The terrible mechanics, the deranking, the tiltqueuing, the constant fluctuating between thinking you're hot shit and thinking you suck, the deranking, and the quickchatting opponents. Finally a 1s TH-cam series I can relate to.
LMAO. Why is this so relatable😅
Bro thTS CRAAZY
I know this is driving you both crazy, but this series is incredible.
Thats a good one
Watching 2 pros struggle at my rank is extremely validating and hilarious
Bro validating is right, i've been hard stuck at this rank since dinosaurs roamed the earth and was gonna say the same thing. Everything they're going through is sooo relatable. The toxicity of other players (loved hearing retals say to turnn off chat, it's honestly the move), the fluctuation between hopelessness and motivation/determination, seeing opposing players randomly popping off for no reason (and doing the same myself occasionally)...this series has captured the whole spectrum of emotions that i experience playing rocket league and two of the best in the world are going through it. I can't help but laugh bc of how validating it is.
@@2CamBad i dont get how players get stuck bellow champ. After champ in 1s, you start getting some really good players, but before it, they just don't play 1s at all and generally suck. Some D3 players in 1s are ok, but that's like 1% of the D3's.
@@Salmacream haha not sure if this is a roast or a genuine attempt to understand how I'm hard stuck but I don't really disagree with anything you said. If you want, I could self-reflect on here as to why I struggle to get past this rank but that probably isn't what you're looking for lol. Probably doesn't help that I'm inconsistent with my hours so that's probably the biggest issue. It's kinda tough to fix too bc the game just isn't very enjoyable anymore. After they got rid of the occasional item drop after matches forever ago, and also changed the rocket pass from being random after tier 70, it doesn't feel like there's a reward for grinding the game anymore. And it gets worse with each update.
TLDR: probably just stuck bc I'm old and trash. And also bc my motivation to improve takes a hit with each bad game change/update.
@@2CamBad so you aren't stuck. You are lazy lol.
Yes I was looking for an actual answer. It just didn't make sense that you get stuck against players that aren't grinding. If you grind you get better, its just fact lol.
But I agree, I basically quit after I lost my rank up game to gc2. It's not as fun as it was, but for me that's because to get better is a massive commitment of time.
Try The Finals it's been super fun and competitive so far.
Why is this the most entertaining RL content that’s been on YT in years?! 😂
low-key facts
Agreed
100%
its mostly just cuz its retals and jack lmao . They are havin a good time even if its the worst rl experience.
At the same time “Oh he’s AFK, take advantage” 💀💀💀 10:40
Just like me fr
I think the game plan needs to be continue as is unless you come up against someone toxic. Then one of you pulls out a controller and demolishes them. It's all about learning life lessons lol
Pleeeease I need some toxic justice from pros, it’s the best
@@brandonswinson3033 Haven't had any since toxic takedown with Sunless
Definitely counts as smurfing.
@@ac.creations true but if it's strictly out of retaliation then it feels more justified lol. I know i'm petty for this but i think toxic people are bringing it upon themselves at that point.
@@2CamBad lmao exempt if it's still both of them controlling.
Y'all should do some workshop maps together. Free play is good as the only training for SSLs, but you guys actually need to re-practice mechanics that you've already learned. This is my favorite rocket league series though, keep working at it!
Yes! Do a rings map or dribble challenge map
nooo they dont need to be better, we lose all the fun 😅😅
10:40 They're finally becoming synced. Unfortunately not on the controls tho 😂
This is peak RL content right now, please keep it comimg!!
I wonder if they understand just how much we love them for this
I love how you guys get to experience the exact same thoughts that people who are actually in these ranks have. Like, feeling like everyone is a smurf and feeling like you deserve a better rank even when you kind of suck. Awesome series 😂 I'm loving it
W series!! Needed this laugh after a dirty week at work thanks gents
I love how jack said „Its game one they're gonna click off” when its the complete opposite, I think its more fun when they argue😂
Here after queen elizabeth died
Rip 😢
Speed flipping is not necessary as well. Leth made a point to never speed flip in his gameplay and he's SSL of course.
it makes 1s a hell of a lot easier though. you win every single kickoff up until champ 1-2 by just knowing how to speedflip well
@@wi1h Not true. It's more so where you flip into the ball and which direction you go. You can speed flip and still lose every kickoff to a terrible player just by hitting the wrong side of the ball or flipping incorrectly. But if you hit the right spot and flip correctly, you will often win even with a slow kickoff.
yea flakes in his no mechs series also never does and still made it to ssl
@@anon9931 okay, but if you speedflip well and hit the ball well, you'll literally never lose a kickoff to someone who isn't speedflipping
@@wi1hnobody in diamond and champ is consistently speed flipping well and hitting the ball well on a consistent basis so it's not really relevant.
Definitely one of my favorite series of RL videos. Keep going!
This is the only series of RL where diamonds and champs are giving advice to pros 😂
This is the best series of RL videos! Please don't let this one die, it is great! Yalls struggles aren't the exact same, but I relate so much to these it is crazy! Great Content.
it's so cathartic to see a couple of pros understand what it's like to be at this rank and to just constantly get flamed every second of every game whenever you aren't perfect (which is always because that's why you're at this rank)
Retals’ face at 15:51 is gold
hhahahah
This series has been so much fun!
one quickchat. "HEY CMON! WE'RE LEARNING THE GAME!" Good thing these guys don't have teammates to terrorize them relentlessly before quitting at 3-2.
Loved the in-sync "Take advantage." and "Can we...trash talk this guy back if we win?"
My chat settings for playing at this rank are: Team and Tactical-only QC, text chat open to all. That eliminates 90%+ of toxic crap and keeps my headspace clear for plays.
legitimately you guys are such a great duo, i would love to see y'all do something outside of rocket league. Idk if it'd get good views or not, but just some random ass style video where maybe you're like cooking or doin some random shit together
This is my favorite RL content I've seen in a long time this is the best
Definitely keep the series as keyboard. I agree with comments that it's so entertaining to see you guys struggle as we do. More hours in freeplay is the answer....
Seeing them experience my lobbies is hilarious
The simultaneous "Take advantage" KILLED ME LMFAOOOOOO
I found myself laughing and smiling several times throughout this video! GREAT content, keep it up!
Best RL content out there
Keep them coming I am invested and love these videos.
Loving this series!
this series is so good
This is amazing, it's a documentary of my two brain cells discussing my moves
This is my favorite new series. Keep it up yall!
We're watching a literal existential crisis unfold play-by-play. Quality entertainment, lol
It's not about winning it's how you're playing the game. I'm learning a lot by watching this. Keep it up guys ❤
This series is hilarious 😂
Guys play with Joy-cons !!! One plays left side the other plays right side
This is hilarious. I'm glad that jack and retals can experience pain like the rest of us do.
the most intense 1v0 of all time
Amazing stuff keep with it I look forward ot this all week
7:30 "I agree I think it is YOU" LMAOOO 🤣🤣🤣
I think you fall into the same trap as the rest of us start to get a little more mechanical and then try to do too much when you’re inconsistent. Let the opponent mess up and then counter. Been enjoying watching the struggle tho thanks gents .
Idea: get a coaching lesson to practice mechanics. My favorite content on TH-cam right now.
To be honest, I don’t care if you guys lose. It’s entertaining to watch you guys argue and try to figure things out and I’m genuinely curious how good you can be once you do eventually start to figure it out. It’s fun equally in both ways.
Also, I think the biggest issue you have with the current games is not being on the same page as to what you want to do. You are constantly missing goals or being out of position because you misunderstood what each other want.
This is the best series 100% best content right now hahahaha
didnt expect there to be a sequel for 2 girls 1 cup
Y’all should try doing the Flakes 1v1 strategy with no mechanics. With your game knowledge I’m sure you’d skyrocket ranks. It looks like you guys are trying things that are normally easy mechanically for you, but when telepathic communication is required for the perfect timing… it’s a toss up when it works and when it doesn’t. To unlock consistency, I think going far more basic is the only way to rank up. For real, try the Flakes method. Y’all would KILL it.
6:31 retals did boost
Gonna need a lethamyr house lan of 2P1C tourney. This is the best rl content in years.
I love this series!
The gameplay is subpar to what we are used from you guys but this is really fun to watch xD
I won't lie, this serious has seriously grown on me. Watching AppJack and Retals struggle against scrubs is the funniest shit ever. I love it so much. More people need to see this.
Also, it's probably confirmation bias but I'm D2 in 1v1 and I can swear to god that these opponents are so much worse than the people I'm facing. NA omegalul
EDIT: Except for CKULLE. That dude's GOT IT.
13:29 the way AppJack said “Oh oh yes retals” 😂💀
Love the series. I think you should do a head to head on kbm to decide who gets to do which role. Also I wouldn’t consider it cheating to re-bind the keys. I. E. Who says jump has to be on the mouse? You could try to give controls that often go together to each side, that way you give yourself a better shot.
When you realized that 3/4 of the diamond and plat players trash talked 🤣 Its crazy down here
I have wanted to turn off quick chat for a while but I don't want to ignore the nice quick chatters. Its a dilemma.
best series ever
This is top tier content omg
It's ALL about consistency at these ranks and you guys on 2 pros 1 keyboard just aren't consistent with it yet.
Just like how every other Diamond player isn't consistent at anything yet.
This is a real eye opener in terms of game sense and decision making and i really hope this series continues
Love this Duo
The true ranked 1s experience for under GC: destroy true low ranks one match, get slammed by the GCs that don’t play 1s often the next. It’s damn impossible to rank up without great mechanics and insane game sense
they finally see how we feel when we play ranked
U guys should try to incorporate air roll. Like air roll shots and things even directional air roll in aerials because sometimes you just miss the ball entirely.
As an ass rl player myself, I think you guys just need focus up on kickoffs-you know what to do you just mess it up usually. There’s nothing more demoralizing than losing every kickoff-I think that’s mostly responsible for the slump. Also, backboard defense against aerials is probably the way to go when u have no mechs, not sure why u don’t use it more often
Retals and Jack. Now amagine these trash talkers are on your team. That's what solo queing at low ranks are like.
Now you know how we feel
To keep it fresh, maybe Retals takes movement on his channel, Jack takes movement on his. Could help the boys get out of slumps quicker.

Incoming!
Incoming!
Incoming!
I'm laughing and dying on my sofa
Best series ever !!!!!!!!❤
Can you add a KBM overlay so we can watch the inputs?
Top-tier entertainment.
I dont even know if you guys read the new comments, but maybe instead of a ranked episode, could we see a 2 pro KBM dribble challenge? i think dribbling is a lot harder with 2 people then you think, and you can practice communication skills during it too. i think itll help a lot and id love to watch it too
great and fun video to watch thanks guys !!!
The fact that 2 humans sharing a controller are better than me😂
New rule! IF they send 3 toxic QCs, you can go controller on them for three goals afterwards:)))
It would go from 3-1 to 3-21 lol
@@MSN539 but like, no matter the score line, and JackxRetals could only score 3 goals with one of them being on controller. Then they'd had to go back to their 2v1 antics - but they'd be punishing toxicity while not winning entirely because of it
It's already Friday again!?!? Damn time flies
okay, yall need to get like 16 pros and pair up and do like a $16,000 tournament
I think your guys biggest problem (after kickoff) is car control in the air. Would be really great to see you both run through leths rings map.
Rings aren't as hard as actually taking off for a fast aerial from ground. WIth rings the booster can just feather and the controller can just air roll accordingly, The problem is fast aerialing in game is almost impossible because you cannot time turning of the nose up and letting go between double jumps , they basically have to be in synch within milliseconds to not backflip, so they are forced in single jumps except when they double jump to pop ball up from hood. This is why they cannot effectively shadow defence and have to early challenge, they have to single jump to save shots which is miserable.
So all in all i d say that's their second problem after kickoff :P
We believe u guys will make it to ssl cmon💪
(its gonna take them 5 years)
Maybe the strat is to reach Leth for some advice on playing weird controllers... and get comfier inputs for both of you, BUT! NGL, still best content we ever had. (Struggle is real and fun)
this series is great but you should also do one where you play 2s with each other on kbm and see how high you can get
Tilt your car and then sideflip whilst boosting for the kickoff
gotta hit the training packs gang 🤣
i once had a quick chat spammer as a t8 and i said "playing the game makes you rank up quick chat doesn't"💀😭
I love Retals
The one who on keyboard should make opportunities for the one for on mouse without telling him when to do something. The one on mouse decides what opportunity given to him he wants to take
I think the main issue isnt really one person committing to play and the other isnt, It’s more of both of you have different ideas of how to handle the play, and when its a split decision, its one hand not coordinating with the other. Keyboard player has to call EVERY play to confirm the decision
This is how we diamond players feel like every single day. Big brain with lots of ambition, no connection between right and left hand LOL
I think you had much better ground control with App on the boost/jump. Gotta switch back
Yo this is exactly how I feel in platinum
Seeing pros get tilted at my rank is hilarious!
check out krisp voice, my keyboard doesnt make noise on stream with that
this videos are way too funny hahaha
First episode: "ez GC or SSL" I was saying no fkin way
when you hit C1 I started to believe
Now im confident again you wont hit GC xD
D2 onwards are almost entirely GCs, so hf^^
I thought this was about the RLCS announcement
Plz keep going 😂😂😂
You are like my two brain hemispheres talking to each other but playing better. My peak was Diamond 2.
10:41 they’ve become one gg ez top 10
