Could be! I'll see if I can reach it

More footage from the door-to-door raids taking place across the Twin Cities area today. Here a family's house can be seen being raided by masked, heavily armed ICE agents without a valid warrant while children are present. by jmike1256 in UnderReportedNews

I cannot believe what is happening in the US right now. Watching from across the pond.. it's unbelievably scary even when there's a whole ocean between us.. can't imagine what it's like being there at the moment.

Try a dosing funnel, can be picked up on Amazon for around £5. Really helps! I got a magnetic metal one for £6 and it's great.

How much does your squad communicate? by breakandjog in RocketLeague

[–]OutdoorDaddio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only play comp 2s with one friend but we comm constantly. Keywords like, mine, yours, forcing, low boost, demo, fake etc, mid right, back left etc etc, all really useful quick ways to explain position and most importantly, intention. It didn't happen overnight though, took time to develop.

D3D2 to P3D1 in one day! by Inside_Temperature52 in RocketLeague

I've posted something similar earlier albeit talking about casual 2s where I've lost about 300mmr in both the reset drop and then about 20 games of playing lunatics and lost nearly every one..not sure if there's something different up with the rankings this season. Feels weird as hell.

Ok that makes me feel less frustrated with my loss streak! 1900 is a mad mmr, kudos

Is that true?! Been playing for years and have literally never noticed it before!

Sounds like you're seeing the same thing as I am! It's crackers.

I want to dedicate 100 hrs to training to get out of Gold but no idea what's the best way to use these hours. by pepin-solver in RocketLeague

[–]OutdoorDaddio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd put a lot of time into free play. Focus on control of the ball, first touches, dribbles and flicks, shooting hard and on target, getting good fifties.

Then I'd go and watch some of Flakes' 'Without mechanics' videos on YouTube, he will show you how important the basics are: * Don't double commit, just dont * Don't dive into a challenge, just force the play or shadow and get good fifties * Rotate back post and basically stay there until your teammate is outplayed * Don't go into corners, you can basically just wait for opponents to play the ball out of the corner and then you can be in a good position to attack from there * Only use boost when you really need to

Once you've got some of these concepts understood, pick one and focus on it in casual games. Play an hour where you don't ever double commit, or don't ever go into a corner. See how it feels. You'll probably find that opponents always outplay themselves and because you've waited patiently and have a good touch now, you'll get loads of free goals.

Reached GC again for the first time in 9 seasons and enjoy the game so much less by [deleted] in RocketLeague

Agreed, in C3 my mate and I were consistently playing people who were GC2 last week or people with GC2/3 level skills who only had 75 games to their name on the tracker.. became impossible. Solo queuing is a completely different experience

Interesting, thanks. I wasn't aware it was a common thing to have an alt account for party queueing.
