This is the most important skill in Rocket League. If you master this technique you can save any shot. My whole play style is based off shadowing.
You explained everything perfectly SunlessKhan. I always try to explain it to people when they ask, but from now on I’m going to just show them this video because it recaps everything that needs to be said about shadowing.
:) musty ure voice is so calming and ure videos are very interesting.
Musty DOUBLES please 😁
Hi
I’m subbed

Really good video Khan! I'm champ 3 and even I learned a bit - A few things I would like to add though: Shadowing in 2s with your teammates behind you can sometimes be a good decision, especially if they're just recovering. It's an excellent tool to slow down your challenge so that your teammate is ready to receive the ball if something goes wrong. If you do decide to challenge right away (as you suggest in this video) and you don't win, your opponents will have a lot of time to recover ball possession leaving your teammate in a 1v2 which is not ideal. If you instead shadow and challenge when you know that even if you lose your teammate will be in a position to get the ball, things will go better much more often.
Luke Rutten Good point, shows just how powerful this skill can be with communication as well
You can also slow down the attack with shadow defense giving your teammate(s) the opportunity to take the challenge while you're ready to block the possible shot. If you're not the 3rd man that is. Much easier if you're in comms though. Trying that when solo queuing can be.... difficult 😅
This skill is simple to learn and fairly easy to apply yet so effective. Makes a huge difference in defense. Arguably one of the most important things to know.
Astro. Do you many apply rather than imply?
Agreed. No one seems to have any patience when it comes to defending and go all out on that panic attack missing the ball completely and leaving the goal defenseless
Mexijuan. Do you mean 'mean' rather than many?

What an intro!
Hugz he mentioned my Tina comment xD I love him
i never knew this had a name , i have been doing it unconciusly ever since i entered gold ranks (in 1v1s)
so far this is the best WYSARL i have ever seen and the skech was awesome props daddykhan
2020edit: lol people answering old comments is always amusing, proprs to khan for making something that its still relevant 2yrs later, sadly ive quitted RL... i salute you people still hanging there!
Alaude same bro
Same gere
Same but this video also helped me realize the imperfections I have with my version (I sometimes wait too long to challenge)
Alaude knew
liteton i never realized that mistake!
"Low probability of winning a 50/50"
Make a new series called "Why you suck at math"
The laws of math doesn't work at RL. Your opponent always has a 85% chance of winning a 50/50
@@VictorHugoVideos lol 85 percent chance to win a 50 percent chance challenge

@@elmo93111 I knew it was a joke lmao
please, always use sizz when showing how *not* to do something
seriously this is what your videos are missing
What a brick
Doesn't Sizz play with Rizzo? if so, you should ALWAYS use clips of Riz yelling at Sizz for missing a pass. :P
YES!!!
Seth Friebel xD
thank you. i am currently diamond and i never really thought about looking into shadowing that much, i just sorta do it. but now i know exactly when and how
Same mate
Samsie. Never realized I did it either. Too many times though the attacker gets a flick over you. From this video I learned why, and that’s because the gap between both players is too small. Great stuff Khan 😀
This is helpful I'm champ one but there's a time and place for it. It doesn't mean u suck if you do it.
Haven't even watched the full video yet and this is the best rocket league video ever
AbrahamGamer yea pretty much!
he have more entertaining ones too
@@1996axon oh man I stopped playing rl a while ago, but your reply gave me a notification on this old comment. Oh the good ol' days
These are straight facts, I play soccer irl for my school and shadow defense (pressure, cover, balance) is essential. Applies almost exactly the same in RL. Get it down pat and within 50 hours, you can get up 1-3 tiers in your rank. Once again, Gr8 video Khan!
Basically:
*be a squishy, not a sizz*
nah sizz is a god as well
SunlessKhan omg seth rogen answered my comment
I wished he used rizzo, be a rizz, not a sizz( bit late I know but eh)
@@TheBrunoliz we south americans suck the hardest

Frankly I think this was an excellent tutorial about a skill that is widely ignored at lower ranks, even in doubles where it is exceptionally helpful. Well done again Sunless!
If in lower ranks you mean all the way under champion then yes xd
Yea I think this and rotation are probably the most important things to learn.
Preview trailer of Cars 4
Grand champ and my shadow defence is great in 2s and 3s, but in 1v1 i never think to be on the same half as the other player, or drive towards my front post, and as a result i really struggle against half decent dribblers. Great video! Will take these small details into account!
Daithi i had the same thought.... i gotta try this being on the same half as the other player thing...
Black Tim Howard nothing worse than somebody who thinks they know it all. Arrogance wont make you improve eh
Do more training before you play it really helps. Try to hit insane shots, even if you don't make them just practicing them will develop your skills. I hit diamond at about 4 days played in my first season. Not saying I'm good, but that is what helped me get out of toxic platinum lolol.
The innovative videos just keep coming!
fantastic production once again khan!
Also known as Jockeying in Soccer, but Shadow Defense sounds more epic! And any word with jock in it reminds me of high school gym locker rooms and Icy Hot. :|
Allstar IV hi
Shockwave Hello
Remember me? Also if you do I got to champ!!
I recognize your name, did I send you multiple really long replies? :)
I was going to type that xD It's pretty much exactly the same
What a great video! You deserve more recognition
RIP Stephen Hawking, we truly lost one of the greatest minds. Loved his guest performance in this video as the red car with the mariachi hat.
And I don’t want you ramming each other in your servers!
at least not without inviting me
man i love your editing, been subbed since the start and it only gets better and better. Well done khan
Yo you know you got a good fan base. 208 up like. 0 downlike at time of writing
Most helpful sunless khan video ever, taught me something new
This is by far the most useful Rocket League tutorial out there. So many players don't do this enough and it makes defending a million times easier. Nicely done SunlessKhan!
Doomsee! I like the things you make. And thank you!
Dude, I learned so much from this not just about shadow defense but a bit about rotation too, thank you
No problem!
Great video! Sent it to multiple friends! A few things I feel like were left out as far as benefits to shadowing go. One huge benefit to shadowing is that it is keeping your momentum up, not allowing yourself to be caught in a situation where you are flat footed, that one may be somewhat obvious, though I feel like it important to note as far as a general rule of thumb goes. Second thing I feel like you should be aware of while shadowing, learn to use markers on the ground to know you cars relation to both the wall and your own goal, since your camera will 99% of the time be looking behind you. Learn to guide yourself using the mini boost pads, having this presence of mind is an easy way to rack up 30-50 spare boost for counter attacking in case you lose out on your corner boost after your first defending touch from shadowing. It is also a good way to not take yourself out of the play going for those tasty boost canisters. Great video!
So ive watched many of your vids.. but never subscribed for some reason. But my good man. The intro to this was amazing. Deffinetly subbing now.
(Reminded me odf old machinima days like 2004-2006 stuff)
your content hasn't flagged in creativity, or usefulness. Thanks so much. I had though I was shadowing this whole time but have had my positioning wrong. There are hundreds of times where I have gotten beaten while shadow defending and was unsure what I could have done better. This may be the skill that gets me close to plat!.
I can't believe what an immediate difference this has made in my game... I was on my umpteenth 1v1 loss in a row and I just said "why am i bad" in chat out of frustration. my opponent said "look up shadow defense"... thank you to that guy (whoever/wherever you are) and thank you SunlessKhan!
I never understood before how far to space myself, but that makes a lot of sense- dont give them room to cut the ball infield or across but also stay far enough away to contest a shot or flick
I love your pre-video skits. It’s so great
Great video. The beginning had me cracking up and there is some actual good content in here. Not that I doubted you man....Either way well done, video was put together very well with great examples.
Probably your best video yet tbh. People need to know this especially
You're really entertaining with your videostyle. I really enjoyed watching the intro and the explanation! It's really creative and well done! Thanks alot 😊
I was waiting so long for someone to release another video like this
It's this type of content that makes people subscribe. Keep them coming, please! I can't wait to see this channel take off into the 500k+ subs.
"Low probability of winning a 50/50" -- Well technically........
I've never seen videos this high quality on a channel with less than 100k subs. Take a sub my dude
So many people don’t understand this concept and it’s defense 101 in soccer. You don’t charge a player down in defense and stab at them. You let them slowly gain ground, getting closer and closer until they screw up or you see a chance to challenge safely (preferably when your teammates have gotten behind you)
Coming from a Champion 3, “Shadowing” is used to force the player to make a play. For example they’re dribbling so you’d boost up to them but then turn away quickly so they’d flick the ball. JHZER mentions it in one of his 1v1 videos. In this video I saw it more as correct defence positioning. Great video though! Keep up the good work
your vids are getting more and more creative...love love love them
Loved how you added details for 2s and 3s
Man this series is awesome it’s really helpful and hilarious too keep it up
This was hella usefull man thank you a lot❤️
Definitely one of your best videos to date, Khan! Bravo
I literally love that intro. Very well planned.
Your discussions are always on point, love the channel.
I kinda picked up this thing while playing RL, maybe by observing other do it, didn't knew it was a thing with a name, its good to see it from you, keep it up!
As a DB in football i naturally do shadow defense in 1s, my problem is finding the right time to attack. I often get it flipped over me or i fail to prevent the cut. This video def helps
Love this series and your humor! Keep on going bruv!
really really really great video. super amazing!! imo shadowing and the exact advice in this video is the difference between plat 2-diamond 3. plat 2 and below can certainly do this, but hardly ever think of it. D2 and above people start to perfect it going into champ+
OMG THIS IS PURE GOLD. We Experts and Veterans need these tips to step up to the next level. Friggin Gold league is harder than ever for some reason
I played rugby and American football in highschool and I find it interesting how similar this is to open field coverage, or “man” coverage. When your in a 1v1 situation you have to adapt your defence strategy
yay, I can leave the lobby now!
dude you're the most original rocket league youtuber. im really glad you decided to take "Why You Suck At RL" series from ironic to educative. keep it up
Thank you guy I really love the content, your intros are always laughty but this one is very good
Love this, and often do it (didn't realize it was called shadow defense...just kind of figured out the best ways to defend).
I sometimes do this just instinctly, but I’ll start paying attention and doing it more often. Great video, by the way!
This is a really essential skill to have, yet so simple. Great Video
Great video! Very nicely made
really straight to the point video with little of cool humor, nicely made
This video is so funny, I know how long these videos take to make, Good job!
Great video Khan. Learned how to properly shadow defence now. I'll now implement it into my games in solo and hopefully I see some improvement down the line.
I wish I could be as good as you *INTRO SENPAI*
Great Video Sunless. Great explanation of how to achieve this defense method with practical examples using video clips and even humor to go with it! Awesome! Thank you
The quality of the videos raise exponentially! Always entertaining, and as a champ 1, I learn things easier the way they are put on the video, make me see how ACTUALLY do it and not I think I have to do it.
Extremely helpful vid. Been trying to explain this to a few lower rank friends for a while, but couldn't convey it as clear as you have. Well done.
“Low probability of winning a 50-50” dude it’s a 50-50. You got a 50% chance.
Still the best thing on RUclips. Keep it up Kahn. Love it
The funny thing is that since I started playing Rocket League I subconsciously always defended like this. It's only now that you've made a video about it that I can see clearly the advantages.
This is the best and funniest video I have ever seen in my life!!! Excellent
Awesome video!!! I love this series! It helps me out a lot!!! Keep it up!!!
FANTASTIC Tutorial and very creative way of showing it!
You know what? That last sentence actually got you a new subscriber!
Another great video by the Mighty Khan! I'll be sure to plug this on a future podcast when we talk about RL, which, inevitably, will probably happen more than once! Thank you for such a simple tip to refine the game! Keep the content coming!
Dude I love the set up of the video! So funny and good
I had no idea there was a name for this defense style... I've been doing this for over 1000hrs (nearly at 2000 total, KB/M). It felt like I was watching my own replays in this video, minus the 100% gracefulness ofcourse. I get trashtalked for playing like this even though it works. Great video, Khan!
Just tried the training pack. Gotta say it was a bit of a let down, even though the last three (18, 19, 20) were obviously there to ensure you let a few goals through.... lol
I love the concept of this video. Well done man
Just got into Platinum today from working hard and taking your advice. Thank you very much, and I thoroughly enjoy your videos.
Thanks man!
I like the whole coach thing. Hope to see more of it later.
Wow, the intro 🤝👏
I don't say this often: this was a friggin well made video. Everything about it is just perfect. I definitely learned a lot from this, thank you.
This video is Sarcasm XD , good video man and please keep it up like that!
this was one of the best videos I’ve seen in a whike
Best tutorials and best quality of content I’ve seen on rocket league.
Thanks sunless, your vids are great and extremely informative definitely putting these tips to use.
This changed my life. I did it somewhat before. But now I'm consciously doing this, so much better. Thank you.
All of the things your learning in this video and the rest of the series are things that will come naturally as you progress in rank, so definitely worth checking this out
Production level is OMEGA. Nice vid
You are relatable and I think that's what makes us all flock to your vids. Or maybe it's because I suck at rocket league....
This helps sooo much! Just before I saw this video I was playing some 1s. And I already did shadow defense unintentionally. It's just the best way to save the ball, because usually ur opponent is waiting for you to challenge him early so he can outplay you easily.
Amazing intro, tips, editing. Thank you so much.
Yesssss I've been looking for a training pack that has shots for Shadow defense. Thank you Khan and orange!
This actually is a very informative and well executed video.
This video was really well put together 👌🏽👌🏽
Thanks for putting the code in the description. I love it when people do that. Not so much love when they don't!
Basically be Van Dijk, but in Rocket League
That was the best intro I've seen on a RUclips vid in a while
that last line got you another sub😂
