Playing fast in Rocket League is one of the most important parts of the game. When you play faster, your opponents struggle to keep up, which gives you a HUGE advantage. But there's just one huge problem with it. When you actually try to improve this skill, everything else goes wrong.

This is my attempt at solving the "playing fast" issue in Rocket League. It's a struggle that everyone who has tried playing fast before has experienced. How can you play fast in Rocket League without playing worse overall? After some research, I had one trick up my sleave to achieve this... slow motion game speed. In theory, warming up in slow motion should help you be hyper aware of all of your individual movements and prep your mind into thinking as fast as possible by the time you switch back to normal speed and queue ranked. This is what I decided to test out over 6 days. Spoiler... it worked amazingly.

There is this thing called deliberate practice that musicians use a lot. you play your piece slow, like 50% speed and you play it at a very high degree of focus on and efficiency in movement of your hands. You would practice until its fully engrained in your brain, and only then do you turn up the metronome. this seems like the same concept. its certainly a good way to learn mechanics but i doubt it would have any effect on game sense and positioning, but i certainly will help with consistency.

This is absolutely true. You would rarely try to practice a new/difficult piece at the full intended speed until you've got to grips with the fundamentals first - after this vid it seems like a no brainer that practicing in RL like this can improve your mechanical precision and speed of decision making!

Speed is improved with accuracy, just like a musical instrument. You practice as slow as you need to to play the music without a mistake. You do this enough, the finger positioning and timing becomes muscle memory. Then you can 0lay it faster. You practice as slow as you need to to get the perfect touch every time. Then you can do it without thinking, which equals faster.

True, but if you always practice slow and try to be accurate, when comes the time to speed up, your fingers won’t be accustomed to the speed, and you may hit a wall. So it’s also important to practice speed without too much concern for accuracy, that way when you do gain accuracy, the speed is already there. Both slow/accurate and quick/sloppy are necessary exercises

@@remidmytryshyn8982 that practice also happens naturally in matches because you cant afford to be slow Take an air dribble for example When you practice the set up at the start, you roll it slowly towards the wall. You will rarely ever get the opportunity to do that above plat 3 - you have to do it quickly, and likely flip into the ball to get it to the wall. If you're doing a training pack, you will fly to the ball much slower than you would in a match because your one goal in training is to take the shot correctly (if you already know how you should take the shot) Of course you practice playing fast as well, I said it is like an instrument, not equal to an instrument.

I'd love to see this on a larger scale with a control group aswell. for example maybe find 10 GC1's and have them all do exactly 10 minutes warmup followed by 10 ranked games for a few weeks (maybe 15 days across a month, as it may be hard to find people who can 100% commit a few hours every single day to RL) and then have 5 do 100% speed warmups and the other 5 at a reduced speed. Also I'm curious, is there actual metrics for the "player speed" ? or are we just talking about the noticeable feeling that higher ranked players are faster, as I feel this video only showed that you personally felt faster after slowing the game down and that you played well, which doesn't actually answer whether you were in fact playing faster.

I tried this myself, and noticed that I was beating players a lot more than I usually do, even later on in my session. I am unsure if this is because of actually playing faster or if it was just confidence that I was playing faster than my opponents, meaning I did things without hesitation. Maybe it was something else entirely. Whatever the case, I saw results in my play, and if I hadn’t gotten two leavers in extremely winnable games (only down by one kinda games), I probably would’ve seen results in my rank (though, I did see a slight improvement in rank. Nothing that confirms anything about this warmup, though).

I believe people with a generally slower playstyle benefit more from having muscle memory and can build it up MUCH faster. Now naturally this slow mo routine would greatly help ANY player, but I'd recommend you really focus on learning skills and keenly watching out for opportunities to use these skills in real games. If you can build this patient playstyle you can be that demon that pops out right at your opponent's face in the moment they never expect. And be consistent, consistency is king for you.

I've always thought slow speed was the most overlooked tool KZbinrs rarely talk about. It helped me learn air dribbles, ground to air, air roll right, ceiling shots, and most recently even flip resets. It's not so great for helping me use it in-game though, but for actually learning a mech it's been wonderful.

Do the slow speed training, set it up in a 5 minute match, save the replay. Watch the replay, player view, on you, 200% speed. Just follow the game as best you can at high speed. Replay the game until you're able to follow without getting a headache. This trains your brain to operate at high speeds, when you go into a normal match, it will feel like everything is in slow motion. You will feel slow, but your reactions will be faster and more precise.

I want to thank you so much for this video. I’ve been stuck in Champion 2 since season 10 and I know that’s not a long time since it is only Season 11 when writing this but to me it felt like a long time. I felt faster than my opponents in some games but completely out classed in others and I was getting kinda tilted as I would get to Division 4 consistently but never won more than 1 game in it until I deranked back to Division 2. Then I found this video and tried the slow mo at 80% game speed for 20 minutes and going back to free play for 5 minutes after every game. Then today, the day I watched the video I had a few back and fourth games losing some and winning some until I had an 8 game win streak to finally break into Champion 3 for the first time after starting the day in Division 2 and I feel so much faster and consistent now, so thank you Wayton, thank you so much.

Very interesting concept. Lately I've been playing a lot better because I am being a lot more controlled, and everything I do has a reason behind it, which leads me to outplay my opponents. Doing this does make me seem faster but I think speed here is only the effect of the higher level of control, not the cause. I found others' comparisons with musical instruments very adequate, because starting slow helps you reeeally get the muscle memory and the basics down to the point where you can apply them more effectively and with more nuances later, which in-game makes you look faster as you're always on step ahead.

In the speedcubing community, a great way to practice is to go slow and consistent. Don’t try to turn the cube so fast that you’re barely even able to follow what you’re doing, and make steady turns. This helps with a thing called “look-ahead” which is just seeing what you’re gonna do next while you’re doing one thing. It’s past ally the same as what you did with playing in slow mo

There's actually a concept in learning that says for most skills you're trying to learn, you want to hit about a 15% error rate while you're learning. The times where you mess up are actually what sparks growth. Now I am into aim training and one of the easiest ways to alter your error rate when trying to aim is to adjust the speed of the targets up or down to try and get into that zone of 15%-ish error rate. Rocket League is mechanically very difficult. By playing at a slower speed, its possible that your error rate was altered to be in this Goldilocks zone where the brain learns fastest and lead to improvement at a faster level than would otherwise be achieved with a higher rate of errors. I'd be interested to see if there's a correlation between rank and optimal training speed. I think its possible that the lower ranked you are, the slower the game speed you need to hit that error threshold and its why very high level players don't see much benefit from it. They're already so good at the game that 100% speed is likely above the threshold. You see this in aim training too where the best aimers end up playing training scenarios that are way, way harder than any in game situation ever could be. So I also wonder if very high level players might tip into actually finding that they improve faster mechanically on a higher speed that actually challenges them and causes errors. Great video! A lot to think about and very interesting stuff.

i would of also tried the faster training, in my mind i would assume that if you are used to the fast pace you would feel like you had way more time to think about your play and control your car accordingly . If you want more mechanical plays i think faster might be better cause your brain will be able to process each play with "more time" but that would have to be experimented on. I have actually tried this tactic on other games that require speed and it helps a lot, also don't know if its true but the reason why you play 'better' after a slow training session is because you just feel like your playing faster even though its probably the same speed. This feeling makes you want to react quicker and then allows you apply to your game.

You're on the right path, as are many of the comments I see below. There's an art to learning how to implement both under-speed and over-speed practice (yes, that's useful too, at the right time and in the right way) to improve your rate of learning, refine and solidify your muscle memory, and increase your observation/processing speed in game, but done properly, it's hugely effective. The only top player I see who seems to have a decent grasp of how to do it is Zen, and even he has only really scratched the surface. If pros were practicing correctly for at least an hour or two a day, the skill ceiling would be getting pushed much higher much more quickly than it is now.

This makes sense, when you start learning an instrument you also have to start so slow you almost get bored, you have to be 100% comfortable to play accurate. With time you get faster automatically since muscle memory becomes more fluent and you have to concentrate less besides some hard sections. Now that I think about it. Trying to learn mechanics in RL with 100% speed is kinda inefficient, because you mess up way more until you get better and even then you might develope bad habits that won't come up when playing so slow you get it 100% down. You also would need to slowly ramp up the speed so you won't get overwhelmed jumping to 100% speed again.

This is the same principle which makes sensitivity randomizers a beneficial tool for training in FPS games. The forced active engagement of your brain tends to force a "higher level of play" for a period of time in which the active engagement continues, and there's a sweetspot where you can mix comfort with the level of change required to maintain engagement where you can perform possibly even within 90+% of your normal peak play. The "active mental engagement" is also how you rewire your brain to improve baseline mechanical play, as at some point you will eventually slip back into autopilot even with a sensitivity randomizer present unless you significantly adjust the randomization behavior. It took me 2-3 weeks, for example.

Before they gave the option to slow game speed, I realized while watching replays at 200% normal speed felt slow for 30 seconds ds

Learning music uses the same principle. If there's a section that is hard to get, you slow it down and practice it until you get it perfect at that tempo. Then, you repeat the same thing, but a few BPM higher. Repeat this until you reach the written tempo. Otherwise, you'll compensate the part and play it close, but never correct.

Win rate is a stat that goes up as you go up. But it also works against you as everyone else's win rate at that level is the same, ergo, eventually they cancel out and it plateaus.

Nice video! So should you warm up at 75% or 90%? Or is it preference? 👀

It's also great for low level players. Learning how to keep the ball on top of your car at a slower speed helps see how a slight adjustment, such as tapping the gas(mhhhm) or braking (oof) helps or hurts you. Helps keep on the balls shadow. Also will help with directional air roll and see what each adjustment does. I like 85% it's slow, but not 50% slow😂

the speed issue i struggle with is, just being able to climb up to a high aerial off the ground. i might be closer to the ball and i might double jump sooner than the other player but they still beat me to a potential 50 or aerial.

In motorsports we refer to this as "Slow is fast" to preach doing things correctly is more important than doing them quickly, the speed will come as you consistently execute accurately. Kinda like measure twice, cut once.

For anyone wondering, this works for any skill. Work at a slower pace perfecting the craft/skill. Over time the muscle memory will kick in and speed will come naturally.

I found that I had a better intuition on reading the balls flight path after doing a half hour warm up in a custom boomer mode, small ball to present an accuracy trainer, high speed ball physics to make me think faster than I’m used to, and slightly higher gravity to train chips and double touches a little easier, after doing this for a week I went from gold 2 in ones to plat 2,

U should add a kind of control group to these types of vids. Like 1 week normal warmup and ranked, 1 week with experiment. There’s nothing to compare it to so these results could easily be normal for u. Interesting vid nonetheless!

The day I started treating 2s and 3s like 1s, but keeping tm8s in mind.. i sky rocketed. (only talking about the way I challenge when its my turn in rotation) I almost ALWAYS fake challenge atleast once but usually 3 to 4 times in a smaller amount of time. and on the time that i choose to challenge i try to make sure its right when they cant see what im doing. or, when they're out of the play for just a second.

all of this of course without just allowing the ball back to our side every time. I try to work myself into the play smoothly and without any "hey its my turn" type of movements that people seem to do. Its like all people want is to 50/50. when you could go sooner and outplay the opponent. dont chase, right? Dont just hit the ball to hit it. But if you can make more intentional touches than your opponent atleast one or two of them will be an outplay aslong as you have decent timing in tandem with the actions theyre taking.

Its very similar to piano and all that where you start learning slow and if you can do it slow you can learn to do it fast. I teach parkour and for flips and literally anything this is how we teach, do it slow and then you can do it fast good video :D

As a fairly high level geometry dash player, just getting into rocket league now, I can say that, we use speed hacks, or slow motion, all the time when we practice levels, just so we can understand the layout of the level with the final goal in mind being completing it at full speed, sort of like this, but for rocket league scenarios.
