch]

turn up volume

you can hear them boost

[silk jolt]

Lmfao you are wrong af

[cyan sage]

or open ur eyes

[hasty latch]

yeah or that

[cyan sage]

i'm not! it only shows seasonal wins

[silk jolt]

It shows my 6000 some wind

Wins

[cyan sage]

on your personal it might

[rough python]

must be playing at max distance if you be seeing the entire field

[cyan sage]

but not the in-game overlay

[shrewd matrix]

I can tell u how to get past that bit its a boring playstyle u might not wanna do. Its just solo q in lower ranks is kinda messed up if u wanna rank up

[cyan sage]

well if you don't see your teammate

[pure plume]

it actually does show total but some profiles are bugged

[cyan sage]

they're probably bumping you

[silk jolt]

Brother 👨‍🦯

[cyan sage]

what's up brother!☝️

[rough python]

why can't you just entertain my delusions and tell me it's their fault 😭

[hasty latch]

i mean it is their fault but you can do better

[rough python]

pressure makes diamond, i like pressure 👿

[hasty latch]

99% of ranking up is realizing that

[cyan sage]

99% of ranking up is playing like a pushover if you ask me

[radiant temple]

IM EVIL MRBEAST

[turbid juniper]

Is it worth switching to controller im kbm rn and does it matter what controller it is

[quaint sail]

chat my gold tm8 just missed a open goal should I send a pipebomb into his mailbox?

[cyan sage]

meh, idk

do ya own thing

[hasty latch]

bruh i just got chat filtered

[rough python]

mods, carpet bomb his house

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah unless u wanna 1v2 or 1v3 u gotta let ur mi do everything he wants and support him in it aswell

[pure plume]

open nets hardest mechanic fr

[turbid juniper]

Kinda used to kbm I js heard others say controller is easier/better

[hasty latch]

idk you can switch if you want

[cyan sage]

you can't say anything but like piss, damn and- that's it

[hasty latch]

yeah it sucks

[cyan sage]

well you can say fucks but you can't say the singular LMAOOO

[hasty latch]

im kbm if youd like to know btw

[shrewd matrix]

Yep its trash

[inner egret]

Bro like most of my tm8s tags are like some normal titles and I feel like rl giving me bots every game

"Dribble King/Queen"
"Demo Master"
"Goal Scorer Extraordinaire"
"Savage Striker"

[hasty latch]

typical rlcord activities

[quaint sail]

mods cut off his internet

[cyan sage]

i've got the best bot title

[inner egret]

What is it 🗿

[shrewd matrix]

[inner egret]

is it the aerials? Buddy ima find you a new one

how to how

[shrewd matrix]

Woh ot?

[cyan sage]

how to chain a mawkzy recovery into a wall dash into a mena flip into a zap dash

[rough python]

okay maybe not

[shrewd matrix]

What is a mena flip?

[inner egret]

woh to

[cyan sage]

wavedash setup off the curve of the wall

[long mantle]

what is that? chinese? ask xi pandjing

[rough python]

just wave dash and front flip 💀

[long mantle]

i've accidentally done that 👍

[cyan sage]

i wonder if it's possible to astomo into a backwards chain dash

[long mantle]

the only mechanics i know are ground dribble to flick and walldash :D

[cyan sage]

wait that's a crazy no flip idea

@severe arch

[shrewd matrix]

U mean when u come of the curvature and jump so u can wavedash?

[cyan sage]

actually no

[rough python]

you can wall dash but not wavedash?

[cyan sage]

wait that's not him

[long mantle]

well that's a given, no?

[rough python]

you'd be surprised

[cyan sage]

where my no flip goats at

[long mantle]

💀 nah no way

[inner egret]

"Aerial Whiffing Flip Reset Musty Flick," here's a breakdown:

1. Start with an aerial jump towards the ball.
2. As you approach the ball, perform a flip reset by touching the ball with all four wheels.
3. After the flip reset, use your air roll to position yourself for the musty flick.
4. Execute the musty flick by tilting your car backward and boosting forward.
5. Time your flick to hit the ball with power and precision.

[rough python]

nothing more embarrasing than over judging your flip time and you can't flip mid air with the ball so you just awkwardly nudge it

[cyan sage]

wait hold on that's a crazy idea

wait i actually might be onto something

an astomo into a backwards walldash no flip double?-

wait a minute

snaxa am i cookin w this one

[inner egret]

take a shower

[long mantle]

touch grass

[rough python]

ong

[pure plume]

wait I just googled it, astomo is just a walldash while "flipping" into the ball on the wall?

[cyan sage]

no an astomo is an evample dash on the wall

[shrewd matrix]

Cant find a mena flip yt only talks about mena players what ever that meand

[pure plume]

evample dash?

all these different dashes make my head dash

[pure plume]

yeah I'm only a no flip buckling 😔

[cyan sage]

uh

who else in this server no flips

i'm not gonna ping like kairyu or something

[shrewd matrix]

Dont do the no flip double tap instead u astrome backwards walldash to the ball pop it off the wall and catch it into a backwards dribble do a 360 spin and then mertzy tornadoflick with a noflip

If u do that im donating 10 bucks

[cyan sage]

me when i spout out random stuff

[pure plume]

fr

[cyan sage]

astrome 💀

[silk jolt]

No flip meaning flip cancel into ball to smack it

[rough python]

what if instead, you just, hit the ball..

[cyan sage]

no flip as in a no flip

like

zero movement

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah i suck at typing on my phone

[shrewd matrix]

Can u do them without a ball?

[cyan sage]

no

[inner egret]

🤫🧏‍♂️ skibidi fanum tax

[pure plume]

nope the ball is the thing that stops the rotation

[silk jolt]

I no flip to get more power on shots

[rough python]

so you just brick into the ball and hit it in?

[cyan sage]

kinda

snax do you have a clip

[shrewd matrix]

So its just frontflip cancel with the balm stopping any movement before it can happen right?

[cyan sage]

i dont clip no flips lmao

[pure plume]

hold on I'll get one

[cyan sage]

thanks

i'm not on rn so

i cant

[rough python]

WHY

[silk jolt]

No flips just look like a stall and don’t move after kind of when you smack the ball and car stays still but crazy power

[inner egret]

Lmk when u have “cringed”

[shrewd matrix]

Can u dribble the ball without using boost?

[muted crane]

yes

[silk jolt]

Any of y’all see that yt video of some guy on console hitting 100 flip resets

[muted crane]

yeah it was me

[rough python]

goodbye pls don't contact me, i will breakdown in a fit of tears

[silk jolt]

I forget who posted it and can’t find video anymore

[inner egret]

Just say u cringed if you want

[rough python]

i will never submit

[cyan sage]

u sure it wasn't nexto lmao

wr for chained resets is 31 or sum

kairyu did it

[shrewd matrix]

Ur problem is thatu arent controlling the ball. See the sparks when u dribble those are very small bounces from the ball. If u try to flio when they are there and got a bad timing the ball will fly away after ur first jump because u basically did a bounce dribble on ur car

[silk jolt]

May have been on striped channel

Swear though in freeplay he hit 100 resets

[inner egret]

I think I need to sleep but I’m not!!! Just say u cringed if you want.

[rough python]

if you put someone in a game with the best nexto bot there is as a new player and made them play for 20 years, do you think they'd become cracked?

[muted crane]

Alright, honestly, I just don’t know what part of the car the ball should be on the hood.

Or the “sweet spot” for flicking it

[rough python]

NEVER

[muted crane]

but very useful

[silk jolt]

Someone’s gotta find that video I can’t find it anywhere maybe he deleted because he was scripting or something not sure

[inner egret]

EVER

[cyan sage]

i found it

but it's not chained resets lmao

[rough python]

GET OUT OF MY HEAD

[cyan sage]

they're unchained

[shrewd matrix]

That depends on the flick the improtant part for consistent flicks is getting rid of those sparks tho u do that by matching the speed of the ball before u wanna flick

[silk jolt]

Yeah cause he Musty ball back into air

[inner egret]

IM SO SKIBIDI, YOUR SO FANUM TAX

[rough python]

I HATE YOU

[cyan sage]

yeah that's what i'm saying

[silk jolt]

Was it most ever resets consecutive though

[muted crane]

Yeah im trying it and it’s helping thanks

[cyan sage]

that's not consecutive though

because he mustys in between lmao

[inner egret]

Just say I cringe if you want and I think it’ll be over

[rough python]

THE VOICES WONT TEMPT ME

[cyan sage]

consecutive means without any sort of interruption

[pure plume]

I saw a vid with 40 but they didn't score it

[cyan sage]

oh yeah oops i'm thinking of the 40 wr

it was kairyu

[inner egret]

u know what

[silk jolt]

Following continuously

Is the def

[pure plume]

did he score it?

oh

[rough python]

what...

[cyan sage]

no it was wr chained unscored

chaining 40 resets and scoring might be impossible icl

[pure plume]

yeah

[inner egret]

CHICKEN BUTT

[cyan sage]

but it's not continuous if he mustys between the resets lmao

[rough python]

EWWWW

[pure plume]

this one is 2 years ago by impxlse though

[cyan sage]

that's kairyu

[ivory wren]

not really

[inner egret]

WHY WONT U CRINGE

[rough python]

THAT WASNT FUNNY THAT WAS JUST HURTFUL

[cyan sage]

impxlse rebranded to kairyu a while back

i havé dude added on disc

[pure plume]

ahhh

[inner egret]

…

Not even a chuckle?

Or an eye role?

[pure plume]

and he uses breakout 🥰

I think I might have a crush...

[rough python]

why not, i mean they would have more hours than all the pros combined and all the time of 20 years to learn mechanics

[cyan sage]

i think saiph had wr before that

[silk jolt]

We are speaking technicality’s I would say it’s continuous because ball never touched ground

[cyan sage]

at like 30 something

[rough python]

i mean a look of fear but that was it

[cyan sage]

that's literally not what continuous means

[ivory wren]

u refer to the bot or the player

[pure plume]

mm no

[rough python]

player

[cyan sage]

continuous: "forming an unbroken whole; without interruption"

they're not continuous resets because he mustys in between them lmao

[inner egret]

Did u cringe in fear?

[pure plume]

yeah I still remember when ganer had the wr with 8

[knotty current]

Im hard stuck c3 help

[cyan sage]

was ganer no stall tho

[rough python]

NO I DIDNT CRINGE, I NEVER CRINGE

[silk jolt]

The interruption being the ball touching ground ceiling or wall?

[cyan sage]

cos ik frontal had a nona reset scored with no stall

[pure plume]

idr

[cyan sage]

you're saying they're continuous resets

continuous resets = chained resets

[pure plume]

I'm pretty sure it was stalled

it was like 5-6 years ago though

[cyan sage]

and it's not chained if it isn't uninterrupted

[pure plume]

maybe longer

[cyan sage]

snaxa back me up here

[inner egret]

My friend I’m here to lend and ear!

Fear can make us cringe, that’s true!

see!

[pure plume]

I think he has a crush on you, trying to constantly out you on something

[inner egret]

Say the words

[shrewd matrix]

20 years? Yeah of course. If u paid a hardcore gamer to grind freeplay for 8 hours every day for 20 years u would get the most mechy player even if u dont tell him how anything works. He might not learn all mechs but he is sure to master the basics better than any current player along the way with average talent. So 20 years of 1v1s are probably gonna create even more of a monster

[inner egret]

[cyan sage]

i got a clip i can send

[shrewd matrix]

U know i think u already know 2 ways to get out of c3 with training but u wanna have it easy and not grind freeplay or 1s

[cyan sage]

then send it

[knotty current]

Nah im alright i can rotate and that im good mechanically aswell but i do get some horrid tm8s i try play off there touches and they miss most the time

[cyan sage]

ok in where

#gameplay-highlights

ok

[rough python]

if you know how to do it, and how it works, all it takes is practice to get it consistant

[inner egret]

No this isn’t a cringe part but just a K.O and to let you know to never mess with the 🦇

[knotty current]

I grinded freeplay for 2 years straight brother

[rough python]

PLEASE LEAVE ME ALONE THE VOICES

[shrewd matrix]

Oh no he has got the i dont rank up becasue of my teammates syndrome

[cyan sage]

but like im not doing it right

[pure plume]

that's fr contageous

[knotty current]

No no im not blaming it all on my tm8s nah

[ivory wren]

well ig u mean that the 20 years are only for that player, I believe that if he’s isolated from every other rl resource and the only way for him to learn is to play and learn from nexto he’d be probably really consistent at really basic stuff. So he would be a really tood 1s player but not a 2s or 3s ine since he hasn’t played smth like that

[rough python]

80/hrs a week? thats a hobby, soft hands brother

[inner egret]

Alr everyone farewell, but before I leave why isn’t this chat active like this in the morning?

[shrewd matrix]

Well ur c3 so either ur gamesense is lacking or ur mechs arent as good as u think after that freeplay grind

[cyan sage]

80 hours a week is crazy 😭💀

[pure plume]

it is the morning

[inner egret]

Ohhh what region

[knotty current]

Its gamesense i have gc3 mates they tell me that all the time

[pure plume]

[knotty current]

I just dont know how to fix that why im asking

[silk jolt]

2:46 am

[inner egret]

1:46 am

[cyan sage]

i posted it

[shrewd matrix]

U know flakes and cbell?

[ivory wren]

well depends, for me its in the morning

[knotty current]

Cbell not flakes

[rough python]

the nexto would have pretty much most mechanics that are actually useful so i guess the way he'd learn would be to copy the bot then maybe some other stuff from like experimenting, i mean he does have 20 years, no one says the games are 5 mins

Oh ok so how long you gonna be on for

[inner egret]

Yea but it’s basically midnight right?

[rough python]

i have work in an hour 😭

[shrewd matrix]

Aight cbell got a video called if u have never been gc now is the time thats 1 u should watch. As for flakes he has made a road to ssl without mechanics 2 years ago watch that for champ and gc ranks and focus only on his 50s and defense.
U said u grinded freeplay so i trust u know how to attack with control so u need to work on ur decision making when in defense with a random. Learn what it means not to commit from flakes videos see how he acts with fakes and shadowing on defense

[ivory wren]

prolly idk anyway there are better bots than nexto rn tho

[ivory wren]

idk tbf

[knotty current]

Thank u brother👏🏻

[inner egret]

cope, manage, handle, deal with, tackle, endure, overcome, navigate, confront, face, withstand. If you want

[cyan sage]

don't watch flakes

@knotty current

bad

no

no flakes

bad

[shrewd matrix]

Also i recommend warming up with the normal freeplay movement and ball booming drill and then praxticing shooting in training packs really focus on how u hit the ball and where u hit it/need to hit it to place it where u want u might aswell train that till u get ssl in 1s

[knotty current]

Ssl in 1s yh not a chance maybe gc1 at best

[shrewd matrix]

Its not bad i told him to only focus on what it means to not commit and how to 50 the ball. Im not saying he should try copying flakes playstyle

[knotty current]

Never seen flakes play

[cyan sage]

go watch virges video on rotations for when to challenge

go watch fire burners 50 tutorial

[shrewd matrix]

Well shooting always needs training we all suck at it even the gc2s and gc3s could improve a lot on that

[cyan sage]

i actually refuse to promote flakes

[umbral crag]

flakes is how shade got ssl 1s

[knotty current]

Yh yh i know just tryna grind 1s rn

[cyan sage]

isn't shade c2 in 1s rn

💀

[umbral crag]

he lied lol

he's usually sitting around gc3

[cyan sage]

also isn't shade actually mechanical

and not like a

no finger player

[umbral crag]

not until he met me lol

he would fake everything off wall and go down and play like flakes

[cyan sage]

welp i still hate flakes ngl 💀

[shrewd matrix]

Why? He was one of the best 1s players and is still a super high level ssl player. His approach might not be the best for pro play but its valid still

[cyan sage]

it's not the way he plays

i'm not calling him bad

he's scary good at the game

i just have a personal vendetta against flakes because i actually believe that he single-handedly ruined the ranked system 💀

[shrewd matrix]

How his reach aint even that big

[cyan sage]

nah ur crazy if you believe that

[umbral crag]

?

[cyan sage]

you can't tell me that all of the zero mechanic "gamesense" players have severely decreased the quality of the game

[shrewd matrix]

U know what percentage of players actually consume rl content and then how many lf those go beyond just squishy musty sunless mertzy and the like to smaller youtubers? How is he gonna rach enough players to ruin the ranked system

[cyan sage]

like ACTUAL 0 mechanic players

not the ones that have mechs like flakes does

like the literal 0 mechs ones

[umbral crag]

no one genuinely plays like that

[cyan sage]

come see my old c1 lobbies 😻

[shrewd matrix]

Its not flakes who creates them he probably just is one of them who succeded

[umbral crag]

I do when I watch friends play

[cyan sage]

old

[umbral crag]

recent

[cyan sage]

like season 3-5

[umbral crag]

no this szn

I still coach ppl nat

[shrewd matrix]

U take a played never let him consume content and never watch or learn air dribbles of tutorials or guidance and u get a flakes type player

[cyan sage]

szn 3-5 is when he really blew up 😭

it was like two years ago when he made that

zen era has made everyone chase after mechanics more now

[shrewd matrix]

My classmate on keyboard never watched yt videos and he played all ground game cause he didnt know where to start with the aerial stuff

[cyan sage]

but back in 2021-22 when flakes rtsslnm blew up, it was actually horrid

that way of ranking up works

like letting everyone make mistakes and play off of them

but it's horrible for long term efficiency

[umbral crag]

how though?

[cyan sage]

also red did you get that email from metafy

[shrewd matrix]

It wasnt 0 mechanic it was just grounded and basic instead of flashy

[cyan sage]

apparently like 30 people got some email cos i got accepted on

[umbral crag]

like see gentlemates and how they played recently

[cyan sage]

yeah but people took it as LITERAL zero mechs

[umbral crag]

n

[shrewd matrix]

Doesnt make sense as he even said u need to practice every episode. Practice shooting powerslide cuts bounce dribbles etc.

[cyan sage]

that doesn't mean people actually did it lmao

[shrewd matrix]

And u keep practicing by just playing like him

U cant follow his playstyle without practicing as trying to play like him is already practice for those mechs

[cyan sage]

flakes genuinely impacted the way people play the game, he greatly contributed to the no-mech era lmao

thank god for my king zen!!!!

bringing back the mechy era!!!!!

save me zen

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah but he didnt singlehandedly control that

[cyan sage]

save me zen!!!

[pure plume]

fr zany mechs the best fr frfr fr

[cyan sage]

he definitely started it

[umbral crag]

I would rather have a player that's consistent at fundamentals vs being braindead mechy on my team

[ivory wren]

actually there is a quite good video about 1s offense

[pure plume]

I wanna see reverse jakzes in every game 😍

[ivory wren]

i think i cant send it here

[cyan sage]

obviously, but like i said before, i'm not talking about people that are consistent at fundamentals

[shrewd matrix]

In the first place grounded play with passing and no flashy solo playes was pushed by dignitas and further pro play aswell after the demo era came along

[cyan sage]

im talking about the people that genuinely had no mechanics, and they only had gamesense

[umbral crag]

then you shouldn't be in the same rank as them?

if you have just as good gamesense + your mechs

[cyan sage]

like @pastel vortex is great, dudes got crazy fundamentals and good gamesense

[shrewd matrix]

Thats not possible... U cant move without mechanics to move ur car is to use mechanics

[ivory wren]

what plats think they are:

[cyan sage]

ok don't stretch my words 💀obviously people can drive their cars lmao

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah but he pushed people to use flicks and dribbles and ignore flahsy aerial mechs

[cyan sage]

there's more than one way to rank up, and some are more efficient in the long run

[shrewd matrix]

Thats mechanics

[cyan sage]

you can be at the same rank as someone and be at two different levels of gameplay

it's just where you're at in the curve that differs

[umbral crag]

if you q enough games no

[cyan sage]

they might be reaching the end of their curve (temporarily), and you might be in the dead middle of yours

[shrewd matrix]

I dont think ur words about no mechs make any sense it doesnt work like that

[cyan sage]

it does work like that, you can have the bare minimum of mechanics and have immaculate gamesense and rank up, but you will inevitably end up at a point in the curve where you need more mechs and not more gamesense

[shrewd matrix]

Mechs and gamesense are both equally important one doesnt work without the other

That would mean u have to ve really solid at what u have thats not a bad thing

In the first place it never made any sense to train all kinds of mechs before u even get to high diamond champ

[cyan sage]

not necessarily, at least not in 2s or 3s

[shrewd matrix]

If people focused on the basics at the start unwlukdnt struggle with inconsistent champs todsy

[cyan sage]

but that's what i'm saying, people took flakes videos, and interpreted them as a shortcut to rank up, rather than a strong foundation

[umbral crag]

u on rn?

[cyan sage]

i'm at home

not at dorm

:(

otherwise i'd be aslep

[shrewd matrix]

Especially there. Even all the gamesense in the world wont help u if u cant accurately touch the balk like u want to. And even the best chasing mechy diamond is gonna be rund down by a out kf sync m8 and coordinated 2/3 man team

[cyan sage]

as long as your teams aggregate skill level isn't far below the other teams, you can make it work. you can have a non mechanical player and a crazy mechanical player and it works out

why is the bear playing love story

wtf is this

[shrewd matrix]

Exactly how many people u know focused on gamesense? Everyone was all about mechanics. So if anything that wave would have brought more balance not chaos

[cyan sage]

a lot of people 😭💀

the majority of people i know actually focus on gamesense

well the people that actually play ranked

i'm not counting all of the fs people i know

[shrewd matrix]

Both bring u to the top u got someone like flakes who was all nonmechs and gamesense and accepted mechs later on and someone like dark who in ssl stole his mis ball to go for crazy plays and plays more tame now

[cyan sage]

but flakes isn't no mechs and gamesense 😭 he's crazy mechs and crazy gamesense

his mechs are actually mad scary

i would be more scared playing bro than someone like fk

[shrewd matrix]

Most people still choose mechs for improvement. How many train freeplay and how many go over replays or watch gameplay analisis videos?

[cyan sage]

a lot of people?-

like

literally a lot of people

but i've been saying this forever, flakes indirectly messed with the ranked system and the way people play the game, but he is by no means a bad player or a bad coach. he is a crazy good coach and an even scarier player. it's not his fault, it just happened to be the result of his rtsslnm videos

you can go back and look at any of my messages that have "flakes" in them

[shrewd matrix]

Well i never heard kr saw any of that before today

[umbral crag]

idk if this is true. the amount of ppl you see training/vod reviewing is probably skewed especially when they are ppl coming to you for coaching or interacting in rl communities outside of the game

[cyan sage]

it's me complaining about his videos and then saying how scared i'd be to play dude LMAOOO

[cyan sage]

i also see a lot of people come in here asking for help on mechs

[shrewd matrix]

Last time i met a player like flakes was before he even did his series that was a c3 before free to play.

[umbral crag]

and often times for the wrong reasons (ignoring ppl who are just fsing or whatever)

[cyan sage]

yeah ignoring the fs and

allat

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah like golds asking how to train dar when they miss half of balls rolling on the ground

[cyan sage]

out of all the people that come here for mechanical help, ignoring the fs and other people that don't have a valid reason, i'd say like

50 percent of it is people who are looking to fancy up their gameplay for the hell of it, and 50 is people actually asking for help

and then the other 50 is always just gamesense related

i genuinely think it's split 50/50 between people who come in here and ask for gamesense vs mechs

valid mechs

i should say

[umbral crag]

like think about how many ppl come in asking for help with resets when they can't place shots with power from almost anywhere or even know how to do air roll shots

[ivory wren]

not how to breezi from the wall

[cyan sage]

that's what i'm saying tho, im counting those people in the "idrk why im asking for help on mechs" typa beat

[shrewd matrix]

I wonder if anyone actually ever asked for advice on how to use mechs to control the ball and outplay opponents and how to train that in here if they only ask for advice on the basics of the mech. Well maybe they did but got dissapointed when learning that the best was to train outplaying is 1s....

[cyan sage]

people literally do this lmao

just maybe not in that exact wording

but people do come in here asking for help on dribble control and flicks and stuff

like actual flicks

not slingshot flicks and allat

[shrewd matrix]

Only saw requests for how to do flicks not how to use them

[cyan sage]

learning how to use flicks comes after you learn how to actually do them lmao

[silk jolt]

Art why did you say I should get banned our convo was friendly banter at most about tracker through overwolf

[ivory wren]

i only see hardstuck golds lf help

[cyan sage]

bro is really stressing over a joke i said 2 hours ago😭💀

[shrewd matrix]

Even the guy earlier will need to understand that being able to do a flick in freeplay and in a game has one major difference thats a big issue

[cyan sage]

mane i'm just tryna watch my show and get the motivation to go eat dinner

[cyan sage]

the uh

tamago guy?

[shrewd matrix]

Krux or something i think

Told hin to get rid of the sparks

[cyan sage]

oh yeah that guy

but in order to learn how to use flicks, you should probably know how to do them first

[shrewd matrix]

But now that i think about it not sure if he understands that his goal is not to flick when there is no sparks but rather learn to have no sparks at any point so he can consistently flick not when he feels comfortable but rather when the opponents position kr challenge makes him need to flick

[cyan sage]

most people eventually learn when and how to do them over time anyways

[silk jolt]

Yeah I was just tryna see what the dealio was I know you are much better lol 😂 but I will post a clip of me starting a game with stats enabled just to show you my perspective it may be a setting thing

[shrewd matrix]

Yeah im sure he will be fine

Of i can understand stuff like that on my own most people can im sure of that

[cyan sage]

idk it might be, i used it a hella long time ago too

but i was also lowkey being petty because you definitely don't run into smurfs like 60% of your games

like that's just not true 💀😭

[cyan sage]

the entire like

laid out structure of how the game works

[silk jolt]

Yeah to be honest it’s prolly like 30%

[cyan sage]

i doubt it's even that high

[silk jolt]

That’s still quite a lot though

[cyan sage]

it's 15% max, if it was any higher, the rank system would be insanely busted

more than it is now

[shrewd matrix]

I think they think they run into smurfs 60 percent of the time cause they improved their rank recently and now get people who still didnt get back up after the hard reset so they look at their peak and see they were higher 5 seasons ago even tho they are equal in skil

[cyan sage]

not even 15, i honestly guarantee you it's so much lower

5% maybe

plus you're not in a bubble rank are you?

[shrewd matrix]

Like many champs saying they face gcs in their games and me telling them yeah those were gcs but arent up to gc standard now

[cyan sage]

didn't you say you were like diamond 1-2 or something

the chances of smurfs being that high in a non-bubble rank is so low lmao

[silk jolt]

Nah trust I don’t feel like it’s that low and nah I’m c2

[shrewd matrix]

Some youtuber tested it to be 16 percent of newly created accs where playtime and rank dont match tho even then they only win barely more than 50 percent of their games

[cyan sage]

still not a bubble rank

also my main is in c2 rn lmao

and i find a smurf maybe once every 30 games

if that

[shrewd matrix]

Whats a bubble rank?

[cyan sage]

30% is 3 smurfs in every 10 games

[cyan sage]

a rank right before a rank up

so like

d3

p3

[shrewd matrix]

Aah

[cyan sage]

smurfs are hella common there cos people just like to prevent people to rank up💀

[silk jolt]

Like if someone has 500 wins or below it’s hard to believe they aren’t smurfing

[cyan sage]

you also tend to naturally fall into bubble ranks on new accounts, because i think the max you can place is like

d3

[shrewd matrix]

Rather people wanna help their friends rank up

[sudden forge]

ey art do u want to give some tips because im trying to get diamond im plat 2 rn @cyan sage

[cyan sage]

but yeah, i bet you it's like 5% or less

it might feel like more, but it really isn't

[silk jolt]

Hmmm I’ll pay more attention next time I play and get back to you

[cyan sage]

yeah i've got 230 games in comp 2s rn, all of them being in like c1-c3, and i don't think i've ever played more than 5 smurfs total this season

but tbf i probably don't really notice when i do because i am also lower than normal

[cyan sage]

what issues r u running into

liek sepcifc ones

jeuss

specific

holy hell

SPECIFIC ONES

and not some stuff abt ur teammates lmao

ur personal issues

[sudden forge]

its hard for me to airiel shooting and trying to rotate

[silk jolt]

It’s been way more for me and the only reason I know is cause of tracker like do you think someone could be c2 with like 500 matches played

[cyan sage]

you can google a video for a rough outline on how to rotate and position

[shrewd matrix]

I definetly met many people too lwk but thats the harsh reality u gotta face if u get to gc 1 and meet the higher players who start ranked late in the season so they didnt get back up yet. But also let to me having some amazing players on my team

[cyan sage]

virge has a good one

[sudden forge]

alr

[cyan sage]

as far as aerial ones go, it's kinda just practice, but a tutorial may help

psyonix aerial packs are a good start, unironically

[cyan sage]

kevpert got a good one

both advanced and basic

[sudden forge]

i can fast aerial but when i hit the ball its just SO SLOW
so the defenders can always defend it
