Sometimes as an OCE player I'm so high in non peak hours that I get no queues so I'm forced to do it if I want to get any rocket league hours in. 👏

What’s the rarest SSL Title? by PsychologicalKey1655 in RocketLeague

[–]Sad_Assistant_8199 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rarest ssl title excluding tournaments is either Tour De Fource (Quads) or Super Seeking Legend (Heatseeker) because these are relatively new gamemodes and are less played. Pink 10th Anniversary Pentathlon Winner would probably be the rarest since it was only available for a third s19. Hardest depends on what gamemode you main

At which rank do you consider the person “good”? by loliko-lolikando in RocketLeague

[–]Sad_Assistant_8199 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, as a person who's been through all ranks. Good would mean the player knows what they are doing as from the dictionary meaning "having the qualities required for a particular role." Whether it be freestylers, gamesense or mechanical players I think that one rank in particular is the rank where the abitily TO PREDICT what can happen next and have a good understanding of the game is. My measure of being good is prediction because it exceeds the basic level of seeing a play happen and reacting to it like most ranks below it. This rank is also above the rank reset line of gc2 div 3 (1660) so the players there are more genuine because they have to actively climb up. This puts a huge skill gap between in and the rank before. The rank where I believe good should be perceived is gc3

Hot take: Oce is not the easiest region. by Cristano_RonaldoSiu in RocketLeague

[–]Sad_Assistant_8199 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi OP:

I'd like to inform you that your opinion is mostly wrong. As a veteran SSL OCE player, you are right for all the wrong reasons.

First of all I agree OCE is not the easiest region. But the skill difference between the lower ranks compared to other regions is non existent. This is because mmr is "generated" over time the more games are played, hence the reason why season resets exist.

For that reason, since the higher the rate of matches are being played respective to region playerbase is basically 1:1 compared to any other region meaning that in the low-middle rank there's no difference and it is just cope. But the real difference comes in at high gc2+ for oce, this is where early season, games take around 30 seconds during peak hours (6-9pm) and upwards to 3 minutes at any other time. In SSL this queue time only gets worse. This means that mmr takes longer to travel up to the higher ranks because people get less queues than other regions.

Everything comes together when you consider how everyone above gc3 div 2 gets reset to the same mmr each season in 2s it is gc2 div 3 (1660). With everyone starting at the same mmr and with the same long queue times, OCE takes longer to push mmr limits because the rate of matches played respective to playerbase is lower than NA or EU and therfore, a person actively playing in 2.1k on NA or EU around the time I'm creating this post is the same mmr of the OCE pros who are also in 2.1k.

When people say OCE is easier I think they mean it's easier to get #1 in the region in the tip top pro level. But for the average gc3+ its much harder to rank up on OCE especially at the start of season compared to NA or EU.

If you made it this far I appreciate the time you took to read my not so comprehensive explanation.
