The Honest Truth Of How To Rank Up In Rocket League. Todays video is a seriously easy to understand breakdown of how to rank up in rocket league, nothing more, nothing less. It has been a while since I did one of these videos, and with more people asking every day for coaching or help, I thought I should put something out that can help everyone!

I love how down to earth, honest and real you are in this video. There are too many gaming creators that do the exact opposite. It's honestly refreshing seeing a creator like you. Another thing I love is how calm and nice this video is. All other gaming videos I have come across, except for minecraft, are crazy fast, loud, packed eith jokes and flashy graphics everywhere. It's really nice to get a break from all of that.

Most helpful tip in this video for me was to work on your weaknesses instead of trying to improve what you're already good at. Personally I'm very strong in the air but very weak on the ground so having both balanced out would definetly boost my skill a lot and more. Thank you for making me more aware of this.

Honestly, I feel like this video not only applies to Rocket League - but applies to life overall perfectly. Having a positive mindset, staying consistent, setting achievable goals. All stuff that applies in so many places!
@tubax926

not for everyone. Setting achievable goals is very counter intuitive for some people. For me for example, if I know it is achievable, then why bother doing it? I prefer doing things way beyond my means, and after weeks or months of practice and trying to achieve it, the easier stuff becomes so easy to the point that I say "ehh why not". Same with staying consistent. I make the most progress when I play in bursts of a few days, take a break for a few days, and return. Maybe staying consistent on a weekly/biweekly basis. Positive mindset also. Being insecure about the what you're trying to get good at can unsheathe unimaginable levels of drive and determination. Definitely no "i suck and i will never get good at the this" stuff though, that I agree with. Just understand that you are indeed bad, and that you need to do SOMETHING (take action) to get better. The video is just a generic formula to improvement. It doesn't apply to everyone 100%, but there's something everyone can take from it.

@tubax926 I think you are misunderstanding what "achievable goals" means. It is a goal that you have not accomplished, and one that can be very hard and very challenging, but keeps in mind limitations. You cannot just set the goal to reach ssl in a week if you are bronze and expect it to work. "Stuff beyond your means" is still an achievable goal. You do not have the means, or skills, or whatever, but you can obtain those if you work hard enough, to eventually reach your goal. (Proving it is in fact, attainable) The point is that you there are impossible goals, easy goals, and challenging goals. Staying within your limits does not mean you are not accomplishing a goal that pushes you further then you've ever been pushed, but rather a goal that is actually achievable through real world steps, instead of something literally impossible, like building a rocket that will fly to the moon with no experience and only the stuff in your backyard.
This video is so honest, thanks for being honest where it is east to just give us an easy answer. W video
That’s a damn refresher. I’ve found myself getting way to frustrated over missing shots I went after that I know I’m not very well at making to begin with. I definitely put in the time but I need to hit the training more often. Thanks for keeping it real!

I just work on learning and mastering new mechanics and implementing them in ranked games, and watching my rank go up
There is one thing you can practice that will most of the time result in ranking up. It's shooting consistency. If you're diamond or even champ you'll see alot of missed shots. The ability to know how to touch the ball and having the control to shoot it where you want will improve your overall gameplay.

@@tubax926 I'd say even average isn't enough depending on what we consider average. The average c1 misses too much so they should definitely work on it. Even many gc's myself included are pretty inconsistent for being gc. Also shooting consistency doesn't just make your shots better it can also make your overall ball control better. By practicing shooting consistency you learn how and where to hit the ball which is helping with alot of stuff in the air too. My ceiling shots and flip resets for example got way better because i know where to hit the ball.

honestly inspiring vid, such a great man.
Could you make some sort of shooting training guide? I can work on flicks and aerials individually, but actually knowing what to do in game, how to get past defenders, and how and when to pull off each type of shot has been eluding me. I'm low diamond right now.
As a gold (technically unranked since I switched to KB/M on PC recently and got a new account) I'm happy to see a tutorial that makes sense. This legitimately looks like something that would help, as it works in the real world too. If only my ping wanted to help me...
I've gotten from gold to champ But I never did it in jumps, it's all just done progressively. But for me, my latest block was just not going for the ball as quick as I could. And for that I was stuck in dia 2. But for others it might be positioning or mechanics, so there's no one size fits all
Thanks so much gonna work on my weak points 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤

I struggle a lot with the whole mentality part of the game. Every single match I get pissed and start complaining about the opponents and I can never think possativelly about the tame
Man, I'm so glad that I kindof just... ranked up. Idk, the only things I grinded was airdribbles in d2 and after that I did like 2 training packs per month. Currently I'm champ 1 in 2s d3 in 3s and d1/2 in 1s. I've been playing since f2p and have like 1000 hours now. I guess I got decently lucky with my mentality and thanks to creators like thanovic and wayton I managed to not turn into toxic waste lol

same, aomehow I just ranked up from d3 to c3 in an extremely short amount of time (like 2 or 3 weeks) I honestly dont know what happened, i guess it just clicked, since I didnt notice anything drastic change in my gameplay
It’s the fennec. I went from stuck at gold 3 to plat 3 div 3 just with the fennec alone. It’s the hitbox def invest in one.
I think consistency comes in different ways for different people. It also relies a lot on what they practice. Like for me I've seen poor consistency practicing workshop maps day in, day out; and playing when I am too tired (-even if I practice when I am not tired, then go into a few games when I am, its like it reverses my practice); practicing non-basic mechanics (-for example I find the most consistency practicing the boring stuff like flicks, speedflips, and shots -- these are all things I am already decent at, but striving for perfection in these basic areas make me move around the field and hit the ball with more confidence); and the list goes on. As I previously mentioned I personally see the most consistency doing an hour or 2 of speedflip, flicks, and shooting practice. And of these boring mechanics I choose whichever one I feel like doing the most each day and do it, by itself, no distractions. Then play a few games of ranked while trying my best. Throughout the 1.5 - 4 hours I may play in a session I take breaks every 25-45 minutes (-hands off controller) and never "tilt queue" or do so at night when I am tired. I spent a year or 2 (-when I didnt have a job) doing nothing but grinding the game day in and day out. Eventually I got a job and was too tired to play so quit for 6 months. Upon coming back I seriously thought out how I wanted to improve. And I picked the 3 things that had degraded the most and for the last 3-4 weeks done only those 3 things + 20m of freeplay prior and ranked after, with some other guidelines. For some people a routine may be better, but it didnt work for me. Sure I improved but I never gained consistency (-over that year and a half I went from GC1 --after derusting--, about 1470 post S3 MMR change -> 1650 mostly consistently with peaks being ~1540 post F2P -> 1719 3s, 1709 2s). I don't know how this will go because I am definitely still in the derusting period, but so far I haven't had a day where I am playing "bad" (-relative to when I came back), only when I am tired I do. I also have ranks completely disabled and rank viewing websites blocked on my PC and friends that wont tell me my rank when I ask them not to, which helps.
I love it when you casually hit a psycho at 4:01 lol

Honestly great advice
Definitely hard to maintain optimal outlook when random tm8s do not follow rotation nor proper spacing. More driving backwards and letting loose in Casual Breh.
Great vid
The best advice nobody has said that everybody ignores. “Its just a game.” You play it to have fun, life doesn’t depend on it. Well for most people. If you are having fun whether you are winning or losing, you are already winning, the game is a privilege.
I was the 90th Like on this video, and so I'd just like to thank my legs for always holding me up. and my office chair for always having my back.
That phyco on the 3:50 was insane wow
As a Champ 1, Can I just say that if you're anywhere below Plat 2, to get there, it's really simple. up until about gold 3 players can only play forwards, they can only score and save and clear when they are facing the ball. If you learn 360 degree gameplay, so that your efficiency doesn't depend on your angle, It's completely free way to get to Plat 2.
I just want to trade again and it would also be lit to get the og cloud 9 decal and also emerald pros
Thank you soooooooooooo much I ranked up from gold to grand champ and I hit a musty flick❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
whats the best training pack to warm up
Most honest take on progression
My peak was d3 div 4 like 5 months ago, now somehow after touching this game again after such a long time, im now stuck in plat 2 😭
I think playing in a way that allows you to rank up fast makes the game boring for most people. In ranked games, you have to go for the few things you can do rather than trying the things you wished you could do. Go for new things in training, but wait before using those new things..
How do I get the ball to stop flying around the map in free play? That’s the only reason I don’t really train. I’ll be going for the ball and some random ghost hits the ball away from me
Just saying I did a routine for 3 days and I went from gold 2 to platinum 2 to d1 am almost d2 now on day 6 of my routine
You've outgrown that pfp brother
yea i've been stagnant at gc1-2 for like 2 years just because i don't have the time to put in to get to that next level. still love the game tho
What if I’m good at positioning in 2v2 and 1v1 but 3v3 I get lost, it’s so hard to read more than 1 teammate and 2 enemies without Voice Comms. I find it hard to actually win consistently without giving up goals or games because of this issue, I still climb but it makes it very slow/war of attrition as apposed to my 2v2 climbing of the ladder
No one ever talks about the consistency of how you place your hands on the controller. I want to survey all the pros to see how they hold the controllers. If you just throw your hands on there randomly you won't get consistent inputs.
I am like one inch away on aerial long shots time and time and time and time again. It’s like just less than a .0001 second off and it sucks. Only shots I seem to hit are the ugliest ones, I’m only plat-diamond but the division is such a mess with either ball chasers who spend the entire game trying to air dribble and aerial tricks off the wall hoping to get a clip without even have the capability to hit 1/100, and in 3v3 other players are really bad about bunching together getting caught in the corners and long shot scored on: I just keep spending more time in free play doing training packs and within a month have seen a dramatic improvement and have been winning 70-80% of my games

I agree with but there's a few arguments if you play twos your teammate can screw you repeatedly there's enough Smurfs y u think it's so dead of a game and I say that because of the ranking system when you solo queue any game mode it goes by if it's casual MMR and if it's rank it matches by title of you then randomizes up and down depending on how you're playing if you win you go up if you lose you go down

Honestly the only 2 things you need to get dimond+ is hitting the ball consistently when you go for it and rotating back post on defence. I don't get to play much maybe once or twice a week and I'm a low Plat in 3s and 2s and gold 1 in one's and I've been dimond 1 in 2s and 3s just by hitting the ball and rotating.

Thank you for the tips Myself I don't believe in learning mechs early on I have gotten to diamond and I learned half flip 2 weeks ago. My dribbles are non-existent so that's what I'll slowly build on next. I have a set schedule for myself with 2 hours of gameplay a day That isn't a crazy amount but I think I'll get somewhere someday either way I am not shooting for SSL I just want to get better and feel like I deserve my rank lol I'll probably extend that playtime once I am comfortable streaming for that long.

here's the thing. it is 100% possible to get to champ without any mechs, but it will take you an unreal amount of time to learn how to counter all the high mech plays that your opponents do. It's far quicker to focus on learning the absolute basics like powerful consistent shots, bounce dribbles, powerslide cuts, recoveries and aerials, then gamesense your way up to champ. You will get there 3x faster this way. After learning and being consistent at the absolute basics, pick one move that you like (shooting, ground dribble flicks, air dribbles, etc) and practice it whenever you can to improve it. It will serve as your sword and shield to get you out of any sticky situations and create way more scoring opportunities, plus it doesn't take much time to master a single move if you're constantly using it in competitive games (you will mess up a lot at the start). You'll feel great about having it developed so much, that when you use it you basically look like an SSL player (your other mechs would be extremely average though). Not time efficient, but we aren't robots. This allows you to have fun at the game while grinding.

i was hoping this would be a flip reset tutorial
somehow lucky af champ here: I never learn how to flip reset, nor fast quick off or any mechanic. Just think your t8 will always miss, so that means never commit for the ball, never go for an easy shot if you see a t8 there, any ball close to your net just take it off as hard as you can and you'll get to diamond easily. Because at the end of the day you win because they don't score on you, no because you score a sick goal. EDIT: Also I literally never touch the ball twice, I just try to push it and completely rotate, if I stay more than 3 seconds I'm probably gonna mess up, so I let my t8 mess up so then the opponent mess up and then I get a free goal or a free save.

Mechanics, Every. Single. Friend I have who is stuck in champ claims they get there because they are great at game sense and defense and aren’t good at mechanics. This is like playing against Steph Curry in basketball thinking you can beat him because you have great rotation and defense. If you don’t have the speed or mechanics, it’s not gonna matter
I wish to be able to keep a positive mentality, but it's to hard unfortunately, it's THE thing locking myself to rank up 😞
Wait... we're not supposed to try to forfeit every game whether or not we're winning or losing to rank up??
What about school bc I’m 15 and want to do well and study
It also takes longer to rank up because of the obscene amount of smurfs in lower ranks.
There are so many things I want to do every day! I'm a uni student and sometimes I feel like there's minus 3 days left to finish my homework. So yeah, I'm definitely happy if I can only fit 2 or 3 matches that day. Especially now since I have my mid-term exam haha. Recently I started playing 3 to 6 games of 1s as a warm up routine. I feel like it really highlights the small mistakes I make, and I'm usually more consistent after a few matches. Not very good if your goal is to grind 1s, but I think it's viable if you only care about 2s and 3s.
I honestly think it’s mechanics. Everyone I know whose “stuck” never work on mechanics and think that they have great positioning and defense (when they really don’t) those videos on how to rank up with no mechanics have really screwed a lot of people into believing mechanics aren’t important

Just come to high plat/low diamond and learn from the players on the other team who are hitting triple reset mustys and double backboard touches. I mean, you're not gonna rank up but you might drop enough rank to not have to deal with the cheating smurfs and you can get good, fair matches.
