Time

I have tried for 1 year maybe I just bad thou

[proven cape]

Looking for someone to help me air dribble on kbm

[gilded finch]

About 20 hours to be able 2 start doing it slightly then after that just slightly more consistent I've done it for about hundred hours just training that alone and I score them 8/10 but still not perfect

[fickle needle]

oh so about a week and a half or less?

[gilded finch]

Yh

But that's if ur only learning that

What rank ru

[fickle needle]

champ

[gilded finch]

Nice

Same btw i guess u smar player?

[gilded finch]

I can only early tmr maybe not at all

[fickle needle]

alright

[gilded finch]

Dm for now

[icy nimbus]

100 hours on air dribbles.

Is INSANE.

[gilded finch]

If u wanna be really consistant

Like really consistant

[icy nimbus]

You should be able to perfect air dribble HOLY

[icy nimbus]

More like 40 hrs bro 🙏

[gilded finch]

And I'm half talking abt time gap in it

[icy nimbus]

100 is wild.

[gilded finch]

Not just leaving it

Learning*

And theres fast slow high

[icy nimbus]

Yeah 40 hrs.

60 hrs for perfect air dribbles

[gilded finch]

Diff for sm ppl and it took me 50 hrs for my 1s

And I js do em for fun so I added in that time cus it made me more consistent

[icy nimbus]

What were you?

Like rank

[gilded finch]

I thought mechs made me better i was plat 3-3

[icy nimbus]

🤷

Welp idk

Can you at least reset now?

That's what I'm trying to do

[broken gyro]

For free

[valid trench]

what in specific

whats the question

[serene basin]

DM if you're looking for a coach :)

[cyan sage]

Are you free? 🙂

[agile blade]

bro why is it like niche to knowing how to speedflip in gold

lit all my opponents in 1s be speedflipping and getting the ball on my side every time smh

[placid drift]

not plat tho

[brazen oxide]

If they're consistently getting to the ball faster than you in gold, they either aren't gold or you are extremely slow in your normal kickoff

[broken gyro]

Can a free coach train me i suck im gold 2 with 600 hours

[brazen oxide]

This includes not making a mistake often

[placid drift]

ur cooked bro

[timber umbra]

Chest

[pure pawn]

quote of the day , (tip of the day ) ,

Arent you gc1

[topaz bane]

It's helorious how these Diamond players feel attacked when you "take the ball away," dribble in the air, and score a goal. After that, they just troll the game, even though you scored - these should get banned straight away

[valid trench]

no its a valid reaction if your tm8 is ballchasing and ruining your plays

“Take the ball away” like what😭 ur literally saying you’re stealing his possession

[topaz bane]

""""""

there is no reason to not play anymore

like a kid cry

[valid trench]

True but tm8s dont just stop playing after you make 1 mistake you mustve been annoying him all match

[topaz bane]

dude

it was the first kick off, the game just started, he failed his kick off cuz he cant speed flip so i took the ball to the wall and goal ? like where is the problem, thats why i wrote "i stole his ball" cuz i didnt at all like it depends how u look at the situation

And i wrote nothing. I mean, i did goal what should i write? he just instant stops playing and he tried to score in our goal ?? for me its typical diamond kid lobby

[valid trench]

I was assuming this happened often since you were talking about diamond players in plural

but that kickoff situation is probably a very tilted tm8 from his previous matches💀

Rage quit

[topaz bane]

idk its weird

[mellow crow]

Hey, I'm a plat 1, and am looking for coaching, plz ping me if you can help

[fluid jasper]

can anyone teach me speed flip

[timber parrot]

You na?

Yo I need 1 more for 3s im D2 an my hommie D3 or champ1

[chilly flint]

anyone need a coach or help climbing dm me

[cerulean peak]

Guys is there a reason im stuck in plat3 when I’ve been a consistent diamond 2-3 for a year or am I just cooked

[brazen oxide]

At the beginning of a season your rank may be lower than normal

[cerulean peak]

Okay because last season I hit c1 a few times and im baffled at how im stuck in plat 😭

[brazen oxide]

Soft reset + smurfing + more party queues makes it hard sometimes

[brazen oxide]

What about your duels rank?

[cerulean peak]

Plat/diamond is such a hellhole

[cerulean peak]

I don’t touch 1v1

[brazen oxide]

If you’d like to improve faster you should try it

[cerulean peak]

If I was to guess maybe plat 2

[cerulean peak]

Nah it annoys me because I have no one to put the blame on 😂

[brazen oxide]

Guilty

Thats when you blame the opponent

[cerulean peak]

Fr bro

I can’t risk getting banned again next time is permanent

1v1 is off the cards for a long time

[valid trench]

playing in a few ranks lower can be tough cause you don’t know how to play against them

once you figure that out you ll carry yourself out again

[random sapphire]

mechs i needa practice for champ? i’m going from d2 to 3 over n over

[brazen oxide]

How mechanical are you already?

[random sapphire]

i can air dribble/ kinda flip reset n im good at pre airel blocking n sometimes redirects

[brazen oxide]

You won’t need a single one of those things

[valid trench]

not really new mechs starting to get used between those ranks, its mostly the speed and consistency of the basics

[brazen oxide]

I would know because I got there without them, I used flicks and accurate power shots or just aerial shots in general

You try to avoid pre jumping whenever you can

[random sapphire]

well i play with randoms n for example td i went from d2 to d3 and back down bc it felt like we kept playing smurfs the way they were always pre jumping every 50 basically always being there

[severe jetty]

Im at a very weird situation rn. I need help on Controller. Im Gold 1 rn and I can air dribble, flip reset, and hit 150+ ground pinches, but i suck at hitting open shots. I have the default settings on. Any tips?

[valid trench]

that sounds like c1 tbh. in c1 everyone insta dives no thinking

[severe jetty]

Im stuck in gold because of my ground skills

[brazen oxide]

Wider turns, training packs, and 1v1 practice

[buoyant pendant]

then fix your ground skills dog

[severe jetty]

How bro

[random sapphire]

i think it’s mostly unranked people and i’m getting unlucky games im js not used to players in champ yet so idk how to play bc i either win by sm or lose by sm

[severe jetty]

Any training packs In mind?

[valid trench]

that list is so cap

[severe jetty]

I have clips

[brazen oxide]

I’m not sure, but there are so many examples you can find, just find a rookie shot accuracy training pack

They’re everywhere if you look for them

[buoyant pendant]

lookup "wayton pilkin dribble" "air roll shots" and "bounce dribbles" on youtube and find tuts

[severe jetty]

K ty

[buoyant pendant]

and if you struggle with open nets and power shot accuracy ill give you a training pack that i use

[valid trench]

important thing is just maintaining speed in plays. they instant challenge everything so you can’t kill the balls momentum to try control it cause you will get dunked

[severe jetty]

Pls

[valid trench]

send in #gameplay-highlights

[severe jetty]

K

[buoyant pendant]

42BF-686D-E047-574B

[brazen oxide]

But I think if you learn to release quickly you can have an advantage (if you have lots of space)

That takes mechanical skill though

[buoyant pendant]

if this one is too hard i can give you a different one for now

[valid trench]

wdym release quickly?

[cyan sage]

that’s just na icl

[random sapphire]

preciate it

[brazen oxide]

Catch and release flicks, bounce dribbles, catches to 50s

[valid trench]

eu too in that rank

[cyan sage]

all of champ and low gc is insta dives😭

that’s what i’ve noticed

[dapper linden]

can sm1 help me get good im kb,m

[valid trench]

oh yeah but controlling the ball and instantly flicking at high speed is crazy hard tbh, like you said

for me as a 2s main at least

[brazen oxide]

Yeah I play lots of 1s and that’s what I needed to learn to get out of c1

[valid trench]

real but in gc1 they start to respect a beat more is my experience

they wont come diving from across the field if they know i will be there first

[buoyant pendant]

👍

[valid trench]

like in the rest of champ

[brazen oxide]

I will be

[cyan sage]

they sometimes do tho

it’s crazy if they’re down like 2 they just go monkey mode

[brazen oxide]

They revert to their c3 primal instincts

[valid trench]

its a good skill to have imo, most are 2s mains and lack ground skills like that

[valid trench]

real

[brazen oxide]

Now I lack everything a 2s player has

[buoyant pendant]

i cant wait to get to high ranks where they do a full 360 from being smart to doing dumb things on purpose to catch you off guard :D

[severe jetty]

#gameplay-highlights

[livid spade]

What ive learned while in diamond is that they just fold under no pressure

[left wadi]

[vale wraith]

can someone give me some tips or help me to learn directonal air roll (im a fast learner i learned air dribble in g2 and double tap in g3 and im kinda getting the hang of directional air roll)

[gusty sandal]

Are you a freestyler?

[vale wraith]

Im like plat 2 and basically I just play and learn the game to rank up I dont care about showing off I js think if I learn directional air roll it'll be easier to rank up

[gusty sandal]

Can you shoot the ball into the net with accuracy and power?

[vale wraith]

with accuracy yes with power im learning it and ive improved

ive improved a lot in a week

[gusty sandal]

Well its good to learn yes but in plat i don't think your going to know when to use it well

[vale wraith]

well my friend learned it in plat 2 and he went like straight to d2 and also I feel like theres nothing to learn any more like i hit a dead end

[gusty sandal]

There are a lot of things to learn in plat

[gusty sandal]

Also was your friend stuck in plat before learning directional air roll?

[vale wraith]

yeah kinda

[vale wraith]

can you give some examples so I can learn them?

[gusty sandal]

I can look at a replay of yours if you want me to point the things you should probably learn

[frosty swallow]

everyone says this, but it genuinely is muscle memory. aslong as you know the basics you will find yourself doing them when using directional air roll (tornado spin, reverse tornado spin, ect.)

[gusty sandal]

Can say plenty but it isn't going you help much probably bc idk you

[frosty swallow]

controlling the ball over booming it, also just not missing it

[vale wraith]

I played yesterday with my d3 friend that is the same friend that learned directional air roll at plat 2 and I wasnt really falling behind I made maybe 1 mistake in the finals of the diamond tournament and in some games I had more score than him

[vale wraith]

idk what those 2 things you said in the examples are

[frosty swallow]

https://youtu.be/NTOBUcqFLVs?si=UwtuzlxoZLvjoPMY

this is the video that helped me EXTREMELY when learning directional air roll

[vale wraith]

ok thanks ill go check it out

also cool pfp

[frosty swallow]

but its not a requirement for diamond

[gusty sandal]

Score means little to nothing

[vale wraith]

oh ok

[cyan socket]

Any gc+ Can give me tips maybe look at a replay or something im champ 1

[limber inlet]

sure

[naive moat]

can anyone please go over my replays and/or give me coaching please? my peak in 2's is plat 2 div 3 and in 3's its plat 1 div 3 (im a 2's player mainly but also do 3's alot)

Coaching for free!

[frosty turret]

what do I need to go from champ to gc?

[tacit marlin]

depends on what you're lacking

[minor siren]

i need a coach i got no mic gold 3 hardstuck

[hasty mountain]

I can play with ya

[valid thunder]

Yo can someone give me an tip to get better at powrshots

[hasty mountain]

Training packs

[valid thunder]

Ight

[hasty mountain]

Thats best that helps u

[hasty mountain]

Just search power shots training packs on tiktok

[valid thunder]

I use prejump.com

[gusty sandal]

Whatever your weakness is probably

[daring summit]

beating everyone else to the ball

with controlled touches

[devout chasm]

lets create a ball chaser huh xD

[daring summit]

well thats a fast way to hit gc

[gusty sandal]

Depends on player again

[tacit marlin]

beating opps to the ball doesn't make you a ball chaser

[devout chasm]

beating everyone to the ball is kinda bad advice

[gusty sandal]

Opponents and everyone are two different things

[devout chasm]

people will take that idea and start going for balls they shouldnt go for

[tacit marlin]

eh i assume he didn't think much about the wording

[gusty sandal]

We are talking about rl players here

We aren't really smart

[daring summit]

you could still hit gc doing that

thats how gc2 players play

[devout chasm]

how come

[daring summit]

it is meta to cut off everyone

[devout chasm]

cause they are mega fast at going up, staying at supersonic and usually hit the ball into the direction they want to

[gusty sandal]

"Beat everyone when you need to beat everyone"

[devout chasm]

cant expect a champ to do that

[fluid elbow]

ur point

[fickle pollen]

yo guys genuinely how do i play ranked correctly all of my team8s have 1/8th of my skill and cant even hit the ball and im stuck in silver 3 div 4

[gusty sandal]

What?

[daring summit]

there is no good way to explain your issue

[minor siren]

alright

[gusty sandal]

I mean it is silver...

[fickle pollen]

yea and i cant leave it cuz my team8s dont even let me score

[daring summit]

the real question is who is c3 plus in 2s rn and whats to queue ranked chaos

[gusty sandal]

Wrong chat

[daring summit]

wants

[gusty sandal]

#looking-for-group

[daring summit]

they dont have it in looking for group yet

[devout chasm]

im down

[fluid elbow]

never blame ur tm8s for the issue that u can rank up

[gusty sandal]

You could just say 3s but want 3 players

[fluid elbow]

the only problem is urself

[daring summit]

that aint how it works

you can say 3s and people think its a 2s post

[fickle pollen]

last match 5 open nets i scored 1 4 other times team8 thought he could shoot it and just shot it at the wall

he was never in net and i saved like 8 goals and let 3 in

and i lost 3-1

[fluid elbow]

still thats just one mate

[fickle pollen]

all of my matches so far have been like this

i got a good team8 2 times so far and we won

[daring summit]

then learn how to 1v3

[fickle pollen]

i cant even think of why we won

[gusty sandal]

@fickle pollen I am like 90% sure that if I see you play your going to miss the ball plenty too

[fickle pollen]

maybe it was because my team8 could hit the ball

[fickle pollen]

no cuz i dont go for it when i would miss it

i missed like 8 times max on my last 40 matches with my friend

[daring summit]

so you leave the ball wide open for a chal

[fickle pollen]

no my team8 has the ball when im not with it

but he just shoots it off the wall and the opps get it

[daring summit]

does the ball never go in the air

[gusty sandal]

We are talking about silver here, they are going miss open nets all the time

[fickle pollen]

every 2nd time its in the air i score off of it

[daring summit]

then you should be winning

must be a game error

[fickle pollen]

i am when my team8 isnt saboating me

[devout chasm]

even champ and gc1 miss open nets more often than you'd expect

[fickle pollen]

im winning every 2nd match cuz thats when i get normal team8s

[fluid elbow]

besides me

[devout chasm]

so never?

[fluid elbow]

2-3 misses in the last 30-40 matches

not bad

[gusty sandal]

So you should be slowly going up or slowly going down?

[gusty sandal]

Impossible

[daring summit]

i gotten like 30 misses my last 7 matches of chaos but i feel like i recover fast enough to where it doesnt matter

[devout chasm]

cappin stats

[fickle pollen]

im slowly going up but every 3rd win in a row i get someone on an alt account that can triple flip reset

[fluid elbow]

not cap,

u can just be really accurate with ur shots

[fickle pollen]

last guys in teslas beat us to 15-0 they were flip resetting everywhere

[devout chasm]

the stats are bs lets be honest

[daring summit]

i mean some silvers can flip reset

[devout chasm]

not saying ur a bad shooter

[gusty sandal]

Open nets isn't really that you can't score them its more its stressing

[fickle pollen]

ive seen people 5 ranks above us do 5x worse things than those ppl in teslas

they were doing things that i only ever see in tiktok videos

[fluid elbow]

yeah thats what i mean, im pretty much never nervous

[daring summit]

btw we aint talking about missing shots right? thought we were talking about just missing the ball in general or not doing what you intentionally wanted to do

[fluid elbow]

just relax chill and play the game

[gusty sandal]

I meant literally open nets

[fickle pollen]

also guys are there better ways to dash

like more speed / less time spent dashing in the air so i can turn

[daring summit]

chain dashing

[gusty sandal]

Why do you want to know?

[fickle pollen]

because 3v1ing is not nice in 2v2 ranked and i need to know more than all of them combined to win

[gusty sandal]

In silver that is not much

[daring summit]

well the average silver player just joined the game

[fluid elbow]

wave dash

[gusty sandal]

Just hitting the ball into the net is more

[daring summit]

well nvm they have to fall to that rank because you start in plat

[fluid elbow]

double wave dash so when u first dash the land ur car will point up a little upcthen dash again

[devout chasm]

seeing how you keep coming up with excuses I think thats the real reason you're not ranking up. Its a mindset game.

[gusty sandal]

You start in gold

[daring summit]

well high gold i guess

[gusty sandal]

It should probably be like gold 3 division 3

[daring summit]

i dmed you velcro

[fluid elbow]

everyone under diamond always blames tm8s when the real reason are themselves

[devout chasm]

its gold 1

[daring summit]

i blame my tm8s a lot and my self

[gusty sandal]

Everyone*

[daring summit]

you start at 600 mmr

[fluid elbow]

and then go to 1k

[daring summit]

what rank are you serto

[gusty sandal]

Diamonds and champs blame their teammates the most

[fickle pollen]

they steal the ball from me when i can score and then we loose the game cuz they shoot it at the wall at mach 3 and it ricos back to our net and the opp with max boost just boosts onto it

[daring summit]

washed gcs blame there tm8s the most

[fickle pollen]

then my team8s leave thats usually the way it works

[daring summit]

astral you seem like a good chaos player

[fickle pollen]

guys how do i post looking for group

[fluid elbow]

mostly under champ,

above its rarely seen

[daring summit]

right above gameplay tips channel

[fickle pollen]

yea but i cant post plain text like whats the command or where the button i click

[daring summit]

do /

and it will guide you

[devout chasm]

whos in for chaos ranked

with Human and I

c3+

[rocky wolf]

Can someone check my clip in #gameplay-highlights

[gusty sandal]

Are you joking?

[fluid elbow]

its always diamonds or lower

maybe some chps but not many

[gusty sandal]

I will never play 4v4 unless I somehow get a third friend I play with

[gusty sandal]

What rank are you?

[gusty sandal]

There are many champs that blame their teammates for their losses

Champs are just toxic in general tbh

[weary ledge]

all ranks are

[gusty sandal]

Champs most

And high diamonds

[fluid elbow]

No the most are diamonds

[fluid elbow]

C2

[gusty sandal]

High diamonds and champs

[fluid elbow]

but mostly dismonds are the most toxic

everyone can agree

[jaunty quail]

yo u guys can tell me where can i find eus to try with for next rlcs szn im a french player peak 1750

[deep sage]

ya qui pour faire de la 3v3 rang diamant 2

[young wagon]

would anyone mind looking at a replay of mine and give me some advice im c2 div2

[gusty sandal]

Mostly high diamonds

[rich perch]

champs are more toxic 100%

[gusty sandal]

6mans maybe?

[fluid elbow]

diamonds more

[rich perch]

everyone who gets a ''purple'' rank starts to have a crazy ego

[fluid elbow]

diamonds and plats

[rich perch]

mate i can assure you i have played more hours in champ then u have

i would know

[fluid elbow]

yeah in ur own region

[rich perch]

im europe..

so are you xD

[fluid elbow]

Still champs are less toxic i saw more diamonds in the past be way more ego and toxic

[gusty sandal]

Everyone under gc and above average rank are insanely toxix

[rich perch]

i've rarely seen a toxic dia, champs on the other hand is like 60%+ are toxic

[fluid elbow]

not evrryone

[rich perch]

so are gc's i cant lie but not as much

[fluid elbow]

just say everyone is toxic lmao

[gusty sandal]

Mostly high diamonds its like 40%

[fluid elbow]

even ssls

[gusty sandal]

You say diamonds but not all diamonds are toxic so we all know what i mean

[fluid elbow]

same with champs

[gusty sandal]

We aren't talking about that though just which rank is the MOST toxic

Every rank is toxic yes but some are more than others

[dusty folio]

Diamonds ain’t even toxic

Most of them anyways

[devout chasm]

sent u a dm

[lethal gate]

I am plat 3/diamond 1 in 2v2, and i cant get out of the two ranks, what should i do

[limpid venture]

[devout chasm]

Holding reverse helps

And a better angle

Probably

[vestal robin]

Which way do pros hold their controller

Single finger r1 and l1 l2 r2 or putting one finger on each bind?

If anyone wants to help i can send a photo in dms

can anyone teach me heli resets

[tight steeple]

which rank r u guys

how to walldash

consistent

[lost plume]

Just go with your joystick right/left and spam x, or just spam x with joystick right if u in the wall right and left if u in the wall left ( more risky )

[devout pawn]

What if I can't spam fast enough

[lost plume]

Just dont do it.

[devout pawn]

I'm about the rank where it's becoming a bit important

[lost plume]

Champ?

[devout pawn]

C3

[lost plume]

You not need infinite dash if you can speedflip zap dash consistently.

[devout pawn]

I can zap dash but not consistently enough

[lost plume]

Just train, bc speedflip zap dash is more important and more easy than infinit dash

[devout pawn]

What other recovery things are important?

[lost plume]

When u get in the air, just do zap dash with your car like this "/" ( if u touch ground ) and after speedflip zapdash

[cyan sage]

ppl don’t rlly say but mena flips

[devout pawn]

No clue what that is

[dusky abyss]

anyone wanna play with me im gold3 almost plat

specifically with upfield rotates and defensive post rotates

[thorn ice]

guys how do i air roll i keep watching tutorials but none of them help me and its the only thing pushing me to not go to plat as i am a gold i have good gamesense

[mighty flax]

You dont need to take ball in the air until c2-3

[solar swallow]

anybody have tips to keep up in 1600 i always feel like im the worst player there

anything that could help me rank up and not lose 50 mmr every day

[blissful badge]

anyone got some keyboard tips?

[floral violet]

dm me if so

[thorn ice]

yes i do

[mighty flax]

No

[mighty flax]

Turn off keyboard safety

[blissful badge]

ok

[floral violet]

also no you dont i wouldnt say you really have to take it into the air until mid to high c3 earliest

most of the plays in 2s as you go up rarely are in the air

[blissful badge]

what will that change btw?

[mighty flax]

Makes your cars movement not get delayed or unregistered your inputs after going off wall or before pressing shift or q and e

[blissful badge]

oh ok ty

[mighty flax]

Bind your direction air roll you main to your side mouse. Frees up your fingers and you dont have to fat finger buttons while holding q or e

[solar swallow]

anybody on controller know what to do if your steering and aerial movement feels off, like it isnt as responsive

[blissful badge]

i was struggling with clicking q or e idk how i didnt think of that 😭

tysm

[mighty flax]

Yesir

[mighty flax]

Lower deadzone if its higher than .10

[mighty flax]

Dont go below .05 and its the controller dz not dodge

[solar swallow]

steering sense is 3.75, aerial sense is 3.81, controller dead is .20 and dodge and .91

i have a little stick drift so i messed with it a little bit

[mighty flax]

Ok those r bad

Youre on pc corrext

[solar swallow]

ye

i dunno how to work the deadzones so idk what helps

[mighty flax]

https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad go here, flick your sticks around and let them rest. What are the axis 0 and 1 numbers

You can dm a screenshot too

[solar swallow]

L STICK
AXIS 0
-0.08867
AXIS 1
0.02358

[mighty flax]

Ok so do it again

Whats the highest number you see

[solar swallow]

it depends, like sometimes its stuck on the right, left,

[mighty flax]

For those values, so if you see like a .12 or .11 whatever you want to go 1 above that. So in game your controller deadzone should be around .09-.10 based on those numbers

[mighty flax]

What con

[solar swallow]

xbox left stick

[mighty flax]

Pop up the stick, tilt it to a side and blow into it

[solar swallow]

is it bad that when it pops up it comes back down by itself lmao

[mighty flax]

Or get a q tip with Isopropyl alcohol and wipe around the base of the sticks

[solar swallow]

lowkey ima do that rn

[mighty flax]

No thats fine

[thorn ice]

then what do i focus on

[mighty flax]

Hitting the ball hard or shooting

Don’t commit if youre second man unless you have a clear opening or opportunity. Wait for your teammate to rotate out before going in @thorn ice

[chilly flint]

[buoyant pendant]

your holding yourself back

[faint veldt]

can someone coach me for free im bad and i cant air dribble

[buoyant pendant]

how many hours do you have, do you spend ample time in freeplay and do you actually think about what you are doing in game to upgrade your gamesense?

[wild summit]

i want to know too!!

[faint veldt]

someone please help me get better

[wild summit]

[faint veldt]

sorry

[main gull]

[buoyant pendant]

ya id guess you simply are not thinking through your actions and spend way to much time in actual matches compared to freeplay, mechs are important in 2025 to get gc

[wild summit]

what rank are u @buoyant pendant ?

[buoyant pendant]

anyywayy i may help in a bit but i gotta look at this replay first :DDD

[main gull]

I need a coach for basic aerial control and stuff

[minor oasis]

Anyone wanna teach me some freestyle mechs?

[oak drum]

Those can't just be taught like that

[minor oasis]

Why

[oak drum]

1. you already have to have a decent overall car control

[minor oasis]

Which I have

[oak drum]

2. you have to have learn't the basic mechs alr(freestyling wise), air dribbles, resets, ceiling shots, etc.

[minor oasis]

Also know how

[oak drum]

So what did you want to know?

[minor oasis]

Maktufs helis jakzes

That kind of stuff

[oak drum]

Shii, out of my skill range

[fresh light]

Can someone champ or higher run some 2s with me? Not sure why I’m hovering in plat 3-diamond 1.

[wind axle]

not sure why ur plat? just focus on the basics and youll get better

[fresh light]

Basics as in what? Anything specific??

[wind axle]

shooting,dribbling,flicks,ariels,car control theres lots of things in the basics to learn

[fresh light]

What about the gamesense side of things??

[wind axle]

well u dont need to be too gamesense

its good to know atleast some mechs

[fresh light]

Wow that’s a first for me

Alr I’ll just go grind basic mechs

Ty

[wind axle]

if your at plat level i wouldnt recommend learning mechs rn

[fresh light]

?

[wind axle]

youll cruise through plat and diamond if you focus on this

when u get around champ 2 ish then start to implement mechanics into ur gameplay

[fresh light]

Ok. What are rotations like in 2s? Should I even rotate at all in low rank 2s or just spam offense or defense?

[wind axle]

do u know backboard rotations?

backpost*

[fresh light]

Yes

[wind axle]

then do use it

but most people are brainless at plat tbh

just play behind ur tm8 and capitalise on ur opponents mistakes

[fresh light]

That’s the thing, when I drop to plat I get back to d1, but once I hit d1 I just can’t get back to d2.

[fresh light]

So should I just not commit?

[wind axle]

well just play with someone then

[wind axle]

just play passive

[fresh light]

Ok. How can I learn these basic mechanics quickly?

[chilly flint]

anyone need a coach or help dm me

[wind axle]

if ur on pc, use workshop maps, or just use training packs, overtime as well, as u get better, youll gradually aslo get better at the basics as well

[fresh light]

Ok thanks.

[outer roost]

anyone have any tips on breaking the habit of hesitating and not challing when i should? idk why but im playing scared and its making me passive n holding me back from hitting gc even tho im c3

[robust delta]

Hi, I'm GC1 and you're saying that you keep hesitating when you should be challenging. It's quite easy to break the habit, you just have to have confidence in your ability to challenge and how to gain opportunities from that challenge. It may take a bit to break the habit but it will help you win. You just gotta make sure the challenges are worth it meaning you don't leave your tm8 in a 2v1. Having confidence in your tm8 can massively help you as well, allowing you to challenge better. To summarize, all you need to do to break the habit is have more confidence in your teammates, be ready to adapt quickly after the challenge and have confidence in yourself. I hope this helps!

[outer roost]

one sec ill dm u wit a bit more details

[robust delta]

Alright!

[rigid fox]

HELP PLEASEEE

i need someone to teach me how the basics of areials

i cant even keep the ball up💔💔

[jade wren]

does anyone have some tips on keeping the ball on top of the car while dribbling? I've gotten pretty decent at moving forward if the ball lands right after i spawn it in free play.

[rigid fox]

i can only score arieals goals in heatseeker

[vital smelt]

I cant help to much but don't get overambitious. Learn to move the car in the air, get positions quickly, dont overcomplicate it. Only then incorporate the ball, simple touches, then hits with intentions, then finally the cool stuff if you want (or master the first two)

[rigid fox]

ighttt bettt

[vital smelt]

What rank are you?

[rigid fox]

uh

i dont have one....

[pure prawn]

anyone here ssl in 1s or gc 3?

[vital smelt]

Did you recently start? I'd say stick to the ground and only learn to the super simple aerials

[rigid fox]

no ive been playing but i only play heat seeker mostly but in heat seeker im crazy at defending arrieals

[marsh nest]

Don’t play 4s unless with a squad 🤣

[vital smelt]

😭

[marsh nest]

That’s the best tip I can give rn

[vital smelt]

Heat Seeker is fun, helps with aeriels as well

[rigid fox]

so can you try to teach me?

Ball goes in net

Personally I'd just get used to the game, make some goals, and try not to rely on others. If you are really set on finding a coach (which maybe say the same), find someone more qualified

To me it seems you are a somewhat new, pretty casual player. If you have a rank and goal in mind it'd be easier for me to give tips, but I'm not a comfortable skill level to coach

[jade wren]

does anyone have some tips on keeping the ball on top of the car while dribbling? I've gotten pretty decent at moving forward if the ball lands right after i spawn it in free play.

[vital smelt]

@lime ice @orchid finch @rain imp I can try to give tips but I need more than "help"

[lime ice]

wdym

[south oriole]

You need more than help?

Huh

[lime ice]

fr

[vital smelt]

I'd recommend watching yourself or others dribbles, noting what works.

I'll try to give tips but when you are not specific in what you need its hard to help.

[south oriole]

Ohh

[lime ice]

can anyone coach me to get better (im plat1)

[jade wren]

I would try and give you the specifics but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong either

[south oriole]

Well either way I got off so, maybe u can help me tmmrw if possible?

[vital smelt]

Can't coach, I can give the advice I have. There are plenty of higher skilled and more qualified players that pop in here. YOu may just have to wait for them though

[compact plaza]

Can someone coach plz im bronze 3

[lime ice]

can anyone coach me to get better (im plat1)

[vital smelt]

Would appreciate the specifics. A game could help but I'm trying to get better an analyzing games

[jade wren]

Thank you for the info i will watch some videos and compare them to me

[jade wren]

I'll watch some videos and compare them to me and see if i can notice the specific parts that I am messing up

[vital smelt]

@compact plaza and @lime ice Practice training packs, mostly the basics. Self reflect is the biggest thing; understanding what you did wrong, figuring out what to do better next time. If you have something specific for advice I can try, but don't rely on my tips

[lime ice]

💀 ive played so much training packs and i dont think it helped

[vital smelt]

Being more specific helps me give more tailored advice then throwing around general advice.

[vital smelt]

At first I felt the same. I changed to only practicing specific training packs in what I believed I lacked in. For example I struggled in awkward defense: Having to do quick aerials to intercept the ball, turning quicker and better positioning, unexpected power shots coming and having to quickly react/adapt.

[serene spade]

You don't have like a clip by any chance?

[jade wren]

No but I can try and get one rq

[serene spade]

ye go ahead and dm me

[jade wren]

Im getting medal set back up rq

[serene spade]

Wouldn't call that awkward defense, that sounds pretty standard. Except that if have unexpected powershots incoming, why didn't you expect that xD

[vital smelt]

I was trying to think what he'd understand and I lwk lost my train of thought 😅

[serene spade]

I'd say you can be proud to have realized by yourself that being awkward in defense is generally a positioning error 🙂

and not a mechanical one

[vital smelt]

I don't really know awkward defense. When I think of "awkward" anything, its whatever is awkward to the player-- positioning error like myself. Not unexpected, but shots that are unfavorable for your current position.

[serene spade]

Yeah, that's about what I would define awkward as as well. What I was saying is, many people, when they are like Hm, this ball is pretty hard to defend from here, they think they just have to crank up their mechs, like their skills in flying backwards or with weird camera angles, instead of changing the "here".

[vital smelt]

Yeah I was trying to provide an example while explaining that, but I failed horribly 😭 Maybe giving advice with a scrambled mind isn't the best..

Thanks for saying what I couldn't find! Are you a coach or sm giving advice?

[pallid pollen]

Bois, any tips here. Was playing probs best RL I've played ever, then suddenly 3 days ago it's like I forgot how to play. Touches, rotations, saves, shots, literally everything is just going "wrong". Still having the same issue, any ideas what to do?
-Bad GC1 player

[young wagon]

can anyone seriously help me get back to gc. i was gc a few years ago and cant get past d3 rn. everyone in ones says i should be alot higher

[vital smelt]

Sounds like just a bad day, happens. Don't look at is as a horrid day or loss of skill. I take it as a slow day, working on mechanics I'm putting off, mistakes I made in previous game or days, or just refining whatever I need to

[serene spade]

Not a coach professionally or anything like that, but I like tuning in here giving advice (or roasting bad takes) every once in a while, and I have a hobby team playing in a couple of leagues on not exactly an insanely high level, but I am the person doing the replay analyses and tactics and stuff there.

[vital smelt]

Performance isn't flat, fluctuates, sometimes extreme.

[vital smelt]

I'm trying to help out as much as I can. I do basically the same but am trying to work on replay analyses. Hard to help out when I'm only low plat, but I enjoy helping out this community in anyway I can-- I sometimes learn from helping others too

[serene spade]

If you play like [insert rank], you will get to [insert rank]. This is always true.

[serene spade]

Personally, I appreciate this a lot, especially as I saw you taking a step back on issues you felt like you didn't really have a good grasp on. How long have you been playing the game?

[vital smelt]

Why do you think you should be higher? In a few years, communities change a LOT, so does skill. It'll take some time to regain some skill but I believe in you getting champ.

[serene spade]

They didn't state he thinks they should be higher. They said everybody said they should be higher.

[young wagon]

games where my teammate leaves or stops playing i consistently win the 1v2

[vital smelt]

I played years back on my ps4, consistent diamond, peaked C1. Mostly played casually and didnt push to be better. I really wish I did

I'm now getting back into the game

[vital smelt]

thats just rocket league.. 😭

[serene spade]

Thats in 2s or in 3s?

[vital smelt]

1s and 2s, I NEVER played 3s hated solo queueing and just finding tm8s in this community

[young wagon]

its very hard to win when my teammates turn the ball over every touch and bump me away from the ball

[vital smelt]

🤝

[serene spade]

It's an excuse

[rocky bone]

Anyone wanna play 2s plat 3 btw us east

[young wagon]

how

[serene spade]

If you can 1v2 consistently, why does your teammate matter? You can just go for solo plays all the time and score goals.
(Which is not the playstyle I generally recommend, but if you are that good, you can do it to climb some ranks)

[vital smelt]

You just have to adapt to their playstyle. Most my 2s games are prayers. Sometimes pointing it out or insisting on them adapting helps. I just start throwing pass, playing more passive or aggressive, trying to make them play as a team.

[vital smelt]

Exactly^ I find it as an opportunity to grow. Not "my tm8 throwing ggs ff". I take it as a challenge to improve, its also very fun imo

[serene spade]

If you think, your teammate is a problem, well, there is two players as bad in the opponent team, which means you get balls donated all the time as well and they bump their teammates away from the ball all the time as well, but because there is two, the chance of it happening also doubles. So what exactly is the reason you dont win those games?

[vital smelt]

It really forces me to think of encounters, positioning, and not only what im doing but what they will do as well.

I love mind games and adapting. Bumping and demos to push attention off the ball and on me, understanding how my opponents play and finding flaws, finding my own flaws yk

[vestal palm]

can anyone help me airdrible and flip reset more consistantly??

[serene spade]

Dont forget trust. If your teammate misses a save for example, but you could have also gone for it suboptimaly, just chose to not double commit, its not your fault, and you in fact played correctly. If you had double commit, they would just score 10 seconds later (if they are good), which you could have prevented if you had trusted your teammate and not double committed.

[vital smelt]

But to be a previously higher rank and to hear others saying he should be higher would most likely make him think the same (especially knowing how rl players are). I didn't ask it has a response to him saying it, but as a nudge wondering if HE thinks he is and why-- hoping he'd reflect and find anything useful.

[vital smelt]

My advice is noting what works and watching tutorials, sorry for generic advice.

[serene spade]

I certainly agree, but why would you want to imply such things if you can make your point without doing so?

[vital smelt]

Yeah I often feel I put too much trust in tm8s but I will continue to do so. It works sometimes, other times backfires. I'd rather do that then play selfishly on my own

[serene spade]

It is a skill to identify what balls your teammate likely is able to deal with and what they are not able to.

[vital smelt]

I thought the same, I guess its the way I think; I think it's easier for me to understand and flow. Knowing others can't read my mind or intentions, I'll keep that in mind.

[young wagon]

I honestly think i put to much trust into teammates because if im expecting a pass and they js miss the ball then its js gonna go right into my net. and if im dribbling up and they hit the ball right off my car and turn it over theres ntn i can do ab it

(both those are scenarios that happened today)

[vital smelt]

A skill I often fail in, but I like believing in others and challenging my tm8s. Maybe I should save that for friends and consistent tm8s..

[lament venture]

How do I get better game sense? I’m plat 1 have good mechanics but okay game sense

[serene spade]

People can just easily dismantle you saying "Well, I didn't say that" and now your argument is wasted.

[vital smelt]

I use that as chances to improve my awareness ( which is horrid ). I also mentally split the map into 3 sections, imagining a risky zone, safe zone, and no go zone; All varying depending on how good I think my tm8 is and the current situation

[vital smelt]

I dont really understand the point in that. To me it's a diversion and sign they aren't understanding my point. So they didn't understand because I'm not clear enough or they are a bigot.

[serene spade]

In 2s you have to be open for passes in a rather conservative manner, cause even if they pass and you dive for a 50, the other opponent has a free shot. To attribute your teammate the ability to pass so you dont have to 50 is a little ambitious in diamond and most of champ elo.

[vital smelt]

Reflect, reflect, reflect. Understand how you and others play in each game. I constantly think of what each person would do in each scenario. I'd also watch replays and take notes but I suck and am not striving to improve on that for some reason

[serene spade]

I am sure that these things happen occasionally, then you get scored on once because of it in the worst case. Things like this happen. Rarely, but they do happen.

[lament venture]

Thank you

[vital smelt]

If you need further explanation or examples lmk!

I'm surprised I haven't seen you that much Maior. You seem a man of good standing.

[serene spade]

So, in other words, you are so certain that your implication is correct that even if the other person states that they didnt imply that you just discredit that as malicious. Yeah, I don't really know if that is a good idea...

[serene spade]

Ye, I had to take a break from Rocket League for a couple of weeks, and so I also wasn't hanging out in here too much in the meantime.

[vital smelt]

Hmm. I sometimes have trouble understanding what I am saying because I know what I'm saying but unsure what it may sound like. Apologies if I sound arrogant or rude in any way. I meant I take a guess, say it, and hope they understand my intentions. If I am wrong in any way I will accept that. But if they seem to be in bad faith I will try to deny or confirm that, entertain the conversation until so. Then end the conversation if they are being hard headed and not wanting to understand what I'm saying.
Hopefully that fully displays what I mean, if not let me know what to elaborate on

My head is extra jumbled right now. So my words may be even more confusing as usual.

[compact plaza]

ANY COACHES?????

[vital smelt]

I can't coach. But I can give advice to the best of my abilities

[pallid yarrow]

champ three might be the death of me

[cyan sage]

how to beat champ players smurfing in plat lobby?

[pallid yarrow]

😭

[cyan sage]

he beat me by 2 pts 4-6 in 1's

[pallid yarrow]

like was he champ in something else or

cuz like i’ve hit champ 3 in twos and only diamond one in ones

major this is gonna be one long message

[cyan sage]

he was champ

[serene spade]

Yeah, many people struggle with this kind of empathy of being able to understand how other people might perceive the own statements. I wouldn't claim that I am able to do so either, in fact, especially if you have to do with people that have kinda unreasonable claims, you cannot assume the interpret you're argument against them in a reasonable fashion most of the time. That is why my strategy in these cases is to stick to objectivity, i.e. not assume anything they didn't state (or things that are effectively the same just in other words).

Like for example, you said: #gameplay-tips message
Why do you think you should be higher? In a few years, communities change a LOT, so does skill. [...]
If you had instead said:
In a few years, communities change a LOT, so does skill. [...]
Would you agree, that that would communicate the same point you are trying to make?

As another example, I said: #gameplay-tips message
If you play like [insert rank], you will get to [insert rank]. [...]
I did not imply that they thought they would play like gc. Even if I say "If you play like gc, you will get gc", I don't imply that. But I do get across my point pretty clearly, at least imho.

Sry if I'm yapping, but I implied you might be able to understand what I'm getting at 🙈

[pallid yarrow]

like in twos or in 1s

[vital smelt]

I doubt anyone can beat someone 2 rank above them. I'd take it as a chance to improve and learn the difference between a champ and plat player. A question I'd propose to myself is, "How can I close said gap?"

[cyan sage]

he was a tourney winner

[serene spade]

I dont think that is the issue at hand. I think the issue is that they encountered a champ tourney winner in a plat 1s lobby. That is not 2 rank above them.

[pallid yarrow]

oh then he was probably just champ in twos or threes

not really smurfing just doesnt play 1s

[timber umbra]

Yo anyone diamond and with a brain wanna duo use

[serene spade]

Not even necessarily. Plenty of people are champ tourney winners but never hit champ in ladder, just bc they played tourney with friends that were higher.

[cyan sage]

idk he hit a few flip resets

[pallid yarrow]

yea i’ve been in gc tourneys and ssl tourneys

[vital smelt]

I like what you did, no idea how you did that. I'm sorry for STILL struggling to understand you. I think I understand a point. I understand that assuming things doesn't add to the conversation, sometimes worsening it, but I like to do so. I will try not to express that in what I say and find more efficient ways of getting my point across.

[vital smelt]

I'll duo if you derank to low plat 🙏

[serene spade]

Well, let's put it like that. If you lost, its probably because your opponent was the better player, and the reason you were matched against him was that he was a similar rank in the specific ladder you were playing in, which is 1s if I understood the context.

[vital smelt]

I find players focusing on 2s and 3s, being a lower rank in 1s. But hitting a few flip resets or most mechanics doesn't correlate to a specific rank.

Nevermind my yap

[serene spade]

Fair enough. I don't like implying things, as you might have implied already, but that doesn't mean you cannot like doing it. But I definitely appreciate people thinking about stuff like that, cause that is how one improves one's own life, imho.

[lavish mason]

Same gng same

[pallid yarrow]

i’m c3 in twos and d1 in ones

[pallid yarrow]

get me outta here

[serene spade]

The average rank in 2s and in 3s is significantly higher than in 1s. Even people that focus on 1s are often higher in 2s.

[lavish mason]

Btw i have same rank in 1s also

[pallid yarrow]

well technically i’m plat cuz j havent done my placements

[lavish mason]

Ima prolly try to get mid champ this season cause i never had mental to play it

[pallid yarrow]

i suck at ones

[lavish mason]

I m playing way too passive in 1s

[serene spade]

The 200IQ play is realize that rank doesn't mean anything and start playing for fun instead.

[pallid yarrow]

same
