    I’m not gonna say this series helped me improve, but I’ve definitely started playing slower and more methodical when playing 2’s, almost to a fault. Definitely an interesting experience. I either crush opponents from their own mistakes, or trigger my own teammates for taking my time and never committing.

    • @adamali1165

      Yup. And then teammates try to play faster because you're playing slow and make it more difficult to play around them

      You receive a lot of “Take the shot!” because you don’t lunge into a cross as last man that you more than likely won’t score

      So I kinda had the same thing happen where I was just too slow all the time and everyone hated me lol. But what made this game way more fun than it’s ever been was taking that slow approach when I’m last man, and still being aggressive when I’m first. Of course focusing on being less committal and using 50’s to my advantage still help all the time.
      But tldr: at first I feel like I got worse with this play-style, but once I figured out how to balance it with my own, I got way better and had more fun.

      Glad someone else said it. Also I was still being too slow even when K thought I was bring patient. I was still losing 50s etc. Like someone else said, a bit better when you balance it with your own playstyle.

    I'm still at a loss as to how you pro/youtubers make champ lobbies look worse than the idiot diamond/plat lobbies I'm used to (no offense to anyone, I'm there too) but thanks for the fascinating videos. You causally mentioned just taking 50s a few times, I think I, and many players, panic too much and smash it instead of working on 50s. Always something to think about in your videos. Good stuff.

    • @moujik2253
      @moujik2253 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      On point, the single jump low 50s. We're so damn often tempted on the very last frame to flip into them begging fate to squeeze some extra advantage out of the 50 instead of just landing/wavedashing into the recover. We care too much about where the ball goes after those 50s, not feeling that with single or no jump we can catch up to the ball faster anyway, even if it feels like we lost the 50. However getting the right timing and position to not just get insta steam-rolled or even demoed is not easy

      True, even tho he’s trying his best to slow it down and work through his decision making, the fact remains that he was a pro. His reads are insane, and fast. When I try to emulate his bounce dribbles in game, I find myself getting challenged before I even reacted more often than not. It’s something I need to work on, but I will say that flakes’ defensive advice on how to fake challenges and cover net REALLY helped me and my duo bud get consistent on our rotations and lock down defence.

Cause it seems like you’re playing exactly the same as in ones, and it would be educational to know when you think your teammate is doing something right, cause you’re only mentioning stuff when the teammate is messing up.

Truth of the matter is that random teammates don't possess the ball well. They simply hit it away. You, in turn, see that and are confused why Flakes has the ball so much. Lesson here: leave your teammate space, and don't throw the ball away.

    sometimes its the right choice to speed up a ball aka "giving ball away" just for corner boost steals. You’ll find high lvl players quickly moving the ball forward even if they could slow down to get into a boost choke later on.
    E.g. Apparentlyjack who’s often top 10 in 2s will say that it’s sometimes better to take quick shots on net, just cause you can continue attacking afterwards.
    I notice flakes never really boost starves the opponents, and he doesn’t really pass to his mate either. He also sticks on the ball in what could be considered cutting rotation.
    I’m not sure playing 2s as a 1s game is the most "healthy" way, constantly critizising your mates for going for the ball. Why not show a replay from your mates perspective? It’s probably very hard to know what to do as the mate.
    Playing the flakes way means your mate will have no clue what to do or where to be, and it will get frustrating because flakes doesn’t get off the ball, doesn’t pass, and cuts rotations even when mate has the better angle.
    Finally mate is so used to rotation cuts, that they passively sit in net and let the oponents shoot at the open net, and flakes gives commentary "obviously that was my mates ball". But mate probably sits in net, thinking "oh, this time my mate didn’t cut. How could I have known"

    • @Exsulator2
      @Exsulator2 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@capilah6285 I agree there's risk with passing, but I also think ranking up in RL should include getting better at playing with mates. If you rank up playing solo you're gonna be hardstuck sooner or later because you lack ability to play off your mate.
      Boost steals I can agree can be risky, but only if you pick the wrong time to go for them. But you don't learn when is safe and when is not, if you like Flakes here never go for it.
      Flakes playstyle has a ceiling for its usefulness, and tbh it works mostly because it's, well, flakes.
      The biggest lesson for new players is probably just to not ballchase all the time, if people can just take that, and also become a safer more usefull 2nd man, then it's all good.

    Last time I played rl seriously I got gc mainly playing like this (defensively at least). Since I got back into rl, I have gotten a lot better mechanically, but I have been playing worse since I’m trying to use those mechanics and making mistakes. How do I know when to try an outplay with my mechanics vs playing methodically like this? Obviously, the best players can fully utilize their mechanics while being methodical. But how do you actually do that? I can play methodically like you do here, but how do I ever get to that next level? You’re proving I don’t need to, but I still want to improve mechanically as well. Should I just take a bottom up approach where I get the basics first, only using my mechanics when I can stick to the methodical principles?
    Any answers would be really helpful!

    Thanks! I learn a lot from your videos Flakes, I find your content really helpful and entertaining. I kinda was a “squishy fan”...but this last couple of days you are becoming one of my top favorites, I like your advices, your playstyle (considering too that if you want..you can do all the aerial stuff that you want), and your mindset.. I think in a way you bring “something new to the table” to always consider, so thank you!

    Im a mechanical player but playing like this has shown me its too much for my tm8s to understand, I constantly feel like I'm in a 3v1, I can never make a single mistake or else my tm8 crumbles, they all can't defend properly so it puts more pressure on me and occasionally I get a flakes fan on my team but they just wait for me to go in stupid positions and when I challenge to make them do something with the ball my tm8 can never defend... ever. This play style works against true idiots but once there's someone on the enemy team that understands what im doing my tm8 can never do the right shit. im not playing 2v2 for it to be a 3v1 I would like to rely on my tm8 for once instead of playing like I can't trust anyone. This playstyle did improve my 1s rank though so im not going to bitch about constantly but the more I play the more I just plant my face into my hands and hope there there will be some type of light in gc once I get lucky enough I guess

    I get that it’s ranked and there’s no way you can pick your opponent but I’ve watched a lot of these videos and the skill difference between the people your playing and the people I see on a regular basis are way different. I feel like I’m just playing sweats constantly and the people you’ve played in this series play like bots most of the time

      They want you to hit the ball to them. It’s what they wait for… I’m glad someone else plays like this cause all my friends think me constantly dribbling is wrong but they position so impatient when I’m trying to give them a super free ball.
