tru i would prolly be quite annoyed too if tm8 didnt go for kickoff that is just his yk. i usually cheat rather than go for boost so maybe not as bad for me but still
I feel like a lot of people in threes don't realise you often have a teammate nearby covering balls that spill out. So when you are a little awkward, you can just leave the play and rotate to third man. One of your teammates will likely be ready to step up and get stuck in. In twos this is much riskier and it is often beneficial to harass the opponent a bit so your teammate can complete his rotation.
Nah I feel for the team mate in the last one. He probably just wanted the win, and didn't really want to have to 1v1 if he could help it. Maybe he was having a rough session and it just looked like Leth was trolling. Honestly having a team mate leave happens to everyone on a regular enough basis. So you just try and take the dubs when that happens to the other team. Might not be sportsmanlike but it all evens out in the end. Maybe he was unable to type (console) or didn't have the Nooooo quick chat to hand to communicate that he didn't want the 1v1.
yep, exactly. they play ranked to rank up at that level, and a teammate throwing the game like that is turning a free win into a frustrating 3 minutes of 1v1
But he could’ve used “take the shot” or “go for it” or “all yours” or something like that to signal it? Not just the Nooo or to actually type. I’m Diamond 3 but in EU and when that happens I do what Leth does, we 1v1 the opponents but we take turns (me and my teammate). Once I got a smurf champ 2 in my lobby that beat us at 1v1 but we accepted it, although he forfeited at the end and we won, even tho it was like 9-5 for him.
Yeah same. like i feel bad for the guy that lost his teammate, but everyone who plays team modes had to deal with that at some point. I'd rather just finish that game quickly. I'm fine with Leth doing this series, but slightly annoying when he joins the enemy team or stuff like that. The reply above me tho is a nice idea, taking turns 1v1'ing and stuff. Edit, i said that before that game. I see he did say 1v1, but the teammate didn't exactly agree, so idk
Honestly if a player leaves still play just don't go full bore! It's mildly infuriating when you just let others score on your teammate( this is coming from a GC )
I think just keep queueing as you are… when you get to higher ranks, eventually you’ll start getting more 3s queues naturally because of player density on higher ranks… Also, this could be good so that half of the games are higher ranked and the other ones are lower. Ps : Love the vids Leth.
Hey Leth, quick tip. If we in the lower ranks would want to play 1v1, we'd queue 1v1. I'd also forfeit if my tm8 just starts spectating, no matter if it's a 2v1 or not. I do not wanna play 1s, that's why I queue 2s. From his pov you just started throwing for no apparent reason. The other guy was abandoned and yeah that's not fair, but that doesn't mean I want to play 1v1, that's not fair to me, when I queued 2s.
i think the issue with that last game is that in the lower ranked lobbies, they play ranked to improve and to rank up. So throwing a 2v1 is throwing away a free division rank up. if they wanted to play casually or just to have fun, they would play casual lobbies. That's why he tried to ff.
"Is this what 1s is like at the lower ranks" yes and no, in actual 1s players are generally more careful, but when a 2v2 ends up in a 1v1 it usually devolves into chaos
Watching this has me completely convinced I'm being smurfed on relentlessly in D3 2s. If I played guys like this all the time I'd be in Champ ages ago. I'm having to constantly defend against flip resets and backboard reads almost every game. The fact I can't flip reset in D3 has made me feel behind the curve now, it's ridiculous.
Yeah, I feel the same. Every game I have players who airdribble and double touch backboard against me. 😅 I prolly need to be more patient tho, I throw a lot of winnable games.
Idk how you can make something visibly Jamaican as its a nationality and not an ethnicity. Do you live in na mayhaps? I noticed alot of North Americans like myself tend to have a mix up between nationality and ethnicity "Im 20% irish for example"
Hey Leth! It's pretty BM in the lower ranks to not just win 2v1s and move on. I and many others in plat/diamond ranks get pretty heated when some nerd tries to turn an early match leave into a 1v1 or something stupid like that Edit: if I was soundlessCJ, I would've just left the match tbh
These are always great to watch and learn from. I've already improved my overall game from some basic tips. Can you talk about when you switch between ball cam? I see you do it while you hitting the ball at times but not sure why. Thanks.
Who would ever “own goal” in a diamond lobbied just because one of your opponents tm8 left the game? Leth, I think you’ve been stuck in high SSL for too long because diamond is not what u make it seem like at all. The purpose of this series is to help others understand when to take advantage of what situation, it’s not a “let’s have a fair game of RL series”. I’ve been stuck in d3/c1 for a long long time and this is not the way I get treated for my tm8 leaving or being toxic. This is all PERSONAL experience so don’t take it as anything else.
It really made me laugh when he said that after hitting a musty celling reset on target, even though it wasnt a perfect one it was already CLEAR hes not in diamond 2 lol
the difference between Leth and real Smurf is, that Leth tries people to improve their game and learn stuff while Smurfs getting clapped in higher ranks and they just wanna boost their little egos. A real Smurf in this Lobby would go for Air Dribbles and Flip Resets and stuff like that...and ofc they trashtalk all the time about how easy the game is
@@rash500m yeah but what about the context hm? He did it because he was trashtalked by his teammate. If you follow Leth long enough you know that this series is not about capping on people
@@Flaiz90 I know? You're taking this too seriously. I said that because its funny he said it AFTER clearly showing he's smurfing. Which he is, and thats fine in the context of the series, I never said otherwise. I simply shared the fact I laughed. Lol
offering the 1 in the 2v1 a 1v1 is not what happens in ranked games, to keep it authentic you need to make the other guy want to leave as soon as possible
He is showing you how to improve as a plqyer in 2v2 and3v3 not 2v1. Caaue thats not the majority of your ganes. If it truly is which ut isnt tho stop solo q
show some good sport for the enemy team. they also want to have fun. i just sit in net and wait for something to happen. sometimes, i practice chain wave dashes while the match is playing so that's that
I don't know about everyone else but I could watch a whole 20 minute video of you making custom thumbnails, little bit of AI little bit of photoshop. 😂
Earlier in the same episode Leth said that you can't use a 1v1 to determine who is better in 2v2's and then later in the episode when someone quits he's just like, oh, guess it's time for 1v1 in 2's. I solo queue a lot and have been abandoned by my fair share of tm8's so I know that at least around the ranks that Leth is currently playing, you don't see people not taking advantage of a 2v1. Like you might not see both enemies play as hard as they normally would, but at least you'd see the person who should go for kickoff go for it and then one person will sit in net making sure to block everything. It won't be one person playing and the other watching. I hope Leth sees this so he can start playing at least somewhat normally in situations where a player abandons instead of just practically abandoning himself because I put myself in the shoes of his tm8 and I'd be so annoyed that it might actually ruin RL for that night for me.
Yeah but, they other never signed on for a 1v2 my night would be saved if someone finally gave the courtesy I give when one of my opponents quits early. This is the first time I've ever seen someone get so upset by this actually and even get ggs sometimes so...
@@CaitofFate would be nice if I ever received that courtesy but every time I've ever had a tm8 leave, I don't get the courtesy of a fair game. I'd appreciate it if my tm8 didn't give our current opposition a courtesy I myself never receive. It might be different at higher ranks, I am diamond 1 or plat 3 depending on the day so I can't say anything for ranks higher than that, but leth is playing in diamond currently so I find my opinion valid for his situation.
@@IncarnationOfShadow I think it phases out at the 'higher' ranks, ever since I've gotten into plat I haven't seen it as much, try to bring the courtesy to plat/diamond maybe? Sometimes I ask my teammate to swap out if they suck at 1s.
everytime I watch one of these videos it makes me really want to play rocket league cuz leth makes it look so simple then I remember i’m hardstuck diamond and throw my controller at the wall 😭😭😭
I get teammates who quit on me too often, so when someone on the other team quits, it's no mercy. I would've been really bugged if my teammate quit playing
Bro im rewatching old vids. The prop hunts and hide n seek were sooooo good. Pls bring them back. You play with a new set of people vs back then so it'd be cool to see it with them. Also holy, I miss the intro jingle lol
I don't blame him for forfeiting, it sucks that the other guy left but that doesn't mean you stop playing, just go for the win and stop trolling. that was toxic form you to waste their time like that.
Hard agree. I was getting upset for his last teammate. From their POV, Leth was trolling hard. He doesn't need to dunk on them but at least go for the kickoffs. In ranked, especially down here you go for the win. If it was casual, different story.
Hello Leth, i have a suggestion : maybe you can make this in a new playlist or include it in this one, the idea is before each episode you pick a random replay from that rank review it and explain mistakes that peoples make in that rank.

I think to keep it balanced you should just force 2 games of each mode in each episode. You'll have the balance you look for and becasue they are already apart, you can have each video appeal to two different types of audience, more and less experienced. The more advance can refresh the basics and core positioning and the rookies can learn more complex things too. edit: Left the comment before I watched the whole thing and the placements. Now the rank is now that far apart by I still stand by what I said about keeping two games of each :)
I did a double take when I checked to see the rank Leth was playing at right now. Diamond three. Are you kidding me!? The only thing I have in common with this match is people leaving for almost nothing or even when they’re ahead. The rage quits are a massive headache. But also, in fairness to the rage quitter, I think he was the better player on his team and he recognized pretty quickly there was no way in hell he was gonna win that game and rather than trying educate himself and get better just plain quit. The other thing here is the massive skill difference that I see in my D3 games versus this game. It’s totally normal in D3 games to see ceiling resets, flip resets, flicks of all kind, dribbles, and then the crazy miss out of nowhere. It’s truly like the lack of consistency just kills you.
this season is rough when it comes to ranked especially in 3s and tournaments, in 3s at c1 there is a 50% chance that you either get a c3 2s player or a former gc down on his luck played a c1 tournament today and got clapped by a smurf in finals. dude was highest rank d1 with 120 games played on the account and when called out you only get "mad cuz bad" back. because you know being worse than the guy smurfing is very suprising EU btw
Played a plat tourney recently. Smooth sailing to the finals. Only for the last game to have a player so good that absolutely no body could get near the ball. GC level mechanics. Immaculate recoveries and directional air roll. Able to air dribble or slam the ball on net from anywhere. He put up like over 1000 points in the first game. Was such a dampener on the experience, cus everyone else was on the level. Guess he just wanted to get his kicks out of smurfing. Maybe he loses too much at his normal rank, and wanted to bully some plats on an alt account to feel like a big boy. Happy with my team of randos and how we did all in all though.
@@darkshibe2267 these guys are just mad that they are losing at their rank and dont want to lose gc. most players right now are at least 1 rank lower than the season before. in their mind its "i deserve it" and then they lose because the others were higher ranked than them just a bunch of sore losers tbh
Diamond is so toxic, idk what the higher ranks are like cause I haven’t been there yet but seeing that last match confirms to me that diamond has some highly toxic players. When his teammate forfeited while still being a goal up, I felt that shit man.
i don’t think leth realizes that his tm8 probably thought leth was playing in that 1v1 with the kick off. leth following up most of the plays. it would make sense for him to think that lmao
0:26 - You can post a Poll in your TH-cam Community section for only queueing 3v3s to catch-up to your 2v2 rank. If you do it when you post your next RTSSL vid and call it out in the vid then you’ll get plenty of votes specifically by the people watching these!

loll u dont understand how brutal the lower ranks are these days, if the other team has someone leave its a relief considering how inconsistent everyone is and how toxic most games are. dude prolly thought he had a easy win after like 10 toxic games and from his perspective you just stopped trying and tossed a ton of pressure on him🤣 def dumb for him to forfeit but i see why he was mad
I didn't realize this was road to ssl at first. I heard you say that you're low ranked right now but i just figured you meant low ssl. But then that bump at 2:42 happened and I was thinking dang, he really is low... these look like my games.
im confused. ive been steady c2 for the past 3 seasons but suddenly im in d2 and the opponents are flip resetting and my d2 lobbies feel like c2 lobbies. yet your d2 lobbies actually look like proper diamond. whats going on with RL 💀😭
@lethamyr why is it that we find a lot of gc & champ players in our ranked diamond games. Is it because we've been champ before? Or maybe because in casuals our mmr is champ ranks?
Wondering the same thing. I play lots of casual and there are champ players in every lobby. I've NEVER been champ let alone been in a champ tournament.
@TsugoiiDesune22 see and I've been champ tourney rank and made champ 1 but still get GC players and champ players quite often but I'm only sitting diamond 2 currently
I feel your pain. In my current form I probably would've been low champ last season, but this season I'm stuck back at dia2/3 and I know for a fact that I improved by a ton in the last 3 months. About your question: From what I know it's because at the last season reset, ranked mmr got squashed down really hard, especially at the higher ranks like cg and ssl. So ssl players got sent to gc, gcs got sent to champ, champs to diamond, etc. Now you might say that a gc should be able to easily climb out of champ, but if ALL the gcs are in champ, then they play each other all the time so suddenly they don't casually stomp their lobbies and actually need 100+ games to reach their old rank. This also means that champs get forced out of their rank by the gcs and drop to diamond, where the same thing happens all over again and it all eventually cascades down to the low ranks. So those players that stomp you in your rank are mostly not even smurfs, they are simply hardstuck because of the rank reset and quite a few of them are pretty toxic because of it. I know that it's probably a plan by the devs to fill up the very empty low ranks, but honestly this is just hurting everyone, literally no one is happy about this. I don't know why they don't just add in another rank between champ and gc and call it a day instead of making everybody's ranked miserable.
Lots of overcommits in lower rank 1v1. Some people are just playing to practice offense/shadow defense etc and don't really care about winning or losing.
About the 3s and 2s q.I think it would be more interesting to have the ranks as close as possible and see how they differ. Something like finding the rank where mechs and consistency start to be more developed in one vs the other. Is mid diamond in 3s still equivalent to low champ in 2s?
Leth im kinda late but ive just watched the second episode and one thing id really like to see you mention or maybe even mess around with is boost management and what some mistakes like boosting while turning or boosting in supersonic could look like Given you’re already facing diamonds i dont know how relevant this is though
if you were my tm8 in diamond 3 2’s i would’ve 1000% thought you were throwing on purpose. simply because no one plays as slow as you were (obviously you’re playing smart) but no one plays smart in diamond 2’s lmao. like 10-5% of my teammates actually think about what they’re trying to do
Hey Leth, I have been wondering this for a while and everyone always shuts me down about it. But everytimie I play casuals and vs against better players then go back to ranked my ranked games get messed up. I could fall down to plat 1 from champ and play against champs every game. There will be some players of that elo, but they have a bad experience and so do I. I usually wait for season reset to fix this cause it is so hard to climb. I really don't want to smurf, but I am hard stuck with champ 2 elo in Diamond 3 3's, sometimes they ca't hit the ball, sometimes they hit every double tap. If you played casuals to a high elo then play ranked, would you have the same problem? It's probably too late for you to see this.
YO Leth much love your videos are great, I am a plat 2 and I see the videos of you 2v2 diamonds and I think that I'm better and I have been wanting to play an SSL to get the experience of playing a high-level player pls if you can I would like to play you in a 2v2 with your handicap no boost. Again, much love keep up the videos.
I don’t understand how the kids leth is fighting in 2’s at d3 are this dog shit but when I play 2’s at d3 they are the equivalent of a Gc but slower it’s fucking bullshit I legit cannot get out of diamond

I feel like watching you grind through low rank 3v3s is going to lead to some awesome content! This season has been wild so far on my journey lol
the ultimate winning move is to get your teammates to leave you in a 1v3 and Leth goes "Ima play for the other team" 😁
Now every lower rank rocket league player know how the rats feel in the labs.
I get teammates who quit on me too often, so when someone on the other team quits, it's no mercy. I would've been really bugged if my teammate quit playing
Do 3v3 more often. 2s is relatively easy to learn how to play while 3s is a bit more complex and (in my opinion) fun
The analysis in this series is always great. Amazing Leth does it while playing!

It's disappointing he was calling out his teammate for being toxic while being significantly more toxic himself.
Completely agree. Think the teammate just wanted to get the dub and move on.
That match just showcased everything wrong with Diamond and Champ level Rocket League.

Hello Leth, i have a suggestion : maybe you can make this in a new playlist or include it in this one, the idea is before each episode you pick a random replay from that rank review it and explain mistakes that peoples make in that rank.
I think to keep it balanced you should just force 2 games of each mode in each episode. You'll have the balance you look for and becasue they are already apart, you can have each video appeal to two different types of audience, more and less experienced.
The more advance can refresh the basics and core positioning and the rookies can learn more complex things too.
edit: Left the comment before I watched the whole thing and the placements. Now the rank is now that far apart by I still stand by what I said about keeping two games of each :)
I did a double take when I checked to see the rank Leth was playing at right now. Diamond three. Are you kidding me!? The only thing I have in common with this match is people leaving for almost nothing or even when they’re ahead. The rage quits are a massive headache. But also, in fairness to the rage quitter, I think he was the better player on his team and he recognized pretty quickly there was no way in hell he was gonna win that game and rather than trying educate himself and get better just plain quit. The other thing here is the massive skill difference that I see in my D3 games versus this game. It’s totally normal in D3 games to see ceiling resets, flip resets, flicks of all kind, dribbles, and then the crazy miss out of nowhere. It’s truly like the lack of consistency just kills you.
this season is rough when it comes to ranked
especially in 3s and tournaments, in 3s at c1 there is a 50% chance that you either get a c3 2s player or a former gc down on his luck
played a c1 tournament today and got clapped by a smurf in finals. dude was highest rank d1 with 120 games played on the account and when called out you only get "mad cuz bad" back.
because you know being worse than the guy smurfing is very suprising
EU btw
Played a plat tourney recently. Smooth sailing to the finals. Only for the last game to have a player so good that absolutely no body could get near the ball. GC level mechanics. Immaculate recoveries and directional air roll. Able to air dribble or slam the ball on net from anywhere. He put up like over 1000 points in the first game. Was such a dampener on the experience, cus everyone else was on the level. Guess he just wanted to get his kicks out of smurfing. Maybe he loses too much at his normal rank, and wanted to bully some plats on an alt account to feel like a big boy. Happy with my team of randos and how we did all in all though.
@@darkshibe2267 these guys are just mad that they are losing at their rank and dont want to lose gc. most players right now are at least 1 rank lower than the season before. in their mind its "i deserve it" and then they lose because the others were higher ranked than them
just a bunch of sore losers tbh
Diamond is so toxic, idk what the higher ranks are like cause I haven’t been there yet but seeing that last match confirms to me that diamond has some highly toxic players. When his teammate forfeited while still being a goal up, I felt that shit man.
i don’t think leth realizes that his tm8 probably thought leth was playing in that 1v1 with the kick off. leth following up most of the plays. it would make sense for him to think that lmao
0:26 - You can post a Poll in your TH-cam Community section for only queueing 3v3s to catch-up to your 2v2 rank. If you do it when you post your next RTSSL vid and call it out in the vid then you’ll get plenty of votes specifically by the people watching these!
I’ve learned a lot about positioning from these videos. I was hard stuck gold but im consistent plat and slowly climbing now.
Meme ideas:
Rizzler- rizzo with the rizz
Sizzle- sizzling in the pan
Anthena - athena with anthena
Sandmam- jon sandman with the sand guy from spider-man
About 1v1s, yes. 1s are incredibly volatile even as high as upper champ due to the "randomness" of kickoffs
26:24 is my favorite point of this vid.

Leth what mic did you get? It sounds like a RE20 or TLM-102. Definitely a condenser mic though

@Lethamyr I got one thing right at least LMAO I use an AT and couldn't tell 😂 woe is me
@@Lethamyr if I gave you my SM7B, would you use it
This has happened to me so I went god mode to get ahead than i forfeit the match so they got karma
loll u dont understand how brutal the lower ranks are these days, if the other team has someone leave its a relief considering how inconsistent everyone is and how toxic most games are. dude prolly thought he had a easy win after like 10 toxic games and from his perspective you just stopped trying and tossed a ton of pressure on him🤣 def dumb for him to forfeit but i see why he was mad
LethaMirk - It's you but spooky!
Loving the series btw! ❤
I didn't realize this was road to ssl at first. I heard you say that you're low ranked right now but i just figured you meant low ssl. But then that bump at 2:42 happened and I was thinking dang, he really is low... these look like my games.
I really want to see Leth and someone like rapid go into threes and just roll around
Sizzo… Lizzo with Sizz face 😂😂😂
im confused. ive been steady c2 for the past 3 seasons but suddenly im in d2 and the opponents are flip resetting and my d2 lobbies feel like c2 lobbies. yet your d2 lobbies actually look like proper diamond. whats going on with RL 💀😭
@lethamyr why is it that we find a lot of gc & champ players in our ranked diamond games. Is it because we've been champ before? Or maybe because in casuals our mmr is champ ranks?
Wondering the same thing. I play lots of casual and there are champ players in every lobby. I've NEVER been champ let alone been in a champ tournament.
@TsugoiiDesune22 see and I've been champ tourney rank and made champ 1 but still get GC players and champ players quite often but I'm only sitting diamond 2 currently
It's just smurfs
@Almostsomeone some yes, but I don't think that's always the case based off of the gameplay.
I feel your pain. In my current form I probably would've been low champ last season, but this season I'm stuck back at dia2/3 and I know for a fact that I improved by a ton in the last 3 months. About your question: From what I know it's because at the last season reset, ranked mmr got squashed down really hard, especially at the higher ranks like cg and ssl. So ssl players got sent to gc, gcs got sent to champ, champs to diamond, etc. Now you might say that a gc should be able to easily climb out of champ, but if ALL the gcs are in champ, then they play each other all the time so suddenly they don't casually stomp their lobbies and actually need 100+ games to reach their old rank. This also means that champs get forced out of their rank by the gcs and drop to diamond, where the same thing happens all over again and it all eventually cascades down to the low ranks. So those players that stomp you in your rank are mostly not even smurfs, they are simply hardstuck because of the rank reset and quite a few of them are pretty toxic because of it. I know that it's probably a plan by the devs to fill up the very empty low ranks, but honestly this is just hurting everyone, literally no one is happy about this. I don't know why they don't just add in another rank between champ and gc and call it a day instead of making everybody's ranked miserable.
I love the rtssl series. Can you touch on Tips to come off ball cam
that planzero own goal was text book typical of those that learn arials before fundamentals.
Lots of overcommits in lower rank 1v1. Some people are just playing to practice offense/shadow defense etc and don't really care about winning or losing.
About the 3s and 2s q.I think it would be more interesting to have the ranks as close as possible and see how they differ. Something like finding the rank where mechs and consistency start to be more developed in one vs the other. Is mid diamond in 3s still equivalent to low champ in 2s?
The best rocket league video I've watched so far omg that was hilarious
love your videos they always lighten my mood
IMAGINE smurfing every season and not facing any punishment.
The last couple seasons in 3s I’ve been plat 3 but this season I’ve been stuck in gold 3 sometimes plat 1. It’s crazy.

I need to rewatch the old episodes. Did we always had so many leavers?

Leth im kinda late but ive just watched the second episode and one thing id really like to see you mention or maybe even mess around with is boost management and what some mistakes like boosting while turning or boosting in supersonic could look like
Given you’re already facing diamonds i dont know how relevant this is though
Might be the earliest I've caught a leth vid

if you were my tm8 in diamond 3 2’s i would’ve 1000% thought you were throwing on purpose. simply because no one plays as slow as you were (obviously you’re playing smart) but no one plays smart in diamond 2’s lmao. like 10-5% of my teammates actually think about what they’re trying to do
Bro this was hilarious 😆
Hey Leth, I have been wondering this for a while and everyone always shuts me down about it. But everytimie I play casuals and vs against better players then go back to ranked my ranked games get messed up. I could fall down to plat 1 from champ and play against champs every game. There will be some players of that elo, but they have a bad experience and so do I. I usually wait for season reset to fix this cause it is so hard to climb. I really don't want to smurf, but I am hard stuck with champ 2 elo in Diamond 3 3's, sometimes they ca't hit the ball, sometimes they hit every double tap. If you played casuals to a high elo then play ranked, would you have the same problem? It's probably too late for you to see this.

YO Leth much love your videos are great, I am a plat 2 and I see the videos of you 2v2 diamonds and I think that I'm better and I have been wanting to play an SSL to get the experience of playing a high-level player pls if you can I would like to play you in a 2v2 with your handicap no boost. Again, much love keep up the videos.
Bruh. These d3 2s lobbies feel so docile compared to the lobbies i get queued into.
Bro, i swear my plat matches back in season 2 f2p had opponents who could sollidly shoot the ball. Though everything else is basically the same lol
How about Leathermyr?
I don’t understand how the kids leth is fighting in 2’s at d3 are this dog shit but when I play 2’s at d3 they are the equivalent of a Gc but slower it’s fucking bullshit I legit cannot get out of diamond

Lmao welcome to the lower ranks leth we deal with these inconsistencies every day 😩
Fr tho why my d3 lobby go people hit flip resets and hit dude's can barley flick
Why do you get to go against great value diamonds and I’m stuck with ex grand champs in d3
Leth low ones is ether high scoring like that or just 1 goal wins just like the top ya know always depends on the players lol
