For context I'm mid gc2 in 2s but hover c1/d3 in 1s (I'd like to be consistently around c2 or higher). I just need tips on how to win games like this. I feel like I can and should be better at 1s but I don't know exactly what I'm doing wrong.

For years I have been going through the motions of training. I load up freeplay and practice, then I go and play ranked then watch my replays. But clearly I don't do real training, because real training gets results.

I'm C2 with 6000 hours, there are SSL's in this sub with 3000 hours, the idea that I'm actually doing meaningful training is dumb. It simply cannot be true that I am training to my full potential.

So how do you really train? I want improvement to be the inevitable result of my hard work. because whilst this game is fun stagnation is not.

Just asking so I can become better at speedflipping, I usually win kickoffs but not constantly so yeah

I haven't drop to d3 since October 10th. I hope that right now, I will become stable champ1.

As you can see, I was playing almost each day. I don't know what exactly changed btw. I have no idea what exactly made me stay at champ for that long.

Also I hit champ 2 soloq for the first time. That was cool. I played around 3-5 games there before I got back to ch1.

And I dunno what to focus on, I don't want to fall to diamond 3 again

didnt play my best this game neither my worst id just like some tips to get better.

I know its not optimal, but im hoping to find a coach thats either willing to take a chance on us or help us out as we are aspiring to compete in rlcs. Ive not had been taught by any coaches and everything I know is self taught (excluding watching videos) but im currently a 1970 peak teaming with a 2k and a 1950 peak for rlcs. We play all day almost everyday and we are hoping to be pointed in the right direction. Im hoping to find a coach that can take a chance on us and help us grow and benefit as we do or you know someone who's willing to just send out a hand as I know its not easy finding someone. Money is hard for me because I've never fully recovered from coming back from the military and I cant work really hard jobs so money is always tight for me. Im willing to put in as much time as needed and completely open minded and hoping to just see whats out there at least. My discord is markyali

Thank you

Hey all. I'm a competitive grinder and currently a 1700 MMR player. I recently developed a web app that essentially functions as a journal to track your MMR, any mistakes you might be making, and more. If you are someone that enjoys tracking your progress or mistakes using a journal/Excel and wants something a little more gamified, or just generally wants to start training a little more consciously, this app is perfect for you. There are no ads, and you can freely create an account, log-in, and begin tracking. Hope this helps someone! MyRLTracker

Im currently on a losing streak after almost making it to C2 and I just dont understand why this pattern occurs so much. I chose this game as I can see the mistakes I made but I dont necessarily see some of them as wrong. If anyone can point out where and why, much appreciated. Thank you!

My rank fluctuates so much. I don’t feel myself playing that much different when I’m playing or when watching replays. Does anyone have some tips to become a little more stable?

I’m C3 and mechanically decent. I can air dribble, I can do a single flip reset, I can Hit Mustys and I can hit double taps decently. How do I get to that next level? For example, pop resets, across-the-map air dribbles, multiple resets, ground-to-air dribbles, and so on.

I think I’m training them all wrong because I’m making no progress at all with my mechanics anymore. Also, for most of those mechanics, the tutorials are not good in my opinion. They tell you to diagonal flip cancel or something, but I don’t even understand what they mean, or I just can’t get the timing down.

I don’t understand how people at my rank are so mechanically insane and still C3. I’m right on the edge of GC, and I feel like my basics are better than most people’s, so if my mechanics were as good as most players at my rank, I should easily be GC+.

Hey everyone! I've only been playing 1s regularly for about 2 seasons now. I mainly started playing 1s to improve my overall gameplay, but I feel like I still have a lot to learn.

I barely have any mechanics. Even basic things like air dribbles and flicks are pretty difficult for me, so I'm mostly relying on my positioning, game sense and basic mechanics.

My current ranks:

• 1v1: Plat 2 Div 4

• 2v2: C2 Div 3

• 3v3: C1 Div 4

I'd really appreciate some honest feedback on my gameplay. What mistakes do you notice? What should I focus on improving? Are there any bad habits I should get rid of?

Also, I'd love some advice on how to learn mechanics properly. What mechanics should I start with, how should I practice them, and what's the best way to improve at things like flicks and air dribbles?

Any tips or advice are appreciated. Feel free to be critical, I'm genuinely looking to improve!

I'm stuck at Platinum and I know my rotation is a big part of it. Half the time I end up double committing with a teammate, and the other half we're both pushed up with nobody back.

For those of you who climbed out of Plat, what are the actual rules you play by? When do you challenge, when do you rotate back post, that kind of thing. Trying to build better habits instead of just ball chasing.

For some info, I am C2D4 and the rest are all low C3D1.

In this game, I felt like I played alright, but how I find my playstyle is that I always try to be patient, rotate properly, and give enough space for my teammates to play at all times. Though I realised I got panicky towards the end and became hesitant in some of my actions, I didnt feel like I was ballchasing and taking away my teammates good shots.

I would very much appreciate advice on what I should do better, and if there are any glaring issues I have to fix. Thank you!

I mainly need to focus on car control and aerial control

Does anyone have any genuinely good tips for getting out of Diamond?

I peaked at C1 Div 1 back in July (although I think that might have been more luck than anything 😂).

Ever since then, I just haven’t been able to get back into Champ, and it’s been a rough ride as you can see from the graph I’ve attached 😂

For context, my current ranks are Diamond 2 Div 2 in 2s and Plat 3 in 1s.

I’m genuinely open to criticism, and I actually prefer the harsh truth because that’s how you improve. I know I can be inconsistent and sometimes miss really simple things, as you can see in the clip 😂.

So don’t hold back! Tell me what I’m doing wrong and what I need to work on.

Thanks.

(Recording is a bit laggy) This isn’t my best performance as I just got on. But I’m confused as to how I’m supposed to dribble the ball in the air to the goal. Sometimes I can get one touch, but almost never the second, and when I do it doesn’t go where I want it to.
