Once I started playing at a higher level in Reflex, I noticed this dodging pattern a lot more. E.g enemy is low on health and you expect them to run to the health pack but the keep faking that they're going to go to it but actually don't then they somehow kill me even though I had a bigger stack. But I've since learned to be wary of that tactic lol.
Played against Rapha last night for fun, and man he does this too, I hate it when players do this. The pace is so fast, if you flick your rockets sometimes you don't see the player go back and forth so you think your rocket should hit or at least splash. You just get destroyed! Awesome video as always.
This applies to any game where you're not super limited mobility wise. You see this a lot in Team Fortress 2, especially from Spies, due to how hitboxes work in that game (you can backstab someone even if their back is not completely turned by strafing this way). Hell, this is even useful against AI in Skyrim lmao dodging arrows in epic fashion.
Holy shit, I noticed your 3rd fake in the first clip but wasn't even thinking about the other fakes. I thought that this only worked on bots but it's apparent that skilled dodges work on players too.
By the end of this year, I am pretty sure you will get 50,000 subscribers. Too bad your subs count grow slowly, but at least it is growing :) You deserve way more! Great video as always my man!
Brandon Key That is actually true. There's a RUclipsr said "It is easier to get 10,000 subs than 1000 subs. It is easier to get 100,000 subs than 10,000 subs. It is easier to get 1,000,000 subs than 100,000 subs."
In ANY games when the biomechanics are good enough you enter the MIND-FIELD territory. That's also why I still enjoy CS1.6. In pubs if you get a 5K strike and there is still peoples on the other team they start to freak out.
The skill is real :) Hey Zy, what FOV do you play with? I'm 110 on UT, I even used to play with 120 but it can be tricky to land long range hitscan shoots cuz everything's so small
I want to pick up this game, I've been watching your channel for months and it looks so fun and unique. Though my problem is, I have a mac. Because of that I've been forced to play a shit ton of TF2 and CS:GO.
Saw this based on your tips #4 video, faking direction is basically juking. Still really fucking impressive though. :D Reminds me of feints from fighting games, Souls like games or even dodgeball and boxing irl. Good stuff. :)
the fastest way to learn this movement is play tf2 mge in the arena: ammomod mge. i played in tf2 alot of 1 v 1 based on movement and when i got into quake i could dodge every rocket from the beginning. in quake its way easier to dodge a rocket then in tf2 due to the high movement speed and low rocket splash. in tf2 you really had to trick someone to shoot into a obvious spot. in quake you can just change direction a split second before someone shoots and go sideways.
Perhaps you can create an advanced how to dodge and aim at the same time for QC. Or an advanced how customize your own mouse settings like a pro; pro players all have there own personal settings; however, average Quakers tend to copy their settings and don't have a clue how to create their own.
damn, i love mindgame stuff like that since i used to play competitive pokemon battling which is all about getting into the opponents head. but of course that isnt fast paced at all
Sanjeet Jain He has a Clan Arena playlist that is way more than settings. It teaches you basically everything, all you need besides those videos is experience.
Just something you have to learn by playing a lot really. Made the video to point out it can be done and is something to be aware of, even from the other side where you have to hit someone doing this. But it's not something that can really be taught or learned through tips. Just have to keep playing.
I wish i could play quake but there is absolutely no servers in South America to play with, and if there is, i can't play well cuz i'm not used to the mechanics of the game like most players are ;-;
And this mentality is probably what prevents you from hitting them still to this day. Do it anyway. How else are you going to learn to hit those rails?
Just like a lot of rails DID hit but missed, because Quake Live net code has some issues. Your brain adjusts to aim where you have to though so it all works out. Kind of.
He's a troll, don't worry about him. A lot of players think that CA takes no skill, and it only matters if you duel. Funny thing is, most high level duelers don't do very well in CA.
Well that's really far from true, maybe at your elo range no one does well, come over to our server with 2200-2400 elo players and see how well they do lol. But I guess if you're not in NA then it won't work that well for you.

That's why u just keep going with the lightning gun, some people are really good at faking rocket dodges but with the LG u cant fake anything
a trick: watch series at Flixzone. Been using them for watching loads of movies during the lockdown.
@Cassius Kashton definitely, have been watching on Flixzone for months myself :)
@Cassius Kashton yea, I've been watching on Flixzone for months myself :)
Live by the shaft die by the shaft
Quake is so cool. Didn’t realize it until this channel though.

You just get destroyed!
Awesome video as always.
get good
You're in no position to tell him that.
Oh, I'll never be that good, but you don't have to be a douche lol.
BTW, Reflex is terrible.
even all reflex players agree
Profanum lmao prof plz

all ca players are fake

DelusionaryKiller hey hey! Do you wanna play duel some time soon? I'm "Tapper" in the duel noob discord
DelusionaryKiller lol I'm 800 elo in Clan Arena so just play me. I'm not gonna be far off from your level

The jukes are strong with this one.

Roy Andersson He was stuck under 1k for about a year. The bigger you get, the faster you grow.

absolute love your videos. Very professional and succinct. Did you back Diabolical and/or have any thoughts on it?
plz make more vids on these tricks
The true master. Keep it up Zy!
Fantastic. I can't wait for more!
please, do more of this :)
outplayed
This is why I take my time with my rockets when I know my opponent is low
In ANY games when the biomechanics are good enough you enter the MIND-FIELD territory.
That's also why I still enjoy CS1.6.
In pubs if you get a 5K strike and there is still peoples on the other team they start to freak out.
Thinking what the other player is gonna do is really useful because all you have to do is react.
The skill is real :) Hey Zy, what FOV do you play with? I'm 110 on UT, I even used to play with 120 but it can be tricky to land long range hitscan shoots cuz everything's so small
Yeah 110 for me in Quake as well... but I think it's different for each game.

I always wanted to know how 2000+ elo player dodge 1700 elo player (me)
Nice vid
i hope u do daily reviews about PCs
Awesome!
I noticed your motherboard is the MSI z170 gaming, do you use the onboard sound? Is it any good?

Havnt watched you for a while, so have u changed ur fav mouse or fk2 still the best?
hey zai can u teach how to play quake and how to rocket jump and all ?
bit of a newbie to the game :(
just watch his playlists such as this vid?
jesse those are pretty old.. like it just shows his settings. not much about the game.. :(
Isn't there still in ingame course that takes you through rocketjumping?
Sanjeet Jain He has a Clan Arena playlist that is way more than settings. It teaches you basically everything, all you need besides those videos is experience.
Hey Zy have you ever played reflex? if so, thoughts?
That's exactly what i need
can you change the gun position?
been playing a while and my dodge isnt always that good against rockets, thanks for the tips
What mouse do you normally use when it comes to playing?
how to make a practise server?
Over 18 years i just found out what this game is
dodging like a madman
were u thinking all of that in those 15 seconds or was it just experience and instinct
Both.
Man, you werent kidding about playing this for over 18 years
See I would of pulled out the gauntlet as that player seems to rush. One pummel bonk then switch back to an rj into some crazy angle.
If he switched I would've changed my dodging and probably rocket jumped up on the platform behind me.
Nice play!!!!!!!!!!
any tips on how to execute it and not be obvious when doing so? I always take a rocket to the face anytime I attempt this.
Just something you have to learn by playing a lot really. Made the video to point out it can be done and is something to be aware of, even from the other side where you have to hit someone doing this. But it's not something that can really be taught or learned through tips. Just have to keep playing.
@@RocketJumpNinja Thanks for responding! I'll continue practicing!
I wish i could play quake but there is absolutely no servers in South America to play with, and if there is, i can't play well cuz i'm not used to the mechanics of the game like most players are ;-;
Which dpi and polling rate you are using on your mouse ?
He is using 1000 Hz, and 2000 DPI on a 1440p monitor.
Noah R Thx
What mouse did you use?
I see what you did there d8p
Oh, I was about to give the enemy the benefit of the doubt but that ping dont lie. he got jebaited.
this only works if the guy cant flick rockets shots
Kinda hard to do with 100+ ping though
exec excuses.cfg
Nice :D
Doesnt really look that obscure to me, but i cant trust myself to hit that kind of rails
And this mentality is probably what prevents you from hitting them still to this day. Do it anyway. How else are you going to learn to hit those rails?
too gud to be him
Exactly how I play in ow
Im not sure to say first or not
DankLynx *first
wow
3:18 that rail didn't hit him
Just like a lot of rails DID hit but missed, because Quake Live net code has some issues. Your brain adjusts to aim where you have to though so it all works out. Kind of.
Rocket Jump Ninja right ok, hope Quake Champions has better hitreg! Keep up the good work mate
9*666* views
this is legit not deep just saying
rocket jump " modern day socrates" ninja deep thinking reverse psychology play. . . . . you just dont get it
all CA players pretend to play
What do you hope to achieve here?
He's a troll, don't worry about him.
A lot of players think that CA takes no skill, and it only matters if you duel.
Funny thing is, most high level duelers don't do very well in CA.
all players dont do very well in ca, its ca
Especially you. I can post screenshots of your scores last night if you really want.
Well that's really far from true, maybe at your elo range no one does well, come over to our server with 2200-2400 elo players and see how well they do lol.
But I guess if you're not in NA then it won't work that well for you.
This is next level cringe
