This rank is in trouble... | RTSSL 2024 #17 

and ssl became a thing when the game got a season reset

If I remember correctly, the OG titles are also written full out. Epic's titles are S..

Also I think season 5 vs s5 the sx were epic games ones

Thanks, didn’t know what gold meant. Always assumed they were more sweaty.

or in other words the red titles are free to play which is season 1 (2020) onwards till now and the yellow/gold titles are the legacy titles or in other words before free to play (2015-2020) i am a champion 2 my self and you see gc titles almost every game (1 or 2 ssl titles rarely too but they are mostly tournament ones or from extra modes)

Yep, always been scared to use the tag in game. Noone has ever said anything, but somehow Leth skewers me while laughing.

The guy probably has a job!

FR tho haha.. Been playing since 2016 and I peaked C3 Div4.. tbf my pc has been only running up to 100 fps for the last two years lol

@@jaredanderson4600that’s no excuse I play on Xbox one, and I’m gc

💯

Same. Made that decision after partying up with someone that seemed nice and started toxing me the second we lost a game after several straight wins.

I was thinking this... he's playing like he's got gold mechanics

Yep, I'm a diamond 1 now and his "champ level gameplay" is worse than me.

Well said leth has no idea what he’s talking about here, it’s the same with squishy recently with his ssl series. They hardly play against any of the ranks because they win basically every game and fly up the ranks before getting a chance to see how they play

I know man I can't get to GC again because of this. My game sense is pretty good and I have been GC in plenty of seasons but just keep struggling because my mechanics are and have been trash for years now 😂. My teammates do stupid shit but they also do things I could never do. Which frustrates me even more haha

@@Absolomx i feel you i used to be semi mechanical but im good now so you can do it

This is true to me as well

Like fr champ 2 is so damn hard to get out of

I can’t get out of diamond 3😢

@@vince_kelleyyo I’ll get you out, I just got myself and my buddy out of diamond 3 and now siting in champ 1 d1

Same

Got to champ2 in 4 months of playing the game and been there for over a year now😭

@@TheSicilianDream first it was d3 I was stuck for over a year finally broke out peaked around mid c3 stopped playing for a little came back been hard stuck c2 for close to 2 years

@@iisnxgyewyt5333 😭😭😭

@@TheSicilianDreamits okay im on year 3.5 now😂

@@ansaaba 💀😭

honestly if you watch replays carefully of your d2 games you'd notice a lot of misplays. Also dont forget that because you are at that level so you may not know when something is wrong - people like leth could probably find a fault in baso every single play below champ

@@freddie_connor9202 I'm not discounting my mistakes, I am questioning how my D2 lobbies are full of people with GC titles and and air dribble, double tapping, etc etc, while his champ lobbies feel pretty normal with many whiffs and nothing spectacular looking.

Either they're smurfs, or you're giving them way too much space to do that

He is top 0.01%

I belieeeeve!

This is so good

Rehashed so many memories with that😭

@@Bop_Sauce *in a sing-songy voice* AyyJayy, the jet plane, that's ME! :D

But remember there's people above you. They've improved.

Stop coping, grind and improve king.

@@bubbasernie5762 If he's stuck, grinding will only dig his wheels into the mud. He needs to watch games and learn tactics.

I was also thinking like this before but its not that the ranks are broken its just that you fell behind the general improvement of the ranks if you played more you would catch up with skill you just need to be ahead of the curve to rank up i played for 2 years in champ 2 thinking the game is broken it was just that everyone was improving besides me so i was getting better but everyone alse also was. And grinding is a big thing i probably couldve reached gc back then but i didnt bother bcs you sometimes get stuck in a loop where you lose 2 games and then win 2 games and repeat

Let’s reached out when Seth announced it. They are already in talks to make this happen, schedules lining up of course.

amen... Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.

You’re right, but hesitation is a killer especially as you continue to rank up. Game speed is important too, in 2’s as first man usually just going is best bc then you’ll force and your tm8 will get it.

@@bubbasernie5762 Sorry for the wall of text just want to make sure we're on the same page here (and clarify for anyone else who reads). I'm not talking about hesitation when you don't know what to do with the ball so you panic wiff or make a bad hit. I'm talking about intentionally slowing the play down with a slower controlled hit because a faster hit would result in a worse play overall. This is something you need to do at every rank in my opinion. Good example from today in a 3s game. Tm8-A and I were past mid and tm8-A's 50/50 resulted in the ball going to our side. Tm8-B was 3rd man and got to the ball (great on his part). However rather then controlling the ball and giving tm8-A and I the chance to get back into the play, he boomed it back to the other side of the field immediately. The problem with this is when the ball crosses mid field like that, both tm8-A and I switched from offence to defense and turned around meaning you now have 5 cars facing the direction of our goal. Tm8-B;s hit ended up bouncing off the ceiling and giving orange the ball and they scored. Even if tm8-B had passed to myself or Tm8-A because of our positioning the best either one of us could do it try to redirect it (which they had a goalie to save), we could try to catch the ball (which gives them a chance to dunk us) or we could pass back to to tm8-B which runs the risk of sending the ball even further back into our side with no 3rd to cover. If tm8-B had caught the ball, took his time and controlled it; even if he lost it in a 50/50 we would have been back and in a much better position instead he put us in a doable but much more difficult/risker play.

I almost died reading this good job

@@YinGaming373 thank you 😁

🤨

Im a solid d1 with 1600h so I figure you’re doing great

GC in 1200h solo queue? You must be some extraordinary talent

@@sixessful that’s bc he’s bsing😂 it’s easy to say anything in the comments, rltracker don’t lie tho

Yeah I get that. For some reason the champ gameplay on NA servers is not the same as on EU servers. On EU servers the gameplay seems faster and more mechanical than on NA servers. Obviosly there is some bias with my observations, because I play on EU servers, but I can't be the only one who noticed that.

@@patrickgartner435 is halt echt so

@@patrickgartner435that is copium. There is only a difference in top level, anything under ssl or basically pro is the exact same

The thing is it was my suggestion, and he said my name

@@Blackbelt2016 Suspicious editing from Danny 👀

Imo just watching the other players is the best thing to do. Pay attention when your tm8 needs backup(if he’s boosting/flipping away from the ball or circles behind you), pay attention when the opponents hit the ball too far away to maintain control. Nothing wrong with waiting as long as you keep yourself close enough to jump in when an opening occurs.

@@kpDiDDy ahh thank you man!

So ill be stuck again

lmao fr

It changed *as I was watching it*, didnt even know it would refresh on its own like that

what was it called before ?

@@_karma_6906 something my like “Champ 1”

​@@_karma_6906 Just "Champ 2."

@@_karma_6906just “Champ 2”

The only real difference is the feeling around the game, and I would argue a lot of that (at least for me) is just nostalgia, not really missing how the game was but how I felt back then, a lot of the time that’s why people have these “I miss the old XYZ”. It’s not that they miss what it was, they miss the time period
