[low stirrup]

wanna 1v1

[gusty sandal]

What is your 1s rank?

[dapper holly]

i wanna 1v1 a diamond just to see the skill gap lol if ur in us

im in gold 3 (been up to p2)

[abstract bronze]

Guys I need help bad I beat diamonds and plats have proof of that also but like I’m plat 1 in duos I Carry all my teammates but I’m hardstuck gold 2 d1

Like the gold matches I have feels like there diamond it doesn’t make sense

I outskill them I can speed flip air dropped kuxir pinch ceiling reset have terrific game sense and ground mechanics for a plat but cannot get out of a gold

Can anybody please give me tips

I’m literally in gold one now

[quick sail]

sometimes, those mechs creates an overly pressure againts you than helping. Try slowing it down and focus on predicting ur opponents moves instead of preflipping and overcomitting your shots

In D2 1s, i see alota wall dashes and speedflips around as i just boost lightly to important touches, just to see how much they overreact to my shots

[abstract bronze]

Oh okay that kind of to be honest but like I can predict there shots like everything they do i can predict but it’s just the lucky goals the get most of the time

[pallid pollen]

You're not losing games if you're "predicting everything they do and only scoring some lucky goals" 🙂 Reality check a bit man

[quick sail]

not all shots are your fault, but what can be your fault is letting them get to that position in the first place, its not about saving all their shots and being RW9 (best defender in RLCS) but rather just not allowing them to get possesion and have time to shoot.

[gusty sandal]

Wait your 1 rank above me?

[quick sail]

yeah, im not as good as you think xD

I just have fun mostly, but i try my best to make as little mistakes as possible

[gusty sandal]

I mean i also wall dash but its just so insanely ez on kbm

[abstract bronze]

You have a point

[quick sail]

yeah but not heavily needed if your opponent is a ground player

thats just oppening ur net more

[gusty sandal]

I have met like 1 ground player...

Most of my goals are just open nets

[quick sail]

and all the air players are inconsistent, so youl be better of on the ground sometimes

[gusty sandal]

I literally got a opponent that was mad at me for scoring a open net and said in a sarcastic tone that I am so good to be scoring open nets

[quick sail]

Thanks!

[gusty sandal]

Can you shoot the ball into the net?

[fossil dust]

how to get to gc3 in 1s

[gusty sandal]

What are you in 1s?

[fossil dust]

gc2 div 3 my peak

[gusty sandal]

How do you get gc2 in 1s

[fossil dust]

keep possession, have good defense, patience when they chal in air and insta chal when u are on their side (if you can) idk

flicks are op tho

[gusty sandal]

I train flicks, dribbles and catches every time I play

[cyan sage]

wanna 1v1 later

[abstract bronze]

Yeah

[fossil dust]

what region

[gusty sandal]

Powerful with accuracy?

[cyan sage]

na

[abstract bronze]

Yeah

[fossil dust]

west central or east

[cyan sage]

west

[gusty sandal]

Then do that

[fossil dust]

ight but im in bed rn

whats ur current 1s rank

[cyan sage]

me too lol we can play tmr if u dont end up hopping on

[cyan sage]

d3 havent queued a single game lol

[fossil dust]

oh lol im currently gc1

[cyan sage]

alr yeah we can play whenenever

[fossil dust]

ok

[ivory shell]

Anyone tryna coach im champ 1 in 2s on ps5

[frail ridge]

Send me a replay

[lofty spade]

im genuinly struggling to rank up breh someone help

ive been carrying most games and i am ranking up but as soon as i hit d3 i go back to d1 idk how it happens but ya ive literally won champ tournaments but cannot even get to champ

[gritty sonnet]

Tournaments doesn't mean much, there are champs with gc tournament winners

[gritty sonnet]

If your carrying you won't be losing most of the time

[lofty spade]

hard when my last teamate lets in 2 goals bc he wants to type bs instead

[gritty sonnet]

Thats not every time and I said most of the time

Sometimes you just can't win bc we are human, we can't win always

[lofty spade]

i just wanna get champo

[gritty sonnet]

Observation and patience is key

[trail pulsar]

Guys is it worth working on my ground dribbles i am not very good at them but I find they are so boring to do i am silver 3 OCE if that helps

[gritty sonnet]

At your level no

[trail pulsar]

I can almost air dribble i am pretty good for silver 3

[gritty sonnet]

Lies

[trail pulsar]

Nah i can

I can do the setup but miss the ball by like a few pixels after I get it off the wall i am so close 😭😭

[gritty sonnet]

So you can't air dribble?

[trail pulsar]

I said almost

[tiny fjord]

@dire moat BANG

[gritty sonnet]

Not hitting the ball at all isn't almost

[dire moat]

https://tenor.com/view/australian-coach-coach-coach-celebrations-celebrations-australian-coach-celebrations-gif-22470287

[trail pulsar]

Pixels away EVRY single time

[tiny fjord]

Bro our tm8s were playing for the other team half the time lmao

[gritty sonnet]

Its not a air dribble if its just one touch

[dire moat]

Dave literally looked at my shot coming in from halfway across the field and absolutely dimed it back the way it went lmao

That was gold

[tiny fjord]

That was peak

[dire moat]

Literally

[elfin lintel]

I would like a coach i need to work on gamesense and positioning and see the mistakes i make.

[trail pulsar]

But u just stay under the ball no? (I know thats not 100% accurate but it’s the rough idea I think)

[gritty sonnet]

Rank?

[elfin lintel]

C1 atm but should be high c2 normally

[gritty sonnet]

Why not high c2 rn?

[elfin lintel]

I dropped from a few liars they were lying about their rank and i dropped some

[gritty sonnet]

So your not solo queueing?

[lofty spade]

bro screw my teamates

[elfin lintel]

Sometimes

[real valve]

Anyone wanna give me some gameplay tips from freeplay?

[gritty sonnet]

Well yea, thats the literal definition of a air dribble

[gritty sonnet]

What do you mean?

[lofty spade]

my teamates just sitting in net like whyyy\

[real valve]

Private match and I get some tips from gameplay

[gritty sonnet]

Watch the replay

[lofty spade]

HE MISSES AN OPEN NET THEN OWN GOALS

[gritty sonnet]

A ssl can miss a open net

A pro can own goal

[cyan sage]

hi

[lofty spade]

ya but in the span of 2 seconds?

[elfin lintel]

What rank are you

[gritty sonnet]

No idea

[cyan sage]

how do u not know ur rank?

[lofty spade]

not too sure about 5 meters away from the goal

[gritty sonnet]

Haven't played in 2 months

[cyan sage]

what have u been doing?

[lofty spade]

my teamates are hot garbage

[gritty sonnet]

Studying

[cyan sage]

dont blame ur tm8s

[lofty spade]

tell them to hit open nets and not own goal then

[cyan sage]

u should make up for their badness

[gritty sonnet]

The ssl i saw missing the open net misst it when it was 1 centimeter away from the goal

[cyan sage]

dont solo queue?

[lofty spade]

happens once a blue moon

not once 2 games

[cyan sage]

make up for ur tm8s badness

[gritty sonnet]

Don't take that the wrong way though

[cyan sage]

ima go play something cya

[gritty sonnet]

If your teammate has shot the ball to the opponents or misst the ball when the opponents are near, its not going to help much if you just challenge immediately

[elfin lintel]

But would anyone be able to coach me?

[lofty spade]

hard not to

[gritty sonnet]

A ssl probably not but it can happen

[lofty spade]

exactly

[gritty sonnet]

Adapt

[gritty sonnet]

Are you ssl?

Are you gc?

Are you champ?

[lofty spade]

may aswell be

also u aint helping much

[gritty sonnet]

Thats a total of 11 ranks above you if you count d1 as one

[lofty spade]

dont act like you dont blame teamates

[gritty sonnet]

Can't say right now bc I haven't played but before I blamed everyone but mostly myself

Though while I blamed like 80 to 20 your blaming 10 to 90 so there is a difference

[gritty sonnet]

A person with champ skill level wouldn't be diamond

[lofty spade]

well ill be champ soon

[gritty sonnet]

If the season has been going on for some time

[lofty spade]

everyone thats higher rank says i deserve higher rnak

[elfin lintel]

Lava what rank were you

Before

[gritty sonnet]

I said what you needed, you just didn't listen

[gritty sonnet]

I think c1

[elfin lintel]

Ok

[gritty sonnet]

Though i stopped playing before this season so its probably lower rn

[elfin lintel]

lfg a c3 to gc3 coach

[gritty sonnet]

Observations and patience is key and also when you feel like your teammate is garbage watch the replay

[zenith torrent]

If you deserved a higher rank, you’d be a higher rank. Forget what people say, because it doesn’t magically change your rank does it?

[fresh mauve]

What rank are you?

[viscid hornet]

after playing with a way too toxic ball chasing teammate for a couple days for a few hours that I met here, I've now lost my aggressive playstyle that led me to winning games with my friends. I play way too passive now and they end up having to do everything because I get nervous and hesitate every move I make, I throw too much now. I have no idea what to do. I'm D1.

[elfin lintel]

Im c2 but now c1

[fresh mauve]

Add me, I'm gc1 I could probably give you some advice, you avaliable rn?

[elfin lintel]

Not rn

[fresh mauve]

Add me and lmk when you're avaliable

[elfin lintel]

I sent you on discord

[lofty spade]

WHAT THE ACTUAL IS MY TEAMATES

850 points 1 goal ot game and this guy drives it into our own net

@gritty sonnet check gameplay highlights

tell me if this is normal

observations and patience my ass when im playing 1v3 every other game

[gritty sonnet]

Doesn't really tell me much tbh, i gotta see the whole game to actually say why he did it

[lofty spade]

cause he ass

still having to deal with this all the time

[gritty sonnet]

Your not 1v3 that often I know that for a fact

[lofty spade]

and its my fault im stuck

[lofty spade]

in ot i was tf

[gritty sonnet]

You are stuck bc of yourself

[lofty spade]

yes! my teamates own goaling ot is my fault

[gritty sonnet]

Firstly thats one game, secondly the mistake/on purpose itself is not your fault but how it lead to a goal/why he did it, CAN be your fault

[lofty spade]

well ill rank up eventually fs im better than my teamates so its a matter of times

[zenith torrent]

Seba could have certainly got a better clear in that clip, all I seen was two weak touches from him, one of which was passed to his teammate that wasn’t ready for a pass and was facing their own goal - pressure got the best of him.

[lofty spade]

spamming what a save after ?

[zenith torrent]

Disable the chat if it bothers you.

[lofty spade]

also

you can clearly see

the 2nd clear opponent car

drivng which way not towards the ball neither challenging

[zenith torrent]

What about it?

[lofty spade]

he cant chall

so free clear to my teamate whilst i get boost

[zenith torrent]

Your teammate wasn’t in position to receive a pass, you can take the ball with you to get boost.

[lofty spade]

either or

he still drove into our net

and missed a better clear making me awkward

[zenith torrent]

But you can’t help his actions, you can only help your own. In which case, would have been to simply take the ball with you to retrieve boost, that way you’re maintaining possession while your teammate can also be positioned properly for a pass, or you can do something with the play depending what happens from the opponents.

There’s blame on both parties here.

[lofty spade]

8/10 ragebait

[gritty sonnet]

This is why you can't be helped

[zenith torrent]

For real, he’s in complete denial.

[lofty spade]

i will rank up its not a question like

[viscid hornet]

like what? speak properly lol

[zenith torrent]

Then what’s your purpose coming to this channel? Because you’re not ranking up just sitting here moping about teammates.

[viscid hornet]

his pfp is a self portrait

[zenith torrent]

And you’ll probably rank up to your peak and then cry about teammates again when you’re no longer ranking up.

[gritty sonnet]

I mean you won't rank up further than that and then you will complain about teammates again

Blaming teammates a lot is a never ending cycle of disappointments

[lofty spade]

Well I'll see you in champ then

[viscid hornet]

8/10 delusion

[gritty sonnet]

You won't

[lofty spade]

Put money on it

[gritty sonnet]

Sure I can bet you everything i own

[lofty spade]

Bet

Want my PayPal

[gritty sonnet]

No

Bc it will never happen

[lofty spade]

Sure

I'll tag you when it happens

How much you bench? 🥀

[gritty sonnet]

Well i bet you that we won't see each other in champ

[gritty sonnet]

I don't do that

[zenith torrent]

I just been looking at your messages too, you are using the fact you won champion tournaments as a way to boost your ego - you know they’re easier to win right? You gain more MMR per tournament match you play than you would a standard match. Even then, I see you instantly lost your last two tournaments on the first round, teammates again? Those pests.

[gritty sonnet]

I said in the beginning that champs have gc tournaments winners so tournament winners doesn't mean much

[lofty spade]

LMFAO

Is that the 3s tournament

YOOOO NAH

I almost got banned LMAO

Cause this guy name is soup can't hang

And I or yourself afterwards and server thinks I'm tryna say something😭😭

[kind rapids]

Please don’t drive chal with no momentum for a demo right in front of your net

[lofty spade]

Where is the demo? I'm confused

[kind rapids]

You did a drive challenge right in front of your net

[lofty spade]

Ya but no demo

[kind rapids]

Yeah that’s why it’s bad

[lofty spade]

But idk where the demo is coming from

[kind rapids]

If you go supersonic through a drive chal you can get a demo that’s what makes it powerful + a small chance of winning the ball

[lofty spade]

Well I kinda had to go for the ball

[kind rapids]

But you only really want to do them when your teammates behind you and you can afford for the ball to go high or behind you

If you did a jump challenge it would have been a lot better

[lofty spade]

The teammate was missing all game so instead of flipping and having s chance of going out of play I wanted to stay close and try to make it pop high

Still doesn't explain why my teammate own goals but sure

[kind rapids]

I said jump not flip

Just tap jump and 50

It’s strong

[lofty spade]

At the same time my teammate bumped the guy into the back so I had less time to react

Ball*

[zenith torrent]

Seba, why do you own goal? And don’t give some random crap that you have never own goaled, because that would really show your denial more bolder than it is.

[kind rapids]

Its a little tougher because driving in the direction of the ball is easy

[lofty spade]

Buddy no one talking to you

[zenith torrent]

You’re in a public channel, therefore everyone can contribute to this conversation.

[lofty spade]

I mean ya fair but I think if no bump happened I would've had a better clear since you see the guy awkward

[zenith torrent]

So I ask again, why do you own goal?

[lavish mason]

Plus u have easier recovery eith wave dash after

[lavish mason]

That aint tuff

[lofty spade]

🥀🥀

[kind rapids]

Just do me a favour and look at the clip and imagine right at the 4 second mark if you just tapped X

That was the mistake in the clip from you

[lofty spade]

Ya I said fair

[kind rapids]

Obviously it’s an own goal

[lofty spade]

But that still wouldn't make much of a difference

Since my teammate betrays anyways

[kind rapids]

You got lucky if you were playing against a better player it would have just been in your net

You didn’t even touch the ball he just missed and hit the post

[lofty spade]

I do that most of the times but like I said didn't have much time to react and such

[kind rapids]

Yeah maybe just something you need to work on

Playing 1v1 helps with stuff like that

[lofty spade]

Nah that was intentional own goal after the game I added him and he just said slurs so ya

[lofty spade]

Hit plat 3 div 3 last season i think havnt donemy placements

[kind rapids]

What 2s r u?

[lofty spade]

Rn low d2

High d1

Just going up and down

[kind rapids]

How are they that close lolol you must actually be good at 1s

[lofty spade]

I'm a slower player

[kind rapids]

Usually it’s like a c1 is d1 in 1s

[lofty spade]

So I just wait on mistakes

I'm decently mechanical like

And I practice a lot of powerful accurate shots

[kind rapids]

Fair enough

[lofty spade]

So that's what wins mainly for me or even getting that 1 touch in the air for a ground to air dribble hitting it high waiting to hit crossbar and hitting it into the goal

Barely anyone saves that

@kind rapids check gameplay highlight

I hit that earlier with the jump only thing you were talking about

[kind rapids]

Yeah nice

Just try go for it more often until it’s not something you need to think about when you 50 obvs not 100% of the time but a decent amount of it

[dawn gale]

honestly solo q is a gamble but anyone truly deserving to be champ should be able to get more than a 50% win rate in diamond even if some games are needing to be carried. it may take a while and yes teammates can throw but at diamond it's 100% not an every-match thing and opponents will throw just as much. TLDR: dont focus on tm8s, focus on what you can do to guarantee a win with or w/o a teammate (p.s. i dont mean that as an excuse to ballchase)

or find a reliable duo

[lofty spade]

I mainly sit back wait for my teammate to chase and only go for a shot or clear tbf

I've played in champs lobbies ik what it's like and ya it is a difference but people throw for no reason just tilts meb for next couple games

[lofty spade]

I'd want someone consistent but a lot of people are not so it's hard

[dawn gale]

being passive isnt the most effective way to control the match tbh. yes be wary of mess ups from your teammate but also if you're confident that you're faster/smarter/more mechanical then abuse it, your goal should be to carry each match not just win. consistent rotations should put you in decent positions 90% of the time and knowing when to control, challenge, or leave it for your tm8 is critical

[dawn gale]

ik i have the same issue, but its not impossible to find

[dawn gale]

dont let it get to you at the end of the day its a number in a video game, one match doesn't decide how the rest will go. but also if you get tilted then know to take breaks and recenter, mentality is really important

id offer to duo but i haven't played in like half a year i only started up again about a week ago

[gritty sonnet]

What is a carry for you?

Being patient is really good in lower ranks

[dawn gale]

im not saying take every slightly open ball and rush up the wall, but making sure your own plays are consistent, maintaining control whenever there's an opportunity (including thought out bangs and clears), maintaining solid positioning, never letting the opponent have an easy shot if possible, and being the teammate you wish you had. Being patient is part of being a carry as its reliant on the fact that you are picking up your tm8's slack (if needed). yes, patience is good in lower ranks, it's good in every rank. but as with everything theres always a limit before it becomes detrimental. i'm trying to say not to stay back too much and only contribute when there's easy pickings, you have to be able to create those oppurtunities yourself as well

[kind rapids]

It depends on if you want to rank up or improve

[cyan sage]

if u want to rank up jus be the best in the lobby

[kind rapids]

[dawn gale]

ranking up comes with improvment, improvement comes with practice and mentality. the best someone can help another players improvement is general advice and guidance. more time on the ball also equals practice so 1s and taking control of matches is good for general improvement but i'd recommend casual first if u aren't used to staying on the ball as much as you can (without ballchasing ofc again i just mean setting the matches pace) so you arent throwing in ranked

[kind rapids]

I’ve retyped my reply like 6 times I give up

I agree

[kind rapids]

I think what some players get wrong is that they try and force it, play ranked get off and play the next day and expect better results that’s asking to be hardstuck

[dawn gale]

yeah fs, warm up and solo practice goes a long way. watching and learning from pros too

[kind rapids]

Even trying to be the gamesense over mechanics player is a mistake in the long term in my eyes

[dawn gale]

yeah cause at a certain point theres a mech requirement to keep up. especially in consistency and fundementals. and having mechs opens up another layer of gamesense

[kind rapids]

Yeah

I mean mechs have a lot more carry potential than gamesense even though they both require each other to an extent

The plats and diamonds who can flip reset and are still stuck don’t have bad game sense necessarily

They just can’t actually flip reset

And then they also can’t put on an air roll shot lolol

[cedar chasm]

That's the dumbest statement I've heard, mechanics NEED gamesense to be effective while gamesense does not need mechanics to be effective making gamesense objectively better than mechanics in most cases. If you do a reset without even taking into consideration where the opponents are or when they'll challenge wont get you above champ, while dojng mechanics you need to be able to quickly observe the opponents' positions and do the mechanics accordingly.

[kind rapids]

I quite literally said that

[kind rapids]

.

[cedar chasm]

You said mechs have a lot more potential LOL

[kind rapids]

Yes I would rather have better mechs than gamesense than better gamesense and worse mechs

In neither situation am I bad at the other

[cedar chasm]

That is where you are wrong

Having better gamesense will get you much further than having better mechs

Look at freestylers for example, they are literally all champ and MAYBE GC

[daring perch]

that is true

half the time, I miss saves because I backflip when I should slow down

[kind rapids]

A freestyler in champ has bad gamesense not slightly worse

[woeful maple]

Bro my rank is silver 3 but im plat level or higher i think in 2s my tm8s just take the ball from me when im on a dribble or they booststarving me and there scoring owngoals how do i rank up bro what like

[cedar chasm]

Players without using any advanced mechanics have made it to SSL, while freestylers who only use mechs haven't made it there proving that gamesense is better

[daring perch]

tru

[kind rapids]

I’m talking about the lower ranked, and advanced mechanics yes but they would need very good fundamentals to reach ssl with purely game sense

But up until champ you don’t even see opponents going on the backboard so any type of mechanic that goes top shelf just goes in every time

[cedar chasm]

Fundamentals are not considered mechanics, shot accuracy and aerial accuracy aren't what rocket league players call "mechanics"

[kind rapids]

Yes it is, if you do a shooting pack are you not training your mechs?

Your not exactly working on game sense are you

[cedar chasm]

I don't care what happens up until champ, what is important is what happens AFTER champ

[cedar chasm]

Fundamentals and mechs are different

It's like saying shooting on an FPS game is a mechanic

[daring perch]

find a good player (eg. a friend at gold). if you can voicechat, that's even better, because you can communicate more, like: Go take boost, I'll take the ball or, on your left. you can do that without opponents knowing your next move.

[kind rapids]

It absolutely is

In the same way that movement would be

[woeful maple]

Yeah well i cant find

[daring perch]

I am silver 2, but I found playing with my worse brother is slightly better than bad tm8s

[cedar chasm]

It literally isn't

[cedar chasm]

Ask ANYONE what they consider mechanics, nobody is gonna mention fundamentals

[daring perch]

that is so true. don't ypu dare say pressing drive is a mechnic

[kind rapids]

Fundamental mechanics

[zenith torrent]

Any action in-game is a mechanic, whether it be a flip reset or simply accelerating your car. A mechanic doesn’t have to be flashy.

[young wagon]

Anyone c3 or higher mind watching me play and giving me tips?

[kind rapids]

If you have 100% perfect recoveries you have good mechs

[cedar chasm]

Absolutely wrong

[gritty sonnet]

It is technically a mechanic

[daring perch]

a fundamental is something simple, like basics. mechanics are combining those basics to make somthing better

[kind rapids]

There’s a reason you say advanced mechanics

If its advanced there needs to be a stage before

[daring perch]

@gritty sonnet @kind rapids @zenith torrent ,read this

[gritty sonnet]

Not what most say are but it is a mechanic

[gritty sonnet]

You pressing your kb is a mechanic

[kind rapids]

A fundamental… mechanic

[cedar chasm]

Mechanic in most games is considered something that is techy, not simple. To put it like that, a mechanic is a specific set of actions that results in a specific thing, shooting or driving doesn't require specific button presses thus it isn't a mechanic

[daring perch]

an advanced mechanic is an advanced version of a mechanic, that is a combination of fundamentals

[kind rapids]

Would you call air roll a mechanic?

[cedar chasm]

Air roll by itself? No

[gritty sonnet]

It is technically a mechanic, whatever you make the word mechanic doesn't exclude the actual meaning

[cedar chasm]

Jumping and pressing air roll is not a mechanic

[zenith torrent]

Google “define game mechanic”

A game mechanic is a rule or system that defines what players can do in a game and the outcomes of those actions. Mechanics govern how players interact with the game's environment and elements, modifying the "game state" (e.g., a player's health, position, or inventory). Examples include the L-shaped move of a knight in chess or crafting in Minecraft. 

[kind rapids]

^

[cedar chasm]

Ask Google how to air dribble and ull see how wrong google is😂😂

[gritty sonnet]

It is

[cedar chasm]

Wait I might have screens

[kind rapids]

Google “how do I air dribble in rocket league”

How do you do it

[cedar chasm]

Not here

Normal google and see Gemini's response lol

[gritty sonnet]

You can make a word more complex what it is but in definition its still the exact same thing

Layers doesn't change the core definition

[zenith torrent]

Until you reference otherwise how driving isn’t a game mechanic, this discussion isn’t worth continuing.

You seen my reference for what a game mechanic is, why should Rocket League be excluded from this?

[cedar chasm]

In gaming for years it's been the same, a mechanic is something techy and not a simple action

[kind rapids]

No it’s not

[gritty sonnet]

It really does not matter

[cedar chasm]

Because every game is excluded for this

[zenith torrent]

Reference please.

[kind rapids]

The definition is right there

[cedar chasm]

Literally search for mechanics in any game, go to YouTube and search any game's mechanics and you'll not see anyone saying "driving is a mechanic" or "shooting is a mechanic"

[gritty sonnet]

Dude, just becomes it has come to this doesn't mean its something else

Fundamental mechanics

[cedar chasm]

That Cosmo guy CLEARLY knew what mechanics mean in gaming rn, he is just trying to go by definition because he is tryna prove himself right

[kind rapids]

Look at gameplay highlights

[cedar chasm]

Now in Cosmo's message he didn't say the word "fundamental" did he?

[gritty sonnet]

I take fundamentals as mechanics too whats the problem?

[cedar chasm]

Don't see fundamental anywhere here

[kind rapids]

Exactly that’s the mechanics of the game

Walking

Is a mech

Don’t need fundamental

[zenith torrent]

So if I upload a YouTube video right now stating accelerating is a game mechanic, that’s sufficient enough to counter your point here.

[cedar chasm]

Ok so if I can drive I'm a GOD at mechanics then

[kind rapids]

No but you do have the ability to perform a mechanic

Because you are performing a mechanic

[gritty sonnet]

I mean if you say driving as a mechanic then game sense is nothing without mechancs

[cedar chasm]

By your definition, driving is a mechanic so if I can drive I have good mechs

[zenith torrent]

Who said “good”?

[gritty sonnet]

He

[cedar chasm]

Cosmo

[cedar chasm]

"good mechs"

[kind rapids]

I mean if you have perfect ground car control then yes that’s a mechanic that your good at

[zenith torrent]

Oh I didn’t see that, while I agree driving is a game mechanic, I disagree that it makes you “good” at mechanics.

[kind rapids]

If you can drive, you can dribble

[cedar chasm]

I can prove you wrong right now, what's ur rank?

[cedar chasm]

Extremely wrong

[kind rapids]

I didn’t say I had good mechanics or gamesense lol

I could pull a clip of apparentlyjack saying mechanics are more important then you can go 1v1 him

[cedar chasm]

"if you can aerial you can psycho pinch musty double"

[cedar chasm]

Zen hasn't said anything like this and he can easily beat apparently jack so that's a stupid statement

[kind rapids]

If your aerials are good enough then yes

[cedar chasm]

Apparently jack has tens of thousands of hours so saying "1v1 him" is not a valid argument here

[kind rapids]

If you have perfect aerial control then any mechanic that’s possible in the air you can do

[cedar chasm]

There's a difference between an aerial and an air mechanic, even if someone is perfect at aerials he won't be able to perform a specific mechanic first try

[cedar chasm]

You can do but it takes hours to learn

[kind rapids]

How about this, if you want to improve at the game you should put more hours into mechanics than gamesense

[gritty sonnet]

I mean does most people want to become better than pros?

[cyan sage]

no

[cedar chasm]

No? But does that mean that everything a pro says is valid? Hell no. They are pros because they have talent, doesn't mean they are know-it-alls

[modest dirge]

Guys I need a good player to talk to anyone here like really good at rl dw I don't need a free carry just wondering

[gritty sonnet]

Just specify and your golden

[gritty sonnet]

Right back at you

[kind rapids]

Not triple flip resets exclusively, you need to have good recoveries, ground and aerial car control, but also the ability to do something like a flip reset will also help

You can be taught gamesense, you need to grind out mechanics if you want to improve put more time into mechanics to save yourself hassle in the future

[cedar chasm]

Again, depends

[gritty sonnet]

But tbh this is a bit of person to person

[cedar chasm]

If you go for flip resets at gold that's dumb

[kind rapids]

It’s dumb to be a gold who knows how to flip reset because they’ve skipped 12 steps

[cedar chasm]

The hassle in the future will be LESS though because your aerial and ground control will be better

[kind rapids]

But if you hit a flip reset on net in gold it’s probably gonna go in

Aerial and ground control I consider a mechanic

[cedar chasm]

No it's dumb because it'll take them 300 hours or more to learn since they don't have the required car control whereas if they started practicing resets at GC it would only take them maybe 50 hours?

You shouldn't learn a mechanic unless it's necessary for your rank

[kind rapids]

I said it’s dumb because they’ve skipped steps yes I would never recommend a gold practices flip resets

[cedar chasm]

If you had spent those 300 hours on actual gameplay and gamesense you'd be diamond or champ though

[kind rapids]

Once they want to learn how they’ll need to practice anyway

It’s better to split time, but I’d say the split is more for mechanics

Because gamesense is something that can come from simply watching the game and at least attempting to see what you did wrong in a replay or something

[cedar chasm]

I'll put it like this, mechanics and gamesense is a ratio, you should only learn mechanics when the hours put into that mechanic would be better spent compared to gamesense. (Talking about advanced mechanics just to make clear) If you are gold even if you CAN learn resets, if they take you 300 hours it's a loss because 300 hours on gamesense would be better spent while if you are in GC 50 hours of gamesense would help way less

[cedar chasm]

Practicing mechanics more than you play games is not recommended for anyone

[gritty sonnet]

Its just logic

[elfin lintel]

Looking for a champion 1/2 eu mic

[kind rapids]

In the short term yes but in the long term you’ll thank yourself

[cedar chasm]

Mechanics only become effective past a certain rank, there are recommended mechanics for each rank for maximum efficiency. Bronze and silver are wavedashes and half flips, golds and plats are dribbles, flicks, fast aerials and power shots, diamonds and champs are air dribbles and ceiling shots GCs and SSL are flip resets and other advanced ones

[cedar chasm]

In the short term mechanics are better, gamesense helps long term LOL

[kind rapids]

In the short term you can’t get that far with mechanics

[cedar chasm]

Learning a mechanic as late as possible is the most beneficial thing ever since that mechanic will take you WAY less hours to learn

[kind rapids]

If you practice mechanics today and hope to wake up with a difference your cooked

[cedar chasm]

Same thing goes for gamesense though doesn't it?

1 day of gamesense won't make a difference

[kind rapids]

Of focused practice yeah? If your losing games cause you keep committing in corners then just.. stop doing it you’ve improved in 30 minutes

But you can’t just click with muscle memory and consistency

[gritty sonnet]

You can improve game sense in a very short time

[cedar chasm]

I thought of a way to explain, let me tell you the disadvantage you put yourself into by learning mechanics early, let's say you learn flip resets at plat or diamond, it'll take you maybe 200 hours to learn and let's say you reach the same playtime as a pro of let's say 4000 hours, if the pro had practiced the mechanic while he was pro and not plat, if would only take him 30 hours to learn meaning that of his 4000 hours, only 30 was spent on flip resets and the rest was other stuff while in your case 300 was spent on flip resets and you only spent 3700 on other stuff, so in the end he gained time by delaying learning resets as much as possible, same goes for all mechs

[kind rapids]

It takes the same amount of time, the only difference is that the pro has already put their time into rings maps so half the stuff he needs to practice he already knows doesn’t mean he skipped any steps

He put time into something else to make flip resets take less time

He’s not taking less time because of replay reviews

[gritty sonnet]

Your rank does absolutely nothing towards your mechanics

[cedar chasm]

It doesn't, learning a mechanic does not improve your air control while improving air control does help with learning a mechanic

[cedar chasm]

Your rank says how good your general car control is which directly helps with mechs

[gritty sonnet]

No it doesn't, a rank says the general skill level of players

[kind rapids]

Learning a mechanic is improving your air control, most of the time the reason you need to learn it is because your struggling with the air control required for example the turn so your wheels are facing you in a flip reset is air control and at some point you need to learn it

[gritty sonnet]

You magically getting gc doesn't mean your better at mechanics bc your gc

[cedar chasm]

Which is directly connected to the player's car control, are you dumb?

[kind rapids]

The pro skips that step since he already knows how

[cedar chasm]

It's not

[kind rapids]

Did you even read the message?

[cedar chasm]

Learning a mechanic is memorizing a pattern of inputs, improving car control is UNDERSTANDING that pattern

[gritty sonnet]

Notice how I say general skill level of players, while you say your general car control

[cedar chasm]

Does a pro have better car control than you? Yes, so stop talking

It is literally connected

[kind rapids]

Memorizing a pattern of inputs means you understand it you can’t memorise a pattern you don’t understand otherwise you wouldn’t know what to memorise

[cedar chasm]

You can memorize patterns you don't understand, and a lot of players do that

[gritty sonnet]

Yes though not really a fair comparison

[kind rapids]

They simply don’t try to, if you just go in Freeplay and hit a flip reset and focus on the movements your doing chances are you can put it into words

[cedar chasm]

It's not "fair" because he is higher rank, your claim is that higher ranks don't connect to better car control so it is absolutely a fair comparison

[gritty sonnet]

A general skill level of players doesn't mean individual players have similar general car control

[kind rapids]

Car control is a mechanic that you need to put time into learning iutside of games

Your not gonna get pro level car control from ranked

[cedar chasm]

Car control is many mechanics, not 1

[gritty sonnet]

A general skill level of a pro is much higher than for example a gc

[kind rapids]

Many mechanics that you need to put time into practicing outside of ranked

[cedar chasm]

You are not gonna get it by going into free play and doing resets for 24/7 either

Practicing basics>>>>>>practicing advanced mechs

[kind rapids]

Practice the basics until you can practice the advanced mechs

[gritty sonnet]

The general skills to make it to a rank doesn't mean that everything is balanced, it means that everything together is for example 20 points though you can be terrible at for example dribbles but still have 20 points

[cedar chasm]

So you agree that the rank of a player directly connects to their car control

[gritty sonnet]

No

[gritty sonnet]

It connects to the general skill of a player

[kind rapids]

But you’ll learn the basic air control required to hit a flip reset while practicing it without practicing it seperatwly

[cedar chasm]

Car control are all mechanics combined, if a player is better in the air and someone is completely bad doesnt mean that the person who is bad doesn't have good car control, it means he hasn't practiced that specific thing

[cedar chasm]

You won't be able to understand all movements of air roll by only doing resets though

While if you practice air roll first and then resets you'll be good at both

[kind rapids]

Practicing air roll is still practicing a mechanic

[cedar chasm]

In your literal example of your initial message you mentioned flip resets, not air roll

Stop switching it up, I know what you meant while typing it

[zenith torrent]

You mean to tell me, I have been in Tesco, bought a meal deal, and ate the meal deal sandwich and crisps - and ya’ll are still arguing about this?

[cedar chasm]

Tell that to the claims or rl players

[kind rapids]

I said they can’t actually flip reset meaning they don’t have the car control to hit it over a defender, in net, and without a perfect setup

[gusty sandal]

What's your 1s rank?

[kind rapids]

Why?

[gusty sandal]

Wanna 1v1

[cedar chasm]

Point is even if they could perfectly hit it, it wouldn't be an efficient use of their time

[kind rapids]

It is, practicing the mechanics to get to ssl takes more time than practicing the gamesense to get to ssl

So your better off putting more time in a split into mechanics

[cedar chasm]

True? But you just proved me right LOL

If practicing gamesense gets you to SSL faster it means it's more efficient

[kind rapids]

You need both ssl level gamesense and mechanics

[cedar chasm]

Wrong

People have gotten SSL without good mechs

[kind rapids]

Who?

Flakes in 2018

[cedar chasm]

Unless you mean fundamentals, which flip resets are NOT a part of

[kind rapids]

If you have good enough fundamentals then you can hit a flip reset

[gusty sandal]

What is youe 1s rank?

[zenith torrent]

My knowledge here may be ignorant, but didn’t Woody get to SSL or close to SSL? And his signature move is demolitions.

[cedar chasm]

****with practice

[zenith torrent]

Diamond 3

[gusty sandal]

He ssl in demos

[cedar chasm]

I'm genuinely curious, what's ur rank? And how many hours do you have in rl?

[kind rapids]

C2 2k

[gusty sandal]

I am d1 wanna play 1s?

[zenith torrent]

I know he won an SSL tournament at least from demolitions.

[zenith torrent]

I’m not home.

[gusty sandal]

😭

[cedar chasm]

How can your practice methods be more efficient than mine if I'm c2 with 450 hours and you are c2 with 2k? No offense here

[kind rapids]

A lot of my time is spent in your mindset trying to be a gamesense player and i believe it held me back

Once i started practicing my car control a lot more is when i ranked up

[cedar chasm]

I went FULL into gamesense until C1 and I'm c2 now with 450 hours

[zenith torrent]

I’m a gamesense player, my mechanics are awful besides ground dibbling / flicks - I’m GC1.

[cedar chasm]

Exactly

[kind rapids]

That’s actually pretty impressive tbf but you must have still put time into Freeplay messing around with recoveries and rings maps

[gusty sandal]

I got c2 with 80% game sense and 10% mechanics

[zenith torrent]

What about the other 10%?

[gusty sandal]

Mind

[zenith torrent]

Wouldn’t mind come under gamesense?

[gusty sandal]

Not rage quiting basically

[gusty sandal]

I wouldn't say so

[zenith torrent]

Ah, mentality.

[kind rapids]

Ok who wanna 1v1 then

[cedar chasm]

Yes, but way less than 50%

[gusty sandal]

Yes

[daring perch]

finally, someone gets me

[gusty sandal]

What's your 1s rank?

[cedar chasm]

I probably put 150 in total in shooting practice and rings as well as Freeplay

[kind rapids]

High d1-low d2

[gusty sandal]

Wanna 1v1?

[zenith torrent]

1v1 Nexto if you looking for a challenge.

[kind rapids]

Yeah sure in a sec

[kind rapids]

And are you still focusing on gamesense?

[gusty sandal]

Just warm up for 1s session

[kind rapids]

I think spookluke cooked everyone with his advice lolol

[daring perch]

fine. we focus on "Fundmental mechanics" and gamesense

[cedar chasm]

Mostly yeah

[daring perch]

also, very true. I like him a lot

[kind rapids]

I hate his guts

[zenith torrent]

👀

Very strong words there.

[kind rapids]

His coaching is like 1.5k

The program

Absolute scammer

[gusty sandal]

Know a person who does coaching for free

[cedar chasm]

Also, I agree that you should be practicing fundamentals, that was my whole argument and that's what those 150 hours I've put into training gone into, what I completely disagree on is that mechanics like flip resets are needed, because they aren't

[zenith torrent]

What do you get in this $1,500 program?

[gusty sandal]

Rl

I would rather spend that money on real life

[cedar chasm]

Spookluke gives bad advice most of the time

[zenith torrent]

I’m considering coming back to the scene.

[kind rapids]

Okok I simply believe you should be putting more time into the right mechanics that you need than practicing gamesense

[gusty sandal]

He is a pro level player

[kind rapids]

I’m not saying you shouldn’t do gamesense at all i would just say put more into your mechs/car control

[zenith torrent]

So is he giving you value for that $1,500 or is he charging that because of his name?

How many hours in said program?

[gusty sandal]

And a high level coach

[kind rapids]

Ask him lolol

[cedar chasm]

I mean maybe, I think that still depends on rank, the higher rank you are the more time you should be focusing on mechanics

[elfin lintel]

Talking about spookluke?

[real stirrup]

I would disagree I think gamesense is more important at first you really don’t need mechs

[cedar chasm]

Agreed, especially on the word "at first"

[kind rapids]

I think if a gold started doing rings maps and focused car control practice like a dribble map and recoveries in Freeplay for 50 hours and then did like 10 hours of ranked while focusing on improving their gamesense they would fly through the ranked ladder

[cedar chasm]

Since later on is when mechanics really shine

[kind rapids]

And then keeping that split it would slow down, but still be faster ranking up than 99% of players

[real stirrup]

Depends on what you mean by later on I’m gc 2 and can barely get resets consistently

[kind rapids]

That’s very aggressive sanity matters too though

Aggressive split*

[cedar chasm]

Mechanics/gamesense ratio goes more towards mechanics the higher rank you are

[gusty sandal]

@kind rapids whats your epic?

[real stirrup]

I actually believe it’s the opposite

[kind rapids]

I mean if you watch a gold play you can tell they don’t know how to move their car

[cedar chasm]

Mechanics as in fundamentals

[kind rapids]

You kinda get a gut feeling of what rank someone is just by watching them move their car

[real stirrup]

Yeah obviously you need a good baseline but once you hit that baseline you don’t need to practice mechanics too much

[cedar chasm]

It's been proven based on statistics that as people rank up, they end up spending more time in free play

[kind rapids]

Maybe they figure out what I’m saying 🫣

[cedar chasm]

A pro for example spends about 80% of his time in free play

[gusty sandal]

You wouldn't guess mine, I have seen people call me way higher than I am

[cedar chasm]

While a gold only about 20%

[real stirrup]

I think that is in large part because ques take much longer and the lobbies get much more inconsistent

[kind rapids]

I don’t think golds are doing even that lol

[zenith torrent]

Probably because they have to queue for 30 minutes to find a match 🤣

[kind rapids]

I made a priv name and password are both ryu

[real stirrup]

Yeah I have bad 10 minute queues in gc2 can’t imagine how bad it is at 2k

[kind rapids]

For the guy who wanted to 1v1

[cedar chasm]

That's called overestimating yourself and it's bad

[gusty sandal]

I am not calling myself higher ranked, they are

[kind rapids]

Astral r u eu?

[gusty sandal]

Yes

[kind rapids]

Ok join my priv

[cedar chasm]

Because you are a 1s player

While most people you play against are 2s mains

[gusty sandal]

I am beginning to now but I was a 2s player

I didn't touch 1s until recently

[kind rapids]

Alexy we can 1v1 iyw not a grudge match lol you said your 450hrs and same rank so im curious how you play

[cedar chasm]

Sure

[gusty sandal]

Well can you say the code

[kind rapids]

ok astral r u joining this?

I did earlier name and password both ryu

[gusty sandal]

A bit hard to join otherwise

[kind rapids]

I did earlier fudnut

I’m not warm btw

Alexy you can join iyw

[cedar chasm]

Alr gimme a sec

[barren cobalt]

he i just started playing this game anyone who can teach me some thing?

[cedar chasm]

Play the game until you get to silver/gold

[barren cobalt]

plat2 already

[cedar chasm]

Learn half flips, wave dashes, fast aerials, power shots and basic dribbles

[barren cobalt]

can you maybe show in game?

[cedar chasm]

Just so you know I haven't played in a week lol

[kind rapids]

You and that last guy are supposed to be the same rank

[gusty sandal]

Me?

[kind rapids]

gg

What rank r u astral?

[kind rapids]

What’s ur 1s as well

[cedar chasm]

Used to be a 1s player so c1 but couple years ago, now I'm d1

For the last few years I only play 2s

[kind rapids]

I was preaching mechs and didn’t do a mechy thing the full bo3 lmao

[cedar chasm]

Lol

[kind rapids]

ggs tho and gg astral

[cedar chasm]

Would you be down for a game of horse?

Just wanna see the difference

[kind rapids]

I have to go to college I’m gonna be late lol

[cedar chasm]

Ah alr

[kind rapids]

It starts in 10 mins and I’ve not gotten ready 🫣

[gusty sandal]

I told you

[kind rapids]

C2?

[cedar chasm]

Lol no he is way lower

[kind rapids]

I thought he said that

[cedar chasm]

I think he is plat something in 1s

[kind rapids]

Oh damn mb

[elfin lintel]

C2 eu mic

[gusty sandal]

Which game mode?

[kind rapids]

2s

[gusty sandal]

D3

[kind rapids]

What advanced mechs can you do other than a normal flip reset? Im still learning reset mustys lol you might have me even in that

[kind rapids]

Oh ok

[gusty sandal]

I am d1 in 1s

[cedar chasm]

Ah, we are the same rank then

Right now atleast

[cedar chasm]

Flip reset musty, doubles, air dribbles, ceiling shots and ceiling musty's, sidewall and i can't think of anything else rn

[kind rapids]

I’m d1 in 1s too but you kinda skelped me lol I need to play more 1s I just did my placements then left it

[kind rapids]

Okok you could not have learned that with 250 hours only on mechs surely

You have to be like gifted or something

[cedar chasm]

150 and I have lol

[cedar chasm]

I think it's because I only started learning mechs after I hit C1 so my basics were good

[distant socket]

tf

150 hours

[inner finch]

XD

[kind rapids]

450 in total he said 250 spent on mechs

[cedar chasm]

150 hours on mechs, 450 total

[kind rapids]

150*

[inner finch]

450 for champ is not bad

[distant socket]

so it took him 18 days for champ and 150 hours to be able to basically hit 80% of the mechs that are useful in the game

[kind rapids]

I needa lock in bruh

I suppose so man he’s him

I’m sitting 2k hours in c2

[distant socket]

we might be witnessing the reckoning of christ ngl

[inner finch]

your cooked

[distant socket]

someone get the horn and banners up and running

[kind rapids]

What r u?

[inner finch]

2700h gc3

[kind rapids]

Breh

Ok hold up I’m bouta get gc2 real quick

Catch up a lil

[distant socket]

450 hours for champ is a bit of a stretch no? if solo que i would assume it would take at least 600-800 hours i thought

if he played with a duo i assume its way easier

but on the other hand he can hit the mechs of jesus himself

[inner finch]

gl

[cedar chasm]

I started playing on PC so I had it a bit easier than the average player, I'm also on 240hz

[distant socket]

i see

did you have a duo? like consistently

[kind rapids]

Can you do a map like air dribble gauntlet?

[cedar chasm]

Consistently no, but I was looking for people to play with before going into comp

[distant socket]

ah okay

[cedar chasm]

Never tried

[lusty lily]

aye can some1 help me n my tm8 tiering up?

[kind rapids]

What about tiny rings have you done that?

[cedar chasm]

I can do full field air dribble though

[inner finch]

can you do dribble overhaul?

[kind rapids]

Yeah pretty easily

[cedar chasm]

Haven't done many WS maps except aim training, dribble challenge 2 and speed rings 3

[inner finch]

nice

[kind rapids]

Ok fair

[lusty lily]

gng wht rank r u?

[kind rapids]

C2

[inner finch]

@kind rapids ur 1570 peak?

[kind rapids]

Nah my name is weird

[distant socket]

what do you guys call someone whos really buns at rocket league for their rank, but somehow got there solo que

[kind rapids]

Good enough for the rank

[cedar chasm]

That's impossible but I guess if It were to happen they are lucky and got matched up with bad players

[distant socket]

mmmmm

ig i should clarify what buns means, it means they cant do advanced mechs that other ppl can do at their rank ig

[cedar chasm]

Now it makes sense, then they are gamesense-carried

Which according to me is the best way to play the game

Maybe I'm wrong idk, not really tryna start an argument again lol

[distant socket]

xd it would be funny if a person who didnt have gamesense, or mechs were at a higher rank xd

[distant socket]

nah i agree

mechs you can learn later but gamesense u kinda need to be innately good at it ig

[kind rapids]

[lusty lily]

twin can u help me out a bit? me n my frnd be making mistakes n his ahh so rtxded he ain't willing to listen to any advice i give him n i think he scks at rotations n all (we hardstuck gold TT)

i jst need a guy to watch 1-2 replays n tell wht we doing wrong

[kind rapids]

Most golds it’s just their challenge game, jump 50s fake challs etc don’t exist

[distant socket]

tell ur friend he need to put the fries in the BAG and listen to advice to get better

[kind rapids]

And just tell him to not be up your ass

[distant socket]

cus this game aint gon treat u well if ur too stuck up to listen to advice

[barren cobalt]

anyone who can teach me some things in game

[lusty lily]

this wt i'm telling his ahh but he jst won't listen to my yap

it's good if it comes frm sm1 else

this why i need sm1 to tell him wt he doing wrong

[distant socket]

well can he shoot the ball on target

[lusty lily]

half of the times no

[distant socket]

oh dear god

[lusty lily]

TT

[distant socket]

no need for feedback, go into freeplay and practice putting the ball in the goal for 10 min first

[lusty lily]

oh no he ain't even THAT bad yo 😭

[distant socket]

oh damn

[lusty lily]

could u help us out?

🥀

[distant socket]

uhhhh

im not very good at giving feedback lolz i suck as well tbh

also i cant really join vc rn cus its always saying smth about DLS connecting or sum

[lusty lily]

ye that scks

[distant socket]

mainly js focus on putting shots on target, and positioning yourself so that ur lined up to take a shot at net when ur teamamte passes to you

[lusty lily]

i do

[gusty sandal]

There's not really much rotation in gold

[distant socket]

its prep for plat ig

plat u kinda need it sort of not really

[gusty sandal]

I wouldn't say plat can either rotate

[distant socket]

maybe

[kind rapids]

Depends on the play

Plat

[gusty sandal]

Plats

You need both people to know it

[kind rapids]

Yeah

[lusty lily]

wouldn't jst watching the play be better to grasp the situation

[kind rapids]

In lower ranks all you need to do is let your tm8 ball chase and be there for saved and shots when needed

saves*

[gusty sandal]

Just do the same in champ

[kind rapids]

It works everywhere tbh

Until like gc

Prob I wouldn’t know

[lusty lily]

alr will do

[dusk breach]

i can help out im gc2

[lusty lily]

ayeee

thnksss man

i'll add u up jst a sec

[lavish mason]

U cant force someone to improve he isnt willing to

[lusty lily]

: (

[kind rapids]

Get new friends

[lime notch]

can someone help me get better for i can carry my bad temmates

im plat 2

[dusk breach]

Im GC2, can anybody tell me if im doing my Jakze resets right or wrong, im not quite sure..

[lime notch]

can someone help me get better for i can carry my bad temmates

[cyan socket]

Hey guys im diamond 1 in 1s and diamond 3 in 2s but Only gold in 3s😩any diamond 2+ thats not to High in 3v3 tryna q?

[lime notch]

im plat 2 in 2s and im gold 2 in twos can i play

@cyan socket can i join?

[whole mortar]

anyone who plays kbm, if you are airdribbling, do you use strictly S and D for airroll left (or opposite)?

or just using airroll in general for aerial control ^

[gusty sandal]

What is your s and d keys binded to?

[barren cobalt]

anyone wanna 1v1? i just started so idk you prob win but normal game mode is to ez

[gusty sandal]

Do you mean just started the game for first time?

[barren cobalt]

like 2 days in now lol but pretty decent for 2 days

[gusty sandal]

What is your rank? And what do you main?

[honest bobcat]

@kind rapids thx I needed smth like that lol

[barren cobalt]

wdym what do i main? i am plat 2 atm after the 10 matches in 2s

[gusty sandal]

I mean what do you play the most

[gusty sandal]

Do you think you deserve play 2?

[barren cobalt]

2s

[kind rapids]

Plat 2 after first placements is very good

[barren cobalt]

i mean ig can do a few things idk haha

[kind rapids]

I remember climbing through gold lol

[gusty sandal]

I would just say play more until your feeling it not to ez

[honest bobcat]

Im hardstuck goal 9/10 out of 10 times but after first placement in 3s I'm plat 1

Gold*

[barren cobalt]

alrr

[barren cobalt]

tyy

[honest bobcat]

Yall wish me luck I'ma try to get a good first placement in 2s on my alt

Looking for a Diamond+ to play 3s with I already have 1 player we Are both diamond 3 in 2s join if ur not higher than diamond in 3s but is higher than diamond in 2s Or 1s

[kind rapids]

I mean surely it’d be the same? Just w and d flip and hold s or s and a?

[polar veldt]

so what do i do now

[kind rapids]

And that’d be a flip cancel no

[polar veldt]

so i hold w d flip and hold s right

[kind rapids]

Yeah

[polar veldt]

and thats how u go for a double

[kind rapids]

Yeah that’s the flip you do into the ball

[polar veldt]

xd

[kind rapids]

You have to get the first one obvs lol

Tbh just watch squishes tutorial and replicate on kbm

[polar veldt]

i cant get a double im horrid gddamn

[kind rapids]

If you can figure out the cancel that’s all that really matters

Or any double tutorial works rlly

Might even be one for kbm

[polar veldt]

I CANNOT im trying to

[kind rapids]

Try holding s and a maybe? I’m not sure if the flip cancel is slightly diagonal

That would be some Friday night funkin wasd movements tho

I give up switch to roller

[gusty sandal]

Ask pokepel

[gusty sandal]

If its default controls then its w, s, a/d

Or replace a/d to q/e

[royal rock]

Cap

My average solo queue tm8 would solve world hunger before scoring a goal

[cursive geode]

Yeah fr its either they are alot more skillful on pc or maybe there's just more smurfs

[cyan sage]

Any1 wanna coach me - im plat 3 rn but i js cant seem to get out of it

[royal rock]

I would but im only D2

[lavish mason]

Skill and mental issue git gud

[lavish mason]

They cant accept the fact they cant adapt and have to rely on tm8 to be good to rank up if they do that for long time they cant adapt to diffrent playstyle and think its their tm8 fault

[forest grove]

@mellow crow iam sorry I finished

[soft carbon]

lf 1v1 chill im d2

[lavish dirge]

[elfin drift]

Can some one teach me how to be good on ps5 controller for free?

[flat trench]

[royal rock]

What rank are you

[flat trench]

P3 but should be like d1 or d2

[south oriole]

i mean im d1 rn and we could like be partners to c1

[cold crescent]

respectfully if you are plat 3 you definitely shouldnt be d2, you would be able to get yourself to d1 without relying on teammates, and at plat 3 its just best to do the push into diamond yourself and not get someone to bring you to d3 and most definitely not champ

[royal rock]

Hold up

[south oriole]

[cyan sage]

is plat 3 around the time to start learning flip resets etc?

[broken portal]

i started at plat 2

[heady ingot]

i started at champ 2 and i still didnt need it

[cyan sage]

rlly??

i see alot of plats using it

[heady ingot]

yeah well, air dribble dunks are wayyy easier and because of the consistency wayyy more OP

when i was c3 i never did ceiling shots in ranked

[heady ingot]

a clean air dribble (maybe air dribble bump) is gonna be better than a wacky flip reset

[bitter dune]

is there a way to not have to add as friend to message a person from LFG chat

[heady ingot]

good flip resets can really help, but thats high level stuff

[heady ingot]

you can click on the blue name to see their profile

[inner tartan]

Bro how do I learn directional air roll like I have no idea what each joystick side means

[heady ingot]

i use cntrl + f and type in the gamemode i want, then jump to the message i want to respond to, click on their profile and dm them

[inner tartan]

Does anyone know any good tutorials other than that sppokyluke guy

[heady ingot]

wayton pilkin on youtube

[inner tartan]

Thank you bro

[bitter dune]

still makes me add them as friend first so weird haha

[heady ingot]

you might have enabled that only friends can dm you

so for YOUR settings, you need to add them first

[bitter dune]

ty for info
