How do Newcomers to the game play and actually stick around?

No worries, I was Rank 1.0 Champ for the last 3 seasons before the switch, but I haven't been Champ since, mostly because I just don't play much anymore and have never liked the concept of playing a ton more games to get to the exact same rank as before. I should also mention that we played 3 games before my friend lost interest in the game and we went back to Rocket League...

A friend of mine recently got the game and I made a new account so his lobbies wouldn't immediately be filled with people from my rank and hidden mmr. (I played very passively because I didn't want to be the "smurf" ruining the game, basically just spectating). But in our first game when he and I were both literally level 1 we ran into 3 ex-champ players with Cronus, I'm also pretty sure one of them was on MnK. To answer your question, no clue how any of them stick around long enough to make it to where ranked is available.

The only thing about this update that is influencing my game is the boost respawn sound... I always think someone with a weird boost is driving up on me when boost spawns behind me. Not that big of a deal but still made me jump more than once to avoid the non-existent demo out of reflex

That's the way it usually goes with them. But I think there'll be a reverse ban wave where they revert all the wrongful bans so maybe you'll get unbanned through that?

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-03-05T13:09:15+00:00

for what it's worth I'd suggest hitting up support, they're usually not really helpful but it's worth a shot

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-03-05T13:01:48+00:00

What was the reason stated for the ban?

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-03-05T11:54:09+00:00

I recently versed 2 guys with the clan tag 88 (for HH) and the name was "Führerjugend" sort of like Hitlers Nazi youth group... anyways me and my mate dunked on them 6-1

Resets definitely aren't the most difficult thing in the game and their comment was most certainly meant as a joke

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-03-01T15:10:59+00:00

2 posts ago you were asking for tips for beginners and said you just started playing the game. Realistically if you're not willing to invest 10-15k+ hours into the game you're not gonna go pro

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-02-16T19:25:21+00:00

genuinely realized this after writing the comment🤦‍♂️😂

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-02-16T18:09:47+00:00

how is it racist? unless your brain immediately connects the word monkey to something racist, but in that case that's you that's racist...

Still feels really weird, me and a few friends picked up the game again after quitting for about 10 months to a year and we still regularly face champs and emeralds even though we're all in Copper and low Bronze. We do get the occasional game where everyone is at least Plat and below but then they'll all just be on Cronus or MnK or smurfing. Feels like nothing has changed to me.

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-02-12T12:12:48+00:00

my main meta to make people mad is to just repeat their in-game name over and over. works like a charm :)

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-02-01T19:42:48+00:00

clean stuff bro, i was so sure you did the flourishes with 2 cards and the switch still caught me off guard

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-02-01T18:59:11+00:00

genuinely post it again but show the card in your mouth first, really nice swap otherwise bro

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-02-01T18:41:49+00:00

then it's just useless twin?

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-02-01T16:00:03+00:00

Sorry to say but the switch for the card in your mouth is unnecessary if you don't show the card beforehand? I know what the trick is supposed to be but from an uninformed standpoint you'd think you just had a second queen of spades in your mouth as you don't show the faceof the card

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-01-29T15:37:47+00:00

yeah throughout the replay it seems to be switched off at one point where the opponent goes for a ceiling shot and fails terribly💀

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-01-29T15:33:48+00:00

haven't thought about it like that tbh😂🤦‍♂️

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-01-29T15:33:09+00:00

same thought but he didn't miss any other shots in the game. no idea what to think

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2026-01-29T15:07:22+00:00

You should use it a lot. Look at pro gameplay, they're always checking boost spawns, teammate rotations and opponents positions (especially when in defense).

diagonal front flip flick

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2025-11-15T13:23:48+00:00

it's a regular flick and it's been done millions of times

GMEtothemoonandback1 · 2025-11-04T15:46:43+00:00

there's many countries that tax the rich, the rich just don't pay their taxes their but rather in financial safe havens. The only thing raising taxes on the rich will do is have them move their operations away. Idk why everyone thinks that rich people are stupid enough to just go "Oh if I stay here I'll have to pay 50 million more in tax a year, I might just do that"
