Hey Jack, thanks a TON for the replay analysis! I appreciate it very much and am looking forward to implementing your suggestions to my gameplay. Thanks again for the help and compliments as well. GL on your upcoming season!
@philholl4 well sorry answer none. Long answer, he accidentally deleted my previous replay analysis from when he was head coach of SpookLuke's GCR, so he said he would give me a redo.
Hey just something that might help a ton as well, if it’s doable…. I played on PS4 for about 3 years, and then finally saved up for a gaming computer and it really did make a world of difference. There’s a lot of touches you were just off on and that could be mechanics, but I swear when I went to PC those were the same touches I had problems with and they were almost immediately gone when I got my PC! Just something to think about!
Hey, if you do need to practice fast aerials, a good drill I saw was going to freeplay on standard boost, picking up a single pad, and boosting to the ceiling and getting your wheels on the ceiling. It’s a grifflicious video titled something like, “need boost.” If you’re doing your fast aerial correctly, you’ll be able to get all wheels on the ceiling with 45 boost. It helped me a lot. You can also go above the crossbar with twelve. There’s an entire warmup drill I do to work on aerials and other recoveries. It’s an easy 5-10 minute warmup. GLHF
I feel like a massive tip for alot of players who feel like they are behind mechanically is to consciously pay attention to where your nose is pointing too. Massive but underrated part of aerial control. Make sure it's pointing directly where you want to go, just like they taught you in swim class ❤
This was very rich... definitely one to watch a couple of times. Thanks, Jack! Also, you often mention but didn't so much in this one: holding your 2nd jump as long as you are able also gives you more options in that you can dodge or wave-dash if necessary, depending on conditions. If'n you snap both jumps at the start, you lose these options.
I watched one of your previous videos on 2v2s and went on a hot streak getting just outside of gc all thanks to implementing better positioning. You're great at breaking down and explaining these topics, much love man thanks!
Jack, what you're doing with these analysis videos is amazing. I'll probably never go above Gold III because I just don't put time into RL, but absolutely appreciate the effort that goes into videos like this and the knowledge you're sharing for players who are trying to make big improvements on their game.
Really interesting video. Not fast aerialing at GC is something I haven't come across in my analysis videos so it's intriguing to see it here. Great video Jack!
How would you recommend doing ur own replay analysis? I feel like seeing my friends replays I can find many flaws. However whenever I watch my own i struggle to find major flaws as in my head it seems like the best play
It’s crazy how this guy made it to gc without fast aerialing! I went from d3-p3 while learning them and went straight to gc the next season. Fast aerials are huge. Props to this guy for being so smart
This was a great analysis! I think I'm in a very similar position to the player. I'm in my mid 30s, been on the edge of GC for multiple seasons (hit GC last season but no rewards, currently mid C3 in 3s and 2s) and been GC in OG seasons 3 and 13 with about 3k hours. My mechanics are my struggle as well and hammering on the fast aerials will make me look at mine a lot more closely. The "first touch with top of car" is also something I hadn't considered and will be a part of my practice from now on.
Im 41. Same boat. Old bad habits. It’s really hard to correct those things after thousands of hours of bad way to do things. Been c3 for 16 seasons now.
Been playing since launch with a lot of bad habits built up over the years and this video has exposed me so hard. Been a few days since first watching and I'm starting to feel like a new player. I keep scoring goals and telling my duo "that's because of appjack" lol
Thank you for making these videos, my 2s partner and I sit down every now and again and analyze our games - win or lose to figure out what went well and what went wrong. It has definitely made us a lot better and totally inspired by your videos :)
really loved you showing the mechanics in freeplay and explaining them at the end. If possible would like to see the controller overlay for these in future. Feel like that could help a lot of people including me ^^
Incredible video 👏 me and this player have a lot of things in common so I felt like you were speaking directly to me 😅 thank you for doing this Jack 🤜🤛
Bro, if the car design was different, I would have said that's me lol, I struggle with the same exact things as him on offense, (i do fast aerial tho xD) 😅, Great video as always man, Good luck and Keep going brother ❤
I can't wrap my head around air roll control. I've watched a bunch of air roll videos but my brain can't comprehend how to control the car in the air while its spinning and the orientation is continuously changing. I only play 2v2 with my buddy and we're hard stuck in Champ 1. Has anyone really struggled with aerial control and found something that clicked for them. I'm a RL boomer so only play a limited amount of time after work so I don't have time to grind hours a day. For a reference I have 2,700hrs in the game and I'm closer to 40 than 30 😂... Like a lot closer.
The brain learns through sleep, mainly, especially when you're older. Go into a rings map, or fly figure 8s in pillars if you're on console, and for ten minutes a day, constantly hold air roll while trying to fly through the obstacles. Do this every day for 2 weeks at least and the improvements will be massive.
I'm with you bro. It doesn't make sense at all to me. I've done ring maps, i watched all tutorials that i can, it just feels like it will never happen lol. I'm also 39 so it feels like it's just so much harder to learn for us old folk. C2 here and i can barely get off the ground.
What helped for me learning is while spinning don’t move anything just stay in the air. Now look at the nose of your car, the nose of your car when facing the camera is 0. When your car is wheels facing camera it’s 180. The direction that the car moves based on your inputs doesn’t change with the rotation. Whatever direction the nose of ur car is in is your new control base. I would recommend learning to fly statically where you dont use any air roll in every orientation
Hey jack really helpful Video thanks for that. I dont understand one Part every time i touch the Ball in the air i get a weird feedback. How do u contorl this?
I have the same problem like this guy. How do I predict when and where I am going to hit the ball through fast aerialling, because you are telling to first adjust the direction then full boost through the aerial
Hey jack i am exactly the same as this much higher in non mechanics but that is because I play with my right hand only. My thumb steers my other 4 fingers do all the rest. Very good at solo Qing and adapting and going on 70% wins all modes but 1s at least c3 usually. Recoveries, aerial control, and walls are hardest. Oh and I use brake with my foot😊
Lol my mechanics look like this guy and im low gc1. And i struggle to keep air control at all when i go in the air and often times lose control of the ball. Sometimes i get a good bounce dribble but more times than not im bad at it lol.
So how important is the empty jump in a fast aerial? Would it be worth it for this guy to change what hes doing even if he is simply jump+tilt+boosting?
In his case it would. Cause in the video, he’s not holding his jump button down long enough. I have the same problem, but not all the time. Id rather be shit at mechanics after thousands of hours than be shit at positioning/awareness. Mechanics are easier to learn/relearn than having good game sense. Like teaching a drummer that has no limbs coordination VS teaching a drummer with no rhythm.
i feel like 3:37 is more of just the player being scared of the teammate recovering too slow while trying to demo on 0 boost. if i saw my teammate doing that in gc2 i’d shoot but idk about gc1 considering how bad people are at recovering and using small pads
Getting to gc1 without fast aerials is pretty crazy ngl. He’s pretty much been playing with ankle weights imagine how fast and mechy he’s gonna feel once he gets used to it
guys im kinda newbie in RL.. Trying to learn air roll for btter car control but no matter hw much vid i look on, i still don't get it how to.. u guys have any tips for me to learn air roll?
And peaked gc2, it actually sounds amazing, the only explanation I can find is, if you watch carefully even his bad touches continue to progressively move the ball around in an unpredictable way while having good positioning. All of c3 and gc1 is filled with chasers, once you get to gc2 you actually start seeing a full insight in how mechanics are used. Not just going for clips but rather using the right mech in the right circumstances to preserve possession while getting an overcommit or awkward position by the opponent to then capitalize. Im usually in the 1600s and trust me when I say, you dont need mechs to get to or through gc1, theyre just dum dum xD
No bro, I'm a champ and I've realized that watching and playing are very different I've had these very same thoughts but then actually going up against gc's, ssl's you get humbled real quick. There are a lot of subtle differences that you can't really see when watching compared to playing.
@@Eastlandlifestyle I sit between 1550-1600. Unless you've been to GC, I'm going to assume what you're actually experiencing is the chaos of Diamond and Champ lobbies, and that makes it feel more difficult, faster or intense than a GC game looks on a video. There is such a massive difference between even c3 and GC1 if you're stuck in those ranks consistently.
His m8 is a current gc1 peak gc2… this is a gc lobby u just don’t understand what higher ranks look like also this player is not mechanical so it makes everyone look lower lvl than they actually are
I need a replay of a mechanical player around champ, cus then I can learn something. I have no clue what the reason is for me never even hitting c3 let alone gc1, my game sense is pretty good too so idk. Maybe it's challenges because I lose against less skilled opponents purely because they don't challenge like the pros i see when watching videos/replays, i'm pretty sure it's me not recognizing the ballchase tendency that's so rampant in this shitty rank and capitalizing on it by just beating em
Hey Jack, thanks a TON for the replay analysis! I appreciate it very much and am looking forward to implementing your suggestions to my gameplay. Thanks again for the help and compliments as well. GL on your upcoming season!
Yo...so what did this cost lol? always been curious about coaching vids by pros or youtubers.

Rocketinsight has the best replays in the game btw

teammate pov or opponent pov
Same here 😅
Legit just watch anyone elses pov and it becomes clear as day
Same
I is kinda hard to externalise yourself from your own plays, one way I guess to look at replays that are really old are easier.
Needed this jack. Honestly we all love you're main channel here but these videos are so important for us. Thanks mate much love ❤
Camera usage tips are really hard to come by -- massively appreciated in this one, cheers
I asked u this question in your stream yesterday. U didn't see it. BUT THIS VIDEO IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED IT. U THE GOAT
The training packs are an amazing addition to these videos
He's really doing the lord's work. Going to make a great coach in the future.
It’s crazy how this guy made it to gc without fast aerialing! I went from d3-p3 while learning them and went straight to gc the next season. Fast aerials are huge. Props to this guy for being so smart

Tysm I'm a gc2 who gets accused of being a champ 2 because of my mechs 😭

had me sweating when this notification popped up whilst watching the main channel. I'll be back

Very interesting replay analysis love this one
The point about saving your second dodge for after the first touch - surprisingly simple but very helpful.
Incredible video 👏 me and this player have a lot of things in common so I felt like you were speaking directly to me 😅 thank you for doing this Jack 🤜🤛
Jack watching these videos is almost like paying you to teach me, I’ve learnt a lot from just this one video, keep it up! ❤
I've been waiting for this type of analysis. Love it!
Legend - thank you jack what you bringing to the community
Really great analysis would love more of these from you dude
Your ability to teach people is absolutely amazing!! So young but so intelligent🎉
I learn a lot everytime you explain something. Thank you!!!
Great video and analysis with lots of great tips and direction. Thanks for the time you take to help us Jack.
This is actually so crazy we’re getting this kind of information for free from a top pro. I love the internet
one of the best things i seen in a while ! good job :)
please make more of these! super helpful!
love these videos with tons of very specific details
Virge's fast aerial training pack is good indicator if you're actually doing fast aerial or double jump aerial
I think a ton of players would learn so much to watch this replay with you💪😎😊
After seeing this I feel very confident that can get to GC in no time. I’m currently champ 2 with some minor tweaks to game awareness
Love these vids Jack keep it up ❤
i watched this video then played rocket league and peaked first time ever hitting 1400 mmr thanks jack
another little side note i accidentally bought the same headset you have lol
Awesome to hear man!!
Apjack such a legend thanks 😊
Bro, if the car design was different, I would have said that's me lol,
I struggle with the same exact things as him on offense, (i do fast aerial tho xD) 😅,
Great video as always man, Good luck and Keep going brother ❤
you should do a whole video/series on control/mechanics tips
love these videos keep them coming
HOW IS THIS GUY GC!!??
I mean he elaborates exactly how. Bad mechanics, good positioning and awareness.
it would be really helpful, if you did the same video but about defense. i feel that mastering defense is a lot harder, especially challenging
Ive got the exact same problems as the guy in the video. Whats the best way to get better at offensive mechs? (Apart from sitting hours in freeplay)
Could u make a video about how to be consistent I feel like a lot of players are really inconsistent and don’t know how to get consistent
You can do one more analysis of the grand champion. And what should I do to have SSL?
this is a premium masterclass, thanks
This is insane!! You’re going to make a great coach some day if you choose to do so
Thanks for the video. 🤘🤘
Would you be able to add a controller overlay? I like the overlay so people can follow along.
Shout outs to the gamers in our 30s
I'm hard stuck plat, been plat for about 6 years... but why did I still enjoy your analysis on GC lol

Can u do one of these videos for someone of my level around 1900-2k level
As a champ 1 I just learned how to fast aerial from this vid lol
What happened to the car at 10:08
thorough ass video
R u still doing tutorials?? cause i have an request
How can I get one of these videos?
'It takes time to understand whether the ball is going in or not' Meanwhile player has 6000 hours
How do you get in one of these videos?
i feel like 3:37 is more of just the player being scared of the teammate recovering too slow while trying to demo on 0 boost. if i saw my teammate doing that in gc2 i’d shoot but idk about gc1 considering how bad people are at recovering and using small pads

guys im kinda newbie in RL.. Trying to learn air roll for btter car control but no matter hw much vid i look on, i still don't get it how to.. u guys have any tips for me to learn air roll?
for me i found a redirect training pack, and practiced orienting myself to hit the ball well over and over again, every time i got on
W video
parents are asleep ahh commentary
Too right! 😴
why does that gc1 game look like a gold2 game Lol
At 7 second left I think it’s more his fault than his tm8s cuz he should’ve easily saved that and his tm8 defo got mad at hit 😂
This really bothers me. I'm gonna be that guy and say how tf is he GC
Yea looks more like a Diamond 1 to me tbh
It's not just him either it's the whole lobby. Like there's zero mech and people missing balls/ open nets like crazy.

its all about power shots and air dribble

Prob the worst gc Ive ever seen
