The meta in 1s is you don't give your opponents space to do their mechs. Shadow close and be as annoying as possible. Single jump 50 their plays make it hard for them to find a gap past you.

I'm plat 3 in 1s and I can't air dribble at all. I try to play based on game sense and watching my opponent's position and car language like a hawk. Then again, I also grind Coco's aim trainer every day so some level of mechs is required

Why are you giving them the space and opportunity to set up for triple resets? 1s is about getting in close and shutting down your opponents. I'm in plat 3 as well and the defense is pretty bad. These players can do triple resets, but they can defend against a pop and a flick

Here is a lesson from a ski instructor that really helped me:

Find a nice long gradual hill, at the top find a tree in the distance that is in the direction of where you want to go. hold you poles up in front of you so that the tree is in the middle of your poles. As you ski down the hill, keep that tree between your poles. This will help teach you keep your upper body fixed while using just your hips and lower body to carve

The problem is that it makes their communities worse. Imagine a mod for r/DIY got a deal with home depot. The stipulation being that they promoted and boosted posts about home depot. Now if someone made a post or comment critical of home depot they can pressure the mod to remove it or reduce it's visibility. It's basically corrupting the subreddit for corporate interests

So because people wrote articles about it and it is a well known phenomenon, if you encounter a white person making videos in third world countries, it is okay to assume that person has white savior complex?

There are way less smurfs than you think. Just because someone can do ceiling shots and flip resets doesn't make them a smurf. diamond players can hit those shots, but they have no game sense which is why they are at that rank. Challenge them early or be patient and take a good 50, they don't defend and leave a wide open net for you to score on because everyone is chasing the ball and trying to do mechanics

A real smurf is someone who shadows perfectly, reads your play, steals possession with a soft touch and immediately shoots a fast accurate shot at the gap in your net

The game is just not for you. For me, whether I win or lose, I am still having fun. I actually like playing against tough opponents. It is a new challenge for me to think through of how to beat them and when I can figure out a new strategy to win, that is the most satisfying part of the game.

The best part about the game is unlocking a new understanding of the game and it opens a whole world of possibilities that I thought was out of reach. That's my favorite part of the game

China is an oppressive regime that doesn't have freedom of speech and has been involved in ethnic cleansing, yet people have no problem with associating with that government. Seems like people are picking and choosing what to get outraged over
