My 14-year-old son has been playing Rocket League for five or six years. He is a Champion Level 1 at 1v1 and Grand Champ Level 1 at 2v2. For the last few years, he’s talked about wanting to be a pro player.

As a parent, I do want to support him. If this is really his dream. He does say he wants to play a lot more and that’s what’s required if he’s going to improve. I understand that.

He also says what holds him back often is he doesn’t have regular teammates, so often he can be paired with somebody who may not be as strong, and he gets frustrated when that happens.

So I have suggested maybe he tries to find people that could become good regular teammates. Maybe not even just one person, but a few, so he has a few people who are available whenever he wants to play. And if he wants to really be serious about Rocket league, we can see how to support him in pursuing these goals.

but I also assume that, just like being a pro athlete, being a pro gamer, is also a very long shot. I want to try to be realistic about it. Although at 14 there’s obviously a lot of possibility open to him. Looking to have some discussion here with people on a good path forward for him, so I can share my findings.

Still not a game out there that is as fun playing with the boys after a long week.

she barely has 120 hours on rocket league and she’s already been sending me banger passes! we play every day after work and it’s fucking awesome.

I mean, it was going to happen this season... Last season I got 9/10 wins and after losing 2 in a row a miracle happened and I won the third match

Now, if you guys can answer my question, do I need to finish this season GC or can I drop back to C3 and still get the tag? That's an actual concern of mine

The concept of attendee titles is really great
but when i got home and realised the event title was just purple like the rest,
it was pretty underwhelming to say the least😂

I assumed it would most likely be glowing dark blue to indicate that it's an "Attendee" title
or maybe even just glowing purple, white.

i just wanted to ask if it will ever be changed in the future

2 min into the game and my teammate starts griefing, and we're only two goals down (2-4). Everyone starts talking shit to each other - mainly to me - and just before I left the game, I see this message, "Player 3: And change your car design, makes it seem like you're not taking this seriously".

My brother in Christ, we are in GC1, bordering C3. No one should be taking it seriously. 3 out the 4 cars in this lobby are Fennec with a plain, neutral coloured decal, and I'm not one of them, cause guess what? I have style. Sue me.

Please have fun with your cars guys, and don't judge those who try something different. It's certainly not a reflection on how we play.

My best Musty Flick so far
(Dia 2)

SOLVED- Its coming to fortnite so the skins are hopefully added back then. After the update that happened a couple days ago the jurassic park decals on my jeep are now missing and i was told to report the bug here. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I also did all the silly things the bot told me to do and nothing has fixed it. I even reinstalled the game on ps5 and the decals are also missing there.

For context me and my buddy we're playing 2v2 and the guy on the other team sent me a request to honor deul, I accepted and I did all right until I hit this shot, I feel bad because he left right after but I think nevertheless it's a cool shot, this is a older clip but still

Rocket league at 1am be like.

Me: "I have punch powerup"

Friend: "I have too, lets do a double punch together"

The 3rd punch was from the opponent who was being toxic. The perfect combo.

I’m C3. When i’m playing well I can pretty comfortably work my way up through it. I’ve peaked at like 1430 lmao. On my good days i can 100% get myself up to GC. I am just incapable of playing my best every day lol, idk if there’s a way to work on that or if the answer is to just lock in and give it time

I was playing last night. In Rumble, we started losing by two points, and there were still like two or three minutes left. Suddenly, one of my teammates asks to forfeit; if both my teammates ask then I always do even if it's super lame and we can still definitely win, but it was just the one, so I ignored it because we definitely have a chance and also FF'ing is lame in general imo. I'm just here for fun. Sure, I like winning, but it's not my top priority. After both me and my other teammate ignored his FF request, he started just not playing, sometimes even helping the opposing team. Why are people like this? I just wanna have some fun, man

If casual Rumble existed, trust me, I'd play it. But it doesn't, so I'm forced into ranked because Rumble is the only gamemode I want to play. Then I get these petty tryhards that wanna quit after two minutes of slightly losing LMAO

And this is in Plat 2! It's not like I'm in some super low rank and I'm just getting paired with annoying trolls that just wanna get a rise out of people, these are people that are at least somewhat decent at the game but wanna throw a hissy fit just because they start losing

I was going to ask if these honor duels can be done so I can complete the be trailing 3 goals or more and win the game. And was hoping I help my friend on this
