How To Play Against ANY Playstyle In Rocket League

[@syndicategaming1668]

The most annoying thing is inconsistent opponents. They always keep missing, until I finally decide to go for a challenge

[@cirelx9772]

Just let them do their thing and wait it out lmao unless it’s dangerous

Play slightly more defensive and when they miss just plow it in their goal.

Yep, I don't know when they'll hit the ball. When they miss, I don't go for it. When they hit it, I go for it. Then they're gonna say "StOp DouBle ComMittiNg".

[@guitarJK1988]

I have more issues with the teammates, per example: The Goalie. Gives away the midfield and never has the save because he gets overrun. Usually gets toxic or leaves because they blame the teammate that does pressure for creating a 2v1 and are in denial of how bad their saves are. The Double Committer. Usually booms every ball , chases every ball into the corner and never plays the last man position. If you dribble he will even clear it away, often leaving your team without boost and an open net. The Delusional Mechanical "God". Goes up for every ball, uses all his boost so he never has any left to recover and spams "take the shot" when ever he misses (which is everytime) to act like it was a pass and not that he missed.

[@gruhnd9711]

Big thing for playstyle 4 against the mechanics: Because this is very regular in gc and above, a big tip is to play the opponent and not the ball. So if he is going for an airdribble or a dribble, challenge him early, but don't go for the ball, go for the bump/kill on the opponent. This causes the opponent to lose control on the ball and the teammate behind you can pick it up for easy possession

[@Midaspl]

About the mechanical-side style of players, I find it best to just keep it cool, conserve your boost, play passive, make a save and then just counter-attack. All those aerial tricks and stuff puts them often way out of position. Especially in 1s and 2s. So far, I've met only one player that it didn't work out and he was unranked in 1s in diamond 2, so I assume he was like high GC/SSL recalibrating after not playing 1s for some time.

[@jakecooper5514]

In 3s you have to force them tho. Usually they're doing it just to put the ball past you, so their 2 other teammates can finish up

[@Flawlesslaughter]

The interesting mind game is knowing when a player or team will adapt or not adapt to something. Like you said beating an adapting team by changing your playstyle is like level 1, but for an adapter player they'd know that you might not continue you to be aggressive and be aggressive themselves to predict your change. Obviously im simplifying it but i think it would come down to overall experience in playing, where a pro would feel like hes living in your head rent free haha. Though I'm taking this from playing fighting games rather than RL as im pretty new to RL. It's just interesting to see the parallels. But you also have to master a lot of things before you can play in that mindset!

Your insane I’ve just come over from apex and already feel myself improving by following your tips

[@thecakeredux]

Against people who mix it up a lot, I like to focus on aerial plays and play a little bit of banger ball and trust that I am faster. If most of the possession is open and both teams have to attack the ball, there isn't much room for unpredictability to enter their plays and that enables me to rely less on reading their plays and more on my own plans.

[@mikechiu392]

Thanks for your content, I’m new to RL and your videos help

[@Rexcalibar]

Honestly, I usually come across teammates that are hard to work around than opponents. Which ends up making it hard to work around opponents.

[@bobaj2003]

With method 2 you could always drive up around the goal and jump back down for the save with the extra flip you’ll have (which is a bit harder for lower ranks but still lol)

[@SharkBeret]

Although it’s evident in my videos that I love demoing (which is a good playstyle), I actually try to be an adaptive payer when taking it seriously. No, I’m not SSL, Or even GC, but I’m in diamond, mostly because I haven’t set aside the time to practice hard mechanics.

4:20 so if they chase you into the goal and don't miss, their teamate just has an open net and a free goal??? The point of this was to not get demoed and save the ball not to both get demoed and not save the goal

[@Reaper-qo8tn]

i dont think you know how hard it is to predict that turn sometimes, and you dont just use only that one method, you mix all 3 up, so that they can't read it. they have a free goal when you choose the wrong one.

My favourite thing to do when someone chases me for a demo, is just to start trying to demo their tm8 at the same time. Makes a big conga line of bumbs

[@raccoonbiceps9613]

An experienced demoer playstyle is the hardest to play against. You don't need a demo, they will usually try to dodge so what you need to do is just brake before the demo to fake it, and then after they jump. You can start dribbling them awaay or get a bump on them afterwards because you faked the demo, thus killing their momentum.

[@ROCKforeverFPS]

I feel completely identified with the adapter playstyle, fun fact you just said you find em on GC and actually I am a GC, I play like that because of there's no other way to get out of champs, specially on C3... sometimes you get chasers, others people that pass the ball when no needed, full time defenders etc... and all that you can do is ADAPT to they're damn kind of play and fix their mistakes

At the 8:18 mark you say to “play the ball high” which is what I used to think too, but I was recently watching a pro (I forget who, maybe flakes?) and he said to play the ball low because that way if the opponent fakes (like they’re going for a flip reset or something) then you have that covered, so you’re basically forcing them to get the ball over you which usually will force them to go too high to be able to score?
