@@Lombzi oh, it's you. I remember you being pretty much a Champ. I guess you are one of the crazy looking Diamonds. Maybe you should make a return to one of these Diamonds vs X rank videos
It's because many people got demoted from champ and grand champ and are like chilling in d3-c3 lobbies a lot. To add on to that, most diamond are actually getting way better, but are unable to rank up because of silly mistakes, and like crazy opponents. That being said, diamonds can rank up if they just analyze their mistakes, and improve.
Dalvin expecting his teammate to go for a ball he 100% should have already challenged is such a great example of rocketleague lol. People gotta look at their own gameplay more, your teammates may suck, but so do you haha. Great vid,
Yeah and also Dalvin kept passing the ball to the other team or just losing the ball, putting pressure on Krimp when Krimp was low boost and now being forced to do very difficult saves. I think iirc the first 3 goals were Dalvin's fault. Funny how the worse a player is the more they blame their teammate. RocketLeague is such an easy game to misjudge.
@@greatbriton8425 not that the score tells the whole story but i did notice that toxic players in my lobby are always at the bottom of the scoreboard, most of the time by a decent margin
My favorite is when they use all their boost to lob a terrible pass in front of the opponent's goal. You recognize your opponents are going to easily counter attack in a 1v2, so you play good defensive position... while your teammate spams take the shot as they flop around with no boost in the opponent's goal.

I swear like 90% of diamonds only practice mechanics. They cant defend or rotate, but then they will suddenly start flip resetting. You have to be good all round to rank up, stop just grinding offensive mechs.
Not only do they only grind offensive mechs, they grind the mechs that require heavily committing and then they don’t even bother practicing recoveries
I’m diamond and as soon as I see someone air dribbling or flip resetting I know I’m going to win the game. The only people who can do it and are still in our rank have zero game sense and are easy to outplay.
@@AmnctIn this game you can't 2v1 above a certain level so someone might actually have good air mechs and rotation but won't be winning every game if his mate is indeed making basic mistakes , that shi happens a lot, my peak is champ and in casual I do run into SSLs sometimes (usually GCs tho) and his mate was afk, we clapped that SSL like 4:0 until he left with like 3 min left from the match , so 2 champ can 2v1 an average SSL these days that is why you will see actual good players be stuck in even dia cause you just can't 2v1 2 similar but slightly worse player
True, I am gc 2 and am absolutely terrible with mechanics, there for sure are plats with better mechanics than me, I just focus on what's really important
thats just embarrassing that plats think they deserve 2 ranks higher than they actually are, im between dia 1 and dia 2 and ive been playing for 300 hours only, and i definitely dont think i deserve champ at all yet.... plats actually think sooooo good about themselves its insane
12:07 ive never felt so heard in my life. C2 is the hardest rank to pass, i feel as there is so many people that have zero mechanics and if they do have mechs they just chase/ over commit. i dont know if i deserve gc but i would atleast like to have some gc teamates to see if i can keep up. i truly dont know what to improve to get past this rank. love the video.
Most champs are usually right in thinking they don’t belong in their rank, purely because no champ game is alike and if someone outside the ranks watched games at random, they would either think they were watching a bronze match or an ssl match lol
When i was hs plat and when i got to d1 i ran through the ranks (for me diamond was easier than plat for some reason) and now im washed gc cuz i didnt play for over a year
I mean he used to be a grand champ and stopped playing then thought he deserved to get back to that rank. This game been out for 9 years so some people quit for awhile and come back expecting to be at the same rank they were
Coming into this video a few days late but after 5 minutes in, I'm more confident than ever that my idea to speak about defense of mid-ranked players is not only good, but a must at this point. As a Champ 2 who claws his way through solo-Q, the No.1 reason I (we) lose games, is due to defense or the lack of quality defensive mechanics. For some reason, when the ball is going towards the other net, everyone is a mechanical genius but the moment it's from their own backboard or corner, they fail faster than a drug test at Burning Man. P.s., not sure what your schedule looks like but would you be into having a chat sometime to share with me some of your experience and perspective on these types of experiments you've ran? It would be really cool to pick your brain to and have someone with a little more authority on the matter speak truth to some of these players looking for guidance.
There needs to be a rank in between champ and diamond.The skill ceiling there is so out of balance you either get a teammate that can triple flip reset across the map or a teammate that cant even hit the ball and then blames you.Your opponents either have the best coms you ever seen or are double committing every play.Making it out of diamond was hell its so weird,my friends been diamond for years,to many people stuck in it.
Yes, and this went even worse when they did that big mmr drop some seasons ago. It's even worse on all the "special" game modes. You can see what ever at what ever level, so games are really interesting.
@@ObsessionTheCat Yea thats why I don’t really play them when i play heatseaker or hoops I either go against the most insane players in that game mode or people who have 2 hours in the game it’s weird.
@@D3ADYYYThat's not how ranking works. Even if they added some imaginary rank title between them, it's based on the MMR, the numbers. They'll still be in the same place overall. It's all based on win loss ratio, not mechanics...
Except for the guy triple resetting across the map can only hit in 1 in 20 tries and leaves an open net the other 19 times. This is one reason why you see crazy mechanics in lower ranks. So many players have decent mechanics, then the most horrid positioning you've ever seen.
Nah, those 2 plats deserve plat. At most you could say diamond 1, but that's it. I peaked at Champ 1 a few months ago when I was still grinding daily and champs are something else. There's no way these 2 guys thought they deserved champ🥴
this is a good video but somethting to mention is that if one of the ppl that think they deserve smthn is worse then the other and the other one that thinks they deserve it is better that might be not right cuz the good one might actual deserve it.
I mean, just because he hit GC doesnt mean he is. Like I also go from C2 to GC1, its hell, you sometimes go against - lets say questionable - players and sometimes against people who feel like they are smurfing from GC3. It makes no sense.
@Khaizen10 If you look at the chart in RLtracker his rank skyrocketed from 1198 to 1450 and then fell back down to champ 2, he most likely got boosted since he hasn't been able to reach GC since. Imo consistent GC's would beat the c2s in the video majority of the times, the problem is Redsnapper drops out of GC consistently and is stuck in mid-high champ. CBell should choose GC1's who are always in GC1 not dropping in and out depending how well they play, just my two cents no offense to anyone who participated🤷
Here is the thing: so many diamond and champion players are practicing advanced mechanics and are very good with the ball, but then they don't know how to play as a team, how to defense, how to position themselves, then then gonna be the ones asking for forfeits after 0-1 or 0-2 and blaming their teammates the most.
When you want to see if someone deserves a rank you should have 3 champs and a diamond. Even if one of them does deserve champ he's still at a disadvantage if his teammate doesn't. Because it would be 2 champs vs 1 champ and a diamond.
@@DJ-ehhsorry to say bro but you need to try and shake the long list of excuses. No champ 1 is losing any games in plat 2, no matter what teammate they get. You’ll enjoy the game more if you find a healthier mentality.
@@CBellRL no i genuinely meant to say generally, because i didn't want to call them stupid all of the time they made good decisions but most of the time not. so i chose to say generally
I was Diamond 1 at tournaments but after the season 16 season rank reset I got reset to Gold 1 division 3 at tournaments... Does anyone know why this happened?
Hey can you guys help with something When you’re hardstuck C3 for actual months and hundreds of games What are you supposed to do? I still feel myself improving yet the rank doesn’t reflect that Obviously there isn’t near enough information to tell why but I just wanna know what I can do to stop this cycle of up and down in C3
I’m plat 1 and I can’t get out of it because my teamates suck, and when I have a teamate who can at least save a shot we win and my mechs and game sense is very good
I haven't played this game in forever. I peaked at like the bottom end of Champ, and I know for a fact that things have only gotten crazier since I left. I used to be D3, but I know for a fact I'm like mid-plat now. That's the rank i truly deserve.
I think the reason the gcs beat the ssls this year and last is because the people who say they are ssls have likely hard peaked for a day or two and never again, which means that for the most part they are probably only on average 100mmr above the gc2s. Combine this with the nerves and the results are not too surprising. Now I may be wrong on this but by seeing the “ssls” mechs and comparing them to my own ssl mechs I think this is a fair assumption 🎄
What about a series about the opposite concept? A diamond who thinks he lucked into the rank and is really in gold and have them play golds to see if they're right?
I definitely deserve champ 1 or even 2 since I have really good game sense for me as a diamond 2. I’m not as mechanical but I make up for that with my game sense
Cbell. Im really passionate about this. 95% of players only practice mechs. So yes, diamonds have mechs of champ but not speed and consistency (or general game sense) Yes, gc2s have mechs of ssl's. I also feel like its a lose lose situation for the higher ranks
Been sitting in D2 Div 2 after a 2 year hiatus after relocating for work getting married and having a daughter but when I stopped I was I think Champ 3 Div 3 and man lately it’s been tough getting back there
i play leo all the time in my lobbies, dude is cracked for sure and def deserves ssl, had him on my team a few times and we’ve won i think every time i had him, when he plays on the other team he beats me not every time but over half
Dearest Cbell i believe i always get the worst teamates and have to carry every time. If my teamates could just be a little bit better and a bit of game sense so we cam actually win thanks
I've been hardstuck C2 for about 2-3 years now and I'm steadily getting better and more mechanical but with my job can't put in the hours to train. I don't deserve GC but I could help with a future video defending the champ title if you want!!!!
Bro trust, when I tell u plat was the most difficult rank to get out off i mean business. It was the most time I was stuck in a rank ever. Diamond was also a challenge but i ran through it, spent there like quarter the time i spent in plat. Champ i stayed there for a bit id say the same time i have been on diamond or I could say more by a bit, and now last season thanks to getting a friend I made it to gc 1, but im telling rn if it wasn’t for my friend that helped a little I wouldn’t be gc it would take longer ofc. But now surely if i play id be back again champ. Still pretty cool hitting gc.
Can u do a newer of a rank vs an retired of a rank like a champ that Jo’s hit champ vs a person who quit the game champ and comes back and can I be in it
Sad I missed out on being in this one. I’ve been c2-c3 for a year now but I’ve played in gc lobbies with my homies and have always played pretty well. Maybe next year I’ll get a shot to prove it😈
I’m champ 1 haven’t played as much recently but my peak is champ 2 div 4! I would say I’m pretty humble with average mechs but my game sense is what gets me as high as I am, I belong in GC1 it would be fun to give it a go! Happy holidays C bell
You're really impressed with the lower rank's mechanics, but they rarely do anything with them. Doesn't matter if you can ceiling shot flip reset, when your final touch is just slow, predictable, easily saved, and results in a 2v1 counter attack, while you sit with zero boost behind the play. Also, consistency is a huge factor. Who cares if you can hit some crazy, mechanical shot 1 in 9 times, when the other 9 times results in an easy goal for the other team.

P.s., not sure what your schedule looks like but would you be into having a chat sometime to share with me some of your experience and perspective on these types of experiments you've ran? It would be really cool to pick your brain to and have someone with a little more authority on the matter speak truth to some of these players looking for guidance.
There needs to be a rank in between champ and diamond.The skill ceiling there is so out of balance you either get a teammate that can triple flip reset across the map or a teammate that cant even hit the ball and then blames you.Your opponents either have the best coms you ever seen or are double committing every play.Making it out of diamond was hell its so weird,my friends been diamond for years,to many people stuck in it.
Yes, and this went even worse when they did that big mmr drop some seasons ago. It's even worse on all the "special" game modes. You can see what ever at what ever level, so games are really interesting.
@@ObsessionTheCat Yea thats why I don’t really play them when i play heatseaker or hoops I either go against the most insane players in that game mode or people who have 2 hours in the game it’s weird.
@@D3ADYYYThat's not how ranking works. Even if they added some imaginary rank title between them, it's based on the MMR, the numbers. They'll still be in the same place overall. It's all based on win loss ratio, not mechanics...
I guess this game is like football, not everyone can be a Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo. Which means that many people will never be SSL.
Except for the guy triple resetting across the map can only hit in 1 in 20 tries and leaves an open net the other 19 times. This is one reason why you see crazy mechanics in lower ranks. So many players have decent mechanics, then the most horrid positioning you've ever seen.
8:36 "Uouohhh, they are toxic, i like that" got me
😅😂
being toxic and ultimately lost 1-3 is embarassing lol
Nah, those 2 plats deserve plat. At most you could say diamond 1, but that's it. I peaked at Champ 1 a few months ago when I was still grinding daily and champs are something else. There's no way these 2 guys thought they deserved champ🥴
On god especially Krimpi no way he thinks he deserves champ
As a consistent high D3-C1, I 100% agree with you 🤣
@@Jacszy06that dalvin kid is ass too, idk why he was talking lmfaoooo they’re both right where they belong
bro "taking advantage of RedSnapper" as an achievement is devious
this is a good video but somethting to mention is that if one of the ppl that think they deserve smthn is worse then the other and the other one that thinks they deserve it is better that might be not right cuz the good one might actual deserve it.
15:03 wasn’t a backflip on accident lol I was trying to redirect it back to my teammate lol. Thanks for having me on! 😂🙏
Jesus loves you all.
Well done u played well
Haha yea I was confused how he thought that was accidental, I saw what you were tryna do. You guys were killing it at the start of that match!
@@ahetzel9054 thanks bro! I got a little nervous and started doing some dumb stuff but don’t we all
D NUGS WOOOO
As a fellow grand champ, I do not claim redsnapper as one of us
Lmao I was so tilted during that game but I solo queued to gc in the nomad sooooooo
I agree
@@RedSnapperr”achievement unlocked take advantage of red snapper” - that one there was a violation personally I wouldent have that
@ yeah I saw it 💀
I finally hit Gc 1 at the end of this past season, i agree with CBell, c2-c3 has the most inconsistent teammates out there.
Nuggs literally has a gc title from last season 💀
I mean, just because he hit GC doesnt mean he is. Like I also go from C2 to GC1, its hell, you sometimes go against - lets say questionable - players and sometimes against people who feel like they are smurfing from GC3. It makes no sense.
@@DavidCyclesGC title last season means he won at least 10 matches in GC last season
@Khaizen10 Yeah, 2 months ago. Then he dropped
@@ste2586_ still, winning 10 matches at in GC means you’re probably as good as a GC
@Khaizen10 If you look at the chart in RLtracker his rank skyrocketed from 1198 to 1450 and then fell back down to champ 2, he most likely got boosted since he hasn't been able to reach GC since.
Imo consistent GC's would beat the c2s in the video majority of the times, the problem is Redsnapper drops out of GC consistently and is stuck in mid-high champ.
CBell should choose GC1's who are always in GC1 not dropping in and out depending how well they play, just my two cents no offense to anyone who participated🤷
I forgot about this now I’m so excited it’s back
me nd u played together, i saved the replayyyyy
I don’t remember but yeah that sounds like me. I’m a baller like that
@@CBellRLfr
Thanks for having me on! Was a fun time 😁
Which rank were you?
@@Your_best_nightmare19.99 The defending Champ in the first game
@@zippykitty4447 👍
0:18 that explains a lot
Here is the thing: so many diamond and champion players are practicing advanced mechanics and are very good with the ball, but then they don't know how to play as a team, how to defense, how to position themselves, then then gonna be the ones asking for forfeits after 0-1 or 0-2 and blaming their teammates the most.
I am the diamond for these “he thinks he deserves this rank”, I won’t disappoint.
When you want to see if someone deserves a rank you should have 3 champs and a diamond. Even if one of them does deserve champ he's still at a disadvantage if his teammate doesn't. Because it would be 2 champs vs 1 champ and a diamond.
Yeah true good point
I think someone has done a similar video idea before
DalvinJomar got into the naughty list of Santa
Yes I’m sorry for that I was really mad about my ping - Dalvin Jomar
@@DJ-ehhsorry to say bro but you need to try and shake the long list of excuses. No champ 1 is losing any games in plat 2, no matter what teammate they get. You’ll enjoy the game more if you find a healthier mentality.
@@DJ-ehh you are completely trash at the game bro, uninstall you have no hope
@@NicholasAltman-d4h like who is you bro 😭
@@NicholasAltman-d4h why are you even talking 😭
the first two diamonds are just generally stupid and have no ground control. they are struggling with even driving the car where they want it to.
Fr, they probably open freeplay and go for a flipreset instead of training packs to train basic mechs
Are they generally stupid or genuinely ?
@@CBellRL gottem
@@CBellRL dont think homie will even understand this but you got em 💀
@@CBellRL no i genuinely meant to say generally, because i didn't want to call them stupid all of the time
they made good decisions but most of the time not. so i chose to say generally
6:00 You know what else is massive?
I thought that too 😭🙏
Looowwwww
I was Diamond 1 at tournaments but after the season 16 season rank reset I got reset to Gold 1 division 3 at tournaments... Does anyone know why this happened?
6:01 you KNOW WHAT ELSE IS MASSIVE
THE LOW...
TAPER FADEEE
11:55 D Nuggs was gc!
Right? Useless matchup
That was last season it is season 17
as a higher ranked player i deserve bronze
Hey can you guys help with something
When you’re hardstuck C3 for actual months and hundreds of games
What are you supposed to do? I still feel myself improving yet the rank doesn’t reflect that
Obviously there isn’t near enough information to tell why but I just wanna know what I can do to stop this cycle of up and down in C3
Does the heart controller have trigger stopps
I’m plat 1 and I can’t get out of it because my teamates suck, and when I have a teamate who can at least save a shot we win and my mechs and game sense is very good
If you were good enough to be in diamond you would be in it all the diamonds had bad teammates but their in diamond your just not good enough
@ I am I carry teamates all the time
I’m a plat also and I’m stuck but my mechs are alright I’m able to speed flip and flip reset like once every day
@@Albert-w9m8p nice
13:32 d nuggs got gc title so he isnt really champ
i got a s2 and s3 gc title yet im still back in champ. We get older and our reaction time goes down
Feels like every level is full of good and bad players, you really have to stand out to change ranks
C v GC was the MOST Diamond gameplay I've ever seen LMAO
I haven't played this game in forever. I peaked at like the bottom end of Champ, and I know for a fact that things have only gotten crazier since I left.
I used to be D3, but I know for a fact I'm like mid-plat now. That's the rank i truly deserve.
6:03 and you know what else is massive?

THE LLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW TAPER FAAAAADE
no way that kenki guy is diamond. you got people lying out here just to get in your videos
He was dogshit with everything except wall plays. To me looks like a diamond with alot of hours in training.
He might be. He had good mechs, but not to god gamesense
He looks like diamond
The only difference between the Diamond and champ player in the first game was defense doesn't that say something 🤔
I’m C1 and I think I deserve D2. Wish there was a video of people who don’t think they deserve their rank for the opposite reason
I think the reason the gcs beat the ssls this year and last is because the people who say they are ssls have likely hard peaked for a day or two and never again, which means that for the most part they are probably only on average 100mmr above the gc2s. Combine this with the nerves and the results are not too surprising.
Now I may be wrong on this but by seeing the “ssls” mechs and comparing them to my own ssl mechs I think this is a fair assumption
🎄
this video completely proves my point that the rl ranked system after that change a few years ago absolutely ruined it.
I’m hard stuck silver 3 and honestly my the amount of times my teammates whiff is crazy. I think I should be around gold 2
Cbell I have a nice idea for a video, 3 professional players with NO communication vs 3 SSLs in a vc.
The skill ceiling definitely grew this year especially.
Plats thinking they deserve Champ is diabolical work.
What about a series about the opposite concept? A diamond who thinks he lucked into the rank and is really in gold and have them play golds to see if they're right?
10:34 leo wants a ps 4 controller and an iphone case and emex just wants a new pc monitor
dalvin talking so much just to be ahh, im dead lol
I definitely deserve champ 1 or even 2 since I have really good game sense for me as a diamond 2. I’m not as mechanical but I make up for that with my game sense
Cbell. Im really passionate about this. 95% of players only practice mechs. So yes, diamonds have mechs of champ but not speed and consistency (or general game sense) Yes, gc2s have mechs of ssl's. I also feel like its a lose lose situation for the higher ranks
Its literally just that. People just prefer practicing mechs
Been sitting in D2 Div 2 after a 2 year hiatus after relocating for work getting married and having a daughter but when I stopped I was I think Champ 3 Div 3 and man lately it’s been tough getting back there
Bro d snuggs literally had a season 16 grand champ
i play leo all the time in my lobbies, dude is cracked for sure and def deserves ssl, had him on my team a few times and we’ve won i think every time i had him, when he plays on the other team he beats me not every time but over half
Dearest Cbell i believe i always get the worst teamates and have to carry every time. If my teamates could just be a little bit better and a bit of game sense so we cam actually win thanks
Weird. I always think I deserve a lower rank. Sometimes I wouldn't mind that. People get so sweaty and tense as you go up in the ranks.
I've been hardstuck C2 for about 2-3 years now and I'm steadily getting better and more mechanical but with my job can't put in the hours to train. I don't deserve GC but I could help with a future video defending the champ title if you want!!!!
Love to see plats get humbled hard
I haven't seen Cbell in 2 years
Bro trust, when I tell u plat was the most difficult rank to get out off i mean business. It was the most time I was stuck in a rank ever. Diamond was also a challenge but i ran through it, spent there like quarter the time i spent in plat. Champ i stayed there for a bit id say the same time i have been on diamond or I could say more by a bit, and now last season thanks to getting a friend I made it to gc 1, but im telling rn if it wasn’t for my friend that helped a little I wouldn’t be gc it would take longer ofc. But now surely if i play id be back again champ. Still pretty cool hitting gc.
i’m Gold in 2s and i think i deserve Diamond,cause these Diamonds are so bad and my tm8 just sells me. and i beat my diamond friends a lot.
6:04 you know what else is massive?😼
bro, did u say "massive"? 6:02
To be fair Dalvin was respectful about it
Im 1304 mmr... i thinkni deserve 1305. If I dont get it, i might steal christmas
As an unranked player, I think I should be unranked as I have only played 1 game of rocket league ever.
Can u do a newer of a rank vs an retired of a rank like a champ that Jo’s hit champ vs a person who quit the game champ and comes back and can I be in it
The toaster is real af, bro just tryna make some toast
The thing separating ranks is consistency.
Champs with Grand Champs title's?

Sad I missed out on being in this one. I’ve been c2-c3 for a year now but I’ve played in gc lobbies with my homies and have always played pretty well. Maybe next year I’ll get a shot to prove it😈
What did u get him????
i just wanna get to diamond again, fighting out of play in 3s solo is a true test of patience
1:11 CBELL COUCH REVEAL 🤯
I’m champ 1 haven’t played as much recently but my peak is champ 2 div 4! I would say I’m pretty humble with average mechs but my game sense is what gets me as high as I am, I belong in GC1 it would be fun to give it a go! Happy holidays C bell
You're really impressed with the lower rank's mechanics, but they rarely do anything with them. Doesn't matter if you can ceiling shot flip reset, when your final touch is just slow, predictable, easily saved, and results in a 2v1 counter attack, while you sit with zero boost behind the play. Also, consistency is a huge factor. Who cares if you can hit some crazy, mechanical shot 1 in 9 times, when the other 9 times results in an easy goal for the other team.
