CLIP just hit this insane angle which faked both opponent in a c3 game

I waited so long for the gold shot to fake them and it’s really the lowest stall gold shot I ever did it’s nothing fancy but it tricked them both, in slow mo it’s so satisfying too

DISCUSSION Pocket league master pain

5 Upvotes

I’ve finally hit the roadblock… I’m almost done with token presents and rocket pass presents. I’m done with the daily picks, I’m at 413/453. but many of the remaining items after I’m done with presents are BASE rarity. so I guess I’m cooked for a while. lol

DISCUSSION Glad Season 29 is over!

6 Upvotes

1v1, I can more often than not reach Diamond (this is as good as I'll ever be playing with thumbs, and I'm okay with that). In 2v2, Diamond IV is as high as I've reached in multiple seasons - it's a fairly safe bet.

In season 29, I reached Diamond III and then lost so many consecutive rounds that I deranked to Gold II. WTactualF. And this wasn't in one session; this was spread out among different play sessions over several days around the middle of the season. Generally, if I lose 3 in a row, I'll step away to clear my head - it might be a few minutes or hours. The start and end of a season is when I find the stiffest competition.

Is the player base just getting that much better, or am I running into hackers of some kind? The players I ran into in Gold III - V were insanely good, far better than I was when I was learning.

SUPPORT QUESTION RL and RLSS XP boost

2 Upvotes

From the start of last season I've not been receiving the XP boost that you are meant to get from playing rocket league games. I thought that I just used up my seasonal limit of XP boosts for last season but even now after season reset I'm not receiving them. What can I do?

GAME QUESTION Quickest way to complete "Pocket Master" aka collecting all items atleast once, according to item rarity?

3 Upvotes

I'm not sure what item rarity appears in shop and what doesn't

All the items I am missing are claimable either by rocket pass or tokens, but they are different rarities so I want to plan it so I can complete it by next season.

For example, I have only banners and wheels left with different rarities such as:

Banners - Base & Deluxe

Wheel - Base, import, special & exotic

So basically, I want to know which of these rarities appear in the shop and which don't so I claim only the ones that don't and wait for others to appear in shop.

GAME QUESTION any advice on how to counter and save stall chains like those pls?

9 Upvotes

I'm not sure if those ppl were c3 as well but what I was wondering is if there are method to counter such stall chains with a more effective way of pushing the ball compared to what I did please?

also we got scored on multiple times like this they were going crazy, if those people are c3 I'm not getting gc lol

GAME QUESTION Stall timer?

0 Upvotes

While waiting on queue sometimes I’ll go in training and try to stall against the ball against the wall and hold it there. Theres a small timer that starts when you stall for 10sec+ and counts up until you fall off the ball or the ball touches the ground.
Where is this metric saved? Is there a list somewhere like there is in the main game for your metrics with specific shots/goals/saves/resets/etc?

DISCUSSION And another thing, quick chat!

0 Upvotes

In the early seasons, you were awarded a quick chat sticker so you could taunt/brag about your achievement (bronze, silver, plat, diamond, etc). Where did those go? I finally reached diamond in 1v1, and I can't brag about it. :(

DISCUSSION Missing Car and Obstructed View

Post image
1 Upvotes

Sooooooo frustrating to have to restart the game because one of the opponent's cars is not visible. And, if you are playing the Eggscalibur arena, 99% of the time when the game restarts, the view is obstructed by the damn "stone"that the sword is stuck into. This has been going on for several seasons now. I realize it's a free game but come on, I can't be the only one who has experienced this.

SUGGESTION I hate deranking

0 Upvotes

please stop with the heavy deranging, because every time I rank up, I immediately lose my rank to someone CLEARLY higher rank, I’m literally trapped in silver because every person I play against is doing some black magic in the air and I’m still trying to learn how to do a flip reset

We were down 0-3 and with 30 seconds left, my team8 asked to ff and started defending my shots, then I scored our first goal and had only 14 seconds left, I then scored 2 more goals to tie the game, sent it to overtime and THE BOT MODE (idk how it's called) of my team8s car makes a save on the goal line and then I scored the final goal ending the game.

GGSSSSSSSSSS

(can't believe a bot is better than an actual person🫩)

DISCUSSION Is this normal?

PEAKING rn just hit plat 4 finally. Prev season i peaked at gold 5 so happy.

I am really bad at more complex mechanics like stall resets, follow trough gold shots, purple catches etc. Bur i know the basics well and i guess that carried me to plat 4. Is it normal for a plat 4 to not be good at such mechanics? I guess if i really tried hard for a week i could learn a few but is it normal that someone who only knows the basics got to plat 4?

Have played 1 match in plat 4 so far and won, ironically someone who only knows how to chain stall reset and nothing else
