I'm 100% going to start practicing mechs with peripherals. That's such good advice and I'm upset I've never thought about it after thousands of hours. Well done!

This idea applies even at low levels. I made it to high diamond without even be able to aerial. When I finally learned aerial reliably, I dropped a lot of MMR because I felt the need to go on the air all the time. It took me time to learn when to/when not to before I finally broke through to champ.

Awesome vid. I always think about it like this... you have to be solid at the fundamentals and the quick pops/flicks in order to EARN the respect of your opponents, which causes them to back off more, in turn allowing you to do more slow setup mechanical plays. If you ever watch people higher level than you and think "wtf, they're giving him so much space... if it was me they would have monkey challenged me already" that is why.

I agree in a sense, but I'm not sure if respect is the right word below SSL, more you have to scare your opponent so they won't challenge you knowing you can do anything with the ball. Diamonds and Champs and even lower GCs aren't scary, your opponents won't be scared to challenge you. You have to work on your arsenal of mechanics so you're not easy to read. Past that they'll instead wait back and shadow hoping they find an inconsistency in your setup. Your breakdown is technically correct, specifically above/around 2k mmr.
youd think most of this stuff is common sense but solo queue teammates always there to prove you wrong.

realised this semi recently. started ranking up fast by just not overcomplicating a shot. ie if you can tap it in, then do it
this was a great refresh for my mental in the game. most of this is or should be considered common sense, but it’s the little things. you point out the small things that a lot of people overlook constantly and all the “small” mistakes get turned into goals by the enemy team in higher ranks. thanks for the upload, this was needed.
I did peripherals training at my mechanical peak and it helped me immensely. However, not sure if this mentioned in the video but an extra tip is look at the ball, car, scan for boosts and sometimes try to avoid the worst possible scenario by predicting it, let us say you got a flip reset you can aim to score or you could on purpose to not score cause maybe you suspect it will be saved and get punished by a counter attack so utilize the threat of shooting and go for a bump/demo, fake, steal boost, force them to react to a weird shot, 50/50.
This is genuinely one of the best videos I've ever seen addressing mechanics!! It's great to see someone finally placing the importance on mechanics as a tool for savvy plays as opposed to the other way around.
Nice vid! Thanks for taking the time to make it. One suggestion: might be helpful to incorporate slo-mo when showing the step by step decision making parts. It’s a little less jarring when you have to stop-start each piece.

Good suggestion, thankyou! Appreciate it
dude, this is exactly what i realised too. I dont go for fancy mechanics unless i know ill get away with it. and every mechanic i practice ive done so while looking either at the ball or somewhere else. Not my car. Awesome video, you put it into words greatly
Hitting flip resets in training: Easy 😎 Hitting flip resets on my SSL opponents: 💀💀💀
this video is awesome i have the right mentality every time i get dunked but i think where i go wrong is that i think i am just too slow and i am fairly inconsistent like 60% success rate through resets but the only time i go for resets is when i have way too much time and space and because it looks flashy but usual just air dribbles / double taps but i just feel like ingame i have to much pressure and kindof lose a lot of that consistency but i dont know, anyway amazing video

Yeah doing mechanics ingame is a whole different beast than doing them in freeplay. Too many things going on that you have to consider.
was hardstuck c2 for what feels like a year since i started really trying to improve my mechanics (i practice only in queue training mode) and once i stopped focusing all my energy to using them in game, i got straight to mid-high champ 3 comfortably. goes to show how much you hurt yourself by trying to force mechanics into your gameplay. even if you end up not doing it, when its on your mind so actively, it can slow your gameplay down a lot

Yeah it’s a weird thing people like to tell themselves they’ve gotten “better” because they learnt new mechanics but they end up losing more and don’t know why.
Damn I’ve actually worked on the peripheral thing and have never heard anyone talk about it. I guess it’s worth investing more time into. It’s especially obvious in 1v1
the just because you can doesnt mean you should is something i brought up in my video on "why you aren't hardstuck" glad you talk about this!
Dude your move at 2:27 was wyld
I hope more people see this. I hate when I get partnered with someone who treats a 2v2 compet as a 1v2 casual, and just practices mechanics
You wanna know how to get good mechanics? Literally play the game. The more hours you have doing a mechanic the better you’ll get, that’s why freestylers have thousands of hours

Yes and No… u got it all right , except it’s gotta be WITH Intention. If not ur wasting time trust me. I’ve been playing since RL Beta on PS4 , and last year highest rank still was diamond since 2015. I just shifted and kept doing the SAME but with Intention. Rn I’m GC2 - GC2. Intention is key
keep on making videos. im actually loving these, especially the talking types of ones like the one about dark.

imma need those camera settings my boy
my problem is that im trying to learn how to be mechanical not the gamesense part of mechanics... like i have quite literaly no mechs other than dribbling and shooting - im missing flicks, air dribble somehow. Yet i can preflip the balls of any surface to speed the tempo up and am gc which comes in 90% from gamesense. Grinding mechanics for more than half a year yet stuck at same level of mech. And my mechanical level can screw me up so much that im literaly able to miss the easiest ball in air u could think of (like wtf is this)
yeah ive been learnign air dribbles recently but i havent really implimented them into my game in any shape or form
This has been a reality check for me lol 😅
the best SECRET to mechanics most people don't talk about : get a better pc and controller
I agree with your opening statement
I don't think there is a secret, mechs just come with time put in the game , I am almost at 1000 hour and I just recently started being much more mechy somehow , the only thing I changed is that I do freeplays now where I try to practice specific things like 20 min flicks , then 20 min double taps , 20 min air dribbles and flip resets or just simply speedflip etc , if I would compare my current self to how I played like 200 hours ago it is a totally different level , freeplay is the best practice imo
God, whenever I see a video like this it makes me want to return to this game… really well made and definitely going to make a difference for how players practice and think about mechanics

I’m so happy I was one of your first 200 subscribers I feel so cool Can’t wait for more videos You break things down in an easy to understand way Even as a plat I think I can get farther with this I too often try to air dribble (which I’m pretty decent at for a plat) when I know it’s the wrong thing I’m just not consistent enough for it to be viable Now I’m going to try to avoid all air dribbling until everything else stops working and anytime I do try one (like if I know it’s the right thing) I’ll be more attentive to my opponents than I assumed I was If nothing else, I’m happy I was wrong because you being right makes me feel like I can be better

So many GC2 players that need to watch this and stop going for mechanics every possession 😂, how about apply pressure and force some awkward touches with a 50/50 so we can score a regular shot

2:56 😐revers that for every thing up to diamond 3.. 80% of the time I'm playing a 1v3.
great video!
What are your camera settings? Nice to watch
such a good vid
I was wondering why It felt like I kept getting worse the more mechanics I tried to learn, and I think this video hit the nail. Like 2 weeks ago I reached diamond and I was even able to carry my games up to at least diamond 2 in 2v2s (that's how far I got before I felt like I had to learn more mechanics since other people started doing fancier stuff) but recently I've been rage queuing my way down to platinum 3 even. This got me in a terrible mood as it felt like I just suddenly became garbage at the game, since I never even demoted from diamond after I got the rank, until now. This video explains why it suddenly felt so hard to play against plat players compared to diamond ones, since they always just challenge everything, thus when I went for these more mechanical plays that inevitably takes longer to set up, they just got repossession of the ball again. I think I need to actually learn more fundamentals instead of training fancy mechanics such as air dribbles and flicks since very often I find myself failing simple dribbles and challenges which just makes me give possession of the ball to the opposing team. Doesn't matter if I can do flip resets if I can't get the ball in the air in the first place right? Anyways, this video was very helpful in me realizing this; thank you!

Yeah the learning new mechanics and getting worse thing is definitely a thing, continue practicing mechs as well as fundamentals, but only use them once you know you can consistently, or in situations where it won’t be terrible if you fail.
