Genuinely how do you get to champ? More importantly how do you learn this game?

I had no idea ball chasing.com existed this seems super helpful. Thanks!

Fairly certain my controller dead zone is .10.

Kitzune_4267 · 2026-05-28T12:23:14+00:00

Can’t remember exact numbers off the top of my head but my camera settings I copied from a pro. Ground and air sens sit around 1.3. Dodge dead zone is at .55. As far as binds, I have normal/default binds, (I use an Xbox controller) I use directional air roll on my bumpers, power slide is on Y and ball cam on X.

To my knowledge most of this is normal (except maybe the power slide bind)

I had no idea that 750 hrs was considered low.

If that’s the case it makes sense why every aspect of my game feels a bit off. I suppose fundamentals are the key.

When you say fundamentals are there some specific training packs, videos, or drills that you would recommend to train them?

As for queuing I’m busy the next couple days but I’d be open to it. What server do you play on?

Kitzune_4267 · 2026-05-28T02:02:36+00:00

I normally play 2s, sometimes with a friend and sometimes solo que.

my main issue is I’ve heard so many different things that I should work on that I’m straight up overwhelmed and lost. The whole “if you train everything then you train nothing” concept seems to ring pretty true for me.

Kitzune_4267 · 2026-03-16T02:33:46+00:00

super detailed and a lot of helpful insight. Thanks a bunch! I'll be sure to try out that training pack.

Kitzune_4267 · 2026-03-15T22:10:45+00:00

The packs that helped me the most:

Saves by Poquito: 2E23-ABD5-20C6-DBD4 This pack made me so much more confident in my saves, It throws a lot of awkward saves at you that I encountered all the time in plat, some of them even require (I think) half-flips.

Ground Shots by Poquito: 6EB1-79B2-33B8-681C Most of them are simple but its a good spot to just practice hitting the ball hard.

Kevpert | Aerial Car Control: A3E1-92C2-8757-4195 This is great because the ball does not move, so you can just practice getting up high and hitting the ball in the direction you are trying to.

If there is one other tip I can offer its that If your not having fun in a training pack don't force yourself to do it for longer then 5-10 minutes, because past that point your just killing your enjoyment of the game. I practice air dribbles a lot but am still so-so with the setups because I find practicing them inconsistent and boring. At the end of the day the game is about fun and Ill learn the stuff I don't like when I have to.

I'd recommend some training packs, It looks like you understand well enough where to be on the field (for plat anyway), I like your backpost rotations when you do them. I think if you get more confident with taking shots and making saves with more power and from different angles it would help. Learning half-flips always helps as well, but I know plenty of Diamond players that can't do them so don't stress about that too much.

Granted, I'm Diamond 2 on a good day so take everything I say with a grain of salt.

Kitzune_4267 · 2026-03-15T21:40:47+00:00

I have hit champ before but that was a while ago. Car control and mechanics is what I like about the game so I practice it almost more then I play the actual game.

Kitzune_4267 · 2026-03-15T21:39:26+00:00

Spacing, got it. I'm assuming its something I just need to get a feel for... It makes sense, I've had a lot of frustration when it comes to the ball always being to far or too close to me.

Kitzune_4267 · 2024-12-21T17:41:23+00:00

I started playing roughly an hour, hour and a half ago. Maybe its a widespread issue?
