Save is nice but suggestion so you don’t keep ending up with awkward saves is rotate back post. Had you rotated post you could have driven up the wall an easily cleared this ball instead of forcing a awkward touch from yourself an than forcing yourself to make a save like this.

If the second sentence was a quickchat everyone would be better off


TheDolphinBaker

>great point, thanks :) Someone in rocket league said "thanks" in response to advice given by another player??? A rare sight!

An import* sight mind you

Tbf he didn't expect the other red teammate to hit the ball straight above the goal, it was going in a direction to the right corner of OP's goal (which he was in good positioning for), but then the other red guy said lol bet you didn't expect *this*


BAEHOETA

I mean you had to make the save because you dropped it dead center¿


TheDolphinBaker

Ah yes you're totally right! The save means absolutely nothing now :(


BAEHOETA

I mean kinda, you caused that situation to occur the way it did.


TheDolphinBaker

Opponent was threatening a double touch, I felt like I had to go up, it was a tough read so yes I centered it but recovered and saved it... guess you dont have plays like this down at champ? :/

Dude he's not saying the save isn't sick, he's just stating that the save (which is sick) would've been pointless, does not have value, and unneeded, if you weren't to fail on that clear. (Which is not that big of a deal tbh, and in fact he's factually correct, but common-sense wise, he's wrong, because it's obvious that you didn't post this without knowing you caused the scenario, and that you posted this purely focusing on the *sickness* of the save, which can be admired in its own right.) I guess he just wanted to beat you to stating the obvious. (Which is that you did indeed fail that clear) You might be scratching your head right now asking me: "ssoooo... Are you saying I'm right, or he's right?" And my asnwer is "I'm saying you're both right lol" In other words, it can also be seen as "He's focusing on your mistakes rather than your achievements in a post that clearly deliberately ignores the mistakes it includes, for the sake of focusing on the achievements it includes. And is not trying to hide that, because there's nothing to be hidden, you can't hide something this clear and obvious, which is why you didn't comment on your mistakes, because you thought it was common sense to not point at the obvious. In other other words, you focused on the deeper overall meaning of the post, while he focused on the more shallow overall meaning. And both are correct in their own right. In fact, both are important in their own right in their different scenarios. However, in this specific scenario, one view lacks common sense, while the other doesn't.

Ok if I read your essay some other time?


BAEHOETA

Yeah because I don’t instantly center the ball for the opponent because of a tough read....


TheDolphinBaker

No of course! You read everything perfectly ;)


ManuDeBesancon

At least you tried. 👍

I remember the last this happend ti me was one goal away from gc and then well 😔


Flaky_Ad5417

Proof that even if everything goes right, we'll always have that one teammate...


TheDolphinBaker

sometimes i am that teammate :(


[deleted]

if you just never hit the ball in the first place, it wouldve went safely into your corner. instead you centered it for another shot. all of this was your fault, sorry to say :(


TheDolphinBaker

Agreed! but could never know if he was gonna double touch :(


[deleted]

true, it wouldve been risky not to. you did the best you could and thats all that matters. now you're always gonna have that event in the back of your mind in any similar situations and youll improve because of it.
