[grim compass]

Can you record a game on Xbox and upload to yt

[worn magnet]

Is it worth tryna find an actual tm8 cause rn im solo queueing

[grim compass]

I’d just solo Q but an actual t8 can be more fun

[worn magnet]

I been c2 most of my life but like 2 months ago I changed my settings cause my padel controlller broke and I’ve progressed like crazy since

I can’t upload anything rn I’m in bed

I just didn’t know if there was like anything majorly important that I really need to have

Tbf I’m like a couple games of gc2. I haven’t lost a game since getting into gc

[solid scroll]

did i tell you i play 2s like a caveman

[mighty terrace]

add jozopo if you want to play 4v4 ranked, eu or na east only

[solid scroll]

happened to me, are you like 1500 rn

[worn magnet]

Yh

Gc1 been way easier than c3 d4

[solid scroll]

yeah you're very far away from gc2 gang im sorry

[worn magnet]

Im a game off gc1 d4

[solid scroll]

1500-1600 is prob the most inconsistent rank in the whole game

[worn magnet]

I don’t think it’s that far off

[solid scroll]

i got gc1 d4 and i can tell you its hell

[worn magnet]

Yh but good or bad tm8 im still winning games

[solid scroll]

its not even good or bad

[worn magnet]

Carried a tm8 earlier who had less than 200 and I had 1k

[solid scroll]

its just awkward matches

[worn magnet]

I feel like half the people in the rank are like c1/2 that just got a bit mechy so they ranked up

[solid scroll]

in low gc1 yeah

but not mechy, just a bit smarter

[worn magnet]

They don’t have game sense, a lot of the time I have to play very passive and defensive cause they won’t stop chasing

[solid scroll]

champs aint even bad at mechs sometimes, they are just so dumb

[worn magnet]

Yh ik

What rank r you floxs

[solid scroll]

in low gc1 its like people either play scared or chase a lot

[solid scroll]

gc1 div 4

[hollow latch]

Im gold 3 in 2s looking for a coach

[worn magnet]

A coach ain’t gonna help you in gold 3 bro

You need to just play the game more

Literally just got on YouTube and look at how to Ariel

Stuff like that

[hollow latch]

thx

[modest finch]

Looking for somebody who can help maybe coach me so I can get into diamond. Currently P3 Div 1 have hit Div 4 multiple times just cant seem to get to diamond

[raw raven]

Am gold1

[solid scroll]

guys you dont really need coaches on lower ranks 😭

[modest finch]

I just cant hit diamond😭

been hardstuck plat 3 for like 2 weeks now

[solid scroll]

you'll hit it eventually bro

[solid scroll]

bro thats like such a low time what u on abt

"hardstuck"

[modest finch]

Why so toxic lol

[zinc fractal]

yeah you got that, took my buddie a year to get out of plat

[solid scroll]

im not being toxic, im just telling you the truth

[zinc fractal]

he sucks but, yeah you got it

[modest finch]

A year is crazy

[solid scroll]

when u keep getting higher, the more time it will take

[zinc fractal]

yeah he's lowkey buns

[quartz escarp]

Any one got tips to get out of gold?

[modest finch]

?

[sonic cape]

Rise and grind. And probably just practice a air dribble or something like that.

[quartz escarp]

Ok thx

Should I focus more on car control and air roll

[solid scroll]

higher rank = the harder it becomes and the longer it takes

[grim compass]

Such good advice

[lapis rapids]

ayeeee you know it 🙌

[grim compass]

😎

[sonic cape]

It is bro

[grim compass]

I learned the air dribble in silver tho personally

[sonic cape]

Most gold dont know how to.

[grim compass]

That’s why they should be focusing all their time on it

[sonic cape]

Yeah I focused a lot on my ground pinches and I got mine at gold rank

[solid scroll]

i think up until like plat 3 is just about putting time into the game

[peak kelp]

any good videos on directional air roll? mid 2k hour c2 looking to switch

[whole moat]

no you didnt

[grim compass]

You right

[solid scroll]

i taught myself a lot through practice and error

[grim compass]

Forgot you know me better than I do 😫🥲

[solid scroll]

most of the tutorials i watched were only for idk fs mechs

[sonic cape]

Same

[grim compass]

I feel like it’s easier to just figure it out yourself the videos are kinda confusing

[whole moat]

attempting to learn an airdribble and saying you learned to airdribble 2 different things

[solid scroll]

theres no shortcut for directional airroll, you just gotta get used to it

[grim compass]

I learned to air dribble

[peak kelp]

i feel like im gold 3 again

[solid scroll]

my first airdribble was in 2016

[astral tusk]

I didn't even know that, I haven't played in 2 years :/

[gleaming zealot]

Ye

[timber orbit]

oof

[low bison]

When playing 3s, can someone help me? I was wondering as 3rd man when i should play more further back and when i should be up closer to the play. I always get caught off guard as a close 3rd or im not close enough to the play to do anything

[tiny nebula]

I’m plat and I need game sense

I’ve got a flip reset

And a redirect

And a flip reset musty

[hardy eagle]

Yo can anyone help me w air dribbling

[tiny nebula]

Nah

Sorry

[low bison]

Watch YT videos

[lyric notch]

what is a good rank for someone with 270 hours that took a break for 2 years and just started playing again a week ago

[low bison]

Diamond 2 or 3 idk

[tiny nebula]

Ok thx

[lyric notch]

well i play kbm and i can perfect speedflip but im plat 2 rn

[low bison]

Gotcha

[lyric notch]

is that still decent

[low bison]

Yes

[lyric notch]

i just waznna check on my progression ive been doing training packs and workshop rings map to get my control better cause my weakness is aerials

[timber orbit]

yarrr

[quaint sedge]

There is no such thing as sperfect speedflip on kbm 🙂

[low bison]

Just work on consistency, touches, shots, and game sense

[lyric notch]

i go for plays that i cant mechanically do

[lyric notch]

well i can hit mustys speedflip

which is 1.98833s

[quaint sedge]

ok thats good!

[lyric notch]

i thought that was a perfect

[low bison]

No

There's level to it, but by small fractions that can make a difference

[quaint sedge]

musty speedflip is a great goal to have, however it can be faster than that! 🙂

[low bison]

Yo what rank are you, do you think you can help me?

[formal pewter]

Nerdddddd

[outer gulch]

Got friends?

[lyric notch]

u got any tips on how i can getbetter at my aerial hits

im really inconsistent ive tried backboard therapy and i usually miss most of the time (first few tries) idk if its because i use directional air roll to adjust too much or what

or if my fast aerial is bad or smth

[abstract notch]

What is backboard therapy

[worn magnet]

Don’t worry about fast aerial at first

Your over complicating it

[lyric notch]

its a really good training pack for practicing aerials with and without directional air roll D7F8-FD53-98D1-DAFE

[worn magnet]

You need to start with basics and build on it

[abstract notch]

Oh

[woven dew]

Who wants a team

Gc or ssl or champ

[lyric notch]

but shouldnt i practice it more since im like high plat/low diamond

[abstract notch]

No focus ground mechs and basic saves

[woven dew]

Dm me

[worn magnet]

Directional air roll is good, something that is super important is air control. Get used to being able to fly in the air in the direction you want to without the ball first, I highly recommend using backers mod if your on of for the maps to learn this. If not set yourself challenges in normal training of keeping your car controlled in the air

[abstract notch]

Also shot accuracy is a BIG thing to learn at first

[stable forge]

Guys im on controller are these good settings Jump(X) boost(square) powerslide(R1) air roll left(L1) air roll right(R1)

[worn magnet]

Settings aren’t good or bad, it depends what works for you. In my opinion those settings aren’t great but that’s because I wouldn’t know how to play them

[stable forge]

Oh ok

[lyric notch]

alr ur rlly underestimating higher plats. most of them are washed players that used to be champ etc but most of the ones i go against INCLUDING myself can speedflip, air dribble (at least some hits), hit decent saves and sometimes double taps its not like net camping and getting basic saves will work and plus plats challenge ground stuff fast which is why aerial is an advantage

[mild helm]

is there anyone that is genuinely willing to coach me for free once in a while, im 13, gc1 peak gc2 and rly wanna get good

[lyric notch]

yea thats true ive been doing aim training workshops

[worn magnet]

If you want I can give you my settings as I high gc1 rn

[abstract notch]

I play in plat all the time with friends your over thinking it

Basic flicks with car control and simple saves will get you out of plat

[lyric notch]

my dribbling and aerial control suck tho ngl

maybe im too hesitant

[abstract notch]

Play off your team8 and mostly do flicks plats hard focus air mechs that’s a why they stay hard stuck

[lyric notch]

bro i was looking for teamates and they dontknow how to play

the random ones i get are better bru

[abstract notch]

Then play off them

[lyric notch]

thats hard to do

[abstract notch]

That’s probably why your struggling in your rank then

[lyric notch]

i usually gotta play 2nd man and play off them

[worn magnet]

Yh most likely you will have to do that 80-90% of the times with randoms. I’m about to hit gc2 and I still get the odd game where I have to do that

[abstract notch]

Exactly 80% of my c3 team8s are solid but 20% I gotta learn to adjust to them to compete better

[worn magnet]

Yh that will happen but that is what makes you a good player. I’m so convinced that if you know when to 50 and don’t dive in and play off all these ball chasing tm8s you can easily hit high chant

Champ*

What div are you in c3 rn?

[abstract notch]

Yeah I’ve been gc1 5 times this season I just struggle in gc1

I’m 1390 rn

[worn magnet]

Damn, from my experience I’ve found gc1 really easy

Easier than champ tbf

I hit gc like 3 days ago and im about to hit gc2

[abstract notch]

Dang nice

[worn magnet]

I am like 1520 I think

[compact locust]

does anyinw know if tictok drops are coming bakc soon

[abstract notch]

Ain’t that like div 2

[worn magnet]

No

[compact locust]

does anyinw know if tictok drops are coming bakc soon

[delicate sleet]

should i change my air roll left to bumper or leave it as X

[worn magnet]

Wait maybe, I’ve won 2 games on div3

Definitely change your air roll to a bumper

[abstract notch]

I’m pretty sure gc2 is like mid high 1600 elo

[worn magnet]

You won’t like it at first but it is infinitely better

[delicate sleet]

air control already feels better but i cannot speed flip no more lmao

[worn magnet]

I changed my settings 2 months ago at c2 with both my directional air rolls to bumpers and I’m about to push to gc2 now because of it

Yh speed flipping will just need practise in training

You will need to relearn but it is worth it long term

[compact locust]

do u know if tictok drops are coming bakc soon

[worn magnet]

I have no clue icl

[worn magnet]

Ah okay, idk my mmr but ik I won 2 games in div 3 gc1 so

I shouldn’t be too far off

[delicate sleet]

im putting air roll left on left bumper is that okay?

[worn magnet]

Yh that’s okay, me personally I have air roll right on left bumper and air roll left on right bumper. I don’t think that is normal but my reasoning is, I used to only use air roll right and I wanted to only use my left bumper

Either or is fine, whatever you feel more comfortable with

[delicate sleet]

ty for the help

[worn magnet]

No worries, best thing to do is watch a YouTube vid or tiktok vid on how to speed flip. The air roll is the easy part, if you get the first bit correct you shouldn’t have to air roll much

[lyric notch]

my brother has like 0 mechanics he doesnt watch vids or tts about rl yet hes about to hit champ 1, for the past like 2 years hes played like every once in a while and doesnt even play free play. its just a lil frustrating because 2 years ago i was diamond 1 and he was like bronze 2 and i didnt play for 2 years and he already got way past me despite not knowing what air roll even is

[worn magnet]

Yh annoying but like I said, you can easily hit champ with good game sense. All it is is knowing when to 50 and where to rotate to (how to play with a tm8 basically) simple things like not double committing

[icy nimbus]

game sense better than mechs

[foggy agate]

Does anyone know any good servers to find people to play with? Currently gc1-2 but perm soloqing

[icy nimbus]

def me bro

[golden mural]

honestly? play 6 mans learn 3s and find good players that are smart and easy to play with youll know whos on at similar times itll make you a better commer and player and youll find players of the same skill level looking for the same things maybe even find a team looking for a 3rd or a sub/rotating player for scrims

[lapis rapids]

i do, dm me

[worn magnet]

I’m gc1 d3 if you dm me we can play tomorrow assuming ur in European servers?

[dense fjord]

i just started playing again after like like 8 or 9 years and just finished my placement games in 2's and it put me in D3. is SBMM just messed up these days or what? gameplay doesn't feel that high lol

[worn magnet]

Nah your just not gonna get higher than diamond to champ off just placement matches

And with all due respect, d3 gameplay never was high

[distant sparrow]

how do i keep momentum without bouncing off the ball when flip resetting any1 know?

[worn magnet]

It’s partly to do with what part of the ball your getting the reset off

[distant sparrow]

wait what?

i mean obv the bottom side

[worn magnet]

It’s very hard to explain over a message, you are best off looking at how pros do it and you will see what I mean

[foggy agate]

Can’t find a team when I’m gc2

[distant sparrow]

well my flip fesets are way tpo basic thats line telling someone practicing a 2 touch air dribble to look at how zen does a cross map pre flip air dribble

[worn magnet]

Wha rank are you

[distant sparrow]

gold 2 in 1s plat 1 in 2s

[worn magnet]

Bro why are you bothering with resets then

[distant sparrow]

i beat champs btw

[worn magnet]

Your practising the wrong things

[distant sparrow]

i js dont play ranked a lot

[worn magnet]

You clearly don’t beat champs cause your gold

[foggy agate]

You’re not approaching the ball right

[distant sparrow]

i lit did? 5-4 against my champ 1 friend he was trying btw 😂

[worn magnet]

I’m not tryna be peak yh, if you want to actually progress you need to gets this idea out your head that your better than the rank you are cause your not. You are in gold so you shouldn’t be learning advanced mechs

[distant sparrow]

well i am tho

[random sonnet]

any1 down to rank down (1660 2s 1550 3s)

[orchid mauve]

Im sure you did

You def dont deserve champ

[distant sparrow]

i can promise u i dont care if u believe me cus me and him both saw it happen 🙏

[worn magnet]

Idc if you beat your champ mate, you’re gold for a reason. Stop telling yourself these lies cause if you deserved to be champ you would be champ

[foggy agate]

Not true if he solo qs it’s p hard

[distant sparrow]

me beating a champ friend ≠ me saying i deserve champ
ragebait or ed

[dense fjord]

never said i was diamond player. it just put me there and now i'm beating everyone. does sbmm kick in at a certain rank to give me players? didn't want to have to grind this much to get put into competitive lobbies.

[worn magnet]

You come in here for advice yh, I’m gc2 I know what I’m talking about. If you are gold then you should not be learning resets. Simple as

[foggy agate]

What’s ur rl tracker

[distant sparrow]

ya well let ppl play the game how they want, holy WEIRD?

@worn magnet mf is gatekeeping mechs im crine 😂😂

[floral plover]

Anyone wanna coach me I’m gold 2 but play like a diamond

[worn magnet]

My rl tracker is Jedi Jude I’m currently gc1 d3 if your that desperate to check lol

[odd canopy]

Name: Blu
Rank: C3 Div 4
Main Mode: 2v2
Platform: Epic / Steam
Playtime: ~2+ hours daily
Total Hours: ~10,000

I’ve been stuck around high C3 for a while and feel like I’ve reached the limit of improving on my own. After 10k hours, I know the issue likely isn’t mechanics alone — I suspect it’s decision-making, positioning, consistency, or habits I’m not recognizing during my own gameplay.

My goal is to consistently reach GC and eventually push toward SSL, but right now I feel directionless when it comes to improvement. I’m looking for someone who can help honestly identify what’s actually holding me back and point me toward the highest-impact things I should be working on.

I’m very coachable, open to blunt feedback, and willing to follow structured practice or replay review recommendations. I can provide replays, clips, or live gameplay if needed.

If any GC/SSL players or coaches are willing to take a look or offer guidance, I’d really appreciate the help. DM ME!

[distant sparrow]

10k hours what was bro doing 💔

[velvet temple]

First to dm me and doesn't mind waiting 6 hours i coach its free best i can coach is gc2

[worn magnet]

Your gold you can’t be charging

[worn magnet]

Plat to gold in one conversation 💔

Gold to plat*

[foggy agate]

He said he’s gold in 1s

[distant sparrow]

no one uses 1s rank are u special? @worn magnet

then ur probs diamond lmao

[worn magnet]

I don’t play ones so probs diamond yh

[foggy agate]

You js need to play the game rather than learn mechs

[orchid mauve]

Bud either hes lying to you about champ or he lied about trying

[worn magnet]

Fr

[distant sparrow]

well i can see his rl tracker hes clearly champ 😭✌️
and nah he didnt lie lmao

but hes a mechs main so maybe thats why

[orchid mauve]

Thats not how that works lmao

[foggy agate]

Beating ur champ friend doesn’t mean anything, js play the game a rank up

[orchid mauve]

Even if hes a mechs main a real champ wouldve smoked you

[distant sparrow]

ya who r u can i ask

I’ve been stuck around high C3 for a while and feel like I’ve reached the limit of improving on my own. After 10k hours, I know the issue likely isn’t mechanics alone — I suspect it’s decision-making, positioning, consistency, or habits I’m not recognizing during my own gameplay.

My goal is to consistently reach GC and eventually push toward SSL, but right now I feel directionless when it comes to improvement. I’m looking for someone who can help honestly identify what’s actually holding me back and point me toward the highest-impact things I should be working on.

I’m very coachable, open to blunt feedback, and willing to follow structured practice or replay review recommendations. I can provide replays, clips, or live gameplay if needed.

If any GC/SSL players or coaches are willing to take a look or offer guidance, I’d really appreciate the help. DM ME!

[velvet sluice]

if i do the correct maths with every game i get 50 mmr which becomes 50x5 which is 250 plus 710 which is about 960 which gets me to d3

Which meannss ill reach my peak pretty soon if i just win

[bronze edge]

Learn half flips and speed flips

They pretty simple but u can rank up rlly fast just with those

[bronze edge]

𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰 𝘐 𝘥𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 🤔

I’m on Xbox controller

[rough bobcat]

Search on yt so many people make tutorials it’s hard to explain mechanics in a text

Also fix ur cam settings and turn camera shake off

[bronze edge]

Ok thanks I appreciate it

👍

[rough bobcat]

Ofc

[little chasm]

speed flips are kinda useless for me rn, r speeds supposed to help me the most in kickoff?

[rough bobcat]

Speed flips great for kickoff & rotating while conserving boost

[sly root]

can anyonecoach me?

plzzzz dms if u can

[little chasm]

why not wavedash while rotating?

instead

[rough bobcat]

Good point you’re probably better off dashing if you already have momentum because you can turn on the ball easier if needed

I think u hit super sonic speed a little faster with speed flips tho

[mild nest]

anyone wanna 1v1? i’m like plat in 1s and js wanna see my mistakes in order to improve

[rough bobcat]

I mostly learned for kickoffs not gonna lie cause in champ everyone knows them and kickoffs kind of brutal if they’re faster all the time ykwim

[little chasm]

yea i see now, can be situational

[round hill]

can some 1 coach me im using directional air roll

for the first time

please

[fervent isle]

Can someone help me in air dribble or anything bc I'm bad on controller

[languid rover]

Yeah when they are done right go supersonic faster. Some ppl mess up the angle and slow themselves down, boosting at wrong time or not drifting if they need to

[slow galleon]

yo i need a coach

[buoyant mortar]

yo I need help, i just changed my binds but I dont kknow how im supposted to hold my controler now, because i have to click rb and rt at the same time and its so awkward.

[tawny phoenix]

[gusty sandal]

How many words is that?

[icy lantern]

just practice each input at a time. jump, lean your car back with S until you're vertical, and the rest from there is just learning how to keep yourself up

[gusty sandal]

It rapidly goes down

[icy lantern]

if you keep winning you get a steady 30 lol

[lusty galleon]

can you send replays instead?

happy to coach ya if you have replays

[gusty sandal]

Idk, even when I won I got down to 26 and then 20

[icy lantern]

i was like gc2 off placements on one account because i was getting like 40 mmr a game after the combined 600 you get from the first two

its been different every time tho

[gusty sandal]

Maybe they take contribution on those

[spring stream]

if any of u are diamond or low champ dm me if u wanna get better frfr

[icy lantern]

yeah probably

i was dropping like 1000 point average so it would make sense

[final quest]

sorry man thats too complicated for me, and i was lowkey leaning towards live coaching... you did teach me how to airdribble when i was plat though so thanks g ❤️

[gusty sandal]

Is it that you don't know how?

[velvet sluice]

yes but first ones r above 50+

[final quest]

nah, just hidden in the back of my files cuz i use this pc for streaming/photo editing

[lusty galleon]

i mean its just in your Documents folder under My Games/Rocket League/TAGame/Demos or DemosEpic

takes like 5 clicks to get there ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[long slate]

[spring stream]

if any of u are diamond or low champ dm me if u wanna get better frfr

[jade axle]

I'm only a gold, I always get team8s that always take the shots or the never guard the goal, I play heatseeker

I had this guy who yelled at me for hitting the ball. News flash, that's what I'm supposed to do

[desert hare]

thats just golds

[deep ice]

I'm gc2 on main, on a new acc rn to complete driver challenges rq and help people rank, anyone wanna help w the challenges?

[stray coral]

anyone help me get better at air dribbles

[unique cloak]

anyone looking for a esports team? if so dm me.

[worn magnet]

What rank do you have to be to get into an esports team

[velvet sluice]

probably ssl

or atleast peak high ssl

why would an esports team take in anything less than a low ssl

[obtuse crow]

Who's up

[safe kernel]

any tips on how to use directional airol in air?

[fervent isle]

Yo can anyone teach me air dribble or anything I'm a pc player but i want to learn on controller bc i see many ppl are good at controller so i wanted to give it a try

[worn magnet]

What rank are you

[fervent isle]

My rank is gold 3 / plat 1

[worn magnet]

Okay well if your wanting to get a higher rank you don’t need to be worrying about air dribbling yet. I’d focus on being consistent with your shots, as well as just being able to consistently aerial hit

Air dribbling is a diamond mech or higher

Maybe high plat at a push

[glacial hinge]

anyone wanna run casual 2s?

[fervent isle]

I think plat would do air dribble without an air roll

[small ice]

barely

[worn magnet]

Mate it’s up to you what the want to do but you have come in here for advice, I’m gc2 so I do know what I’m talking about. If you really want to learn to air dribble your genuinely best off watching a basic video on YouTube it’s too long to explain over a message

[fervent isle]

K

[fervent isle]

Ty for advicing

[worn magnet]

No worries

[small ice]

honestly learning it takes a long time but you will learn a lot trying to learn it

[fervent isle]

I'm gona go rank up

[fervent isle]

Yea fr

[small ice]

like about aeriels too

and how the games physics work

[fervent isle]

I was gona do a ceiling musty flick

[small ice]

lol

[exotic schooner]

more common than you think

[uncut dragon]

pls someone give me coachinbg im d2

[tired atlas]

yo guys i am a plat 1 - 2 , rn i dont know much of aireal , no aireal mechanics , i even got my first off the wall goal today . so like i saw i video where a dude commented to just use directional airroll as he got used to normal airroll and then had problems getting used to directional airrolls.

so my question was should i just unbind normal airroll and just try to use only directional airroll ?

[spring stream]

if any of u are diamond or low champ dm me if u wanna get better frfr

[primal loom]

free orrrrrr?

[primal loom]

from what i heard slowly use directinal more and more

[radiant kraken]

how do i actaully get better at this game i recently joined back into the game n my highest was p3

[spring stream]

i jus made a good video to learn from i did an entire almost hour long replay review on an average diamond lobby and talked through every major common mistake diamonds make

[primal loom]

honestly you can go far with just learning to let your teammate be stupid and keep a level head, practice defence and making sure your accurate with the ball

[tired atlas]

so i still keep airroll binded?

[primal loom]

yes! keep it binded and eventually youll only use it for minor corrections you cant use directional for

[radiant kraken]

ngl last time ive played was 3 months ago n this is my first time playing again n i am trash bro

[tired atlas]

there are stuff where you cant use directional airroll and need to use normal one , never knew that ;-;

[primal loom]

free play -> hit ball over and over -> hit ball no miss? -> control 😄 -> control = power -> put ball where you want and win games!

[radiant kraken]

k

like i struggle on the ground

[primal loom]

imagine your painting, you have 2 brushes a big one and a small one, directional is your overall big brush, your smaller brush to get small details is free air roll

[tired atlas]

btw like i used to keep airroll on r1 , and directional airroll on r3 should i switch them so directional airroll is more accessable to me

[plucky garnet]

ANYONE WANA 1V1

[tired atlas]

i think normal airroll is better for recoveries right ?

[primal loom]

i have drive r2, reverse l2. boost O, ball cam triangle, drift square, jump x, air roll left Left bumper, free air roll... also l2..

[fervent isle]

That's why i wna learn mechs

[primal loom]

yup! you can fine tune your cars movements to land on your wheels

[radiant kraken]

what should i learn ground dribbles everytime i try to my mind just blanks out

[tired atlas]

alr thanks i keep directional airroll on r3 and l3 cuz i got the buttons below the controllers they kinda hard to press though cuz i use ring finger for them but maybe i will get used to it

[primal loom]

okay your not gonna belive me but try this.. turn off ball cam once your in the circle under the ball

[radiant kraken]

ye thats what i do

[primal loom]

match speed and just control it i suppose

[radiant kraken]

k

[thin drift]

can someone give me any tips, I'm plat 2 but I feel theres just one thing stopping me from being diamond, I feel its aerials but I don't rly know

[gusty sandal]

Depends what you mean, there are teams that doesn't start with any ssl but just started to build chemistry early and that its more important which rank you are in 6mans

Although anyone less that gc1 wouldn't cut it

[gusty sandal]

Not really how it works

For best recommendation then you should never focus on air dribbles bc there won't be a time where learning air driibles is the most important

[gusty sandal]

Tbh if your recommending air dribbles at high plat, you don't know what you are talking about

[gusty sandal]

Don't be low iq

[ocean gale]

not necessarily, i switched from free air roll to both directional and i dont use free airroll anymore

[velvet sluice]

i meann if its a bonus u work on in ur freetime then SUREEE air dribbles r fun and will end up saving u a shesh ton of time when it comes to ranked aswell

but if thats his main focus training then fah no

[thin drift]

Hey guys, Im really in desperate help, I've been stuck in play 2 for a bit and I don't know why, Im not improving at all and I just need someone to help me in general. Please if someone is even considering helping please do, I'm in very desperate need of coaching.

[loud seal]

being in a rank for only a bit is completely natural, and shouldnt expect to skyrocket unless you make a big change

[stray coral]

need help im in d3 and want anyone higher rank to replay review and tell me what im doing wrong

[toxic orchid]

sure, i can help with a replay review

[stray coral]

bet do you wanna call?

[toxic orchid]

sounds good

[tired atlas]

guys i was wondering if i need to bind both directional airrolls or only 1 . i looked at pro controller keybinds rn and i noticed only a few pros use both while most of them use only 1 side directional airroll

[vale tangle]

only one is needed

[tired atlas]

alr thanks

[shy heart]

i use both cause im the goat

[gusty sandal]

How long have you been stuck?

[cerulean nova]

I’m gc1 tryna get gc2 any tips

[midnight zephyr]

why is plat eu like ssl

im js tryna get to daimond bruh

[tacit marlin]

[vale tangle]

in gc1 everyone understands basics so it's really just about your individual impact being higher. whether you use your mechanics as tools rather than blitzing them out, if you have impact off the ball like bumps, etc. and adapting to your teams strengths and weaknesses

[gusty nova]

Hey guys im trying to learn how to speed flip and im able to do a normal flip cancel but im not able to do it diagonally does anyone know why?

[vale tangle]

deadzone too high only thing i can think of

[gusty nova]

thank you

i dont think the deadzone fixed it, hm i dont know what the heck it is

[vale tangle]

if it's 0.05-0.10 then i'm not sure what would cause an issue with it. just do in between a diagonal and front flip, then cancel it on the same side and hold. air roll the same direction as the flip the entire time from first flip to ground. do all steps extremely fast and it will be speedflip.

for right flip i do about 1 o'clock to 5 o'clock and it's a very quick snap and the two inputs to flip also has to be really fast

[loud seal]

I couldnt do the wall to air with on both sides out the other

[gusty nova]

what should my deadzones be for controller?

[vale tangle]

you can do it i do with only air roll right and most pro do one air roll both side, it doesn't really make any difference at all

[vale tangle]

0.05 or 0.07 controller deadzone with 0.70 dodge deadzone is standard

[loud seal]

yes it does because if you want to roll the other side you cant unelss you waste time

[gusty nova]

not flip reset

speed flip

[vale tangle]

it doesn't waste time because already you should want to pop it high giving you plenty of room for extra rotation, or can use free air roll if you need to shoot a close ball.

[neat wagon]

who tryna carr yme out of plat

[exotic schooner]

lmao i was struggling get past plat 3 div 4 even got demoted to p2 but now im d2

[fallen coral]

guys

can anyone help me wit dsirectianoal airoll plz

[barren lake]

I'm peak gold lf a coach ps5

Guys is default settings like binds worth changing or nah ??

[novel canyon]

yes

can psyonix fix their game so i can verse a human in ranked pls

[barren lake]

Can u dm me and help me then pls

Cuz idk what to change lol

Can sm1 help me with binds I need to know which ones to change bcuz I wanna improve

[ocean gale]

what air roll

[meager tapir]

U can beat the bots by pinching , well only if it's 1 bot, if they play splitscreen forget it haha

[novel canyon]

in 1s they get possession and just air dribble bump you. in 2s they are always partied up

[velvet sluice]

demo, air dribble bump anything that gets the ball away from them or them away from the ball

and if bots r higher ranked then people should be able to understand how to execute such actions

[meager tapir]

Yeh psychos also works too

[velvet sluice]

basically

[novel canyon]

good idea. ill just consistently hit 10+ psychos to stave off the goal they inevitably score the second they get possession.

anyway, i know you're just trying to help but these bots are so frustrating

[meager tapir]

Yeh I feel U

I think the best attempt is to demo them

Funny how in normal circumstances you want to keep the ball close but with these clankers you want to glass cannon it

[novel canyon]

i wish epic games just added a way to not q into epic games accounts exclusively. would basically fix the problem for me

[scenic kayak]

How to rank up to diamond?

[meager tapir]

I think there's a setting U turn off cross platform

[novel canyon]

if ur steam you still q against epic accounts

[meager tapir]

Look up how to get to champ from vids that are 2 to 3 yrs old because diamond is the new champ as of 2026

[scenic kayak]

Okay Ty

[gusty sandal]

Would just devide and it would be even worse

[meager tapir]

Let's hope the new anti cheat next update actually works

[gusty sandal]

Maybe for like a week

There are always loopholes

[astral trail]

guys i have a question
cant rocket league ban ppl who are throwing the match by seeing if they have 3 or more own goals?
every 5 matches i get queued w smn who throws for no apparent reason so i was wondering how to stop that T-T

[meager tapir]

Lol the working solution is having something like Vanguard but community does not like that stuff

[gusty sandal]

Almost impossible to tell whats on purpose or not

[meager tapir]

They do ban but they aren't perma bans so they just come back like nothing happened

[astral trail]

i mean if its 3 or more own goals its gotta be throwing no?

[gusty sandal]

No

[astral trail]

extreme bad luck ig then if u get banned

[meager tapir]

It's report count based

[astral trail]

oh

[meager tapir]

Yeh just spam the report count but even then it's not perma ban

[gusty sandal]

And also they won't gp through a game unless someone reports and mang report like every single teammate that makes one mistake

[astral trail]

T-T

[meager tapir]

Yeh gang I feel U it gets to a point where U really need a tm8 invite

[dense meteor]

yo

[gusty sandal]

Are you saying a duo?

[astral trail]

some tm8s are so good, some throw for no reason

plat is a weird place to be

[meager tapir]

If U played for while U know when U on a win streak U get worser tm8s

[astral trail]

and for some reason nobody gives space in my games even my teammate is sniffing my ass and bumping me

[gusty sandal]

No

There aren't even any bad teammates just teammates you can't adapt to, now ofc besides boosted people but those are very few

[meager tapir]

There are people who are trying to derank

[gusty sandal]

I can 100% say you also throw

[gusty sandal]

Even fewer than boosted people

[astral trail]

i have never thrown a game, maybe u think im saying making mistakes and obv i do make mistakes, i mean legit throwing like attempting to score on our own goal

[gusty sandal]

Then that I can also say 100% sure barley anyone does that

[astral trail]

maybe ur a high rank, cuz there are bad tm8s, ppl who ballchase all the time, hog ball and boost, stick to u or take the shot when u are trying to make a play

[astral trail]

i j said i got 2 ppl in 10 games who threw for no reason

[meager tapir]

Even though there are a few, the matchmaking frequently puts u with them a couple of times + small region servers

[gusty sandal]

You just described what not being able to adapt causes

[gusty sandal]

Like 1/15

Maybe even less

[gusty sandal]

How so you know they threw?

[astral trail]

im sorry, but does that mean i should j leave the ball and stya in my goalpost? im asking genuinely

[astral trail]

cuz they were dribbling the ball from the other side into my net ?

[gusty sandal]

No, I am saying adapt to your teammate and not being able to adapt causes you to think your teammate is the worse in your rank

[gusty sandal]

How much of the match was left?

[astral trail]

its hard to adapt if they j go and try to shoot the ball from any point no matter where the ball is;

[gusty sandal]

Doesn't sound hard tbh

[astral trail]

we were winning 7-1 at 3 mins left, tm8 started to owngoal, i thought maybe to taunt other team, but bro didnt stop and we lost 8-9

[astral trail]

what rank are u? and what wud u do?

[quaint sedge]

[meager tapir]

He's the guy who invented the astral pinch 😂

[quaint sedge]

This statement will change as you progress thru the ranks buddy ^^

[tribal sage]

anyone wanna coach me im on OCE and i dont have a mic

[gusty sandal]

He could be mad at you or it could something else or it could really be just throwing for no reason but you should always and I mean always take "throwing for no reason" as the absolute last reason and definitely not the first

[exotic schooner]

rocket league is hell anyway

[astral trail]

why wud he be mad at me if i scored 6 of the 7 goals? and what rank are u

[gusty sandal]

Idk, I didn't see the game

[meager tapir]

His ssl bro his literally Aztral

[quaint sedge]

did you just make a 6 7 peak?

[astral trail]

im sorry i didnt try to do that

lol

[meager tapir]

Look up astral pinch this dude famous for that

[astral trail]

j tell me what rank u are

[gusty sandal]

Not why I picked this name

[meager tapir]

😂😂😂

[astral trail]

why are u avoiding my question bro

[gusty sandal]

Pokepel knows

[meager tapir]

He's ssl

[gusty sandal]

You have been asking question on questions and his statement was also before that question

[stable forge]

Yes please sry for not replying

[quaint sedge]

youre a good match 🙂

[gusty sandal]

Why did you get angry when I asked why you would ask if I wanted a replay review?

[astral trail]

asked 4 mins ago

[quaint sedge]

see, now with all the questions 🙂

[astral trail]

ive asked 3 times, pls tell me now :D

[exotic schooner]

jus drop it he aint tellin u

[gusty sandal]

@lavish mason knows

[buoyant oak]

hey can sm1 call me and like i stream a match and u tell me what im doing wrong

[meager tapir]

Bro his literally Aztral hahahah 😂😂😂

[astral trail]

no cuz he gives "advice" like he knows evth, and unless he is a good rank i dont think he is worth listening to

[quaint sedge]

anger is something you have made up by yourself, thats not true, however you are so silly i cant progress a conversation with you.

[gusty sandal]

Just asking a question, will you answer or not?

[wooden juniper]

@dry pollen

[tribal sage]

anyone wanna coach me im on OCE and i dont have a mic

[exotic schooner]

bro u can be bronze and be a coach, theres champs that cant do mechs ranks irrelevant

[meager tapir]

What rank r u

[tribal sage]

gold

[dry pollen]

What?

[ocean gale]

tell the kangaroos i said hi

[gusty sandal]

... you put on ignore when I just asked why

[tribal sage]

https://tenor.com/view/dry-as-hell-michael-che-saturday-night-live-so-dry-uneventful-gif-19002906

[gusty sandal]

The only ones who is silly is you

[astral trail]

u cant tho, didnt this guy get to gc without any mechs for a video series?

[quaint sedge]

so why not simply say yes or no when somebody comes with an offer 🙂

[astral trail]

ok j avoid it brochacho

[gusty sandal]

I wanted to know why you think I wanted

And no would still be answer

[worn magnet]

Jump is A
Boost is B
X is power slide
Y is ball cam
Left bumper and right bumper are the direction air rolls (it doesn’t matter what way round you do it just do whatever your comfortable with)
Left stick click is scoreboard
LT reverse
RT drive
I think that is it

[quaint sedge]

the reason is that i wanted to coach somebody, and u were in here.

[gusty sandal]

Ok, thx

[exotic schooner]

its not my point, dont assign mechs to ranks. a gc can air dribble so can a daimond both can give u useful info if you get what i mean

[astral trail]

i get u but the "knowledge" he was giving was bs

[exotic schooner]

isnt jump and boost meant to be able to be clicked simultaneously and comfortably

[gusty sandal]

Already told him but he is just blind

[exotic schooner]

so ask monk then idk

[meager tapir]

Is there a specific area U wanna focus on?

[astral trail]

i am not asking smn named pokepal, why dont u j tell me directly

[worn magnet]

It makes the slightest difference, if you are quick like I am the it’s a matter of milliseconds

[exotic schooner]

what rank are you tho 👀

[tribal sage]

air dribbling

[gusty sandal]

"There are no bad teammates only teammates you can't adapt to" was this bs?

[ocean gale]

😂

[worn magnet]

What’s funny

Black Bob what is so funny

[ocean gale]

nothing bro dw about it

[exotic schooner]

@astral trail what rank are you

[quaint sedge]

however there are teammates that simply dont care that you are on the team, and will cut you at all times. I ff those games. Ego bs.

[gusty sandal]

He is plat

[worn magnet]

What rank are you then @ocean gale if your so good

[astral trail]

yes, cuz u cant adapt to someone bumping u j to touch the ball, even if u backoff they will be on the other side of the field grabbing boost, leaving u in a 2v1 alone

[ocean gale]

never said i was good bro

[worn magnet]

What rank are you

[astral trail]

plat

[gusty sandal]

Weak mentality

[tribal sage]

oi bob u dry asf

[worn magnet]

Answer the question @ocean gale

[quaint sedge]

i agree! 🙂

[exotic schooner]

its plat, teamates are going to over commit and ball chase, play passive

[gusty sandal]

I mean you

[astral trail]

u give incel, wanna be alpha vibes

[ocean gale]

no

[quaint sedge]

yes, and i agree.

[ocean gale]

thanks g

[exotic schooner]

🤣

[astral trail]

i initally started this convo asking ppl how to avoid tm8s who throw on purpose, i do generally play passive but it doesnt always help, and this astral guy keeps yapping about how i cant adapt

[worn magnet]

Yh cause you know your ass so stop laughing as if my advice isn’t good. Your controls are based on what you feel comfortable with, if mine are what I like and it gets me gc2 then I suggest you stop talking

[gusty sandal]

You can adapt to them, give me a replay where this teammate was unadaptable and I will tell you it was possible with proof

[astral trail]

j stfu brotein shake

[exotic schooner]

i mean only time ive ever seen tm8s who throw are when it gets toxic or if youre in the wrong. thats my personal experience. if thats not the case then youre one out of a million who consistently experience that

[gusty sandal]

You can't adapt and your afraid of admitting it

[ocean gale]

whatever makes you sleep better at night bud

[trim finch]

How tf do i get out of plat

yeah man i agree, u are way better than me even when u play with ur feet, u should be a coach in rlcs

[exotic schooner]

u dont

[gusty sandal]

He doesn't consistently experience it there aren't that many people who do that its like 1 out of 20 games and thats being nice

[trim finch]

Right

[exotic schooner]

im aware

[worn magnet]

You’re chatting straight out your ass, you come on here and start laughing at people that are miles better than you. Bore off

Nobody asked you to get involved @ocean gale

[astral trail]

well, mayeb i had an unusual spike inn my last 10 games, cuz 2 ppl threw, one was j random af, the other one i was teamed w smn who was my opp lsat match and got beat 7-0 last match; so maybe a grudge?

[astral trail]

fr

[velvet sluice]

rank?

[exotic schooner]

yea more than likely

[astral trail]

please tell me ur rank

[trim finch]

I js saw my tm8 owngoal 3 times

I broke my controllr

[astral trail]

mine do it on purpose

[quaint sedge]

^^

[trim finch]

He took my boost used it to get another one and we get scored on

[velvet sluice]

no they dont unless something makes them mad

[trim finch]

And says what a save

[novel canyon]

gc2 in 2s literally c1 rn in 1s and still versing 4 bots for 5 games

[gusty sandal]

I am not trying to say I am better than you, it was you in the first place that took that route, you just can't take criticism that actually affects you and instead you make it seem like someone is trying to press you down by showing how much better they are then you

[trim finch]

Tell me thats not a federal crime

[astral trail]

im telling u one was j random and uncalled for

[ocean gale]

why u so mad bro

[velvet sluice]

then i think u have the skills to know what to use and when to use it to beat the bots

[astral trail]

can u j tell me ur rank brochacho

[velvet sluice]

wasint he was mad and there has to be something to make him mad in the first place

[gusty sandal]

I literally did

[trim finch]

Unless they are brainless why would they owngoal bc I made rhem mad plus no one js makes sm1 else mad for no reason

He is in p2

[gusty sandal]

Thats what i said he just refuses to listen

[trim finch]

And cant aerial for the life of him

[velvet sluice]

Oh hes p2?😭

[novel canyon]

@astral trail it is very rare for people to toss. it sucks when it does happen but just move on

[exotic schooner]

@velvet sluice ^^

[astral trail]

no legit we were having a good match, no one was ballchasing, we were up 7-1 and he own goaled 8 times so we lost 8-9 :DDD

[trim finch]

YES BRO I AM HITTING FLIP RESETS AND THEY CANT EVEN HIT THE BALL.

[velvet sluice]

both r ur fault probably @exotic schooner

[grim compass]

I always make people mad for no reason

[trim finch]

[novel canyon]

trust me bro I’m getting slammed 16-0

[astral trail]

yeah i moved on, i initally came here asking what i can do to not queue with them; and i moved on, and this astral giuy starts coming at me not being able to adapt

[exotic schooner]

yea but he speaks on it like its every game

[grim compass]

W plat

[exotic schooner]

its a fair point

[velvet sluice]

exactly let it js go

[ocean gale]

i just thought it was funny how he formulated his message 💀 nothing to do with his advice or smth

[trim finch]

Ffs

[velvet sluice]

man js train lots these days there r lots of bots, try to duo q and if u see bots in 1s or 2s js ff on spot lwk

[astral trail]

i let it go but this astral guy pmo after yapping abt me not adapting to ppl owngoaling

[exotic schooner]

instantly went to 100 aswell

[gusty sandal]

Are you seriously saying, why would the fire hurt when I added fuel to the fire

[exotic schooner]

lmao

[velvet sluice]

i mean u are meant to adapt in ur rank to how ur braindead mates play something weird, hes saying u make them mad which is correct a valid point, but ur also supposed to know why they r mad and not to do so they dont tilt and so dont u

[novel canyon]

don’t take it the wrong way, but it is probably true to some extent. play how you want but if you can learn how to consistently play around all different play styles you’ll do a lot better

[velvet sluice]

when u get someone mad they tilt themselves and you so its best to just disable quickchat

[delicate turret]

ngl I always see that astral guy arguing in this chat, i wouldn't listen much to him

[exotic schooner]

i can help both of you by directing you #looking-for-group

[velvet sluice]

i personally have quickchat disabled

[grim compass]

It’s a game of rl not a game of controlling your tm8s temper tantrums

[exotic schooner]

read the chats its a fair point

[velvet sluice]

then dont make them mad?

[ocean gale]

i usually dont have that effect on people 😃

[velvet sluice]

they are not there to listen to u arguning about mistakes

[gusty sandal]

If you don't read the message, don't comment like you know

[velvet sluice]

just let them be its plat 2 nobody is gonna do anything right

[exotic schooner]

your name might have angered him

[grim compass]

Not my fault if my t8 gets mad over a game

I’d rather them lose if they are that soft

[velvet sluice]

ur faut cause u made him mad

[mint solar]

How should i set my keybinds in controller my lt is powerslide and airroll left is that fine?

[ocean gale]

well well well 👍🏿

[velvet sluice]

if i get what a saved by my own mate or nice shot after a miss i would also get mad

[long slate]

some people cant handle a game not being serious fr

[velvet sluice]

its a game of fun not argument and anger

[grim compass]

Then you need to learn to calm yourself down

[gusty sandal]

Just quit the game

[velvet sluice]

your the one whos mad that they do mistakes esp in plat 2

[exotic schooner]

easiest way to avoid it is complimenting every goal

[novel canyon]

not always, sometimes you get already tilted or just nasty tm8s, but even then most people just wanna q and have some fun

[astral trail]

im sorry, but i cant adapt to people who own goal on purpose lol, what am i meant to do, 3v1? and when tm8s ballchase and boosthog, i play passive; but sometimes its not enough, ik im not that good, but i still dont understand how to adapt in such scenarios...some teammates are good and we have instant chem tho; there isnt a middleground

[grim compass]

You quit the game loser 😎

[velvet sluice]

ong bro thats what i always do

[astral trail]

oh lol

[gusty sandal]

You are literally a full tank of gasoline and nobody wants you here

[velvet sluice]

true i agree w u lowkey

[grim compass]

I’m not mad 👊🏽

[velvet sluice]

[exotic schooner]

bad tm8 s are inevitable, adapt. problem fixed

[velvet sluice]

YES

[novel canyon]

I promise you bro at most it is like 1/50 games where people through on purpose. I am a high rank in a small region where I consistently get people on my team who I know dislike me, they still just play the game most the time…

[velvet sluice]

point given just stay in net and let them stick it in bro

stick it in net

[gusty sandal]

Teammates with different playstyles you aren't prepared for*

[exotic schooner]

🤣🤣

[grim compass]

🤨

[velvet sluice]

in net

[exotic schooner]

no difference from dai and below

[grim compass]

I preferred it without the in net

[velvet sluice]

WOOOOOOOOOW

[astral trail]

ik i j had an unusual spike in the last 10 games, im a low rank in a small region, and i never claimed it happens always, until ppl came at me for no reason; i j started the convo by asking ppl what i can do to report them

[tribal sage]

who can teach me to air dribble pretty bad

[grim compass]

People on discord are freaks, you just gotta adapt to bad discord users and play the game well

Adapt adapt adapt

[novel canyon]

just report them for throwing? That is a report option I’m pretty sure, and if they get reported a lot they’ll be banned. otherwise just chalk it up to a bad match from your tm8, will help ur mental a lot more

[velvet sluice]

yh and if u get mad enough send clips to aastral and block him right after

[grim compass]

You don’t get banned for anything other than text chat tbh

[gusty sandal]

You need to send the entire replay

[tribal sage]

who can teach me to air dribble pretty bad

[gusty sandal]

A clip doesn't show much

[tribal sage]

who can teach me to air dribble pretty bad

[astral trail]

no liek i meant how do i not get in queue w them again cuz sometimes i get re queed with them

[velvet sluice]

i dont think any plat 2 wants to send over the whole match bro😭

[vale tangle]

Report for throwing doees nothing and I've confirmed that. I had a player own goal over 15 times across the span of 3 games in a row. Reported them every time, and guess what happened? Nothing.

[tribal sage]

who can teach me to air dribble im pretty bad but im not dumb

[astral trail]

exactly

[gusty sandal]

You sent over a plat 3 game?

[velvet sluice]

it works buddy i got banned

[velvet sluice]

im d3 im not ashamed to send a clip of an idiot running round the pitch

cause ik its not my rank it aint that deep for me

[vale tangle]

I don't know how it's possible if that player didn't. What did you do to throw the game where it detected you?

[meager tapir]

I can

[novel canyon]

at worst just q 1s for a bit and q 2s another time

[tribal sage]

dm

[novel canyon]

Not ideal but nothing else you can do

[velvet sluice]

curse and js throw own goals left n right

[astral trail]

T-T thanks

[velvet sluice]

NO PLASE

[gusty sandal]

I mean when you were plat 3

[vale tangle]

Probably for chat you got banned or some combination

[velvet sluice]

ah back then i was also an idiot running round the pitch

[ocean gale]

i would take different settings if i were you but if you are used to it then maybe work around it. Just take a pro his binds

[barren totem]

what is the best way to not go above the ball on a start of a air play

[velvet sluice]

probs but combination proves it i guess

[velvet sluice]

by staying low

[barren totem]

yeah ik

[gusty sandal]

Its reports based

[tribal sage]

i dmed you

[gusty sandal]

Not game based

[barren totem]

that is what i was asking the best way to do

[gusty sandal]

That person would need multiple reports from different people

[meager tapir]

1 sec I'm hopping on the game

[tribal sage]

okay

[gusty sandal]

It doesn't work if just one person does it

[ocean gale]

Rotate back post if they beat you or keep safe distance or just beat them to the ball if u can

[grim compass]

Still wouldn’t get banned

[vale tangle]

It's not good. I will recommend move powerslide + normal air roll to LB, then keep air roll left on LT. For all other binds keep them default or put whever you want.

[gusty sandal]

I don't even think they look at it if its just one person

[velvet sluice]

either way this game is horrible

[gusty sandal]

Perma banned no, temporary banned yes

[vale tangle]

You can test it yourself by going on an alt account and throwing games. I promise you won't get banned unless you type in chat, I've never seen it.

[grim compass]

I used to get reported for throwing by the whole lobby like every other game and I never got even temp banned

I’ve never been banned over like 4 years of playing for anything other than text chat

[gusty sandal]

Well I have literally heard it and seen it

[novel canyon]

Such a non issue as well in the current state of the game. a very small amount of people actively toss, who cares compared to the fact that ai has literally taken over the upper ranks

[gusty sandal]

How do you know they reported?

[grim compass]

Well they are implementing EAC but that’s not gonna do nish

[astral trail]

how do i get out of plat

[grim compass]

Cause they say I’m reporting

[gusty sandal]

And then they don't do it

[vale tangle]

Report system is a joke and Rocket League is like the wild west of games. If you don't like your teammate you can just drive around in circles and own goal a couple times and won't be banned. You can say anything you want as long as it's not on a list of banned words. You can have an infinite amount of smurf accounts and it's not just uninforced but explicitly allowed by Psyonix. If you want to rank up, you're going to have to tough it out and just grind through the nonsense there's no way around it.

[novel canyon]

play the game for approximately 4000 hours and you’ll likely be ssl

[grim compass]

It’s rl players I’m sure they report

Probably would report if you had like 300 less points than them

[astral trail]

im good T-T

[grim compass]

That’s why you don’t get banned because it’s too hard to prove you are throwing not just playing bad

[exotic schooner]

power shots and aireals

[novel canyon]

idk man I think I’m playing a different game from you guys. the community is not that bad tbh

[gusty sandal]

Basic shooting

[astral trail]

i have a gc friend teaching me fast ariels

[novel canyon]

most people if tilted enough will just abandon or talk 💩 in chat

[grim compass]

This is more a low rank thing high rank they just insta leave

[exotic schooner]

takes 30 seconds to learn fast aireals learn accuracy and power

[astral trail]

like 3 weeks ago i played for 3 hours and went from gold 2 to plat 2

[astral trail]

im kbm btw so its less intuitive

[exotic schooner]

switch to controller

[grim compass]

Kbm goated

[hidden anvil]

hello im new can someone help me do the new challs so i can play rank

[novel canyon]

solution to community is to just play 1s with chat off till you hit gc then I guess.

[astral trail]

my right thumb has chronic pain due to an injury so i cant

[grim compass]

Well it was but now once you hit champ it’s cooked

[gusty sandal]

You just said its bots all the way through

[exotic schooner]

get fentanyl

[astral trail]

hook me up w sum

[exotic schooner]

🙂‍↔️🙂‍↔️

[vale tangle]

Pay attention to your kickoffs and score open nets. If I play in plat 1. I will just score off kickoff 5 times 2. I will score many open net which are free but they miss all the time trying to play 'fast'. That's it everything else you can forget about until Diamond. Except in defense you will want to move closer to the play but then full boost away from it, many low rank player they will be far from the play then move close to it. Move close to it then far away instead.

[gusty sandal]

Train basic shooting with workshop maps

[novel canyon]

yeah but hopefully epic games fix it in the 6-12 months minimum it’d take for anyone in this chat below c1 in 2s to hit c1 in 1s

[grim compass]

You’re probably scoring kickoff cause you are speed flipping well and getting there before they even make it

[exotic schooner]

plats miss the ball more often than you think

[grim compass]

On kickoff lol?

They just drive passed it or what

[exotic schooner]

yea maybe not every game but yea

land weirdly go around it etc

[gusty sandal]

Its from the flips

[astral trail]

i learnt pretty consistent speedflip but idk how to do it on kickoffs i reach it first but it bounces off themonto my half so i avoid it

[vale tangle]

Exactly I can just speedflip it past them straight into the goal about half the time. But many times also they just miss the kickoff, maybe 35% of the time or mess up horribly. If you are consistent and good with any kickoff and pay close attention and try to improve kickoffs, then you will certainly rank up immediately just off the one or two extra goals you get or prevent.

[astral trail]

no as smn in plat they barely miss it

[exotic schooner]

alr bro

[grim compass]

Send a clip

[exotic schooner]

i was plat 2 24 hours ago im d2 now lmao

[astral trail]

unless we attempt speedflips in which case we j fly to the other half in a straight line

[astral trail]

lol

[grim compass]

Makes sense they be trying to speed flip without knowing how too

[vale tangle]

If you speedflip properly they won't be able to touch the ball at all. I can just come at it from the side and hit it past them, I don't even need to flip into it.

[grim compass]

Fake kickoffs go hard in plat 1 aswell

[astral trail]

i cant do it on angles i can do it if i have a long stretch in front of me like idk how to explain it im ahh but if i have some momentum it feels natural and doable

[grim compass]

Free cross map air dribble every time

[astral trail]

into a triple reset pogo musty

[grim compass]

Zactly

[astral trail]

my go-to shot generally

[grim compass]

But you can just pop it and get one touch to the net and that’s probably a goal every time

[vale tangle]

It's hard so focus on just getting center on the ball and flipping not too early or late into it. You need to jump before you hit the ball, then sideflip the ball in the direction they are least covering to push it through. Even in GC player are bad at kickoffs, and they are flipping too late into the ball. In low ranks sometimes they flip too early as well or cannot get center at all. You need to position to block them not like you are shooting the ball, then push it through their weakside.

[astral trail]

do u like speedflip then jump into the ball agaion?

[vale tangle]

In plat I will simply speedflip then tap the ball past them with the corner of my car. But this is risky and I won't recommend it unless you are good at speedflipping and competent with movement. Any kickoff will do even just boosting at the ball, as long as you correctly get center to absorb them and then push it through with sideflip. Against player in Diamond+, I will speedflip as soon as possible to give myself more time to align and do the second flip into the ball early enough. Then will jump and sideflip the ball to push it through, yes.

[limber python]

i have a question abt speed flip as well look https://medal.tv/games/rocket-league/clips/mcDbotnIv7cty7u1S?invite=cr-MSwwVUEsODE2MTUxMjA&v=6

[vale tangle]

Try watching your replays from an above view, so you can see how you lost or won the kickoff in terms of physics.

[limber python]

my things are green but i cant hit the ball by like 1 milisecond

[astral trail]

oh

[vale tangle]

Don't worry training pack it's nonsense. But the reason why you don't hit is because there is too much movement side to side slowing down your path which is unrelated to the speedflip itself.

[astral trail]

broski i have no clue i come for advice too

[lost plume]

When you play matches, will you also have the green gauge?

[limber python]

no gng

i js wanna do a good speed flip am practicing i mess up a lot in matches

[lost plume]

No need a green gauge for see if your speeflip is good or not.

[limber python]

u geeked or somethning bro

[lost plume]

I hope the green bar is in your favor...

[vale tangle]

only purpose of speedflip is that you can go in a straight line near the ground while boosting the entire time, and it's not a sideflip. if you can meet that criteria then it is a speedflip. it takes some refining and practice to get it more straight and clean so you don't have to move as much side to side and will therefore be faster.

it's not necessary any training pack or plugin just compare your flip to pro player and see if it is looking similar and if your inputs match their overlay

I had learned speedflip completely by accident

[lost plume]

But you don't need to see a green bar to have a good speedflip, because when you're launch a match, where is the green bar?

[vale tangle]

especially training packs are known to be troll, where you can do speedflip and not hit. for example it will spawn car 1mm above the ground, so doing the speedflip right away or later on or tiny things will grief it. it was common knowledge many years ago to just avoid it

[lost plume]

So, you only practice in freeplay mode?

[vale tangle]

if someone wants they can send me code and i will try it and see if it's troll or if i hit every time, my speedflip is extremely clean as high level 1s main

[vale tangle]

I have always only used freeplay to practice no workshop, with rare exception when I am feeling bad I will do basic shooting training packs like ground shots

[lost plume]

Ok

[gusty sandal]

Not the purpose of the green bar

It is so you can improve yourself and you can't know what you don't know and that plugin is to help you understand what things effect the speedflip

[modern prism]

cn any1 coach me fr im c2

[scenic tide]

How do I know if I got the flip cancel in speed flips?

[velvet sluice]

what the fork

did u say?

[modern prism]

u go supersonic

if u do diagonal u go weirdly
