gameplay-tips

[high igloo]

You don’t need ones to get gc in 2s tbh you are definitely making really big mistakes

[obtuse sundial]

Can someone help me with ground to air dribbles

[frozen gazelle]

@icy nimbus can prob help with that

[high igloo]

Get the ball on the roof of your car maintain speed of the ball double jump without ball cam on and jobs done

[frozen gazelle]

I need help with kickoffs

I'm plat1 now

[high igloo]

You just need to look at the opponent

[frozen gazelle]

How do I get better 50's

[high igloo]

Well most cases you just wanna be hitting it in the centre of the ball

[frozen gazelle]

before, I had my champ friends 1v1 me

now they not on most of the time

[cyan sage]

looking for someone for online freeplay event

[lyric anvil]

i someone to help me w the online freeplay stuff

[frozen gazelle]

@lyric anvil

[frozen gazelle]

@cyan sage

Easy.

[icy nimbus]

What are you having problems with?

[frozen gazelle]

Also for season challenges, I finished all of my challenges but under the "Complete 22 Free Season Challenges to earn the Season Reward" it says I still got 0/22

Bru, there no platinum 1 's using the group thingy

Only plat 2's and gold 3's

[high igloo]

Just run it with a plat 2

I feel like all those ranks are so similar down there

[runic sinew]

in my dreams im plat 1 if that counts

[frozen gazelle]

Yh but I don't wanna make them get a demotion bc of me

[frozen gazelle]

What ur acc rank??

[high igloo]

You will be like the exact same skill as them I don’t think anyone could even differentiate a p1 and 2

[runic sinew]

none

my highest ever was like silver something

[frozen gazelle]

A p1 is a player that plays like a gold, p2 plays like a p3 who plays like a d1

Das the difference

[high igloo]

A p1 plays like a p2 who plays like a p3 who plays like a d1 who plays like a etc

[frozen gazelle]

this literally me

[high igloo]

So a p1 plays like a pro

[frozen gazelle]

Yes

[high igloo]

Easy

I’d play with you but I really hate playing with low ranks

[runic sinew]

how to hit ball?

[frozen gazelle]

Don't u see the vids where a rank does different mechanics and once they get to plat, they music goes try hard mode and they show clips of people who play like pros

[frozen gazelle]

do u got an alt?

Or do u wanna 1v1?

[high igloo]

My lowest account is d3

[frozen gazelle]

Lucky

[high igloo]

My highest one is gc3

[frozen gazelle]

Can u train me to d1?

[high igloo]

Can’t really train low ranks

[elder light]

playing in lower ranks is horrible

[high igloo]

I can tell you what you probably need to do

[high igloo]

I don’t mind it if my tm8 goes afk and I’m peaking

Cause then I can just clip farm

[frozen gazelle]

Is there a way to download replays on Nintendo?

[elder light]

they are on the ball at the weirdest times man

2s is okay but 3s is just horrible

[high igloo]

You would have to record it with your phone and upload to yt

So like play a game go into replay and record

Idk if they have the thing ps do of like save last 5 min gameplay

[cyan sage]

is trading still a thing?

[high igloo]

Oh 3is unplayable

Even at gc

You might aswell just sit in net

[elder light]

i tried playing with 2 of my plat friends

[frozen gazelle]

Technically if u count the in-game trade ups ...

[elder light]

i did not have a good time.

[high igloo]

You can’t even carry

[elder light]

its impossible bro

[cyan sage]

so i cant give other people items

[frozen gazelle]

Nope

[cyan sage]

bruh

[elder light]

all of the people in the lobby just rush the ball

[high igloo]

What rank are you on your main?

[elder light]

no way to control it

[frozen gazelle]

How many duplicates do u have and what r they?

[elder light]

gc1 getting gc2 this szn !

[cyan sage]

idk

[high igloo]

In 3s?

[elder light]

nonono in 2s

i dont really play 3s

[high igloo]

I was worried for you

[elder light]

i would rather die than solo q 3s

[high igloo]

Gc2 is actually a nice rank

People seem to like get a better grasp of the game and it’s not unplayable

[elder light]

i have always said from gc2 u get good at the game

[high igloo]

Like they suck but they will actually try make the game easier for you to a degree

Unlike the other ranks that just care about hitting the ball

[elder light]

yeah in gc1 they still touch the ball to touch the ball

[elder light]

yeah they are l;ess on the ball but just overal annoying

[high igloo]

Nothing more annoying then having a clear better position to go for the ball and your tm8 just comes in cause they want to hit it

[frozen gazelle]

I got 2 tw ebb'n flow, 2 pink loco-commotion, 2 burnt sienna sand scape, 2 pink spot drop, 2 grey streamix

That's js decals

[high igloo]

Or cause they see your shot as a position to go for a freestyle lmao

[elder light]

that is so annoying

luckily doesnt happen often

and when it happens most of the time they score

[high igloo]

It’s more of like a diamond-champ thing I think

[frozen gazelle]

Bru, I got 3 8ball wheels, and they limited so I can't trade up

[elder light]

just dive at u going for a reset

[elder light]

yeah nah that is horrible

[frozen gazelle]

Bro istg all my duplicates r limiteds

[runic sinew]

im being so fr how do yall play with ball cam

[elder light]

its better.

[high igloo]

I was playing a ssl tourney yesterday and I had a triple reset and like the perfect shot to score it and my tm8 came in and boomed it off bb

[elder light]

u need both but u need to learn ball cam

[elder light]

no way in ssl lol how

[runic sinew]

I literally lose all depth perception when using ball cam

[elder light]

i see sometimes my ssl mate get put with like c3s

[elder light]

change ur camera settings

[high igloo]

SSL Tourneys aren’t very competitive tbh but like some people are just so greedy

[elder light]

everybody wants the tag

[high igloo]

I have like 4 pink tags

[frozen gazelle]

Someone explain y I got 2 Honda Civic type R wheels

[runic sinew]

to what

[elder light]

W

[high igloo]

And I’m not even ssl

[elder light]

to see the ball better

[runic sinew]

I can see the ball very good

[high igloo]

Ball cam is like easier to see then no ball cam no?

[runic sinew]

I cant move my car to get the ball

[elder light]

u were gc3 right?

[runic sinew]

when using ball cam

[high igloo]

Like you can’t see anything when the ball flys above you

[elder light]

u just need to practice

[high igloo]

I’m gc3 yeah

[elder light]

nice man

hope ill get there some day

[high igloo]

Well gc2 rn

[elder light]

yeah but rn is harder

u got any tips on resets?

[high igloo]

Only got about 20 games aswell

[high igloo]

I’d need to see a clip

[elder light]

i have 0 lol

[high igloo]

W

Free play grinder or just not been on

[elder light]

https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/jfxXKR2NQSE5FzkSQ?invite=cr-MSwzYWIsMzAwMjUxMDE2LA i hit this today

i have been on but mostly playing cas or 1v1 with friends

i can send it in gameplay highlights if it not works

[high igloo]

Only thing for that is i would probably go for a reset the touch before you did

[hexed fjord]

can someone teach me how to air dribble with air roll?

[high igloo]

Cause leaving it late is good and all but a better defender will probably save that unless they are starved

[elder light]

the problem is if i reset there i lose control

[high igloo]

In 2s anyways

[frozen gazelle]

Is discord in the background, is that how u get people's names and pfp on the upper left hand side?

[elder light]

yeah nah it was a priv 1v1 against my friend not really trying

[frozen gazelle]

Also, never heard of medal.tv

[high igloo]

Do you have any clips where you like fail lol

Cause there isn’t really much tips I can give when you absolutely sauced the opponent

[frozen gazelle]

XD

Technically I have a tip: do exactly what u did over and over

[elder light]

not really

[elder light]

i have more clips of resets but not of fails

[high igloo]

I’m actually messing around on controller rn if you are on

Trying to learn how to click the buttons

[elder light]

nah man i gtg to sleep in a bit

are u kbm?

[high igloo]

Yep

[elder light]

thats crazy

i never understand how people can be good on kbm

[high igloo]

You can dm if you want I’ll have a look

[elder light]

alr alr

[high igloo]

True that’s why I’m bad

[frozen gazelle]

can u 1v1 me so I can get better?

[elder light]

gc3 is good man

[high igloo]

You would not get better playing me

[frozen gazelle]

Why?

[high igloo]

The skill difference is too much for improvement

You need like a diamond/ low champ

[frozen gazelle]

I've 1v1ed a champ 2 and I got better..

[high igloo]

I’m quite a bit better than a champ 2

It would just be a freestyle session

[frozen gazelle]

Who here is a diamond?

[hexed fjord]

can someone teach me how to air dribble with air roll?

[frozen gazelle]

@icy nimbus

Should I ball chase for 1's?

[icy nimbus]

Just take hours if practice with air roll

[hexed fjord]

ok

[icy nimbus]

If you're decent with air roll you should be able to do it

[elder light]

gc3 against like a plat seems fair

[icy nimbus]

Lf help with rotations:)

[high igloo]

What you need help with

Like back post or just general positioning

[icy nimbus]

General tbh.

Like I got good mechs. But I struggle with positioning

Lf help with rotations

[silent sandal]

can someone help me become better

[icy nimbus]

With what

[silent sandal]

like

air dribble

[icy nimbus]

Sure

[silent sandal]

really

[icy nimbus]

Dms

[silent sandal]

alr

add me'

[plush peak]

I keep getting distroyed in rocket league by my friend can anyone help me get better because I am getting demolished rn (btw I’m on Nintendo switch)

[high igloo]

Do you have any gameplay

[lucid dragon]

How do i get to diamond?

[icy nimbus]

Was hoping we could do a cas

[high igloo]

At its half 2 for me so maybe not today

[icy nimbus]

Oh damn

[high igloo]

Actually ima just not sleep tonight my schedule has been too clapped

I can play in a bit

[lucid dragon]

same

[high igloo]

I have so much to do tomorrow and waking up at 2pm just ain’t gonna cut it

[icy nimbus]

I feel ya 😭

[upbeat pulsar]

I want the Shokunin GXT, but with my skill level, I don't think I can get anywhere close to level 40. Any advice for a complete newcomer?

[frank dragon]

Hey, i'm on KBM and everytime i try to do a speed flip my flip angle goes to 45º if i just hold the directional key OR the air roll key, and goes to 63 if i press both (which is what i've been told to do but it doesn't seem to work) and i just can't get that 30º flip no mather what i press, any tips?

[high igloo]

You don’t need skill to level up

You can get level 300 being bronze

[upbeat pulsar]

Well, I can barely drive the car, let alone pull off anything close to an accurate shot.

[icy nimbus]

Play more you probably have like 30 minutes on the game

[frank dragon]

just spend sometime on free play, you will get how to drive pretty quickly

[icy nimbus]

Just @ me when you get on

[high igloo]

@icy nimbus

[icy nimbus]

Ight dm your epic

[upbeat pulsar]

...I genuinely cannot get a hang of this thing. I can't even get enough points to earn any damn XP.

[trim nebula]

You can’t just hop on and be a pro at this game.

[high igloo]

I dm you

[shell thorn]

you'll get there time, maybe go to freeplay and hit the ball around a bit.

[upbeat pulsar]

I can't even touch the ball 90% of the time.

[shell thorn]

maybe just driving around is the move 😭

[upbeat pulsar]

That won't progress the pass, now will it?

[wild leaf]

How can I have better positioning than my opponent. I always notice in 1v1 sometimes I will just get blown out on open nets im gold 2 in 1s

[shell thorn]

you can't get level up because you don't get XP due to too low amount of points. how do you get more points? you hit the ball. now if you can't hit the ball, your car control is quite literally nonexistent. now, how do you get better at that, sir? think about basic logic before making incompetent comments.

[wild leaf]

Can someone please tell me

[thorny sandal]

Xp level has no relation to skill. Play the game and complete challenges and you’ll level up.

[thorny sandal]

Play limited time modes

Or rumble it’s ez points nd challenges

[thorny sandal]

Your argument is slightly collapsing on itself as your response was completely incompetent. U speak about “logic” yet the logical thing to do is leave it alone instead of taking time out of ur day to make him feel bad for seeking help. Do better.

Sad to see so much toxicity in a community that used to be so good

[wild leaf]

Is anyone skilled enough to answer my question

[thorny sandal]

Get better defense

And you shouldn’t be waiting in ur net 😭

Fake chal

[shell thorn]

his comment was in response to me trying to satisfy his call for help. sure, i delivered toxicity, but did you even care to read? do better.

[thorny sandal]

Let’s hear ur response idi

[thorny sandal]

Toxicity when you’re not even ssl

Not do better, GET better

And pls leave the gameplay tips section you’re not helping anyone ❤️

[shell thorn]

switching topics to something completely irrelevant shows your intelligence level.

[thorny sandal]

Intelligence level? I’m studying chemical engineering at an Ivy League university. Please message me id love to enlighten you on many things your pea brain can’t even comprehend.

The fact that you bring up my intelligence out of nowhere shows ur projecting your insecurities

Basic psychology brother

[shell thorn]

also extremely ironic when you're boosting. it's quite literally the definition of falsely "helping" someone. me giving tips is objectively more helpful than anything boosting will do.

[thorny sandal]

I’m a coach bro 😂😭

Do you really think using italics and proper punctuation on discord makes you seem more intelligent bro?

Stop projecting your insecurities onto me and go get smarter, and better at this game

Embarrassing for you, seriously.

[shell thorn]

and what relevance does that have? to bring that up certainly doesn't help you, mister "rlcsproboost" lol. you're studying for a degree yet can't comply with the most basic ToS.

[thorny sandal]

Message me.

[upbeat pulsar]

Well the main issue is that there's apparently a minimum score threshold, and I can barely maneuver the car. I appreciate the advice, RLC, but there's only so much I can try before once again getting scared off and abandoning my prospects again. I might just use my Christmas money to buy my way to level 40 at this rate.

[shell thorn]

it's to emphasize enough for you to understand what i'm saying since you clearly couldnt earlier when you abandoned your argument.

[thorny sandal]

Please recall when I abandoned my argument. I’ll be waiting.

[shell thorn]

talk about a time waster. use your rehearsed argument here, and you may finally find relevance.

[visual pine]

DMs for open fun

[thorny sandal]

Relevance in what? Relevance? Relevance holds no relevance in our situation let alone what you’re saying. I like your argumentative style, you say things to confuse the other into thinking you’re too intelligent to argue with. Not gna work on everyone, however do you sir.

[thorny sandal]

Get a job and make me a sandwich woman

Bro is literally a dude tryna use the catfish method

Nobody is stupid

[shell thorn]

rank has nothing to do with my justified toxicity, nor with my clear explanation; therefore, utterly irrelevant.

[shell thorn]

also abandonment as you never once backed this up #gameplay-tips message

[thorny sandal]

Your toxicity is unjustified, YOU justified it with your anger and insecurities. It seems this argument will go on & on without end so I’m going to leave it here. Have a great day.

[cyan sage]

uh its not really about better positioning than your opponent

its more about like

learning to position based on what theyre doing

[raw ruin]

totally a real rlcs pro! @thorny sandal

hey kitten @cyan sage

[timber abyss]

🥶

[primal loom]

anyone able to hop in a vc with me and help me learn or practice my wall to airs? I would like to be able to control it more and be able to freestyle eventually

[solemn knot]

im kbm, any tips for me to get out of plat

[harsh siren]

What is it called when someone sets up an air dribble but hits/dribbles the ball after coming off of the ceiling to keep a flip to use when they get closer to the goal

[real rose]

a ceiling shot

[harsh siren]

Thank you

[timid vine]

Rotation

[gritty sonnet]

Game sense

And that doesn't change whatever you play on

[primal loom]

by gamesense @gritty sonnet meant, hitting the ball towards where your teammate is rotating/not where the opponent is, taking time to properly rotate and give your teammate space but be there incase something goes wrong, be ready to hit the ball and challenge if needed, dont go for the ball on offense if your teammate hasnt rotated back yet

[cyan sage]

Well said

[primal loom]

these are just the tips that helped me get out of plat from my gc friends lol

thanks for the kudos tho

[cyan sage]

np!

[solemn knot]

agreed, i feel i have some game sense but on the other hand my teamates (which are randoms) lack this

[white sable]

They are your rank for a reason tho, their gamesense is probably not that far off yours. you are probably focusing on their flaws vs your own

[real rose]

youre always going to think the dumb stuff you do has a mastermind plan behind it because you actually planned it, from your tm8s pov you just look like youre trolling them, and when they do something dumb they beleive its for the best of the team

[merry wasp]

yo who is grand champ in up that can help me with some stuff?

[real rose]

most of your tm8s arent trying to lose yk

[merry wasp]

or anyone have a plat or gold ma

[native prism]

Who would start ranked to lose

[copper lance]

random tm8

[real rose]

exactly

[native prism]

And why would they?

[gritty sonnet]

Many more things, but that is some of it

[copper lance]

intentionally lleaves the mattch or stay afk or score own goals or bump u

[native prism]

That only happens in gold or sum

[copper lance]

plat

[native prism]

😭

[real rose]

happens in gc as well sometimes

[copper lance]

i got demoted from diamond to plat just for this

[native prism]

Play solo

Or js play with a friend

[copper lance]

understandable

[gritty sonnet]

That isn't that they go into ranked to loose

Most of the times

[copper lance]

my friends think this game is easy so they play valo

[native prism]

Usually happens when they flame you tho

[copper lance]

out 10 matches 5-6 matches are with these random tm8s😭

[gritty sonnet]

What rank are you?

[gritty sonnet]

Okay, do you even know what I mean?

[copper lance]

nope (elaborate sir)

[native prism]

Js play solo

[copper lance]

solo is boring man

[native prism]

Makes you improve

[copper lance]

but i really want a team play 😭

[native prism]

Maybe you should try to play with a friend

[gritty sonnet]

I mean that if they bump you, it can be a honest mistake or that you have irritated them, if they stay afk (not whole match like a bit of the match) then maybe just had to do something just after they started tye match, if they leave early on then they are either mad at you or mad at themselves (so bad mentality basically) and when they score own goal again it can be an honest mistake or that they have given up (there can be more reasons)

[gritty sonnet]

I don't think any plat knows how to do that

[high igloo]

No team plays until gc2 unfortunately

[gritty sonnet]

What?

[high igloo]

People don’t play as a team until around that rank

[copper lance]

broooo that's the reason, i am not toxic so i wont do anything that irritates or make my tm8 mad, they just go afk randomly, disconnects suddenly, and then all of sudden it becomes 2v2 to 2v1

[copper lance]

i agree, i want a team play but not yet skilled for it

[gritty sonnet]

I mean when it's common sure, but Don't say at all

[high igloo]

Yeah you may get like a pass from a tm8 once every 15 games in diamond

Probably won’t go to you tho

[gritty sonnet]

I mean I pass all the time

I am a playmaker

[high igloo]

Im just like giving him the reality of pass plays in solo q

If you wanna hit cool team plays party Que is the place to be

[gritty sonnet]

Yeah, from other people sure, doesn't stop yourself

[high igloo]

No point passing yourself

It’s a bad play in low ranks most of the time

[copper lance]

redirects?

[gritty sonnet]

?, how did you make that conclusion

[high igloo]

When you are a low ranked player
The chance your pass is accurate is low

The Chance they then score the pass is low

Then chance the opponents don’t intersect the pass and clap it into your net is low

[gritty sonnet]

I mean that you start it, if other people doesn't start, you just have to start it

[high igloo]

But then again it depends on what we consider a passing play

[high igloo]

?

[gritty sonnet]

Pass the ball, bump the opponent, ect (anything with more than 1 player) just taking a good 50 can be a good passing play

[high igloo]

Im on about like a proper mid field pass

[gritty sonnet]

Well that is only true if you Don't practice it ofc

[gritty sonnet]

Okay, then I do that A LOT

[high igloo]

Yeah but it still relies on your tm8

And you can’t really rank up relying on tm8s

Just spam solo plays

[gritty sonnet]

Not fun

[gritty sonnet]

That is just bc your either making a hard pass or making a bad pass

[high igloo]

No it’s because low ranked players aren’t good

And can’t shoot properly

[gritty sonnet]

That goes both ways, so it's a bad pass

[high igloo]

What lol

[rocky blaze]

tbf i kinda agree with ryan

team play doesnt rly work until champ or gc

[high igloo]

Im just saying if you wanna rank up focus on doing solo plays

[gritty sonnet]

I would say not many people would agree with me, it's just better with "solo plays" Says most people

[high igloo]

Im not saying passing can’t work it’s just objectively gonna work less

It’s definitely fun to go for tho

[gritty sonnet]

What rank are you?

[high igloo]

Gc3

[gritty sonnet]

Then your not thinking broadly enough

[rocky blaze]

ryan u should help me frfr

[high igloo]

It works very well in my rank

I pass quite a lot

Especially a cheeky flick into double tap pass combo

[high igloo]

Rank?

[rocky blaze]

c2 div 4 i think

[high igloo]

What you need help with

[gritty sonnet]

Are you just thinking a pass when a teammate or you pass the ball directly to the other teammate

[rocky blaze]

game sense

[gritty sonnet]

That's ez

To learn

[high igloo]

Wdym

[gritty sonnet]

Like you pass directly, or just like 1 or 2 seconds before the other teammate hits it

[rocky blaze]

u cant just tell me its ez and im gonna rank up instantly lol

[gritty sonnet]

I said ez to learn

[high igloo]

You flick one of the opponents high and your tm8 pre jumps the double tap

[gritty sonnet]

Exactly what I just said

[high igloo]

Yeah what you said then

[gritty sonnet]

Ok

[gritty sonnet]

You just watch your replays and have an open mind, watch your opponents pov, your teammate/s and yourself

[high igloo]

My biggest tip is to only focus on one thing at a time

[rocky blaze]

any of u willing to help me rn?

[gritty sonnet]

Nope, sitting in a train going to school

[gritty sonnet]

Yeah, that is the fastest way to learn

[copper lance]

Any tips to get out of plat in 2v2 ?

[real rose]

i can watch one of your replays tbh

[copper lance]

sure

[real rose]

its gonna be a lot of "why didnt you score here the defenders are only plat"

[real rose]

dont we have to call forit

[copper lance]

😭

[copper lance]

do u want my car view or an overall view?

[cyan sage]

It’s really useful

What’s your rank @tardy ice

[gritty sonnet]

Incredibly useful

Ok

Well for starters you can do it anytime the ball is on the ground

And then you can for example still make play even with low boost, you can get the power with just a bit of boost

[cyan sage]

TikTok pawcioorl I’ll be streaming today so u can follow me and watch my live

[ripe helm]

Hit ball in net.

[rotund bison]

anyone here good at league of the rocket

specifically pc, need some keybind advice

air roll is weird, my friend bound airroll left to q and right to e, i did that for a long time but it feels limiting somewhat, now im looking into binding to my side mouse buttons, any thoughts on what are the most optimal keys?

for some additional info im left handed

hell i might just bind them to my left click and right click

[timid vine]

I got air roll on side mouse button

Main ones better use for boost and flip

[rotund bison]

i bound flip to spacebar and lock on ball to right click

[timid vine]

Bro

Hardstuck plat I smell

[rotund bison]

bruh

[timid vine]

Make it back💀

[rotund bison]

damn aight

[timid vine]

U cant get worse setting fr

[rotund bison]

relearning gonna be a...

[rotund bison]

😭

[timid vine]

Few days fr

[rotund bison]

yea feels way faster

but damn my head hurts cause of it

[timid vine]

Yeah i know the pain

[flint plaza]

try j and l instead of q and e (or anything on the right hand side)
if you wanna use the mouse try copying Yukeo's settings
I think he uses the mouse for air roll

[rotund bison]

what do the best guys use, like zen

[flint plaza]

controller

[rotund bison]

j and l are too far apart

[rotund bison]

bruh seriously?

[minor lichen]

Keyboard is so much less precise then controller

[flint plaza]

j is on the left, k is in the middle and l is on the right

[flint plaza]

depends

[hushed junco]

i cant understand that someone can play with the keyboard

this is crazy!

[flint plaza]

watch rlcs

[rotund bison]

i think the joystick is making the diff

might just get a controller then, which one should i get for rocket league?

[flint plaza]

I just mentioned yekeo but there are still pros using keyboard

[minor lichen]

yes but 29/30 play controller

[minor lichen]

xbox, ps4 controller

[flint plaza]

it doesn't rly matter so much but check out
gamesir g7 se

[hushed junco]

when i tried to play by keyboard i fell like i cant touch the ball

controllers is more useful to me

[brittle basalt]

can someone help me get the black diecis? i havent done my quest yet

[flint plaza]

spacebar can make you slow
just try speedflipping or wall dashing with spacebar and you might know what I mean

[flint plaza]

it will take a few days but you will eventually forget the old muscle memory

[timid vine]

Opposite

[flint plaza]

try tapping the keys instead of holding them too long

[timid vine]

Kbm is more precise (good for freestyle)
Controller allows to rotate camera to gain more info+abit more air roll control

[hushed junco]

ohhh...

[timid vine]

Camera is the main reason tho

[flint plaza]

u can even do that on keyboard lol

[hushed junco]

i would try

[flint plaza]

u and o for sideways

or n and m

[timid vine]

U can

But can't use it effectively in game

No way u let go of ur mouse to rotate

[flint plaza]

you only need 1 tap to use it effectively which is enough for keyboard users

[flint plaza]

I never use the mouse 😄

I use k for boost

[timid vine]

Just look how pros use camera(can watch beastmode he got active YouTube)

[flint plaza]

and space for jump but it is so slow and I still regret it
I use a special type of keyboard

[timid vine]

Controller allows to rotate camera at diff angles and during dribble or air dribble for example to get a better touch /fake

[flint plaza]

here for example
https://youtu.be/UsVYB-zTYbI?t=21

and here
https://youtu.be/UsVYB-zTYbI?t=120

might be hard on keyboard idk
but still doable

[timid vine]

.

[somber olive]

any1 wnna help me get the dieci's

[timid vine]

Nty

[flint plaza]

I can't see that necessary at the higher lvls
but it's just preference
just like ppl switching to car cam at the last second to get a final touch and recover

[timid vine]

I see gcs swap to controller just for camera

Otherwise there's no reason cuz kbm is more precise

[wraith shuttle]

how is it more precise

[cyan sage]

Someone want coaching to get plat/diam dm me

[wraith shuttle]

u dont need coaching for that lol

[flint plaza]

rly?

[novel valley]

and I bet you want an arms and a leg for it

[flint plaza]

some ppl do

[wraith shuttle]

yt vids will surely help more

[timid vine]

Controller has a little of rng since u have more directions which decreases accuracy

[cyan sage]

@wraith shuttle u need cause u can get rank quicker and if I would teach someone game sense from the beginning then he doesn’t have bad habits

[white sable]

@cyan sage what rank are you?

[cyan sage]

@wraith shuttle if you’re that smart we can play 1 vs 1 we’ll see who don’t need coaching

[cyan sage]

Peak gc3

[timid vine]

U don't but it can save you a lil amount of time

[wraith shuttle]

I dont need plat or diamond coaching?

[hushed junco]

so why you need coaching

[cyan sage]

That’s what am talking abt

[timid vine]

You mostly need coaching moving past champ

[rotund bison]

i just closed the game after twenty minutes lmao

[wraith shuttle]

sometimes the more directions are better

[rotund bison]

i usually play for two hours-ish

[wraith shuttle]

exactly

[rotund bison]

damn my head hurts

[timid vine]

But it doesn't mean it's more precise

[rotund bison]

yea i gotta get a controller ;-;

[timid vine]

U don't need to play good to understand simple logic

[cyan sage]

I’m asking about someone want coaching not me

[hushed junco]

oh

[wraith shuttle]

It is when you are in air on kbm u need to give a small touch on like "A" and on controller you just move a stick instead of wsad

[cyan sage]

I can help someone get gc if he’s high champ

[timid vine]

Just get better control so u don't need to do micro adjustments right before

[wraith shuttle]

But u may make a mistake so its easier to recover an airdribble on controller

[hushed junco]

how?

im hard stuck in 1456

above gc1 d 2

[timid vine]

Just use air roll

[cyan sage]

Coaching or faster way just I can boost u but it doesn’t make sense

[wraith shuttle]

its easier to airroll on controlle

[hushed junco]

ik

but anyway i will just keep playing

[timid vine]

Yeah but once again it's a little rng, kbm players don't usually have any rng movement situations like you rotate stick just 1mm lower and you get worse touch

Kbm is precise cuz all ups to your control

[wraith shuttle]

That may be true, I see a lot of people talking about controller but I played on it like once

[wraith shuttle]

what rank r u

[timid vine]

High d3(returned in Sept) and d2 when I played on controller in season 10

[wraith shuttle]

mhm not bad

[cyan sage]

So in your opinion Kbm is better ?

[timid vine]

No

[timid vine]

^^

[white sable]

you can't rotate camera on kbm?

those can't really help that much

[gritty sonnet]

not always true

[steep musk]

Controller or kbm I've got all the best gaming controllers btw, I'm gold hardcore got here in 2 days

[gritty sonnet]

that is preference

[gritty sonnet]

i mean if your used to play on controller go for it

[split helm]

anyone here gc3+ in turnments dm me

[white sable]

Controller imo simply for the fact that you can chill and kick back with controller while kbm that harder and most people use controller so easier to learn stuff

[novel gyro]

Yo any plats here

[barren oyster]

Generally it's better to go controller, kbm players are a small population so you can't expect to find many tutorials out there on youtube for example. Of course you also consider what you're comfortable gaming on.

[novel gyro]

any platinums?

[remote breach]

yeah

[novel gyro]

dms

[gritty sonnet]

What does imo mean

[novel gyro]

in my opinion

[gritty sonnet]

Thx

[cyan sage]

Anyone free for some ranked 2s

[swift hamlet]

Rank n region?

[cyan sage]

Im eu and my rank Is secret

What bout u

[gritty sonnet]

Nice rank, how do you get there?

[keen pumice]

as a kbm ssl, I highly recommend u to use a controller

[gritty sonnet]

Why didn't you switch then?

[keen pumice]

I can't hold a controller properly

[gritty sonnet]

Sad

[keen pumice]

I wish there was a chat like #looking-for-group to find ppl to play with

[split helm]

wanna play

[split helm]

come dms

[floral wave]

guys how do I usually implement my mechanics in real games, like flicking and air dirbbling, because I can do these well in free play, but almost in real games I never can

[keen pumice]

the reason u cant do them in matches is because u're probably giving the ball away too much instead of keeping it close to your car

and a flick doesnt take more than 2 seconds to set-up so there's smth wrong

[floral wave]

ye but when ever I have the ball close to my car, I end up selling

[floral wave]

I think that thing is my own problem

[keen pumice]

what rank are you in?

[floral wave]

but it is just air dribbling, I do them conbsistenly in free play but in real games am like dog water

[floral wave]

plat 2, but prob gonna get demote to plat 1

[keen pumice]

you need to learn how to catch the ball properly then

if your problem is possession of the ball, you wont be able to do much

[floral wave]

I wish I could like see someone's gameplay on how they have possesion of the ball in real games

so that I could actually have an image on my mind on how to do it

[keen pumice]

I'd suggest watching a pro playing 2s to see what they do

[floral wave]

I see them like flip on the ball

then go up the wall and air dribble, but most of the time, that type of setup sells me

[keen pumice]

you need to learn how they set it up in the first place

[floral wave]

and when It looks like I have a good setup, players be griefing

[keen pumice]

that's part of the game, gotta deal with it

[floral wave]

yup, thanks

[mystic python]

can anyone give me tips, I'm a silver 3 peak gold 1 (season ended the day i got gold ): .... ) I stopped playing a while back and got back on due to some friends and fell back into the game any thing helps i want to improve and try to hit plat by the end of the season.

[floral wave]

power shots, flicks, fast aerials, gamesense( like leaving ur tm8 when he has the ball), and try to imporve defending

[hushed junco]

+dont miss open shots

[mystic python]

understandable

[fringe light]

tbh just be patient

like if ur opponent has the ball

learn to fake challenge

so he just gets scared and throws the ball away

[gritty sonnet]

How is it going?

[gritty sonnet]

I don't think many gold players would get scared

They would just throw the ball away normally

[hushed junco]

in my opinion the fake challenge can be used from plat 3 and higher

[gritty sonnet]

Ok, I am talking about gold here

[hushed junco]

well idk about gold

[gritty sonnet]

They wouldn't know what it is

[hushed junco]

so what can be the best think to do in gold?

i didn't know that there is somebody who is stuck in gold until now

[gritty sonnet]

That is kinda rude

[gritty sonnet]

Accuracy and very basic dribbling

[errant viper]

any tips for solo queuing plat 2?

[gritty sonnet]

Catches and flicks

And some gamesense

[sweet canopy]

Hi guys can you help me to reach platinum

[sacred girder]

Does someone need a duo cuz i do

[floral wave]

getting good, i got plat 2, but currently am having problems implementing my mechanics in real games

[austere ore]

Epic advice

[austere ore]

Only thing you need in gold is ball and car control

Forget the flicks and powershots

[magic glacier]

Guys I need some advice for rocket league

On how to hit goals

[austere ore]

Wdym

[magic glacier]

Like I'm rlly bad and I can't hit goals

I miss open nets a lot 😅

[austere ore]

Can you control the ball?

[magic glacier]

Ye a little bit

[austere ore]

Console or pc?

[magic glacier]

Console

[austere ore]

You're probably panicking or just flipping without thinking

Training packs is the answer you need

[magic glacier]

Oh

[austere ore]

There's nothing fancy about shooting, just practice the fundamentals

By doing shooting training packs

Or you could just hit youtube and search "how to improve shooting", that's what I did

[dusky fiber]

Shortly before u hit the ball, for a good powershot try to let the ball bounce and shortly after it touches the ground u shoot it, this way it gets way more power

[austere ore]

Depends on what you want to do

If it's a regular one jump before (speedflips)

Then do what they do

[lyric prism]

tips for diamond?

[valid plover]

Control the ball don’t always boom it - focus on positioning ( by rewatching vods you can easily see what you did wrong ) - try to get your boost from boost pads instead of corner boosts only
I think that’s what most diamonds do wrong ofc with improving your own mechanics (aerials / ground control)

[gritty sonnet]

Can help if you need help

[zinc root]

first touch, ill repeat it first touch control the ball, i see people in gc still booming the ball, work on controlling the ball and being in control of the games pace

[gritty sonnet]

i don't think just getting boosts from boost pads is a good idea

boost pads should only be used to complement for big boost when your low or need to stay in the play still but big boost is still what you should rely on most of the time

[gritty sonnet]

also what does vods mean?

[zinc root]

he def didn't say that

[gritty sonnet]

welp read it wrong, still i said right after tho

what does vods mean

[zinc root]

he didn't say anything wrong

diamonds and champs and low gcs tend to over rely on big boots which put them in bad positions

[gritty sonnet]

i mean't me mb

[zinc root]

replay

[gritty sonnet]

never heard it before, well you learn somehting new everyday

[gritty sonnet]

i know that

[tacit marlin]

Video on demand (VOD) is a media distribution system that allows users to access videos, television shows and films digitally on request.

never heard of anyone referring to RL replays as vods lmao

[gritty sonnet]

the more you know

[wraith shuttle]

booming it is the best option on diamond as the enemy most likely will panic leading to an easy goal

[wheat wharf]

i have 2000 hours and my peak is Diamond 3

[ivory creek]

anyone know whats going on with bakkesmod rn?

[wheat wharf]

i can hit triple resets in game

[gritty sonnet]

that is insane, when did you start?

[wheat wharf]

i swear diamond is impossible

[ivory creek]

focus on game sense and stop doing tripls in game

[wheat wharf]

season 7 ftp

[gritty sonnet]

that is not good

[wheat wharf]

i am actually..

but rank is inconsistent

one game i get someone that hits psychos

next game i get bronze 1 players

[gritty sonnet]

idk what ftp mean but do you mean original season 7 or the new season 7

[wheat wharf]

free to play

[ivory creek]

good i peak gc 2 but js play more focused and working around your tm8 and for the love of god dont solo q

[wheat wharf]

i don't solo q

[ivory creek]

good

[gritty sonnet]

okay

[wheat wharf]

🙂

[gritty sonnet]

why not solo q?

[wheat wharf]

but look, imagine yourself in my situation. I am dribbling the ball and can flick at any moment, opponent is in a 1v1, he is alone in net, and yet he goes for the ball.

[ivory creek]

because youll never have the same playstyle as a random find someone play with them consistently and learn how you both play and 9 times out of 10 your rank will skyrocket

[wheat wharf]

i am KBM so i can play at pro speed level.

[wheat wharf]

underrated side of kbm

[ivory creek]

you not at pro speed becaause your still diamond and what you play on doesnt dictate that

[gritty sonnet]

so you would rather be just good at certain things?

[wheat wharf]

atleast gc 3 speed

[ivory creek]

no your not bro trust me

[white sable]

You do not have gc3 speed in Diamond lmao

[wheat wharf]

wanna see me?

[ivory creek]

you couldnt keep up it i put you in my gc2 lobbys

your in diamond

[wheat wharf]

are you EU?

[ivory creek]

no im central

[wheat wharf]

sad

i implement zap dashes etc...

i do wall dashes to recover

[white sable]

That don’t mean you play fast

[wheat wharf]

i mean, kinda

i also challenge first to the ball

[white sable]

You can hold boost all game that’s not the same as playing fast

[wheat wharf]

and go far post fast

[wheat wharf]

let's forget speed i just wanna get out of diamond rn

[ivory creek]

gang being fast isnt the speed at which you car goes

[white sable]

I guess it is fast but but playing fast means fast AND smart

[ivory creek]

beign fast is predicting what your opponents are going to do and forming a counter attack faster then they can make their move

[wheat wharf]

hmm

i guess i should focus more on that

[ivory creek]

yeah

[wheat wharf]

i can upload replay files, if someone wants to see

[ivory creek]

check dm

[wraith shuttle]

I can

[wheat wharf]

ight i'll send you both

[wraith shuttle]

sure

[wheat wharf]

i'll play ranked 2s rn, when i finnish i'll send like 3 replays of when i play good

[spring hatch]

Can anyone help me, what to do if my bakkesmod sais “itemmod not available while being oflline”
But im online

[white sable]

Review replays of your average game not your best games cuz there not as much to learn

[wraith shuttle]

yeah

send 3 first games so we can see where you make ur mistakes

[wheat wharf]

okay

[charred shale]

does anyone know a good settings for better mechanic and shi ?

espcially for the deadzones

[mortal gulch]

Would someone please do a replay analysis for me?

[ember anvil]

anyone play EU c1

english

[limpid tree]

Alr

[cyan sage]

Should i change my keybind on my controll to a button to press to roll or just roll it on my stick

[mortal gulch]

https://liquipedia.net/rocketleague/List_of_player_control_settings depends on what you think is comfortable. Some people do a button, some people a trigger, some people do both

[dusky coral]

anyone know a actual good way to get maktuf resets, ive been trying for a while in training packs and havent been able to get them often, i can do the maktuf flip itself easily but the ball doesnt have the right setup most of the time and i end up missing dm me if u can help 🙏

[cyan sage]

Hi

[valid plover]

It does work for a while but I think dia3 rn aren't that bad and correct me if I am wrong but I see many diamond players play with someone always being a keeper
But overall, I think to really get better you should be comfortable with controlling the ball
Also, watch youtubers like wayton pilkin and watch players for 1v1 like arsenal (unsure of how good arsenal is nowadays) this helps with improving dramatically especially the latter since you get an idea of how high ranked players think

[valid cairn]

CAN SOMEOME HELP ME GET DIECIS PLS

[wraith shuttle]

I am a champ and i still boom the ball like 30% of the time

i am a 2s player

I mostly play passes

with tm8s

[wraith shuttle]

I know how and when to demo, pass and boom the ball

when I see my m8 have the ball and has good position I insta go for demo

[agile girder]

is it better to find a duo or play randoms

[wraith shuttle]

I play solo q

but it can be better to find a duo

[icy nimbus]

Lf advanced help on ground to air

[valid plover]

good on you man keep up the good work

[wraith shuttle]

what rank r u?

[valid plover]

Used to be C3 now retired lol

[past maple]

honestly fair dues, c3 is torture 😭

[vast ivy]

I'd be happy to help.

[valid plover]

LMAO I think u need a teammate to push C3 or become just the best

[wraith shuttle]

oh lol, what was ur peak

[valid plover]

that was it

rn I only play for fun

[past maple]

yeah probably but i still wanna make it through using solo q. its so bad that ive started playing 1s😂

[wraith shuttle]

whst rank

[valid plover]

Best place to go tbh but don't get too frustrated with it

[valid plover]

C2

[wraith shuttle]

oh alr

[valid plover]

this season still not placed

[rich oasis]

hi guys how can i put a lfg request like everyone do in the lfg chat

[vast ivy]

You will continue to hit walls of MMR until you get a consistent tm8 who's dedicated to getting better with you

[icy nimbus]

Dms

[past maple]

yeah i’ve never really gotten tilted so im doing alright (so far)

[swift hamlet]

Any1 wanna freestyle 1v1 or reg 1v1 in a private? (Us only/mic req)

[wraith shuttle]

./looking and it will pop up

[vast ivy]

Ay

[valid plover]

good enjoy man

[past maple]

i’m just playing for fun tbh and solo q will make me better in the long run 😃

[vast ivy]

Solo queue, despite what you may have been lead to believe, won't make you better.

[wraith shuttle]

what mechanics u think a champ needs to get to gc

[vast ivy]

It will put you in a constant loop of having to overcompensate for what other lack unfortunately

[past maple]

it’ll make me better at adapting to teammates?

[valid plover]

This is true but I think GC is doable without a teammate but defo easier with one

[vast ivy]

Gc1 and beyond is easier to solo q

I agree

But if you have aspirations of getting out of champ, find a friend, seriously helps.

[valid plover]

tru

[wraith shuttle]

so getting a mate in champ to get gc would help?

[icy nimbus]

Lf advanced help in ground to air

[vast ivy]

A partner who is consistent is easier to adapt and work with than randoms every single time

[past maple]

in general tbh it’ll make u a higher rank

[vast ivy]

Sent you a friend, feel free to shoot my DMs

[swift hamlet]

dm

[vast ivy]

Mechanics? Little to none. Game sense, positioning, boost management? A lot of it.

Gc1 is a rank of more consistency of the basics. Play them well. Get a friend. You'll rank up.

[wraith shuttle]

I can only hit the ball in the air sometimes

[vast ivy]

Well then maybe some shooting packs would help you, and some wall to air dribbles

[past maple]

ngl i think u can reach champ without having to know fast aerials

[wraith shuttle]

fast aerials make u use less boost

I can do that

to defense mostly

[vast ivy]

Champ is slow. You can get there by just beating people to the ball. So I disagree.

[past maple]

like in consistent manner with power and accuracy i mean

[vast ivy]

Well of course let's have some intention with it not just Willy Nilly lol

[last surge]

Best tip to get from gc3 to ssl?

[past maple]

interesting because in my experience, overcommits happen every game. position and boost management is terrible so i feel like you can have a grounded game and reach champ

[vast ivy]

Man that's a tough one. I hit it for a short 2 games a few seasons back and I have yet to figure that one out. It's a different game really

[vast ivy]

Beat people to the ball. The positioning is the important part and not over extending to leave your teammate high and dry. If you are self aware, challenge.

[last surge]

Im c1 btw... asking for a friend

Lol

[vast ivy]

But yes if you are aware your positioning is bad and are prone to poor management of yourself, don't over commit. It's a game sense thing. Again, you can get to gc1 with great game sense and little mechs.

[last surge]

Good night everyone... gotta catch some sleep

See y'all around

[wraith shuttle]

gn

[vast ivy]

@past maple I think we agree on the idea, just typing it out differently lol you got it

[wraith shuttle]

I mostly let my mate do the magic, I demo he scores or I pass to him

mostly I am the defending one

[vast ivy]

That's why a consistent friend is important *chefs kiss

[wraith shuttle]

and more on the back

[past maple]

yeah agreed. i haven’t played in diamond ina while as well so my knowledge of the rank isn’t up to date

[vast ivy]

Spoken truly, I of course am not in there either, but from the things I remember, there's always things in reach rank that people stumble on

Hell even in gc, people's positioning is what gets them scored on. Some things never change I guess

[past maple]

what was the common mistakes made around c3/gc1 in your experience

i’m curious

[wraith shuttle]

me too

[vast ivy]

Please please please. Position yourself well, and keep a constant loop to a back post position. Even if you push forward to challenge in your corner, your mate comes in behind you, recycle immediately. As soon as you go middle of goal and near post, you're over exposed

And for god sake cheat the ball on kickoffs and do not go for the corner

As tempting as it is

[past maple]

okok i do the second one every time and im not sure how good my positioning is but thats why im trying to play more 1s rn

[vast ivy]

If you go for corner boosts on ANY kickoff, you're immediately out of play and almost always out of any position to defend. Especially getting into gc. I do not miss a free open net because of greedy boosters

[past maple]

it’s hard to judge your own positioning unless u watch replays i feel like.

[vast ivy]

Well man would be happy to play sometime. We can run some 2s and chat about it! And even watch some of my replays if you want

I make a ton of mistakes too, only human, so learn from me as well

I'm about to head home from work, so shoot me a friend and we'll play tonight I youre free. Or next couple days

You seem open minded ❤️

[finite echo]

depends on budget

[wraith shuttle]

whats ur budget

[vast ivy]

Gaming laptop all the way then, OMENs are really good.

[wraith shuttle]

Pc is better due to the efficency

I got hp victus for $500 now its like $400, gtx 1650, ryzen 5 5600G, 8gb ram and I get high fps in rl

[vast ivy]

My laptop for 1500 bucks at a RTX 2060, with an i7 and 32gb of ram, but the thing is that it's portable. I use it connected to 3 other monitors and then when I need I take it to work and used it all through college

Best 1500 bucks I ever spent

RL isn't a game that you need much for but I play a lot of other high fps games

[wraith shuttle]

ngl 1500 bucks for just 2060 and i7 is kinda a lot

[vast ivy]

It was back in 2019

[wraith shuttle]

nvm then

[vast ivy]

So it was pretty damn good LOL

It still runs like a champ

[wraith shuttle]

the prices were way much diff

[vast ivy]

You could find that same laptop for probably like 500 or less

[wraith shuttle]

nowadays maybe yeah

[cosmic cliff]

I got mine in 2022 and for 1,8k € I got an RTX 3060 and a Ryzen 7000

[vast ivy]

See that ain't bad at all

I def wouldn't go out and buy a new laptop, more worth for me to get a tower at this stage of life

But will never not love the flexibility of the laptop

In all seriousness. What separates a diamond 2 or diamond 3 from a champ 1 (in 2s)

And the difference between a diamond and champ in 1s

I'm looking for tips to get to the latter's.

[cerulean ether]

I need help with doing stuff into air dribbles and aerials (Reset ETC.) yes i can air dribble but i can't really do anything when in the air and i just wanna learn how to do a reset or something in the air. (Diam III)

[main monolith]

If you need coaching dm me

[fossil mango]

is anyone here good at hoops

[vast ivy]

Doing too much for Diamond 3

Mid air dribble resets aren't important for in game use for a long while after.

Master basics and your boost management and especially positioning.

[vast ivy]

Diamond 2- champ1 difference is conistency with basic mechanics. And their positioning is slightly better.

[fossil mango]

is there a difference between diamond and champ

[vast ivy]

I'm 1s the difference is big because a Diamond 1 and Diamond 3 are miles

[vast ivy]

Of course. If there wasn't there wouldn't be different ranks lol

[mystic shore]

I used to be chano 1 4 seasons ago and every season since the rank reset has messed me up. I have improved so much that it feels like the champ in me back then is a plat or gold now. And yet still stuck d2. Maybe is it my game sense or teamwork?

[mystic shore]

Mechs wise??

[gray sphinx]

See support please help

[fossil mango]

definetly not

[mystic shore]

I heard a YouTube say that simply by playing patiently u could go from diamond to high champ easily

[vast ivy]

Mechs wise the question is truly how consistent are you. Next is the fact that yes as seasons go on the distribution gets lower and lower so maybe a champ 1, 4-5 seasons ago may be Diamond 3 but def not gold..

[vast ivy]

Yea. Largely positioning.

[fossil mango]

playing patiently you can get gc as long as you have the basic mechanical skill to consistently hit the ball

[mystic shore]

No I mean the old me 4 seasons ago feels like a low plat now

Based on my improvement

[vast ivy]

Well? Be self aware. Are you truly above plat?

[mystic shore]

Yes. I'm at least above diamond 1 as that's my 1s rank

[vast ivy]

Well, as much as people may have led you to believe, 1s and 2s are vastly different, but do compliment eachother. Diamond in 1s is a good position for you but something is missing in your 2s game

[mystic shore]

I can't figure out weather it's team work that's holding me back or I'm simply improving at a slower rate than others

[molten hornet]

You need to enable CSTS faster movement

[vast ivy]

Sts is better

And using square deadzones

[fossil mango]

a lot of 1s players have horrible rotations i would look at that

[mystic shore]

I have it on csts

So is 1 setting better in 1s than 2s or ...

On ps4

All my rates are on high

[vast ivy]

All settings are universal that you play with

[mystic shore]

110
270
100
-3
0.35
4.20
1

Sensitivity are 1.52

[fossil mango]

zen fan over here

[mystic shore]

Dead zone 0.07
And dodge is 0.75

[vast ivy]

Lmfao

[mystic shore]

Lol

[vast ivy]

I can't knock someone's settings. It's all user dependent.

[mystic shore]

Vertices sync off

[vast ivy]

But if you are mechanically moving weird, you gotta adjust of course.

[mystic shore]

Any tips to change

[fossil mango]

i reccomend cross deadzone

[vast ivy]

I don't like cross I prefer square

[mystic shore]

How do u change that

[vast ivy]

Moved so smooth after

Depends on what you're using platform wise

[fossil mango]

what do you play on

[mystic shore]

Ps4

[fossil mango]

you dont

[fossil mango]

strange

[vast ivy]

I tried em all, just the way my cookie crumbled

[mystic shore]

So what's ps4 on?

[fossil mango]

the cookie sure did crumble thats for sure

[vast ivy]

😦

[mystic shore]

Csts or St's??

[vast ivy]

Just see whatever gives you the least amount of input lag

[mystic shore]

I don't really tell

I mean I can't tell

[vast ivy]

Do turns, dodges, and air dribbles in free play and see how it feels, if you don't feel a difference it happens👍🏼

You may not even notice until you go play a game

[mystic shore]

I kinda feel like it's smoother. The only way I can describe is its almost like when u go from max stiffness to say half way. U notice more movement. Could that mean that changing to St's has given me better input?

[vast ivy]

Yes less input lag

[mystic shore]

Hmm

OK so when I'm in ctsc when I tap the stick left or right it turns way more than it does on sts

[vast ivy]

If you usually have wacky internet use CSTS but if your connection is usually good go sts

[mystic shore]

?

[vast ivy]

Yea csts is a continuous input if that makes sense so it's more aggressive with the game speed

Like I said better if you have crap internet so it can keep up with your movements

[mystic shore]

So from what I've told u it should be better if I go for sts

[vast ivy]

Sts is the best for stable internet

If you don't get disconnected and have latency issues mid match then yes sts

[mystic shore]

I have wacky Internet but even so I feel smoother on St's. Should I change to it or keep on csts

[vast ivy]

Just play some games and change it if needed

No right or wrong answer

Any mechanics or just general strategy to master

[frozen gazelle]

Uhh for strategies, use algebra 1 to calculate the parabola of the ball in ur head so u can see when and where to hit it

[gray sphinx]

Lollll

[frozen gazelle]

U can also use geometry to figure out how much of an angle u need to fly up by

[sour spade]

all of the above

everything ig

just a run through

🙏

[tacit marlin]

it's pretty much just preference, you can check out any pro player's settings (except rizzo's) and it'll be good

then you can tweak them to what you feel comfortable with

[sour spade]

thx

[plush peak]

Anyone got tips because I just started yesterday and my friend want to duo with me and the problem is that I am bad anyone got some tips I can learn or teach?

[high igloo]

Learn what the buttons do

[plush peak]

Um I’m actually a Nintendo user so it’s like hard because I keep on getting beetern in 1v1 with my friends when I’m duoing and yea

[hexed fjord]

can someone join a private match and teach me how to airdribble with air roll

[high igloo]

Impossible

[hexed fjord]

huh

[vast ivy]

Air roll is just to adjust your car, learn to air dribble without it

[hexed fjord]

i can air dribble without it

[vast ivy]

So what's your issue?

You want to look flashy or sum?

[hexed fjord]

yeah

[vast ivy]

Genuinely, air rolling with air dribbles is just about car control on a finite level. So instead of just starting to AR with the dribble, go try some rings maps, and free play with AR, and then you will be naturally using it during your matches with the ball

Make them separate, train them separate. They will come together

Because if you don't know how to maneuver your car with DAR, no point in learning it WITH dribbles. It's gonna over complicate it

[flint plaza]

how

[vast ivy]

YouTube Losfeld Method of Airroll. A complete master class of how to train it. You won't regret the watch.

[hexed fjord]

ok thanks

[vast ivy]

🙂

[flint plaza]

don't focus too much on flying
stay on the ground and mostly behind the ball (between the ball and your goal)
also avoid walls/curves/corners...
until like silver

[flint plaza]

oh, and dribble in front of car not on car

[quaint tartan]
