Thanks for watching! P.S. To all the people angrily commenting: "shadow defense is good in champ!" "flip resets are good at SSL!" "dribbling is good at plat!" Yes, I agree. The problem is this is a TIER LIST. I can't list dribbling 7x at EVERY rank. My point: This list is just one option you have. I made it because it makes sense to me, and I think it will help provide you with some sense of direction in an otherwise complicated game. All tier lists are wrong, but some are useful. Use this list, if you find it useful. TLDR: TRAIN WHATEVER YOU WANT TO TRAIN. These are only my recommendations. KEYWORD: recommendations. Have fun Twitter commenters. (:
Shadow defense is very relevant in platinum spook. Can't count how many times that people have been scored on because their back is turned to the ball and have no aerial car control to save/ dont have the knowledge to drift tapping to save the ball.
I don't know if that's really shadow defense per se, that's more aerial/car control. Of course, it happens when your back is towards the ball, and that's also how you are when shadow defending, but when I see hear shadow defense it's more about knowing which position to take in order to shut down your opponent's offense. So it's not just about knowing that since you're backwards your controls are inverted, shadow defending is more about being aware of how your opponent is going to move so you can distance yourself or block his angle. Of course, this is just me arguing semantics. I just don't want people who are in plat who can defend those shots from the back to think "oooh I know how to shadow defend then"
Not practicing shadow defense doesn't mean you're not defending. He's just saying it shouldnt be a focus. It's not something you should hone in your skill on at platinum. Minimum, low quality defense is enough for platinum
Bronze: Positioning Silver: Positioning Gold: Positioning Plat: Positioning Diamond: Positioning + ground control Champ: Positioning + air control GC: master Air control SSL: you probably learned everything
This comment will be overlooked by lower ranked people, but this is it. Add in shooting to it because you need to be able to hit the ball in the net while in the correct position. If you’re under diamond, you just need to learn where to be on the field and the ball will literally just come to you.
@@yiitalpbenI’m GC and hardly know everything. Scrub Killa has a series proving that all you need to get GC is good positioning and hitting the ball hard on target. Nothing more is required. And he did that in 1vs2.
Thank you so much. I’m Gold III and have already learnt how to half flip, air roll and wave dash and was about to start my speed flip but I now realise I should be focusing on power shots. Thank you Luke
yeah don’t even try speedflipping until ur champ until then maybe just learn a diagonal flip with air roll or something because that all u need before champ/grand champ
Got to c2 with nothing but game sense and stuff I learned by pure chance, this video is gonna be my blueprint for learning mech going forward. Thanks so much for this inspiration!
@@mstrdr1 I'm in a similar spot, c1 with no ability to air dribble. Only thing ive got over players is just reading the game really well, predictions and positioning are well above anyone I play with at my rank. I learned it by having high champ to low ssl friends who brought me into cas and actually let me play instead of trying to carry me.
Backwards saves are also so crucial to get from diamond to champ. So many times I rmb in the past I used to just feels backflip when opponent booms high ball over my head. I used Uncomortable Saves pack to train this.
honestly that bakkes mod plug-in you mentioned for the flip reset training was pretty helpful. previously i was always able to consistently get the reset however everything that happened afterwards usually resulted in the flip being wasted or me smacking the ball with my purse and it being lobbed. but even after using this plugin for only an hour i can see improvement in getting power behind my reset shots
About the redirects thing: as soon as you can fly decently you should always be training redirects cus it helps you with your aerial mechanical growth a lot, especially for the lower ranks. In game however I agree that the lower ranks shouldn’t go for them cus they’ll just miss.
Not with that attitude you won’t lol. just know that you can get it and be excited for the journey to learning it. That’s what I’m doing and I’m plat 2. I felt the exact same way but I started playing unlimited time unlimited boost private matches and just practiced stuff I wasn’t comfortable with and even had some friends help me with tips.. training mechanics with other people is more fun to me than free play.. I also JUST started to use free play and I still can’t air dribble but I’m so much closer I can get a couple touches now
Ground to air dribble in GC is surprising. I started using those in D2. Also, speed flips are high risk and low reward if you try to learn them after Diamond. I’m a C2 peak, and speed flips are an absolute pain to attempt.
I'm gc1 almost got gc2 for peek. And I realized I only rlly use the mechanics that are recommended for diamonds. I've mostly mastered those mechanics. I've only recently tried mastering the Champs and gc mechanics. I promise if u truly learn to master those basics yall can make it high
The only real mechanics you need for GC to low SSL are the speed and recovery mechanics. It's good to practise the other mechanics but they are not necessary.
Speaking as someone who is ssl, and has been above 2k since before epic took over RL, I cannot wall dash, I can’t double flip reset, I used to really good at ceiling shots before they became so common. And yet, I haven’t deranked. I still manage to beat pros constantly, and it’s just speed and consistency. I don’t miss my shots, I’m Very good at shot placement, I win most of my challenges regardless of who it’s against. And any ssl who says you NEED any specific mechanic, hasn’t played at a high enough level to just outpace their opponents. Because That’s most of what it is, even in ssl, players miss. PROS do not miss. That’s what makes them pros. You’ll be surprised how rarely pros actually miss. You have to play really well to beat pros even in ranked when they aren’t always trying! But mechanical? Please
learning to air roll consistently when shooting and flying in gold and plat is probably the most overrated thing we could ever do, people these days just hold down air roll and spin using their joystick when shooting wide open ariels which is really ineffective for getting goals or ranking up. this needs more attention bc i don’t want to have any worse teammates in ranked
BROOO THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE I CANT FLY UPSIDE DOWN AND WAS TRYING TO DO TORNADO SPINS ITS A MIRACLE IM ALMOST CHAMP IMA PRACTICE HOW TO FLY UPSIDE DOWN THANK YOU
Recoveries is the most important fundamental that everyone needs to learn. Minimizing the time you need to get back and maximizing the time you CAN (not have to) make a play on the ball.
I think people should only just learn the basics, half flip, fast earials, hitting the ball, and well. Being smart, positioning, rotation. Then figure out your strengths, play to them. And if you like try and improve the things you suck at if you want, or just try and rely and get in situations where you can use your strengths. I am shit at some of the very low ranked mechanics, yet I've been at C2. We're all different players, you can't be good at everything. Of course, the more shit you're good at, the better your chances of doing well. But the tiers you place stuff at is very situational depending on just what type of player you are.
I just started about a month ago but I used redirects not as training for my games but they were a fun way to figure out fast aerials and how to place the ball once I got to it in the air.
Am a d1 that can musty, airial and do many other things but still can't rank up. And I realized the reason why is because I don't train at all. I simply don't test myself which is the most diamond thing that a diamond can do.
Thank you very much I'm in Virtual School and we are just getting the option to join Esports but every single time we get the game it's always rocket League last year we didn't do very well and now I'm in 8th grade and I'm really hoping to win some games this year❤
Personally I got to c1 with just ball control, good shadow defense and intelligent rotations. You really don't need more than that cause everyone in the lower ranks doesn't know what they're doing. As long as you rotate and defend well you'll get very far
I'm a silver three and I only get matched against golds who play like plats and block shots like diamonds so I'm sure a power shot is going to help me.
Ok luke hasnt been a low rank for a long time so i doubt hell know now what is needed: In bronze- hit the ball properly In silver- trick ur opponent In gold- know how to aerial In plat(my rank) get good at mechanics and be aggressive
Then there's me, I'm champ and all I can do I shot the ball with very high power and precision and I can pinch, defensively I do shadow defense. Other than that, I don't know how to flick, I dont know how to dribble, i dont know how to air roll. All you need is consistency, don't miss the ball at the most important times and you should be ok
Sounds to me like ur champ in 3's , not 2s or 1's. I could be wrong, but what u described sounds like just "being a good teammate". Giving your teammates time to work and dribble while you are just ready to clear the ball and punish mistakes. That can def get you a decent win rate.
@@Slycoop well you're technically right but im champ in 2s, in 3s im diamond and in 1s I dont really play a lot só i think i was plat last season but yeah, im pretty good defense wise and I'm not really that good in getting past the defenders, the good thing is that I pretty much fit with every random xD + I have great aim now and as long as theres no one in the net I can score in almost every angle no matter how tight it is
Bro, im in upper gold and my friends in mid silver and we can both make power shots in the all the all star training packs in like several tries and even diamond's custom practice shot pack. Istg everyone underrates these ranks because you can get brand new players here or people with hundreds and thousands of hours, who you play is so inconsistent
Made the mistake of spending hours on air dribbling still in gold I can do couple hit aerial shots but since so many ball chasers I rarely even get the chance thx for the video
Described me to the T. When i first started. I was silver/gold trying to tornado flip. I was so focused on figuring it out I completely put other mechanics to the side🤣
Sad to tell you that the high diamonds and low champs I play with really don't know how to rotate and don't know how to distance themselves from their teammates....
The amount of players I see in my ranks (plat - Diamond) spinning in the air trying to be all fancy and then completely ruining the shot is insane. It's so annoying 😭
You need to realize how much lower ranks have changed. As a gold, I can positively say that just powershots are not enough to get to plat. I’d recommend learning to dribble w/ the ball on your car and getting decent at low ariel shots.
I Started playing rocket and only have like a few hours on the game, and even if I don't understand a thing he's saying, I thank you since i'll use it in the future
Faking helped me through platinum and diamond, guess you should learn it at that time somewhen. And not just faking for shots, more important to me was faking a charge to bait an early shot from the attacker
Yo Luke nobody in the comments probably knows what I’m talking about but I saw that video with you in it and it was very surprising to see you in it and she didn’t even know you.
If you want to kind of cheese your way a little bit then learn ceiling shots early, ceiling shots are not difficult, every diamond player can do them with a couple of hours of practise. Drive up the wall, tap the ball, drive on the ceiling, aim it up whilst still on the ceiling just driving, jump, stick forward, jump. But the problem with ceiling shots is if you’re lazy like me then you’ll completely neglect actual ball control and you will get shitter for learning it
Lol I feel you especially when they hit you with unranked teams all the time. I get Plat and diamond season winners and got hit with a champ team yesterday that were still unranked.
And then the final final thing to train when you master everything is to play kbm so that when you launch your controller across the room you can at least finish the match
Im champ and i only learned a proper fast aerial yesterday and I’ve never used a wave dash yet I can dribble ball on my car very good i have really good ball control thats what got me into plat And im good at saving goals and defence
Got to diamond duos without even realising people were double jumping before their aerials, hence I was getting beat every time when I was single jumping😂as long as ur ok with the ball on the floor and have a good team mate for defence u can go quite far
New players, listen to this man! Learn these mechanics at these beginning levels. Sure it is possible to rank up without them, but it is really, really, not fun. I know this because I, myself, am a Diamond and I can't even dribble. Seriously. Every single person on the field I play against destroys me in mechanics, and it is sooooo frustrating. I am trying to learn mechanics but I am old and mechanics don't come easy to me. I am diamond only purely because I just got good at rotations and game sense. I just wish I had concentrated on mechanics first instead of positioning.
I feel like some of these skills should be put down some ranks, I used to watch musty and learned basic air control in silver, pinches in gold,most of diamond could be condensed into plat too
im gold and then i watched this video , im still gold but i know how to speed flip, double tap ,flick, air roll,shadow defense, im not that good with air dribbles but im getting into it and i once scored a flip reset thanks a lot for making this video it helped me out so much
Directional air roll is what's stopping me...i been in C1 for over a year now, and air roll is just impossible for me to practice and understand mid game...i don't use free play, and everything else in game you can sort of figure out just by playing matches
Ok but like I’m silver and I see people air dribbling almost every game, is anyone else having the same problem? I can’t rank up because I can only fast aerial and I can’t defend their goals

it's really because the standard mechanics are just getting higher and higher so just like you their just trying yo

The fact that bro showed a clip of LJ getting scored on in a bad position and not LJ 1v2 or 1v3ing with a reset or double tap is crazy
Personally I got to c1 with just ball control, good shadow defense and intelligent rotations. You really don't need more than that cause everyone in the lower ranks doesn't know what they're doing. As long as you rotate and defend well you'll get very far
in gold 3v3 the best mechanic is social skills so you dont have to queue with randoms and it will make power shots much less effective
I'm a silver three and I only get matched against golds who play like plats and block shots like diamonds so I'm sure a power shot is going to help me.
Luke is always looking like he just got back from the beach
The fact that I can do everything in Diamond but nothing in the Platinum, is hilarious. Maybe that’s why I bounce between P2 - D2

You missed one thing, if you look at the positioning of your opponent, you can predict their next move and fake them out.
I do flicks in 2v2s, then when it is in the air I pop it up over the other defender
im gonna say one thing, gold is not ez
@LucasLyktberg-qt8jz I cant even make it past silver tbh, I'm just saying that gold is hard, bc gold does know a bit mechanics.
Lol I feel you especially when they hit you with unranked teams all the time. I get Plat and diamond season winners and got hit with a champ team yesterday that were still unranked.
@@ValorantGuy208then keep up
Gold I pretty easy i started playing a few days ago and am moving though gold pretty easily.
I feel with you😢 2:44
And then the final final thing to train when you master everything is to play kbm so that when you launch your controller across the room you can at least finish the match
It is also very good to learn how to predict what players are gonna do in early ranks
I should use more often Preflips, its underrated and not many seen, like ceiling pinches in c2 to gc2 lobbys
Im champ and i only learned a proper fast aerial yesterday and I’ve never used a wave dash yet
I can dribble ball on my car very good i have really good ball control thats what got me into plat
And im good at saving goals and defence
Got to diamond duos without even realising people were double jumping before their aerials, hence I was getting beat every time when I was single jumping😂as long as ur ok with the ball on the floor and have a good team mate for defence u can go quite far
New players, listen to this man! Learn these mechanics at these beginning levels. Sure it is possible to rank up without them, but it is really, really, not fun. I know this because I, myself, am a Diamond and I can't even dribble. Seriously. Every single person on the field I play against destroys me in mechanics, and it is sooooo frustrating.
I am trying to learn mechanics but I am old and mechanics don't come easy to me. I am diamond only purely because I just got good at rotations and game sense. I just wish I had concentrated on mechanics first instead of positioning.
Nah ur my favorite type of tm8 to have, always in position and good rotates, mechs will come
Ye, positioning and rotation > some sh*tty air dribbles that they will fail regardless

I think all the Plats and Champs already mastered the mechs for ssl but not the ones on the lower rank
Nice video man. But you forget the most difficult mechanic that is touch grass.
Man your Videos Are so high Quality, do u edit them By urself or do u have a editer ?
Im plat, can somewhat air dribble and othet basic mechanics like speed flips and things like that, those training packs are going to be so helpful
air roll shot were really helpful, thx
I wish the video was mad when I started in March 😭😭 gr8 video Luke
I learned the speed flip in bronze
Plats and Diamonds are speed flipping on kickoff now
I never thought coaching for gaming would be a real thing.
I was legit just playing rocket league and wanted to look at some videos to improve
Perfect
Love you spookluke!!!❤🔥🤩
Me against my-platinum opponent who flip reset full court on me (not even kidding😢)
Banger vid🔥
ngl i feel like everything in gc can apply to high champ(high c2-high c3) but do still agree with you on a general stand point
I feel like some of these skills should be put down some ranks, I used to watch musty and learned basic air control in silver, pinches in gold,most of diamond could be condensed into plat too
best tierlist
I never know what to think of these videos because im keyboard and mouse in diamond and have prioritized differently as a side effect of kbm
I’m currently c1 and honestly after watching this think I practice resets to much over like ceiling shots
im gold and then i watched this video , im still gold but i know how to speed flip, double tap ,flick, air roll,shadow defense, im not that good with air dribbles but im getting into it and i once scored a flip reset thanks a lot for making this video it helped me out so much
Directional air roll is what's stopping me...i been in C1 for over a year now, and air roll is just impossible for me to practice and understand mid game...i don't use free play, and everything else in game you can sort of figure out just by playing matches
your advice is the opposite of what ive seen in other SSL, like arial in plat.
Thank you for this😊
if you master all the ones up to and including diamond then you are already at GC
No way this guy is still making videos
Bro when I saw the ssl tier I realized that it’s all the mechs I already know how to do lmao
I’ve done all the things on gc that’s you listed but it’s just my tm8s can’t do much of it and I’m c2
for the plat mechanics i know all of them but thanks for the tips
I’m unbanked can airdribble, airoll, flick, double tap, and can mustyyy flick
Ok but like I’m silver and I see people air dribbling almost every game, is anyone else having the same problem? I can’t rank up because I can only fast aerial and I can’t defend their goals
