I feel like regression is normal while improving. She's clearly trying to implement new mechanics in her gameplay but when the new options are unlocked she has to relearn when she can do them appropriately. That'll come with time so I think regression shows that she's thinking differently

Have her watch the first few videos of Flakes “Road to SSL without mechanics 2v2” it really helped me when I was there and even still helps me in GC1. It also helped some of my friends when I referenced it to them

She should definetly spend a week training her car control. Sometimes she gets very awkward and nervous.

I was acutally scared when it said Emmie quit this series because of bad teamates but it was just joke CBell don't give me a heart attack

On the regression - A big one for me when I was ranking up was imposter syndrome. Every time I got to a new rank, I felt like I didn't belong there and that others were a lot better and more experienced. I am only champ 2 for the last 6 months or so. But I have only just started to feel like champ 2 in my own mind recently and it is allowing me to push up toward c3. Before that, I would try to only play 2s when I was feeling very very confident (which meant I just didn't play much 2s) and I stuck to 1s so as to not mess up anyone else's game any other time. Also, when I started to try to control the ball more then just go fast I also experienced a regression. It is hard to control the ball, and sometimes when you aren't playing your best you just end up playing slow. I actually still often try to find a good balance between control and speed, because I can't control very well at top speed.

The first goal that happened in game 1 where her teammate pinched it to center, yes it was mainly her teammates fault but you should teach her back post especially for higher ranks. Also I think she needs to learn how to dribble. Keep up the great work cbell

The Hog Rider card is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a quick building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage. He appears just like his Clash of Clans counterpart; a man with brown eyebrows, a beard, a mohawk, and a golden body piercing in his left ear who is riding a hog. A Hog Rider card costs 4 Elixir to deploy.

This is THE BEST series out there! Shoutout to Emmie and CBell for the passion!

I’m just a plat between plat 1 and 2, but something I noticed something at 11:15. She might need to make sure her opponent is not going to beat her to the ball. Sometimes she commits without seeing her opponents, and she gets beat to the ball leaving the net wide open.

I'm in love with this series man, great job and great work to both of you. Really really awesome to see the improvement, I look forward to seeing more!

You know, ever since I started watching this series even back from the first ep,(ray) I can say it's crazy how much just a little time and patience with someone can change everything. I really enjoy seeing how these players adapt, and move up. It's inspired me to start playing more often (sadly solo since I have no friends, not looking for pitty or anything) but while following your coaching on the players, has allowed me to crush my bad habits (still a lot there I'm working on) and actually start to climb, I started at p3, now d2, and my goal is way easier but to hit champ. And if she can do it, so can I. Please keep going and please keep climbing, I love this series and I love the positive support. Keep up the great vids and I hope you find another person worthy of this feat, because it's worth seeing every step.

I love this series so much can’t miss an episode of it 😅❤

Now she’s in champ territory, crazy how far she’s come already and we are only 5 episodes in. Great coach CBell!

loving the series, i love the way you are making her get better at every mechanic needed to surpass her rank, probably the best series i have ever seen on rocket league!!!

Omg omg I forgot about this series for like two weeks and I finally remembered it and now I have actually good content to watch, thanks Cbell 😊

Now im in champ ive realised you just need to be consistent at certain simple things

this is the best series i ever watched i believe she can get grand champ in less than a year

i really love this serie, prop to Emmie, gg for the progress made. GL for the long road to come.

It's very satisfying seeing her actually make progress! Well done to the both of you!

I would say on the goal she conceded she tried to cut the ball aggressively in her corner in a panic rather than taking the back post rotation. Common diamond mistake on defense my team mate does a lot. At the same time falling in rank isn't exactly a step back if you are learning new playstyles and trying to implement them. I'd say it's more of an information overload and she's trying to think how to implement the newer aerial play as well as demos which regressed part of her older improvements temporarily. It's like if you have been practicing dribbling for months, gotten to where your catches and carries are consistent, then try to use different flicks or air dribbles you'll stumble on the basics you just worked on because you are trying to do more advanced stuff. Her positioning is good, but she's having to make a conscious effort for that still instead of it just being a natural state, meaning brain power is put into that still instead of it being instinctive which means she isn't fully thinking what to do next until it happens. Basically, once she gets more comfortable with her positioning and that comes more naturally to her she's going to probably hit diamond 3 with ease. Then when she gets that defense down to a natural thing rather than "omg ball near my goal AHHHH" and patiently picks her touches champ won't be far off. She's developing the essential game sense now, once she let's that breathe a bit and become second nature she'll never see Plat again in that mode lol. Good job emmie.

I think the Champ training should be put on the back burner for a while, she might be focusing on those things more than the basics. You were raving about her positioning and rotations but honestly she’s making simple rotation mistakes she’s constantly under the ball in awkward positions she’s going super slow and not rotating wide enough, she can have bad teammates but to get out of platinum and low-mid diamond you gotta anticipate your teammates mistakes.

OMEGALUL that first time you showed her jumping at it! i remember being in that exact position and doing the exact same fail when i was learning this kind of defense

Loving these videos, keep up!

She will takes more or less 18 years to get gran champ 😊

Biggest drop/regression was from low c3 to high d3. I still blame it on smurfs because every second game we went against a smurf.

I love this serie so much. I am plat too and she does a lot of mistakes that i do too so it helped me out a ton! Continue like that Cbell!

Love this series mate, your coaching is incredible

No offense but like how did she get to diamond like that

bro people who said she is incapable are probs the worst coaches lol

Love these episodes they help with my own game play so much!!

thx so much those traing packs were actually amazing. the second one learnt me how to airdribble

Cool video Wait im first?!?

bro she is not diamond 1 yet her game sense is shit, she has no off wall play except very basic flips, she's slow, she ballchases and her airial ability is still lacking for anything more the d1, the times she does make backwards saves and the shots you had her take near the end all look awkward and unintentional, the regressing makes sense, she was lucky to even be plat before you started coaching her

When I started rocket league I was gold 3 in 1v1s then when I started leaening mechanics like half flips, wavedashes and rhings like that, I dropped down to silver 3. Now im plat 2 in 1v1. Just recently I started learning mechanics like flip resets and air roll shots and dropped to diamond 1 division 1 now im diamond 2 division 4 and working my way up to champ! These videos help out alot 😊

Regression - Like two or three days ago I went from champ 1 div 2 to diamond 2 div 2 because I wasn't reading my teammates and the amount of double commits were insane. Tilted out of orbit and went tumbling. My friend, who had just had a similar tumble, randomly hopped on and we spent some time in free play and messing around, then went back into ranked 2s. Won every single game back to our original MMR's by a good margin. Headspace, playing WITH your teammates, and practicing between games what I'm struggling with were the lessons I learned this session. Hope it helps Em! Keep going! Your fast progress and great attitude makes me jealous!

emmie dont even deserve d1 + she got carried

I love this series so much keep it up man

As a fairly new diamond I think what helped me get out of plat for the first time was recoveries and movement. I could tell that even the difference between the diamond lobbies and the plat lobbies in terms of movement and awareness was huge. Being able to move around the field efficiently while saving enough boost for when needed is a very valuable skill for these ranks, and so is playing with teammates and knowing where they are on the field. What helped me the most for this was learning half flips and wave dashes, and possible off-wall wave dashes too (but i learnt those in diamond). For awareness making use of the right stick for camera was really helpful and allowed me to play around and with teammates, rather than against them. Also by the time we reach diamond 2, most people can sort of speed flip and while it's not essential, you win a lot of kickoffs and rotate a lot faster if you can do it.

Literally been waiting for this haha

Your teaching ability is incredible. Ive used your drills and can now do some low level mechanics like half flips 50% of the time

As someone who is from Plat as well, I can say that whenever I feel like I’m panicking in a situation, I always like to go “backpost”. This helps me since no matter where the opponent shoots, I can be ready to save whatever shot comes my way.

This series is amazing ❤

this is such a great series!

I dont post much to be honest but i have to say this series has help me no end .. i habe improved so much since watching the emmie Air dribble of the wall and then this. now im not ranking up so much but i feel the game play is and has improved so i thank you for that. regarding the section in the video you mention emmie dropped back to plat i can relate to this .. to transition from training to implementing into to actual gaem play is harder than i thought. but im definatly improving. so once again thanks for the video as i am proper hard stuck adn it has been driving me mental.. Thank so so much.

Great progress emmi thanks sharing the journey, its helped me learn to air dribble

I've been watching This series since the first episode and i just can't wait for her to Get GC so bad! I Wish Emmie The best of luck❤️❤️🎉🎉

like 6 months ago i hit gc1 but felt hella out classes by everyone and eventually went on a derank train to c2. I stopped playing but a couple months ago i picked it back up again and actually tried to get better for the first time since 2016 (eg training packs, watching replays, training in general etc) and i’m now gc2 for the last month or so and could see myself climbing higher

Love this series

A great way of training hitting the ball harder and more confident. Go into freeplay, hold boost the entire time and hit the ball as hard as you can, learn the bounce timing to boom the ball. After a while you can implent the powerslide. This helped me a lot!

one thing that helped me the most and i mean a ton is watching my games after i play win or lose and find all my mistakes and burn it into my head that hey if i dont stop these over commits or stop being out of position im not gonna rank up and im wasting my time, it needs to be in her head that her rank is on the line and she needs to find the problems and correct it fast before its old habbits all over again

I love for this series my dude it’s sooo good

absolutely love watching this as a hardstuck diamond player Im learning so much thats helping me improve

Last season, I was a div or 2 off of C3 then deranked all the way down to Diamond 3. About 2 weeks later, I got C3 and even GC for the first time. Sometimes things have to get worse to get better. You got this Emmie!

It's really nice to follow her journey, I can really see some progress! But, there are still some things she needs to be more comfortable with. 1. Recovery (from walls, bad landings etc) 2. Rotation (overstay without boost or any play) 3. Speed (Going too fast/slow with the ball) 4. Timing (Which can be paired with number 3) 5. Ballcontrol Thanks for a great video! Keep it up and best of luck Emmie 🤙🏽

I always regress after learning new skills and play styles. For example several seasons ago I hit C1 and then after some replay analysis and new play styles were introduced I went back to D3. Honestly it was good for me to practice down there. This has happened every rank progression Ive made since. My RL mentor always says when you play worse opponents you get to practice attacking, when better opponents you get to work on defense. I have several pretty rock solid ideas for coaching, revolving around game sense rotational issues, mechanics and most importantly mentality. I’m a mental health nurse practitioner student and understand quite a bit about how we (human beings) learn. When we perform best, and ideal ways to train. If your interested in getting in Touch I would be happy to send you my discord details. I would really like to see Emmie succeed. Hope you see this and reach out! Best of luck regardless!

Thanks cbell for these videos it helps me coach my new friend who is already nearly gold with 25 hours! Great vid!

I've dropped from plat 3 div 4 to plat 1 div 2 twice. Currently diamond 3 div 1, used to be diamond 3 div 3. It's kind of fun to see the progress Emmie makes alongside me since we were around the same rank when you started this series. Keep it going, you guys got this.

I'm currently on the same journey! Currently diamond 2 div 4, and these vids have helped a lot. thanks

Man I remember my beginnings in Rocket League, took me 20 hours to get diamond and then got stuck in there for a while. Hope you both enjoying the experience because in the end this is a game and games are meant to be fun.

YAY FINALLY ANOTHER EPISODE!!! great progress. I agree, +WithEnemy car control is big. Some aerial flying rings maps or lethamyr's parkour maps, ninja warrior, all these would be great

the same happened to me when you start to get better with the game but under pressure its different and when you are tying new things in game you make mistakes and of course you cant help the teammates you end up with

I've found the largest reason for regression after learning new things is that you're trying to go for all those new things you've learned without applying them properly, even if you can do them in free-play, it takes time to learn how they should be implemented into real gameplay, which is why new stuff will mess you up pretty bad and likely see you regress in rank until you get a hang of everything again and get a big boost in rank, beating your peak most likely what made me really notice this was after coming back from a big break (like a year) I played so simple and only did things I was confident about, I won a lot and felt like I never left, but then like the next day after doing freeplay and watching guide videos again I felt soooo bad and went on a big loss streak, I just couldn't hit anything I was going for

I’m currently GC2/GC3, but whenever I focus on improving, I often fall into the trap of expecting my tm8s to be doing the same. Especially when I was in the Diamond/champ ranks, I didn’t pay enough attention to what my tm8s were doing (and still sometimes forget to)…so basically I would improve personally and be more confident in the plays I make on the ball, but if you’re not aware of how your tm8s are playing then it’s all for nothing. In RLCS they’ve been talking about impact plays, and in the game your showed with Emmie, it seems to me like her plays weren’t contributing as much as they would with a more solid tm8. It comes down to adaptability, with I think is more of a GC skill. Amazing to see her improvement though! I’ve shown this to some of my Diamond friends who are tired of being stuck but refuse to listen when I say training packs and freeplay

Biggest drop was C3->D3 which was kinda rough lol. I'm a very non mechanically-flashy player so here are my thoughts just watching that end part: 1. Consistency - This comes with more practice but also from slightly better positioning. Mainly, on the near-post rotation goal she could use some of her momentum and boost to take a wider path. The ball in the corner is not really that dangerous so trying to cut it early at the risk of getting it hit over or making a bad clear isn't as worth it. One thing I kinda noticed is she has a tendency to mosey forward, I see this a lot with my buddies as well, but they'll just keep their finger on the gas to inch forward and slowly get themselves into a position where they'll need to do something more mechanically difficult which increases the risk of mistakes and missed opportunities. 2. Speed - You said you're gonna work on this next time but it looks like she uses the brake a lot and doesn't fully utilize her momentum and boost as much. This means balls where she can win turn into 5050s or worse, some of her hits end up pretty weak cause she can't use her car's momentum to get better speed on the ball etc. This also just helps with consistently beating the players around that level since they usually aren't as used to playing against faster players. 3. Positioning - I know you were praising her positioning as GC level - but the issue is that its GC positioning with diamond mechanics which makes it really difficult to fully utilize that positioning. I think she needs safer positioning to match her diamond mechanics and as her speed, consistency, car control etc improve, tweak the positioning to be more aggressive (for example positioning closer to the wall ball-side when her teammate is bringing the ball up the field). Not exactly its own point but vision and anticipation helps a lot here to predict where the ball will end up going rather than making a decision after seeing where the ball is going so she'll be ready sooner to make a play. IMO dropping rank isn't regressing its just a combination of trying to utilize new concepts and luck of the draw with teammates/opponents (on certain days). If she feels like she's playing better the rank will eventually follow which is the important thing. Dip down in rank while learning, to bounce up higher on mastery. Anyway great vid, can't wait to see Emmie in GC!

i absolutely feel her. I once hit champ one but proceeded to immediately go on a losing streak back to mid dia one. Now i am back in champ but this just happens sometimes.

This is a great series

Im so proud of her! She evolved so much since the 1st episode! We are rooting for you Em!

For all it helps, I was safe in C1 ( like 30 games between div 1 and div 3) and then dropped down to Dia 1. It happens when you pay attention to some things that you completely forget about others which sometimes are more important. But when you dropped a rank or a bit more you expect certain things from your team mates. But they suddenly behave differently and you have to adapt to that again. Regression always happens, there is natural variance in the game against which you cant do anything...

these videos are amazing

I remember the first time i hit D3, i stayed there for like a day and then fell down back to D1. The reason It happened was mainly just tilt queuing and even after having lost 3 games in a row, I would still queue. My recommendation is after you lose a game, take a break and run some casual

i think something i need to work on that you taught her in this video is learning to air roll with dedicated air roll right/left buttons. i have never used them and recently i tried binding air roll right to my left trigger to try to improve my half flips but i got rid of it after a few days because it was messing a lot of my mechanics up including half flips. i think maybe a different button would be better. definately something other than the same button i use to reverse because i feel like thats what's messing my half flips up. i drive backwards to start the half flip and if i dont time the release of the left trigger and then the re-pressing of it for the half flip, it just does a side flip or a back corner flip and completely messes up the orientation and alignment of my car

Crazy progress on those saves

Another amazing video!

Love these videos❤ Emmie keeps getting better! Even one day she's bout to be better than me!❤

I'm loving this series. Im invested in Emmie now. You can do it. Also plat 3 to diamond 1 div 4ish is really hard to get power through. So many grand plats and ball chasers. Once you get past that champ 1 is not so bad.

I mean she’s getting way better but Let’s not act like she’s skipped diamond in one video. She’s still a high plat low diamond player. Even with consistent improvement you can’t just climb out of diamond in a few weeks or even months unless you are a genuine prodigy. But titling this video touting her as champ level is just hilariously asinine and undermines the entire credibility of the series tbh.

I love these vids

I can't wiat until she reaches champ, I watch you play against her she seems like a fun person. This is a great series you are making CBell, I love it. I remember being stuck in plat for a while but started watching KZfaq tutorials and tips on Rocket League and it has really helped. This coaching you are giving her will really improve her gameplay and gamesense. Her rotations are great for a diamond. One thing is just her being awkward with her car control. Help her understand how the car is controlled, upside down, sideways, and just a full understand to understand the car movements, maybe a bit of air roll as well. Other than that, she is playing excellent and I love your coaching. I can use this advice myself, especially in the future time when she gets to champ, where I am.

Biggest thing that took me from D2-C1 was learning to dribble and pass. Even though it’s on the ground it really helped my air control as well. My biggest drop was D3-P2 in 3s. After 6 months I finally got back to D3. My reasoning at first was teammates, now I realize I was doing 2s rotations

I've been playing since late 2015 (probably also the older rocket league game but my memory cant go that far), and just reached C3 div 1 (2s) earlier this year, but it's nice to see a player progress despite how long they've been hard stuck in the lower ranks. Go Emmie Go!

So Ik they arnt as talked about but the diff obstacle course maps helped me a lot with Ariel car control while not being able to see lol, especially the long vertical tunnels when the cam keeps switching sides

1. Make your play. (Mechanics) 2. Recover. (Recoveries) 3. Rotate behind the play. (Rotations) 4. Wait for teammate to make their play. (Positioning) 5. Win the loose ball / Shoot if opponents are out of position. (Speed / Awareness) 6. Repeat. It's literally just 6 easy steps but this formula will take you from Gold to GC. There are times when you can break this formula if it has a high likelihood of turning into a goal, such as when you have a 2 on 1 on attack and one person breaks rotations to demo the last man, or when opponents are taking a shot and your teammate doesn't have the save so you need to break rotation to make the save, but those situations come down to experience and understanding what your opponents are trying to do and where every player on the field is.

One thing that really helped me in diamond level was back post rotations, I feel like that or car control should be next

I definitely think the ground shots pack would help a lot. Looking forward to some more great progress! And my biggest setback was from Diamond 2 to plat 2 in 3s. It’s pretty hard to get back up.

Holy shit, amazing work on the trainingpack! As someone stuck in diamond, I admire the work you put in, keep going strong

Also, this season I fell to c1 div 1 before making my peak push of high c3. What I like to do is for a couple games just play either super fast or super slow and give either my brain a rest or my mechanics until they are both up to speed

Love your videos

CBell. I have an Idea to help Emmie. I was (Plat 3) 1 season ago. 2 things Emmie should do: 1. Goalkeeper training (Diamond or Champ to be specific). This will help her defend balls that she would typically find in all of the games she faces. 2. When the opposing team has the ball, and they are running towards her net, have Emmie act as a goalkeeper (and have her sit in the goal). The worst thing in Plat/Low Diamond to do is be last person back while trying to defend against 2 people in 2's (Example: 10:50 in the video. She is not defending the goal, and instead, is in midfield as last person back, which almost allowed the other team to score). If you do this, then not only can she combine her Aerial skills she has learned, but she can also use her demo skills to make a counterattack for a score. At 11:20 in the video, you can see Emmie is on the attack trying to dribble when right next to net (which is not always the best idea), and the other team's 2 players were defending their goal, which ultimately gave them the advantage (Again, 2 v 1, not good). Another side note: You only really need ball cam when attacking or near midfield. If she is defending, then it is not very good to have ball cam on as this only focuses on the ball, when the other team could be crafting a awesome play (Example: 11:33 -11:38) Car suggestion for 2 v 2: Either Takumi (defending), Octane (Aerialing), or some type of Demo expert car. I hope for the best for Emmie, and I hope these suggestions will help her progress.

I reached Champ 1 around 3 months ago ( after 4000 hours of game play since 2016 ) , I bounced back to Diamond 2 div 2 and got stuck there for a hot minute. You asked for what she might need at 11:03, The thing that i noticed was the backboard rotation. or backpole rotation of the play. From that perspective she will have more view of the play of her teammate and the opponents. This way she will not over commit and can take a second to breath. I hope this will help her to get better :D

Love the progress and the series, wish i could push up and stay in like c2-c3 but my teammates are all ball chasing dogs with mental illnesses lmao

I am amazed on how much she has improved and the intense rate at which she is improving! She will be champ in no time and gc not too long after that!

I’m sure Emmie can reach champ relatively quickly, considering her learning speed and dedication. I was hardstuck d2 for the longest time and got to champ in a single day. Retained that for about a week and a bit but after dropped all the way down to d1 in three days. That was two weeks ago, now I’m back up in d3. It’s all about mentality and just not caring too much about your rank, work on actual improvement instead, Keep it going Cbell and Emmie I’m rootin for y’all to get there!!😊

Happens a lot especially after a big jump. Sometimes you get worse before you get better, specifically you know all the things you should be doing but aren't consistent enough at them *yet* and while you're practicing those things, the you aren't doing the same gameplay that got you to your rank to begin with. So you're getting better, but ranking down, until you're consistent at the new game style and pull back through to a new higher rank. I see it all the time, I just call it "getting worse before you get better" when trying new things

Shooting training is something she'll benefit from immediately. Recall the old drill musty taught with hitting the ball at the sidewall like you're playing squash with yourself. Shots you shouldn't miss, ground shots, and shooting consistency are old training packs that I still use as a gc but have used since diamond. In fact, as a gc, ground shooting is one of the most important fundamentals to have mastered. You also should tell her to develop a mindmap of where everyone on the field is, because in my gc games, if I know an opponent is behind me, I'll just zigzag sporadically to avoid demos even if they never come and it works wonders without really taking away potential for the next play. When that skill is developed, it becomes a background process.

I really like the editing 😊

Had this happen several times whilst trying to develop my gameplay/game sense. I’ve noticed the de-ranking tends to happen when on a “personal upward” trend. I remember this happened to me each time i went from Plat-Diamond, then D-to Champ. Still working for that GC though❤️ GL Emmy! I’ll see you there someday.

I’m currently champ1 have been on the brink of champ2 a few times. For me as I get better at certain aspects like backboard defense or quick aerials for example, I tend to get too confident and start ego challenging and notice that I start making bad decisions because I’m eager to make those plays now that I’m better mechanically. That’s kinda what I feel happened here. She seemed excited early because she knows she’s getting better and wanted to make the plays before the plays were there. Once you started live coaching and reminded her to take her shot and get out and stuff like that she started playing very solid. It easy to get a little sloppy when you’re trying the new things you’ve learned and have been working on, at least for me it is lol.

I can’t stop watching

This is soooo relatable
