Watching Dark speed boost the side walls is wild. Didnt see it much here but thats his signature style. Dark plays like a Plat with SSL mechanics when it comes to 2v2s.
Nah he doesn't play with ssl mechanics, he plays with Dark mechanics 😂😂
Yeh he isnt really intrested in trying anything team related 😅
@@IceIrdna we just have to finish letting him cook
lots of saudi Arabian players grind just 1s
@@CiriRL When he's ready to go pro he'll start running 6mans and comp 3s more
The big difference between Zen’s mechanics and Dark’s mechanics is the pure consistency in Zen’s style of play vs Dark’s. Zen seems like he always gets the best touches possible and uses them in the most effective and efficient way. Dark is more flashy and risky, but the has errors which he makes up for with speed. Which if his opponent is aware of how fast he his, Dark usually has a bad time.
Thank you for coming to my tedtalk :)
Agreed, IMO its not even close. Dark is super fun to watch but many of his "mechanics" are completely unnecessary like hes just trying to go as fast as he can 100% of the time...and many times he doesn't seem fully in control. No knock on him either, hes super fun. Also remember every Zen clip in this video is against a top 15 1's player. Dark is playing good players but not the level of the players Zen clips on.
Exactly...the rlcs showed exactly what youre saying in this comment imo
very true
there’s no rocket league player who isn’t aware of how fast dark is💀
so u r basically saying zen is smart n dark is mechanical, because being effective and efficient with mechanics is like 25% mechanical ability and 75% game iq
Dark is more of a freestyler while zen is smarter with plays.
I would really be interested in watching a best of 7 zen vs dark
Zen at his best skill level while dark has improved massively in game sense or smarter than what he is now.
it really won't be, dark is losing to d tier 1v1 players, he beat daniel once a year ago hen daniel was at his low.
@@HyperNinja917 I'm talking about when dark gets better at the game. Smarter at what he does in 1v1s. If they were to 1v1 right now he would obviously lose. The main thing he lacks is just being smarter with his playstyle because in the 1v1s he loses its because he goes for stuff at the wrong time like a freestyle or ball chasing.
@@HyperNinja917I haven’t watched rocket league since like 6 months and he lost to flakes lmao 💀💀💀
Zen in 4
No game closer than 4 goals
@@HyperNinja917that Daniel game was a complete fluke. If they played again right now it wouldn’t be close in Dan’s favor
Dark is the better freestyler

@@nwar_he’s not the better player. Zen is the best in the world LOL. Dark is fun to watch but Zen is facing people in rlcs and making it look easy.
Zen has better mechanics and is a better freestyler lol
I knew DARK was insane, but THIS IS SO INSANE. I cant belive, that that was one game
This was how Dark used to play. Dark's playstyle has immensely changed over this 1 year you need to watch any of his recent showmatches. Bro is probably the fastest player youll see and still does these insane freestyles at like mach speed.
But it's against very low level ssls if he went against zen he'd get destroyed
@@23brock yeah he'd prolly get destroyed against zen but he isnt doing this stuff on low lvl ssls. the opponent in this vid is ivn who is a top 1v1 player and dark has even beat the likes of Daniel using this playstyle.
dark is top 100? thats not really low level
@@23brock
@@sphjnx--4326 compared to pros barely top 100 is terrible he'd get destroyed by any pro 1splayer
@@23brock his show matches prove you wrong
I think Dark is a pusher of the game like trying to test the limits more than trying to win matches…if you watch his games he is pretty careless on open nets and defense…the last session I saw he is chaining wave dashes like a crazy animal
Yes you got it exactly he isn't trying to win if he was he'd have to stop using a lot of his mechs
Dark also was beating pros in show matches too for a while which was ridiculous
But If he tried now he's getting destroyed
@@23brockyou never know
@ashkanmohammadi4966 I do know lmao he loses to d tier players
He wasn't though. I think the only top tier player he has ever won against was Daniel. His showmatch history is a complete disaster.
This is incredibly incredible I thought i've seen it all but dark and Zen oooohh man that is one duo. If these 2 merged i would only image my existence literally Dark. Huge thanks for this video Tenacity I wish I could have been at your stream when this happened but had school. of course guy like me would die to talk to a cool guy like you. My favorite chill rl streamer.
This is my first time replying to a video like this i finally found out my google password.
@@user-uh3ub9wp7lcongrats on remembering
I honestly enjoy the in depth explanation of each of these shots.
The guy at 0:18 is a different Dark lol, not the Saudi Dark(?)
now i wanna see gameplay of the other dark
Zen: Brain and freestyle
Dark: Freestyle yolo
Dark: YOLOOOOOO!
But zen can switch up play styles a lot faster and easier than dark, but I would love to see these two against each other
Watching Dark 1v1s is actually one of my favorite pieces of content to watch. He’s so fun to watch and he always challenges himself, sometimes doesn’t even take an open goal. This is sometimes his weakness in getting top 100 but his gameplay is fun to watch.
The fact he is just 15… he could a pro and one of the top 1v1 in the world in a couple years no doubt. I think if Dark took top 100 seriously and didn’t go for a risky shot every time he could make top 10 no doubt.
I feel like Dark is just playing to have fun and plays in auto pilot, pure muscle memory. He still takes crazy bad decisions sometimes when you watch some gameplays.
Obvious that he is young, he'll grow up and see the game differently in a few years, very great potential for competitive scene, if he's up to
I think you're the first person to mention angle and momentum for a pogo. 👏👏 Wayton about a year ago said the bounce is random. It's not.
4:22 got lucky enough to match with Squishy and Fireburner at like 3 AM around 3-4 years ago and Squishy hit a shot just like this. Just wanted to take a moment to appreciate how ahead of the game that man was back then.
I’m so hyped for the future of competitive rl cause if all these younglings are gonna be pro it’s gonna be a highlight reel all the time
I remember watching a stream/video whereby scrub got pogo'd on about 5 times. It truly was a beautiful sight
I was waiting for this Video so badly
Bro ready for a big meaty sausage in that thumbnail 😂
5:38 he got that much power with the flip reset because he wavedashed in de ball, you can slightly see it but def hear it with the video audio
Dark is 15 ?! I thought he is just a 20 year old CCP, but damn in like 2 years he could compete with Zen if he's getting more consistent and play 2s and 3s
Different dark there 2 of them, dark and dark ?
There is only 1 dark u prolly thinking bout drku@@robwestb02
4 resets in ssl comp is WILD
I’ve always wondered about this question ever since i have heard of zen.
when u were explaning the pogo u sounded like my teacher teaching math lol
"Oh and then he goes for the double." 😂
I can’t wait to see Zen and Dark 1v1, that is gonna be crazy 🤣 btw, Dark streams on Twitch.
Zen would dog walk Dark in a show match lmao
I would bet Dark can't even score 1 goal in some games they play, Dark is barely top 100 in 1s, he consistently loses showmatches
@@andrepires3475 Saying he can’t score at least 1 goal is a little dramatic, but Zen would probably win. It would still be fun to watch though.
@@scepterlit Dark has been DOMINATED by other worse players than Zen that are 1s mains, thats why i think Zen wouldnt let him breathe in a 1v1
@@andrepires3475 Still, Dark could score some goals, he isn’t completely helpless. You gotta give him some credit.
Wall to air dribble, double flip reset, pogo, musty is absolutely insane to hit once, never mind having the capability to hit consistently
Watching RUclipsrs glaze skilled RL Players will always be funny
I have played against dark in a 3v3 game when he had ixkillerx and a guy i didnt know on his team and we actually won quite comfortably. i have also come across him in 2s both with him and against him hes really consistent, fast and so mechanically skilled its crazy
I would really love to see a Zen vs Dark game, oofffff, just for the show, lets see what happens
The scary part is that the clips from dark were from 1 year ago. Where he's mechanics could be now...
the glazing is insane ongg
Dark = mechanics
Zen =smart plays
Not really. Players with smart plays are more like people as flakes or jack. It’s just that compared to the flashier plays of dark, zen’s are not quite as bold, but still *highly mechanical* . He does mechanical things in difficult places and that’s what makes him great.
@@Gimmy27Zen is a smart player LOL. He would be in RLCS if he wasn’t. U don’t know anything.
@@munster7349 well duhh you could say that for every player that’s in RLCS, but that’s not what he’s known for.
@@Gimmy27 He’s known for doing smart plays LOL. And insane plays. Zen is probably the most smart and insane player in rocket league right now. U saying he’s not smart is just a lie. Flakes can’t do what zen been doing or he would have been doing it. Zen is in a league of his own. Aka being the greatest.
Zen’s mechanics are also insane
I need to see this now irl
darks new play style is ridiculous in all the right ways xD ive seen one of his show matches with the playstyle and dude is at supersonic for 95% of the game
as someone who would call himself a freestyler, the pogo under the ball is called a plan-B. the one that pops the ball by doing the pogo directly under the ball
Difference is Zen is doing this in RLCS grand finals on the biggest stage.
Literally none of these clips were from RLCS lmao , he very rarely hit anything like this in RLCS for obvious reasons
Honestly, I don't know why many people hype up one person. Zen is just a regular person with Rocket League weaknesses like everyone else.
so agree lol, it's annoying seeing everyone glazing zen
i'd like to see dark and zen play 2v2's with each other
I wish you were looking at the more recent Dark videos tho, he is even better now.
Dark on Rule 1 Would Be INSANE!
when Tena says "dark" in the beginning of the video, the guy the editor puts on the screen is not the Saudi dark. just letting u know xd
To answer your question in the title. Its zen
ofc you need to do more ;)
Imagine u go into a 2v2 ranked game and dark and zen are on the other team
Please we want more
I think zen and dark need to have a freestyle competition or play horse. I’m pretty sure zen can actually do most of what dark does pretty consistently as well but probably not QUITE as consistent. Zen is very freestyle - esque tho
You need to watch dark’s newer clips, he’s a wave dash/zap dash maniac
What i will say is that i have seen both play and i personally believe that zen is the more game sense player. Zen is very consistent and has great mechanics and insane control but his game sense combined with his mechanics and control is what makes him so good. Dark on the other hand is extremely mechanic and not just mechanic but so so consistent with those mechanics. He could probably hit shots like that with his eyes closed however when i have seen him play ones he will be a bit more agro. Dont get me wrong hes one of the best and his games sense is still way better than a lot of the player base but you cant pick a better player when their playstyles are so different.
Zen simply has different plans and knows what he’s going for while dark just goes up and tries to do his thing
That is old Dark. You should watch him zoom across the field now. The guy is a wave/zap/wall/ceiling dash machine. This is wild. This is the future of rocket league. Hes not the smartest on the field and he does not care. All about mechanics.
I just realised the dark I played with years ago is this guy
Dark's vid was a year old. Hes been prerfecting dashes and speed recently
I think it is a question of what mechs means. Because Zen can turn any set up into a gross play. He is comfortable no matter where the ball is, he just makes magic out of nothing. Dark is great at playing his version of RL. Super mechy, if he is in the air with the ball he is going to peak on you, but he relies more on decent set ups and he is more likely to overcommit to bad offense. That is my initial take before watching vid
they should do a zen vs dark 1v1 but they both play on au servers
The thing about zen is he is efficient everything he does is for a reason, he isn't going for flash but he is thats how good he is, dark on the other hand goes for the crazy shots while he is consistent with them they are not always needed, i think zen could easaly be as consistent or more if he was going for shots like dark.
Imagine if dad and zen was on the same team
Both of them looks like they're stuck in animation. They go up with the ball and it just flows
My all time favorite Player is Novel. The one and only ceiling shuffle Goat.
I want to see Zen and Dark play twos together and theyre only allowed to do passing plays lol
Imagine pro Rocket League in a few years🤯⚽
WE NEED A DARK VS ZEN ASAP!
Zen uses 100 boost to do from the ground to ceiling pinch double tap, I use 100 boost to get to another 100 boost pad.
You need to see the newer Dark, his recoveries are insane now
Both crazy. Dark would have a tough time in 3's I feel like. Compared to Zen, obviously I am no where near either.
At 1:50 to 1:55 in the video tenacity sounded exactly like musty
imagine dark and zen on a rlcs team
Yoooh but I think not cause the language
Dark isnt rlcs ready i think, he play only 1s and is inconsistent because of his speed
(But in 2 years that could be dangerous af)
Bro dark is always going to use his mechs and give it to h9 oppents
@@Sky-Adri hes def not good enough to be even top 10 EU or NA, but if he gets consistent with dashes, he may be dangerous like you said.
Who’d be their first man?
Can you make a vid of the new aftermarket
look at the clips from dark vs Daniel
Zen vs dark would be insane
fisrt pic isnt dark(?) its dark from na btw :D
Idk if that picture is dark tena
i dont know much about rl scene im new here but i think zen used to be a freestyler too? dark has crazy potential imo
i fw his zap dash and wall dashes
zen was never a freestyler, there was a oceani zen.
Naw it was different zen but zen was inspired by the freestyler one the original one quit and now is a apex player
@@metrobeboomin ohh. makes sense. thanks for the info
@@HyperNinja917 i see. thnx for the info
@@psuedotoxin no problem btw I thought the same untill I did research
I expected: WHAT IS UP RUclips...
Tenacity should run up showmatches
In a similar way fear/johnny does it
I mean BROTHER are you kidding me
Hello Tenacity!
this guy did a cover of “feeling whitney” by post malone in a pickle costume?
And i played with dark private freestyle he is insane pogo with flip at the same time insane player
I finally watched this... btw everyone the title is "Who has Better Mechanics?" not whose better overall. IMO Dark has better mechanics because he can do things at a faster pace than any other players and do it... semi-consistently, which requires a high mechanical ceiling and on top of that does a wide diversity of shots and well known freestyle playstyles. While Zen is Mechanical and consistent... I just don't see how the two could be compared because Zen doesn't freestyle... he doesn't have a "flashy bag" like Dark and keeps it simplistic (freestyle pov simple), though, Zen has other things to focus on like instead of being highly mechanical... working with his team and improving various things... Zen is the better overall player 3s, 2s, not 1s though but that is 2/3 categories.
You have to look up a newer dark video, his recoveries are getting nutty too
dark on a team with two smart & solid players is probably a top player in the world. not to mention dark is known for experimenting alot, especially in ranked, so we can only imagine how good he is when hes playing smart and going for shots that he's consistent with.
Bruv called Ivn some joesmow...
sorry i’m not caught up wit rl, haven’t played since like 2020-2021… are dark and drku the same person?!
Idk
Nah they're not the same person drku is from england
No dark is a saudi player I think he is 15 or 16 years old and drku is brutish I think
@@aysamalmashni572bruhtish 💀💀
I wanna see zen and dark 1v1.
tancity my man, you didnt finish your research, dark is a dashing mad man. He dash on the wall to and get the perfect resets.
watch a current dark video. he's into dashing now. its insane
Dang I didn’t know I was in this
You should watch joyo's compilation
I could only dream to be as good as dark
I never comment on videos... you gotta do more of these...
Darks best shots are gon a be better, zen is so dangerous beacuse of his game iq mixed with his mechs. Dark just goes for ridiculous shit.
FEERRRRRRR WHERE IS DARK VS ZEN WE NEED IT
He should join rule one
Subbed
2:40 its Plan B ;)
Hey Tena you are amasing
if glazing was a peson
