gameplay-tips

[tacit nymph]

Any other tips @digital creek

[plain flame]

Then any other things that I should learn at my rank

[digital creek]

Look at diamond gameplay on youtube you can see almost nobody 99% of the time is air dribbling

[plain flame]

To get better?

[digital creek]

Power shots find a power shot training pack and if you cant power shot find a video

[plain flame]

Alr

[digital creek]

A good placed powershot can get past a champ defender

[plain flame]

Dang

[digital creek]

If you shoot behind them its impossible to save at your rank

[plain flame]

Dang

[digital creek]

Like if they are front post or in the middle of net

[plain flame]

Bc I am getting pros that is kind un fair

[plain flame]

True

[tacit nymph]

@digital creek do u got any other tips then ranked?

[terse harness]

@cinder night yo

[digital creek]

@tacit nymph play 1v1 since you cant make as many mistakes without losing

[tacit nymph]

Ok

[plain flame]

Well thanks for telling me tips @digital creek

[cinder night]

wussup

[terse harness]

@cinder night when u want to play?

[cinder night]

sure

[terse harness]

when

[cinder night]

now

[terse harness]

ok

[digital creek]

Learn fast aerials aswell so you can shoot the ball to their half easily since almost all golds cant aerial at all

[plain flame]

Dang

Can you teach me fast aerials tho?

[digital creek]

Just hold your first jump for a quarter second while tilting up then tap your second jump (let go of stick to prevent flip) and fly to the ball

[plain flame]

K

[digital creek]

Dont wait until your 90 degrees for the second jump or it will slow you down jump at 45-50 degrees then jump

[plain flame]

Alr

[digital creek]

Your jump will push you opposite of your wheels so if you need to go behind you then its fine to jump at or past 90 degrees

[plain flame]

Btw what do you mean by flying at the ball bc the ball is on the ground

k

[digital creek]

If the balls high in the air

[plain flame]

Ohh

[digital creek]

In plat to diamond its in the air 20-35% of the time

[plain flame]

Alr

Dang

That really helped

Bc in free play i kicked the ball straight and it went over the goal and when I did that move set that got me to get the goal

[digital creek]

Thats called a double tap where you jump where the balls going to bounce to score

[plain flame]

Alr

[digital creek]

Its better to go back and let your teammate go and go back to defend than to try to do a double tap unless your confident in it and if you do go theres a chance you will both go and of you miss then theres no one to defend

[plain flame]

Ohhhh

Now I get it bc I go in with my teammate and the ball goes on our goal and there’s no one to defend it

[digital creek]

Never go for a shot if your teammates going unless you know you can score with it

[plain flame]

Alr

But sometimes my teammate doesn’t say he’s going for it so yeah

[digital creek]

You got to watch your teammate and dont dont anything unexpected without calling it or making it obvious somehow

[plain flame]

Alr

[digital creek]

If your teammates off screen then they are usually behind you so if you miss dont turn around and try again just let your teammate go

[plain flame]

K

[digital creek]

Gamesense is more important than mechanics. I can consistently air dribble in diamond and i almost never get opportunitys to set it up, so if you do learn a mech make sure its useful like a fast aerials, wavedashes, or power shots

[plain flame]

K

Btw if you wanna play or teach me anything then you can add me it’s xebsec

[digital creek]

Ill just add you on discord since im not on

[rose topaz]

im plat 1 in 1s can sm one 1v1 me higher then d1 in 1s 1v1

[plain flame]

Ok

[rain bridge]

do you know how to fast aerial?

[graceful tiger]

no

[rain bridge]

watch wayton's tutorial on yt

[graceful tiger]

mk

[narrow holly]

bros asking for aerials you might needa tone down the difficulty

[rain bridge]

they might as well start with it, it's not rocket science

[narrow holly]

@graceful tiger you can also practice flying from net to net

[narrow holly]

kk

[serene basin]

DM if you need a coach :)

[narrow holly]

i want to but my gamesense is at the level of a gold 🙏

probably too bad to even start off

[dusky fiber]

nah will be good, but try finding someone who coaches for free especially if u are lower, he will prob charge u something

[narrow holly]

0.0000001% chance

that i find someone for free

[solar plaza]

a bunch of ppl help with replays etc. for free

[boreal magnet]

Can anyone help me like practise hitting the ball mid air

[dusky fiber]

it depends what u are looking for, written tips here u will easily get, also maybe a replay review, but yh if u expect a coach to be there every day for some weeks then u might need to pay

[narrow holly]

hey......

[boreal magnet]

Can anyone coach and like I give stuff in a difrent game for you coaching me

[solar plaza]

ok send me the replay 🥴

[dusky fiber]

what doi u need?

[narrow holly]

cant, im on playstation bud 🙏

[solar plaza]

oh yeah lol

[boreal magnet]

Just like simple stuff

[dusky fiber]

such as?

[boreal magnet]

Just like hitting the ball in the air and all that

Cause Ime not bad but sometimes I miss

And ime not confident to go up for it

[narrow holly]

it really just depends on your confidence

that helped me alot

[dusky fiber]

so how do u feel about flying? how consistent are u with that?

[boreal magnet]

Ye Ime mid

?

[dusky fiber]

try practising flying a bit, u can for example go in your net and target the top right corner of the other net, if this is very easy u can also add in some air rolling to make it harder and also practise air roll the same time, about touching it in air i would say do some training packs, especially the defending ones, there usually 1 touch is all u need to clear it and no complicated shots or something, just be sure to not overuse 1 training pack try adding a bit of variety

[boreal magnet]

The corner to corner is to ez but air roll is to hard

Can u add me so u can see and like help

[dusky fiber]

try it at first 180 degree if straight ones are too easy, (i mean that u first air roll after jumping in 180 degree so u face it "backwards" and then trying to reach the others net top corner

[boreal magnet]

? Wdym 180

[dusky fiber]

that u turn your car to the exact opposite side

[boreal magnet]

Ye that’s ez

[vast coral]

[charred badger]

Can someone help, im stuck around c1 and i dont know how to get out, i dont know if its tm8s or me. I also dont really have experience with higher skilled tm8s

[cyan sage]

[barren oyster]

It do be both you and your teammates, but a lot of the times it’ll be you

[cyan sage]

my tm8s keep ballchasing in c

c1

[cyan sage]

what am i meant to do when all of a sudden i make a little mistake and they start owngoaling on puurpose

[charred badger]

yea all my friends say i shouldnt be c1. im just trying to look for a duo

[cyan sage]

same

wanna duo

[charred badger]

i doubt you in same region

[cyan sage]

im eu

[charred badger]

yea im oce

[cyan sage]

oh nvm then

[barren oyster]

The best course of action is to get better to lessen the amount of mistakes you make

[charred badger]

would've been made to be

[cyan sage]

what rank r u

[barren oyster]

C3 3s and 2s

[cyan sage]

damn

can u help me?

.

[charred badger]

how do you have to play in c3 like is it fast, do you have to be mechanical? or..

[cyan sage]

its just more fast

[barren oyster]

For me it most of the time it is playing faster, positioning and rotating is pretty big though

As important as playing faster is, there’s no point when you’re playing fast and mess up your positioning

[charred badger]

yea i feel like i can do all that i just need a tm8 that can support me or be up to standard

[cyan sage]

jimmy wat server u on?

?

[barren oyster]

I’m a NA player but I only solo q

[cyan sage]

ok

[charred badger]

how come?

[barren oyster]

Started playing the game by myself and it just stayed that way

[charred badger]

yea but wouldnt you want someone that you can rely on so you can get used to their playstyle and communicate better?

[barren oyster]

I’ve thought about it but I prefer to get a wider range of experience with different teammates. Not saying that playing with someone you know is bad, I just prefer solo q atm

[charred badger]

true

[woeful thunder]

Solo queue is best

All my homies know that trying to find a duo is not it

[bleak rain]

Guys, does anybody have any experience in training?

I kinda want a trainer.

I’m plat 1.

[robust bloom]

What are you training for

[bleak rain]

I want to be a diamond.

But I want to get a lot better at the game.

[robust bloom]

Play it for thousands of hours then

[bleak rain]

It can you help me get better?

What rank are you?

[robust bloom]

Gc1/2

[boreal magnet]

Any tips on air dribble ?

[rain bridge]

practice. It's just muscle memory

watch wayton's tutorial

[boreal magnet]

K lol

[quiet whale]

I finally hit plat after 225 hours on the game in ranked doubles without playing with a teamate (solo queue) is that good and any tips on how to progress further

[forest rock]

get your setup to a very good state, then practice hitting the ball correctly, is the most important part of the Airdribble for learners.

The rest u get with practice.

[bleak rain]

Same, except I have 140 hours.

[slate plover]

hey im silver 3 what are some tips to get better (everyone reckons i should be higher than silver)

[forest rock]

play the game.

[bleak rain]

I think you should try doing a double musty tap ceilings shot.

Nah jk.

[slate plover]

i am working on musty

[bleak rain]

…

[slate plover]

kinda getting the hang of it but only a liitle

[rain bridge]

dont train musty in silver

[rain bridge]

get better at controlling the ball

[bleak rain]

@slate plover work on the fundamentals.

Cause silvers aren’t trash anymore.

[forest rock]

You dont need to be able to do a musty...
You need to learn how to play the game properly and how to play with your team, Rotations, boost management, and "Normal" Shooting, will get you into gold if not plat.

[rain bridge]

its the second lowest rank lol

[bleak rain]

Yes, but they are getting better.

[slate plover]

thats the thing everyone reckons i should be a higher rank

[bleak rain]

Like silvers used to play like trash.

[bleak rain]

Don’t worry about that.

[rain bridge]

rl evolves

[bleak rain]

That’s what I’m saying

[slate plover]

in some cases silvers cant touch the ball

[quiet whale]

Damm what do u play solos duos trios?

[bleak rain]

True but in others, they can do crazy stuff also.

[rain bridge]

but it affected all the other ranks, so it doesnt matter much

[bleak rain]

Duos.

[quiet whale]

Are u solo q

[bleak rain]

@quiet whale wanna play?

[bleak rain]

Yeah, most of the time.

[quiet whale]

Ye sure what platform u on

[bleak rain]

Ps5

[forest rock]

doesnt matter tho, there is crossplay no?

[bleak rain]

There is.

[forest rock]

Only region is harder to get right.

[bleak rain]

He prob just asking.

I’m UE.

East.

so like, ehhhhh. i wanna play rl, but ehhhhhhhhhhhhh

[grizzled sundial]

it is the only way

[cinder night]

[cyan sage]

[raw sky]

I think ya

[upbeat widget]

Idk how to reach gc

im still in c2-c3

i dont find a good tm8

[humble moon]

Does anyone know how to roll more than once

Cause i can only roll once when i press x and box

On controller

[dusky fiber]

play more 1s to improve individually, look more around u to make deccision making better, play less risky especially in corners, get better with adapting

[dusky fiber]

u prob see people air rolling, when u flick u do 1 turn but with air roll u can turn however u like, but u dont get the power

[humble moon]

I can only go ick😭

Flick

[dusky fiber]

will be alright at first, in lower ranks flicks are way more useful then air roll anyway so dont worry

[inner trail]

Peoples

I need some assistance from someone who is good and uses air roll left

[humble moon]

But I want to learn how to airroll tho

[dusky fiber]

then u need to practise it, but start with simple turns this spinning around things wont help u much at first

[inner trail]

What's your rank g

[dusky fiber]

rn gc3 in 2s and gc2 in 3s

[inner trail]

U use directional ar? If so which one

[dusky fiber]

i mainly use the free air roll, sometimes air roll left but not that much

[inner trail]

Ah alr same like me

Free air roll but learning directional

Gc2 in 2s 🗣️

[cinder night]

the rare free air roll main

[dusky fiber]

nice keep it up

[inner trail]

Yh man

[dusky fiber]

yess

[inner trail]

Lmao yh

[cinder night]

im free air roll too, i feel like one of the last remaining free air roll mains

[inner trail]

I looked up to alpha 54 but was like I could be more mechy or smthn with directional

[inner trail]

Maybe

I'm liking directional rn

Been practicing only today and scored some weird breeezi and reset drop-down catch shot

[dusky fiber]

yh there are some poeple who say "u have to learn it to get higher" but u will be alright dw lol

[inner trail]

Yh fe

Fr*

[cinder night]

In my eyes, i think its more of a preference thing than a necessity for either. Directional can be more controlled but free air roll is more applicable in different scenarios

[dim violet]

Can someone try to teach me how to properly kick off in keyboard

I watched a tones of videos but still can't understand.

[cinder night]

yeah im peak 2k mmr, see a lot of people telling lower ranks not to use free air roll because directional is better and they won't progress if they dont learn it, i disagree

[dusky fiber]

what elo are u in? cause i feel like speed flipping is the most common kick off scenario, can u do a speed flip by now?

[deep vine]

im champ 2 rn using default controls should i switch ?

[dusky fiber]

yh same, but yh some people do say that

[dim violet]

I can't even do front flip in kick off I was diamond somehow

[dusky fiber]

doi u feel comfortable with them?

[dim violet]

Do I use powerslide in speed flip or dragon flip or whatelse, for example?

[cinder night]

you can see people still not flip on kickoff up into the champ ranks. some just never learn it, but you will have to at some point

[dusky fiber]

usually not just if u mess it up to keep the speed

[dim violet]

I still use boost until near of the ball and double jump because I miss otherwise, it's really annoying

[deep vine]

i mean its the only settings ive tried so yea but i see a lot of vids saying directional is better

[dim violet]

Still trying to learn but nobody use a keyboard symbol for their video

[cinder night]

sounds like you gotta work on kickoffs

[dim violet]

yes..

[dusky fiber]

play more 1s and try out diffrent things, there u will see what things work out and which dont

[vale ice]

Guys i lost in the finals of the 3v3 tournament

[cinder night]

shouldve tried to win instead

[dusky fiber]

i mean if u want a change give it a try, might be frustrating at first cause u start at the beginn, u dont have to learn it to reach gc just saying

[dusky fiber]

unlucky

[vale ice]

my team8s were so trash

in the two first matches we scrored 8 goals and 7 were from me

[dusky fiber]

most common excuse for being bad at adapting in this server

[final raptor]

hi suche ein deutschen mate für 2vs2 bin dia 2. gerne melden

[cinder night]

what you mean is your teammates didnt complement you well, saying they are trash isn't a good mentality to have

[dusky fiber]

dm

[vale ice]

it's the truth bro someone was staying in the back letting us 2v3

[acoustic fox]

heck you mean dm bro just cursed us for life

i demand an exorcism

[vale ice]

and they can't even areal

[acoustic fox]

that's really unfortunate, but just blaming it on your teammates doesn't quite help you

[dusky fiber]

i dont wanna start a german conversation here lol

[acoustic fox]

like you made it to the finals

they surely weren't that bad

[acoustic fox]

no yeah lmao youre right don't worry

[cinder night]

always room for self improvement

[acoustic fox]

it's supposed to be english only here

[vale ice]

bro i hit 1 reset and a double tap in the same match they were spectating me

[acoustic fox]

did those value more than any of their goals though?

[dusky fiber]

attitude is one of the worst things for improvement sometimes

Ranked and freestyle camera settings based on pros

[cinder night]

did you come here to complain or do you want actual tips? because it sounds like you are very close minded, which is honestly probably keeping you from reaching a higher rank

[acoustic fox]

saying you scored a reset doesn't really put you above any of them

[vale ice]

i'm stopping the 3v3 tournaments now

[vale ice]

no i don't wanna get a higher rank rn

[cinder night]

then why are you in this chat lmao

[acoustic fox]

well he's honest with it

[cinder night]

just to complain?

[acoustic fox]

gotta admit he's real for that

[dusky fiber]

if u are looking for confirmation about teammates being trash u wont get any here

[acoustic fox]

but please like complain in idk, #rocket-league

[terse harness]

@cinder night tipps how to get back on gc1 div3?

[cinder night]

actually yes, i gotchu

[vale ice]

whatttt i thought we were in general🤣

[heavy salmon]

can anyone help me with flicks?

[vale ice]

@cinder night all i just want is to have the cristianos lol

[cinder night]

You have a tendency to abandon pressure quite often. Look at your replays and find points where you are in offense and you leave to grab boost, or don't position well enough to maintain offensive pressure. That was your only glaring weakness holding you back. Seemed like you were very hesitant at times which made you either slow, out of position, or whiff

[heavy salmon]

pls?

[shell thorn]

[vale ice]

i bought the rocket pass yesterday i'm just waiting for them to come in the shop

[acoustic fox]

hi idi

[shell thorn]

can i have tips for heatseeker ricochet?

[vale ice]

Hi

[terse harness]

@cinder night ty my boy

[cinder night]

🫡

[acoustic fox]

i never remember what ricochet means

bounces?

something like that right

[shell thorn]

yea lol

[acoustic fox]

right

loo

l

[heavy salmon]

anyone wanna help me with flicks pls?

[acoustic fox]

well first of all

are you able to dribble consistently?

[shell thorn]

hello

[vale ice]

bruh i thought he was talking about flick reset

[heavy salmon]

like to keep the ball on car?

[acoustic fox]

yeah

[vale ice]

yeah

[heavy salmon]

my best was something like 14 sec

[shell thorn]

@acoustic fox do you mind if i ask you a question in DMs?

[cinder night]

Step 1: practice moving the ball around without it on your hood first. Direction changes and all. Keep the ball as close as you can

Step 2: Do the same thing but with the ball on your hood. You need to be comfortable with controlling the ball either on the ground or on your car before you can be consistent with your flicks

[heavy salmon]

do u know a map on bakkesmod that can help me with that?

[acoustic fox]

well that's the first step

@shell thorn yeah go ahead

[vale ice]

@shell thorn im sur u fall in love with him

[acoustic fox]

there's a few workshops I think that can help you

maybe in #1052656493096357919?

I think that channel has those

I am not sure though didn't check

[heavy salmon]

thank u very much

[shell thorn]

yes

[acoustic fox]

Good

[vale ice]

@cinder night bro ur our master if we have a question u know the answer

[acoustic fox]

lmao

I saw it a bit over the other day but wasn't sure

[shell thorn]

i have it off lol

i just have the main discussion channels, community support and this.

[acoustic fox]

yeah I have almost everything muted except like #esports I think

and I'm never there anymore

can't be bothered to change it now

[cinder night]

Also don't get frustrated. It'll take some time before you get it right, and it'll be even longer until you're truly good at them. Even in GC and SSL, people mess up flicks

[cinder night]

🫡

[shell thorn]

ive been stuck in champion II division 4 for like 4 days now

[cinder night]

try being unstuck

maybe that'll help

Also that's still top 1-2% in the world, so you can think of it like that

[acoustic fox]

that's actually

a really good thing to know

Thanks man

[cyan sage]

thats a flex, top 1%

[cinder night]

it might actually be closer to 5%, idk its been a while since i looked at rank distributions, but if you were a top 5% neurosurgeon in the world then I'd say you were pretty damn successful

[pine wolf]

same

[vestal canyon]

@jagged mica we cookin

[wind mirage]

dont blame teamates.

[wind mirage]

focus on defense shots and clears+rotation

[mental moss]

I meet players whose level does not even reach gold, so how can I win?

[wind mirage]

let them ballchase and try and score from passes.

[mental moss]

okay ty

[wind mirage]

if they arent passing then jus let em cook

[cyan sage]

Could anyone coach me

[pine wolf]

consciously play better defense, wait for overcommits, be a good 2nd man, do not overcommit, know when to challenge and communicate it to your teammate giving them enough time to react, collect pads, manage your boost and don't use it unnecessarily

[robust frigate]

I Always want to take my Time and bounce dribble but my opponents chase the ball and i lose it. Any tips?

[sullen fulcrum]

what rank ru

[pine wolf]

bounce dribbling is useful if you have enough space otherwise just get it over the opponents

[robust frigate]

Thanks

[pine wolf]

bounce dribbles provide perfect setups for both powershots and ground-air dribbles if you have the opportunity to

[zealous pilot]

Anyone got tips to get to gc2 in 1v1s?

[pine wolf]

work on challenging, dealing with challenges, boost management, work on perfecting your rotations/defense, always better not to go for unnecessary mechanics and play with 100% of your brain

[zealous pilot]

@pine wolf thank you 🙂

@pine wolf whats your 1v1 rank?

[pine wolf]

gold 2

[zealous pilot]

O-o

[pine wolf]

i peaked plat 2 div 3

[vale ice]

damnit we trusted u

[zealous pilot]

Thats some good advice, how do you nkow if your peak is plat tho>

[pine wolf]

because i peaked plat

i think i would know

[zealous pilot]

I meant, how would you know what to do in gc

i typed it wrong

[pine wolf]

because gcs are stupid and fat

[zealous pilot]

True

I aint fat tho

[pine wolf]

work on recognizing when your opponent will challenge and try to force them to give you space by abusing their stupid fat monkey challenges

[zealous pilot]

Lmao

ok, ty 👍

Also, anyone know how to work the looking for group bot?

[pine wolf]

/looking-for-group

[cyan sage]

Can someone give me some tips on what mechanics I need to get gc

[cinder night]

losing less

thats a good mechanic to have

arguably just as important as winning more

[pine wolf]

the ability to dribble and flick

works every time

learn to dribble and try to mess around with the speed of the ball in relation to your car to see how the ball will flick if you flip in certain directions

[cyan sage]

@winter steppe check dms

[gloomy elk]

what do you do in a 3's game if both your opponents ballchase but suck so they barely score and thus you have to take the more defensive role in plat?

like i swear every offensive counterattack my teamates go for is then booming the ball to the opponents corner and the opponents has an easy save and then regain control

teammates sorry

got mixed up

[cinder night]

unfortunately it be that way sometimes

[young aurora]

anyone wanna play some casual 2s with me im coming back to the game its been a year or so was diamond jus wanna un wash and vc wit someone NAE

pls

[cinder night]

#looking-for-group

[gloomy elk]

bro these teammates do not listen

[young aurora]

ik but i cant state what im tryna play on there

[gloomy elk]

like i could be spamming 'i got it' on kickoff and they will still always go

and they're not cheating towards the ball

They're full boosting

inconsistent strategy for me

don't want to be the 'all my teammate has no brain they're all trash im the only good one' but for like 7/10 games, it feels that way

[earnest nexus]

Yo wanna play im plat 1

But I’m rlly good

[zinc root]

just dont slam into the ball and you will be closer

[sullen mesa]

me

[mortal quail]

As long as your upside down so the ball makes contact with your windshield yes

[solemn arrow]

should a diamond player already by now know how to air dribble?

im in hard stuck in diamond d2 and ppl keep air dribbling and landing crazy flicks on me

[cyan sage]

Should a gold know?

im gold and i can barley

only when im near post

[solemn arrow]

air dribbling in gold no

[vital matrix]

im not diamond im plat but i wanna say diamond is when you should start grinding because its basically the rank you start your e sports arc

[cyan sage]

I know how to airdibble but i can only do it near post and idk if its good

[solemn arrow]

issue is what do i have to work on tho, im doing my reseacrh and ppl keep saying diff stuff. It might be me being a monkey but i js need somewhere to start

[solemn arrow]

near post?

[mortal quail]

Diamond: Stop tilt queueing, give your teammate space, get better at punishing your opponents. This can be done with good shooting and reads. Starting defending off backboard and get better at doing it. See the enemy up high, go backboard. Get better at basic aerials and wall touches as these can be vital. Get better at offense without sacrificing defense

[solemn arrow]

thank u big time

[cyan sage]

Can someone coach me I'm trash 3

uh im gold

[topaz lava]

how to do air dribble

[raw sky]

I can’t air dribble and I’m C2

I never practice it really that’s why

Power shots flicks good rotations decent defense will get u into champ easily

[rugged lark]

Hey I’m c1 and am struggling to win consistently I always win 2 lose 2 and can’t get out of div 3

[solemn arrow]

im rn working on backboard defense

that should be hlpe

[gloomy elk]

like half the time i go for speedflip on kickoff, i get bumped somehow even though my opponent is definitely not speedflipping. I know i am doing the speedflip cuz ive used musty training pack to verify it but i dont get how im getting bumped

[rugged lark]

Let me see

Add me it’s the same as my discord

[acoustic fox]

there's a chance you're slightly messing it up, or that the opponent is also doing it

it doesn't seem like it sometimes but it's really common to mess it up a bit so that it looks like one but doesn't quite have the same effect

[barren oyster]

Looking at a game replay would also help

[acoustic fox]

yeah that too

[gloomy elk]

im gonna be on tomorrow

[frigid monolith]

Yo

[cyan sage]

Could anyone coach me

I'm hardstuck plat

[pale yacht]

honestly in plat, learn to do long shots and hit the ball on backboard, aslo just be aware of your tm8s position. rather than getting mad at them doinle commiting, be aware they WILL double commit, and leave it for them

[cyan sage]

Can someone coach me I'm trash III

[little pagoda]

can someone play with me? Asia server

[ancient horizon]

Yo does anyone have an easy way to learn air roll left for Xbox controller

[pine wolf]

no

also flip resets are supposed to push the ball away a bit you most likely aren't hitting them correctly

[karmic stag]

Wanting to get gc2 thus season, anyone have insight or can coach me to get there

[cyan sage]

it's not easy, just do it a ton
you can try switching between holding no direction on the stick, versus holding straight up/left/right/down, nothing in between. that could simplify things
get a feel for what your car does if you just hold air roll left + up, or + down, etc.
then move between holding nothing and holding one of those

there's no real shortcut to the grind though, you just have to trial and error it for a while. there's no secret or anything, just keep practicing

[pale yacht]

what region u? also wanna try get gc2 soon

[ancient horizon]

So no like down and to the left and stuff yet

Only up down left right

I’ve been in training practicing it for like a bit over an hour each day for like 2 weeks and I still have no idea how to control it

[late ice]

so i jsut started again after like a 2 to 3 years and got placed plat 2 is that bad or good

[cyan sage]

oh you can absolutely do down and to the left stuff, and anything in between
but like, if you're looking to simplify things, then don't worry about the full range of motion and just stick to more repeatable things

basically:
#1 you can hold a single direction that's easy to remember
#2 you can move the stick kind of randomly and not know what's going to happen next
#1 is easier to learn than #2

so if you've been just vibing around and moving the stick constantly and not being able to keep you car up, then try just simplifying things and seeing if you can control just the basic directions

[cyan sage]

it'll take longer than this for sure but it's a good start and it's great you have a routine/habit of it, you'll get eventually if you just keep trying things

[karmic stag]

Na

[cyan sage]

it's good, I wouldn't worry about rank too much
that's what I started at when I came back to the game as well which is neat

[late ice]

ok and cause tbh i got no clue what i was doing 95 percent of the time

[cyan sage]

yea that's plat alright hahahahaha

don't know what's going on but hit ball hard good 👍

[late ice]

i couldnt even do that half the time lmao

[cyan sage]

lmao ay something to work on then

[late ice]

yeah cause im pretty good on defence still but like scoring i super hard for me

[cyan sage]

that's pretty good, a lot of people have the opposite problem, so you're a good tm for them probably

and shooting is easier to practice than defense imo

just load up a training pack and work on aiming for the corners and you'll get really good at it

[late ice]

bet and yeah when i played before i did a lot of defense training

[tired trellis]

Any tips for getting out of gold? I’ve been stuck in gold 1 for as long as I can remember. The most I can get to is division 4 and then lose it due to teammates I can’t rely and fall down to division 1/2

[late ice]

what rank are you now

[jagged mica]

I went from like gold to champ in like a month with decent mech

[rose garnet]

Trust your teammates. Learn the basics

[cyan sage]

gc1

[cyan sage]

If you're in a position where you have to rely on your teammates in gold 1, you've already messed up
nitpick yourself a little bit more and you'll find basic stuff you can improve on

[tired trellis]

I’ll try improving on that then.

[tired trellis]

Thanks for the tip

[buoyant jewel]

you should also try your hardest to make sure you arent double commiting/over commiting

[buoyant jewel]

this got me from plat-diamond

[acoustic fox]

true

also I feel like maybe you're even overthinking it a bit

like honestly before like plat I wouldn't be worrying so much about ranking up

[cinder night]

gold will beat themselves, you just gotta let them

[acoustic fox]

right

sup aion

[cinder night]

like dare I say in gold you could do literally nothing all game and have a 50% chance of winning

ello ello

[acoustic fox]

yeah gold is literally a coinflip

that's why I think that worrying about anything other than improving yourself isn't really worth it

[cinder night]

frfr

[acoustic fox]

I'm gonna be honest my attention span is fading out what is that paragraph about

[cinder night]

there also isn't any reliable team play until at least champ anyway, so blaming your teammate(s) doesn't really make sense until you get to that point. And even then, your teammates are at that rank for a reason. Just because they don't complement your playstyle or had a bad game doesn't mean they're trash 🤷‍♂️

[cyan sage]

Could anyone coach me

[cinder night]

i didnt even realize i was typing for that long lmao

[acoustic fox]

so real

[acoustic fox]

well feel free to ask anything and we'll try to answer

🙂‍↕️

[cinder night]

what rank you at pal

[acoustic fox]

lmao

[cyan sage]

Plat @cinder night

[cinder night]

2s?

[cyan sage]

Ye

[cinder night]

just focus on controlling the ball and having fun man

[cyan sage]

.

[acoustic fox]

and shooting please for god's sake

improve your shooting

but in general yeah not much to say other than keep grinding

because that's kind of the endline of it but still inside that "find your playstyle and strengths/weaknesses" range

[tired trellis]

Thx

[cinder night]

tbh, ima be so real for a sec, until you get to like high diamond at least, the MOST important thing for you to do is enjoy the game. As much as higher ranks bicker about "don't practice this, do that", it's all about you having fun and putting in the hours. Sure things like air dribbles and stuff don't help you in ranked, but as long as you're putting in the hours and enjoying the game, you WILL rank up

[acoustic fox]

man wanted to speak in facts

[cinder night]

🫡

[cyan sage]

Thanks for the advice

[cinder night]

no problem

[winter steppe]

dm for coaching

[cinder night]

NEXT

[acoustic fox]

Lmfao

wish we had delete message abilities

I swear I see more messages like that than actual people asking for help

[cyan sage]

But what if you get bad tm8?

[cinder night]

don't worry about it

[acoustic fox]

that's unfortunately not something you can control

so you shouldn't really give it much importance

[cinder night]

worrying about your teammates mistakes won't improve YOU as a player. Just focus on YOU

[vital pivot]

you guys think I should grind 1s in order to be able to solo in 2s cuz god damn dude Im so tired

[acoustic fox]

well I mean

the teammates discussion is always so subjective

I think that blaming it on them will not help you in any way

and you should see if you yourself are lacking something that 1s might help you understand or learn

[cinder night]

If you think your consistency as an individual player is subpar then yes, but if you want to play 1s to improve your 2s bc your "tm8s are bad" then I'd say what's more important for you is to change your mindset

[vital pivot]

what would you say more specifically in terms of mindset,cuz I always go in as positive as I can,thinking "I can trust my teammate to go for that or not go for that" only to be disappointed like 4/5 matches,which is why I'd rather try soloing stuff,I also definitely need to train my speed kickoff cuz its defo not consistent

[cyan sage]

everyone asks what if you get bad tm, but never what if you get bad opponent 😔
they're drawn from the same pool of people

[acoustic fox]

oh and do you know that feeling when you get a bad teammate and he goes to the opposite team and ends up mvp

leaves you reflecting about a lot of things

[cinder night]

It's not always about putting your full trust in your teammate. You're just setting yourself up for disappointment at that point. You have to think more like:

• What can I do to help?
• Where should I be if it goes right/wrong?
• What do I need to do so my teammate has the best opportunity

stuff like that

[vale ice]

@cinder night @acoustic fox it's been 9hrs ur typing non stop

[cyan sage]

I've been that guy quite a bit, and it's hilarious. I'll have a bad game, think "wow I really need to play better with x y and z things", and then next game I'm playing way better with the ex-tm on the opposite team. it feels awful honestly lol

[cinder night]

If you're "positive" thinking is along the lines of "my teammate will be great" or "my teammate has that" or "my teammate can hit that" then when he DOESN'T, you're inevitably going to be dissapointed

[cinder night]

shhh

[acoustic fox]

actually I just came back I haven't been here for those 9 hours lmao

[cinder night]

i just got back on actually

[acoustic fox]

dude you know how much pain you're causing us

nowadays I literally just see the guy in the other team and accept my defeat beforehand

It's a curse lmao

[cyan sage]

tbf I don't do it that much hahahahaha but I mean, yea keenly aware of how much pain I am causing yes

but I did win the game (:

[vale ice]

does anyone know how does vatira to speed flick but the car goes straight

[acoustic fox]

oh no yeah it doesn't happen often either but when it does

[cyan sage]

clip?

[acoustic fox]

fair enough lmao

[vital pivot]

I genuinely,no bs,no ego,no nothing think like that,I try and get challenges in my favour so my teammate can have space and make a play or try and position myself to be able to save stuff in case he fails or stuff like that

[cinder night]

probably just speed flip but straight 👍

[rugged lark]

Any tips for a plat in 2s gold in rumble looking to get diamond in rumble

[acoustic fox]

probably just perfected it yeah

[vale ice]

like if he did a front plip but he is doing a speed flick

[acoustic fox]

I haven't seen it though can't quite tell you

[vale ice]

no at kick off

[cinder night]

then that's fine, just don't be disappointed when it doesn't work out. Your teammates are in your rank for a reason

[cyan sage]

you scare me for wanting that
know which powerups should lead to goals and which powerups to ditch instantly I suppose

[rugged lark]

What scares you

[vale ice]

he doesn't turn his car on the side before the speed fick like other players he just goes straight

it's what i don't understand

[cinder night]

I don't play rumble at all but I was good friends with the top 3 rumble players back in the day. One thing I learned is that if you have the grapple hook, you are now goalie. It's an overpowered defensive powerup

[cyan sage]

the fact that you want diamond in rumble. the fact that you are willing to grind rumble. the fact that, dare I even say, you may enjoy rumble.
disgosrsting

[acoustic fox]

isn't it bugged now though

[cinder night]

no clue

[acoustic fox]

I think that if the ball is coming straight to you too fast it just doesn't hit

[rugged lark]

I do indeed enjoy it and I do intend to get diamond

[acoustic fox]

or perhaps it got fixed

[cinder night]

idk man like I said I don't play rumble, that's about all I know

[cyan sage]

terrifying

[acoustic fox]

I haven't played in ages either but I remember it being a thing for so long

[rugged lark]

I’m the outlier

[acoustic fox]

figured it might still be

[vital pivot]

forgot what I was gonna write lmao,I don't feel like genuine disappointment,Its just sorta annoying that its usually stuff outta my control that causes me to lose w randoms which leaves me thinking that I should probably try grinding 1s

[vale ice]

like look at this

[cyan sage]

I would have to see it in a clip or a replay or something, I may look it up later but I'm lazy :L

[cinder night]

have you looked at your replays?

[vale ice]

[rugged lark]

He did turn his car? What are you talking about

[vale ice]

@cyan sage look the first kick off he didn't turn his car on the left before doing the speed flick

[rugged lark]

Yes he did

It’s a very minor turn but he did

[vital pivot]

in 2s?yeah I've done that a couple of times to try and analyse my mistakes and work on them

[acoustic fox]

yeah he turns to the left after going right

and speedflips to the right

It's just the camera angle messing around

[cinder night]

I'd say in most (nearly all) scenarios where you get scored on, there was something that you could have done differently that would have prevented the goal. Looking at the surface level of "my teammate missed the ball so it went in" isn't enough. Analyze the last 10-15 seconds before the goal and point out something you could have changed that led to the goal. Most if not all the time, you will find something

[cyan sage]

yea he's flipping very slightly to the right there and also moving very slightly to the right, even ignoring the initial little setup turns there

[vale ice]

yeah but this turn is so short i don't know how he can go to the ball like this

[acoustic fox]

pro players

[cyan sage]

very clean. on his stick, it's pretty much the minimum angle required to get a diagonal flip and not a frontflip it looks like

[vale ice]

he is the only pro who's doing it

[acoustic fox]

they simply do it

[cyan sage]

agree. just want to heavily emphasize looking at the last 10-15 seconds

[cinder night]

heavily heavily emphasized

[cyan sage]

so many people who blame their teammates only look at the past 2 seconds. go back even a little further and there's definitely always constantly every single time something you coulda done

[rugged lark]

That’s definitely not true there are too many pros to make a statement like that

[acoustic fox]

most of agh I hate my teammates complains come from only looking at the last mistake made before the goal

there surely is something a few seconds earlier that turns it back to you

sorry not surely

That sounds rude

there probably is

[vital pivot]

I usually do,but I'll try and have a longer look at what Im doing,Im also under the impression that solo q ing is pretty much just hell lmao

[vale ice]

but he's the only one who's doing it at all kick off

[cyan sage]

mfkrs will really be stuck to the opponent backwall with 0 boost and pogoing off the floor when they try to wavedash, and then when their teammate can't defend, they're like "omg L teammate"

[rugged lark]

Also the reason is bc he speed flips right so it flips he right bringing him closer to the ball

[rugged lark]

So you’ve Analyzed every single pros kickoff

[vale ice]

bruh send me one clip of a pro doing it at the kick off i'll see

[cinder night]

i mean solo q ing isn't IDEAL. Ideally you have some buds who match well with your playstyle and you can com with, but it's also not impossible at all. A slight disadvantage, yes, but it's only hard if you make it hard

[rugged lark]

Sure I guess if that’s what you want

[cinder night]

The only time I really blame my teammates is when I'm playing 3s and I get matched with a duo q and one of the guys is 400 mmr below me 🙂

not much I can do about that

[vital pivot]

yeah for sure

[vital pivot]

ugh that sounds rough lmao

[cinder night]

Oh it's the terrible. One of the reasons I quit caring about my rank a while ago

[cyan sage]

I actually really like playing those games, but it's a very low win percentage. just fun to see how they handle the way higher rank than they're used to

[vital pivot]

friends be dropping the game bro,I gotta find some random guy across eu to play w lmao

[acoustic fox]

well at least you're in like EU

what do you leave for the oce people

[cinder night]

That's how I think of it now that I don't care lmao

[acoustic fox]

lmao

[vital pivot]

yeah fair,ik it sucks for oce or sam cuz there's like no people playing

[cyan sage]

I still remember there was this gold player in like a c3 or maybe c2 3s game I played a long time ago
they were quite lost, very out of position, very low boost, couldn't aerial, etc. etc. etc.
after around a minute, they had a brilliant idea.
they stole, on repeat for the rest of the match, every single boost, and then me and their friend 2v3'd lmao

like honestly, pretty good adaptation. it was quite helpful actually

and we lost, but like interesting move lmao

[cinder night]

that's great

it helps when they're wholesome too

[cyan sage]

they were kinda doing work for a little bit

just lived in the opponent half and got every boost and pad on spawn like an absolute gremlin entity

[cinder night]

I can't stand when someone who doesn't belong in the lobby starts trash talking their own team

[acoustic fox]

bro was a villain not a player

[cyan sage]

and like you coudl see the logic so clearly hahahahaha

"I can't hit the ball or the players and I'm constantly out of boost"

"I'LL JUST HIT THE PADS"

[acoustic fox]

lmao literally

[prisma oak]

Can someone help me with getting a second reset? I can get the second reset but i’m having a hard time using it the ball just flies away or i’m too low

[vital pivot]

what y'all think bout those "2 goals down,3 minutes left,forfeits and afks the rest of the match"typa players?))

[cinder night]

Aion helpful tip of the day: If you trash talk your teammate, they will play WORSE. So you might as well encourage them, or else neither you or your teammate are going to enjoy that game, and you will more than likely lose

[acoustic fox]

if the ball flies away you might be hitting the first reset too hard

have you tried to stop boosting a moment before hitting it?

[prisma oak]

it flies away after i get the second reset

[acoustic fox]

oh well

[prisma oak]

i can get the second one i just can’t use it

[acoustic fox]

that's just a practice thing

[cinder night]

I would but I'd have to be in a vc and in a private match with you and I don't feel like it if im being honest lmao

[acoustic fox]

like repetition until you get the flip right

[prisma oak]

fair enough

so just grind it out

[vale ice]

are u french?

[acoustic fox]

because it's not like you have that much control over a mid air flip into the ball

[prisma oak]

right

[acoustic fox]

yeah I'd say keep trying and unless you see literally 0 progress

don't stress too much about it

it's one of the harder mechanics for a reason

I've had the same issue too

flipping into it sends it flying

[cyan sage]

slomo strat exists if you're interested and/or bored. not sure it would really help here though, but food for thought
as in try it in slomo to see if the idea is right

[prisma oak]

yea i’m doing it w a stall so it doesn’t go as high as speedflipping into it

[acoustic fox]

but if you get it right how to flip then it'll happen naturally

[cinder night]

i mean pretty much. I would instead of looking at what you're doing wrong with your second reset, look at what you're doing wrong with your first. A lot of your second reset depends on how you get your first one

[acoustic fox]

yeah fair stalls work too

[prisma oak]

ok i’ll just grind it out thanks guys

[cinder night]

oh I hate stalls nvm lmao

[acoustic fox]

true

[prisma oak]

should i try to learn it sppedflippung into it?

i heard stalling makes u more consistent

[acoustic fox]

defo preference

[cinder night]

whatever you want man

[prisma oak]

alr ty for the help

[cinder night]

personally I don't think stalls are reliable but if you like it then go for it

unless you're a freestyler that is

[acoustic fox]

also stalls don't look as cool as flips

imo

and I'm assuming learning something like this isn't for like ranking up lmao

[cinder night]

stalls are almost irrelavent at higher ranks, thats why you see them flipping into it instead of stalling

it also looks cooler

[cyan sage]

how do i 1v2 properly (solo queue teammates suck)

[acoustic fox]

one of those nights innit

[cinder night]

ah here we go again

[cyan sage]

oh that's a cursed question

[acoustic fox]

lmfao

[cinder night]

hold on lemme find the messages

[cyan sage]

have you tried 1v1 m8

[acoustic fox]

might as well pin them at this point
