I'm C2 in both 2s and 3s and this guy has infinitely better mechanics than me. His game sense needs a lot of work though, if he improves on that he's easily got the mechanical ability to be GC
@eltfranc11s58 ya, his mechs are kind of good for his rank, but his game sense is soooo bad, if he just learns a few key game sense tips, he'll be c2 or above easily
im the opposite, mechanically i suck not at aerial or dribbling i just suck at air dribbles and fancy stuff but at rotating and positioning i think im rlly good
As someone who has hit gc and done the the unthinkable dirtbag act of playing on a different account, I can confirm that being better than people in 2s can be completely negated by a teammate that doesn't play properly.
I think it's harder to play with bad team mates against diamonds than it is to play against champ 2s or GC. I've beat GCS in private matches where I was the only diamond and I wasn't carried. Yet I find diamond solo cue 2s harder than playing against GC 2s because you can't anticipate the kind of things a bad team mate will do. That's why it's so hard.
This is a display of why you should learn the game and basics long long before you grind flashy mechanics. His mechanics say GC but his game sense says and understanding the game says Diamond all the way. I am sure any Dia will have trouble with him but a seasoned champ will outplay him just with simple basics like patience, choosing when and when not to go, positioning and straight on target powershots. This chap will learn sooner or later but until then this is not the kinda teammate I want in my team when playing like C2 and from my point of view his mechanics to not overrule his lack of game sense therefore he is Dia and also belongs there because there is more to the game than flashy mechanics and he needs to learn this lesson first before he can advance.
Yeah I've been high champ for many seasons just off of game sense and positioning. I can barely air dribble, double taps are kinda sketch and I 100% can't flip reset. Yet I'm positive I can thrash him and many others like him even in champ ranks because decision making and shot accuracy/power is superior. You can make it to GC off of just the basics and reading the game to a very high level.
I'm a Diamond, and yet I can't do any of the mechanical stuff he can (I can barely even air roll). My decision making and my game sense carries me, however, and it infuriates me when I get teammates that have no game sense at all, and yet insist on ballchasing just to try an air dribble on every chance they get.
@@galaxydude-gaming1549 Gamesense is more an overall term. A combinitation of the theoretical part within the game. Awareness of the pitch overall, knowing where your mates are where the opponent is, when to boom or when to slow down, when to go or when to leave the ball. when to position yourself for a pass or when to rather cover your mate. I would want to say that gamessense is something that grows over time and experience and is nothing you can teach with a tips and tricks video but if I had to say anything I would say watch your own replays and if possible with someone in a higher rank to point out where your sense failed. The best teacher is a mistake but you can ony learn from mistakes when you actually realise the mistake and know why it was a mistake.
we had an extended break, both of us actually, so a little halt has been put on the series but we have gotten back to training recently! next episode is going to be massive, just gotta stay patient :)
I’m barely c2 on a good day and have literally never hit a good reset and this guy’s damn near consistent. Sure he might not be the best ones player out there with his slightly ambitious aerials, but I wouldn’t mind having these mechy tm8s that let u play back a bit and watch the show
i've peaked c3 div 3 and this definitely has helped me feel slightly better over not having good mechanics yet, i've always relied on positioning, passing, game sense, etc. obviously as i get nearer to GC i'll start focusing on mechanics and i've started to properly practise them recently, but having the game sense and basic ball/car control mechs has really helped get me far.
I always knew arsenal was a diamond. I feel the thing thats stopping him from advancing is his defense. He may be quick off the mark but the decision making isnt up to par. Also, when he is given time to defend he is hesitating.
The kid is definitely good at the game and better than most but people don’t realize you can be as mechanical as you want but if you don’t have the game sense and good decision making you aren’t gonna go anywhere. Obviously that just comes with time and experience
@@alexmaldonado2804 with how the game is played now I really wouldn’t say that. The game play is insta challenge, get boost, cut rotations, demo for no reason and repeat. No one plays as a team anymore, it’s just solo plays and insta challenging. Not about game sense nor mechs anymore, it’s just who faster and brainless
game sense is more important than mechs, but also mech are useful, I am stuck at D3 dev 4 but I got a game sense but still need to work on it and now learning some mechs
I have been hard stuck Diamond for a while now and I have peaked at Champ 1. As a diamond 3, I can see the inconsistency in my opponent’s in the sense that one game I feel like I have GCs I’m playing and other games it feels like I’m playing Golds. This diamond is very good and his mechanics are on point. I wish him best of luck for getting into those higher ranks. Thanks for the great vid CBell!! ❤️👍🏼
That’s exactly how I feel! In GC or even high champ lobbies, everyone is more consistent with what they can do (they can mostly do the same stuff as well as the others,) but in diamond you never know how the other team is going to play. One game you get good diamonds who are flip resetting over your head, hitting every single aerial. Then the next game, you play some way worse diamonds that barely hit any of their aerials. But, you are expecting them to hit their aerials, so you go back and defend, but then they miss. It is impossible to get used to any style of play in diamond since every single game you are playing people with a completely different play style. This is why many diamonds have experienced beating a good diamond, then losing to a very bad one because their play style is so different. This is what’s most frustrating about diamond.
Aside from all the crap that he can do Mechanics wise (Wave dash, Flip Resets, Wall Dribbles, etc.), Game Sense, Positioning, Ball Reading, Rotation, No double committing, Knowing how to kick off, Being aware of your surroundings, No chasing, forgetting about the big pads for boost and learning how to do with pennies, Patience, and not losing moral are far way more important things than all he can show off in this video. His problem is that he saw these mechanics and completely did not care about the fundamentals and because he can do those while at diamond, he believes he is the best and not for anything else.
Further showing you can get to GC with no mechs just having great shooting, game sense, and game sense, but just having great mechs is not an instant ticket to GC or even Champ sometimes.
@@XBMxBamaMight as well not bothering playing the game. This guy isn't an anomaly. I've got 3,000 hours and am in Diamond this season champ 2 last season. ApparentlyJack and WondaMike and countless other pros have said all the lower ranks have no mechanics no exceptions, so you are disagreeing with them, and rightfully so.
Im a casual D2-D3 that regularly beats people like him if I’m on my A-game and my mechs are not on his level. I can get to the ball just as fast it just may not be as pretty.
@@XBMxBamayeah but his mechs are pretty b2d. Double tap is common mech in champion. He cant flip reset which ok isnt diamond mech but he called himself gc. I can do flip reset consistent in c2. Next his flicks ? He cant flick ball it means He cant dribble if he cant setup ball. His air drible decent because he only training it at freeplay like every other diamond. He cant speedflip isnt correct as u can see at kickofs. Yeah thats all i think
i think i could beat him in the mechs test but my game sense is pretty bad for a d3 sometimes champ.. cuz i usually spend my time in freeplay going for double and tripple resets.. if u have any gamesense tips i highly apreciate it
What's crazy is I have a very similar play style to him and just got into champ and hover around champ 2. I started focusing on gamesense and not going for every ball that was in the air just like you stated at the end of the video and my rank started shooting up. At times I feel like I'm flakes cuz I fake challenge a lot and Shadow but it works lol
yeah honestly so many players could benefit from just being more patient. not slow or passive, just patient. Especially if you're as mechanical as the diamond in the video and also in high/low champ. So many players make MASSIVE mistakes that can be easily punished with being smart sometimes
@@CBellRLI tried being more patient and ranked down. I get to peak rank by mixing up going early or being patient to be unpredictable. I've watched hundreds of hours if tutorials and sometimes you people say to be fast and sometimes say to be patient and all you do is tell people to do the opposite of what their playstyle already is which isn't useful. The guy who said it helped is gonna have to start speeding up again once he plateaus.
I agree. He has the mechanical skill of most GCs but the game sense and decision making is still down in the Diamond rank. Once he practices those two things a little, I have no doubt he will fly through Champ and into GC. Best of luck to him.
His mechs are probably better than most champs, if he improves his game sense and decision making he could reach GC. Also maybe revisite some basics like strong, accurate shots, defensive skills and 50:50s.
@@BluesyRL that's because there are tons of freestylers in 1s who don't care about their rank. I peaked at c3 in 1s when I was playing serious, but when I started to only play to improve my mechanics going for risky plays, messing up all the time, I went down all the way to d3 and there are so many people who could easily be in c3 if they wouldn't just try to flip reset double tap on you all the time.
I used to be champ 3 back a while ago but i dropped to d2 after some time off the game and i think i have the knowledge and defense to take care of this guy.
I feel this Diamond's pain. I've been hardstuck in C1-C2 for about a year and a half. My mechanics are decent, but i feel like my rotations and game sense are my best attributes. And, I'm improving across the board every month. I play against GC and SSL(occasionally) in casual all the time, and play just fine, but no matter how well i play in rank, i can't seem to get out of Champ. 😢
Think it's cause when in casual you have user rank tm8 they make less mistakes and seem so good but in rank you play with people whoa rnet even close to that level and sometimes they just are realy bad
@colinfennell6006 I prob have more faith in my teammates than I should. A lot of people spend too much time practicing offense. Their defense isn't that great. Or, a lot of times, they try and make the solo play instead of passing. It's not every time, but it happens often. I've Solo Q'd for 99% of the games I've played over 5 years. I play to my teammates styles since I know what I'm doing. It's frustrating is all...
@TheSaiyanRace yeah I keep up with Champs when I'm diamond w because either put alot of faith in tm8s and they sometimes whiff and we get scored on alot but alot of times my tm8 arnet that bad they make alot of mistakes unlike Champs but I guess it alr that's why I play casuals more
Ianns gameplay reminds me a lot of my own. Similar mechanical consistency although I’d say I’m maybe a little less consistent with my double taps than my other mechanics. Solid player I’d love to run into on the field
shout out to Ian. The guys goated for diamond. I have been hard stuck diamond and I feel me and Ian have similar play-styles. Without sounding cocky I feel like I would have a decent chance against him if I ever came up against him in ranked
I feel for this guy, I’ve been hard stuck plat for a while and know I have diamond mechs, I just have no clue what I’m doing wrong to rank up. Glad you helped someone like this cbell, w mans
Play EXTREMELY defensively and stay grounded unless your opponent puts a shot on net. Get consistent at fast aerials for saves, and saving the ball into your corner. Let your opponents make the mistakes (double commit/miss open nets), which happens a lot at plat, then capitalize on the counter attack.
Hi Cbell, ive been playing rocket league since early 2016. I do not play much ranked but i always hit a wall around D2/D3 ( even in sideswipe lol ) in 1s/2s when I do ( threes is the worst gamemode ever. ) I feel like I would be able to take Ian on in a 1v1, although his mechanics are clearly very good I think id be a good matchup for Ian. I would love to play some ones games against him and try and take him down!
@@ayezyee it is normal, in EU D3 in 3's is full of champs in 2's, skill level is not the same! I would suggest you just to cover the back until d2 (they do shit rotations), you can win most games just by punishing double commitments :)
And here's me at C1 for the past 6 months or so and I can't even air dribble, speed flip, pretty much nothing 😂 Honestly with a few tips this guy is going to shoot past Champion to G, he's actually incredible.
Kinda hard to tell since I didn’t see all The gameplay from him, but it looks like his defense could use a lot of work and rotation. He’s most definitely way better than I am as far as mechanics go. That’s why I love this game so much! Because there’s so many aspects that can improve your gameplay. I can’t do any mechs really but I focus on heavy team play and just grinding those basic mechs. Great video!!
I think he can work on his ground play too. His carries were pretty wobbly and his bounce dribbles could be better. Just do Dribbling Course 2 4Head and he'll upgrade quick. And I completely agree, he looked pretty uncomfortable shadow defending. Wonder if he ever tries 1v1s?
I will not claim that I am better than him but I am diamond and I can hit all those mechy shots too I also have hit a double flip reset and some team pinches in comp... I genuinely think I shouldn't still be in diamond I think it's just my game sense and decision making that is holding me back but once I get those up I think I could hold my own against GCs....... love your videos CBell
Hey @CBell, I think I can be the better diamond, however my mechanics are really horrible but my abilities to think and rotate are way better. I'm only d2 in 2v2s and I've been in plat for so long, but I probably can win but you never know it could go both sides.
I can't do any of those mechanic but I'm the same rank as well..... people confuse being skilled and mechanical with being good at the game, it's just not the same thing.
You know what? He's destined to go up in the ranks. When asked why he's in diamond he said "I don't know" rather than "trash team." That's 75% of the way imo
@@BluesyRLfor a diamond yeah and people usually tend to have a higher 2s and 3 rank than 1s rank so could definitely be C2 or higher in 2s or 3s game sense is his issue if he had better game sense he'd already be there his mechanics are great enough not everyone is zen
@@BluesyRL Nah, I mean the mechs are better than mine sure lol (that isn't saying much) just the amount of people I see with potential in my solo queue games that cannot rank up because they tilt their own teammates is insane. And at least from this video it doesn't seem like he the type so I'd like to think he wins the games he should if that makes sense?
I know that I am late to this video (3 weeks late) but I would love to go against him and I’m confident I can win. I feel like my decision making and mechanics are good enough to put a run for his money. CBell I challenge him to a 1v1!!!
Ive been hard stuck diamond in a long time, it would be such a blessing having him as a teammate. I can already see all the link up plays we could create together.
This is why you are in diamond. Just focus on defence and counter attacking. If you can consistently do that, your champ. Nvm the pass plays air dribble and what not. Just hit basic shots, stop going for corner boost, and save the ball
I'm a diamond rn and i think I could beat him, i sometimes break into champ but for the past few months I've been mostly diamond level, I also feel like my best clips are way better than his but I will not lie I am nowhere near as consistent as him
Yo @CbellRL I was wondering if you wanted to remake this with me as I can almost breezi consistently and I can flip reset and celeing shot consistently
Great tip for him and he has great mechanics but it seams to be that he could improve a lot in flicks, defense and passes, but for sure he is good enough for c1
*IM CHAMP NOW* Wow I never thought I would see someone so close to me in diamond, this guy seems to play a lot like me. Although one difference is that he is a bit more consistent in his mechanics than I am.
@@JAXX3L if this is sour, your life must be really hard outside having to interact with people and colleagues... Also, the guy modified his initial comment to sound less like someone craving for approval.
As a d3, I don’t know if I could beat this guy, but I certainly think he would be the best teammate for me. I got a solo queue teammate to champ because our chem was so good. Turns out I play 10x better with agro teammates who aren’t afraid to solo play.
@@cappaccino4324 Not exactly. This guy was hardstuck D3. I helped him hit champ 1 for the first time, and he really enjoyed being my teammate because I filled in all of his skill gaps
@@cappaccino4324 it’s all about playstyle. My play style is usually about trying to get or maintain possession so that my teammates can make plays on the ball. Since I give my teammates possession a lot, it’s much better to have a teammate who’s put most of their time into offense.
so I have a story, I do think I'm better than this diamond and I'm currently diamond 3 I just got back into rocket league after a break of three years and have been playing everyday for two weeks. I used to be champ when i did play but I'm really not at champ level right now and I think I would give your diamond buddy a run for his money. Love the vids, keep up the good work!
Just got champ2 a few days ago, he‘s pretty sure the one of the best dias in mechs, he‘s even better with arials than me, but to rank up n keep pushin his rank he needs more brain/game sense, strategies and usally a friend wirh an similar rank to grind with, wellplay Sisn ure tuff still
Im really late to this video but i think a big reason this player is still d3 is that sure you can do mechs in free play but once you start playing faster opponents and dont have time to think about how to preform movements or decisions in game its a lot harder
Im practising my mechs atm, but i strongly believe that my game sense is actually better than his, i reached c1 in hoops, and now trying to become consistent c1+ in 2v2, i had it this season in 2s already, but unfortunately lost it. Ill continue preparing, but if you rly want to sm1 with huge potential and sm1 who can learn unbelievably fast, here im. Try me
I used to be just like this guy I was very mechy, but I stopped playing for a month and my mechs were really bad. I decided i wanted out of this rank so i grinded for a month and got c3 with terrible mechs
he is one of those people that only focus on mechanics, i can tell he went strait to learning the high level stuff without learning the basics like movement and decision making, i feel like thats the only thing holding him back from being champ
I can beat the diamond player, I don't think in mechanics, but I could in game sense and with the challenges you put him up against. I got the champ season rewards, but I classify myself as diamond.
I'm the best high gold/low plat. I can air dribble, sometimes ceiling shot, dribble, half flip, sometimes wall dash, good defense and kind kind of speed flip
im stuck in champ 1 bc champs go for everything they just ball chase I played with a friend in gc and we won 5/6 games I have great mechs and great game sens but champs i swear how do i get out of champ???

I have been hard stuck Diamond for a while now and I have peaked at Champ 1. As a diamond 3, I can see the inconsistency in my opponent’s in the sense that one game I feel like I have GCs I’m playing and other games it feels like I’m playing Golds. This diamond is very good and his mechanics are on point. I wish him best of luck for getting into those higher ranks. Thanks for the great vid CBell!! ❤️👍🏼
You ain’t getting chose
That’s exactly how I feel! In GC or even high champ lobbies, everyone is more consistent with what they can do (they can mostly do the same stuff as well as the others,) but in diamond you never know how the other team is going to play. One game you get good diamonds who are flip resetting over your head, hitting every single aerial. Then the next game, you play some way worse diamonds that barely hit any of their aerials. But, you are expecting them to hit their aerials, so you go back and defend, but then they miss. It is impossible to get used to any style of play in diamond since every single game you are playing people with a completely different play style. This is why many diamonds have experienced beating a good diamond, then losing to a very bad one because their play style is so different. This is what’s most frustrating about diamond.
me too
Agree 100%
1:05 I thought you were gonna make him play hide and seek for a second 😂
Funniest comment 😂
I thought this too 😂
Aside from all the crap that he can do Mechanics wise (Wave dash, Flip Resets, Wall Dribbles, etc.), Game Sense, Positioning, Ball Reading, Rotation, No double committing, Knowing how to kick off, Being aware of your surroundings, No chasing, forgetting about the big pads for boost and learning how to do with pennies, Patience, and not losing moral are far way more important things than all he can show off in this video. His problem is that he saw these mechanics and completely did not care about the fundamentals and because he can do those while at diamond, he believes he is the best and not for anything else.
Further showing you can get to GC with no mechs just having great shooting, game sense, and game sense, but just having great mechs is not an instant ticket to GC or even Champ sometimes.
@@XBMxBamaMight as well not bothering playing the game. This guy isn't an anomaly. I've got 3,000 hours and am in Diamond this season champ 2 last season. ApparentlyJack and WondaMike and countless other pros have said all the lower ranks have no mechanics no exceptions, so you are disagreeing with them, and rightfully so.
But nobody teaches how to do that stuff without contradicting themselves.
Im a casual D2-D3 that regularly beats people like him if I’m on my A-game and my mechs are not on his level. I can get to the ball just as fast it just may not be as pretty.
@@XBMxBamayeah but his mechs are pretty b2d. Double tap is common mech in champion. He cant flip reset which ok isnt diamond mech but he called himself gc. I can do flip reset consistent in c2. Next his flicks ? He cant flick ball it means He cant dribble if he cant setup ball. His air drible decent because he only training it at freeplay like every other diamond. He cant speedflip isnt correct as u can see at kickofs. Yeah thats all i think
i think i could beat him in the mechs test but my game sense is pretty bad for a d3 sometimes champ.. cuz i usually spend my time in freeplay going for double and tripple resets.. if u have any gamesense tips i highly apreciate it
What's crazy is I have a very similar play style to him and just got into champ and hover around champ 2. I started focusing on gamesense and not going for every ball that was in the air just like you stated at the end of the video and my rank started shooting up.
At times I feel like I'm flakes cuz I fake challenge a lot and Shadow but it works lol
yeah honestly so many players could benefit from just being more patient. not slow or passive, just patient. Especially if you're as mechanical as the diamond in the video and also in high/low champ. So many players make MASSIVE mistakes that can be easily punished with being smart sometimes
Exactly what i did
@@CBellRLI tried being more patient and ranked down. I get to peak rank by mixing up going early or being patient to be unpredictable. I've watched hundreds of hours if tutorials and sometimes you people say to be fast and sometimes say to be patient and all you do is tell people to do the opposite of what their playstyle already is which isn't useful. The guy who said it helped is gonna have to start speeding up again once he plateaus.
I agree. He has the mechanical skill of most GCs but the game sense and decision making is still down in the Diamond rank. Once he practices those two things a little, I have no doubt he will fly through Champ and into GC. Best of luck to him.
His mechs are probably better than most champs, if he improves his game sense and decision making he could reach GC. Also maybe revisite some basics like strong, accurate shots, defensive skills and 50:50s.
His 50s were pretty awful ngl
His mechs are trash compared to some of the people i play in D1 1v1s like his game sense is even worse lmao
@@BluesyRL ur same 1s rank bro. He's diamond 1 div 2 rn
@@BluesyRL that's because there are tons of freestylers in 1s who don't care about their rank.
I peaked at c3 in 1s when I was playing serious, but when I started to only play to improve my mechanics going for risky plays, messing up all the time, I went down all the way to d3 and there are so many people who could easily be in c3 if they wouldn't just try to flip reset double tap on you all the time.
@@BluesyRLyo Wsp henry
When you got all the mech in the world but no game sense, you're in diamond for a reason
I used to be champ 3 back a while ago but i dropped to d2 after some time off the game and i think i have the knowledge and defense to take care of this guy.
Oh yeah also, I think im his opposite. I dont have mechs at all but I can do all the basics and know how to play.
@@regmitchyea you would definitely destroy him, imo the average d3 can beat him. He’s mechy but his game sense makes me wanna cry.
I feel this Diamond's pain. I've been hardstuck in C1-C2 for about a year and a half. My mechanics are decent, but i feel like my rotations and game sense are my best attributes. And, I'm improving across the board every month.
I play against GC and SSL(occasionally) in casual all the time, and play just fine, but no matter how well i play in rank, i can't seem to get out of Champ. 😢
Think it's cause when in casual you have user rank tm8 they make less mistakes and seem so good but in rank you play with people whoa rnet even close to that level and sometimes they just are realy bad
what i realized helped me was too have faith in your tm8s
@@colinfennell6006 ikr
@colinfennell6006 I prob have more faith in my teammates than I should. A lot of people spend too much time practicing offense. Their defense isn't that great. Or, a lot of times, they try and make the solo play instead of passing.
It's not every time, but it happens often. I've Solo Q'd for 99% of the games I've played over 5 years. I play to my teammates styles since I know what I'm doing. It's frustrating is all...
@TheSaiyanRace yeah I keep up with Champs when I'm diamond w because either put alot of faith in tm8s and they sometimes whiff and we get scored on alot but alot of times my tm8 arnet that bad they make alot of mistakes unlike Champs but I guess it alr that's why I play casuals more

Ianns gameplay reminds me a lot of my own. Similar mechanical consistency although I’d say I’m maybe a little less consistent with my double taps than my other mechanics. Solid player I’d love to run into on the field
its not him lopl
wdym its not him?@@someporter
shout out to Ian. The guys goated for diamond. I have been hard stuck diamond and I feel me and Ian have similar play-styles. Without sounding cocky I feel like I would have a decent chance against him if I ever came up against him in ranked

I feel for this guy, I’ve been hard stuck plat for a while and know I have diamond mechs, I just have no clue what I’m doing wrong to rank up. Glad you helped someone like this cbell, w mans
Play EXTREMELY defensively and stay grounded unless your opponent puts a shot on net. Get consistent at fast aerials for saves, and saving the ball into your corner.
Let your opponents make the mistakes (double commit/miss open nets), which happens a lot at plat, then capitalize on the counter attack.
lol diamond mechs ARE plat mechs.

Stop ballchasing and rotate
Hi Cbell, ive been playing rocket league since early 2016. I do not play much ranked but i always hit a wall around D2/D3 ( even in sideswipe lol ) in 1s/2s when I do ( threes is the worst gamemode ever. ) I feel like I would be able to take Ian on in a 1v1, although his mechanics are clearly very good I think id be a good matchup for Ian. I would love to play some ones games against him and try and take him down!
3s sucks lol my peak is c1 but im plat3 in 3s🤣🤣
@@ayezyee it is normal, in EU D3 in 3's is full of champs in 2's, skill level is not the same! I would suggest you just to cover the back until d2 (they do shit rotations), you can win most games just by punishing double commitments :)
im d3 and i have the same mechs. Its not hard to have them but its hard to have good decision-making.Nice video btw
same here never been champ and diamond for like 9 seasons straight
:(
@@Lion_VFX ye
How often does the gamers8 thing happen and how do you qualify?
And here's me at C1 for the past 6 months or so and I can't even air dribble, speed flip, pretty much nothing 😂
Honestly with a few tips this guy is going to shoot past Champion to G, he's actually incredible.
His game sense is awful, he needs a lot more then just a few tips, plus he's not good at defense
Ya its wild watching this because im hard stuck c2 and cant do half the things this guy can.

What rank are u now?
@@dopeknight4849 c2, peak was c3 div 2
Kinda hard to tell since I didn’t see all
The gameplay from him, but it looks like his defense could use a lot of work and rotation. He’s most definitely way better than I am as far as mechanics go. That’s why I love this game so much! Because there’s so many aspects that can improve your gameplay. I can’t do any mechs really but I focus on heavy team play and just grinding those basic mechs. Great video!!
I think he can work on his ground play too. His carries were pretty wobbly and his bounce dribbles could be better. Just do Dribbling Course 2 4Head and he'll upgrade quick.
And I completely agree, he looked pretty uncomfortable shadow defending. Wonder if he ever tries 1v1s?
I will not claim that I am better than him but I am diamond and I can hit all those mechy shots too I also have hit a double flip reset and some team pinches in comp... I genuinely think I shouldn't still be in diamond I think it's just my game sense and decision making that is holding me back but once I get those up I think I could hold my own against GCs....... love your videos CBell
Hey @CBell, I think I can be the better diamond, however my mechanics are really horrible but my abilities to think and rotate are way better. I'm only d2 in 2v2s and I've been in plat for so long, but I probably can win but you never know it could go both sides.
Having good mechanics are important, but having the abitlity to have game sense is also really important
Try me cbell... I'll destroy every single plat you put me infront of. Im p3, you know where im at
@cbell
Okay 🤣
Positioning, hesitation, bad challenges, awkward movement, I think he's got a ways to go
ofc he aint got everything perfect its a diamond, its not about being the best player but the best diamond
@@delanovanderwilt6813 I mean agreed but with the title/gameplay it just don't match

@@delanovanderwilt6813 theres no such thing as a "best in diamond"
@@delanovanderwilt6813 i agree but he still plays better then a diamond he most likely stuck bc of tm8s make even worst dissision

Insane how I am the same rank as him but I can only do a half flip from his list of mechanics
Mate im the same rank and i can't even do a half flip but i can reset, air dribble and other things
I can't do any of those mechanic but I'm the same rank as well..... people confuse being skilled and mechanical with being good at the game, it's just not the same thing.
This proves that if your mechanics are good but you are low rank that means your positioning, rotation etc are bad
@@duggy. my brother please learn how to half flip, it’s 1000x more useful and waaaay easier than resets lol

14:04 I would but just got in to champ
CBELLL make a vid on this man who commented and put him against the best diamond
You know what? He's destined to go up in the ranks. When asked why he's in diamond he said "I don't know" rather than "trash team." That's 75% of the way imo
Bro hes not good his mechs could carry him to maximum C1 in ones like yall acting like his mechs are so crazy or somethin
@@BluesyRLfor a diamond yeah and people usually tend to have a higher 2s and 3 rank than 1s rank so could definitely be C2 or higher in 2s or 3s game sense is his issue if he had better game sense he'd already be there his mechanics are great enough not everyone is zen
@@BluesyRL Nah, I mean the mechs are better than mine sure lol (that isn't saying much) just the amount of people I see with potential in my solo queue games that cannot rank up because they tilt their own teammates is insane. And at least from this video it doesn't seem like he the type so I'd like to think he wins the games he should if that makes sense?
I also say idk and I've been same MMR a year with 2000 hours played in one year
@@BluesyRL c1 is way better than the average player in 1s so yes objectively it is “good” not sure what distorted your perspective but gg no re

Ive been hard stuck diamond in a long time, it would be such a blessing having him as a teammate. I can already see all the link up plays we could create together.
This is why you are in diamond. Just focus on defence and counter attacking. If you can consistently do that, your champ. Nvm the pass plays air dribble and what not. Just hit basic shots, stop going for corner boost, and save the ball
you prolly don't have much game sense

thats not even him

Wow I never thought I would see someone so close to me in diamond, this guy seems to play a lot like me. Although one difference is that he is a bit more consistent in his mechanics than I am.

As a d3, I don’t know if I could beat this guy, but I certainly think he would be the best teammate for me. I got a solo queue teammate to champ because our chem was so good. Turns out I play 10x better with agro teammates who aren’t afraid to solo play.

@@cappaccino4324 it’s all about playstyle. My play style is usually about trying to get or maintain possession so that my teammates can make plays on the ball. Since I give my teammates possession a lot, it’s much better to have a teammate who’s put most of their time into offense.

Also cbell thanks for the opportunity, it means more than you can think and I’ve always loved your content 🫶🏽✨
Hey I'm on the same boat by the way if you tryna 1v1 some time answer this.
and yes I honestly think I could beat you
I am the best plat
I think u we’re supposed to put him in a 1’s match against other diamonds
Just got champ2 a few days ago, he‘s pretty sure the one of the best dias in mechs, he‘s even better with arials than me, but to rank up n keep pushin his rank he needs more brain/game sense, strategies and usally a friend wirh an similar rank to grind with, wellplay Sisn ure tuff still
Im curious to know what his 1s rank is
You should've given him the money still😂
I saw on the chart you put up that there are actually less diamond 3 players than champ 1 players, which is actually insane if it’s true.
Im really late to this video but i think a big reason this player is still d3 is that sure you can do mechs in free play but once you start playing faster opponents and dont have time to think about how to preform movements or decisions in game its a lot harder

it's probably not true lmao

Im practising my mechs atm, but i strongly believe that my game sense is actually better than his, i reached c1 in hoops, and now trying to become consistent c1+ in 2v2, i had it this season in 2s already, but unfortunately lost it. Ill continue preparing, but if you rly want to sm1 with huge potential and sm1 who can learn unbelievably fast, here im. Try me
I don’t have as good mechs but I have great in-game decision making and I think I could put preform most diamonds
I used to be just like this guy I was very mechy, but I stopped playing for a month and my mechs were really bad. I decided i wanted out of this rank so i grinded for a month and got c3 with terrible mechs
he is one of those people that only focus on mechanics, i can tell he went strait to learning the high level stuff without learning the basics like movement and decision making, i feel like thats the only thing holding him back from being champ
Bro got me looking like a champ
I think i have played shelovesiann in c3 or gc1 so he has improved
I can beat the diamond player, I don't think in mechanics, but I could in game sense and with the challenges you put him up against. I got the champ season rewards, but I classify myself as diamond.
