@@philipeafroboy1 no speaking as a 1900 myself the higher you get the less the gap is because when you get to 1750-2500 people stop caring about rank as much so rank doesn't rly identify how good you are in ssl lobbies
@@flmitchi you may well not care, but it is a fact of the ranking system. 1 point at 2000 means more than 1 point at 1000. It's the same in chess, or any other sport with similar systems.
No plats just ball chasing nubs, that cant do much aerial stuff with the ball, while GC’s can do a lot stuff, but SSL’s are just way more consistent, than GC’s in what they do.
if we put Wayton in the middle of GC in 2v2 for arguments sake he'd be about 1500 MMR, we can safely put Comm nearly top 200 which is about 2000 MMR. Good way to realize this is the 500 MMR gap between them is the same as Wayton to a Diamond 3. I'd love to see this repeated with Wayton vs a 1000 MMR 2s player to see if a 500 MMR gap is represented by total domination in these challenges. Could even repeat with the next gap down which is 1000 to 500 (d3 to g1)
I wouldn't expect the results to be linear. I would expect that the lower level players massively under perform whereas when you get to 1% and higher the difference is much less.

To me the skill gap between every rank is exponential. My friend and I are just casual players, in plat like most of us. We had a string of bad plat tournaments and got demoted to gold and won the tournament with only giving up one goal the whole time. It really is crazy how big of a skill gap exists between ranks
@@marsovac Ya that's an important part some people are forgetting is that the drills they were doing is a fraction of what happens in game. Majority of what makes a good player is how well they get around the map, positioning, bumping, taking away boost, recovery etc.
I've always looked at the skill gap in RL from a soccer perspective. I introduced a mate of mine who had a very short pro career at a low level to a kid who was in a few European academies but had failed to get a pro contract. One thing my friend said to him always stuck with me: "You'd know as well as me that the difference between us and the guys at senior level isn't the skill - they have an edge that you'll find too within a season - it's the mentality. They know that we can do all the things with and without the ball that they can, so they make sure they can do it 99% of the time when they see that we can do it 98%." In other words the top 0.01% will always be in that percentile because the people that have the time, dedication, application and talent to make it that far will always look at what we, the casual players can do, and make sure they do it that little bit better.
I know it doesn't matter much, but any shots like 114.5x are actually considered 115 in the rocket league replay. Taking that into account, both of you had a lot more throughout this series that could have been counted.
Its just cause round it up. But it still doesnt hit the 105 or 115 bar. Loke if you have an exam and you pass from 51% then you will still fail with 50.5%
@@ge-9848 that wasn’t true for me in university. In one of my first year calculus classes I ended with 49.6% as my overall grade, and because the final grade has to round to the nearest whole number it rounded to 50% and I actually passed the course
Tbh, my favorite rocket league moment is when every season is beginning because I've got chance to meet those players destroying GC game and that's so enjoying
This is such a great video idea! I was thinking - could you do a video on the Rank 1 player vs. a lower top 100 player? See what the difference is there?
As a person who doesn't play RL, I think a lot of people underestimate the skill difference between a pro and myself and a small infant and myself. The skill gap in this game is utterly insane.
“The contrast of skill and intelligence between the top 1 percent and the top 0.01 percent is impossible to be visualised accurately and will never be” Albert Einstein
Super cool video and shout out to Comm for doing it. I feel like there is only a select few pros willing to put themselves out there for content like this 👍
you should do a video on what to practice to get from top 1% to .01% as a gc player I would expect the exact same outcome you had and I think that would be a very good video.
It is not that easy man, as comm said, he doesnt do training, why? Because wayton could do almost everything comm did but obviously he was so much better and consistent, thats the thing, you dont practice being consistent or being fast, you just get better with the time
it took me approximately 300-500 hours from gc to gc3 now. i am playing since 2017 and even gc to gc3 is such an insane skill gap. 90% of the improving process is getting better game sense, reading other players and dont throw position too often
The skill gap is insanely vast between the top 1% and 0.01%. Keep in mind that the difference between, say, platinum and GC is much smaller than GC to Pro. You could think of it as "distance" where the top 100% is 100x the "distance" of the top 1% but the top 1% is ALSO 100x the top 0.01%. Its pretty much like a Darksouls NGs... Insane.
I disagree, I think gc to ssl is pretty close compared to plat to gc or even plat to champ. From a consistency and game sense standpoint there are just too many errors in plat games.(From watching replay review videos) Even in this wayton could keep up with comm, a plat is going to struggle mightily to just accomplish any of these tasks I'd love to be proven wrong in an uncut video of all these challenges in sequence. ;) I don't think it would be pretty at all.
@@kaugh Taking in consideration the amount of time reaching top 0.001 % and from plat to GC, then I would say that the time to become in the top will take twice as much time as getting the GC.
@@patriktruong5324 Time is a terrible factor in regards to the top. If it were based on time you wouldn't see the season one elites be mid tier "washed" pros now. They had a headstart in sarp and they'd have a headstart over everyone today, but younger faster, smarter players have risen up, in a short time comparatively. It will take time to reach the top, but time invested where you focus on mistakes, strategy, training will get you there a LOT faster than queing into the abyss with your eyes closed which a majority of the people do, or play to just have fun, which I respect a lot more than climbing a leaderboard. I personally like to laugh while playing whether I epic own goal or do a braindead pinch that goes right in it's all for funzies.
One thing I noticed, that a lot of people will probably feel controversial about, is that Comm saw Wayton’s gameplay before he did it, so he knew what to expect from where the ball is, Comm is better, it just wasn’t as fair as it could’ve been.
Wayton has played those training packs more than Comm has, such as: the shooting map and the other training packs. We know this because Wayton has used those maps before in some of his older videos like his "pro training routine" video. As well as this, Comm said in the video he does not use training packs and even so there would be months of break in between which probably goes for the aim training workshop too. Therefore your argument that it wasnt fair for Comm seeing it happen is completely invalid as viewing them only gives a general sense of what is happening. I would agree with you that it wasn't as fair as it could've been as Wayton knew and experienced those training methods previously and yet still Comm beat him for his first time trying this training method. It is not controversial but fact that viewing Wayton's game play did not make it unfair in the slightest.
4:23, for what Comm said here, I totally agree with that even though I'm a lower rank. But getting your shots right isn't the hardest thing. That title belongs to the dreaded... the terrible... OPEN NET. P.S. I'm Diamond 2.
as a gc who got coached by an ssl ex top 100 i can actually relate so much to what happened to wayton. he beat me 16-0 in our first game played. after 2 weeks of training our last game ended 7-4 for him and i only got open nets after he hit posts really close to scoring an unsaveable shot. so yea this is actually the difference between a gc and .01% in the game. huge skill gap, insane ammount of time between us. have a nice day and good luck to your games guys!
@@GoaterRL More. The bottom 1% can most definitely be scored on straight from a speedflip kickoff. As the timer doesn't start before the touch, it takes less than 2 seconds if executed perfectly. With 2 sec/goal one could theoretically end up 150-0
Look at it this way: You just witnessed the difference between the best out of 100 people play against someone who is the best out of 10,000 people. Let that sink it. Very great showing of such an immense skill gap, great video.
gc is more like 50ish thousand, and maybe it's because I've been above gc for like 12 seasons, but it isn't that hard to get and a lot of gcs are terrible at rotation or terrible mechanically.
This is one of the few games where its actually impossible to beat a higher level player unless they have some kind of handicap. In pretty much any other competitive game, especially first person shooters, someone who is leagues worse than another player still has a chance of beating that higher skilled player
Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20 Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state. “We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.) Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.) Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894) The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed. The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666
@@vayull7163 He mentioned he was a 3's player, I'm a c2 3's player and can very confidently say he'd destroy me putting in a tenth of my effort. The only thing to maybe mention is that this video is very focused on mechanics. Even in pro play some players are simply more mechanically gifted than others, even though they are competing at the same level.
@@DanielRBW True. I'd say the only reason I am good a 1v2s is because the best aspect of my gameplay is my gamesense. I'm not a very mechanical player but I avoid 99% of bumps and will always position myself correctly to deal with 2 people attacking at once.
Its so surreal to hear a pro say. "Flip resets and air dribbles are the easy part" " shooting the ball well is hard" That statement could NOT be more true
When you talk about Power Shots they say you get the fastest shot before the ball bounce, but it counter mechanics because the ball has a mass which means it has inertia, you need to stop it first to change it direction and momentum. so if the ball bounce at you or the ground you need to overcome its inertia. while if you hit it just after it bounce all the energy you invest will go to the ball. the physical engine of the game feels pretty realistic if your on the moon haha, but the concept is still valid . Great video, love the channel, new to the game
As a top tier halo player you might win a 1v1 every now and then the difference is consistency and when you have a team of consistent players the difference widens.
Such a great video to visualize where it is that you need to improve! It's very common to hit GC and become blind to how you can improve. Thank you Wayton!
It's amazing how you think in any game there could be better people than the people that are the "kings and queens" of a game that are on social media platforms.
I hope every gamer in the the RL community gets to watch this video. Not because he “destroyed” you, but because I usually cross by a lot of people trash talking pros when they make some kind of mistake. I like confidence but that’s not it, it’s just ignorance.

Haven't played in a few years, but was C3D1 (which was like top 1.2 or so% back in the day). The difference in mechanical skill and speed between C3D1 and C3D2/D3, or GC, looked massive and looked like an incredibly massive time commitment compared to anything prior. It honestly looked like I would have to log double the hours I had already to climb a couple divisions.
i don't grind ranked anymore but when i did i averaged champ 2. my peak was champ 3 division 3. and let me tell you the entire game in mid-high champ 3 was completely different then anything i had ever played. the difference in skill gap and speed was huge going from champ 2 to champ 3. so no surprise i went down to champ 2 lol. and shortly stopped grinding rank after that because my internet went bad
it's always interesting to me to see how developed the mechanics between ranks are especially at the highest level even there are still large gaps of mechanics and even in my own rank its very jarring to see the massive difference(I myself am a no mechanic player)
People focus on different aspects of the game. I quite often have mates with great mechanics but awful positional awareness - or, solid speed and accuracy but horrible defense, etc. The art is to pick up on team deficiencies early and try to fill in the gaps
This is what people who aren't at least reasonably good at the game don't appreciate. The difference between two people some three ranks apart is so big that the rank of the lower one doesn't matter at all. A GC won't notice the difference between a low champ and a mid diamond or even a plat having a good day, it's absolutely no resistance from either. These 30% difference in time completing the packs means that the better, more consistent and faster player will be on the ball not 30% more of the time, but pretty much 99% of the time and just freeplay around the lower player. Skill gaps are INSANE in this game and that's why I love it.
Some people are surprised but like, the difference between top 1% and top 0.01% is a factor of 100. Think your rich grandparents versus Jeff Bezos' nephew, or the fastest kid on your football team versus Tyreek Hill.
Best advice that I can give to challenge people way better than you. Play faster and more simple ground game and be as in their face as possible while not over extending. This forces them to not go up walls to set up easy air dribbles that could be hard for you to save. And if they do go up the wall go up your backwall copy them and challenge when they are in the middle of their setup. I am C1 and I cam compete relatively fairly against higher ranks and it is rare for one person to even get 10 goals on me. But I rarely face anyone over GC2
Yo wayton I have been watching you for a while and I was wondering if you could make a video about your journey through RUclips.

I don’t even think that makes any sense in the context of this video
I know it doesn't matter much, but any shots like 114.5x are actually considered 115 in the rocket league replay. Taking that into account, both of you had a lot more throughout this series that could have been counted.
Its just cause round it up. But it still doesnt hit the 105 or 115 bar. Loke if you have an exam and you pass from 51% then you will still fail with 50.5%
@@ge-9848 that wasn’t true for me in university. In one of my first year calculus classes I ended with 49.6% as my overall grade, and because the final grade has to round to the nearest whole number it rounded to 50% and I actually passed the course

Tbh, my favorite rocket league moment is when every season is beginning because I've got chance to meet those players destroying GC game and that's so enjoying
lets goo the king uploaded!
Other day i saw 2 SSL players 1v1 and the other one was so much better. Its so weird how skill difference can be so huge even players are same rank.
This is such a great video idea!
I was thinking - could you do a video on the Rank 1 player vs. a lower top 100 player? See what the difference is there?
As a person who doesn't play RL, I think a lot of people underestimate the skill difference between a pro and myself and a small infant and myself. The skill gap in this game is utterly insane.
To be fair, though often overlooked, on a mathematical scale 100%-1% is an equal fractional difference when compared to 1%-0.01%.
nerd!
It’s crazy to see someone that would destroy almost every player in rocket league go 0-10+
How can Pro's literally multiply the speed of their ball Its actually insane how fast the ball comes off their cars.
As a Dimond it’s crazy to think that people underestimate the difference between gc and ssl it’s a crazy difference and many people don’t see it. Lol
Wayton all of your video are so awesome tbh u should have already a million sub
The gap between ranks started to be huge from mid champ to pro. Everyone can easily reach diamond/champ. But gc and ssl it's something else.
Watching him stall and redirect the car mid air made me think that I'd love to see a RCLS match with unlimited boost for everyone.
Im Champ 2 last time I played with a friend who’s gc1 … I had no chance and got shit on by them every game. The gap is insane
“The contrast of skill and intelligence between the top 1 percent and the top 0.01 percent is impossible to be visualised accurately and will never be”

Rocket league do be putting Einstein to shit
What
This is everything I could want in a vid, great way to show the gap
Super cool video and shout out to Comm for doing it. I feel like there is only a select few pros willing to put themselves out there for content like this 👍
Now you should do this against a top 0.0000000001 pro “Zen”
you should do a video on what to practice to get from top 1% to .01% as a gc player I would expect the exact same outcome you had and I think that would be a very good video.
It is not that easy man, as comm said, he doesnt do training, why? Because wayton could do almost everything comm did but obviously he was so much better and consistent, thats the thing, you dont practice being consistent or being fast, you just get better with the time
it took me approximately 300-500 hours from gc to gc3 now. i am playing since 2017 and even gc to gc3 is such an insane skill gap. 90% of the improving process is getting better game sense, reading other players and dont throw position too often
thank you for these training packs
Lol this is great. The pros in this game really are incredible. Thank you for sacrificing your pride for us :P
now i want to see the skill difference between bottom 1% and bottom 0.01%
The skill gap is insanely vast between the top 1% and 0.01%. Keep in mind that the difference between, say, platinum and GC is much smaller than GC to Pro. You could think of it as "distance" where the top 100% is 100x the "distance" of the top 1% but the top 1% is ALSO 100x the top 0.01%. Its pretty much like a Darksouls NGs... Insane.
I disagree, I think gc to ssl is pretty close compared to plat to gc or even plat to champ. From a consistency and game sense standpoint there are just too many errors in plat games.(From watching replay review videos)
Even in this wayton could keep up with comm, a plat is going to struggle mightily to just accomplish any of these tasks I'd love to be proven wrong in an uncut video of all these challenges in sequence. ;) I don't think it would be pretty at all.
@@kaugh Taking in consideration the amount of time reaching top 0.001 % and from plat to GC, then I would say that the time to become in the top will take twice as much time as getting the GC.
@@patriktruong5324 Time is a terrible factor in regards to the top. If it were based on time you wouldn't see the season one elites be mid tier "washed" pros now. They had a headstart in sarp and they'd have a headstart over everyone today, but younger faster, smarter players have risen up, in a short time comparatively.
It will take time to reach the top, but time invested where you focus on mistakes, strategy, training will get you there a LOT faster than queing into the abyss with your eyes closed which a majority of the people do, or play to just have fun, which I respect a lot more than climbing a leaderboard. I personally like to laugh while playing whether I epic own goal or do a braindead pinch that goes right in it's all for funzies.
And here I am, barely staying in Gold 3. LOL. The skills you guys have is amazing.
to be fair, the shooting workshop map has easier shots and more harder shots. From what i saw comm got way harder shots than wayton got
Hitting the ball before the bounce on the bounce dribble was huge info!!! Thanks @comm
One thing I noticed, that a lot of people will probably feel controversial about, is that Comm saw Wayton’s gameplay before he did it, so he knew what to expect from where the ball is, Comm is better, it just wasn’t as fair as it could’ve been.
Wayton has played those training packs more than Comm has, such as: the shooting map and the other training packs. We know this because Wayton has used those maps before in some of his older videos like his "pro training routine" video. As well as this, Comm said in the video he does not use training packs and even so there would be months of break in between which probably goes for the aim training workshop too. Therefore your argument that it wasnt fair for Comm seeing it happen is completely invalid as viewing them only gives a general sense of what is happening. I would agree with you that it wasn't as fair as it could've been as Wayton knew and experienced those training methods previously and yet still Comm beat him for his first time trying this training method. It is not controversial but fact that viewing Wayton's game play did not make it unfair in the slightest.
This is a good example that you only need to get about double as good to go from 50% to 25% but you need to be 10x as good just to go from 0.1 to 0.01
4:23, for what Comm said here, I totally agree with that even though I'm a lower rank. But getting your shots right isn't the hardest thing. That title belongs to the dreaded... the terrible... OPEN NET.
P.S. I'm Diamond 2.
Comm: *Gets only 4 powerful bounce dribbles
oKhaliD: "Pathetic"
What if you do a champ and yourself to see the difference between ranks....maybe a part 2
as a gc who got coached by an ssl ex top 100 i can actually relate so much to what happened to wayton. he beat me 16-0 in our first game played. after 2 weeks of training our last game ended 7-4 for him and i only got open nets after he hit posts really close to scoring an unsaveable shot. so yea this is actually the difference between a gc and .01% in the game. huge skill gap, insane ammount of time between us. have a nice day and good luck to your games guys!
If Wayton lost to COMM 14-0 and he’s a part of the 1% then what is a low 1% going to do against COMM. 140-0
probably like 35-0 cause time limit
@@GoaterRL More. The bottom 1% can most definitely be scored on straight from a speedflip kickoff. As the timer doesn't start before the touch, it takes less than 2 seconds if executed perfectly. With 2 sec/goal one could theoretically end up 150-0
@@BrawlLegendLink yeah I guess you're right, but every kickoff would have to be perfect though
@@GoaterRL yep, that's why I said "theoretically". Some three digit figure should be doable though.
@@BrawlLegendLink The math is fine I guess but any player could adjust their kickoff to prevent it from working
the fact that even grand champions miss and make mistake still doesn't stop my plat teammates from calling me a shit teammate
Me, a top 100%:
Look at it this way: You just witnessed the difference between the best out of 100 people play against someone who is the best out of 10,000 people. Let that sink it. Very great showing of such an immense skill gap, great video.
gc is more like 50ish thousand, and maybe it's because I've been above gc for like 12 seasons, but it isn't that hard to get and a lot of gcs are terrible at rotation or terrible mechanically.
I love u so much I learnt alote of things from you and I wish to be like you
I cant touch the ball when I fly. These guys are wizards
Now do this with ssl and pro pls
Don't play rocket league but great video. It's always good to see what a difference hardwork makes in any discipline.
The difference is top 0.01% can't compare to you when it comes to making videos
This is one of the few games where its actually impossible to beat a higher level player unless they have some kind of handicap. In pretty much any other competitive game, especially first person shooters, someone who is leagues worse than another player still has a chance of beating that higher skilled player
Repent and follow Jesus my friend! Repenting doesn't mean confessing your sins to others, but to stop doing them altogether. Belief in Messiah alone is not enough to get you into heaven - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Contemplate how the Roman empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years to accomplish the religion of the Israelites C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate though because you can start a relationship with God and have proof. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life. - Revelation 3:20
Revelation has been unfolding since Jesus died. The Popes have claimed to be equal to God and set themselves in Jesus' place (antichrist(s)). Vatican City (Which is its own nation BTW) have risen up to fulfill the role of the false prophet
Regarding the man of lawlessness or antichrist, 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says “Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” The restrainer that the Apostle Paul was referring to in 2 Thessalonians was the Western Roman Emperor, who held back the Popes from taking power. Once the last Western Roman Emperor was removed from power in 476 AD, the Pope was given civil and ecclesiastic authority over Rome; healing the deadly head wound of the beast in Revelation 13, as they took the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of the church and state.
“We may according to the fullness of our power, dispose of the law and dispense above the law. Those whom the Pope of Rome doth separate, it is not a man that separates them but God. For the Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man but of the true God.” (Source: “Decretals of Gregory IX,” Book 1, chapter 3.)
Pope Pius V blasphemed, “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” (Source: Pope Pius V, quoted in Barclay, Cities Petrus Bertanous Chapter XXVII: 218.)
Pope Leo XIII declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” (Source: Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter, June 20, 1894)
The antichrist sea beast of Revelation points to the office of the papacy, the Popes of Rome, who controlled the Roman beast for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD.
Daniel 7:25 says “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” The Popes of Rome spoke against Elohim and proclaimed to be God. They reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 AD. during which they caused tens of millions of saints to be killed.
The Pope’s title is Vicar of Christ, which in Latin is ‘Vicarius Filii Dei’, and equates numerically to the number 666
I would be curious to see how far down the ranks you would have to go to see you dominate the way Comm did?
Probably only as far as Champ 2. When I was GC1 the best I could 1v2 was Champ 2s.
@@vayull7163 He mentioned he was a 3's player, I'm a c2 3's player and can very confidently say he'd destroy me putting in a tenth of my effort. The only thing to maybe mention is that this video is very focused on mechanics. Even in pro play some players are simply more mechanically gifted than others, even though they are competing at the same level.
@@DanielRBW True. I'd say the only reason I am good a 1v2s is because the best aspect of my gameplay is my gamesense. I'm not a very mechanical player but I avoid 99% of bumps and will always position myself correctly to deal with 2 people attacking at once.
Its so surreal to hear a pro say. "Flip resets and air dribbles are the easy part" " shooting the ball well is hard"
That statement could NOT be more true
When you talk about Power Shots they say you get the fastest shot before the ball bounce, but it counter mechanics because the ball has a mass which means it has inertia, you need to stop it first to change it direction and momentum.
so if the ball bounce at you or the ground you need to overcome its inertia.
while if you hit it just after it bounce all the energy you invest will go to the ball.
the physical engine of the game feels pretty realistic if your on the moon haha, but the concept is still valid .
Great video, love the channel, new to the game
What the hell is this ball movement at 10:09 ???
u asking how it got to his car or impressed by Comms touch to the ceiling?
@@MrJSenf nah that ball movement just doesn't make sense, the way the car was spinning meant that the ball should go to the right not to the top
Those double taps looked insane never knew that was possible
Next do top 100% vs top 10% vs top 1% vs top 0.1% (regular ssl) vs top 0.01% (aka the best pro players get Daniel or someone)
This is so disrespecful to Comm lol
@@salgueromarvin4579 or comm he could get any top pro player
Those douple taps were beautiful.
As a top tier halo player you might win a 1v1 every now and then the difference is consistency and when you have a team of consistent players the difference widens.
I’m here waiting for the top .01% vs bottom .01%. Let’s see the full gap.
Such a great video to visualize where it is that you need to improve! It's very common to hit GC and become blind to how you can improve. Thank you Wayton!
Now mid GC vs low SSL =D
It's amazing how you think in any game there could be better people than the people that are the "kings and queens" of a game that are on social media platforms.
I hope every gamer in the the RL community gets to watch this video. Not because he “destroyed” you, but because I usually cross by a lot of people trash talking pros when they make some kind of mistake. I like confidence but that’s not it, it’s just ignorance. Thank you for the quality content, you always deliver and I really enjoy your videos. And btw, you actually did a great job, I wouldn’t have done what you did xD
Those flicks were so surprising, he really was so consistant with them.
I was deranking myself from a silver player (rofl) and got so low, I was considered Top 0%. I got to -100 Rating. Was sad to see that there wasn't a rank below Bronze 1, Div 1.
those double taps off the ceiling bounce are nutty
As a ones player. The power in his flicks is absolutely stunning
To get gc you need 2k hours, to get ssl you need another 2k so 4k hours, to go pro you need 8-10k hours
Appreciate the comparison. This could have been any game/sport/competitive thing and it would still be good watchin' material. This one was well done.
I haven't watched a Rocket League video in forever, but I wanted to hop in as a designer and say: the thumbnail of this video is insanely good. Pulled me in instantly. Great work!
Speed of shots gets rounded up to the nearest whole number
Ya
Amazing video. I believe this also happens in other sports, people believe that because they are the best in their hometown they are better than sucky pros, but the level is just different. Thanks for the video!
Wayton with yet another quality upload
i wonder how okhalid would have done in the bounce dribble section lol
I always see your gameplay and you look so good in the air and I'm not sure how you're barely above my rank... then I see your flicks
Another banger
Was the third pack shots you shouldn’t miss? I recognized it
THX Psyonix: I am plat 1, but most of my enemys are diamond tournament winners, and the last guy was an SSL (at least HE said he was one) 10/10 matchmaking. No wonder people ragequit. At least i can enjoy watching you, Leth and the others. ^^
I really really want a tutorial on his double touch. Crazy
Haven't played in a few years, but was C3D1 (which was like top 1.2 or so% back in the day). The difference in mechanical skill and speed between C3D1 and C3D2/D3, or GC, looked massive and looked like an incredibly massive time commitment compared to anything prior. It honestly looked like I would have to log double the hours I had already to climb a couple divisions.
Ya the gap between c3 and gc prior to f2p was insane
@@Auroraisvibing21 Yeah the people a division or two above me at the time had like triple , or even sometimes quadruple my hours lol
@@alexc4012 I hit gc for the first time in season 14 so I get what you mean
@@Auroraisvibing21 Congrats man!
i don't grind ranked anymore but when i did i averaged champ 2. my peak was champ 3 division 3. and let me tell you the entire game in mid-high champ 3 was completely different then anything i had ever played. the difference in skill gap and speed was huge going from champ 2 to champ 3. so no surprise i went down to champ 2 lol. and shortly stopped grinding rank after that because my internet went bad
it's always interesting to me to see how developed the mechanics between ranks are especially at the highest level even there are still large gaps of mechanics and even in my own rank its very jarring to see the massive difference(I myself am a no mechanic player)
People focus on different aspects of the game. I quite often have mates with great mechanics but awful positional awareness - or, solid speed and accuracy but horrible defense, etc. The art is to pick up on team deficiencies early and try to fill in the gaps
Love your content ❤ keep it up 👍
This is what people who aren't at least reasonably good at the game don't appreciate. The difference between two people some three ranks apart is so big that the rank of the lower one doesn't matter at all. A GC won't notice the difference between a low champ and a mid diamond or even a plat having a good day, it's absolutely no resistance from either. These 30% difference in time completing the packs means that the better, more consistent and faster player will be on the ball not 30% more of the time, but pretty much 99% of the time and just freeplay around the lower player. Skill gaps are INSANE in this game and that's why I love it.
The double tap technique of Comm amazed me, as a gc wow.
Some people are surprised but like, the difference between top 1% and top 0.01% is a factor of 100. Think your rich grandparents versus Jeff Bezos' nephew, or the fastest kid on your football team versus Tyreek Hill.
Best advice that I can give to challenge people way better than you. Play faster and more simple ground game and be as in their face as possible while not over extending. This forces them to not go up walls to set up easy air dribbles that could be hard for you to save. And if they do go up the wall go up your backwall copy them and challenge when they are in the middle of their setup. I am C1 and I cam compete relatively fairly against higher ranks and it is rare for one person to even get 10 goals on me. But I rarely face anyone over GC2
Yo wayton I have been watching you for a while and I was wondering if you could make a video about your journey through RUclips. I don’t know if you have done this before but I think it would be interesting and a lower effort video that could create a different style in your content. U hope you see this and I love your content❤❤
