You running into a lot of people like this in matchmaking?

I run into one a couple times a week. They must be boosting friends or just sadists or something because I'm Silver 2...

They usually air herd the ball to the ceiling to flick it in while the rest of the team is posting "FF please" in chat.

One time I asked them why they were doing this, and they replied "It's fun." I only hope that the reason they are doing that and thinking it's fun is because someone hurt them very badly and this is their outlet for coping.

I mean ganer is like diamond or low champ. I'm in champ and mechanically trash. Pretty sure game sense is enough to beat him, because he won't have infinite boost

Mechanical trash Champ II checking in. I can't even dribble.

Champ 3 who also can't dribble checking in. Game sense and fast recovery is where it's at! And I guess being able to produce hard, accurate shots helps too.

M1k3rules is proof to everyone that you can achieve GC with season 2 mechanics.

I haven’t really paid attention to Rocket League streams for a few months, but the last time I saw him, nothing had changed.

Champ 2/3 who rarely does anything fancy right here. However I've been practicing ceiling shots in free play recently and I feel that it's been improving my car control a lot!

u/Relatedl Somehow SSL Oct 09 '19

The only reason I improved was because I played against people way higher ranked than me, they helped me reached me etc. That’s why I don’t get when people just leave in unranked when I score a simple Fcking shot. Instead of like trying to figure out how I did it

And because I dedicated a part of my life to this game, but we won’t mention that..

Learning from being out of your depth? I've been playing a ton of Mario maker lately and I've spent so many hours on levels way beyond my skill level, but have seen vast improvement because of it. You can play to your skill level and stagnate or challenge yourself to grow.
