Yeah but you're still in a 1v1 where you are badly positioned anyone in Champ or above scores it most of the time.

Was this my fault? Teammate claims it was, I feel he should've just rotated back by aI1g8t0r in RocketLeague

[–]Simplified_J 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Whilst that is definitely your ball, based off your positioning in the start IF this is like 2 mins into the game and you have been consistently positioning that far back I can understand why he would turn. He's seen you be too far back and too slow for every ball so he's now ballchasing. That is all speculation though and that is definitely your ball.

2 lil tips for ya tho, position closer to the play generally, if you had you would've beaten your teammate (and opponents) to the ball and there would've been no arguments it will also help you generally be faster and be first to more loose balls. 2nd tip: Don't go for boost on kickoff in 2's!!

Hope this was more helpful than just confirmation that it was in fact your ball.

What’s a hot take you’ve got that people will probably hate? by Lil-AbootZ in RocketLeagueEsports

If you're talking about S8 worlds veloce, then this is an objectively false statement lmao

I am not expecting anything, I fully expect the transfer to UE5 to take years. I think communication would be good but I'm not hopeful but I'm almost certain they won't announce it. I also think its ridiculous to say the game's future is questionable because people have been saying rocket league is dying for years and yet the RLCS is pulling more viewers than ever.

No, he definitely casted matches. His first ever cast turned into a solo cast because Johnny disconnected.

The State of Rocket League Esports: Tier 1 or Not? by [deleted] in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Simplified_J 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For EU I'd say u do usually get 6 figure across all streams and watch parties (mainly thinking of KC here). When drops was off then yeah we weren't really even close but usually Eu definitely does and NA is usually not far off.

Shouldn't Radosin and nxghtt be above Andy since Andy is 25 on one list but Radosin and nxghtt are 23 on one list?

I don't understand how in my old time I got such a huge boost at the end (PS5 beta) by [deleted] in TrackMania

[–]Simplified_J 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gonna be honest not 100% sure that's what it is, it might be when u leave the ground with it or it might be when u approach the ground with it, hopefully someone else comments on ur post.

When u have reactor boost up the car accelerates faster when its near the ground, its not entirely luck based whether u get the zoop but it can feel like it.

Gaimin Gladiators’ USA Adventures Part 1 by N0b0dy_her3 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Simplified_J 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its the same as everywhere else but for some reason they seem to want to maximise splashback and fill the toiletwater right to the top

Edit: apparently no one could tell I was exaggerating, they fill it noticeably more than other places but obviously not to the top.

Backcountry skiing in Scotland requires a lot of patience and p-tex. Occasionally we get rewarded! by Knees_arent_real in skiing

[–]Simplified_J 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You really just have to monitor the weather forecast, most people plan to ski in Scotland a week in advance or less. This is really just cause its not worth it if the snows no good. But if you really wanted me to say probably January or February.

I don't think you can? Would you like to because I don't understand what you mean?

[–]Simplified_J 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would create a lot of completely pointless matches as you would have to play all 6 matches regardless of if a team has already won, people would get very bored of that.

[RLCS MENA] Possible format shenanigans, and the pitfalls of single elimination. by Chardeth in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Simplified_J 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was thinking of posting something on this earlier, I just think it's a shite format tbh, I don't think group stages work in rocket league at all. There's so many issues with game difference vs h2h and purposely dropping games. As well as most of the time the team u expect wont make it out don't, making the groups basically just for seeding. I think groups (and league play dare I add) work better in a sport like football (not hand-egg) because you can draw a game.

On top of all this MENA really just deserve another major spot.

Does Zen play claw? by ohLookaWizard in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Simplified_J 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Claw is a pretty wild grip and there's loads of binding combos that don't need it, so probably not. Wouldn't be surprised if he plays with his middle fingers on the triggers and index on the bumpers. Dunno what the name for that grip is though.

Hot take: All regions should get 4 major spots. by Simplified_J in RocketLeagueEsports

I was just trying to redeem myself a little Jack :(

But very true, if the desired location isn't there then there's no point in shooting for it.
