In my defence… you were wide open
True actually, he should of scored that one smh
In sunless's defense, your shot was ass lmao
edit: I missed the sarcasm sorry 💀
@@fowntain Come on, bro, they came in here to make a joke at their own expense, there's no need to go at them like that.
please tell me that you‘re below champ
@@JasonGagnon oops i missed the sarcasm mb 😅
Watching people with good mechanics and bad defense is like going to the gym, working out the upper body, but totally skipping leg day
somebody isn’t mechy
@@benjikamiSomebody has bad defense
Lmfao are we not allowed to be freestylers wtf
This might be the best analogy
That's why i always defend more than attacking, knowing my teammates might not save the ball when trying to defend.
i was just thinking about you today, i think i manifested this video. you’re all welcome 😤
Thank you Mertzy 🙏🙏🙏
9:11 That you?
So was I looser.
"What a save!"
"What a save!"
"What a save!"

Mertzy being narcissistic, again? No way, I'm totally shocked... /s
Rocket League in 2024 can just be summarised like this: broken servers, no trading, no updates and epic farming money.
Oh yeah, an invisible hacker and a ddos’er
This is Rocket League!
@@jiemileng7745 This is Rocket League!
I have to disagree. Adding US central servers has been huge for me and the ability to see your teammates boost level is great
Farming money would look different. At the moment Epic is struggling to even be profitable. If Epic was farming money, it wouldn't gift out new games every week on the Epic Games Launcher.
To me it looks more like Epic is letting Rocket League die slowly but steadily, which is a shame as well.
Uninstalls Rocket League
Spends months without Rocket League
Remembers about Rocket League
Wants to return to playing Rocket League
Reinstalls Rocket League
*Gets reminded why I uninstalled Rocket League*
FRRRR
i took a 3 year break from rocket league, its been hurting me ever since i stopped playing and i finally started playing again yesterday
The “good on offense but sucks on defense” thing might be the most accurate. Had a tm8 last night that could score at will but couldn’t get a stop on defense to save his life. 😂
Yeah just like the bears good offense but bears on defense
@@LoveProdzzzgood offense? They just replaced their qb
How does sunless always get the most delusional teammates
doesn't the matchmaking pair delusional with delusional? XD

sunless is washed and trash, he played the game for 7 years and is still hardstuck like how is that possible

Always loved these videos, most relatable rocket league content out there
How did no one see you bro
Why is the mister epic here LOL
i love ur mc videos so much. never knew u liked rl too lol
My rocket league experience consists of me never playjng for like 3 months but then i watch a sunless video and all of a sudden now i really want to play again. Love u sunless, never change
that thumbnail really has me feeling something
Real asf
This is my first notification from sunless in a very long time.
Love ur content cbell
Hi O’Brien I subbed to u
@@colin_rl thanks
Its amazing how little defensive skill is required to be above average in this game.
I learned to defend by having two chaser teammates that always passed in front of the goal. I am a defensive legend today because of that early lesson.
Seriously. I swear I’m a gold 1 but my highest rank was diamond 2. A good teammate and patience when defending is key. Now if only I can orient my car in the air like a civilized space egg I’ll be golden.
@@HboutfulLiterally me lol
Minus the good defending part, I just never solo queued. Stopped playing ranked because my casual games are more riveting than sitting in gold three trying my best to win but still losing because surprise, having someone who’s played in D1 lobbies is not the best partner for someone who’s only played the game for a year or two. Literally have diamond/champ tourney winners in my casuals.
@@djbabidadi2545same my duo is 80% offense and im 80% defense, saves from any angle but have the offense of a plat
@@Hboutfulgold 1 wtf
My favourite rocket league creator comes back after so long! And absolutely roasts me..
😭😭
Bad plays bud
That’s gotta hurt 😭
LMAO
You know you're flattered.
Very true bud, most of my opponents play like they're Grand Champs in Diamond. And many of the players are very toxic, which I really hate. I'm just starting to miss old Rocket League. Because of this, I'm stuck in Diamond, without any chances of going to Champ. I even retired from this game for 1 year, but thankfully I came back. Now I'm just playing for fun, without caring of my rank.
In other games same thing is happening. Like in Roblox, most of the people are toxic and theres a war between two avatars, but before 2020 this didn't happen.
No don't worry abouth them. If u ignore the toxic people and the "mechanical" players you'll get to champ in no time. I guess that you are diamond 3 if yes don't give up you're close !!
Thank you so much for this video. I started playing some matches a couple of days ago, after a year or so of absence and 4 years of experience "back then". Your observations are very accurate, and I'm kind of relieved that the way I see Rocket League isn't just mine, but it actually got so... worse-ish(?)
It's impossible to keep up. I talked about it in a recent stream how you have to play an unhealthy amount of RL or whatever competitive multiplayer game in order to maintain your rank.

I felt that BOZOSA in my soul
😂

Same to me😂
As a long-time friend of Tyrannical Peach, thank you for that coaching experience. It'll really help our games together!
Any time!
You know open nets are impossible for me to score. no coaching will fix that 😢

Yeah, I feel sorry for you cavemen who don't know adblock exists. 🤣
@@koganboss4874 ive had it and it makes my whole youtube become slow and laggy.
I legitimately think prejumped quick chats are a good way to communicate what you’d like your teammate to do, considering that “I got it” usually ends with the teammate stopping their chase and assuming you’ll take it, even if u intended for them to pass it
16:27 what a quad save
Last clip has gotta be the worst feeling rocket league can produce... When the opps leave just as you're cooking up your most diabolical roast :(
I’ve watched a lot of your videos, but this was BY FAR, the most realistic and funniest video you’ve posted, I re-watched it like 4 times crying with laughter. Congrats on your milestone (360 videos, this one made it a milestone to remember ) and I hope your break has put you in a better place. Looking forward to any future videos (if you will do any more?)
Yoo
Yo was up Luna!!

12:50 “now kiss” killed me 😂😂😂
Fr
you hit the nail on the head with that comment about how everything in the last 2 seasons just feels like EVERYONE is super good all the sudden. I'm a previous Diamond peak who only play casually, but a couple seasons ago I decided to really start trying to learn how to play better, through the hwlp of many RL youtubers and coaches. I feel 10x better than I ever was before, mechanically and teamwork....and yet.....I can't break Diamond this season. I'm hard stuck Plat 3 Div 4 and lose against highly mechanical champ-like players every single time its my rank up game.
Play at night. All the good people go to sleep.
also diamond is easily the worst rank for smurfs so gl when you get back into it
I feel the exact same thing 😂 it's really weird
man, i miss the good rocket league, great vid. really brings back some memories😭
At this point it feels like ranked is just whose ego gets shattered first
😂😂😂😂
whose
now you understand why i havent played this game in 3 years
we were all wondering
cuz of trash games
@@dex.9122 yeea
Skill issue is a bitch
no, i don't understand.
Nobody understood.
Nobody cared.
Nobody gave a flying fvck.
"That'll be $300" for the coaching skit is hilarious when you find out SpookLuke was doing it for $1,000
1000 wont do anymore😂 so hilarious what people charge, being a coach IRL I was straight up laughing to the guy when he said 6 weeks, 1 session 1300$
The "good at offense and bad at defense" thing is actually a direct consequence of skill based match making. If you see someone who is better at you at something, say offensive mechanics, but who is at the same rank as you, that means they must also suck at something to balance out their strength. Whenever I see someone who is clearly better mechanically than me, I generally assume that (a) their defense sucks (b) they ballchase and misrotate (c) their mentality sucks or some combination thereof. Otherwise they'd already be 200 MMR higher than me.
12:50 "now kiss" had me deaad 💀💀
I can't flip reset consistently for the life of me, but I can make it to Grand Champ every season by having a really solid defense. You make a good point that a lot of players tend to practice their shot-making and not their shot-defending, or learning how to abuse their hitboxes in 50-50s, etc etc. It really goes a long way... especially in 2s and 3s. Learn tight and proper rotations and defending shots and you'll be so annoying to the enemy team.
Yeah but for people like me. I play the game to be insane mechanically. The game isn’t fun to me otherwise
I agree with the guy who said about fun. Sure I could play like lethamyr ‘coaching’ where you basically hit a ball ones every 15 seconds and the other time you observe and position yourself. But then it’s really not fun, I’m not mechanically insane, I also don’t troll in aka going for clips every shot. But just playing more active/fast and if opportunity rises do something cool like flip reset or double tap, is just more fun even though truly pointless in ranks below like GC2.
I can hit c3 and get close to gc. The reason is im good at defense. My goal scoring is very standard, ground play is standard, but my defense is a solid brick wall. I trained defense back when I was d3 and it's always stuck with me. Once in a while, I'll have a super great night and just pop off on offense.
I'm an old man (for RL) and do ZERO advanced mechanics, but am usually C1/C2. I just make up for it with game sense, teamwork, speed, and solid rotations. It's how I operate in any competitive game. I'll never compete with the kids on reaction time or aim; have to defeat them with superior strategy instead.
@@jankoo285 Ok but if you don't trash your tm8 because "he is bad" (he's not badder/better than u actually) it's fine. But when someone do useless mecha then trash his/her mate it's just toxic af
I had a case where my teammate decided to throw the game because i went for a double demo at the start of the game. Apparently it wasn't "fun enough". It was hilarious
Thats absolutely mental wtf

Attention to details is crazy
Removing snowday was the final straw for me. This went from being my daily go to game for 7 years to turning it on every other week to play a few matches and immediately jumping off.
The constant sarcasm is too funny
I remember having this moment of clarity a couple of years ago and just said " I don't like who I am when I play this". Haven't touched it since and love that this video brings up all the same feelings. Great video and thanks for suffering through all of this so we don't have to. 😬
Well its fun if you play with friends and dont take this game seriously
I had this same moment with RL and world of warships. wrecked me mentally. so bad in fact my wife nearly divorced me.
Weird. I have hella fun with this game and play with fun people. Don't take it so seriously. I do a bunch of freeplay and training packs then play a lot of privates with buddies. It is way better than solo queuing rank.
@@jaythejuiceman3000 Soooooo you play with your buddies privates in rocket league?
@@raynibbs4679 Yes.
I love how at 16:26 bro really said:,, 🧑🦳-DEFENSE 🧔-DEFENSE 👨👨-DEFENSE 🧑-DEFENSE 😎Defense😎 " Had me dying💀
really upset me in the very next clip of him scoring when he didn’t say “aannddd OFFENSE”
Want his tennis wind up/sneeze sound effect to be part of more videos; was expecting a slightly spicy "Oooo-fence" as well...
The biggest change is that in 2024 absolutely nobody ever uses any chat until after the game.
Then once every 20 games people may use it to yell at each other.
This game is so toxic and I hate how teammates always blame you for their mistakes. I'm 1 year RL free today and it's sad to see the game is still the same.
I think the difficulty to maintain your rank is just cause less people play and thus the people that GENUINELY grind the game, be it smurfs or just casual-competitive players, all get bumped into more rounds for a feel.
I guess it always happens with online multiplayer games where the playerbase will thin out into only the most dedicated/the elite
bro just uses the platform to release his anger 😭😭
I feel like most of the player base is using the game to release their anger 😂
Removing trading was the worst update in gaming history
Edit: thanks for all the likes! This is one of my most liked comment ever!
I didn’t used trading so much but i think the same about this some people had actual value in their accounts and now they can’t do anything with it
It’s like the equivalent of steam removing it on CS:GO or TF2. Completely tanked a whole economy
dude chill its not that deep
Chapter 2 season 6 of Fortnite 💀
Maybe ever.
Mechanics level is so true. I played a few years ago and was high diamond. Been back on RL for a couple months now and currently struggling in Plat 2 especially in 1v1s.
I was champ 2 a year or so ago. I'm made of solid diamond now
Omg thank you so much I was so stressed out and couldn’t find a video to help me with this problem 🙏🙏🙏
"you demo chasing bozosa" killed me😂😂
Love the Love live school idol project reference at 15:00 haha :) We all have our secret guilty pleasures.
That’s what I’m sayin 👀
I saw that, was immediately like "BRO now I need you to explain what you were doing with that!" because LL is my FAVORITE series, lmao.
Now there’s another meaning for “I love rocket league”
Okay..."Bozosa" had me way too tickled. Lol
I love to play Rocket League, but sometimes other players make us hate the game by throwing or sending hate to us.
taking out trading was the BIGGEST mistake, trading itself was a whole different concept to RL. If you got bored of playing games you could actually do something different the game just gets repetitive atp
10:16 'oh i kinda like giving tips' 💀
Ok?
pause
Haha another banger sunless. I'm just a diehard tryhard in his 40s. Been playing since 2019. Reached champ 3 until a couple seasons back...and now for last couple seasons, struggle to hold champ 1. Every match is so sweaty. Im constantly getting double reset, musty, double tapped. Everyone, including myself, is more toxic then ever(i play with drinks and a good friend...so its fun lmao). Between my tryhard importance of improving at rocket league and chess....i have also visited the same dark places as you. Eventually i gotta give this game up. But even when i try to walk away...as you have...i always return eventually...as you have 😉 im trying to give up the idea of improving and just play to play. I think your video perfectly accomplishes this kind of mindset. You come back and can just laugh at the insanity that is rocket league. You had me chuckling outloud often. Great vid 👍
4:27 Seeing Marin in a Rocket League video is something I never in my life would have expected. But Im not unhappy :]
Whos marin lol

Yeah I was pretty happy when I saw lol
that made me smile hehe
wow, that was me scoring (and then getting bumped) at 5:15... I'm 4 months late but gg!
PS - I still remember how absurd it was that your teammate was so bad but so toxic lol
Yea man we need you back Sunless ❤️
For the first time since I started playing, I'm taking the season off. It feels so to be away from the toxicity. Even with chat turned off, I grew tired of people constantly quitting games.
Have not watched a RL video in probably a year maybe 2. So glad the first one was this fucking amazing Sunless video. This is an absolute professional cinematic with perfect internet humor. What a video.
I started playing with some plats when I first joined, they were very patient with me and I learned not to ride on anyone's butt as they handled the ball bc I knew I'd mess them up. During all this, I became an awesome defender and shitty offender. I've gotten better, but I still prefer defense. It's just so satisfying stopping a shot.
The irony of highlighting how the player base always blames their teammates... in a public video of blaming teammates with over 2 million subscribers lol.
Still love sunless
the funny part about the “mechanical” players are the types of people who ONLY go for clips, they don’t care if it’s a 50/50 if it’s a clip it’s a clip. Like damn I actually wanna see some ground dribbling skill rather then seeing the same old “aerial musty flick triple reset double tap corner kuxir” or whatever.
I need more bozosa in my life
8:20 it's okay bro he's got a lambo
Fun fact: Watching Jaws backwards is a heartwarming story about a shark that gives arms & legs to disabled people
I fully understand coming back and everyone being amazing all of the sudden
I stopped playing for like 2 years in like year 5 or so, and I was champ 2, came back and I was a solid plat, even when I was back to how I normally was, the community was NOT SUPPOSED TO GET GOOD WITHOUT ME
This is true.
Im gold 3 because my teammates keep scoring own goals every game i play so i cant get to plat.
I also find myself against 3 time Diamond tournament winners in 1v1...
I really be out here getting roasted as a sunless teammate in his videos
no coming back from this one fr
What one where u
9:31 "this is how i moan in my hirls ear" ahh wavedash
A minor change I wish they'd make is to up the resolution of the name plates and little boost next to them, it's so pixelated.
Haven't watched you in a while, glad i know at least one good move. Your infamous "missing a shot" trick, it's a great trick to learn, super easy to master as well!
Starting the video talking about how mechanics have gotten better, immediately followed by absolutely nothing but teammates eating chalk. This truly is... Rocket League!
Sunlesskhan retured LETS GOOO!!!!!1!1!1!!
Thought Process;
‘Oh sunless posted’
*continues scrolling recommended*
*double takes*
‘SUNLESS POSTED’
*video cant load fast enough*
D3 you gotta be ready for regular flip resets
I've been sober from RL for 1 year so far...glad to see nothing has changed
Thanks for this sunless! entertaining as always lol
6:49 this has always been a thing in the game, but I feel like it's sort of a feedback loop where the problem will become more severe with time, so a player taking a break and coming back will come back to the problem being way more noticeable than the last time they played.
1:14 bro💀💀
At least the hackers bring something new to the game...
Toxicity ? Oh... wait... It was already here
So glad other people noticed this, lol I’m a washed gc and the lack of actual passing plays is stupid. Even in casual everyone is just tryna go for clips than get mad when you’re sitting mid waiting for a pass than they miss the shot💀
idea for next rlbs or something lmao. the commentary and production team believe the game ended so they cut back to the desk and start talking about the series as if it’s over. they then get word the ball actually never hit the ground and was still up. v e r y intense. also just picture twitch chat screaming at the analysts that the ball is still up and it’s just looked at as a troll by the desk like yea ok guys, the balls still up yea right, get real. i fucking love you sunless.
ball chasing joke at 10:50 was underrated
I absolutely would have finished that game against Judey by saying "lmfao ur ass"
Were glad you're back Sunless, you are just as funny and entertaining as we remember you.
Just came back this weekend after over 6 months. I had just as much stress and frustration as I used to but I just loved every minute. For all the broken features and weird decisions, I really love this game
been missing these....great timing. Tons of laughs and smiles. Thank you!!!
I was noticing the same thing when i fired the game up for the first time in a few seasons. Defense and basic fundamentals were completely gone in favor of everyone just mostly failing flip resets and musty's. I miss the days before everyone just dickharded the mechanics they see pro's reliably do in lieu of actual good play.
3:36 Why did this get me so badly?! LMAO
I got lots of good laughs from this. And you're so true about everyone having mechanics but can't defend. Also I love it when you narrate the chat, especially the people being toxic. It actually makes you laugh, although I know at the time it's irritating.
The amount of sarcastic anger constantly emanating from this video is hilarious
The buttery smooth and then the car starts shivering
So glad the shift in skill is being acknowledged.
Solo players since Xbox release in 2016. I have never seen such a massive shift in the ability of opponents and teammates. Maybe a benefit, maybe to my detriment, but it certainly makes the game hard to “move up” if you’re playing casually.
It's always healthy to drop a few WHAT A SAVES start of game when you score in the first 5 seconds.
Bro I tried playing rocket league for the first time in years offer I played on the initial release. I’m a pred in Apex which is the highest rank and I’m no noob on controller and I practiced for hours on rocket league but I feel the game has gotten so sweaty that a casual player can’t have any fun. As a literal level 1 player I’m playing against people juggling the ball through the air. Most games I’m just driving around watching the ball fly in every direction and no getting to touch it once. It’s just boring and to actually have any fun I have to grind hours and hours of practice in free play to even begin to have fun. This game is going to die if as a new player you just don’t have fun because you can’t compete with anyone even in pubs.
Also hits in the soul how EVERY GAME IS AN ABSOLUTE BATTLE FOR YOUR LIFE I LOVE THIS GAME OMG
I haven't played in like 4 years so wanted to see what had changed, interesting to see it's exactly the same only with no trading and now includes hackers.
This is the funniest video you have had in a while dude. They're all good, but this one was next level 😂. Great work
Your tutorial actually helped me with the positioning
The worst part of all of these changes, I can’t hit a ‘need boost’ after I screw up anymore
Loved this vid sinless exactly what I needed
"oh you shoot right at your tm8's face"
