I'm commenting about players who don't flip in kickoffs up in plat/diamond (was me) It's due to the consistency you get with the final ball contact and the fact that the other player is often slow as well. It's hard for lower ranked players to be accurate in their first flip so the best way to have a consistent kickoff is just to drive straight at it. Now that I'm in d3-c1 I'm seeing more fast kickoffs . so the plain drive and even frontflip often isnt fast enough. So now working on a good speedflip on kickoff which is a process.

@kiiturii

10 ай бұрын

this, I'm a 1's main and at a lower rank I really learned how to read the opponents movement so I could hit the ball in the correct position during the kickoff, speed was never an issue so that's what I got used to, now as a low diamond I'm seeing speedflip kickoffs all the time and while it's still more than possible to read it and hit the ball after they get the first touch, it's really not ideal. I'm trying to get just a normal flip kickoff down so I still keep the consistency and after that work on the speedflip kickoff which is going to take way longer lol

@chriscotton4207

10 ай бұрын

For me it's actually because I lose the kick off on diagonal center. If it's corners I go for boost and take the ball with boost. I win way more this way than speedflipping on the ones I lose

Fantastic video and analysis thanovic! I haven’t seen a rank break down quit like this from anyone else. Nice job

Been wanting something like this and you did it better than I imagined. Great work!

This is the perfect content for me as a Plat 3 that dips into diamond 1 sometimes… Thank you so much this actually helps more than you might realize

This video truly was nice to watch and I can see you put a lot of effort to it, there's just one thing that I think could be improved : when you're trying to teach someone something, it's important to give actionnable advice. There are points in the video where you advise the players to play faster, think faster, etc., but it's not really something you can work on by itself. Players in higher ranks DO play faster, but you can't really improve by solely trying to do so. So, pointing out the fact that there is a speed difference between ranks can be a good thing, but you can't really tell someone to play faster or think faster. Other than that, once again, I enjoyed the video, it was really well put together, and I can't wait to delve even more in your RL content !

Weirdly such a useful video. Currently GC1 but not sure what else there is to do but now I know what my next steps for improvement are.

Interesting video ! There's one thing I have come around on, I remember on one of your old kick off tutorial I think you said that you should always try to flip on kick offs, you also were surprised to see lower ranked players not flipping in their gameplay in this video. I used to try to apply this way of thinking to my own gameplay, but I would say that at a C2 level in 2s, a third of the players still don't flip on kick offs, and have found ways to counter most kick offs with different timing on their dodges. I used to think it was stupid, and still think it's not going to help them train on the long run, but with the consistency of most champs players on their flips or speedflips, I have to admit that not flipping, at least at my level, is absolutely viable and can be consistent. My wife, with whom I play 100% of my 2s games, is also C2 and that's the only kick off she does, she's just developed different timings depending on her opponents. I have thus added the run straight at the ball kick off to my arsenal in my 2s ranked games, mixing it with diagonal and speedflips. However, I agree that in 1s if you don't speedflip you're going to be hopeless past D2 ! Thanks for the video

Right, like it's cool n all but I'd rather just not let the ball fly at the goal that's the important part. Or the goalie should wait till after kickoff to leave the net open for a second.

Thank you for letting me participate! These tips are so helpful! Yes, I know, I was a champ that didnt speed flip and I hated it. For some reason I just couldnt get the movement down. But after coming back from Boston LAN Ive had more confidence and have started speed flipping in every game since.

@@KillerFox971 You're not the only one bro. It pisses me off so much whenever I see my teammate going straight forward at kickoffs, and it often times, lead to a bad situation for us because they don't know how to hit it either. I think it's more due to new player base from the game being f2p, where they all want to be flashy and mecha like pros instead of knowing the basics and how usefull they are.

I just did the grind to unlock ranked as a new player to the game. Most of my placement matches was 1v2 as the opponents scored a single quick goal and my teammate just leaves. I still won the majority of the games. I placed gold. I’m far from my peak and am getting better with every match and every hit. One beyond truthful thing is that there is no trust at this rank. Everyone chases like there is no tomorrow. Hitting the ball without any care of where that ball will go or who it will go to. So many times my teammates climbs the wall and sets up perfect shots for the opponent then flames without communicating their intentions. I’ll get flamed for passing the ball to my teammates or faking a play to set my teammate up for a good shot because I don’t have the angle and always communicating with my m8s through out. I feel like with more air practice I would be at least plat. I need a buddy to do this with so I don’t have to resort to being more defensive because my randoms chase and just hit the ball to hit the ball.

I am champ 3 div4 and am trying to reach gc and im not very mechanical but i will say if im just a little bit faster it could be the difference. And less mistakes, i really gotta get that consistency

I already do all of this stuff, I am plat 1 and even on my goal line, if I have space and the oposition team is going for boost, Instead of banging it down field to them, I take my time and pop a ground to air dribble or usually I just take the ball up the wall bc plats have really poor wall defence and Its easy for me to hit it under or over them. when I say take it up the wall I dont mean air dribbling, even tho I can do that. I even wave dash off wall recoveries when I need to, I line up my car perfectly if I miss the ball on an aerial shot so that I land tires first on the wall. and I learnt to flip cancel and half flip for recoveries. I learn from pro 1v1s, Mainly Zen dominating, but ye I learn from watching a lot of RLCS and I put their game play into my game play.
