When I was like 12 years old, my football(murrican football) coach made me do 10 push-ups after I CAUGHT the ball. And it was because as soon as I caught it, I just went to the back of the line instead of running down field. Changed my life. When doing training packs in rocket league, you should be just as focused on landing and continuing the play as you are trying to take the shot or defend the net or whatever. I believe this is why so many people suck at recoveries. Because they aren't doing it in their training packs. They never had to do the pushups and learn the lesson lol.
^ This. there are so many players that rather shoot the ball sideways into the wall or just pop it just because they have to touch the ball, rather then leave it for someone who has better angle or is already going for the shot...
One thing I’ve been trying to work on is Explosiveness. Being able to take the ball from a slow roll to supersonic, while keeping it close, has help me in so many ways. Great for counter attacks and your first touch👍🏼
I don't feel like this game can "get stale", in the same way that basketball, hockey, etc won't get stale as long as you're being challenged and working on yourself to improve and compete. As someone who's aged out of physical sports, the presence of a true e-sport like this is a welcome outlet
The emphasis on 1s cannot be understated. I went from G3/P1 to D1 in 2s by focusing on 1s and finished S7 at D1 (848). 1s is endlessly frustrating, since your win or loss is entirely of your own doing, but with 2s it's well worth it.
1s almost made me jump out my own window, also have many holes in my walls cos of this. 😬 im stuck around p2 in 1s but on another account i was having very close games in D1/D2
@@mbdidit you can’t play 1v1 and care about your rank while you’re trying to improve, you’re gonna lose a lot but you will improve much more from losing than you will from winning
@@bailey29 Yeah you definitely cannot care about your 1s rank. I'm S3/G1 in 1s simply because I do have a tendency to rage quit. Doesn't help that I also run into tons of players in ranked 1s, even down where I am, with Plat and Diamond level tournament winner titles or Plat or Diamond season awards. And plenty of smurfs as well.
@@brandishwar thing is those plat and diamond rewards could be from 2s or 3s where they might’ve got carried, also 2s/3s is much easier than 1s so most people have a higher rank, i’m G3 in 1s but P2-3 in 2s and D1 in 3s.
One thing I learned when trying to rank up: Take care of the other stuff first. This game is a mirror to how you are performing in the other aspects of your life. If you are putting something off, ignoring something, not eating well, exercising, or sleeping well it will all reflect in your gameplay. I've personally lost 10 games in a row, dropped an entire rank and swore I was done with the game. I have been putting off something for a long time and when I finally finished it and went back to the game, I won it all back and then some. Find the balance.
I'm playing with my 2 irl friends most times. Usually it feels like solo q since one is chasing ball and cutting rotations and second is hunting for clips. I am the sane one that learned how to def and pass so those two chimps can try and shoot from weird angles and also I am quite good (for my rank) with long shots. We are low champs after 2 years of playing but we usually point out our mistakes to each other
Sup man! I related so hard to this since I play with my 2 brothers irl. I've taken the game more competitively than them, in wanting to learn the game inside out. Would be down to run some duos with a like minded player like you. Champ in duos and solo 😁
This needs to be seen. In this boat right now, I’ve been playing around with my deadzone for over a month and until recently, when I found the right setting, my ball and car control on the ground especially was horrendous. I am C1 for reference and deadzone alone has contributed to many losses due to misplaying the ball because my car would turn too slow or too fast relative to what I thought it would do. Found a pretty good setting and immediately went on a win streak in every single mode including 1s.
I bumped my sensitivities last month and wish I'd done it last year. Immediately became more agile on the field. Still dialing in the settings, but definitely do not have them at default.
@@markmurphy9121 it’ll vary person to person. I tried using my favorite streamers settings and it made me exponentially worse on the ground, so just keep that in mind
@@markmurphy9121 I would say start at 1.5 or 2.0 and go up or down from there. Your aerial sensitivity does NOT need to be the same as steering. Increase the sensitivity if movement feels sluggish, decrease if it's too hard to control. Practice new settings in free play for a bit before heading into a match, but a match will definitely give you a good idea of what direction to adjust things. Bear in mind as well that your skill will probably suffer a little after you make your adjustments, and this could just be a sign that you need to get used to them as opposed to needing to pull them back.
for tip 2 it is a slippery slope of having an okay amount of mechanics for the rank you are in since I am in a spot where I do not have a lot of options for things to do when attacking simply because I have no mechanics but having even some would make the rank I'm in far easier since my attacks would have far more pressure( I am c3 currently). Partly the reason for my no mechanics is lack of play time and the other part is I never train them which is a bad habit since improving is difficult
@@beric0bartman you don’t really need high level mechs until gc, he must have lots of gamesense instead of this, he might also have basic mechanics that allow to to save the ball (as you were saying).
Actually it does not. By now there are a lot of methods to create motion trackings in seconds. Yes Back in time it took ages indeed. Nowadays it’s not that time consuming anymore. Which makes Editors less valuable. Same thing in the music business. There is literally AI which makes music for you. Notes, Chrods, Arps just anything. Thing gettin far more easier
The day before you posted this I said I’m quitting rocket league haven been at c2d4 for the past 2 seasons and can’t get any higher. After listening to you at 6:13 I’ve started to do that now and found joy in the game again. Thank you!
thats what i saw after my 300 hours of game time, I try to learn air dribbling (more flying behind the ball without airroll) but maybe i am able to use it once in a match and 80% it doesn't help us getting a goal, maybe a pass. so i focus myself on things that i use more often during a match like half flips, better and accurate shots, going for a ball I can handle and a good defense cause the most of my tm8 are goallovers, never came back to defend so I have to do it for them. it's very stressful sometimes and on top I have to take their toxicity if I can't repair their mistakes.
Would love to see some pro tips on recoveries - I've adopted some stuff like boosting back down to the ground and always landing on wheels and drifting, but I'm sure there a ton of neat things to talk about!
It's good to have some friends that are better than you so you can learn from them/play against people who are better than you. But when there's nothing more to learn from them(usually because you lack basic skills), they become a limiting factor. Also you may get bad habits for relying too much on their playstyle. So, only play with friends to have fun with them, but play alone to improve.
Since day 1 ive used air roll right. Ring training maps and everything. I have air roll binded also but i use it mostly for recoveries and when i need to take a awkward angle shot. But i do wish i would have learned left instead of regular becuase then i would have total control both directions
I think rocket league should add some permanent challenges for people to grind out. Sorta like how cod has camos rocket league could have challenges for certain decals or wheels so there is some status in what ur car is or goal explosion rather than who’s spent the most money. But theyll obviously never do that because they’d lose money…
Personally this advice is actually probably good for me, I normally do duos with my friend who has always been around 1 or 2 divisions above me, meaning I would rely on him a lot if I mess up, so I will take this advice.
As someone who has put most of my time into training highlevel mechanics (probably 70 to 80% of my 1.5ish k hours into freeplay/workshops and the rest in ones) I can honestly say this game seems to never get stale. For me to rank up its all about playing smarter and working on shooting, but every game even when i am getting mopped is still very fun. It is hard to get tilted when you are able to clip at any moment, although when you miss simple powershots because youve got 5 hours into aimtrainer vs 300 into dribble challenge it can sting a little lol. Or when you go to watch a replay and realize the guy who just beat you has terrible camera settings and rarely takes ballcam off it can be a little frustrating. But in my opinion mech takes much more time to learn so id rather have tons of hours into that so while ranking up i only really need to work on simple less demanding things like positioning and shooting (even if I dont lol) I will also say idk why but my recoveries have always been very good even tho i dont intentionally train them very often, I think I just watch too much forky and it rubbed off on me
i honestly did tip 6 just by my own from watching evample and seeing everything hes able to do and actually works in ranked as makes the game more fun as well.
been a 1s main since i was gold learned ARR in diamond solo qd since i was plat and spent most time learning useful mechanics and sitting now in gc2 with about 1k hours (started january 2021)
If you didn’t work on shooting and recovery early on then what did you work on? Aren’t those 2 of the main, most common things to practice early? There’s not much else you could practice
Only recently started watching where on the ball other players are touching. My habit is to just glaze over and see where the ball is going after the touch. But as games start to get faster at higher ranks you really have to see where they are touching the ball to get there before someone else touches. It isn't hard to do, just tiring.
Im d1 and 3 things im practicing are flip resets, fast aerials and defense and though idc what people say stop learning cool things they are actually helping lot
Went from gold to high plat in a few months, took a long break and then came back, grinded some and got to diamond 3. Hoping to hit champ soon but some of my opponents are crazy lol Edit: Really happy to hear about the air roll tip. I was a little annoyed with myself cuz I never could learn how to properly air roll constantly while doing aerials, but with that tip that they aren't always necessary and only really necessary for adjusting your angle, it makes me realize I'm actually sort of ahead of the game because I've only been air rolling when I need to. Interesting !!
Biggest tip (personnal point of view) LOSING IS OKAY ITS CALLED EXPERIENCE IF U WANNA RANK UP, WARM UP FOR 30', THEN GO RANKED, 1 LOSE U KEEP GOING, 2 IN A ROW GO BACK TO CASUAL, BAD DAYS HAPPENS
Hi Thanovic, I'm C2, and I originally got here with both DAR's and no NAR. The huge disadvantage was I didn't have a convenient powerslide button, and my recoveries sucked. I spent the last 100 hours learning NAR, and got rid of DAR-L and improved DAR-R. The only thing I really miss from not having DAR-L now is jumping off walls in certain positions.. Anyways, I agree having all options available would be ideal, but do you think trying to rebind controls after so many hours (1.4k) is worth it? Getting back to the same mech skill would take a long time. For context I have NAR + slide on LB, DAR-R on RB, jump on A, boost on X. If I were to switch, I'd use appjack's settings.. I think he has the perfect controller settings but switching to them.. man it sounds so painful haha
I wanted to ask that long ago. I loved your x hours on mechanics Maybe 100 hours on soothing than recovering can be great If u can bring a guest here and there to explain what to do and why even better😊
I play with normal air roll on l1 and air roll right r1 but i only use that to make a half flip. Is it True you have such more control of you use both air rolls? Like left and right? So yes? When do you use air roll left or right and When normal? I hope someone can help me
Nice i have a similar history but im still in champ. Id just say that is for rank8ng up but i would kinda reather be champ with cracked mechanics freestyiling and having fun than just tryharding and getting gc. Altho teamplay is better there... imma just keep doing and after some hour it will happen probably😂 im not in a rush
hello thanovic i have come across a teaching method for air roll i have notice that no one is showing that method in their videos teaching how to air roll. last night i teached my d1 friend how to air roll and how to go towards de direction wanted. he didnt have any experience before and he learned to go where ever he wants with air roll i would really like to come in touch with you to show you this awesome method cause like i said its not shown anywhere.
hey! i want to know if my settings are good boost: Rb air roll: lb power slide: lb Air roll right: b Air roll left: x Please let me know if theese settings are good
Idk if anyone needs to hear this, but you CAN do it. I went from gold 2 to champ 1 in about a season and a half, because i really wanted it. So you can too
HELP PLEASE IDK WHAT TO DO ANYMORE: I CAN'T bind normal air roll i've been playing for 3 years now and i was never able to bind it...not even on the keyboard, i mean i bind but it doens't work! I use left/right air roll since i started playing. Even if i "unbind" everything and try to bind air roll in any button, IT DOES NOT WORK...i've been trying to find a solution but i never could :(
Idk why but when I started playing the game I just went straight through to gold silver was nothing and plat was a little bump in the road but now I'm really hard hard stuck diamond 3 I cannot get out of it I've been here for the past 4 seasons haha nothing works I feel like I need a solid tm8 or 2 cuz solo q is a nightmare you cannot go on a win streak unless you're in a tank you shlouldnt be at it's impossible
I disagree with the thing where everyone says you don’t need advanced mechanics to rank up. Like yes, it is possible to get to ranks like grand champ without being able to flip reset if you focus on the basics like solid touches, shooting, and recoveries. If you solely care about ranking up then to each their own, but I think taking that “shortcut” approach is going to limit you in the long run. I’ve been doing all the flashy stuff so long now, that I genuinely feel like it has made me better understand the game overall, and still put me ahead of others in my rank who can’t do as much flashy stuff either. And look at the pros. There aren’t any “up and coming” positional players. They are all borderline freestylers. Take for example Daniel, Joyo, Seikoo etc. Some are even saying positional players are phasing out in RLCS, and while I don’t necessarily agree with this, I think it’s something to keep in mind. And one last thing, for those truly looking to be great at the game, you make a name for yourself by being like squishy or evample, absolutely nuts in a way not seen before. While it’s true rocket league has no shortage of talented players these days, I think most people’s experience grinding to become the best they can is just going to be so much more fun if they can improve in a creative way, rather than just grinding out the basic stuff.
I started to play RL 2-3 months ago with my nephew. He’s D1-D2 so I play against a lot of plats and diamonds in duos. I’m starting to hold my own with those guys. Been practicing shooting, goal tending, and aerials which helps big time. I still have no idea on how to dribble on the ground so aerial dribbling isn’t a thought right now. That’s been pretty frustrating 😂
you shouldnt focus on aerial dribbling XD. its hard to manage the boost and its not that much better than good old ground dribbles. hook shots should be enough for plat
Hey man we’ve all been there. For me it took a year before I woke up and everything clicked so just take all the time you need. But for the record I’m Champ and still don’t understand dribbling very well but it’s because I focused on being a solid keeper and passer to set up my teammates for goals. Simply focus on whatever position makes you feel comfortable right now
@@justinreckers161 nah you dont have to keep the Ball on your car. Its a great mechanic but in 3s and 2s its not as effective as in 1s. As i said try to bounce dribble and try improving your hook shots
I dream of someday being competent enough at this game to make it stale and repetitive 😂 it’s very exciting being a week in and feeling things slowly begin to click…enough to occasionally make the car and ball do what I am screaming at it to do in my mind 😂

^ This. there are so many players that rather shoot the ball sideways into the wall or just pop it just because they have to touch the ball, rather then leave it for someone who has better angle or is already going for the shot...
And not every hit has to be a flip.

I'd like to use air roll left and right but I use normal I am c3 and have to many hours to learn new air roll
Great video. I hope you have a great day my friend.
what’s the difference between air roll left nd right, compared to normal air rolls?? i don’t really notice a difference
how do you train to recover? just freeplay or casual matches?
Do u think free airroll is necessary? I wanna take it off and start learning both directionals instead?
Biggest tip (personnal point of view)
LOSING IS OKAY
ITS CALLED EXPERIENCE
IF U WANNA RANK UP, WARM UP FOR 30', THEN GO RANKED, 1 LOSE U KEEP GOING, 2 IN A ROW GO BACK TO CASUAL, BAD DAYS HAPPENS
WNice tutorialch version do you use to get all the setup and polyphonic softs?
5:56 JESUS CHWISTH WHAT THAT NOISE IS
What button do you have the air roll sets at?
Hi Thanovic,
I'm C2, and I originally got here with both DAR's and no NAR. The huge disadvantage was I didn't have a convenient powerslide button, and my recoveries sucked. I spent the last 100 hours learning NAR, and got rid of DAR-L and improved DAR-R. The only thing I really miss from not having DAR-L now is jumping off walls in certain positions.. Anyways, I agree having all options available would be ideal, but do you think trying to rebind controls after so many hours (1.4k) is worth it? Getting back to the same mech skill would take a long time.
For context I have NAR + slide on LB, DAR-R on RB, jump on A, boost on X. If I were to switch, I'd use appjack's settings.. I think he has the perfect controller settings but switching to them.. man it sounds so painful haha
I wanted to ask that long ago. I loved your x hours on mechanics
Maybe 100 hours on soothing than recovering can be great
If u can bring a guest here and there to explain what to do and why even better😊
I play with normal air roll on l1 and air roll right r1 but i only use that to make a half flip. Is it True you have such more control of you use both air rolls? Like left and right? So yes? When do you use air roll left or right and When normal? I hope someone can help me
Nice i have a similar history but im still in champ. Id just say that is for rank8ng up but i would kinda reather be champ with cracked mechanics freestyiling and having fun than just tryharding and getting gc. Altho teamplay is better there... imma just keep doing and after some hour it will happen probably😂 im not in a rush
hello thanovic i have come across a teaching method for air roll i have notice that no one is showing that method in their videos teaching how to air roll. last night i teached my d1 friend how to air roll and how to go towards de direction wanted. he didnt have any experience before and he learned to go where ever he wants with air roll i would really like to come in touch with you to show you this awesome method cause like i said its not shown anywhere.
i have also sent you an email about it
I mean not focusing a lot more on mechanics still works out for you as a content creator with the 100 hours series :)
hey! i want to know if my settings are good
boost: Rb
air roll: lb
power slide: lb
Air roll right: b
Air roll left: x
Please let me know if theese settings are good
Idk if anyone needs to hear this, but you CAN do it. I went from gold 2 to champ 1 in about a season and a half, because i really wanted it. So you can too
I have only solo queued to c2/3. Never reaching GC. Kinda burned out as I have been here for 3 seasons now .
Do you have merch? I love you
HELP PLEASE IDK WHAT TO DO ANYMORE:
I CAN'T bind normal air roll i've been playing for 3 years now and i was never able to bind it...not even on the keyboard, i mean i bind but it doens't work!
I use left/right air roll since i started playing. Even if i "unbind" everything and try to bind air roll in any button, IT DOES NOT WORK...i've been trying to find a solution but i never could :(
What’s the blue and black decal?
I have solo queued mostly my whole time playing rocket league all the way from bronze to champ
"but thanovic us epic games players cant play workshop maps" so with that being said what do you recommend as a custom training map?
W vid my boy
Idk why but when I started playing the game I just went straight through to gold silver was nothing and plat was a little bump in the road but now I'm really hard hard stuck diamond 3 I cannot get out of it I've been here for the past 4 seasons haha nothing works I feel like I need a solid tm8 or 2 cuz solo q is a nightmare you cannot go on a win streak unless you're in a tank you shlouldnt be at it's impossible
I don't have enough keybinds to put a directional airroll
im d3 and i play better solo queing but when i play with my champ irl friend we play well, but still lose most games, what do i do??
Is it good that I already do these?
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agreed, your friends will hold you back if they aren’t devoted as you. My buddies don’t warm up AT ALL. No free play/training packs
Please do the 100 hours of recoveries video
editing is crazy
I disagree with the thing where everyone says you don’t need advanced mechanics to rank up. Like yes, it is possible to get to ranks like grand champ without being able to flip reset if you focus on the basics like solid touches, shooting, and recoveries. If you solely care about ranking up then to each their own, but I think taking that “shortcut” approach is going to limit you in the long run. I’ve been doing all the flashy stuff so long now, that I genuinely feel like it has made me better understand the game overall, and still put me ahead of others in my rank who can’t do as much flashy stuff either. And look at the pros. There aren’t any “up and coming” positional players. They are all borderline freestylers. Take for example Daniel, Joyo, Seikoo etc. Some are even saying positional players are phasing out in RLCS, and while I don’t necessarily agree with this, I think it’s something to keep in mind. And one last thing, for those truly looking to be great at the game, you make a name for yourself by being like squishy or evample, absolutely nuts in a way not seen before. While it’s true rocket league has no shortage of talented players these days, I think most people’s experience grinding to become the best they can is just going to be so much more fun if they can improve in a creative way, rather than just grinding out the basic stuff.
I started to play RL 2-3 months ago with my nephew. He’s D1-D2 so I play against a lot of plats and diamonds in duos. I’m starting to hold my own with those guys. Been practicing shooting, goal tending, and aerials which helps big time. I still have no idea on how to dribble on the ground so aerial dribbling isn’t a thought right now. That’s been pretty frustrating 😂
you shouldnt focus on aerial dribbling XD. its hard to manage the boost and its not that much better than good old ground dribbles. hook shots should be enough for plat
@@Mikail_199 Yeah. It's frustrating learning how to keep that ball above your car. I guess it is a gradual thing that comes with time and practice :(
Hey man we’ve all been there. For me it took a year before I woke up and everything clicked so just take all the time you need. But for the record I’m Champ and still don’t understand dribbling very well but it’s because I focused on being a solid keeper and passer to set up my teammates for goals. Simply focus on whatever position makes you feel comfortable right now
@@justinreckers161 nah you dont have to keep the Ball on your car. Its a great mechanic but in 3s and 2s its not as effective as in 1s. As i said try to bounce dribble and try improving your hook shots
@@Mikail_199 Thank you for the advise! I greatly appreciate it :)
I dream of someday being competent enough at this game to make it stale and repetitive 😂 it’s very exciting being a week in and feeling things slowly begin to click…enough to occasionally make the car and ball do what I am screaming at it to do in my mind 😂
man the memories when you said prospect, good times.
great video!❤️
I’m already gc2 but thank you very much for all the tips🫠
just have fun
Im a solo main and the best way to get goos is having fun so thats what you need to do
Whats the decal called at 1:59
any tips while ranking down? :(
