Hey, great video, but I kinda wish you tell people that the GCR program is only for ppl who are 18+ instead of making them join the discord, apply for coaching, then be turned down when they find out that it's for ppl 18+
learning to air dribble despite the mechanic itself not being overly useful lower down it severely helps with air control which follows over to aerials and saves. Otherwise generally just learn car control and flicks
@@big_yeeter2097 then again as you learn these mechs u can also practice other aspects of the game. Furthermore things like half flips might take a few minutes to do properly and a few days or weeks to master.
He was just talking about the Fastest way. Not the best... You get up there quick... But then starting with poor mechs so get stuck. Mechs = slower ranking up... But constant ranking up and your always able to improve on those mechs... Game sense can only get you sofatlr before mechs are needed (to get into positions better or for recovering) Just train both brain and skill
A point starting with "always" is probably a myth. More specifics are needed when explaining mechanics. To get to GC, you don't need to know how to dribble, but you do need to know where to be, how to pass and how to shoot pretty well. Those involve a lot of mechanical movement and practice.
When it comes to party up or solo queue, for me, i mainly solo queue simply bc nearly all my friends who play rl are leagues above me in overall skill level. I keep hitting d1 but loose it quickly bc of this. Another part is that my ability to being 'good' is not consistent at all. Although a lot of times its simply because the opponent is simply better. ... connection is not wired so big lag spike happen in every game.
alot of people say rotation is more important, and i agree, but if it comes to not hitting the ball in the air or not being able to half flip IN GC, mechanics or more like the fundamentals are more important, gamesense comes as you play
@@Meechy44 but most likely you can agree with this. If someone doesn't know how to aerial properly in gc, yes they might go a whole game without doing one but it would definitely be helpful to understand how to. You don't need to know but knowing how to would help alot.
@@Meechy44 Right, but you can probably shoot with power and placement from most positions and you probably utilize some combination of movement mechanics to keep pace. That is mechanics and that doesn't come efficiently from simply playing the game. Your 1000IQ gamesense doesn't matter if you're just going to choke when it's time to capitalize.
Flakes showed that power shots aren't required to reach SSL even. You need the car control to confidently move across the field and follow the ball and make accurate, intentional touches on the ball. Power shots aren't needed if you avoid mistakes, counter mistakes and outplay your opponents.
I’ve got so much synergy built up with my buddy I cannot solo queue at all I keep over rotating and stuff and not able to play off the solo queue but when I’m with the buddy I play with the most stuff just clicks and it’s insane
i know someone that uses default camera settings. he had his own settings then one day said "these are the settings RL wanted me to have so i'll use them" and has been stuck on them for a while now...maybe minus the camera shake lol
I don’t agree with Wayton on having unlimited boost on free play off because in my opinion free play is a place to practice mechanics. Unless you’re using it to memorize where the boost pads are.
If you're playing a decent amount of 1v1 (as you should be, if you're serious about improving) then turning off unlimited boost in freeplay is actually just totally useless.
I think Polar and Wayton would agree with each other, I think Wayton interpreted mechanics as things like air dribbling, flip resets, and musties while Polar was just talking about the fundamental core mechanics like shooting
People keep raising the bar for what is considered mechanics. They seem to forget they when you first start the game, you can barely even hit the ball. No amount of game sense is going to help you if you miss the ball or consistently hit it poorly. That's why coaching bros don't even bother until plat.
@@LiltleGoblinJr2010 It's the reverse. Getting mechanical takes way longer than just learning how to rotate, shoot, and recover. As long as your BASIC mechs are solid, you can get to GC. Not having advanced mechs doesn't realistically hold you back until around GC2
You can be a 1's main, and be mechanically skilled out of your a$$ - still won't mean you play ROCKET LEAGUE well, in the other games modes.. I'm C2~ give or take every season, im not the most mechanically skilled player, i never play 1's AT all. But, i know my rotations well, know when Not to double/triple commit, i look at the game and my teammates, and what they are doing and play Way more patiently because of it. Could i score more goals being able to breezy flick/flip reset on command? Probably.. Would that increase my WINRATE in threes? Probably not.
1s is not about mechanics until the very high levels. It can be if you want it to be, but 1s is mostly about making good challenges and being able to shoot on target. And that's the difference between pretty much every rank until around GC2.
Flakes showed in his SSL without mechanics 1v1 series that reaching the top levels in 1v1 isn't about making challenges. Flakes suggests avoiding risky challenges and not making lots of unnecessary challenges. Flakes suggests keeping in position to cover your net over challenges.
dude watch your replays and grind freeplay and training packs. do NOT pay for his coaching hes gonna tell you the same shit and charge you a shit ton of money
@@LiltleGoblinJr2010 its not about that. I'm not actually expecting anything new, I just need someone to answer to. same as a gym membership, could do all of it from home but don't have the routine and motivation. Also I'm old, and freelance, lots of free time and cash.
@@BuzzaB77 if you like burning money then do your thing but its a waste of time ive hit ssl every season just watch your replays when you lose and grind freeplay and training packs nothing else will help you but like i said spend your money as you wish, have a good night
My platinum friend tried my control settings. After a day he went back to default settings and says it’s better. But I think that’s because my control settings are so different than the default. It’s just to much to learn at the same time. Any tips to let him learn better controls?
I'm a GC who can air dribble okay, I hit slow and ugly double taps every once in a while and I can get a reset on the ball but never actually get anything useful out of it. Half flips I've had down since they first were discovered though. Can't really Musty consistently, but I've hit a breezi once, in freeplay. 😎
What do you mean by mechs? If you mean good shooting and good movement, then you're right, there's nobody in GC who doesn't have good shooting and good basic movement. If you're talking about air dribble flip reset, there are tons.
Can you give Luke a lesson or two Wayton! he was spreading the misinfo in a recent short to new players that tornado spinning was "the fastest way from A-B" recently.
Which video was that? I can't remember him ever saying that. Infact I've seen loads of his videos saying people air roll too much and the fastest way from a to b is the minimum air roll movement and then a straight line to the ball. Also heard him saying the best way to correct yourself in blackout moments of air roll is to tornado spin. But I've never heard him say what you say he said...
@@BuzzaB77 If you look carefully. Although it's cut and edited at the wrong times. He is talking about going in different directions. Not just going pin straight. That is why it's faster if you're moving in that direction.
@@helfieldgaming117 yeah I understand this is a bad clip, its completely out of context, and that's why I made the comment, because there are new players here in the comments now asking if they need to tornado spin on every arial, and I even had a full argument with another guy who insisted it was a tutorial about speed flipping! I understand there is one mid air directional change that this benefits but its not made clear at all. the clip is actually worse than useless, its confusing new players without the context. And it sums up my main criticism of Luke, it's information that needs to be ore than 60s long, but he's made a short of it regardless, spreading misinfo through lack of context just to meet his short video quota, or maybe it's deliberate so confused newbies will sign up for the course in order to get clarification.
@@BuzzaB77 most of his shorts are taken from his longer videos if you want more context on this short you're probably going to find it in his newest long video. If people want to improve they're gonna have to realise you have to seek the information and practice not watch 60sec shorts and think that that's the be all and end all on that subject.
In 2's, deep in the net (back side) is always better. More momentum on the ball vs back post. Don't forget the shallow rotatations that cause half of the goals in mid Champ. Watch airchargedrl if you want proof.
The thing is, mechanics take a lot of time to learn, and aren’t used very often. Gamesense is faster to learn and is constantly used. Imo the best way to rank up is learning gamesense + aerials, then some more advanced mechanics in champ
OK GOT IT SO!! long story short fastest way to rank up is have good positioning and rotations and learn the ability to score on your own in 1v1 bcuz your teammates cant score for shit and you're the only hope of winning for ur team unless ur playing with ur friends on smurf accounts 😂 bcuz everyone's a GC now in the low ranks Mr. Spook you taught them well on how to smurf with undercover pros on smurf accounts 4 a title but not develop the skills of a real GC player now we got Npcs in diamond and champ lobbies rocking grand champ titles and they play like doggy doo thanks coach appreciate it
dont listen to these clowns you absolutely need mechs. if you want to rank up fast head in freeplay DO training packs and rewatch your replays. you WILL plateau if you dont. you dont need to be a freestyler but them saying you dont need mechs is a blatant lie.
Depends on what you mean by mechs. If you're talking about shooting, basic aerials and recoveries and stuff you're correct. If you're talking about air dribble flip reset, there are plenty of GC1s who can't do all that. They start to get filtered out in GC2 though
Game sense and basic mechanics are a deadly combo

I think having a few mechanics will make you rank up faster than not having …
Absolutely, but people overrate getting mechanics. Basic mechanics can get you to Diamond if you're good in other places (SSL for a few people too)
Not necessarily cause you have to learn those mechanics and that takes a ton of time

Yea gamesense and making quicker decisions come with experience, so as a newer player you should def focus on the fundamental mechanics
