    I am not a mechanically gifted player so I am totally with all you guys in the comments! I didn't practice this stuff early on but now that I'm further along I wish I had! It blows my mind that new players these days are able to pick up advanced stuff so fast. Nothing to feel bad about!

I have about 180 hours, and he has about 500 I believe. Was pretty hilarious that they thought we were smurfing, I guess simply because my friend knows how to air dribble (which still seems so difficult to me).

      ​@@flippyz720yearsago2 Yes, because unlike d3, people in gc know that ceilingshots are incredibly slow, easy to read and very easily blocked by going off the wall or even off the ceiling yourself.
      I guess if you master it to the point of being able to apply mind games while doing ceilingshots, or doing mid air 50/50's, or flip resets, etc. it can be useful, but at no point is it a requirement to be able to do proper ceilingshots to reach gc.
      I wonder what other requirements a gc must have in order to ''deserve'' it.

    In the interest of contributing something different than "I'm x level and I can/can't do that" I think what this video demonstrates is the high level of nuance in car/ball control. It's really helpful to see how the subtleties of mechanics can add up to HUGE differences in rank. I wish you had also included half-flips and wave dashes as they seem to be more and more prevalent in the current meta, especially in 1v1. I wonder if you could get free play footage of different levels and compare/contrast them, as I think it's much easier to tell a person's rank by watching them in free play, where they are stretching the limits of their mechanics. I have a 1700+ GC friend and I can say with all certainty that watching his mechanics in free play is infinitely more demonstrative of his level of car/ball control than game play. It's been most helpful to me to see what my friend is doing in free play and try to emulate it, as it's more about stringing mechanics together, rather than just hitting one nutty shot. Just my 2¢. Love the content and the streams. Good times.

      @@carwashsoap what rank are you? Im C3 and have been practicing those advanced mechanics for a little bit now because like Sunless I never went for those much before, but wave dashes and recovery mechanics are the ones I've invested the most since Season 2 when I started the game! I think recovery mechanics might be the most important ones in my eyes, much more than a cieling shot or anything.
      Being able to wave dash, half flip, and using the powerslide to recover means you are way less often caught out of position and become more useful to your team than most of those other mechanics that leave you vulnerable if the opponent reads you or if you miss.
      Basically, get to it and work on your recovery mechanics!

      @@thatoddfrenchguy6623 I've been as high as a D2 but only because I've started playing 3s with a good team. Before that it was just Ranked 3s with randoms. I'm definitely not as mechanically skilled as some players, but I think I have pretty good awareness on where to be and rotating and getting back on D when needed. And having a team that does the same makes a HUGE difference.
      I could definitely use practice on those advanced mechanics though.

I have the season 10 champ goal explosion from being a primarily C1/C2 player the last couple seasons but taking breaks from the game/pairing up with idiots can easily knock you back down to D3. Once in D3 it can be quite challenging to get out. D3 is by FAR the worst rank in the game. Everyone is overly confident in their abilities and make foolish plays. Horrible game sense too.

      @@itsMC. while true, practicing tough mechanics like these helps your basic mechanics improve much much faster. it's just that people tend to not balance what they practice, it tends to be either super tough mechanics or the basic mechanics, instead of balancing both and also practicing positioning. not only that but you can use air dribbles, ceiling shots, and flip resets for more then just shots, just need to get creative. air dribbles and ceiling shots i like to use when on defense. like when i'm going to clear it out of my half, (whether on the backboard or the corner) air dribbles helps me stay close to the ball, and ceiling shots help me get it over the last defender, and with flip resets, a lot of times i clear the ball of the back board i can go for an air dribble into flip reset, or just a flip reset and get it over the last defender, and even if i don't score a goal because of it, now we're in offense instead of defense.

    I havent even touched ranked outside of rumble for fun. I only have 24 hours in RL. Ive been aggressively practicing my mechanics whenever I have the chance in FP. I accidentally learned how to flip reset while practicing in aerial shot training. Cant apply it in an actual game but my aerials have improved exponentially. I genuinely enjoy this game especially cause you can not only see, but feel yourself getting better little by little my aim is platinum by the end of this year and to be able to consistently hit dribble flicks

    Hey Sunless. Super interesting content.
    2021 has just started, I played for like 6 months, I am around Gold3/plat 1 in 2v2, and this is hell.
    At some hours of play, me and my teammate encounter plat that play super super badly, we feel like we are just having a walk on the stadium. And like, just some time after that, it's PGM time, we rank down like hell, and we face gold 1-2-3 that can do crazy aerial tricks and all.
    I mean, the level is so inconsistant and eventually so high in low ranks that we have a super hard time getting better.
    Do you think that the ranking mechanic is broken ? Are there that many smurfs ? Why super good players are still at those low ranks ? It really destroys the experience and we often feel like ragequitting ! x)

    Most people think that you are defined by your rank but that is wrong
    The only thing that defines how good you are is your willingness to persevere and rise to the occasions when you have the chance. Don’t call yourself bad if your a low level
    You are so much better than a gc if you’re prepared for the road ahead and they’re not
    If you’re ready then your time will come

    This video intro just made me feel bad and stop watching. I haven’t really hit any ceiling shots. But I do score occasional air dribbles or fast paste double touches. I usually win match’s cuz I’m pretty good at 50/50 and I’m pretty quick. C2 here
    Flip resets and ceiling shots(the ones where you hold onto your flip and mess around) seem a step up.
    I usually practice the “ultimate warmup” the redirect pack by Poquito
    And “Deevo”

    This video explains why playing at gold and plat can be so frustrating. We see here the one time they pulled this move off, but not the 1,000s of times they failed and left their teammate(s) completely out to dry

    I'm not bragging, I know very well how bad I am, but since I couldn't rank up and i just kept losing, I spent hours in training as a gold, grinding new Freestyle mechanics, from air dribble, ceiling shots, flip resets, double taps, and even flicks. I finally managed to solo que my may to d1, and I still grind mechanics, and I'm happy with this. These days I'm trying musty ceiling shots, which are super fun, flip resets to double taps, and a few others. Again, I'm not bragging, I'm absolute garbage in actual gameplay, but practicing tough mechanics and showing them off in low gameplay casual made me not quit rocket league lol
