One tackling technique I love doing that gets my opponents almost every single time is tricking them with a “fake tackle”. Basically you challenge the opponent by either gaining speed on them in their field of vision or by approaching them at full speed, making them THINK you’re going to go for a tackle, but instead, you brake for a quick moment, forcing a dodge from the opponent that gives you the opportunity to actually tackle them. Works like a charm, and it really messes with their heads lol.
I love that my years of playing Rocket League translate well into this game. Roller Champions has so much potential, cant wait to see what hidden mechanics are discovered over the years
@@ASIOFY247 its mainly fundamentals and timing that carries over for me. Shadowing, baiting, faking, predicting, leading etc. I wish Roller Champions had a quick chat and a scoreboard, seems like the only role that is rewarded atm is Scorer
I always love the motto be around the ball as much as possible and make as many plays on offensive or defensive as possible... gameplay is similar to football and basketball schemes like fast breaks, give and gos, options etc just gotta play % and will likely win if you have decent skill
You're 100% correct about shadow defending and fake challenges. In my 6 years of RL that's been the most useful skill to transfer to this game. Favorite clip was using it to defend and save the shot ... that was clean! Only thing I (maybe?) missed was tiptoe tackling, which may be less useful in games run at higher speeds. I think I only use it when I'm steadying under the goal and someone's coming to take me out 😅
Yea at higher levels you can just tap the brakes to fake challenge and quickly change direction instead of holding the brakes, this works at lot better against people travelling at faster speeds, there's an example at 1:10 where i come down from the wall and quickly change direction
The ball can also be tossed to you will in mid animation for the drop kick so it’s good for getting across the straightaways then immediately passing to a positioned teammate
Just now about to get into this game. I joined rocket league a few years too late. I'm looking forward to grinding up the ranks in a new competitive game
Nice tips, I hope this will help me, cause I struggle so hard to hit the opponents with a tackle, it'S really frustrating. They don't even dodge and I miss most oft them
Sometimes when I get tackled the opponent steals the ball instantly but when I tackle it just knocks the ball out of their hands. How do you steal the ball?
You can dodge into the wall to get some height than pump down to the other wall, this should give you enough speed to do the normal jump technique shown in my 'Move Like A Pro' video
By jumping on the sides with the ball then pumping down people can’t tackle you without waiting for the right moment. You gain speed and avoid any tackles, perfect for a beginner. Until you have to play against an experienced player, then you get tackled even with the hardest methods.
I got the game Saturday, and could immediately tell I was only making tackles because I was up against noobs. Person with the ball just has far too many options in a 1v1 against a defender. They need to nerf dodging or buff tackling. I personally think the game should be designed so you have to avoid defenders by using your joystick with clever steering. Not just spamming dodge or jump dodge.
You didnt really explain much about the dive tackle (double tapping after doing an uppercut) It should be used as a last resort. Lets say the other team is at their 3rd gate but you missed the tackle and everyone else is out of position. Instantly go for the dive. One time the other team did 3 laps and he was in position to score but i came from above and barely got the hit
I didn't want people using it too much, it's rare but sometimes it does work at the end but I didn't want newer players relying on it instead of trying to improve other areas of defending
Don't worry they're slowly improving! Solo q isn't the best option at the lower ranks, I'd suggest joining the Discord and find players that actually pass!
Hey man I was the first guy to get ban from you’re server and I do not trust Luna she has lied to you about what I did so if we can have a talk that would be nice 👍
The gospel is simple. Jesus Christ, who is God in human form, died on the cross for the sins of every person. He was buried and rose again three days later. Eternal life is a free gift. it’s received, by faith (trust) in Christ alone. it’s not earned. Jesus said in John 6:47, Truly, truly, I say to you, he that believes (trusts) in me has everlasting life. Once saved, always saved. Salvation can never be lost! Trust Jesus alone and forever live.
Great video! Really really good tips!
Thanks a lot brother!

I mention that in the video, it's really useful and a must at the higher levels where people are good at dodging
I think I did this by accident a few times lol

Thanks for the tip!
Love ur vids, could u maybe make a video about goalkeeping or like easy trick shots to make it cool idk. But love ur vids ❤
Thanks for the suggestions!
Just started playing today, really enjoying although I am noticing some bugs, so I hope they can update the game regularly.
amazing video, really helped me, keep it up mate
Just now about to get into this game. I joined rocket league a few years too late. I'm looking forward to grinding up the ranks in a new competitive game
It's a really fun game and has huge potential!

Absolutely love the vid probably my mist anticipated vid!
Glad you liked it!
This video helped me soo much to climb the ranks!
Glad I could help!
Love these videos you are awesome
Glad you like them!
Nice tips, I hope this will help me, cause I struggle so hard to hit the opponents with a tackle, it'S really frustrating. They don't even dodge and I miss most oft them
That's probably cause you're aiming at the play instead of where they're going
nice tips will try out that shadow defending
It's a super useful technique!
Sometimes when I get tackled the opponent steals the ball instantly but when I tackle it just knocks the ball out of their hands. How do you steal the ball?
I think it just depends on how well the tackle connects, Ubisoft hasn't explained why it happens though
Do you know how to get speed with the ball btw good content keep it up

@@KingpinSensei thanks

Glad you liked it!
Thank u bro appreciate the vid 🙏
No problem!
I'm honestly just need the spin kick,get mad and then homing rocket
🤣🤣
You beautiful man, I love your tips and tricks, and you are really helping me win more games. Thank you so much!
Happy to hear that!

W man appreciate it
And I, appreciate the comment!
I love this game so much but I can’t find a match for the lift of me
When you face matchmaking issues, like a long search time, always restart the game

Can your next video be how to be goalkeeper?
I'll keep that in mind!
What's the discord?
It's in the description
Cannot wait to go home and play. Decent player looking for a team 🥺🥺
You'll find a team in the Discord!
help a lot
I'm glad to heat that!
King pin your vid’s help me out a lot it is very helpful keep up the great content
I appreciate the support!
Yes the mention of rocket league
Ball focus helps tackling btw, kind of like an aim assist.
Nice tip!
How the hell y’all get up so high on the walls
I have a video called 'Move Like A Pro' that explains it
@@KingpinSensei I saw it it was a great video
I’m actually pretty decent at this game but I swear to god the teammates I get have the IQ of a potato they never help me or do anything
