There’s a lot of factors you have to consider. 1) Some of these guys might be their rank so fast because they got carried there 2) They could’ve gotten coached as opposed to the others who have pure play hours 3) A lot of players just play for fun with absolutely no agenda and reached their (low) rank with so many hours just because. And 4) some of these guys might be smurfing I’m not knocking if you actually have that little hours and achieved a high rank then kudos to you. Hope to see you all at SSL some day.

@@sparkeo there isn’t 1 tip that works.. everybody has strengths and weaknesses in their playstyle.

First game really shows how much you can be affected by your first impression.

Sincerely, the plat guy has definitely more than 50 hours, probably a has a second account with many more hours at about the same rank. I'm currently between D3 and C1 and learned how to wavedash, speedflip, basic air dribble, etc at around 100 hours or less. Sure, but the game sense starts to improve only at around 200 hours or more (currently at 268 hours) . It is definitely possible that he can do all that rather simple mechanical stuff but to have a game sense like that in 50 hours? No shot, not a chance. in 50 hours of gameplay you still ram that ball like a bull when you see it in front of you. We've all been there, let's not hide it. Good thing that he doesn't start shooting the ball with the corner of the car and speedflipping on that field within those 50 hours. :)

I’m just now realizing how wierd it is for me to have the game since 2016 and only have like 100 hours in it

[@kuro758]

same species but such individual differences, it's crazy

[@KingPaimonSorceror]

It makes perfect sense that people with less hours would possibly beat the players at same level with more hours.. better at gaming, naturals at this game.. naturally smart at the games.. whatever the case. It makes sense

[@Krishavgandhi]

Rn im at 44 hours and im at plat 2, then I see this video and GamersRdy says that it takes 500-800 hours. HUUUUUUGE ego boost right there. Keep up the good work Striped ;)

[@Lucwhan]

I feel like that champ with more hours is not at champ level, anyways good video

[@eleanorstanleyb]

Hey striped, after seeing this video, I wanted to say, I hit diamond 1 div 2 the other day, with 85hrs, and, after watching this video, I’m impressed with myself.

[@noone5539]

Thats incredibly good

[@ad4lat]

U defo have no mechs but still nice

[@sunvol4503]

It took me 360 hours to get to platinum. You'd think with so much experience you'd be able to spot a Smurf

[@Djgdj237]

Striped: ...And Shaq has... (pulls out calculator) 3800 more hours than Malek

[@trains2487]

i'm at plat with 15 hours of matches and 50 hours of game time. practice rings map, speed flips, and other random stuff. still getting better

[@exinji]

it baffles me that people with 2.5k hours are still in champ while im chilling in ssl freestyling with 2.5k hours the difference is just so big sometimes

[@AnonymZ.]

The fact some people have spent straight 100’s days is mind boggling

[@Boost_Addict20]

The diamond game just shows how some people are just stuck carrying their teammates 😂 honestly diamond 3 has been awful for teammates I have to be on point to win games

[@monkfish3537]

Honestly, i think some of these people lied about their ranks and hours. I have 200 hours and i am diamond 1 but the champ players looked lower than my rank, they were not playing like actual champs do and showed that they are clearly not as good as they say. Good vid tho striped!

[@Blackbird1928]

I spent over 100 hours playing against bots before I even touched online play. I have young when the game released, seeing my first Arial in ranked blew my mind 😂

[@LeBronyaJames]

I have 2000 combined hours (from PS4 to PS5 then PC). C2 in 3s, C3 in 2s, not ranked in 1s., C3 Rumble. I was concerned that I’m not GC1 yet but if it took 4000 to get it, I’m now hopeful to get it in 3000-4500. I solo-queued GC tournaments and won 3. My ultimate goal is to get SSL (hopefully a pro) in under 10,000 hours. My main practice is playing ranked and freeplay while queuing. The best practice is to play the game as much as possible

[@big_guy6507]

If these guys are champs then I'm a pro in disguise, chilling in p1

[@capitalcharmxl]

i feel like the majority of these ppl didn’t start playing ranked until 200-300 hours played. whereas someone like me who only played ranked hit C2 in 500 hours. so it’s all relative

[@loukendioS]

to be fair playing in higher ranked lobbies straight away does help you rank up so so fast. i started playing in plat 2 ish lobbies right when i started ranked and im p3 with 50 or 60 hours

[@profpez2357]

I made diamond 2 this season so far and only started playing in Jan. I have about 150 hours in game. I'm a bit obsessive so my hours have been spent wisely trying new things, including binds, settings and training packs. I guess the mentality to try your best to get better keeps one motivated.

[@aloetragedy1568]

i've been playing since 2016 with over 1000 hours and my highest rank ever was diamond 3 in 2021. lol

[@profpez2357]

@@aloetragedy1568 I just made diamond 3 recently.. I'm a bit afraid to play more ranked as my casual games have been going really poorly lately.. Slumping a bit

[@duck323]

@@aloetragedy1568 i just made it to champ last week. In 2v2 but still i think it is quite an accomplishment. I never knew how many hours i had until i checked. I was actually surprised with how little time it took me to reach champ. I also took a 9-12 month break at around free to play s3.

[@hardcorejumpengaming8493]

I got to D1 my first season on this game. Got demoted to plat 1. Now I'm a little over 400 hours and I'm back to D1 but, I still feel out of place. While my game sense was good. I would freeze up when I saw a new mechanic. My goal is to hit Champ 1 before I get to 1000 hours.

[@Za_Ray]

I hit plat 1 at 30 hours and now at 60 i am plat 2-3 And to be honest, I don't know why haha, to me its just the experiences i make that make me improve, like reading fakes, trying to aerial, MISSING, improving aerials, actually hitting them, playing some workshop maps like the aim training one and so on I mean if you dont try to hit aerials or good shots then you cant get better at them right? Also I have some gc and ssl friends that in my first 10 hours introduced me to some very helpful mechanics like halfflip, boostcontrol etc which made me understand the game much faster Watching rlcs helps a lot too i think I think my gamesense is rly okayish, also speedflips in my elo dont mean that much of an advantage right now, since u can e.g. at kickoff kinda see where the enemy drive and just need to react properly to it Trainingspacks help a lot too at understanding physics, especially the crazy goalie ones where it just feels satisfying to save a hard shot

[@russellhan3534]

Foxxy doing half flips, wavedashes @ 50 hours? i call bull.

[@syedmuhammadmehdi9588]

how do I tell how much hours I got? The thing in the stats say I have played for 1 day and 11 hours but I'm plat 2 div 3

[@itzHaze]

above dimiond you can do almost all shots, so its the point where consistance matters more than skill someone like low hours dimiond can prolly do all the shots as the lot hours dimiond but just isnt confident

750 hours playing rocket league, 10000 hours watching RLCS highlights

That plat could definitely beat the diamond in the video

[@Nightwalker55]

I just can’t rank up everything I do do I just can’t

[@jimjimson1360]

Fun Fact: The 50 hour plat was a smurf. The 1500 hour plat was a gold 2 who got lucky placement matches.

[@grizzyliveonmc6638]

I’m plat 3 with 23 and a half hours (almost), is that good?

[@itzHaze]

The Less hours GC has lesser hours than the More hours Plat

[@gelatoza736]

Go back to school, that sentence didnt make much sense

[@charlottewalker-jolley3865]

as a diamond 2, i think ive played about 300-400 hours if that, but its my game sense that gets me places not my mechanics

[@joshyii_val4782]

80 hours in diamond makes me feel special lol

[@jasonconrad9910]

I have like 40 hours played in rocket league. Everyone tells me I'm cracked or thinks it's a smurf account. I would love to be in a video!!
