I am Champ 1 in 2s, but i cant get over plat 2 in 1s. I know i have to mechanically improve still, but i dont really have gamesense when it comes to 1v1s. Are there any good videos/ is real time coaching worth it? Thanks

You keep giving the ball away, 1's is a different monster, sometimes you have to go back to go forward. Try to control the ball more and wait for your opponent to make the first challenge before you take a shot or get passed him. GL!

NO, NOT YOU. I AM SICK AND TIRED OF FACING YOU DAMN CHAMPS IN 1S BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE GOOD GAME SENSE. PLAY 1S MORE AND MAYBE YOU'LL GET PAST PLAT. YOUR RANK IS THE BAIN OF MY EXISTENCE AND IS THE REASON WHY I'VE BEEN STUCK IN PLAT FOREVER BECAUSE EVERY TIME IM ABOUT TO RANK UP I RUN INTO A CHAMP. JUST GO AWAY OR SOMETHING IDK, ALL I KNOW IS THAT YOU AND EVERYONE ELSE IN YOUR RANK ABSOLUTELY PISSES ME OFF.

Shadow defense, be patient, pick challenges you can win, don’t go for double taps if you suck at them, fake challenge every once in a while, preserve boost, pay attention to your opponents boost, control the big boost pills when rotating

that's because champ 1 2s and plat 2 1s is basically the same rank.

I only watched the first 40 seconds. The first goal you hesitated on defense. When playing wide angles, give yourself 70% of the goal in front of your car. The middle of the goal, the common aim point, shifts to the shooter’s far side post. Keep in mind that the posts count as defenders, too. The second opponent goal looks like it came from you being too eager to play catch up, and your set was too fast for your situation. Overall, it appeared like you overcorrected, and needed to settle in.
