am I wrong for leaving this for my teammate? (reupload)
decided to reupload this cus I didn't include my pov the first time but I think it's important for context. I am the octane player in the first clip leaving the ball. as you can see I only took a few glances back at my teammate to check his position. I didn't look at his car orientation I only saw his name plate and I just assumed he was facing upfield. I do think we both made mistakes but I think from my pov I made a fair assumption that he would be facing upfield from his position. now let me know what y'all think 😅
What's stopping me from reaching GC?(Champ 3 Div 1)
This was my 2nd game of today in Champ 3, though I felt my mechanics weren't that good. What do I need to work on to reach GC this season?
Air dribble help
I am currently a gold 2 and when ever I practice air dribbling I can get 2 to 3 touches consistently but can never get a shot on goal. Any tips that I should use?
Learning DAR & New Button Layout (DAR & Aerial Help)
Okay so for the last hour I’ve been using a re-mapped controller (boost now on R1 and RDAR & LDAR on circle and square respectively)
I have never used DAR before but can definitely see its uses, I play at around Plat 2 level and have never rolled when doing aerials at any stage, only free air roll to correct landings.
As you can see I’m pretty bad but it has only been an hour and before I pick up bad habits I wondered if anybody can tell me what I should be doing and how to maximise my air roll ability?
(unsure why the brightness is so bright, it isn’t that bright on my monitor)
Why did I not get a good pop reset in this specific clip? What can I do to improve them
This kind of stuff always happens to me, it's really annoying considering Im GC1 almost GC2 and cant even do a mechanic like this.
People have told me to stop air rolling as much, and here I don't think I air rolled excessively, and yet still I managed to get a weird double jump hit on the ball.
Random tip: hitting the ball while boosting heavily impacts the ball speed. if you often fail to keep the ball close, try not boosting on contact, then boosting right after the hit
almost embarrassed to say I didn't learn this until recently as I was struggling with wall hits always running away from me when wanting to pop.
hope it helps someone else as well :)
No mechs, how to improve?
As the title says, I don’t really have any mechs, and have always hovered around D3-C1 when the game went to f2p
I haven’t really played the game consistently at all in honestly 3 years. I decided to return today expecting my placements to go horrible, but surprisingly I placed right back at D3 lol. Was expecting D1 with how much players have improved since f2p
The only real mechanics I know is a half flip, simple wave dashes for recovering, simple aerials and if I’m lucky, a double tap.
I feel like my game sense at least defensively is okay, I know It could always improve, but was wondering if there’s any really good videos for learning air roll left, (can’t do it midair at all) or improving on my ground game with control and flicks. Also I know I have to play 1’s I just get really mad at myself lol.
Any tips are appreciated, thanks.
Tips for carrying teammates.
I was low D3 a couple of weeks ago, but since then I have somehow fallen to Platinum 3 and am struggling to get back up. Any advice on how I can make a bigger impact on the game? I am a pretty dangerous threat in this rank when I have the ball under control, but in 3s I struggle to find the time and space to set up a dribble or aerial play. Any advice is appreciated, whether it is game-specific or things I need to focus on in training.
Hi, C3Div3 here. Never hit GC with 4000+ hours. Looking for any tips - whether mechanically or tactically. Thanks!
Now from my POV, I think what I'm missing is mostly pressing more - I feel like I let go a little too much and give too much room. Fixable with playing more 1s.
The other thing I could note is perhaps lack of creativity. I think after 1, 2 min of playing time my game style becomes understandable and the opponents can essentially adapt to it.
Regardless if you agree or disgree I'd love to get peoples opinions :)

Flip reset help
Flip reset keeps hitting the back of my car like this, how can I adjust to score and have more threatening resets?
Looking for a Roadmap for freestyling
Hello, a wannabe freestyler here, I am looking for a checklist or a roadmap of sorts to make progress in freestyling, I have asked this question once before too, and I got alot of recommendation to learn just whatever I want to learn or learn whatever seems fun to me which opens up alot of options to me and I can't stay consistent in learning one mechanic, for example I was learning maktuf resets but thougt maybe I should learn beautiful musties first then I started learning stalls then I started learning just a bunch of different mechanics and can't stay consistent in learning one mechanic, I'm always thinking maybe I should learn this before that because I'm lost, I will really appreciate a roadmap with all sorts of mechanics, it might help other players getting into the mechanical side of the game too, Thank You.
Trying to improve to reach c3
Hey again
I’m still c2 nothings really changed except I feel like my gameplays been getting worse each day I can’t even get a 3 win streak anymore
I think I’m bad at everything overall at the moment my problem is that I don’t know what I lack and what should I try improving on and how to improve on it I’ve also been getting confused on when to challenge which probably sounds dumb but idk it’s like my brain stops working when thinking about challenging or no.
What did I lack or do wrong that prevented me from scoring that goal?
Hey guys. I'm learning how to use air rolls in games and I think I'm getting good at it, but I wanted to know what I did wrong. I accept suggestions, tips and criticism (but don't be too harsh, just be honest). I'm Diamond 2, I recently climbed, so I'd be grateful for any help.
How do you actually get good at the game?
​
I have around 320 hours on the game my best mechanics are halfflip and zap dash and I can barely do air dribble my peak rank was plat 1 and I'm usually in gold
What are some tips you have? How do i actually get good? What do i start with? How many hours should i put in?
Because I feel like I've been carried since I started playing the game
My goal is to reach champ/ grand champ within the next 2-3 months
First ground to air dribble attempt in comp. How do I improve it?
Particularly I'm not sure why I lost so much control from the first touch. This led me to use so much boost to get back to the ball.
How do I launch it with control and keep my touch close? This is D3 2s for context.
When to flip in a speedflip?
I'm trying to learn speedflips, i can do the diagonal flip reset and air roll at the end. But the thing I don't see anyone talk about, what is the optimal time to flip after boosting? Is it straight at the beginning? Or wait half a second?
Average D2 in 2s currently struggling to get out of Plat 3 and D1. Where should I improve?
Not worried about air mechanics for now. In this game I was struggling mechanically due to tiredness but I want to focus on gamesense and decision-making.
What are the most important tips you've learned recently, that actually helped you improve?
I'll start. I just learned how to take 50s. Be the last one to flip (if you flip at all) So simple. Went and tested it, and I won 90 percent of them!!
I also learned not to boost into the ball when you make contact with it on air dribbles. I just did my first cross map air dribble without using a dodge first touch or flip resets.
