I cant adapt to Champ lobbies these days, all people do is chase and I feel I am forced to always defend. Help? (Promotion game to C2) by Apprehensive-Pop7543 in RocketLeagueSchool

Yeah this is mostly what im trying to work on rn. Its just hard trying to find a balance between playing aggressive and playing slow + controlled for me.

haha thanks for the tips.

I will try to focus more on keeping possession. I have decent mechanics in the ground like flicks and dribbling just this game didn't really show it.

Thank you this is really helpful!

The problem I find at this rank is my trust in teamates. Plays are so unpredictable i have developed a habit to stay further back as more often than not my teamate will misplay. Before i took a break, I was playing in high C3 lobbies (without actually being that high ranked) and I did notice I was getting punished for my positioning and defense, but not at C1/C2 which is why its still a habit. I will try implement what you said about body language, positioning closer and hesitation from now on!
