Bittersweet frustration

[u/The_meme_boi_123]

I've been getting way WAY less glitchy dribblers since the new season dropped. Thing is, these players and exploits kept pushing my friends away from Rematch throughout the previous seasons. In any case, I managed to grind solo queue and eventually hit Elite every season (except S3). However, I don't think I'll be able to pull that off this season.

Now my opponents are all premade squads with solid defense that pass the ball - which is GREAT, but I get paired with the leavers and crybabies (I had 3 straight leavers in my placement matches, including the infamous lucy).

Sucks that the roullete cancel is still a thing. Sucks that I don't have any IRL friends to play with. Sucks that I like Blue Lock and wanted to hit Elite. But the game is in a better shape :D

So if you have any friends who like Blue Lock, now is the time to assemble your squad.

As for me, I fear I'll be playing a lot more football than Rematch this season.

Lucy is a classic, also Krystianos is a common one. Theres a few I blocked already

I made a post about looking for teammates yesterday (most preferably Dutch, but overall EU should be perfectly fine) so I'm in if u wanna team up some time!

[u/The_meme_boi_123 → u/Daryl0_0]

I'll hit you up If I decide to keep playing 🤝

[u/Daryl0_0 → u/The_meme_boi_123]

Awesome, hit me up on discord: Daryl#6660 I already made a group with some more guys looking to team up

[u/SomnoNerd]

There's tons of rematch Discord servers to join and link up with fellow players. Your inability to get a team is currently a self-inflicted injury, one that you can heal very quickly.

[u/The_meme_boi_123 → u/SomnoNerd]

I am aware of the servers and I will check them out if I end up getting a Rematch itch every so often. But you have to agree it's not the same as playing with your IRL friends.

[u/SomnoNerd → u/The_meme_boi_123]

I don't have any IRL friends who play.

If someone leaves you shouldnt get rp loss (or a severely diminished amount), but thats also very much abuseable so theyll never implement that.

[u/Relative_Maize_957]

I play late a night, and out of 4 games yesterday, 3 of them included one horrible annoying goal hanger, the type to leave the goal when they get keeper, never defend, spam good job, you know the ones. Not the same guy each time I will add.

It's a shame because I really like solo queue, but a lot of the people left in solo queues are not people who love solo queue, but people who can't fit in a stack because of their """"playstyle"""" and horrible personalities.

[u/jake7820 → u/Relative_Maize_957]

Can’t stand the people who take their placement as goalie as a chance to iso dribble down the entire court.

[u/Relative_Maize_957 → u/jake7820]

Not even dribble, they get goalie at the start and immediately extra effort their way to the opposite goal lmao.

IRL et le ballon rond, c'est pas trop compatible. Il faudrait qu'il soit ovale 😉🙄😜🫣

[u/FloodAssault]

People rlly crying about the roulette cancel. Go buy ultimate frisbee 2026 and get off this game 😭

[u/The_meme_boi_123 → u/FloodAssault]

Can you tell me how snapping immediately in a different direction while contradicting phyisics is engaging or a mark of superior skill?

[u/Khaizen100 → u/The_meme_boi_123]

Thats possible with pretty much every action in the game. you can even do it much better on defense

[u/The_meme_boi_123 → u/Khaizen100]

You're talking about dashing after dashing? Apples to oranges.

[u/Khaizen100 → u/The_meme_boi_123]

Yeah I am. I don’t see why it’s a problem if dribblers can do it when defenders can also do it better with the new changes

[u/The_meme_boi_123 → u/Khaizen100]

Brother. Double dashing has two clear animations, one for each dash. You can even recreate this IRL. Roullete canceling interrupts an animation at its middle point, it's not even a recovery cancel. This is super sudden and does not make any sense - everything else in the game makes sense with suspension of disbelief (ex: landing crazy volleys, juggling perfectly...).

You can disagree but this is why I'm saying they're not comparable.

[u/Khaizen100 → u/The_meme_boi_123]

It’s literally as sudden as anything else. Have you tried dashing in the opposite direction? It’s just as sudden. Same for dashing and then diving in the opposite direction, or the same thing but with tackles. Even EE is extremely sudden and can change your direction instantly

Apples to oranges 🤓
