[@Garmoo5600]

As long as you are actually trying to improve and don't get salty and afk after every goal scored against you, you're fine.

[@mrgoatbeard]

All very good valid points...definitely noticed and started working the fly through the ball and to be more patient instead of going for the middle field aerials every time. Good stuff man like the pointers.

[@marinezombie9271]

Funnny when you were talking about only going for free centers, I learned this quickly when I queued up ranked with my champ buddy, and I’m a gold, there was no center I could hit 😂 and I ended up being scared of the ball

[@EelsTyrant]

I’m scared of the ball against silvers my guy lol rocket league is a horror game

[@peacemaker4829]

Everytime I'm patient when the ball is in the corner my opponent puts a great shot on net. I'm barely a D1 amd this is consistent. The one thing I've learned is that you never flip in your corner. You can commit to it as long as you knkw you're teammate is sticking back post, but never over commit or slam the ball into the wall (soft touches are your best friend). Your teammate can roll through whenever you are rotating back post, or when the ball gets put into a dangerous position, but it is always your job to rotate to back post as soon as your teammate is going, unless you know for a fact your teammate has it, and if your solo queuing then you just assume they don't have it and rotate back post (if you're low rank)

[@jbone6979]

All decent advice but I have to say that the patient part isn’t working for you because you probably creep out of net. Be patient from behind the goal line, not in front of it. Maybe watch your replays and even make yourself a training pack to practice saving those tight angles when they shoot. Another tip on top of that, unbind boost and try doing it.

[@peacemaker4829]

@@jbone6979 But if my teammate is already back post then where else would I be other than to get in position to challenge or up in their face challenging, or rotating back post myself because i got out of position while challenging or messed up my challenge and now the net is open for a shot. I have a buddy I always play with and I think he's a little too stuck on sticking back post because I can never get him off of it, even when I'm rotating back post. It causes confusion because he NEVER commits to the corner. I don't necessarily think that's the right answer. It doesn't matter who is covering back post as long as somebody is, and then the other person should most definitely be challenging. Regardless someone should ALWAYS be challenging. What's the point in giving the other team space? Not all players are bad, and one thing I've learned is that you should treat all opponents like they know what they are doing (at least at my level).

[@jbone6979]

@@peacemaker4829 Ultimately, the game is situational and without seeing a replay, this might not be the help you need in certain situations. Some situations may require corner challenges. But get in your net behind the goal line closer to front post. You more than likely don’t need to close space in the corner like you think you do. You need to cover your net and cover the back wall/corner passes (and doomsy dishes from the smurfs) Tell your buddy to do the same and stop leap frogging him. Awful habit that completely screws your team more times than not. Start getting on the back wall too if the ball is already or about to be higher. On your way back to goal, tell him before you get there that he needs to cover the front post spot so you can take his back post spot. If you guys are just sitting there and waiting for more than a second, you’re most likely getting back too quick, probably with less boost than you could have because you’re well, back too quick instead of getting small/big boosts. Wider turns coming back and arriving at your goal right before it could potentially be shot is key. Getting there beforehand just to be “fast” will screw you over causing that type of confusion I assume you’re talking about. Giving opponents less space is good, but doing things like this to create space for you is just as good. If you do this correctly, you’re going to see a ton of full field wide open net opportunities.

[@peacemaker4829]

@@jbone6979 That sounds like some pretty valid advice. Thank you, and I'll keep that in mind

[@SiphraWoW]

Just double flip reset, musty, pancake double touch every shot... you will do ok 😊

[@HeezyfoCheesy]

Don’t forget to speed flip every second in between those and youre golden

[@jossip22]

When I have space and get the ball on top of my car or keep it in front of me to ground dribble and my teammate either bumps into me, takes the ball infront or even from the top of my car I just dont wanna play anymore I'll gladly forfeit Ik I'm toxic but I cant play with a player as braindead as that

[@AlightBULLDOG]

I've been practicing air dribbles for the past week or so since I seen your video teaching a plat. I'm not great but since practicing that I've noticed my ball control and judgement going for balls in the air have improved significantly. I'd say in the next few months I'll probably make diamond.

[@StrawHatLuffy65]

Yo this actually made me rank up :) Thank you so much!

[@stanxx7693]

Yeah i played d3 in 3s. There was champ tournament winner. I said to him that your rotation was so bad, committing all the ball even when he have to be on goal. But when i did it, i make us win that game. Because rotations and saves. Diamonds and champs they really need to play 1s. To become more confident on defence. And that same dude blame me because i lost kickoff and he miss really easy shot because committing on attack and didnt stay near post wait for the shot :D

[@ROCKETZOMBIE77]

One thing I really could use help for is figuring out the best controls and camera settings for me, since I play on Xbox.

[@Irevoltnow]

I'm Diamond in 2s and almost in 3s as well. I still haven't noticed how are half flip kick-offs any better than just driving to the ball. I just drive to the ball and I can say my kick-off results are above average. Speed flips are of course hard to go against but they are pretty rare in those levels.

[@AI_support]

I used to feel this way and learning flip quick offs took some time but wow it makes a huge difference once you start doing it properly

[@T1Oracle]

I see people flipping all crazy and I usually beat them anyway. Some I can't, but then I just time my front flip and get them anyway or I go for the second touch.

[@EndEffector]

I've noticed the same. I just assume that I'm not doing the flips properly.

tough to make a tips video for c3-ssl with the current state of ranked... I see more gc's in champ this season than ever before. Also, hard when every time I get scored on my tm8 gives up or leaves which is interesting. I will say I've been on EU coming from US and I never experienced my tm8s leaving as frequently back on US.

[@mrwhiffie588]

I swear I'm that crazy person I enjoy solo que, I enjoy the challenge of trying to carry, I try to bring positivity into my games. Probably from years of toxic kids on league of legends

[@mike_nelson]

Ego associated with looking good mechanically is the biggest ball and chain for most players. I find that most players aren't into nor watch or play team sports. Their vision is limited to what they can pull off singularly. The passing, the oppositions positioning as well as their own team mates, both sides of boost management and looking ahead a few seconds is missing from a lot of players, even higher up the ranks. But because the majority share this same flaw, many players can grind up to Champ at least with fast mechanics as they come up against similar minded opponents. But if someone is constantly blaming their team mates, then its likely because they rely on mechanics and their team mates cleaning up their mistakes. That's how I see it in my experience.

[@princetbz1102]

I do , I think I can't get to plat because of my aerial ability that also sucks in real life.

[@EelsTyrant]

[@nickoteen5462]

Part of it is also tons of champs in diamond and tons of GCs in champ.

[@J-racks]

@SpookLuke I just had a brain-blast because of this video. Currently D3. I think mechanics are a must, because each rank introduces new things you haven’t defended against. I’m sure gcbootcamp has some iteration of this but pretty much there is a check list of things you *should* know by a rank and if you don’t know those things, you most likely rank down. It’s proven true so far on my RL journey, as I wave dash my way to supersonic legend (not happening)

[@vyrizu9713]

game sense is deff more important, you dont need flip resets and ceiling shots or crazy flicks to reach gc

[@J-racks]

@@vyrizu9713 well of course, I was just saying if you don’t know how to air dribble, you most likely won’t make it out of diamond. If you don’t know how to ground dribble, you won’t make it out of plat, etc

[@vyrizu9713]

@@J-racks diamond you dont really need at dribbles, just go rotations and increased speed, with a decent shot, plat you can literally rotate back post and bang the ball down field and its gg, you dont really need mechs like that till about champ when players are smarter

​@@J-racksidk, i hit champ a year and a half ago and never knew how to ground dribble drive with the ball on my car but i def knew how to air dribble lol I can now ofc but every player has strengths and weaknesses. Find mechs you like and spam them to get ez dubs
