diamond is the best rank…

[@dyno_o]

As a diamond, i would like to say that we have all improved over time and because of this, we are all still stuck in diamond. A year ago half of us couldn't speed flip, and now every kickoff you see is a speed flip Edit: Thanks for the likes guys I just hit champ! 🥳🎉 So now in every rank challenge video i don't have to compare myself to the bad diamonds lol

[@HE4VEN_EDITZ]

Thank you, they need to stop underestimating us😭

[@DJay2031]

I finally reached champ after a whole year of hardstuck D3, and I can actually confirm. All of us knows how to speed flip, and most even know how to air dribble consistently

[@dylansikorski8951]

I have been playing this game since 2016, I have never hit champ but I can hit quad resets, speed kickoffs, double mustys, and I try everything to get to champ with a peak of diamond 3 div 4 a few seasons ago.

[@FaitalityYT]

As a diamond I would like to say that many people who are higher in ranks underestimate diamonds. The only reason most of them are stuck there is because we are either 1: all improving at the same rate. 2: Very mechanical and going for to many unnecessary shots or 3: Ball chasing so much that everybody has a 50% to win because of obnoxious chasing or people being patient. This is only my opinion of course because I myself am one of the mechanical players that gets tilted to much because of ball chasing.

[@kennyoffhenny]

Almost always 3. Just people fighting for corner passes to the center the time game. Honestly gets so boring because that’s literally all everyone does now & you usually can’t do much about it because the other team challenges/50s every single possession you get…. or your teammate decides to race you to the ball whenever you get room for a controlled possession 🤦‍♂️

[@pyrosius8896]

To be fair, this is the newest Gen to Rocket League so expect many people to be down a rank type or 2. Like for example, even around gold to platinum can you find people who've won Diamond championships, they're air dribbling, hitting ceiling shots, flip resetting, wave dashing, the whole shebang. So it was kind of expected that some Diamonds may be higher in other ranks, while being diamond in 1.

[@CHA0S.V1]

This is why I’ve been a hard stuck diamond for the past year and a half

Diamond 3 is by FAR!!!! The most inconsistent rank in the game. 1 game you’ll play and your opponents are literal bronzes then the next game your opponents are RLCS champs

[@COOOOOW]

4:39 That transition was kinda clean ngl

[@lenzVisser]

As a previously cocky hardstuck diamond 3, I have learned that when diamonds say: I can speedflip, airdribble and flip reset. they are no where consistent/ optimized enough to make good use of it. they lack recovery, game sense, reliabilty and outplayability. if diamonds just wait in net when some other diamond tries flipresetting, the ball most of the times just bounces slowly towards their net causing an immidiate counter attack.

[@lenzVisser]

I have to say, they are learning and once they learn those required skills they are miles ahead of other c1-2-3 player who have not learned those mechanics. I myself once i finally broke through the c1 barrier cruised all the way to gc2 in half a year.

[@Mako-jm6cf]

Dear Musty Team, --- Thank you for all the hard work you put into maintaining and improving Rocket League content. The game continues to be a source of great enjoyment for many players, including myself. However, I wanted to share some concerns about the current ranking system. As a Diamond-ranked player, I've noticed that despite having access to tools like RL Tracker, there are still instances where players are uncertain about their ranks. This often leads to matches where players of significantly different skill levels are placed together, which can be frustrating and diminish the competitive experience. For example, it's not uncommon to encounter players who appear to belong in lower ranks within Diamond matches. This situation creates an imbalance and can be unfair to those who have worked hard to achieve and maintain their rank. It would be beneficial if the ranking system could be fine-tuned to more accurately reflect players' skills and ensure more balanced matchmaking. I believe that enhancing the ranking algorithms and providing more frequent updates to player ranks could greatly improve the fairness and enjoyment of the game for everyone. Thank you for considering this feedback. I appreciate your dedication to making Rocket League the best it can be. Sincerely, A Concerned Diamond Player ---

I find diamond now a lot of us can flip reset, speed flip and all of that but that’s because it looks cool and is hard. It’s like when trickshotting or doing tricks in any game you want to learn it because of the hardness of it. There’s always “flip resets don’t get u to champ etc” but in saying that, it would then be easier to climb ranks once you learn more basics since already knowing the harder stuff
