Re: Rocket League

I've stayed inside their goal before right behind them, and they have no idea that I'm back there until I nudge them right out. GOOOOOOALL!!!

Re: Rocket League

Had a really awesome Doubles game earlier with randoms. My team won 5-1 I believe. Awesome back and forth game though. My teammate and I saved 8 goals between us and between both teams there were 21 shots on goal. After the game everyone showed good sportsmanship in the comments. Guy on the other team even sent a friend request and asked to team up.

Nice to see some good sportsmanship in the game for once.

It's cheap, but it's not really my big issue with it. When you're playing against better players, it just doesn't work that often. More often than not, I'll see you coming and just jump over you. Depending on the player's skill and the level of troll, I'll either jump again next time, or not jump, if I feel like they'll jump too to counter my jump.

I cannot even begin to tell you how many times someone went for the goalie demo, missed, and ended up useless in the back of the goal, while it would have been better if they just get in a better position to make a shot or a better pass my continuing to follow the ball around the corner.
Yeah...that's why I never have gotten above challenger 2.

More often than not, it can put the team in a bad position as I should be rotating back in case the defense gets the ball and pushes for the attack. But...what's the fun in that?

It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

Re: Rocket League

I'm stuck in challenger I purgatory. I have not moved more than a division or two since the week after the update came out. I haven't been playing doubles and that's usually the easiest, but not sure if the competition is just better or what. I was Challenger Elite and pushing Rising Star at one point last season when I was active, but it just seems so far away right now. The crazy thing is I feel like I have improved alot from playing with better competition at the beginning of the season, but the rankingsouls still feel unbalanced from one game to the next.

Same, currently prospect 3. Havent had a ton of time to play. Last season was Challenger 3.

I feel like I'm playing really well just don't feel insync with my teammates.

Rocket League

I think the issue is how they did the new season this time. In the previous season a lot of your starting rank was dependent on your previous season's rank. I've got back into blue again, but it was a challenge. Sometimes you get teammates that are working their way back up like you, but sometimes you get players that a really prospects. The pace is totally different and really makes it more difficult to match up.
