[upbeat spoke]

Do I have to

[cold moth]

You dont have to do anything

But also, you asked the question 😭

sure buddy

[tropic hamlet]

takes two to lose 🤷

[grim skiff]

insane

[median patrol]

.

[barren oyster]

Fact: Yeah sometimes they’ll miss the open net or just play bad rocket league but know this, your soloQ teammates aren’t always going to play the way you expect them to and you can’t change that

So what do you do:
Focus on your mistakes and where you can improve as a player. You will never be able to improve your soloQ teammates.

[cyan sage]

It’s the unpredictability

[golden mural]

anyone got good workshop maps to warmup and practice with? im about gc1 level

[shrewd matrix]

Just do a good rings map then dribble 2 overhaul or eversaxx dribbling challenge and aim training by coco or whatever its called thats the most common proposition

Though workshop maps are better for training than they are for warming up

Oh and maybe that air dribble gauntlet from leth

Means those gcs are completely clueless about what they are doing aka those gcs are not good

[median patrol]

Oh ok

[shrewd matrix]

What rank are you

[golden mural]

yea thats the question whats a good rings map

[shrewd matrix]

Zineel (pro player) said basically any of lethamyrs rings map

Or any of the ones you always see on youtubr

I cant tell you the one exactly cause im a broke console player🥲

[golden mural]

how do i properly train with the leths maps cuz theyre kinda easy and im not really learning much from them at this point

[thorny forge]

can someone help me speed flip in vc thankls

[shrewd matrix]

Go for speed and efficiency. You can also mess yourself up on purpose and try to recover out of it. And ofcourse improve your air roll abilities since its unlikely you have mastered that yet

[shrewd matrix]

Dm me i can try

[golden mural]

the speed and efficiency part is what ive been doing

doesnt help much

ive ogtten abotu as fast as u can

without tas*

[shrewd matrix]

Then you dont really need the rings maps anymore besides maybe just chilling from time to time

They dont have too much difficulty. Well there might be some harder rings maps out there i dont know

There is still other maps he created tho. His recent impossible challenge he didn with rapid beastmode and someone else. And then there is still that tower map he built. That was also supposed to be hard

Just anything that can challenge you is good. Some better than others but mostly all good

[golden mural]

how do i get better air control if rings maps arnt helping me?

[grim skiff]

spam aerial training packs

if you can't hit the ball, try until you can consistently touch the ball. After that you can try to score/ make ur placment better

[golden mural]

i need the subconsious air control i see some people have

idk how they get that

being in an awkward position and knowing hte most efficient pathing to make a play

thats what im missing

[grim skiff]

It's like riding a bicycle, once you learn it, you dont think about it. @golden mural

[golden mural]

that doesnt work that way i dont think

at least at the level im talking about

cuz i got the time in

3500 hours

and i hit gc at like 2800 hours

and ive just been plateuing

[grim skiff]

ah, not that bad.

gc in 2s right?#

[golden mural]

gc2 in 2s

gc1 in 3s

was my peak

but like im genuinely lost at this point

idk how to improve past this point really

[grim skiff]

can't give you much advice then, my peak in 2s was around 1600mmr chilled around gc 2 back in season 9 before i quit

i was more of a freestyler

[golden mural]

so maybe you can help

cuz my air control really isnt very good

for how much ive trained it and the rank i was in

comparatively

[robust hemlock]

I need some help in getting to and staying in champ. I've been to champ 1 a couple times this season and barely got my ten wins for the season rewards.

I'm more of a mechanical player I think but I'm not sure what I'm missing fundamentally

in 2s btw*

[grim skiff]

play a few ranked games and send me the replay files

[robust hemlock]

how do I send them?

can I on xbox or nah

[grim skiff]

ah, you can't on xbox rip

[robust hemlock]

damn

[grim skiff]

although you can record the gameplay i assume

don't know how it works

[golden mural]

i can play with u and save the files if u want

and send them to him

[robust hemlock]

I'm down if you wanna drop your rank lmao

or casual

[golden mural]

i gotchu

[grim skiff]

casual is enough to get a good idea

[golden mural]

i can do ranked

either or

[robust hemlock]

I'm d3 in 2s

[golden mural]

are u ok with playing in champ?

thats the rank ur going for anyway

[robust hemlock]

I'm not gonna do well in mid to high champ but I'm for sure down

[golden mural]

aight

sent epic

we can group call if u want

and ill screenshare

[grim skiff]

Im on a wacky ass set up right now, i dont got a heaphones and a mic right now though. Down to see the screeshare though

[golden mural]

ok

[robust hemlock]

same no mic

[grim skiff]

Im in a hotel curretly

[golden mural]

np ill just screenshare

[shrewd matrix]

Sorry i was busy. If you have mastered air roll with rings then the next step is doing it with the ball

[shrewd matrix]

Mind letting me watch aswell

[rotund moss]

can somebody coach me for free?

im hardstuck gold 1😭🙏

[worthy drum]

recoveries

[rose ivy]

Thanks is that the only one?

[worthy drum]

i think so

maybe wavedashes also

[rose ivy]

I was wondering about that….wall dashes specifically, right?

[worthy drum]

probably

[rose ivy]

Haha thanks let me know if you think of any others ☺️

[worthy drum]

ok

looking for free coaching without microphone

[fringe robin]

Walldashes are a useless mech up until ssl

[rose ivy]

Really? Aren’t they used in champ and GC?

[rose ivy]

So don’t bother with them? Cause I know I’ll never be that good

[dusky fiber]

yh u will not need it

[rose ivy]

Thanks that helps a lot, helps prioritize what I should learn and figure out whether I should change bindings

[rose ivy]

No other mechanics that would need it? Besides recovery and just turning and bounce dribbles?

[dusky fiber]

what rank are u?

[rose ivy]

Gold 3 edging on plat so want to figure out bindings so not to change them anymore

[rose ivy]

I hardly use powerslide but trying to use it more now but switched it to a new binding

[dusky fiber]

dont chase, get better with powershots, basic arials for saving, also play some 1s it helps u a lot with the basics as u get in those scenarios more often, but thats all u will rlly need to get to like dia

[rose ivy]

Thanks! Those are good tips! I don’t ball chase luckily lol. I’ve been working a lot on powershots. I know I need to work on more controlled ground skills. I’m probably the strongest with defense and saves.

[rose ivy]

But a lot of times I drive like a bat outta hell 😂

[serene basin]

DM if you need a coach :)

[rose ivy]

Oh thanks, I will save you for when I do get coaching 🙂

[dusky fiber]

dont, u need to pay there, dont ever pay for coaching if u are under ssl u will surly find people who will do it for free

[rose ivy]

Thanks I think you’re right but I always have soooo many questions and I don’t like to be annoying.

[dusky fiber]

will all be fine, thats what the server is for

[rose ivy]

Thank you 🫶

[snow wave]

hey guys im peaking rn for plat and my aerials have gotten much better so i want to learn how to do a flip reset got any tips

[dusky fiber]

can u consistently air dribble and do ceiling shots?

[snow wave]

sometimes i hav trouble with the ceiling shots but i can airdribble like 95 percent of the time

[dusky fiber]

u sure u can hit 9/10 tries with air dribbles?

[snow wave]

yup

[dusky fiber]

personally if u are plat i cant recommend getting into flip resets, u will not even need them below gc, rather focus more on the basics, also get better with air roll, u will need it aafterwards for the flip reset

[snow wave]

ok

thank u

[worthy drum]

looking for someone to teach me bounce dribbles and other main stuff to get out of gold

[rose ivy]

I know there are some YouTube videos on bounce dribbles

[worthy drum]

ik i just watched but i cant really get the hang of it

[rose ivy]

Yeah SAME lol

[dusky fiber]

u will not need bounce dribbles, in gold its a lot about chasing behind the ball, so we try to avoid that, stay more passive to get in better situations, get better with powershots for offense, people in gold cant rlly fly so if u hit a good powershots it will often be in as flying backwards is usually very hard for them, also try basic flying for saves, with this u should be good

[forest wadi]

i need a free coach for freestlying pls help me do a flip reset

[dusky fiber]

rank?

[forest wadi]

gold 2

i good

[worthy drum]

can u coach me because i think i do all that and im still in gold 1

@dusky fiber

[dusky fiber]

try to get better with it, better positionings, better powershots, dont drive too much forward, how can i help u?

[worthy drum]

can we go in a private match and youll see my mistakes

i think

[worthy drum]

we 1v1 and youll see my mistakes so i can correct them

[dusky fiber]

all the points i talked above cant be seen in a 1v1, and there is no point in a 1v1 when the rank gap is very huge

[rose ivy]

How long have you been gold 1?

[worthy drum]

i used to be gold 3 a bit ago but then i left the game and came back to it like 1 week ago and now i cant get out of gold 1

[worthy drum]

oh ok

[rose ivy]

Lol it’s only been a week, you’ll get out of it soon

[worthy drum]

😭🙏

[rose ivy]

You’re not hard stuck if it’s just been a week haha, you’ll easily get back to gold 3 after playing more 😝 How long of a break did you take?

[worthy drum]

oh thx😭 probably like 3 months

[jagged fossil]

I see where people flip into wall to gain more speed but idk it's name or how it's done if anyone can help

[north hatch]

like a wavedash?

[jagged fossil]

Nah

Like they face the wall and flip somehow into it

[zinc root]

flip cancels

[north hatch]

oh yh i get what you mean

[jagged fossil]

Not sure if that's a flip cancel

[north hatch]

they like tilt their car and flip into the wall yh?

[jagged fossil]

Yeah

[sharp ginkgo]

I need 3 silver 3s anyone down im teaching

[north hatch]

pretty sure you just airroll into the wall a tiny bit then diag flip away from wall and cancel

think thats it

[jagged fossil]

Ah alr ty

[static basin]

u mean wall dashes?

[cyan sage]

Anyone know any useful mechanics I should learn as gold 3

[jagged fossil]

No

[north hatch]

dont think so

[visual marsh]

Is it fine if i dm you and we play later?

[north hatch]

its not that important tho rly

[static basin]

the only way to gain speed on the wall is some sort of wave dash

whether its wall dashes or just wave dashing onto the wall

[jagged fossil]

Not on the wall

Going to the wall

[north hatch]

yh it doesnt really do anything

i get what you mean

just flipping onto the wall

[jagged fossil]

Ah alr

Heard it gives speed

[static basin]

yeah i mean from what you're explaining the only thing that could rly be is a wave dash

[proud reef]

yo anyone struggling with fake kickoff's

i got advice for that

[tame yew]

half flips and wavedashes

[cyan sage]

Thanks where do I find ppl same rank as me btw

[jagged fossil]

Ye that's it but it only works with the left air roll direction right? Bc with the right one I can't flip into wall in same direction

[north hatch]

should be the same for both

but airroll different way when the wall is on the other side of your car

[jagged fossil]

Yeah I face the top of my car to the wall then flip but if I try it with right side where I'm going the other way just seems impossible

Maybe it's just used more to the other side than this one

[olive elbow]

[pliant bison]

heres wachu do is

play cas and play 1v1s and do 2v2s priv with same rank as you

[cyan sage]

Yo bro lets do some gc lobbies

Gc3 div IV im on my rankup

[indigo atlas]

yeah i believe 1v1s gonna improve my game but what does priv 2v2 gonna teach me

[cyan sage]

Depends who ur opponent is

[indigo atlas]

champs like me prob

[cyan sage]

Whats ur 1s rank?

[indigo atlas]

why i cant just replace priv 2v2 with ranked 2v2

my 1s rank is p3 🙂 () () (

[cyan sage]

Because it will be very hard to only do priv 2v2 as u will have to get new lobbies everytime

And u wont rank up either if u meet champs

Playing 2s ranked is just the best option

[indigo atlas]

oh ok thanks but i believe theres other ways that will boost my perfomance in matches?

maybe some kind of training idk

[scarlet wigeon]

open net training

[cyan sage]

1s ranked is best for indivdual improvement

[indigo atlas]

i played 2v2 today and my teammate said im overmaking it and i need to calm down

prob im a ballchaser but i dont think so...

[valid tendon]

hell nah

[rigid igloo]

Plat 3

[twilit sparrow]

Someone would like to chill, watch and learn a bit at the same time from former 1850mmr player? I can help someone by screensharing my games on VC and explain / answer on questions to what I'm doing in order to beat opponents. Only one free spot for that. I would appreciate someone mature 21+ would be the best but I can make some exceptions.

[cyan sage]

I wouldn’t mind is that spot still open?

[carmine lake]

could i?

can someone coach me? i need it badly ngl.

[cyan sage]

[median crater]

how do i double flip reset

[fringe robin]

get a reset and then stall into a second or flip into a second

[median crater]

is it like a speedflip motion ?

[carmine lake]

can someone coach me? i need it badly ngl.

[fringe robin]

in a diagonal flip motion depending on where you are after the 1st reset

[fringe robin]

rank?

[idle temple]

coach me 2

[fringe robin]

rank

[carmine lake]

im gold 3 div 2 ive been stuck in gold for like 6 months bc of trash tm8s bruh

[idle temple]

gc2

[spare magnet]

Dang 6 months in gold

[carmine lake]

lol

[fringe robin]

in gold tm8s are not a problem you can get around them easily just play patiently and dont doublke comint

[fringe robin]

cant rly help with that i am gc1 haha

[carmine lake]

nah bro the tm8s i get are silvers. they always steal my setups, they own goal. and the dumb thing is that i cant get a good tm8 and i cant carry someone who steals what im doing 24/7. but i need to be coached for game sense, if i have that i could probally deal with my tm8s

[carmine lake]

did u even read it

[fringe robin]

I havent been in gold for years now but, you just need to play patient let your tm8s ballchase, they will miss, then the opponents will miss and then you dont miss and you score. Idk what else to tell you gold... is gold...

[carmine lake]

hold on i need to show u what i mean bro, i will take ur advice but it doesent go like that. my tm8s just miss and miss and miss

[carmine lake]

and very rarley i get a good tm8

[fringe robin]

I think that is up to you, cause bad tm8s exist but bro you are not good if you cant adapts to them, it is gold they are bound to miss as you are

[spare magnet]

If u were put in a 2v2 lobby with Bronze players would u win or lose?

[carmine lake]

depends bc if my tm8 double commits or hits it weird, we might get scored on. the reason why i blame tm8s alot is bc i rely on them to pass bc i never get a good setup

[spare magnet]

Do u know how hard passing is?

[fringe robin]

well in gold no one knows how to pass you need to be independant on your plays, train your ballcontrol more

[hallow jackal]

Dm me

[carmine lake]

bro im not a trash gold. i can air deibble

[fringe robin]

not even in gcs dont pass

[spare magnet]

Yet u are still in Gold.... I learnt air dribbles when I was in C2 lol

[fringe robin]

knowing smth is being able to perform it 8-9/10 in a ranked game. not 2-3/10 in free play

[grizzled cloud]

I’m a d3 peak which I’m at rn but I usually sit around d1. I can hit double resets consistently and I rotate very well. Everyone I play with says I deserve atleast c2 (including my c3+ friends) what could I do to rank up?

[fringe robin]

that is too late, air dribles are a d2-d3 mech

[hallow jackal]

If you guys wanna learn the way of ranking up DM me i am a private 1on1 coach and u an check my info in #content-promotion i'm a great coach for a great price !

[fringe robin]

GOOD F**** LUCK

[north hatch]

any tips to get out of gc2?

[grizzled cloud]

Get gud

[north hatch]

noted ty

[spare magnet]

IK, but at least I learnt them and went on to be a freestyler

[cyan sage]

You got tips to stay in gc2?

[fringe robin]

I can play with you to see if you deserver c2 i got an acc at round ther

[grizzled cloud]

[quasi arch]

how to get into lobbies that real people play in instead of bots ?

[left sonnet]

Random question when doing kickoff from the side do yall speed flip before the boost or right at it

I do it right at it

But I tend to lose those kickoffs so

[pseudo forge]

when ur on it

[short dome]

me too not consistent enough to wave dash into 2sec flip

[left sonnet]

Kk

I speed flip right into the ball on that kickoff like I don’t have time to flip a second time before reaching the ball

Is that correct ?

[short dome]

so u w8 longer

[pseudo forge]

u should speed flip then land again and flip into the ball

[short dome]

to hit it right ait landing?

[alpine tangle]

it's cuz u start kick off boost then flip

u need to flip boost as ur flipping then you'll be able to flip again

[left sonnet]

On the side ones I don’t have time to do that

[pseudo forge]

then ur doing smth wrong

[winter steppe]

dm for coaching

[left sonnet]

Hmm

[left sonnet]

I flip right at the boost

[pseudo forge]

do u know how to properly speed flip

[left sonnet]

Yes

My timing just off on the side ones

[north hatch]

anyone got any advice in gc2 to get higher

[left sonnet]

I would hope I can speed flip 😂 I’m champ

I’m just questioning the side ones

[north hatch]

land and then flip

if you dont have time to flip you went too late

[left sonnet]

Hmm ok

[north hatch]

or you boosted in the iar

[left sonnet]

Hmm ok that might be it

[north hatch]

boost down yh dont boost up or you wont land in time

[left sonnet]

I see most people turn the car the other way I do to hope that dosent matter

Most people slant there car inwards I go outwards

[north hatch]

I only speedflip one way it doesnt matter rly

[left sonnet]

Like I turn my car a little to the left on the left side

[north hatch]

just whatever is comfortbale

[left sonnet]

I use free air roll for speed flip so I do it both ways

[north hatch]

yh fairs

[rose ivy]

If right air roll is bound to throttle, could that potentially mess up a speed flip?

[left sonnet]

Why would air roll be bound to throttle

And I’m not sure I don’t think so bc when ur in the air u can’t throttle so it’ll air roll

[rose ivy]

Because it’s most comfortable for me on the triggers

[left sonnet]

I play KBM

[rose ivy]

You are FREAKY lol

[left sonnet]

😂

Example is a great example of KBM

I forget who else does I know a eu esports player does

[rose ivy]

Evample is the KING OF FREAKS lol

[left sonnet]

😂

[rose ivy]

You got balls to play KMB lol

[left sonnet]

I was gold on controller 😂

Couldn’t even Ariel

[rose ivy]

WOWWWWW 🤯🤯🤯🤯

[north hatch]

yh same tbf kbm clears

[rose ivy]

Omg I’m switching to KBM TODAY THEN

[left sonnet]

So have a ps5 elite controller laying around

[north hatch]

whats airroll bound to for you snake

[rose ivy]

I thought KBM didn’t matter on RL? Only better in other games?

[left sonnet]

Hmm

[left sonnet]

A side mouse button

[north hatch]

damn

[left sonnet]

I have both air rolls bound to side buttons

[rose ivy]

Does it make speed flips faster than on controller?

[left sonnet]

There easier to learn

[rose ivy]

Wowww

[north hatch]

play controller tho

no lie its better

i just played so much kbm i cant switch anymore

[rose ivy]

Are you KBM too?

[north hatch]

yes

[rose ivy]

You prefer it to controller?

Probably easier to map out the buttons too

[left sonnet]

U can be good on either it dosent matter

[north hatch]

yh more buttons so better control thats what i thought

but idk i chose like years ago

[rose ivy]

I wish now I had started playing RL on KBM style I don’t know if I could make the switch now

[glass scaffold]

how can i get out of gold in 1v1s

[tropic hamlet]

play the game bro there is nothing that will help you more

[glass scaffold]

ok thx

[left sonnet]

up to u

[rose ivy]

I’ve been wondering if I should get one, so that I don’t use default boost button anymore. Would really simplify my bindings finally, it’s a mess trying to move things around. Like my fingers and hands can only contort so many ways

[left sonnet]

dosent hurt to try

[rose ivy]

Fr!

[lucid escarp]

LOOKING FOR SSL GC 3 DM ME

[tropic hamlet]

calm down bro 😭

[lucid escarp]

Stfu

[left sonnet]

also are u supose to go supersonic after speed flip cause i do when doing kickoff

[tropic hamlet]

yikes 🥶🥶

[alpine tangle]

yeah maybe not all the time but yes

[rose ivy]

Do you have to hold booster the whole time? I tend to let go for a split second while flipping because it’s hard to keep holding it down with my bindings

[alpine tangle]

i wouldn't do it the whole time

do it as u do the flip and as ur landing

[rose ivy]

Wow thanks! That helps a lot

[left sonnet]

so not before the flip

[alpine tangle]

yes and before

[rose ivy]

Thanks I usually let go for a split second as I’m flipping. Others have told me I had to boost whole time and I’m glad I don’t have to, it means I don’t have to rebind my boost at least

[alpine tangle]

people do speed flips in different ways

you just gotta learn what suits ur play style

[rose ivy]

Cool! I didn’t know that thought there was only one way

[rose ivy]

Thanks soooo much I’ve been asking around for a few months now. You have me the clearest, most specific answer 🫶

[alpine tangle]

i tend to just sit in free play or do training packs on the things i lack in too improve all around

what rank are you at the moment?

[sinful maple]

hey guys i dont play rocket league but i got the pass from fortnite, how do i quickly level up to 40 in the pass

[rose ivy]

Gold 3 but I’ve been practicing speed flip since gold 1. I still can’t hit that first shot in Musty’s speed flip pack, but I can hit the other two. I think over time and hundreds of speed flips, mine will get cleaner

[alpine tangle]

play games get rewards and u should level up in no time

[sinful maple]

should i try to complet the season challenges

[alpine tangle]

to be fair speed flips aren't really necessary in gold they will help a lot but not exactly the main priority

[left sonnet]

i just gota turn my car more then im pretty good

in the beginning

[rose ivy]

I know, but I’m slow lol so wanna start learning some things early. You really demystified the boost part of a speed flip and also by saying that different people have different ways of doing it! This is something I’ve been watching YT videos and asking high levels about and still didn’t know until you said it

[alpine tangle]

pop me a dm i'll show u some clips of me speed flipping

might be able to learn easier when there's clips u can watch

[rose ivy]

SEXY! I’m there lol

[alpine tangle]

or i can coach u for a little bit

[rose ivy]

Thanks so much by the way, you’re great at explaining things in clear specific terms, not all high levels can do that ☺️

[alpine tangle]

until i have to get off for work

[rose ivy]

What region are you? I’m US west

[alpine tangle]

it dosent matter in a private match

send me a dm and we will work something out

[rose ivy]

Oh wow I thought it did

[rose ivy]

Sure thing! Thanks again! You don’t have to show me, it might be frustrating for you. But I would love to be able to ask you questions on mechanics here and there

[alpine tangle]

yeah don't worry about it ask me anything u need and i'll give u a hand

[rose ivy]

Oh awesome!! Thanks!! Love the way you explain things, looking forward to it 😜

[alpine tangle]

check ur dms

[soft skiff]

lf someone to teach me the game

[short dome]

same

[tame yew]

Do you have any tips for ceiling shots? I always hit the ceiling with my car but am too far from the ball to get the touch and flip into it or try to musty etc.

[alpine tangle]

ceiling shots are easier if you are able to pop the ball of the wall

it's easier instead of waiting a second to jump of the wall to do an ordinary air dribble and u pop jump at the same time and use your boost to hit the ceiling and make sure ur hitting the ceiling in the way the ball is dropping

[tame yew]

so like jump into the ball as both the ball and my car come off the wall?

i tried that but sometimes i accidentally hit the ball a second time and almost like pinch it on the ceiling and it messes me up

[tame yew]

What do you mean by pop?

[tropic hamlet]

he means the way you hit it off the wall a good distance from the wall

[tame yew]

so like you hit the ball more towards the goal than straight up?

[tropic hamlet]

it's a combination of near ceiling and towards the net

it's not something you can teach

[high igloo]

Well it’s quite easily teachable but a YouTube video does the job

[tropic hamlet]

it's touching a ball off the wall

[rose ivy]

Yeah I feel like ceiling shots can’t really be explained

[alpine tangle]

what rank are you?

[tame yew]

plat but i’m just trying to learn mechs tbh

i’m not too bothered about my rank

[rose ivy]

That’s so smart

[alpine tangle]

honestly in play you do not need ceiling shots to get out of it

[high igloo]

It’s just all aboht the setup

[tame yew]

I can’t tell if your being sarcastic or not

[alpine tangle]

i didn't learn either till about d2

and still i hardly did ceiling shot or air dribble in that rank

[tame yew]

yea i know but i just like learning mechs for fun i guess

[high igloo]

Nothing wrong with that

[rose ivy]

No lol I’m being serious, most people that play are so rank obsessed

[rose ivy]

When im being sarcastic ill be so silly and goofy too that you’ll know it

[tame yew]

i’m only really rank obsessed in siege tbh but that’s because there’s not really an alternative to playing normally i guess, if that makes sense

[alpine tangle]

yeah i understand i've been on the siege grind before its like nothing else 😂

[tame yew]

i’ve barely played this season

i’m still in plat 😭

[alpine tangle]

i hardly play anymore

[rose ivy]

Im also trying to learn mechs too, trying to learn them early. I can’t do ceiling shots, can only set them up so far. My friends told me just keep practicing that and eventually the aerial control will just come after many hours lol

[alpine tangle]

i peaked emerald 4 then stop playing tbf

[alpine tangle]

yes it will

[rose ivy]

What’s Seige?

[tame yew]

i was so close to hitting a ceiling musty but i messed it up so bad

[alpine tangle]

yeah

ohhh

siege is a shooting game

[tame yew]

rainbow 6 siege

[alpine tangle]

where you in a 5v5 and ur either deciding a site or attacking it

[tame yew]

best shooting game of all time

[alpine tangle]

no

not at all

cod is so much better

[tame yew]

yea but you don’t have to be smart to be good at cod

[rose ivy]

Oh cool! How is different from the others?

[rose ivy]

😂

[tame yew]

that’s why siege in my opinion is better, your game isn’t just dependant on aim and movement, although in siege aim is an important thing it doesn’t define your overall skill level. Game sense in siege combined with just average aim can separate you far from a regular player with great aim

[high igloo]

The game sense in cod is giga brain tho

[tame yew]

nah it’s just like sliding around and stimming

[rose ivy]

Wow! That sounds so awesome and fun

[high igloo]

On a basic level yes but there’s alot more too it to be good

[alpine tangle]

you do

[high igloo]

Siege is the heaviest aim based game I’ve ever played

Apart from csgo

[alpine tangle]

if only the old black ops was still a thing

[tribal swift]

Is being able to dribble at bronze good

[high igloo]

Depends what you class as dribbling

[rose ivy]

Thats impressive ☺️

[tribal swift]

I can dribble around map and stuff and I can do a front flick and back flick pop up but that is it 😅

I don’t really get to use it often though but when I do I score

[alpine tangle]

by the sounds of the way ur explaining how u do it it sounds good yeah

[high igloo]

You probably shouldn’t be bronze tho you gotta fix the rest of your gameplay up if so

[rose ivy]

Keep doing it and you will rank up real fast!

[tribal swift]

Most of the time the ball isn’t in position and I’m not good at catching it off walls

[high igloo]

I’d recommend instantly flicking all the way up till mid champ

Because people will always instantly challenge you

[alpine tangle]

yeah very true

[tribal swift]

I think it is my positioning because I am confused most of the time I feel bad when my teammate is playing offense and there is two people at their goal defending but teammate is up with them. Usually when I also go up to the two players they hit it or clear it and it’s open net

[rose ivy]

Wow interesting

[high igloo]

There shouldn’t be 2 people in the same spot

You want to be like midfield if your tm8s at the opponents net

[alpine tangle]

i'm champ 2 and still popping the ball of ur csr goes in 90% of the time

[tribal swift]

It’s mostly two people on their end of the field not necessarily the same point on the field

[rose ivy]

There shouldn’t, but it’s bronze. Even in plat and gold everyone is out of position

[high igloo]

Yeah but that doesn’t mean you want to go and even up the numbers lol

[rose ivy]

😂😂😂

[high igloo]

True people never insta flick and it’s so silly

[tribal swift]

Yeah every time I do they score

[high igloo]

They just slow drive into the 50 that will get them scored on

[rose ivy]

Yeah this season I’m working on dribbling and flicks more! Flicks are harder to control than they look

[tame yew]

idk like my aim is pretty good but i wouldn’t be able to shoot my opponents in the first place if i didn’t have that game sense of positioning and smarts yk

[high igloo]

If your tm8 is at their net stay in the midfield waiting for a good opportunity, if your tm8 is in your net don’t be piled ontop of them, if the opponents are coming at your net and your tm8 is behind you doing nothing just insta challenge

[alpine tangle]

it's not the flick that people struggle on it's the controlling on the car

[high igloo]

That’s the basic things I’d say

[tribal swift]

My aim isn’t great I miss open nets some of the time my defense is bad when it’s directly over my head and I’m driving to my opponents goal

[high igloo]

Do you play with ball cam on?

[tribal swift]

Yes

[tame yew]

you mind if i DM you with clips of my failed attempts so you could give me some advice maybe?

[high igloo]

Sure

[high igloo]

Right well I’d recommend for your rank not jumping for the ball and trying to just chase after it and single or double jump into it last second

[tribal swift]

I’m just not used to the direction I have to make my car go up and to the side when in the opposite point of view I bet if I spent hours doing stuff like that I’d get the feeling down

[tribal swift]

Yeah I usually do not jump unless my teammate is behind me

[rose ivy]

I still miss so many open nets, I’ve been practicing different ground shot and striker training packs and they help a lot so you can get better at shooting the ball from anywhere on the field

[alpine tangle]

if you'd like to dm me i could show u a clip of positioning

[tribal swift]

I can fast aerial but I lose control mid air and usually miss the ball or hit it in random spots on my car like the bottom of it or like a random corner

[rose ivy]

I think so too! I know it has to be in certain position on car for you to flick it properly

[tribal swift]

I got 100% multiple times in a row on All Star Aerial but my first hit never went into the net without a bounce

[alpine tangle]

in the lower ranks don't use air roll as much as you don't have that good of air control yet i'd say

[high igloo]

I wouldn’t even do those all star training things

They are so janky and time consuming

There’s loads of aerial packs with hundreds of easy shots you can spam over and over instantly

[tribal swift]

I can half flip too and wave dash off walls into the ground but that is it mechanics wise

[rose ivy]

Believe it or not Heatseeker made me really good at saves. My defense is my strongest thing by far, I’m better with saves than a lot of my higher plat friends

[alpine tangle]

and what rank are you?

[tribal swift]

That’s the extent of my mechanics overall

[high igloo]

That can really throw you off with the ball curving tho lol

[alpine tangle]

i've never seen a bronze player being able to do that?

[high igloo]

Consistency is everything

[alpine tangle]

what do you struggle with that looses you the games?

[tribal swift]

Idk I can do what I can do everytime but it’s just limited in the amount of different mechanics I can do

[rose ivy]

I know but somehow it translated well into regular….maybe it’s the quick reaction time and following the ball with your eyes

[high igloo]

Are you on the game rn Jackson

[tribal swift]

Mechanics list:

• dribble
• setup dribble of bounce
• front flick
  -back flick (pop up)
• half flip
• wave dash off wall into ground
• fast aerial (but point of contact is never the same)

That is all I know

[tribal swift]

I am not I won’t be able to play for a few hours

[high igloo]

Learn hook shots, bounce dribbles, and practise power shots. These are the greatest tools imo @tribal swift

In terms of offense

Defense shadow saving, backboard defense

[rose ivy]

Can you Aerial? I couldn’t aerial until gold 1

[tribal swift]

I can bounce dribble but usually only once or twice in a row

[high igloo]

You will only ever need 1-3 anyways dw

Keep your arsenal small but consistent if you wanna rank up fast

[tribal swift]

Yeah I would say my defense is my worst part I can aerial but when it comes to jumping off walls and hitting balls close to the wall I whiff almost every time

Anything in the corner is bad I usually end up passing it to opponent

[north zenith]

bounce physics

[tribal swift]

My actual offense is good I can pass and stuff but my counter attack is usually poor outside of setting it up with a wall to air dribble but without the dribble and usually just a single flip into it to clear it

[north zenith]

determine the speed of the ball and what angle its coming from befiore it hits the wall

[tribal swift]

My defense is also bad outside of me knowing how to fast aerial

[high igloo]

Don’t play offense in the corner

But you want to play defense in the corner

That’s the rule

[tribal swift]

I usually play offense at mid or close to other team net

[pallid seal]

Any tips for a d3 player to get to champ

[high igloo]

What’s your strong points and weak points

[pallid seal]

In 2s solo q

[tribal swift]

Oh I usually try to counter attack and clear but I have a lot of issues reading the bounces and rolls off corners

[north zenith]

insta flick since diamonds just kmonnkey challenge opr even low 50

[rose ivy]

Seriously try heatseeker, it helped up my defense a lot

[tribal swift]

I never thought of defense or 50/50 maybe?

[high igloo]

Always hit the ball to the corner on defense

Well not always but most times

[tribal swift]

Usually what happens is other team hits it hard at corner and it either rolls up the backboard in front of the goal or takes a bounce in front of net

That’s where I am useless

[rose ivy]

You know I won’t even go in corners for defense, I still will wait until it’s out cause I’m so scared it’ll go past me into the goal 😬

[north zenith]

nice lotus keep doing that

since reading those corner bounces takes alot of play time and gamesense

[rose ivy]

Thanks, yeah corners are too tricky for me, I let everyone else battle it out there and wait

[tribal swift]

Yes

I usually just do a single jump and feather boost for defense and fast aerial for offense

But I don’t get many offense opportunities it’s 50/50 a lot

[rose ivy]

Wow you’re so good at bronze you’ll be even better, definitely work on dribbles and flicks. I wish I had worked on them before this season

[rose ivy]

Are you sure you’re bronze lol?

[tribal swift]

Yes

[north zenith]

a week ago is wild

ive been playing since april of 2022

[tribal swift]

Unfortunately 😞

[pallid seal]

Strengths - powershots, pressure, boost management ( I collect small boost and keep apply pressure when in offense) can read wall rebounds (50/50 with backboard shots but can definitely read it), passing the ball on the ground of off a wall, consistent with ground shots

Weakness - challenging ball, saving in the air or in awkward positions, effective/consistent shots in the air, 50/50 with my rotations, 50/50 with my IQ,

What I do to try to get better - free play, 1s ranked (P3 div 3), training packs

I solo q in 2s, I have got to champ one 2 times this seasons very recently but I can’t somehow stay in there

[north zenith]

i can get you in champ but my smruf is too high lol

i just hit gc2 in 2s but am low c3 in 3s, it feels like nobody has a brain in these games its so difficult to play

[north hatch]

yh 3s can be long

if you cant find tm8s to queue with then try play passive and let randoms make mistakes and dont full commit

[forest wadi]

Bro I'm gold but I shouldn't be bc I way better than most of these golds and overall just need a diamond to play with

[cyan sage]

wtf i just won a ranked 3s game 10-4 and scored 6 goals

[cyan sage]

i doubt you are diamond if you are gold

[modest loom]

anybody coaching for free?

anybody got any tips for getting used to directional air roll?

i js set it as a keybing to get better but its so hard to use rn

[slow pumice]

Learn half flips

[cyan sage]

i can do it

[charred fulcrum]

Lowkey just go from wall to wall doing a right/left roll back and forth till you get used to it no touching another wall or floor it's just practice

[robust dagger]

trying to get out of plat rn but every tm8 is insufferable, not going up for passes, sitting in goal, whiffs (acceptable), stupid booming missing easy saves, jumping over me to hit the ball im hitting, bumping me to hit the ball, i can go on all day

[dusky fiber]

Its plat what do u expect? Try and adapt to it and u will be good

[robust dagger]

adapt how?

also idk im still new to the game but i been grinding and i compete in diamond lobbies all the time w friends

[fringe robin]

are you frinends like smurfs cause i can keep up in ssl if my tm8s is Zen

What’s a great way to get better mechanically?

And an even more specified question, how can I implement flip cancels to do things like maktuf’s and etc?

Since I’m asking this it’s also not hard to tell that i’m not in GC yet, so any tips to help educate me of a better chance in succeeding ranks? I know i’m worried a little about mechanics when it shouldn’t be such a huge problem, but I feel as if there’s more to it.

Maktuf is just a flashy mechanic. It's nothing benefiticial with it. If u want to rank up, learn double or triple resets rather than maktuf. If u just wanna show of, then learn maktuf

[fringe robin]

double reset are equally useless

[fringe robin]

Learn flip resets, airdribles, 45deg flicks, recoveries, speedflip kickoffs and how to use a speedflip in general.

All of this assuming you are a c2-c3 pushing for gc

[formal obsidian]

no, because u kinda fake your shot

[fringe robin]

Whats your rank mate?

[cyan sage]

only useless in low elo

if your shot has good placement and power you should be able to score without doing the most. in probably champ and below

[fringe robin]

even is ssl you wont find much use for it but if you are like gc3-ssl and you have masterd everything else (mechs and possitioning) sure go for it

double resets are also easy to save cause they are slow

[cyan sage]

its situational tbf, like a lot of mechanics

[fringe robin]

yes, but the occasions you need it are like 1/100 matches in ssl

[cyan sage]

if you say so

[fringe robin]

most if the times if you cant score, it wont be because you cant double reset yk what i mean

[forest wadi]

i quit

so i came back

[small sleet]

how good is free air roll? discovered wave dashing + free air roll is very nice but not worth changing my couple years muscle memory for it

i have my r air roll on r1 and my l air roll l1 and power slide on square

[cobalt pumice]

Dribbling is all about practice, that being said it's not necessarily a mechanic you need in order to rank up

[cobalt pumice]

i'm the same, air roll right r1, air roll left l1 and power slide is square, also have air roll on square lol

[small sleet]

oh nice what’s your rank

[cobalt pumice]

GC1 atm

[small sleet]

i’m kinda close

c3 div 2 or 3

[cobalt pumice]

damn that is close, i find playing safer and playing as the second man really helped me get over the C3 hellhole

i'd also avoid teaming with any randoms you meet as weird as that sounds xD

[lone tide]

Yoo someone can help me understand how to diagonal flip cancel correctly I did it for so many times but still cannot figure what is the problem

[fringe robin]

sure

[small sleet]

yeah i’m thinking that too cuz idk how to flip reset speed flip and all that tbh i jus play casual mostly

[cobalt pumice]

you don't need it mate, i rarely do mechanical stuff. trust the process of booming clears and not over committing 🙂

[cyan sage]

no dont boom the ball mindlessly unless its an open goal shot

you can do much more with the ball than without it

[cobalt pumice]

booming clears are far better than trying to take control of the ball in front of your own goal area, once you have space you should be controlling it.

[raw ruin]

helping anyone with mechs or gamesense

[zinc root]

well sometimes i can get a 2v1 when i take control infront of my goal area, its risky, but if you trust yourself it could cause opponent to overcommit and you could flick it/ pass it to your teammate and easily demo the other opponent and get an open net

[raw ruin]

in 2v1 situations you want to delay and not try to panic challenge the ball so you can buy time for your 1st man to get back. but if they other team creates to big of a space between them and the ball and you have an opportunity to clear id go for it

[twilit bobcat]

yo

do u guys think playing so much 1s can make me so good and improve a lot my mechanics and shadow defense?

[dusty raven]

If you play 1s with mindset of learning from your mistakes, it can surely help you a lot. Though its not the only way of doing that

[raw ruin]

people that main 1s struggle in twos because of rotations and what not.

theyre playing like they would in 1s which is bad

theres a healthy balance

[dusty lintel]

$10 cashapp if someone helps me get the champ banner reward

[serene basin]

DM if you need a coach :)

[fringe robin]

Well i should say that if it is not infron of your net you should controll it (on the sides) cause most people just go for it instalty so you get an easy flick around them

[cobalt pumice]

if it's on the sides you most likely cant get a booming clear so it would be irrelevant but yeah

[crystal sigil]

I am a diamond one and i want to get better at not ballchasing can anyone help me?

[fringe robin]

just dont chase the ball when your tm8s is near it...

it is that simple hahha

[indigo crow]

does anyone know how to 360 dribble

[twilit bobcat]

does anyone know what's the best rotation in d3 lobby's ?

do i always need to rotate to back post or nah ?

[fringe robin]

depents, in d3 yes later you can judje when you need to go fully back of just get behind your tm8

[fringe robin]

you mean with airroll

[indigo crow]

no on the ground

[fringe robin]

oh

[indigo crow]

like with powerslide reverse and forward

[fringe robin]

oh you said drible mb

[fringe robin]

with a bit of turing yeah

[indigo crow]

mhm

i cant do it

i get the first part but it always falls off

[fringe robin]

well i am no expert so icant rly get into detail

[indigo crow]

but can you do a 360 dribble

[fringe robin]

some tiems XD

i have pulled it off in a ranked match

but i just felt it dont rly know the mech

[forest wadi]

some tips i cant do a reset

[fringe robin]

do you have good aircontroll

I have been asked on how to rest by a plat who considered a no airoll air drible a clip

[worthy drum]

can someone help me im gold 1 div 3 i just reached but everytime i play i go back to div 2 i dont know what im doing wrong

[forest wadi]

i cant airoll

[hard ferry]

Set airroll left and right keybinds

[forest wadi]

i ave#

have

[fringe robin]

learn how to do a 80% court 10 touch airdribles with freestyle spins and then attempt a reset

you need rly good car control for them

[hard ferry]

Oh I thought u meant u literally didn't have it binded

[fringe robin]

if you wanna use them, if you just want to get the reset and do nothing with it it is rly easy

[hard ferry]

Alr mb ye just free style

U can do rings doesn't that help with airroll control?

[fringe robin]

yes

if you do it will full air roll

[hard ferry]

Do a rings map practice air rolling and air control

[fringe robin]

yes

[hard ferry]

Prolly will make u feel rlly comfortable in general to air control

[sick sierra]

Can someone tell me how offense in 2s works? I feel like scoring a goal without waiting for the enemy to make a blunder is impossible.

[cyan sage]

Are you looking on how to make money online with digital marketing, Dm me for more information!

[mortal quail]

Counter attacks are just more efficient
But generally offense works by pressure. Rotating infield while mainting boost. DONT rotate all the way back for boost when on offense, grab pads, steal boost, mid boost etc. Eventually too much pressure will result in goals

Just be careful not to overcommit or make a bad touch

[sick sierra]

Ok, but if I have control of the ball and one of them goes for me and the other one stays back, what do I do to not lose the ball to one of them?

[mortal quail]

That is a general defensive move
One challenges to get you off the ball. That is where you learn how to keep possession by making it awkward for the 2nd player to hit. But that also means you probably cant keep pressure as if the 2nd player can take the ball. You need to regroup and try again

They should work for every ball on defense, once they get it back, its your turn to do the same

[sick sierra]

ok thanks

[jolly charm]

I've been playing for 2 years now and I'm still at plat 3, anyone got any mechanics or general tips to rank up

[hasty spire]

whats your current 1v1s rank?

[idle temple]

Howbmany hours u can be playing for 5 years but if u barely play ofc u wont get better

[jolly charm]

Plat 3

[hasty spire]

and your 2s rank is plat 3 aswell?

[jolly charm]

Yes

[hasty spire]

thats weird, do you have any ideas why you lose or why you cant rank up?

with that 1v1s rank you should already be high diamond in 2s

[jolly charm]

My tm8s are cheeks

[hasty spire]

that can be a case for some games but they are not the reason you can be stuck in a rank

[jolly charm]

I'll find a good tm8 and when they leave my other teammates ar terrible

[cobalt pumice]

that tells me that you're relying on a good teammate, when you get a bad teammate you need to be able to work out a game plan to win, like playing safer, committing less etc

[hasty spire]

did you peak above p3 or no?

[jolly charm]

Yes, I peaked at d2 abt a year ago

[hasty spire]

so you have a general idea of rotation and positioning

[jolly charm]

Kinda

[hasty spire]

you might have a hard time adapting to your mate

[jolly charm]

I solo queue aswell

[hasty spire]

solo q shouldnt be a huge probme as long as you understand proper roatations and positioning

im guessing most of your conceded goals are when you double commit right?

[jolly charm]

No, it's usually 50/50s when I concede

[hasty spire]

one thing that works in most ranks are fake challenges

[jolly charm]

Never tried that before

[hasty spire]

its a effective way of regaining possession

[jolly charm]

Btw what rank are you

[hasty spire]

gc 1

[jolly charm]

Wow

[hasty spire]

anyway yeah if instead of taking 50/50s you should fake it and try to control the ball after they give it up

also when talking about ball control, train soft touches, dribbles and powerslide cuts

[jolly charm]

Where should I find a good teamate

[hasty spire]

with these things you wont need one, but if you really think teammates are the reason you are stuck you can look for one in #looking-for-group

[jolly charm]

Alright thanks bro

[brisk orbit]

any keyboard warrios willing to teach me helis?

[worldly scaffold]

hi, I’m blocked to d2 from months, my problem it’s that I miss the balls and I’m not much good in aerial, I have 400 hours of gameplay, do you have any suggestions for me?

[kindred hedge]

do u play on pc?
