@@verybored2416 Evample/Henko are calling. Sure, it’s impressive to nail mechanics so well you can do them in a private match with unlimited boost and no ball pressure, but it’s just not *as* impressive anymore. People are basically doing unlimited air dribbles and resets nowadays. Hell, Dark looks like he himself can do that in private matches if he wants with how well he’s nailed resets and reads - ie: he’s more then capable of being a top freestyler like everyone else. But if you can consistently do triple resets with stalls, flips and backflips with limited boost, pogo’s with ssl ball pressure on you at the highest level and make it a very viable scoring option, that’s far more impressive to me.

im pretty sure dark used to be freestyler correct me if im wrong

jesus christ he went absolutely bonkers in the 1st minute

Backwards flip to another flip to another one was just nasty for that triple reset

that pogo into flip reset in the second game was actually insane, ive never seen anything like it in

The first couple minutes of game 1 is easily the highest peak I've ever seen in 1s, the creativity and unique shot approaches he shows are simply unbelievable at times

MORE DARK. I love watching this stuff. It's extremely entertaining, there's so many awesome 1v1 players popping out of nowhere. This is a legendary era to be a fan of 1v1s.

The shot at 1:29, after 3 consecutive mechanical goals in less than 1 minute, is just obscene. Ridiculous mechanics.

I've been playing this game since 2015. I've been mostly in the loop with the pro scene and the talent on top. Dark is worlds above the next best solo offensive player in terms of skill set at his disposal and efficiency at carrying them out. I can't remember if I have ever been even as remotely as excited to start following anyone like I am with Dark.

you should do a showmatch jack vs dark. would love to see how jack deals with this

Imagine you’re coming home from a long day at work and you just wanna enjoy a relaxing evening of splendid rocket league gameplay only to get stunted on and have your highlights sent to Johnnyboi. My worst nightmare

Reminds me of the first time i ever saw joreuz lol he was dunking on scrub in ranked a few years back. The offensive movement is crazy. The speed and mechanics is crazy!

Their needs to be more game modes in RLCS. I watched a dark vs joreuz best of 5 series earlier today on Feer’s channel and it was amazing to see them 2 play so much back and forth it was pure entertainment.

the first game has to be one of the most impressive displays of mechanical dominance ive ever seen

These dark 1v1s are some of the craziest games of mechanical skill and car control

Love watching Dark play. They always keep it interesting and entertaining.

I feel a apparently jack and dark showmatch would be incredible.

oh my goodness that final goal!

I genuinely don’t have words for this mans mechanics

That last play is just ridiculous

what a beast! That last goal, the pogo, the fake, the wavedash bump.....are he be genius?

Reset to pogo to reset was insane

Yes please, more Dark content and showmatches!

Loving the dark videos, yes do more!

The ability to do the right thing and to pick the right item from the bag of options is something everyone wants to be doing He also reads bounces extremely well-most high level players you’ll see them hesitate on a lot of these Really interesting to see this approach and I’m glad he’s bringing about the evolution of it

4:39 good lord that shot was nassssty 😂 I thought he lost it at the end

I haven’t watched an RL video in a year, but boy am I glad I clicked on this one. Kid is nuts!!

10:56 we all saw the musty there but Dark is so unpredictable damn

Dark is the most craziest play style I’ve ever seen I love it

Yup, it’s great. While the obvious prowess of attacks and game sense is great, it’s really that ability to read, react, to change your approach and have answers for what your opponent is doing that makes him look really really good I see a lot of players just sort of shut down when the opponent counters Also looking forward to seeing this more thorough approach to setting up things in the game-too often players just shoot over and over and don’t sort of design the game to their will for the future-but it looks like in his mind he has a good sense of getting those really high % shot setups and that’s what he’s looking for above simply “playing a simple old 1v1”

This guy is the biggest pioneer that I've witnessed since peak Squishy. Just insane.

I’ve never been left with my jaw just wide open nearly as much as I am watching this guy (and he liked my tweet so he’s cool)

Um yeah we/I enjoy this content. No doubt this is incredible match coverage. Great stuff!!!

Its disgusting how good he is

That last pogo felt like Dark was just saying "lemme show u how its done" lmao Pretty fun games to watch I honestly feel like i would rather watch Dark games even if hes losing it really is quite entertaining.

This scares me. I was a close to leaderboard player pre-SSL rank addition, stopped playing for 2 years, come back and suddenly everybody is flast flipping, using air roll binds and hitting every flip reset even in my lowly GC2 lobbies. Now this is possible! Makes me feel so old xD incredible entertainment though, what a player.

A fun thing to do is go into the replays and try and save his shots.

More of Dark(?) please he is mesmerizing to watch

The most impressive thing about dark is his ability to do whatever he wants whenever he wants. His ability to make last second decisions like to pogo and ping top right or to hold on to his flip and strike the bottom corner. This man always keeps his opponents guessing…. he can change the direction and the momentum of the ball so quickly. Don’t get me started on his speed mechanics

First 5 goals is insane
