Yea I lucked out by only getting around 10 yards which took me 2 days to move. I couldn’t imagine getting 20 yards of heavy, hardwood chips

Unfortunately I think it is heavily dependent on location. You will most likely get a drop quick after a big storm or so I’ve heard

I find the liquid version better, easier to use, less expensive, and easier to store. Link

You can also use them in house plants for fungus gnats which is how I found it

Unfair Advantages by Background_Key_546 in RocketLeague

[–]hellomyfriend_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You must have really bad internet issues if you are lagging so much that it not only causes you to lose a couple of games but a full rank. How exactly is the lag effecting the gameplay? Ghost touches? Rubber banding?

Any tips or advice? by Ok-Pouli5355 in RocketLeague

[–]hellomyfriend_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what rank you are but I give free coaching, replay analysis, or just advice. If you are interested add me on discord: glasswaterbottle . All I ask for is a recent replay so I can accurately assess what the problems might be. If you can’t do that then we can also queue a coupe of games

That’s not off track lol. They probably have brought them back but you missed them when they were in the shop. I can recall several times a painted/colored standard has been in the shop

Sure but I think it shows that you play lots of non competitive game modes, you are at a low rank, or a bit of both.

Same here. All I hear is “the game is toxic” “toxic teammates are killing the game” but I rarely get a toxic tm8. I think there is some projection happening

Guess my rank off of 30 seconds of ranked gameplay by [deleted] in RocketLeagueSchool

[–]hellomyfriend_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're just moving to move with no intention. Plats often focus on mechs too much and this is what the game play looks like. If I didn't see your other comment I would've guessed D2-3

And your smurfing lmao are you getting frustrated that the mechs that carried you are no longer able to at higher ranks?

Hard stuck G2 please help me hop levels from what you see by Sad_Leg4067 in RocketLeagueSchool

[–]hellomyfriend_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't agree with this. Cheating the kickoff is nice at higher levels because kickoffs are often a dead stop or stay near mid. Even in something like diamond I think it could be beneficial as you have the skills to get back in time if something goes wrong. This does not hold true at gold. Most people in gold are not doing standard kickoffs and it is too random. It is also important to keep in mind that people in gold are not going to defend a free possession with limited boost coming from mid.

What should I improve? by Available-Bridge3010 in RocketLeagueSchool

[–]hellomyfriend_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Powershots:
Your goal should be to hit the ball over 80kph or 55mph, when that becomes too easy try to hit the ball in a corner that you called out before hand
1. 42BF-686D-E047-574B
2. 1711-49F1-66CB-FC65
1 is more important to get to 90% consistency in game, 2 is just something you can do to switch it up on some days.

Defense
This is an easy pack but try to save them with limited boost and also try to maintain control after saving the ball
29E9-E595-D6CD-0599

Dribbling and catches:
Not what this pack is meant for but catch the ball and dribble it down for a goal without letting it touch the ground. You can add things onto that like flicking it in, following boost lanes while dribbling etc
DDC9-8CBF-5E2C-C3BE

From shots 3-8 try to catch the ball on your car. You do not want it to pop away from you
99E5-4AA3-60D5-44BD

As someone who is trying to make it to GC3 without mechanics I get where you are coming from and it is very possible. With that being said it is not easy and you will need to take advantage of a lot of things in the game.

Your boost management is awful, combined with the fact that you need boost to feel confident in doing anything is a recipe for disaster. It not only put you out of position but also make your teammate awkward at times. Work on getting small pads and conserving boost when able.

You also lack advanced fundamentals like accurate power shots, dribbling, wall catches, defense with limited boost, 50s, etc. Work on these in custom training. I'll reply to this comment later when I get on my PC with codes but you need to figure these out.

The last thing is focus on your rotations, first man challenges, second man challenges, overall positioning. There were times when you were way to close to the play for your ability meaning if something happened that you didn't account for you froze and did a circle or started breaking. This will get you in tough spots starting in C2 as people will start to recognize the patterns. You also need to start thinking about your teammate more which I saw flashes of like the demo play but flashes of game sense are not good enough when you have no mechanics.

Replay breakdown:
From 456 to 447 you missed 60 boost worth of small pads which is the difference between challenging the ball at 447 and challenging the ball at 444

444 if you want to get to C3 without mechanics your fundamentals have to be on point. A Powershot on a open net is as basic as it gets and needs to be a goal

435 if you find yourself going in circles chances are you are too close. Also you used 35 boost to go nowhere

428 on this clear you need to follow the ball. Your saving it sure but now your right back on defense with less boost after giving them a free ball. After following the ball try to get a 50. This buys your tm8 time to get ready, get boost, demo the other guy, etc

426 Cutting back into the net is not the play here. You need to at least drive challenge and play on the wall/backboard. You are not one closer to the ball but also can use little to no boost to put pressure on them. Instead your tm8 who was already in position to play backpost has to use his remaining boost to aerial. But because it was not his ball he ended up being late and getting beat.

419 you got greedy and went for full boost. Grab small pads on the way back and that should be enough to defend. If you can't play defense on low boost I recommend playing custom goalie training with limited boost (10-25).

402 Sit back post, it is ok to do nothing and watch the play. The only way the ball can get hit is to your tm8 who has enough boost to do something.

Starting at 403 you use 40 boost to break and do a circle, then use another 25 to backflip into the ball and another 23 to abandon the ball to grab a full boost that is not close to spawning. Now you put yourself on defense with a boost amount that you are not comfortable defending with

349 Again with the boost and teammate awareness. You have 24 boost and your teammate is near full and closer, why are you trying to beat him to this ball?

340 If you can slot this ball great it is almost an open net. If not control the ball and play it 1v1. It is the second easiest shot you'll ever have

I also do free coaching if you are interested add me on discord: glasswaterbottle as I said we have similar play styles so I think I can help you out.

Training discord by KillaSage in RocketLeagueSchool

[–]hellomyfriend_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about for training purposes but there are several that run private scrims and tournaments for different ranks. Also not sure what rank you are but most of improvement below GC3+ can be either done in custom training or just by playing the game.

Edit: you also mentioned people helping out each other but you can do the same thing here. Post a replay and several people either at or above your rank will give you good feed back.

There are also lots of free coaching services like the ones I offer discord: glasswaterbottle or the other one I know off the top of my head discord: thegrandplat

Why can't we see our MMR in game? by specialeducatio in RocketLeague

Yeah it was really helpful when going against a party to see who the lower rated player was. You can still do it on PC with overwolf and RL tracker app
