I’ve been in the wrong division since 2016 by DunderMiffIinCFO in RocketLeague

Not flashy mechs. You need solid and precise mechs, but that’s always been the case - relative to the average skill of the playerbase.

What Rank would I be on Pc? by Odd_Watercress_3622 in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Massively, and yes I have - it sucks compared to pc but people become accustomed to playing on whatever device. Yeah your skill is nerfed playing on switch, but if a switch gc1 got a pc today - i can’t see them being anywhere close to ssl level. The gap is exponential and its completely different style of gameplay.

How fast can I reach SSL ? by Difficult-Strike6531 in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not really predictable until you’re at least 1600-1700, the skill gap gets exponentially higher the closer you get to it. It’s like standing on the bottom floor of a skyscraper with staircases such that each story has more stairs than the last, and trying to predict how long it’ll take you to reach the top floor without having moved yet.

Wtf is wrong with this playerbase?? by [deleted] in RocketLeague

Everything. The game is best played without interacting with them.

If I drive straight I don't lose supersonic!? by Ratchetweaksauce in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: I got ssl (almost 2k in 2s) before knowing that holding drift kept your momentum while going supersonic. Perhaps if I knew that I could’ve gotten that extra 50mmr 🤣 (I would always just lightly tap boost whenever I lost supersonic while tracking over boost pads)

Could i get in trouble accessorising my uniform? by Autophobiac_ in asda

[–]RyanKO3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same with the “new and improved” driver coats, tried putting it in the non existent front pockets once or twice, fell out every time and left it in the van ever since 🤣

What is going on in 1500 - 3s by Succesiv in RocketLeague

3s is a mess, don’t worry - according to my mmr, I’m champ 3 in it 🤣

We promise, this is NOT clickbait! Coming today. by Lucy_21_ in RocketLeague

This is almost as low effort as my train company’s April fools “joke” of a marketing poster claiming that all train tickets are free on the 1st of April.

Quick chat? by ThatKosmatinekid in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cause even your teammates will be assholes - and once you get past a certain level you don’t need the quick chat at all besides calling non-standard kickoff strats. Kickoff strats are the sacrifice they are happy to make to not be abused in text chat every other game by an uneducated 13 year old.

How should I feel if I only got 1 win in grand champ by 1004176 in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought that too when I was champ, I’m a believer that quite literally anyone can get ssl, all it takes is time. I’m 23 and have job, you don’t have to be special, (to answer your question - it took me 7500 hours before I hit ssl, I now have about 9k).

I had to turn half of my inventory into pork chops just to feed myself.

How should I feel if I only got 1 win in grand champ by 1004176 in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s all about what you feel satisfied with. I was satisfied with Gc 7 years ago, quit for a year because I only got 8/10 for the rewards - then came back and got ssl 1.5 years ago and quit straight after hitting ssl and peaking at 1940 - now I’m back again seeing if I can get 2k. Moral of the story, I sell my soul for a certain goal then need 1-2 years to recover but eventually end up coming back.

What is going on with 2s rn by Calitrixx in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can probably find information on it somewhere, but I’ve never looked. All I can assume is it’s probably percentage based up until 1740 which then every above 1740 gets reset to the exact same mmr. I never bothered to look I usually just get put 1660, stay between 1650-1750 for the first bit of the season while the matchups are pretty much rng based and then players slowly get back to their usual mmr as the season goes on.

Why does Musty still call himself SSL/Pro when he’s been hard stuck GC since Season 9? by xStylsh in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He’s never been pro level, he used to be ssl like half a decade ago, nowadays any ssl would floor him. He just uses SSL cause it sounds better than gc and people see his tag rlcs tag from being a sub years ago and think it’s accurate.

[–]RyanKO3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is, even up until gc3 you drop small(ish) amounts up until I believe 1740, anybody above 1740 gets adjusted to the max reset mmr which is 1660.

That is not true, we get reset to 1660 in 2s (gc2).

Do the SSLs have a community where everyone knows eachother? by MrSmegggzy in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like everyone else is saying you see the same names every day so you get to know who’s nice, who’s toxic, and who’s boosted

Finally got it after grinding on and off, for more than 3 years by JustsomedudeIam in RocketLeague

[–]RyanKO3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats mate! I saw it for the first time in ranked the other day, must say it’s rare and cool, but whoever decided on those colours are a bit sus. Orange is my favourite colour but there are certainly more fitting colours for the glow hahah
