You have helped me so much. This is my third time coming back to the game - I always quit out of frustration and hitting a wall on progress. Your videos have helped so much, I enrolled in the course today and am very excited to continue improving. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

[@calebbulboaca4051]

Aw man, loved this series! Great choice tho for the last one! Much love from Canada!

[@Delta52_]

I like seeing the progress from Day 1, Week 1, Month 1, etc. Really helps put the hours invested into perspective and gives an idea what proper training and results should look like

[@FlexNiko]

maybe the series is over, but whenever a new move comes out, maybe you can make a walkthrough over your progression on it. for example if a new super hard flick gets released, you can make something like a "20 hours of INSERT COOL FLICK NAME HERE" ... Progressions are fun to watch, and seeing someone on how he approaches learning a new mechanic is also very helpful.

[@c1rcus47]

Hi Thanovic. I have an idea for a new challenge for you. Your videos have been amazing and I've gotten so much out of your content. One of the things I wonder about is coaching mechanics. The way to progress mechanically seems to be like this: Step 1, pick a mechanic you want to work on. Step 2: find a KZbin video. Step 3: practice until you get it. However, the only feedback that the player gets is watching him or herself. There is a great amount of frustration in not understanding where the player is going wrong with their mechanic. Most coaches shy away from teaching mechanics because it such a painstaking process. But what if there was a way to make coaching mechanics palatable for the coach the student? What if doing some videos coaching students on mechanics could help others understand where they are going wrong with actual mechanics or with their approach to learning them? Ideally, coaching speeds along the process of learning material. But why can't mechanics be a more prominent feature of coaching? I challenge you to revolutionize the way that mechanics are learned and taught. It is amazing to watch your progression, and learn about concepts and see your demonstrations. But I challenge you to break out of your comfort zone and invent a way to coach mechanics in a way that will reach as many mechanics-hungry Rocket League players as possible!

[@aid_n7916]

Been working on a 150 hour dribbling video and then you drop this with literally everything I was gonna do lmao

[@KindOldRaven]

The only thing that surprised me as I'm slowly climbing the ladders is that preflips aren't really a thing until higher ranks. I've always done those (and of course missed *plenteh* ...) so that helps out. A weird thing I almost never did using flips off the wall for movement. Don't know why but if there was no wall nearby I would either boost-drive off or jump off (even when in a rush) and that weird habit had followed me from Silver 2 to plat 3.

[@alexforberg9707]

Thanks for all the tips to improve.

Holyyy, dude, you are epic! Thx for the video, it's rly helpful and not boring at all! Wish you 1 million subs, coz ur content is pretty solid!

you said you were nitpicking over the preflips, but man let me tell you light bulbs have gone off in my head now on how I can use preflips more often. thank you

[@why3307]

I love how much you can fake the breezi with the evample tornado spin chain. It is so effective for me idek why

[@snorday8478]

If you want to carry on a series similar, chose a mechanic that you don’t know, like a wave dash flick, and focus on that one flick for a certain amount of time, and truly perfect it. That would be sick to watch

[@stuneed3016]

if you still can't do half Flip because you're a beginner (just like me) just flip back and turn to the side while you're still in the air. 🇧🇷 Amo você thanovic.

[@matts5247]

Holy moly how do you only flip one way? I’ve always used directional air rolls for only so not being able to flip in any direction would be death for me lol

[@caleblinck1]

The fact you don't have over a million subs yet is dumb, this series is awesome wish it wouldn't end

[@evasiity1538]

I use a lot of halflips in my games to get around people by going slightly in front of the ball and half flipping the ball back and catching it

[@notapplicable7292]

A series along the lines of: "In the past 100h I worked on x, y, z" would be quite interesting. Just training one mechanic makes for a good video but it's not really sustainable and I think just discussing the area of your game you were most focused on improving may help others to reassess their own play.

[@PapaMoon]

Just when I thought my ground game was good you hit us with this. Goodbye world, hello training

[@Undermin3d.]

For sure would love to see both those topics revisited, especially since you have improved your ability to wave dash

[@PKRL3322]

I've watched like every one of these and they all helped me improve and gave tips on a certain thing, and if I already knew it, it was just a recap on it, this was a great series and I think the one week of training a certain mechanic idea would be a better balance of time, and sounds like a good idea.

[@urmomdestroyer8312]

hi

[@ashrl2678]

To finish this series you should work on rotation and boost management!! To show to all the plats what is the best to rank up fast.

[@mq_turbo2882]

I really liked the 100 hour series and i learned so much from it and i hope that the next video about it will be about 100 hours of playlists. I knew you since you were at 23k subs. Now im back and i've seen such an improvement in the way you produce your videos and your mechanics have changed immensely

[@goofy9371]

Thanovic, these videos you make help me play faster and more mechanical.

[@ShaunFVG]

My ground mechanics are diamond 2, air feels around Plat 1.i find in unranked I go against mostly champ players. I either get stomped or win with my ground mechanics. They go for fakes more than plats and I guess everyone focuses on air play or throws the ball away. Possession is key in any sports setting lol. Occasionally I get to look way better than I am with this lol. Funny enough I am way more consistent off the wall than jumping from the ground far as the air game. I think it just shows that people take different paths to the point of being good at everything. I enjoyed this series and look forward to what's coming in its place

man i remember when he did the 1 hour of air dribbling vid! time flies

[@dexter.candillo]

What trail do you use? Love the vids btw

[@ripbongwinkle]

I’d also like to see a video on how you improve your game sense, whether it’s recognizing when and where to rotate, judging if someone is going to whiff (very useful in a champ level like myself cuz we all still whiff a lot yet we can also nail great aerials) and also being where the ball is going to be. Of course other things I can’t think of

[@carwynh5520]

Hi thanovic you’re the person the inspired time to never give up in rocket leauge, I watched your tip videos and I used to be bronze 2, now im gold-platinum tysm for making tip videos for my favorite game! And also love the vids man 😄

[@Thanovic]

Thanks man! I’m glad the videos can help you out! All the best with your climb up the ranks!! ❤️

[@Hermes0023]

Fakes are the most satisfying goal. Change my mind. My favorite type of fake is when they are expecting an air dribble but you just sit behind they ball and watch them go out of position

Sad to see the series end! Love to see the amazing Content and always be able to go back to it!

[@matts5247]

100 hours on Kuxir pinch Imagine being able to 100+ mph the ball into the net from any wall ground or ceiling on field Think of all the applications if someone could get that good at it, you could snipe tiny little gaps or do a fake where everyone panics and ball that time instead is floating up in air lightly or maybe back board pass And think how many crazy angles and situations you could use it on like uou could take the ball back to your wall and then hike other team confusing starts to come in on attack next thing they know it’s teleporting over them or they see you take it up wall only to Kuxir ground pinch on the ceiling at right angle so that it just barely fits in as it comes straight down off the top back corner of ceiling. It would change the game completely and make aerials plays almost obsolete unless you’re just going up to take it to a surface. You could also send down nasty passes all the way to guy cheated up in their corner from your corner and he’d have plenty of time to get right touch It would totally change defense and require almost a weaving of players while rotating so there is never an opening other

[@matts5247]

The real question, is mastering it to that degree I speak of even possible? Like can you control the power and aim it to a meaningful degree ? Thinking about what the player Kuxir had his camera setting like now make sense lol if I recall they were like super zoomed in with weird height and angle where he could see the exact touch he was getting in these weird situations because literally like 0.001 controller deadzone difference could equate to like a cars width across entire field or something like that. I know I live using them for hitting ball up wall but where it comes out and hits ceiling and bangs down and then leaves a perfect floater up there but the distance and different angles and reads required to actual get a touch assuming you were close to it on def is like almost imoasible and of course everyone panics. And that’s with very general accuracy like so for me for clears and just generalized passing or plays when I’m f’d but I know if I can get to a wall that Whatever shitty situation I’m in will at least be put off for long enough bm for me to have a better chance at doing something meaningful, even if it just passes to one of their guys It’s kinda like a good emergency eject button to get the ball tf out of there even if it lands In middle of North Korea better than it being over before that. You’d be amazed at how far you could send the ball with like as much as speed as 20 boost from still gives you if you touch ball right. And like low plays or below reading this I would learn how to do basic power punches bc literally jsut waiting for other team to over commit thinking you are panicking only tor ball to basically teleport somewhere randomly behind them it’s too flashy but it’s basically a free for all as they all desperately flail at ball from theiir awkward angles rushing back and other teams or those low ranks just had to chill til they make a mistake and be ready to score when they panic and I bet ding that alone with nothing but the fundamentals, you’d get to like diamond pretty quick to where they can keep their cool and get the ball out from wherever it went like throwing a bouncy ball full speed around your living room and hoping to catch it lol But that’s when actually being able to it like I was rambling about at fi st would be sick. Like ACTUALLY aim t I don’t mean just like just a generalized direction, but like a controlled and calculated power, arch, speed, how it would respond to where it landed I’m sure to master would take a very very long time of just the most boring reps of the same thing unless you made some games like doing normal free play but everytime you get to ball you have ball to ad quick as possible while controlling it you have to take it to the very nearest wall or floor or ceiling and shoot via Kuxir pinch and just keep following up on those as best as possible and over Time id be certain in 100 hours of that and then impl me ting into actually game scenarios with solo q and with tm8s you on voice chat with etc I bet you’d literally create a whole new type of player “Do I wanna freestyle,,, ew bro naw. I’m a pinch guy:” *crazy 10+ surface touch per shot doing the new Kuxir teleport mechanic montage* note that console player litterally can’t see unless they happen to be in tame and ball hits them on way to its 10 destinations in which case depending on angle a quantum fluxation can be created where your rocket league skill is reduced by 90% and any accumulated info or muscle memory is swallowed up into the wormhole which whirs just out of reach ... and thank god my llama topper didn’t get sucked off becuase then I’d have t

[@DigitalJedi]

Preflips are one of these things that seem really niche until it's the thing your gameplay was missing all along. I can confidently say that I get at least one goal and one save out of preflipping each play session now that I'm somewhat comfortable with them. The shots are never the most powerful, but they don't have to be when the touch was unexpected and is hard to read from defense.
