Essential Skills to go from Champ to Grand Champ?

[BAd Mamajama`]

I've almost hit 1000hrs, and the highest I've been is Champ 2.

Wondering from you GCs out there, what's the skills you would suggest are essential to taking it to that next level.


For example, for me it was:

Silver ---> Gold: Practice

Gold ---> Platinum: Not missing hits is more important than making crazy plays, adjusting camera angles, learn to slow down & predict ball trajectory

Plat ---> Diamond: Double jumping for arials, warmup before every game, trusting teamates, rotate, learn to dribble, learn to arial in reverse, using wall to pass in front of net

Diamond ---> Champ: Air roll shots, unlearn double jumping for every shot (still working on that), when on a losing streak stop playing and take a break, find good teamates, pass without using the wall, boost starving awareness, realize when your chasing and fix it, don't dive at everything, learn to defend 1v1 (shadow defense), patience


Sooooo
Champ ---> Grand Champ:?

"In short, 1v1 is like eating vegetables because it is one of the most beneficial things you can do as a player, even though it might be less fun or leave a bad taste in your mouth."

^^^^This. I flipping hate it. But everytime I do it, I see the risk management results. Great links.

ok i have really good advice. now, i know you are stuck, but if you learn this mechanic, there is no way you will not hit gc. this mechanic is flying. surprisingly, how it works is in the name. i will attempt to explain how to do it, but keep in mind, although i am a great player (silver 2 div 3), i am actually still learning this mechanic. i can like half do it, which goes to show that even half doing it really gives a high rank. so basically, what you will do is jump. after this, move your move joystick up as you boost. now, this is something i struggled with at first: IT ONLY WORKS IF YOU HAVE BOOST. keep that in mind. you may not see why now, but when you see how flying works, you will understand. tell me if you need any clarification, and i wish you luck to getting gc with this mechanic

just so you know, although i am not ranked gc, i know a good amount about this skill range. i am no regular silver 2 div 3. i am actually great for my rank and consider myself grand champion level. i can help you improve if you need any training

By far your worst troll post, with a dead meme.

I actually heard Psyonics set a bind for that move. Press alt, then F4 really fast?

is there a bind for controller?

you can reach champ 3 just by challenging correctly and playing fast. from champ 3 to gc you actually need to improvise and play unpredictably to even have a shot at winning
