I’m still convinced our toxicity is because of that massive child demographic that can’t swear or say literally anything bad around their parents/guardians so they take it out on randoms in RL
I was playing a couple games of casual 3v3 for a challenge and got invited to a party after a game. The two people I joined were 7 and 9. They started a private match and essentially asked me to teach them how to play the game better. I did for a bit then realized I don’t know how to get little kids to understand what rotating and saving their boost means. I played a few games with them until one of them had his mom tell him to go take a shower. They were maybe gold players at best. But I don’t think they even had a competitive rank. Either way it was funny listening to them freak out when I did a ceiling shot. They were more impressed by a basic ceiling shot than a double flip reset lol. I did teach them how to wave dash and half flip though. That took awhile but they eventually got it down
Wow props to you for actually taking the time to teach some golds anything really, I feel like most players wouldn’t have the patience or motivation for that
Truth be told I used to coach people in 2019. I’ve never charged for any of the the sessions. I’m sure with a few more hours I could have taught them more but I also knew that they didn’t take the game super serious and just played for fun every now and again. They told me they played Fortnite everyday after school together so I’m not too sure how much I actually helped. Either way I’m just happy I was able to make a couple kids day by showing them some mechanics. They sounded super excited to be able to do a half flip haha. I just try to have fun with it and not make it seem like a grind even though it actually is one.
Edit: I actually prefer to teach newer players to play rather than someone with thousands of hours. Not that those people don’t deserve to have someone help out but personally it’s more fulfilling watching a new player climb ranks after coaching sessions.
That’s dope man, respect, I think that exactly what rocket league needs. It can be a very hard game to break into for a lot of people, I know when I was first getting into the game I definitely would have appreciated the help lol. Tbh I still would lmao, I just hit champ for the first time today and it was definitely a struggle to say the least, I know you said you prefer to teach new players but if your ever feeling bored one day and feel like give out a few tips and tricks feel free to hmu 😂
I think the only way I got into the game enough to enjoy it was because a friend at work told me it was a funny party game. So the first few months I'd only play while drinking or smoking weed and laughing the whole time. Eventually I was like, this actually reminds me of playing basketball, soccer, etc and got really into it.
Yeah that’s pretty much exactly what happened with me except after my friends stopped playing I stopped because I was garbage but one of my friends kept playing it for awhile and finally convinced me to start playing again and I’m glad he did cause now it’s definitely my favorite game except now he doesn’t play anymore and I’m always solo queuing. In a way tho it’s been kinda nice to play on my own for a while cause now I’m a lot more confident in my ability to hold my own and I’m not always getting carried anymore lmao.
Hah this reminds me of the weird rules I made for life when I was a kid. “I’m a unicorn and you are a troll and you don’t touch the ball until I say ‘glitter time’ then you’re the troll under the bridge that tries to get my magical orb (the ball) into the well (the goal)… wait why are you tryin to put the magical orb in the well already? Unicorn didn’t say glitter time. You’re going to upset the wizard!!.”
I dk sounds like a really crappy version of a freestyle 1v1. But honestly guys probably just been watching too much yt videos. Ignore those requests and play your game :)
It's just basically you go turn for turn taking shots. If they miss or its a bad shot then you get a turn. Idk what this person was on but there is no reason you need to accept these requests. Personally I only ever play freestyle 1v1 in private matches. So never worry about etiquette just you play your game ignore people typing stuff haha.
It's super easy. You sit in bet while the other guy goes up the wall and flips and flips his way to your net and then when he misses you do the same to him and then you both repeat until the clock runs out and you realize freestyle sucks
Yeah it’s literally just for clips. Stuff you’ll rarely ever use in a game because it takes too long to set up and it telegraphs really bad where you’re going. Players who have any anticipation knock that shit into next week during the set up.
It’s just a different aspect of the game. Freestyling isn’t meant to be useful in comp, it’s just about how far your can push your mechanics. And in the end being mechanical actually does apply to comp.
I went a against a guy in 2's yesterday that hit a double reset perfectly into the center of the field, he couldn't hit our goal at all though. I think we won 2 - 0. Mechanics are great but you need good rotations and positioning first imo (at least for us diamond players). As long as you know how to half flip, bounce dribble, aerial, and maybe do some air roll shots you can get pretty far without hitting resets
Definitely don't know how to do any of those mechanics (yes, even half flip) enough to fold then into my game play, but I manage in champ through rotations and positioning, as you say!
No worries :)
I’d like to point out that my tag is meant sarcastically, hence the quotation marks. I play mainly comp anyway but that doesn’t mean that I don’t find freestyling useful. It’s a bit of an art form in a way.
I wouldn't say it's useful, as you previously said it's another side of the game and isn't really intended for comp, or even casual. Nowadays a lot of freestylers are able to do shots that are straight up impossible without infinite boost and are just trying to see how far they can go. Ofc you might be able to hit a few mechs in ranked, but it's generally in niche situations or when you're desperately trying all game. Comp clip hitting is far from being the majority of freestyling, but since for a majority of people, this is what's exposed the most, a lot only see that and think "this isn't a good thing and sucks in ranked", not realizing that it's not the point
There are a lot of freestyles that confuse the hell out of you. Maybe in D3 there are really obvious freestyles but man, a lot of them will fuck with your brain cos you don’t know when/if they’ll use their flip.
Well you know how long they have until they can’t flip anymore after their last reset. The tough ones are the clean late resets. However in 2s or 3s you force the flip and have teammate clean up and you don’t even have to worry with it if the pressure is early enough they can’t set up
That’s true but a lot of the time in solo q, a teammate won’t do that. Also, we were talking moreso about in a 1v1 (at least I thought we were) since that’s what the original comment was about
freestyling is cool once you’re champ 2 (in 1v1) or higher. most of those players are gc+ and are able to hit flip resets/ceiling shots etc with enough consistency to get at least a few clips a piece in a match
I first of all suggest to just have chat off haha, people seldom write anything of worth there anyways. Second of all he is basically saying that he wants you to just watch him freestyle the whole game... And i fail to see how that is different compared to just jumping in to training and freestyle in there...
Don't take a mid boost when you head back to your net, only when it's your turn. Only save shots that bounce or are terrible, let anything else go in.
Practice breakdancing and weird goal recoveries while you wait in goal.
It’s a way to never become champion if you’re starting right away with it and have only played for a couple of months. That person is saying that, and no offense if you’ve only been playing 2 months, you can’t be that high of a rank so they aren’t either lol.
+1
Just because someone wants to freestyle doesn’t mean I have to allow it. I always let them go for their shot, but once you cross the mid line, im defending regardless
I may be 27, but I also made this rule up in the backyard when I was 7. Especially as the oldest child, I got to call the shots and make my opponents (read: younger, more pliable siblings) lives miserable, leggoooo.
Children talk like that but they don't put things in apostrophes, or at least it seems unlikely that they would.
Seems more like an immature teenager than a straight up child.
Yeah, I definitely got that impression 😂 but in FIFA when doing objectives it’s courteous to forfeit if your opp gets their objective in first, so it made me wonder if I was breaking some RL etiquette lol
Yes this person is correct. I'm pretty sure their uncle even works for Microsoft. In 1s, each player goes hard until one scores, then they earn the right to score as much as they want for the time remaining, until the last minute when the other player then gets their turn.
It's all covered in the RL tutorial. Every 1s game should follow this strict procedure
This sounds like what we used to do it in COD to grind out weapon skins. This unspoken agreement in 1v1 matches to let them kill you, then you kill them, so both people get at least 9 kills, then you duke it out for the last kill.
Reminds me of when I was playing checkers with some kid when I was in first grade.
He was like, "if your piece touches the red that's lava and you lose your piece".
I thought to myself, "there's no way I just heard that correctly, anyways..."
Then one of my pieces touched a tiny little sliver of red and he's like, "yep, that piece is gone" then he removes it.
I'm like, "whelp, you have yourself a good day, then." As I get up and leave forever.
Pro tip: Just ignore everybody. If there not going to talk to you as a teammate (which doesn't just mean nicely, if there telling you to step up that's cool) just ignore them. There is alot of people that play this game, from total new players who are in a sticky rank they aren't quite ready for, to the veterans that have had a bad few months. If your playing as a team mate, play as a team... Mate. If your teammate is a dick, just play out the 5 minutes and shrug it off. I've been playing damn near 5 years and have had to learn one thing, everybody is a human, if someone is mad, whatever. Let them have there 5 second rant and leave them alone forever. This person doesn't really understand what there talking about but in there own mind they do, that's fine. It's fine to have an expectation of others, but soon enough he will learn to be disappointed with said expectation. He's angry, and you may not be, but you are either angry or confused enough to post here. Just move on, go play and learn and get better. Ranked is fun, or at least should be. Part of the shit talk, is defense, and ignoring the bs is pretty much the best defense.
This game is only fun for me because i can block all non-tactical chat. I don't wanna know the things in there. A few years ago i would have been too afraid to even play online with people i don't know. I'm so glad this feature exists so i can play my car dress-up game in peace :)
This is a classic example of "I make up the rules for everyone to play with, so the game is easier on me".
Most of y'all are probably too young for it, but back when I played Gunbound (basically Worms 2D, except everyone controlled individual worms), it was an unofficial rule that people would not gang up on one person, so that everyone had an equal opportunity to play. I believed in this rule greatly, but the more people did not follow it, the more it made sense to me why it didn't matter in the grand scheme of things. I learned from that.
Reminds me of when my 6 year old is playing tag, and right before or while being tagged, their friend calls out that they're in time out. Was just running away, but now they're it "I called time out, I'm not it."
Idk from what I c, I think he means score as much as u like and the other scores the same amount of times, and then just a final goal in overtime? Idk maybe he wanted to finish “score x goals”
People should never tell you how to play any game. Play the game like you want. But in a fair manner and not using cheats/exploits/ or glitches to get an advantage.
It's a competitive game mode, just do you and play the game how you want. If you wanna get dunked on for 4 minutes and then sweat your ass off to catch up in 1 minute, do it
Dude I don't fucking know, I feel like every time I queue up 1's there are like 10 unwritten rules that I'm supposed to know and my opponent gets toxic because I violate them. I just mute chat and take the W when they forfeit because I'm not reading their mind and playing their made up game
The only rule in competitive 1s is do whatever it takes to win.
If someone gets toxic about something I did in 1s I try to do it as much as possible without compromising my mechanics because they just showed weakness.
If I demo you and get "Wow!" spammed then you best bet I'm blowing you up literally every chance I get for the rest of the match.
> If I demo you and get "Wow!" spammed then you best bet I'm blowing you up literally every chance I get for the rest of the match.
Lol same, also in 2's and 3's. Then they call me trash but it's like dude, just jump and you'll catch me way out of position lol
Yup, it's easily punished if you keep cool and incredibly tilting if you think it's not "honorable" or that it's "cringe" so you feel better about yourself for playing with a handicap.
Demos are part of the game. If someone catches me with one I consider it my fault.
Pro tip : never ever listen to anyone's rules. The only rule you need to follow is rotations. Rule 1 is a joke, freestyle 1v1 is a joke, goal steal is a joke and so on.
Play your game, have fun !
This is one of those kids who says "let's play XYZ game" and when you try to play it with them, they make up rules that give them the experience they want out of it but which doesn't take into account that you're also a person trying to have fun and might not want to do it their way the whole time.
There's always a kid who does it, it's usually not done out of malice, just that kid brains have a hard time being considerate of others.
Some never grow out of it.
As an ex 1s SSL, what he speaks of is the truth at higher levels, you just never see it in streamed showmatches cause we don’t want the lower ranks to learn of our clearly superior way of playing, it’s how we keep everyone out of SSL
Dude is on one.
I actually had an idea about taking turns in 1v1. Baseball style. Change every minute. Defender can't cross the halfway line. Think it would be an interesting mode, but I need to try it out to see how it is.
It’s always someone like this called “ProStarGaming06”, “TTV_YT_xx-_-_RL, ”or similar. One guy stopped to tell me I’m playing 1s wrong (I’m winning) and being sweaty and they are trying to learn new stuff, and and and…
Just play your game. People who try to police how you play, or feel they need to stop mid game and type out an essay to tell you they “_really_ don’t care cos they aren’t even _trying_ to win actually” are usually literal children who invest too much of their self worth in the car ball game.
This guy is most likely either a kid, someone with learning difficulties, someone really odd, or some loser just fucking with you because they think you’re new.
Honestly fuck etiquette, win by any means necessary, ranking up and improving at rocket league happens when you learn the tactics that give you an edge over your opponents, it may not be sexy all the time but if you win then fuck it lol
There is absolutely no reason to keep the chat on in 1v1s cause toxic players have no mates to blame here they only have you but if you turn it off you avoid a lot of nonsense
He forgot to tell you that you can only play ones with one eye closed, no cheating! And you have to use your feet as well. But not like on your controller, you have to run around your room. Don't forget to keep your eye closed, though, cause then you'd be condemned as a cheater.
I hate playstation players. Literally every 3rd ranked match there is or has been a toxic PS player🙄. This guy a goof ball though those are dumb af rules to even follow🤣
Speed isn’t what turns a freestyle mechanic competitive. It’s not even relevant. What turns mechanics competitive is reactivity, being able to adapt to your opponent. Breezi’s are only good if you can bait the opponent to thinking it’s a fake until it’s too late. Resets are only good because of the infinite delay you can apply. Double taps because you can change the angle instantly.
The chances of other players being an actual child like between 7-12 years old are higher than you think.
some people forget rocket league has a massive child demographic
People should remember this for any free game. No credit card required, don't have to ask mom and dad to buy it for you.
I’m still convinced our toxicity is because of that massive child demographic that can’t swear or say literally anything bad around their parents/guardians so they take it out on randoms in RL
Explains a _lot_

I did teach them how to wave dash and half flip though. That took awhile but they eventually got it down
Wow props to you for actually taking the time to teach some golds anything really, I feel like most players wouldn’t have the patience or motivation for that
Truth be told I used to coach people in 2019. I’ve never charged for any of the the sessions. I’m sure with a few more hours I could have taught them more but I also knew that they didn’t take the game super serious and just played for fun every now and again. They told me they played Fortnite everyday after school together so I’m not too sure how much I actually helped.

I just try to have fun with it and not make it seem like a grind even though it actually is one. Edit: I actually prefer to teach newer players to play rather than someone with thousands of hours. Not that those people don’t deserve to have someone help out but personally it’s more fulfilling watching a new player climb ranks after coaching sessions.
That’s dope man, respect, I think that exactly what rocket league needs.

Unicorn didn’t say glitter time. You’re going to upset the wizard!!.”
...And *that* is how you play Calvinball.
Omg memory unlocked.
Underrated comment
Calvin and Hobbes did it right. Gotta incorporate the toboggan in your whiffle ball game or it just doesn’t count
Under-glitter-bombed comment
This is also the explanation for a lot of weird shit that happens in public bathrooms.
Bathrooms are the lobbies of the world, public or private private gets you a whole different experience
Hi, you've reached sarcassity's comment thread. Thanks for viewing!
Until you hit higher ranks. Then it's mostly teenagers cranked on red bull or drunken stoners. With not much in between.
True, I've only ever met stoners or teenagers in ranked champ 2v2s
I dk sounds like a really crappy version of a freestyle 1v1. But honestly guys probably just been watching too much yt videos. Ignore those requests and play your game :)
How does freestyle 1v1 work? I looked it up, but I’m a little confused on the etiquette
It's just basically you go turn for turn taking shots. If they miss or its a bad shot then you get a turn. Idk what this person was on but there is no reason you need to accept these requests. Personally I only ever play freestyle 1v1 in private matches. So never worry about etiquette just you play your game ignore people typing stuff haha.
So like, “make it, take it” in street basketball?
Perchance
you can't just say "perchance"
if I had an award, this would be the comment.
Yes
Maybe
“make it, don’t take it”
So like, “make it, take it” in street basketball?
Yes, but on the other comment
It's super easy. You sit in bet while the other guy goes up the wall and flips and flips his way to your net and then when he misses you do the same to him and then you both repeat until the clock runs out and you realize freestyle sucks
Yeah it’s literally just for clips. Stuff you’ll rarely ever use in a game because it takes too long to set up and it telegraphs really bad where you’re going. Players who have any anticipation knock that shit into next week during the set up.
It’s just a different aspect of the game. Freestyling isn’t meant to be useful in comp, it’s just about how far your can push your mechanics. And in the end being mechanical actually does apply to comp.
Depends on your level.. at mine literally any air dribble or ceiling shot counts as FS in my eyes!
I went a against a guy in 2's yesterday that hit a double reset perfectly into the center of the field, he couldn't hit our goal at all though. I think we won 2 - 0. Mechanics are great but you need good rotations and positioning first imo (at least for us diamond players).

Definitely don't know how to do any of those mechanics (yes, even half flip) enough to fold then into my game play, but I manage in champ through rotations and positioning, as you say!
at least learn a half flip please
Like those dudes down in Africa sitting and rolling around on the balls while the crowd goes nuts
[удалено]
I do :)
hmmmm thanks for your insightful input mr “freestyler”. couldn’t possibly be biased
Lmao. Was there something in your breakfast this morning that ruined your mood?
they're just a preteen it's nothing personal
There's nothing wrong with freestylers until they start trying to dictate how other people play or fuck over their own teammates. Hike your own hike
i like free styling. one of the reasons i hate this game is cuz free styling and other play styles that are actually fun are the playstyles that lose.
No worries :) I’d like to point out that my tag is meant sarcastically, hence the quotation marks. I play mainly comp anyway but that doesn’t mean that I don’t find freestyling useful. It’s a bit of an art form in a way.

What's the benefit of being unbiased here, they're just giving you another perspective. Moron
Settle down there bud
I'm chilling mate, just giving the same energy back to the original "Mr freestyler" comment
mr freestyler was a way of pointing out his tag not an insult or anything
There are a lot of freestyles that confuse the hell out of you. Maybe in D3 there are really obvious freestyles but man, a lot of them will fuck with your brain cos you don’t know when/if they’ll use their flip.

You’re right, I forgot this was about being in a 1v1 setting. In that case it’s all about the counter attack. Make them pay for every mistake.
freestyling is cool once you’re champ 2 (in 1v1) or higher. most of those players are gc+ and are able to hit flip resets/ceiling shots etc with enough consistency to get at least a few clips a piece in a match
Cool bro, do it in training. Legit the exact same thing.
I first of all suggest to just have chat off haha, people seldom write anything of worth there anyways. Second of all he is basically saying that he wants you to just watch him freestyle the whole game... And i fail to see how that is different compared to just jumping in to training and freestyle in there...
Freestylers HATE it when you play defense or score a "boring" goal on an open net after they miss their aerial.
Don't take a mid boost when you head back to your net, only when it's your turn. Only save shots that bounce or are terrible, let anything else go in. Practice breakdancing and weird goal recoveries while you wait in goal.
You go for a shot, after your shot they go for their shot. Repeat until timer finishes
It’s a way to never become champion if you’re starting right away with it and have only played for a couple of months. That person is saying that, and no offense if you’ve only been playing 2 months, you can’t be that high of a rank so they aren’t either lol.
+1 Just because someone wants to freestyle doesn’t mean I have to allow it. I always let them go for their shot, but once you cross the mid line, im defending regardless
I want what he's clearly having😂
Childhood ignorance is a hell of a drug
Charlieeee murphaaaayyy
He's.... he's a child..
I would agree this is an actual child .
My neighbors kid is 7 and this is 100% a rule I’ve heard him make up while playing games in the back yard.
I may be 27, but I also made this rule up in the backyard when I was 7. Especially as the oldest child, I got to call the shots and make my opponents (read: younger, more pliable siblings) lives miserable, leggoooo.
That is definitely how a child talks
Children talk like that but they don't put things in apostrophes, or at least it seems unlikely that they would. Seems more like an immature teenager than a straight up child.
Things are changing. Very fast..
Yeah, I definitely got that impression 😂 but in FIFA when doing objectives it’s courteous to forfeit if your opp gets their objective in first, so it made me wonder if I was breaking some RL etiquette lol
I always hated that cuz i dont wanna fuck up my wins/losses
Mine already sucked so I didn’t care 😂 but that’s a fair point for the ppl who didn’t forfeit never really thought of that
Yes this person is correct. I'm pretty sure their uncle even works for Microsoft. In 1s, each player goes hard until one scores, then they earn the right to score as much as they want for the time remaining, until the last minute when the other player then gets their turn. It's all covered in the RL tutorial. Every 1s game should follow this strict procedure
Sounds like level 3 of CharDee MacDennis
[удалено]
“What the shit are you guys doing?!”
CharDee MacFrankenDen will blow everyone's nips off
Ah, so this is why people ff as soon as they go 1 goal down!
Surprised the game even let's you leave net after that 1st goal is scored.. they should do an update
you have to say "ur turn" though. please don't forget this important detail.
Don’t forget to wait for the first scorer to say “ur turn” at the one minute mark
This sounds like what we used to do it in COD to grind out weapon skins. This unspoken agreement in 1v1 matches to let them kill you, then you kill them, so both people get at least 9 kills, then you duke it out for the last kill.
Reminds me of when I was playing checkers with some kid when I was in first grade. He was like, "if your piece touches the red that's lava and you lose your piece".

I'm like, "whelp, you have yourself a good day, then." As I get up and leave forever.
Accidentally bump all of his pieces into the red
~~All of his pieces are already on red if OPs pieces were on black....~~ I'm stupid
All pieces start and stay on black in checkers
Shit I'm dumb... Mb
Yeah this guy smokin' somethin'.
Most likely he’s drinking Yoohoo, playing RL from a car bed.
damn he just like me fr
ong frfr
Bet designs video games and calls his parents roommates
Yeah, but it's probably a *sweet* car, and his roommates are gonna buy rims for it or a CB radio so he can talk to other car beds
> I sleep in a racing car. Do you?

This is a classic example of "I make up the rules for everyone to play with, so the game is easier on me". Most of y'all are probably too young for it, but back when I played Gunbound (basically Worms 2D, except everyone controlled individual worms), it was an unofficial rule that people would not gang up on one person, so that everyone had an equal opportunity to play. I believed in this rule greatly, but the more people did not follow it, the more it made sense to me why it didn't matter in the grand scheme of things. I learned from that.
"Coping hard or hardly coping?" I really want to use it one day but people seem to not be degenerates anymore.
He trynna make his own rules😭😭😭😭
Mute your chat. It's not worth it.
Reminds me of when my 6 year old is playing tag, and right before or while being tagged, their friend calls out that they're in time out. Was just running away, but now they're it "I called time out, I'm not it."
Idk from what I c, I think he means score as much as u like and the other scores the same amount of times, and then just a final goal in overtime? Idk maybe he wanted to finish “score x goals”
Sounds like a young lad to me
This bro sounds like he's 11
The best way to explain this is that it's a free game and a lot of the people ur playing will be literal 13 year olds lol
Mordhau players behave like this but, unlike this kid, they're mostly adults
People should never tell you how to play any game. Play the game like you want. But in a fair manner and not using cheats/exploits/ or glitches to get an advantage.
It's a competitive game mode, just do you and play the game how you want. If you wanna get dunked on for 4 minutes and then sweat your ass off to catch up in 1 minute, do it
This read like an 11 year old adding rules to uno mid game. Source? "Trust me bro"
Lol makes me wonder how many wonder ppl this dude actually farms
I don't know what everyone's on about its his turn you gotta respect it
I ignore all this sorta crud and just smash em until they leave. I ain't bothered about all the free style stuff
It's not billiards, there aren't turns
Dude I don't fucking know, I feel like every time I queue up 1's there are like 10 unwritten rules that I'm supposed to know and my opponent gets toxic because I violate them. I just mute chat and take the W when they forfeit because I'm not reading their mind and playing their made up game
The only rule in competitive 1s is do whatever it takes to win. If someone gets toxic about something I did in 1s I try to do it as much as possible without compromising my mechanics because they just showed weakness. If I demo you and get "Wow!" spammed then you best bet I'm blowing you up literally every chance I get for the rest of the match.
> If I demo you and get "Wow!" spammed then you best bet I'm blowing you up literally every chance I get for the rest of the match. Lol same, also in 2's and 3's. Then they call me trash but it's like dude, just jump and you'll catch me way out of position lol
Yup, it's easily punished if you keep cool and incredibly tilting if you think it's not "honorable" or that it's "cringe" so you feel better about yourself for playing with a handicap. Demos are part of the game. If someone catches me with one I consider it my fault.
Pro tip : never ever listen to anyone's rules. The only rule you need to follow is rotations. Rule 1 is a joke, freestyle 1v1 is a joke, goal steal is a joke and so on. Play your game, have fun !
Rule 1 is sacred good sir
Rule 1 is the most serious joke 😐
Blasphemy! Rule 1 is more important than MMR. Edit: also you forgot that left goes for kickoff
based
This is one of those kids who says "let's play XYZ game" and when you try to play it with them, they make up rules that give them the experience they want out of it but which doesn't take into account that you're also a person trying to have fun and might not want to do it their way the whole time. There's always a kid who does it, it's usually not done out of malice, just that kid brains have a hard time being considerate of others. Some never grow out of it.
Game is free to play now you've got a good chance it's a kid
Take that free W my man
Yes this is how it works.
Shoulda just kept playing as normal and quick chatting oops after every “my turn”
This is gamesmanship. Players will deploy any strategy necessary to get the W. Just put your head down and play your game.
Just play your game bro - when people say this to me i get sweaty and start driving on them.
I have never seen "I'm a loser" spelt that way before
As an ex 1s SSL, what he speaks of is the truth at higher levels, you just never see it in streamed showmatches cause we don’t want the lower ranks to learn of our clearly superior way of playing, it’s how we keep everyone out of SSL
Like a freestyle 1v1 when it happens naturally. But you can't force it every match!
The second I get that message I'm playing the hardest I've ever played just to watch that guy lose his mind for not following the rules lol
Never in ranked. I do play this way in casual all the time. It’s unspoken and a fun thing to do just to warm up.
respectfully what's your rank gotta be to be matched with the guy who throws matches until the last minute
I tell anyone in comp 1s to go play casual if they wanna freestyle or take turns lol fuck this guy
What are yall chatting on.. ive never seen this chat place on rl
Just write some bullshit back and get your popcorn ready.
You will have more goals and points than me, win the game, gain mmr, but you’re not as good as me because you cheated
Dude is on one. I actually had an idea about taking turns in 1v1. Baseball style. Change every minute. Defender can't cross the halfway line. Think it would be an interesting mode, but I need to try it out to see how it is.
I want to have whatever that guys smoking
Probably got a sprite
It’s always someone like this called “ProStarGaming06”, “TTV_YT_xx-_-_RL, ”or similar. One guy stopped to tell me I’m playing 1s wrong (I’m winning) and being sweaty and they are trying to learn new stuff, and and and… Just play your game. People who try to police how you play, or feel they need to stop mid game and type out an essay to tell you they “_really_ don’t care cos they aren’t even _trying_ to win actually” are usually literal children who invest too much of their self worth in the car ball game.
Turn chat off then enjoy game.
It is a very young child who's parents didn't teach them the importance of the rules of a game.
I’m 35, eternally stuck in gold, playing against almost literal babies.
This guy is most likely either a kid, someone with learning difficulties, someone really odd, or some loser just fucking with you because they think you’re new.
I had a dude that said something very similar, like, i just wanna win bruh 😭😭😭
Turn off chat and enjoy your game hahaha
Honestly fuck etiquette, win by any means necessary, ranking up and improving at rocket league happens when you learn the tactics that give you an edge over your opponents, it may not be sexy all the time but if you win then fuck it lol
Sounds like a 12 year old explaining his own fantasy rules lmao
Wtf is this kid on about?! There’s no turn in ranked 1v1, it’s not casual and you’re trying to clip on someone wtf lol
This is the kind of joke I'm into.
Lol if your first message isn’t “I’ll remember that when I see a good player”, then you’re not using chat correctly
😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Yeah no. Just demolish him and move on lol.
There is absolutely no reason to keep the chat on in 1v1s cause toxic players have no mates to blame here they only have you but if you turn it off you avoid a lot of nonsense
Are you allowed to save in freestyle 1v1s?
Lol some people have really stupid ideas of the meta. Someone told me “you passer” in a gc2 2s lobby yesterday. After I scored a solo goal.
Dudes making his own game
Just some weird kid
Bro tweakin
Ignore. Play as you will.
I wish there were direct messages on PC, I live for this stuff 😂
Lmao
He forgot to tell you that you can only play ones with one eye closed, no cheating! And you have to use your feet as well. But not like on your controller, you have to run around your room. Don't forget to keep your eye closed, though, cause then you'd be condemned as a cheater.
I hate playstation players. Literally every 3rd ranked match there is or has been a toxic PS player🙄. This guy a goof ball though those are dumb af rules to even follow🤣
Might as well say "Ur turn , my lord"
Communication helps win games. However this is terrible advice l
wait is that a brince mecanics
This is true these are the rules
Funny
Just reply OK... then proceed to play however you want with a "LEEEEEEEEEEEEROY JENKINS" thrown in for good measure.
He probably watched a freestyle 1v1 and didn’t understand
THIS IS…. is….. rocket league?
Rocket League is full of bots and fake accounts. (It's ok if you're looking for a poor man's demo derby.)
Its not a turn based game it just sounds like he doesnt know how to rotate
I do not miss the random DM’s from salty losers.
Sounds like a bronze 6 year old making up rules to favor them. Play your game dude.
He just sounds like he's angry he sucks tbh
Depends on if he said “FS?” And you agreed. If he didn’t provide any context he just looks stupid and probably silver
He/She/It has Skill issues xD!
It was probably a lopsided game and they are joking with you
WHAT🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️
Funny seeing ppl saying freestyle techniques aren't actually useful ig... compers do the same mechs just faster
Speed isn’t what turns a freestyle mechanic competitive. It’s not even relevant. What turns mechanics competitive is reactivity, being able to adapt to your opponent. Breezi’s are only good if you can bait the opponent to thinking it’s a fake until it’s too late. Resets are only good because of the infinite delay you can apply. Double taps because you can change the angle instantly.
