- In this video we are reviving the ALG University series and renaming it Big Brain University. This episode is focused on the mistakes that diamond players make in Rocket League, we go through the replays of 2 diamond subscribers that played together and I talk about the things they do right and wrong. I use an on screen pen to illustrate my thoughts so that you can understand the analysis better.

I stream LIVE on twitch EVERY SATURDAY at 4pm EST! Come hang out if you're watching this on the day I uploaded and ask me some questions! :)
www.twitch.tv/VirgeRL
Can u do one of these for low champ?? I need help lol
Thanks for these videos! I wonder if you can answer... during the goal that happens at 15min, is there a best choice as to which player should go to block the shot? Assuming guy on wall and goalie both respect the shot and have the mechanics to get there, which one /should/ be going?
I guess I am kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good website to stream newly released series online ?
@Zakai London Lately I have been using flixzone. You can find it by googling :)
Could I send you some clips to have you review I just got into dimond. And I’m having issues I’m aware of just don’t know the correct thing to do in those situations
Gotta give it to them for being able to stand up and let them be analyzed, especially with how toxic RL players can be
Seriously! Traptorraptor and Spark.c are the goats!
Yeah big ups to them
@@Mango-nv7qi He said "Average rocket league player:", implying that there are a lot of *other* people who do say that. He was not saying that himself
@@colinbalfour1834 yea traptorraptor said he played a little worse because of the nerves
Lil kids who’ve never competed at a high level at anything
I made a list of all the stuff he mentioned in the video :)
1. Keep up your momentum
2. Be patient
3. What can my teammate do? Closer positioning when my teammate is on the wall with the ball
4. Guard goal side when going for 50/50s
5. Use the space you have and keep the ball close
6. Recognize when you can and can not shoot
7. Sometimes it's ok to sit still
8. Anticipate what's going to happen and how long it's going to take
9. Make sure to rotate back post
10. Don't over complicate basic mechanics
11. Make sure to pick up as many small pads as you can
12. Always respect the possibility of a shot from the opponent
13. Don't give the ball away to the opponents for free
14. Never leave your teammate in a 2v1
15. Don't give your opponents time on the ball
16. Try to close the distance in a 1v1 scenario
17. Never stay still, facing straight in the net without momentum
Hope this helps
This seems like it was quite soul destroying to make
funny how this sounds as you say sometimes its okay to sit still but also never stay still, luckily, it also includes facing straight in net as well.
@@toasterdoggo7885 Number 17 is way more specific, it says in the net and facing straight. Number 7 is just as Virge said "If the play isn't moving you don't have to move" it does not pinpoint a specific scenario.
@@lermsy9187 I mean...yeah lul
7. Its ok to sit still
17. Never sit still
Virge has a rare ability to criticize in the kindest way and show respect, even through someone's mistake. Fantastic content! 💕
Just like Flakes!
My diamond self needed this video.
now you have it
What rank u now
@@idkwhattoputhere5503 seven
What rank u now
What rank u now
Why does it feel like he knows exactly what I need
Cause he does
He really does lol
*he* *knows* *where* *you* *live*
Because he considers you a typical diamond so looks at your replays to find trends
Although typical diamond this season is a plat. It’s weird
@@matts5247 yeah, kinda dumb
Hello this is Traptorraptor, thanks for having me virge! This was a blast and I can’t thank you enough for the replay analysis!
I’ve learned a lot and now am sitting close to gc and still come back to this video every once in a while to be refreshed on the tips, and yes I can say even in high champ these tips help a lot and still do apply.
Great video virge and hope to see more of BBU in the future!
Thank you, Traptorraptor
Hey Virge, I'd like to see a critique of a winning team in a close match. Mistakes made in a loss are glaringly obvious upon review and often known to player, but when players are peaking I think you'll find areas where they really had to stretch to achieve victory and therefore what to focus on to improve consistency.
Second this
Thank you that is really smart, and what was looking for.
"damn, diamond 3 is looking pretty weak this season to be honest." - me, a career plat 2 player.
Yea diamond has been weird the past 2 seasons
Tbf these guys were really solid like if they were my team mates I would win more often
typical plat , doesn’t see mechanics and assumes level is low ;)
@@JigglypuffTutorials I'm diamond 3 and he's right lol he is 100% right
@@JigglypuffTutorials d3 feels like d1 this season and its felt that way since the season of free to play because the mmr changed and plays moved up to diamond
That intro still be hittin’ different.
Probably the best on RUclips
@@lermsy9187 agreed
I’m GC2 and still saw 4 things here that I could improve on. Thanks Virge
Dang it’s like Virge makes content exclusively for me LOL great help
Hey guys in the vid I’m also D3 and you guys submitting this replay helped out a lot thank you guys. Also you seem so much better than me, keep it up!
I really like this kind of video, a professional coach like Virge makes this game even better than it looks, showing us that is not only about to touch a ball. Its so much more than that! Hope to be picked for a potential champ1 video🙌
“Some of you may have subscribed to my channel because of this series” yup yup
Can’t lie, that is the coolest intro I’ve ever seen
1:26 bro … everything before this was such a respectful and amazing way to intro this video ❤️💯
Thx Virge that actually really helped. This literally had everything that I do wrong as a diamond
Thank you Sparksie and Raptor, I make the same mistakes you guys did just more often 😅
These guys were perfect for a Diamond rank showcase. My 2s has been plummeting and I swear every time 2s play it I lose. This helped me a lot.
C2-C3 and these tips are still great reminders for me. Also big thanks to the guys in the replay, and of course thank you Virge!! Feels like a free professional coaching session. I'm sure I'll watch all of these BBU videos :)
No one, literally no one, has a better intro than Virge
Leths is tied for me
This was a great video, literally d3 now and every mistake I saw was exactly what I do. Props to the people who let us see their gameplay
Aaaa! I love the name choice! Excited for this series!
I appreciate so much the amount noobness of those 2 players and their humbleness to show to us all how noob they are without feeling bad.
You'd both deserve a medal for how noob and humble you are. Thank you for the bravery in allowing this youtuber to point out your more or less horrible noob mistakes.
Here we go Virge. I have thank them for being brave and letting you make a video while analyzing them. You're welcome.
Whats your problem
@@NikhalDore I guess I was just joking by being sarcastic.
Such a useful video! Out of the whole thing though, the best part? That intro... That intro is so clean!
No matter what rank you are, this video still helps a ton. I was originally d1 and after i watched this video i made it to champ 2 and im at around 500 hours total across both pc and ps4 but i am happy with my improvement. Thanks Virge!
Great video, a lot of very relatable mistakes and great explanations. Almost all of the clips had easy to miss mistakes that don't feel like mistakes in the moment.
i’m a c2 player, and i love ur vid, great refresher. I would like to emphasize the front post rotation. I think it is the number ONE most annoying / common mistake (and i spent a long time in diamond) along with leaving net when the 50 isn’t won or the possession isn’t clear. I don’t know if it’s the 100 boost, or the comfort, but if you rotate front post it’s 1) harder to turn around and make an impact on the play 2) you can cause your teammate to hesitate on a simple clear 3) your teammate has to try to avoid you on his way to the ball. So many heartbreaking easy goals we could’ve avoided if my solo q teammate didn’t go front post.
that said it’s a rule not a law and sometimes front post is OK, but not until you master back post.
Props for the guys getting critiqued for all of us to learn ❤
Man i'm diamomd 3 and look! a video that will help me a lot thank you so much virge. You always try to help others, and make others play the game more and to recognize that if you put the time and the effort you will see results!
Honestly these guys were much better than I expected. I'm a diamond 1 and I feel like they looked far more consistent mechanically and positionally than me. Well done guys and great video Virge.
12:55 Coming from someone who is newish to RL, but am experienced enough in games like LOL high elo, I agree that being efficient is the most logical and safer route to victory. However, I do believe that limit testing (or just trying more technical moves) in a real match with the pressure helps as well. It gives you the ability to push yourself further in high pressure situations and create new opportunities to work on in the future. I guess the thing would be finding a good balance of when to be effective vs when to try and do some limit testing. That's my own personal thoughts and since I'm not experienced enough in RL right now (only in diamond rank so far), I can't 100% say that this is a good perspective to have and could be completely wrong.
Hey guys, I know he's critiquing you and all but it sure looks better than my gameplay. Keep it up. :)
Me as a diamond 3 player found this VERY helpful. Thanks!
I have been hard stuck in diamond 2 for a long time this video was very helpful.
This is the content i subscribed for when i was watching ALG University on sunless channel
One of the best educational RL videos ever. Can't wait to see more of this series!
This is my first time watching this series, what a great way to teach and constructively criticize your fans on their mistakes! Love it, keep it up!
These are genuine diamond players. great video, summarises mistakes of the players comprehensively
I actually discovered the series on sunless' channel 2 hours ago and loved it. Now i see this video😍
the "hey" at the beginning with the tilt edit is the best single second of youtube ive ever watched. idk. i think its the timing of it. pretty funny lmao
This was 100% big brain. I needed this, thanks professor virge.
The close control part is really important. Even at gc I see teammates (including myself) get big clears when there's no one around them and they could've controlled the ball more
first time watching. let me just say, THE INTRO IS INSANE
This is one of the few intros I dont skip
Virges intro has to be the best intro of all rocket league creators
Great descriptions of what to look for. This was extremely helpful. Thank you!
Haven’t caught a virge video in a while and I forgot how hard that intro hits
I'm also a diamond 3, this really helped. Respect to sparkzie and trapdorraptor
This is the perfect content for your channel Virge! Looking forward to the series!
Great to see this series back Virge, can't wait to see more. Thanks to Trap and Sparksie, I'm at the same level and make all the same mistakes!
Me watching this when im already champ be like:
"Ah yes i didn't know this"
And then i wonder how im champ
Mate im gc and still went "ah I didn't know that" you would be suprised how bad low gc is. We are basically consistent champs. Or mechanical idiots lmao
Are you me?
Bro same
Well atleast you hit your mechanics/balls so you all deserve champ/GC.
In RL are just so many details that there is alot to improve even of you are near the hihgest rank.
Now this is very interesting to see and learn from. Especially for me, since I am D2 rank aswell.
Good to see that again rotations and actions are KEY to victory.
Good job on this and I cant wait for the next video!
Keep up the good work.
Thank you guys for letting Virge use the replay
Thanks guys, for letting us learn how to be more effective and play smarter. BBU rocks!
That intro clip was so cool
Going to love this series Virge. Keep up the awesome work.
Me and my tm8s NEED this! Thanks so much for the help also the drawing is like so much more helpful than anything else on the internet really it is
Really great observations here. Thanks to everyone who participated.
I needed this video. Been hardstuck in diamond since the bp update when they changed the mmr
One of the most crucial things you rightly touched on a couple times is to slow it down with close control when you're opponents are disadvantaged. They'll expect a hard show or pass in this rank so make good use of time and room to set up passing plays with teammates without hitting the ball hard off the wall or backboard. And for defense you GOTTA practice hard at getting to your opponent's passes off of your own backboard before they do from the rear post which is where you almost always need to be.
Thank you Virge. New player grinding skills and game sense right now so this video is very helpful.
Definitely want to see more from this series
Thank you for these videos. The effort you put in to help the community is incredible. Keep up the amazing work!
I watched even if I am GC because I know that I make diamond mistakes 😂 honestly your reminded me some big mistakes that I make sometimes 👍
this idea is amazing, absolute goat, gonna register now
Virge and Leth with the best intros in the business
Thats a really good vid, love it
Best rocket league video i have seen. Excellent analysis, really cleared up a lot of confusion I had about which approach I should stick to. As a fellow Llama, I commend you sir. Hope all is well 🙏
This is one of the best RL videos I've ever seen tyty
These guys are actually really good for diamond
They are normal for D3
@@abdulazizalsubaai9030 Not really, maybe in your games, when I was d3 a couple seasons ago they sucked
And does coaching
This is really great analysis! Seriously, solid work.
Thank you Virge for this vid I think it will really help me, this is exactly what I was looking for. I've been having a hard time getting to Diamond 3 that what I really want rn but its really hard, thanks for the advicd.
Amazing video, love the detail and call outs. Solid advice :)! Hope to see more of this.
Great content. Big thanks to the players for letting you use their gameplay.
Thanks for the participants to step up so that we can all learn from it
Honestly these diamonds were pretty nuts!
This was genuinely helpful. I'm having trouble getting to diamond right now lol
intro still fire here is some words of encouragment ENCOURAGEMENT
This is actually so great as a low-mid diamond myself, these players are definetly a decent amount better than me but only a lil bit so i can understand what they do right and wrong and why, and virge, suprisingly as a professional coach for one of the best teams, somehow hes good at teaching things lmao nah but this helps thiccly
The intro 🔥
The sunless series is exactly why I originally subscribed
Professor Virge is baaaaaaaaaaaack!!!
This video was amazing for me. I love seeing a rank right above me broken down. Thanks!
I'm d1 and this is helping me very much. Thanks Virge :)
Thanks! I've started to play again and am still c1-c2 but I've forgotten about many little things like this losing momentum when the play slows down and i drive forth and back
I legit get into diamond. My thing listens to me bro... and now all I get is diamond vids XD. I mean I’m not complaining, there helpful
my biggest mistake as a diamond is *what a saving" during a 4pt lead, thinking karma can't catch up. Then losing kick off after kick off until it's tied, then losing in OT and getting "What a saved" back.
I'm thoroughly convinced that if I could learn to shut the fuck up, I would probably be able to push out of diamond.
Lmfao as an avid RL shit talker (“No problem” after every save-esp the epic ones), I concur lol
Boys turn into Jordan: “And that’s when I took it personal.” Lol
Super great to see diamond gameplay! Thanks!!!
Thanks Virge this was a great replay review. I'm heading to my own to see what's up.
can we just appreciate how clean his arrows look
Nice analyze dude! What is the program you use for drawing on the screen?
I quit rocket league 2 years ago - at champ 2-3, and now i just play for fun in mid-tier diamond. If I were to give any tips on how to get out of Diamond I'd say there's 3 - 4 big ones that'll let you win two thirds or more of your games.
- put thought and intention into the ball when you hit it. If the ball is coming your way, and there's nobody challenging you - put your best foot forward, go for an air-dribble if you practice those, go for an aerial if practice those, or go for a dribble/flick. Stop hitting the fucking ball with no clue of where you're putting it - whatever it is that got you to this rank, take your time with it and put the ball in net, with intention, not by luck.
- rotate. The answer to losing the game isn't to play the ball more, or to go faster. If you chase the ball all game long - you're leaving your team-mate in a position where they can't play the game, and when they feel like they can't play the game - they're going to commit to the first ball they see, and since you aren't rotating - any clear whatsoever is going to lead toward a goal - and it'll be your fault, because you're mindlessly going for the ball at every chance. I hard carry most of my games - and I barely chase. I stay a safe amount of distance away from the ball to be able to defend a clear, whilst being close enough to the ball to identify when a ball is scoreable from a position in which I know I can score it.
- Stop tilting. The guys in this rank have ego problems because they made it out of platinum, and because of that - they have little control over their emotions, when they're losing, despite the fact that they're literally just learning how to hit the ball with precision. They often vote to forfeit shortly after they get scored on. I've lost track of how many times they toss forfeit votes out, only for me to bring us back in the game and win - or my personal favorite, getting us back in the game and then voting for the forfeit vote that they initiated. From my perspective - if you aren't mentally strong enough to endure a 5 minute game, and you tilt, I'm not about to bust my ass in a video game, to hand someone who doesn't deserve it a free win. I would much rather lose, and accept the mmr loss, than propel someone who doesn't deserve it, up one game closer, when they can't get their feelings in check.
- last but not least, actively learning from your mistakes. If you're not consistent with something (such as off-the-wall air-dribbles) stop setting up for them. Adapt to your team-mate, if your team-mate isn't rotating, don't let that lead to a loss - play around it. It sucks, because you're essentially carrying, without the credit for carrying, but playing back when your team-mate is mindlessly chasing will deter every play that the enemy makes, because they can't do what they want to do without fear that you'll punish them.
So much of this game is reliant upon the very basics of the game, yet half the people in this rank think that every goal has to be some flashy goal that incorporates all of these hard-to-learn mechanics, when in reality, I could play behind my team-mate all game long and just clear the ball in the general direction of the opponents net and score some of the ugliest, no-skill, having goals in Diamond - yet win.
I love this. I am C2 but this well broken down replay still helped me
Your intro sequence is the sickest I've ever seen
Great video and series.
Tough beat for the players. Awesome tips.
Bro very helpful video. And the rotation otw back to defend, please cut threw midfield! I get blamed when i cant save the ball cause they are driving right in the path i need to go. People need to learn rotation, i love finding those good teamates that just always rotate right behind you, makes the game so fun!
This is so helpful. Might start reviewing my own replays (finally) and see if I can get out of D2 in 2s...
