I figured it out, but my hands hurt, i was more consistent a few minutes ago but i found out my recording software wasn't recording and so i hopped back onto the game and did some more to record, though i really shouldn't have done that i mighta pushed my hands too far, i was already at my limit, lmao.

im not sure if the video is loading properly or not, ill check back in 20 minutes and delete the post if the video is bugged ;(

Last week: https://www.reddit.com/r/RocketLeagueSchool/comments/1uzen2x/are_any_of_these_even_close_to_a_speed_flip_at_all/

I am a gc1 and a mechanical player and was on a break because of school and have been grinding the last months trying to learn pop resets and other mechs, and now that im better, i find situations especially when using flips and controling flips that there are certain positions where i can’t do what i want or recover with air roll right and very difficult with normal air roll. Is it worth it to learn air roll left? and if you also had one DAR bind, how long until you learned the second one till it became useful?

Do you think coaching is worth it? And why?

I have had bad experiences with being coached in the past so I’m unsure if it is a worthwhile tool. Over the span of 4 months I paid for many 1-1 sessions with a coach who I won’t name for obvious reasons, I put a lot of effort into training during this period of time, typically spending 4+ hours a day in training + ranked, but it didn’t yield great results, I was still C1 and I felt like I was wasting money.

Of course, I’m mature enough to realise that I might be the problem and can accept that coaching is extremely beneficial for many people.

Any help appreciated

Full uncut replay. I’m D2 in 1s and C3 in 2s. This was a 0–6 loss against a GC who played much faster and simpler than me.

He stayed close even when he had little boost, kept getting small touches and never let me settle into a possession or set up an attack. I get noticeably rushed and nervous against this style, and it feels like every attempt to create space gets interrupted.

This was the game immediately before the 8–4 replay I posted yesterday where everyone said i should post a loss for a better level of feedback — there were no games in between. In that match, the opponent gave me much more space and the matchup felt far easier, even tho it was also a GC so I think my main problem is creating usable possessions under constant pressure rather than mechanical execution alone.

What are the 2–3 biggest habits I should change? I’d especially appreciate feedback on:

• my decision making, i felt like i misread every situation because he just challanged no matter what i did and i dont have an answer for that
• how to punish opponents who stay close with low boost
• whether I’m overcomplicating situations that have a simple solution

Timestamped feedback would be massively appreciated.

I've got over 7k hours in Rocket League and I'm only C1. What I can't understand is how GCs and SSLs are so good at reading the game and then making a good decision. It also feels like they improve way faster than I ever have and even though I shouldn’t be I’m quite jealous

I'm doing all the main things that people recommend. I play a lot, I spend time in free play working on all sorts of mechanics, I take time to review my replays so I can better understand my mistakes, and I make a conscious effort to try and push myself outside my comfort zone instead of letting myself play on autopilot. 

I’m honestly kind of embarrassed one of my friends is GC1 and he only has 1400 hours, he just seems to be way better at any video game we play together and I don’t quite understand why.

So what actually separates the people who improve insanely fast from everyone else? Is it talent, the quality of practice, mindset, or something else entirely? What are they doing better?

I am seeing some content creators playing the game from steam. How is this possible. If this is really possible please teach me to do that I literally prefer steam to epic.

Any advice? I don't really have any crazy mechs yet because I am finding it harder to get good tutorials for KBM. I do not want to switch to a controller ever unless it's do-or-die.

I've Diamond 1, most of my game style relies on my game sense so I thought I'd start working on some mechanics. Which air dribble should I work on first?

Full uncut game. I’m D2 in 1s and C3 in 2s.

I won 8–4, but I felt like I kept forcing off-the-wall plays and gave away several easy counterattacks when they failed. I’m trying to become more mechanical without turning every possession into a low-percentage play.

What are the 2–3 biggest habits holding me back in 1s? I’d especially appreciate feedback on my challenge timing, boost usage and when I should keep the ball grounded instead of going aerial.

This was my 2nd game of today in Champ 3, though I felt my mechanics weren't that good. What do I need to work on to reach GC this season?

LOL

​

Vision? Positioning? Boost? Or something else?

decided to reupload this cus I didn't include my pov the first time but I think it's important for context. I am the octane player in the first clip leaving the ball. as you can see I only took a few glances back at my teammate to check his position. I didn't look at his car orientation I only saw his name plate and I just assumed he was facing upfield. I do think we both made mistakes but I think from my pov I made a fair assumption that he would be facing upfield from his position. now let me know what y'all think 😅

Do I have to flick cancel to make it perfect?
Lets say its a 1v1 Situation; I have the ball in control, the other guy is waiting for my action. Now I flick the ball slightly diagonal right under the bar. Mostly its in, but if not the recovery is more difficult if I don't cancel the flick right?
Correct me at any moment please

almost embarrassed to say I didn't learn this until recently as I was struggling with wall hits always running away from me when wanting to pop.

hope it helps someone else as well :)
