I can see your drift cut out often, you can hold the drift button while on the air so it stays (or at least that happens to me) although you might accidentally flip somewhere
@andros4323 since the game is so new, most people dont really know how to play so it is kinda secret (tho i did spoil it and would delete the comment if domeone asked)
Leth, the leader pulls away from you twice at this point of the map. 1:27 I think it's a spot to improve. I almost looks like he hits a booster on the ceiling maybe?
You’ve gotta try aerial pitch mate! It makes most flights much cleaner/faster. Change it off inverse in the controller settings so it matches dodge directions, then you can use that and cut your thruster spend rate by like 75%. Huge tip: It’s coded so that any amount of thrust gives you a set amount of lifted flight time.. meaning if you use the quickest taps possible you can use 1% thrusters for .5+ seconds of lift.
@@OnewheelYamster Rocket Racing > Start > Settings > Game tab > Set “Invert Airborne Control” to OFF. Then, while airborne press the left stick up to fly up and down to fly down. If you need to go up faster, just press dodge and you don’t have to worry about moving the stick because it’s already up due to you pitching up. (Before, you would be pitching up with the stick down, and to dodge up you had to jerk the stick the other direction) And for the thrust, just use very short taps unless you need to gain a lot of height quickly.
Awesome Video! Love to see some racing content from you! I didnt know you played forza as well so thats cool to see it translate here! Have you tried any of the sim racing titles?
there is a mechanic on KBM that lets you pitch your car up/down while in the air, allowing you to turbo almost straight forward in the air without using any thrusters. you can also air pitch down to get to the ground quickly if a dodge isn't viable. it's a very useful mechanic that not many people know about, since it can only be found by looking through the keybind settings. (im also not sure if its supported on controller)
On controller it‘s just putting the left stick up or down, i wouldn‘t even call it a mechanic, it‘s like turning left or right on the ground, it‘s just normal in an arcady game like RR, no need to look in the settings
Yea I noticed Leth never uses aerial pitch, which is up and down on the left joystick. I disabled the inverse pitch so up goes up and it is way more natural because it now matches the dodge directions. You can fly 10 times as far in a more controllable way with pitch up and only tapping thrusters as needed every 1-2 seconds.
Question? I’m in Platinum 2 right now. I’ve been slowly climbing the ranks but you mentioned a 10 min queue for your games. Would you say it’s worth trying to climb to the higher ranks for the average player?
Yes. I’m D3 and get short queues, also this vid was put out a lil after it came out so more people have come onto it (allowing more lobby’s or and hopefully faster queues) 😅
This is the first time I've watched [a full] Rocket Racing video from you, Lethie. HOW THE F@$#%# ARE YOU SO GOOD!?!? I just slide into the walls when doing the powerslide... Also "Top 200 Tips and Tricks"..."? (In Title). 😅
you can press drift more times to rotate the car more aggressively. Other than that try to practice the traditional racing line and hit apexes to not hit walls
I would love to see a video about the technicality of rocket racing. Something similar to the channel Rocket Science but then for rocket racing instead
Wym by "hours almost a day now"? Like your queue times are 1+ hours for the past day? If that's what you meant, then say it ain't so... I'm Diamond III trying to get to your level for those crimson rims xD That sounds miserable though. There isn't much you can do about the wait times, because it is dependent on player count + skill based matchmaking, things get really narrowed down at the highest ranks. My advice is to maybe try getting a full squad to play with you. They will be playing at your rank, assuming you're the highest out of them. In matchmaking, you and your three other squad mates could possibly fill lobbies quicker. If ya wanna try it man you should drop your Epic gamertag, or add me: "Cedricsοn".
Sadly, Rocket Racing usually sees the least amount of players out of the three new gamemodes as well. Sometimes it straddles on the same numbers as Festival Main Stage
Same as the other directional dodges (left, right, up): Press your assigned Air Dodge button (check under Settings > Controller Mapping) while holding the left joystick downward. I recommend turning off “Inverse View” under Settings > Game, otherwise you will be holding the left stick down to pitch up while flying, making it hard to dodge downward.
Im about 85% Diamond 3, about to hit Elite. I know you lose progress for backing out early but i was just wondering if anyone knows if you eventually start losing progress for poor performance in any of the later rankings like Elite, Champion or Unreal? I ask because between crashing and losing concentration i tend to get bottom 3 just as often as i get top 3. Just wondering if I’ll eventually hit a progress wall so-to-speak.
I will say it in my native language: tanta demora en liberar el garaje para que las OEM que pintaban a verse mejor por el toque plateado clasico sean solo un poco mas claras que las grises, indignante but great video, thanks
Learn the best paths round tracks, and drift a lot. As much as possible round any corner, pretty much. Then worry about advanced stuff after you’ve got those down
Ngl i was disappointed when i saw this at first, but outside of the whole rocket league ip it seems like it could be it's own thing, and definitely with a high skill ceiling
Not my sort of game to play, but the content is fire. Its exiting to watch already.. I hope they listen to player feedback and keep pushing up the skill ceiling.. if so the game has promise?
I'm watching Lethamyr and i'm thinking, DANG i'll never be that good. I thought I was doing well getting to Platinum 1 considering most of my time i'm playing the real game BR Zero Build. I'll never pull off moves like this guy. Thats it I quit gaming as whole you've killed it fore me lol jk.
@@52blitzzjust a matter of experience, the more you play the more you‘re gonna know when to start a drift in each turn, if you need to press the drift button again in a long turn to drift tighter/longer, how much you need to steer/countersteer, things like that
I'm silver and play with a friend who's Plat 2. I end up in 12th a lot but I'm surprised how easily I catch up sometimes so I think there's something there.
Kinda, because there‘s drafting. If you‘re close enough behind someone you‘ll be faster, so there’s kind of a snowball effect where ultimately the 1st probably will be caught up by players behind. This game is all about optimizing your lowest speed by knowing the best routes, boost pads location, and drift lines. And knowing the best times to use your boost charges. So in the end the rubberbanding exists but it‘s way less important than skill.
No way bro is pro at Rocket League and Rocket racing,
The dedication!!
I can see your drift cut out often, you can hold the drift button while on the air so it stays (or at least that happens to me) although you might accidentally flip somewhere
Yep we call it Drift Boost Stall, or DBS (as I mentioned later in this vid for a second)

@@calcite_block nah, dont gatekeep it
The Peppermint face guy used to be a bot in all of my lobbies in Chapter 3 and if I got a bounty, he'd be my target. Every single game. LOL
Leth, the leader pulls away from you twice at this point of the map. 1:27 I think it's a spot to improve. I almost looks like he hits a booster on the ceiling maybe?
Leth’s route with the double boosters is better, the leader is just using a bunch of boost afterwards
Leth's face in the thumbnail is just so funny to me
Looks like he seen some massive cheeks walks by him
Dang just reached elite today. Competition is crazy
Great racing bro, you should make a rocket racing playlist so I can binge all of your videos on it easily 😁
Finally did it
I’m loving the rocket racing videos!! Keep it up
How do u boost while drifting?

6:52 16:09 GG
Man 10:45 was such a beautiful recovery!
6:06 I love the air turn but I’d risk a boost it with a boost while air turning AND rolling. 😊
Wdym drafting off of you? Can you use other players to go faster?
You can get slipstream by being close behind someone
@@Lethamyr thanks
@lethamyr 1:12 if you waited a second, “jumped” off the ledge for a small air boost AND then turbo’s you’d get more speed
Im about 50% through Diamond III right now. Been loving the fact that they added the rocket race this season!!
This is the first time I've watched [a full] Rocket Racing video from you, Lethie.
HOW THE F@$#%# ARE YOU SO GOOD!?!? I just slide into the walls when doing the powerslide...
Also "Top 200 Tips and Tricks"..."? (In Title). 😅
Hes a top 200 player
you can press drift more times to rotate the car more aggressively. Other than that try to practice the traditional racing line and hit apexes to not hit walls
Thanks G 😏@@doubletrouble786
I actually did perform better with the drifting last night, after seeing how Leth did it too 😏
I really need to learn shortcuts. I’ll be in top 3 then half way through the race, everyone catches up
Getting 2nd for 1% in diamond 3 is pain
@Lethamyr is there something that indicates you drafting with another player?
Your car will have a slipstream effect. Looks like air swirling around the car
I would love to see a video about the technicality of rocket racing. Something similar to the channel Rocket Science but then for rocket racing instead
im comin for you leth! I may not be amazing at RL but RR is a different story
Airborne 2 was actually also my elite map absolutely going to be a retro favorite in the future
This is one of the sweatiest RR games I’ve seen 😮 this game can actually be very competitive
Can proudly say I still haven't even played this
weird flex
No way Leth's friend noticed the comment that I said last rocket racing video. 2:06
I've been stuck on champion 68-74 for hours almost a day now, any advice?

No chance
How do you downwards flip

Great vids leth! Love the content!❤️
I finally hit unreal today was hype
Ngl I thought this was cap until I checked the leaderboard, nice!
Yeah, yeah, I bet you did...pffffftt LMAO.
Osu player, kek.
@@ish_ thanks
@@Hartmann87 lol... still did though
I have troubles getting into your vids but love your style a vids
wait so when you get to elite and above you cant go down?
I think where you kept falling behind at is when u kept hitting the red zone to the side of the tracks and u kept losing hella speed
I love this game mode. I'm currently Platinum 1 and really enjoy the game!
This fucking game mode is complete bullshit at rewarding skill and punishing small slip ups like no other
bruh you're tellin' me, I just reached diamond 3 and yes it is not exaggerated that there is no room for errors unless you wanna be last place lol.
@@Cedricsonliterally in diamond 3 and I keep coming in 6th😭

Man is so satisfying viewing u playing keep with the videos regularly 🤍
You down to run top ranked together on ranked racing current top 250 myself
Nice job. Now get to Champ :p
I hope those white oem's look better in RL otherwise I'mma just stop the grind at diamond 3 xD
You're pretty crazy, I used your code to get the nice frosted Draco purple wheels for 900c.
I thought that when u get to unreal u cant demote?
You can't hit Diamond once you hit elite, you can't demote at all once you hit Unreal
Got titanium white oem’s from a drop on rl so mine transferred over so I didn’t have to grind to get em
Take a break
tbh Im happy even elite players messes up sometimes
now Im D1 but I want unreal in every mode oneday
What I think should happen is they should turn off collusions bc it feels you get messed up by other people hitting u on a drift
I will say it in my native language:
tanta demora en liberar el garaje para que las OEM que pintaban a verse mejor por el toque plateado clasico sean solo un poco mas claras que las grises, indignante
but great video, thanks

ur amazing at this
if u can pls give me tips im sliver 3 much needed
congrats have a great day!!!!!!!!
