[fathom ocean]

are u both ssl?

[vital smelt]

hell no, when did they even add ssl

[spring obsidian]

i actually have a question, if anyone is a pc player, have yall had any weird framerate stuff recently, mine was so bad today because my graphics card settings for rocket got set to default but all info I had was saying rocket league was running normally but it was clear my screen was scuffed

[fathom ocean]

Im on a 10 year old playstation dude

im hardstuck high gc2

[spring obsidian]

lol nah, im decent at the game but theyre miles above me, and pros are miles above them

[vital smelt]

my frames implode and cry sometimes at the start of the game but thats usually it, maybe some stutters here and there

[lament salmon]

oh thought u were 10 for a sec lmao prodigy

[vital smelt]

is RL on steam, i swear it was before

[spring obsidian]

i was champ on console when I switched, im just talking about such a sudden change to what im used to seeing. makes it hard to read the screen

[vital smelt]

hard to read? like resolution

[spring obsidian]

been like 4yrs or sum lmao

[spring obsidian]

imagine youre eyeballs are lagging basically

[fathom ocean]

My playstation is on its deathbed atp I can barely play well because of the random game freezes that happen now.

[spring obsidian]

is it ps4?

[fathom ocean]

yeah

[vital smelt]

nahh say swear, i thought it was like a year or two ago, I played a lot before ssl and no way its been longer than that

[spring obsidian]

i fixed my xbox one when it was like that by putting a wet rag over the intake/fans

[lament salmon]

u playing on steam?

[spring obsidian]

or just on the frame

[lament salmon]

oh wait u on ps?

[vital smelt]

im on epic games, I never made the switch

I started on a ps4 then switched to epic games I think around 2020

[spring obsidian]

when i switched to pc the game was already free on epic

[lament salmon]

ohhhhh make sense

[lament salmon]

pbly best update

[spring obsidian]

thats debatable lol

[lament salmon]

tho i do feel empty a bit playing rl its kinda boring without a tm8 u play with

[lament salmon]

well ofc for me

[spring obsidian]

the game mightve died without it tho

[spring obsidian]

ive only ever solo queued

[lament salmon]

true but smurfts is easier now

[spring obsidian]

have like 1600hrs

[lament salmon]

i played at the start with friends but left em in the dust

[vital smelt]

very, I loved the new players for a bit, them smurfs and the community became more toxic

[spring obsidian]

i have a friend who plays but i passed him a long time ago, best rank we can get together is c2

[fathom ocean]

what rank are u guys currently

[spring obsidian]

i think the game just got a bigger audience, usually big games always have those issues

[vital smelt]

i guess mid plat?

[spring obsidian]

c3

always wear my old a** gc tag though lmao

[fathom ocean]

I gotta find ppl from asm cuz i need a long term 2s mate cuz im so close to gc3

[vital smelt]

I still boast about my c1 peak, totally not luck and cope

its always been so hard to find a 2s mate, especially if you or them exceed you

[spring obsidian]

well you both need to improve at a similar rate lol, thats what makes it hard i feel

cant rank up together unless you both get better

[vital smelt]

I've only ever liked personal like irl or just online friends ive known for a while as my tm8s in competitive but they never play or our ranks are just soo far apart

[spring obsidian]

my friend is d3/c1 on a good day but if he plays solo queue ill catch him in d1 or d2 lmao

[vital smelt]

if I improve can I steal ur friend 🙏

[spring obsidian]

my longest known friends are people on an island ive never met lol

[fathom ocean]

Ive exceeded all my mates so far so its sad

[spring obsidian]

they dont see the grind💪

[vital smelt]

I just lwk want my group back, I miss just endless calls and forever sessions

[spring obsidian]

eh it goes away when u get older

[vital smelt]

boost ALL of them 🔥

[spring obsidian]

admins rn👀👀

[fathom ocean]

😂

i would but they js arent good enough

[vital smelt]

no it doesnt, I will and still hold all of my friends memories from preschool/elementary

[thin yarrow]

I been thinking about that and only one of them decided to pick up the game so I’m teaching him so far even tho he barely tries to learn

[thin yarrow]

Get good enough to make it happen then

[vital smelt]

teach me‼️ im a worse friend but a better player trustt

[spring obsidian]

if u really want a duo this server has looking for game or something, can match timezones, rank, and console

[fathom ocean]

Im almost gc3 now and they are still c1

[thin yarrow]

Ur probably a higher rank tbh

[thin yarrow]

… you can get them to gc1 yk

[vital smelt]

prolly by a division or two 😼

[fathom ocean]

yeah gc1 is easy

[thin yarrow]

What is ur rank

[fathom ocean]

they want me to get them to gc2

[spring obsidian]

😭😭

[thin yarrow]

You say that but c3 is the worst thing ever to try and get out of

[vital smelt]

eh never really liked that system, I need connection before teaming up unless im desperate

[fathom ocean]

oh fr?

[spring obsidian]

^

[thin yarrow]

It makes me want to stay in c2 forever

[vital smelt]

id say im low plat, im d1 in 2s but i think thats just old mmr from like a year ago

[fathom ocean]

im pretty sure i went from c1 to gc2 without losing a single game

[spring obsidian]

it so varied man, i peak with 1k points and next game ive got 250 after ot

[thin yarrow]

That’s cause ur old so you missed out on it

[fathom ocean]

Im not old tho🙏🏻😭

[thin yarrow]

You are

[vital smelt]

yes you are unc

[spring obsidian]

thats how i get out of c1, just cuts at mid c3 usually

[thin yarrow]

I gotta sleep now so goodnight I’ll probably try to learn how to get better at 1s tommorow

[fathom ocean]

i havnt been down in champ lobbies in ages so i dont know how its like anymore

[spring obsidian]

what was the black plague like?

[fathom ocean]

🥹🥹🥹

[vital smelt]

better teach me when you wake up 👺

[thin yarrow]

I got school

[spring obsidian]

much better but the split between gc1 and c3 is very obvious

[thin yarrow]

Gc3 man what should I try to focus and learn in 1s

[fathom ocean]

what rank are u

[vital smelt]

im jp, i gotta be up in 2 hours for school

[thin yarrow]

Uh like d2 or a game off d3

Somehow almost c3 in 2s which makes like no sense

[fathom ocean]

oh thats gud

[thin yarrow]

By almost I mean I went on a losing streak in 2’s and lost 60 elo

[fathom ocean]

I mean i dont play anythin other then 2s

[spring obsidian]

thats a huge spread?

[thin yarrow]

Wdym

[fathom ocean]

i was gc2 div4 in 2s and d3 in 1s

[thin yarrow]

I just never played 1s or 3s as much as I did 2s

[fathom ocean]

thats a huge spread

[vital smelt]

😭

no wonder I was fighting demons

[spring obsidian]

wait nvm, makes sense, read it wrong or something idk

[fathom ocean]

i swear the second I get a pc im gonna get gc3 easy

[spring obsidian]

that is

d3 is my ones placements lol

[fathom ocean]

i peaked at gc1 in 1s

[spring obsidian]

c2 for me

[fathom ocean]

but havnt played 1s in a long long loooong time.(since the black plague)

[spring obsidian]

i had shadow defense perfect for some reason then, like i wouldnt even know where im going for the save, just copying at the perfect distance

[fathom ocean]

what server are you on?

[spring obsidian]

na central

and west

east and eu have the same lag which is crazy cause im in texas

[spring obsidian]

never been able to replicate it, even when i got to the rank again

[spring obsidian]

c2 now😔

any tips for a diamond 1 in 1s competing against all kinds of ranks in a 1v1 tournament? ( need to get atleast top 8)

[broken zealot]

can anyone teach me how to double flip reset

[brazen oxide]

If you can tell they’re better than you, you need to beat them through chance like fakes or bumps, do very careful fake challenging and do what you think they won’t expect you to

[strong loom]

bro im freaking gonna crash out im d3 div 4 and i keep losing 1 game winning 1 game freaking hell i lost 2 games so i hopped off

[brazen oxide]

Congratulations

[strong loom]

any tips

[brazen oxide]

The hardest part of ranking up is the 4 divisions, not the promotion. Keep playing, don’t tilt queue, try party queueing, and actively try to improve something while you try to rank up

[strong loom]

Dm if you want coaching for free

[lavish mason]

Look up wave dashes and half flips will help u

[distant socket]

wave dash in silver?

silvers cant even land on their wheels properly, learn how to hit the ball hard and accurate in silver

[cerulean bloom]

Anyone coaching for free? Im hardstuck d3/champ1. Need help with getting past champ 1

[lavish mason]

Its litteraly two inouts gng

They ll learn both in few minutes tops

[distant socket]

yes and so is fast arieling but they're not doing that in silver are they

[distant socket]

half flips i agree, wave dash can wait till later, all they need to do is hit the ball accurately

[rough python]

Best maps for plat

[distant socket]

wdym best maps

[lavish mason]

Fast aerials will require air control if they have it then fast aerials will give them a big advantage

[lavish mason]

And wave dashes are litteraly just free movment

[distant socket]

yes and silvers can barely move

i dont think you've been to silver lobbies be4

[lavish mason]

Been there for a sec only tho

[distant socket]

yea ive been there for like 3 days or sum, silver is nothing like gold XD, newborn vs 10 y/o type skill diff

but wave dashing is a very useful mechanic i agree, just dont think they should learn it at silver, maybe gold or plat

[lavish mason]

Its silver 3 diffrence of skill it and gold1/2 is less than a 25 hours of gameolay

For a mech that litteraly takes 5 minites top to learn

[quaint kettle]

gc2, struggling to rank up, keep meeting tm8s who leave after 10 seconds or tries to redirect my open goal and misses. someone coach me and help me ong

[distant socket]

💀 thatis tragic

[quaint kettle]

it rly is

[naive moat]

im a kbm player and im tryna learn directional air roll but its extremely hard (alot alot harder than it is on controller) how do i learn it fast? im gold 3 - plat 1 skill level (i keep dropping from plat to gold 3 and gold 3 to plat 1 all the time) rn the mechanics i know are half flip, fast aerial, really good air dribble glues and js normal air dribbles and wave dashes please give me tips

[lavish mason]

Mf learn dribbling not air dribbling

Plus i really doubt u have really good glued air dribble

[naive moat]

if ya want i can show you ingame, my user is flintt9 add me

[lavish mason]

Aint home gng

[naive moat]

yh i can do decent dribbles too

[naive moat]

ohh alright

[lavish mason]

Then lesrn flicks

[naive moat]

idk whats considered "really" good but it js seems good for me if were talking about a gold 3 - plat 1 player

[lavish mason]

If u got decent flicks and dribnles then u have three options gng
U capping
U cant score opens
Ur game sense is terrible

[naive moat]

i can do those decently too, ive almost mastered backflip flicks and frontflip flicks as well as diagonal flicks

[lavish mason]

Plus all u need out of gold is powershoting

[naive moat]

i can actually not score open nets, my rotation is decent but probably trash at plat 2-3 and higher, dont know abt my game sense

[lavish mason]

Then score them gng

[naive moat]

i can score open nets but i dont know why i just feel alot of pressure whenever the opponents net is open so i miss it cause of that 80% of the time

[regal fiber]

Who can help
Me

[lavish mason]

Just try to relax whilr plsying ranked and try to learn from ur mistakes u will improve either way at that level

[naive moat]

do i just do normal mechanics and not try to do flashy stuff even if im confident i can do em? like do i js focus on actually hitting the ball, doing powershots, air dribbles (if i get the chance to) dribbles, flicks etc

[outer gulch]

I coach and watch a team go to d3 div 2 to c1 less then 10 matches not bad

How did SSG sold the match against vitality

Plz someone explain this to me

[lavish mason]

U will improve faster with game sense than mechs and u ll probably have better time learning mechs later on

[lavish mason]

With?

[naive moat]

how do i get better game sense, do i js keep playing?

[lavish mason]

Keep on laying with intent

[regal fiber]

I wanna get better with my mechanics

[naive moat]

wdym laying with intent 😭

[lavish mason]

Dont smack it around tryi to keep possesion of the ball and see what happens learn from it

[outer gulch]

How did SSG sold the match against vitality

Plz someone explain this to me

[naive moat]

alr tysm

[lavish mason]

What mechs and whats ur rank? Also lmk if ur freestyler

[lavish mason]

Yeah not gonna help brochscho more than if u send some clios and i ll tell u whats wrong

[silver mural]

[lavish mason]

In some cases u should boom the ball away still try to be able to either follow it up or setup ut tm8 so he can atleast chall

[silver mural]

who want to team in rocket league im gold 3 division 2

[slender gale]

Is there any controller settings for xbox that would help me improve?

[wind axle]

Personally myself I stuck to the defaults apart from air roll, which I put air roll right on rb and left on lb

[fossil mango]

looking for better 1s players than me that might be able to give some tips

[slender gale]

K

[fossil mango]

can you help me out?

[slender gale]

With?

[fossil mango]

some 1s tips maybe

[slender gale]

Um sure

[remote swift]

LF perm 2s partner SSL EU with mic for next season

[frigid quest]

I just lost to a plat 1 help 😭 my car just bounces off the ball like a pillow when i go for challenges i peaked diamond 3 but i can’t build any sort of consistency or mechanics with any settings no matter how hard I try. I fell all the way down to gold 3 in 2v2 before i could barely lift it back up to plat 2.

[wind axle]

Your probably in the suck phase of rl rn 😆

Just work on the basics

[frigid quest]

Im cooked. I want to try to use directional air roll but it’s already too late for me to learn. Mmr is too high to learn it as i play. I would just be selling every game

[gusty sandal]

Anyone wanna seriously 1v1 (1s rank at least d2 and must be eu)? (DM me)

[wind axle]

Never too late ur only plat?

[gusty sandal]

there are people who start at gc

[wind axle]

Fr

[frigid quest]

Im supposed to be a diamond. Ive been playing the game for years where my muscle memory is just spamming random buttons.

[wind axle]

Well then it isnt muscle memory. Focus on the basics whilst ur in diamond and plat

[gusty sandal]

just for furthering the point there are ssls also

[cyan sage]

secret vs ssg

[wind axle]

And no need to worry bout mechs at this stage as well tbh

[frigid quest]

Directional just feels so off. Im used to normal air roll where i have full control of my car and can actually aerial. I just feel like it will take months to even get comfortable with it.

[wind axle]

Well its better to do so rather than doing it later

Bcs atleast by the time ur gc you'll be used to it

And there's many ways to improve on it

You dont just have to play comp and casual to improve on air roll

[slender gale]

Whats buttons r ur airrolls on

[frigid quest]

L1 and R1

I also have to learn boost on circle

Used to it being on r1

[vague bramble]

Bro im gold and i think im way better, and before you think im being arrogant, i can wavedashes ive got good gamesense, i hit the ball really well, and the only reason i dont rank up is because i play 2v2, but my playstyle is defensive then counterattack/ wait for openings , so i rely on teammates but my teammates are terrible because im in gold furthermore im in an infinite loop

[slender gale]

I use airroll on y and b and boost on l1

try that out

[frigid quest]

Im just trying to find a good way to gain consistency while playing.

[slender gale]

use custom maps

[gusty sandal]

if you play defensively and then counterattack and actually hit those shots i would say your out of gold right away

[vague bramble]

Ik but its my teammates

I solo queue

Ive seen diamonds and plats play and i think im the same or even better

[slender gale]

Or private and training

[gusty sandal]

seeing and playing are two differnt things

[vague bramble]

No like im not stupid im not amazing like high diamond but im high plat

I can hit a ground pinch 7/10 times

[gusty sandal]

not saying your stupid, just saying seeing and playing are two different things

[vague bramble]

I get it

Do u wanna play?

because i got no proof…

[gusty sandal]

i have to eat dinner but i can after

[vague bramble]

Ok

[small herald]

i also thought that and i recommend more free play

[bitter gorge]

can anyone coach me? (i’m on PC epic games, i do have bakkesmod and workshop maps)

[remote nacelle]

Hmmm

[bitter gorge]

[wind axle]

Thats alright actually I think thats probs well in normal comp d3 or c1 but in casual its different

[fossil mango]

[wind axle]

Yh thoughts so

[bitter gorge]

i remember facing plat 2s in cas

[wind axle]

So not bad tbh

[bitter gorge]

i did see a diamond 1 as well

[wind axle]

Well i can definitely help you :)

[cyan sage]

[wind axle]

I'll log on later as im busy for ghe next few hours

[bitter gorge]

alr nws

[fossil mango]

that is the big question

[fossil mango]

can you help me

[wind axle]

Rank?

[bitter gorge]

what time do you think you can help?

[fossil mango]

im c2 in 3s

[wind axle]

Around 10 ish uk time

[bitter gorge]

k

[wind axle]

What bout 2s?

[fossil mango]

idk

[bitter gorge]

check

[fossil mango]

it says 1589

[bitter gorge]

is that a rank?

[wind axle]

Holy

Thats like gc 2

[bitter gorge]

oh

[wind axle]

Or 3

[fossil mango]

damn

[bitter gorge]

what rank are you?

[wind axle]

U dont need my help lmaooo

[wind axle]

Gc 2 peak but rn gc 1

[bitter gorge]

:0

[gusty sandal]

its not gc3

[wind axle]

Alr mb

[gusty sandal]

its barley gc2

[bitter gorge]

barely*

[old kite]

hey mate

[wind axle]

Gc 2 is gc 2 🤷‍♀️

[strong solar]

I am wanting to get back to gc next season. I hit it in season 18 but it was kinda a lucky winstreak. I am peaked this season 1405 I need tips on how to clear c3 again next season and make that push

[gusty sandal]

yes, just saying its barley gc2

[wind axle]

Play with a mate with good chemistry and comms thats what helped me

[wind axle]

Its barely*

[bitter gorge]

what rank do you think you could get me? with coaching

[strong solar]

I do that every day tbh. I have 450 game this season with my irl who is slightly lower rank than me but I wanna know what I can do to help get that final push

[wind axle]

Well it depends how long u gonna play and how much work

[strong solar]

he is like 20 mmr peak below me

[bitter gorge]

ok

[wind axle]

Well for me one day I just peaked and we got to gc somehow

Thats it really tbh its just playing constantly

Amd dont give up :)

[strong solar]

okay. got it. 600 games consistent enough XD

[strong solar]

will keep it out twin

[wind axle]

Well i got it in 400 ish games maybe a bit less

[zinc ice]

Does anyone have tips to get to c1 im d3 rn

[strong solar]

I have 495 on one account and 150 on anther

[wind axle]

Focus on the basics and get good at them tbh and also its easier to party queue

[strong solar]

tbh just bang the ball more when its threating and try to control it when u have space. just dont leave the ball when you dont hjave to

[strong solar]

I see a lot of people in your rank control the ball when the opponents are still trying to get active. banging the ball can create time for you and your teamate to get boost and reset

[wind axle]

Well losing possession aint good either

But whatever works at that rank

[strong solar]

in champ thats what works trust me. I was stuck there for 3 seasons someone told me that instantly c2 lol

[strong solar]

its just decision making and not banging it all the time. Just when you and your tamate are awkward and no boost

[wind axle]

Well in gc losing possession isnt ideal lmao u need as much of the ball as you can get

Bcs at gc most people dont ff after 2-3 goals

[strong solar]

yeah it gets different the higher you go. I am just saying for him

[wind axle]

Well I'd prefer somebody to learn possession at a lower ranks so as they go through the ranks they just get better at keeping control and possession and not panicking

[feral lotus]

can anybody coach me currently plat2

[wind axle]

So many people need coaching lmao

[feral lotus]

so can you?

[wind axle]

Anyone who needs coaching just dm me rank and region and I'll get back to you when im free later

[slate prawn]

Lmaaoaoao I saw

Any tips?

[lavish mason]

i found u too easy too fake i think its due to ur ball placment on the car it blocks ur vision so when u see me moving in it makes it so u cant see if i fake or no

and u give ball too much due to that i just fake challed everything

if your new and you really like the game, spend a good amount of time in freeplay practicing and learning everything you find fun or interesting, when your in games, focus on the players and rotation as much as possible

[noble bone]

Awesome, appreciate it.

ik this seems dumb to ask but any tips for shooting 🫠

[cyan sage]

most of what happens online isn't legal, but it happens anyway

[iron shoal]

don't play this game

[tidal vigil]

what is the best way to train shooting (packs, custom maps, etc)

[iron shoal]

i'm just one game more to throw the pc from the window

[tidal vigil]

just take 5

rage queueing just throws your rank and makes you the worst tm8 to play with

[iron shoal]

yo man

im playin w a p3 friend u know what the matchmaking do

[tidal vigil]

ahhhhh i see

[iron shoal]

put me against a d3 and d2 people

[tidal vigil]

thats why i only play casuals with my low ranked friends

[iron shoal]

ya man but it isn't my fault that the matchamaking is a sh

[tidal vigil]

i mean queuing ranked kinda is

[iron shoal]

like is imposible to get to champ on this way

when im division 4 they put me the bets d3 players they can put and the ball na i think tha ball has something serious w me bc 8/10 of my shots goes out

[fresh kiln]

deactivate ball cam when youre going to shoot, u can center ur car and the ball in the camera for a clear shot to where u wanna direct the ball, i use this cuz it helps me with my shots

[open spindle]

Thanks

[fresh kiln]

its not the same for everyone, but for me its good

[open spindle]

Ima try it tmr

[gusty sandal]

What are the top 10 most important things for defense?

[brazen oxide]

I don't think there's that many I think there are like 5

[gusty sandal]

Ok 5

[brazen oxide]

Proper back post rotation
Proper shadowing
Proper focus (being prepared to defend at the right time)
Proper clears (hitting far out or in a way you get possession)
And proper fakes (fake challenges for high level defense)

[gusty sandal]

Thx

[iron shoal]

like i might have to talk w epic seriusly

and teel them to fix the matchmaking and the demos

Anyone ssl hoops ps5?

[oak drum]

Any tips to read faster balls in the air?

[brazen oxide]

Training packs. There are some things I don’t recommend training packs for but ball reads is quite surely one of the best things to use it for

It’s useful because with the same setup every time you can understand the physics of it, then be able to do it with any scenario

[oak drum]

Oh, can you give me some(outside of Aerial-pass)

[brazen oxide]

What type of fast aerial reading?

What are you trying to do with the ball

[oak drum]

Just score it, I decided to stop learning mechs, and just focus on my aerial control/ground dribbles

[brazen oxide]

So redirects?

[oak drum]

That may be a bit much for plat

[brazen oxide]

I can’t think of another scenario with a fast ball

Maybe your and my definition of fast are different

[oak drum]

Definitely, I don't want to become someone whose mechy with zero game sense

[warm kayak]

does anyone who plays on kbm also have input delay since 3 days after 10 to 20 seconds playing in freeplay or ingame ????

[vital smelt]

idek if im doing speed flips half the time, but for half flips you are turning over to quickly, you can wait like a whole second or two before flipping to land parallel to the ground

[swift parrot]

[latent crown]

learn to fly backwards foward and sideways fully then just watch a tutorial and is easy

[near prism]

Anyone know why tf i struggle more in D2 than in high div D3?

[latent crown]

noobs are unpredictable

[near prism]

It feels like the opponents are always better than my teammate, and my teammate most of the time just holds me back in D2 (same in D3 but for some reason I find it easier to stay high in D3)

Struggling a whole rank below the rank I was dominating just a couple of hours ago

[latent crown]

nuh uh tm8s aren’t the issue

[near prism]

Everyone always says that and I heavily disagree

[latent crown]

if you’re blaming d2 on teammates then i doubt you’re dominating d3

[near prism]

Ig going on win streaks and staying between 1030 and 1070 most of the time doesn't mean I belong in D3

Ftr, I dont always blame my teammates, I dont blame them for my losses, I mostly blame them for my drop in confidence in them and myself.

[latent crown]

i’d say this

in your lower ranks then there’s an exception maybe once every like 20 games your teammate will be fully brain dead

but if you’re lowkey just abit more mechanical than the rest you’re easily hitting c3

gamesense is overrated in lower ranks

[near prism]

This all started when I got 4 bad games in a row, and yes, I will blame my teammates, you would agree if I showed you a replay of those games, and after those 4, I kept on losing because I wasn't playing as good, and I felt worse playing in worse lobbies.

[latent crown]

if you’re on a losing streak play 1s or lowk just hop off

[gusty sandal]

Only time its teammates is when you meet an actual boosted teammate

[latent crown]

no point continuing 2s just to play worse each time

[near prism]

I swear I hit crazy stuff when I have space but I rarely ever get that with all the insta challenging everyone does randomly

[gusty sandal]

Its Underrated

[pastel vortex]

it cant be teammates every time, sometiems you gotta accept that maybe youre just having a bad dday

[latent crown]

agreed

[latent crown]

??? haha

don’t force mechanics bro

[pastel vortex]

if you cant make that space then you need to practice more

[near prism]

Like as long as I have space, the ball is going in 100%, deadass

[latent crown]

if you’re in the position to go for an air dribble then do it

if you aren’t then don’t go for it

[gusty sandal]

So its always teammates until its a bad day?

[near prism]

Already do that, I go for what I can only when its necessary

[latent crown]

nah if you’re a “gamesense” player firstly it’s BORING secondly you know what to do but can’t execute in lower ranks

[pastel vortex]

gamesense is so UNDERrated in lower ranks

[gusty sandal]

I see you haven't seen lower ranks in a while

[latent crown]

so why’d you complain about people rushing

[pastel vortex]

imagine just getting out of diamond because you can hit the ball hard and on target every time and your opponents just pass it to you

[latent crown]

hitting hard is mechs bud

[near prism]

You must not know how many unmechanical/more game sense focused people are here in D2/D3

[pastel vortex]

the most basic mechs

[latent crown]

proving my point further

[latent crown]

no?

[pastel vortex]

hitting it on the bounce is not a difficult skill to learn

[latent crown]

haha i hear it

[gusty sandal]

There are like 2

[latent crown]

there’s more to that

[near prism]

Because my opponents pop out of nowhere, I swear they're across the field and then suddenly they're on me. A bit of an exaggeration but that's essentially how it feels

[latent crown]

accuracy and hitting hard is what i had in mind

[pastel vortex]

the skill is being able to know where the ball is coming, and being in a position to get a good clear

[gusty sandal]

More of a good shot tbh

[latent crown]

i know how that feels

[gusty sandal]

Spatial awareness

[latent crown]

but lowk that’ll go overtime as u get quicker on the ball

[pastel vortex]

same difference, point is bouce shots arent that hard if you can have the basic gamesense to be able to apply them

[near prism]

Alr I'll be more specific now, how can I improve my offense? Defense is what I'm most comfortable with but that leaves me with a lack of offense skills, even though it's what I train the most.

[latent crown]

flicks n dribbling

[pastel vortex]

thought you had offence sorted?

[near prism]

When i have space

[latent crown]

you can flick the ball even without space

[gusty sandal]

Just shoot with power and accuracy tbh

[latent crown]

i remember i did dribble 2 overhaul for a week n it got me to c2

[near prism]

But I'm not good at creating my own opportunities

[gusty sandal]

Not the best in 2s bc you give away possession

[pastel vortex]

hit it off the sidewalll round opponents, and hit it off the backboard for teammates to score

or hard off the corners

[latent crown]

hm i get what u mean

[pastel vortex]

you dont have to score every time, as long as your opponents think that you are going to

[latent crown]

but i’m saying flick it over the first man and you’re in a 2v1

[gusty sandal]

Dribbles for sure but flicks aren't the best in 2s unless if its 2v1 or 1v1

[near prism]

If the opportunity pops up in front of me, easily gonna take it, but I cant create my own, so i rarely get them since I cant create them myself.

[mighty flax]

Flicks and ground play is all you need to get c3, really dont need to take ball in air in champ

[pastel vortex]

if opp 2nd man is competent, they should collect a free ball after the flick

[latent crown]

flicks are part of offence yk

he wants that

[latent crown]

no cuz they’re facing you

[pastel vortex]

truth

[gusty sandal]

Ik, just saying not the best to give out possession

[latent crown]

precisely my point

[pastel vortex]

thats how they want to be? ball goes over 1st man, 2nd man collects for free

[mighty flax]

Thing that champs struggle with is over complicating mechs and try to go for too much mechanical stuff. Keep it simple and get good at 50s and flicks

[gusty sandal]

Thats the diamond/champ mindset

[latent crown]

agreed tbh

[mighty flax]

Yea and it just leads to them over committing with 0 boost and leaving their 2nd in a 2v1

Or committing as 2nd when your teammate isnt rotating out

[gusty sandal]

Seen several that can perfectly air dribble but miss every shot and also miss like just simple "air shots"

[near prism]

Brotha im not even C1 yet and as soon as I set up a flick (I see there is a lot of space between me and my opponents) they somehow bolt into the ball and next thing i know a dominus or fennec or whatever just jumpscares me like it's fnaf or some shi

[mighty flax]

Everyone just rushes everything, key is to be patient and slow down and coast

[gusty sandal]

Just flick early

[pastel vortex]

then dont dribble head on into opponents, keep an angle so you can see the car

[latent crown]

u gotta be quick w it

[mighty flax]

Watch play and dont hard focus on ball

[pastel vortex]

and turn nameplates up to 200% scale

[lyric harness]

1V1

[mighty flax]

^

[latent crown]

200is absurd

[modern fjord]

br?

[mighty flax]

150

[near prism]

I use 150%

[latent crown]

170 for me

[pastel vortex]

200 gives the most visibility

[gusty sandal]

I mean if you have the ball on your hood and dribble you still can't see anything besides with angles

[latent crown]

yea but blocks ur entire screen

[pastel vortex]

literally handicapping yourself i fyou dont have it

[gusty sandal]

No it doesn't

[mighty flax]

I troll 200%ers on my alt by having my name wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww and it takes up their whole screen

[latent crown]

^

🤷‍♂️

[gusty sandal]

I have met those and it really doesn't bother me

[pastel vortex]

^

[mighty flax]

Reason why higher ranked players or sweats play with . Is to have the smallest nameplate so you cant see them

As easily

[gusty sandal]

I have on 200% and I don't see anything wrong with it

[mighty flax]

Just preference

I usually play 100-120

Tips for going from C3 to GC? It can’t just be to improve mechs. My rotation is tight. Yet I would say my consistency isn’t the best when I do enter the air.

[vital smelt]

am i more likey to go against other solo qers?

im guessing not

Should I learn double taps or air dribbles first(overall "mastery")

[unborn citrus]

what mechanics would i need to master to get myself out of the lower ranks? im plat 2 atm.

[cedar chasm]

None, lower ranks don't need mechanics. The only one that could help is ground dribbles and maybe flicks but it's not required but rather a thing that you can do if you want to

[unborn citrus]

i can flick

currently trying to get my 45 flicks better

i can speed flip, dribble, do normal aerials, and can get power shots

[cedar chasm]

I doubt you can speedflip and also, what do you mean by "normal aerials"?

[unborn citrus]

no airroll

[unborn citrus]

#gameplay-highlights

[cedar chasm]

Have you tested musty's training pack? If you can do it right you should be able to touch the ball before the timer runs out

[unborn citrus]

ill try. whats the ID

[limpid olive]

In need of some advice. At one point my bro on XB was a SSL and would practice goalie on me. I go to the point i could save quite a few shots and learned to aerial. I watched him and got mysef to D3D4 at one point and now I cant hardly get back there. In my opinion I rotate, communicate, and spare and passing shots I can and yet I'm still stuck between D1D3 and P3D2.
My internet is also cursed so ping spikes every 15m don't help much....

[cedar chasm]

Uhh, don't remember. Just look it up it should be pretty easy to find

[unborn citrus]

k thx

[cedar chasm]

Yes but what kind? Fast aerials? Single jump aerials? Air dribbles?

[unborn citrus]

should i speed flip sooner? like, before the first pad?

[unborn citrus]

fast aerials and single jump

cant air dribble well

[cedar chasm]

If you can actually do everything you are telling me then mechanics aren't the problem here

[unborn citrus]

ill practice air dribbles then
is airrolling neccessary at my rank?

[merry wren]

what should i practice to get out of diamond

[cedar chasm]

? I never said that

[unborn citrus]

no
i just want to learn air dribbles for my own sake

[unborn citrus]

gotchu

[cedar chasm]

And that's the problem right there, you are practicing mechanics thinking they'll help you when they won't

[tacit marlin]

do you have any clips of ur attempts?

[plain elk]

nah

[unborn citrus]

alright thx
maybe i should fix my gamesense then

[vital smelt]

nice to have only if paired with good base skills and mechanics

[merry wren]

what should i mechs should i learn to get out diamond

[vital smelt]

master the basics, get flicks, aerials, airdribbles, backboard pass/defense, and get used to awkward positions

[oak drum]

can you give me tips

[vital smelt]

dont panic or rush the ball constantly, wait for favorable positions if any, its not all mechs but mindgames and adapting as well.
Understand your opponent,

[merry wren]

ok

[plain elk]

can anyone teach me how to freestyle pls?

[merry wren]

how do i practice backboard pass / defense and getting used to akward positions

[vital smelt]

im not good so take my advice but listen to others and higher skilled players more importantly
what do you need?

[plain elk]

can anyone teach me how to freestyle pls?

[cedar chasm]

By either doing training packs or free play

[merry wren]

can you give me a training pack for this?

[oak drum]

Oh

[vital smelt]

find opportunities ingames, use custom training packs, notice and analyze“awkward positions”.
Find what you panic or struggle against and train it

[cedar chasm]

What's your rank and how old are you?

[plain elk]

diamond 1 and 13

[vital smelt]

Im saying I can give you tips but it may not be the best or even incorrect, always take tips from multiple sources.
Ill help to my best abilities tho

[cedar chasm]

Are you able to call and also what mechanics are you looking to learn?

[plain elk]

sure alex

[plain elk]

controlled musty and doublle and triple reset

[cedar chasm]

Your tips seem to be quite good, what rank are you?

[vital smelt]

im like low plat high gold im getting back into the game so idk what for sure

[cedar chasm]

And whats your best shot now?

[plain elk]

i can hit a reset some times

[cedar chasm]

So you wanna move from "hitting a reset sometimes" to doing doubles and triples? Lol first of all to go for doubles you wanna master resets

[daring fog]

sombody carrie me

[cedar chasm]

Ah, I thought that you were way higher

[plain elk]

welll can you help

[cedar chasm]

You won't be able to do them

Especially in d1 since you don't have the required car control

[tacit marlin]

I mean if you can do single resets some times and you wanna hit them every time, it's just practice to build consistency

[plain elk]

bruh i can get the reset just cant contrill it

[vital smelt]

jakey try to be more specific, advice only helps when the person giving advice understands what you need

[plain elk]

i need help controlling after i get the reset

[vital smelt]

Is it the pop that you are missing, struggling to get back to the ball? Is ur car losing control or the ball is flying away

saying “help” doesnt help us

[cedar chasm]

So after you get the reset you are in a position where you canthit the ball?

[plain elk]

some times

[vital smelt]

thank you. Might I ask what rank you thought (i need the the boost 🙏 )

[plain elk]

alex sometimes i can hit the balll

[cedar chasm]

Going from inconsistent resets to doubles will be incredibly hard.

[plain elk]

welll can you help me hit resets consistently

[cedar chasm]

I'd say champ and above because the advice seemed pretty good

[vital smelt]

I think my gamesense is decent, i just never tried to get better skill/mechanicaly

[plain elk]

well can you help me hit resets consistently

[cedar chasm]

If you can get a mechanic sometimes just try to copy the attempts where you do get it, I can't help you to become more consistent because it's impossible, I can only help you learn new ones

[vital smelt]

My best advice to you jakey is analyze what foes wrong like what alex said. Often look at clips and /or replays of yourself to understand what happened

Alex what is your 2s rank?
Im struggling to enjoy 2s solo qing and it seems the only way to win consistently is a duo or to carry(which i cannot do)

[cedar chasm]

It's d3 atm

[vital smelt]

I like solo qing but it is so hard to play around erratic plat players and diamonds that I cannot compete with

Like I try to adapt to their gameplay but they just keep doing random stuff😭 are you suffering the same thing?

[tacit marlin]

i can look at a replay of urs if u want

[cedar chasm]

Yup, that's just how it is. Every player below champ have the stupidest decision making and for some reason it keeps working

[vital smelt]

Maybe next season. Im in diamond right now because of luck and previous season ranking and every game is just “how are you even diamond”

[cedar chasm]

There's so many times where they'd go for something and I'd say to myself "there's no way he actually goes for this" and they do, even when that thing is in favor of me and not them lol

[vital smelt]

Im hoping to place low plat next season so I can actually play the game lol

[tacit marlin]

that's even better tbh, analyzing replays where u vs. ppl a little better than you is best

also I'm sure they say "how are you even diamond" to literally anyone

[vital smelt]

this and when i try to pass to them or let them have it THEY DONT TAKE IT

Yeah but i understand when it comes to me, I am horribly inconsistent

[oak drum]

Ok

[vital smelt]

Ill try to get a decent replay where im not just flying around like a silver
Ik replays are the best when you make mistakes but im just avoiding replays where i can easily see mistakes to save both of us some time

[cedar chasm]

Happens to anyone, sometimes I play like GC, sometimes like c1

[somber sigil]

yo would you be able to help lawyer with getting out of plat

[vital smelt]

Id like to help lawyer as well but he hasnt told me what he’d like advice on

[frosty otter]

i just got paired against a diamond while being gold

man this is sad

[clever mason]

learn speedflipping, shadow defending, being able to hit shots wherever you are on the map, and boost conserving

your still plat so you don’t need to learn any mechs

[oak drum]

I mean for aerial control

[oak drum]

I'm learning it for fun

[clever mason]

aerial control is useless in plat

[clever mason]

you’ll never rank up ill just tell you that much

[gusty sandal]

I will now queue into a match and not press a single button and I will see if it works

[oak drum]

Ik, I play on switch lite with 20 fps on a good day, I've given up on ranking up

I'm just trying to learn soemthing that interests me

[clever mason]

you must not understand what mechs are

[clever mason]

by him saying “you don’t need mechanics” meaning you don’t need to do fancy stuff like airdribbling, flip resetting, flicking, etc

he’s implying you don’t need to do all of that to rank up

in the lower ranks

you could probably get to champ with only the basic mechs

[gusty sandal]

Firstly that was sarcasm and no i do but he said none and driving forward is a mechanics so just don't say none and it will be good

[clever mason]

if you say so

[gusty sandal]

You can get gc

[clever mason]

with randoms? probably not

the main key to ranking up is just learning the basics of the game and mastering them

and grinding 1s

[gusty sandal]

Have you tested?

Can you confirm its not true?

[clever mason]

i mean randoms are horrid

so if none of you at all have any mechanics in champ

there is a very low chance you’ll rank up

[gusty sandal]

Why?

[gusty sandal]

None is impossible again

Well actually no but without boosting pretty near impossible

[gusty sandal]

Wdym?

[gusty sandal]

You can learn whatever you want just don't focus only in that

[gusty sandal]

Wait your d3 in 2s and peak d3 in 1s?

[oak drum]

I know, but it's seems like I'm not make any progress on any of the aspects

[gusty sandal]

Just play passive and only aggressive when needed

[gusty sandal]

How long have you practiced?

[oak drum]

50 hours give or take

I never really timed it

[gusty sandal]

And mostly d3 if your d3

[gusty sandal]

Practicing what?

[cedar chasm]

do you not know what atm means? peak 2s rank is c3 div 4 just not playing comp anymore

[oak drum]

Primarily aerial control, with moderate practice of ground dribbles, and a bit of practice for air dribbles

[cedar chasm]

stop tryna play smart, you obviously know what both me and the other meant by mechanics

[gusty sandal]

Ok, but i can't know if your playing comp or not

Even if you say atm

[vital smelt]

yeah I just play too passively and pretty passive when I go "aggressive"
