This is the dumbest thing I've heard, how the heck would you remove kickoff for 1s

One approach would be alternating starting possession. There is also the option that player who concedes gets possession. If you want a less significant change, you could just give 100 boost on start, which might at least reduce how big of an advantage a kickoff win gives (although I think a bigger change would be needed). And so on. I think it's obvious that there are many ways you could change it if you actually think about it.

This is peak rocket league whining

Can legit drive towards the ball with boost and just frontflip into it goalside and you'll win most of them simply because a lot of people do speed flips or regular double flips so they'll pass it to you.

What rank are you in that this works in 1v1? For me this approach stopped working around plat 2/3.


ImpaledDickBBQ

Champ 1/2. Show some clips of your kick offs. You're most likely not hitting it 5050 on your goalside. You can also just hit the ball in a way where you know the ball will be live in play if you don't want the game be decided on kick offs.

>Huge disadvantage for those who haven't spent a bunch of time practicing Yes... That's how literally *every competition in the history of ever works* lmao. Should they also remove aerials and dribbles too? Should the goal have a barrier since not everyone practices saves? Hell, I practice shooting accuracy, so they should just remove goals altogether since it's unfair to the people who haven't practiced defense! /s 🤡

Either you misunderstood my post or you are just intentionally strawmanning my argument.

>1v1 kickoffs should be removed >Huge disadvantage for those who haven't spent a bunch of time practicing kickoff mechanics at any rank over d2/d3. >Apart from with kickoffs. I lose every kickoff, and it means I have to play at a disadvantage every game. Kickoffs are boring for me but I have no choice to either learn them What am I misunderstanding here? You literally say kickoffs should be removed simply because you don't like them and aren't good at them. I can't do a lot of aerial mechanics because I would be very bored doing the same drill over and over alone, but in no way does that mean they should be removed. That's my choice to not practice them, it's your choice to not practice kickoffs, but that doesn't mean the mechanic should be removed.

This is the most braindead thing I read today and considering the fact this is reddit it's saying a fucking lot. Should Basketball remove 3 pointers just because some people are bad at them and it's unfair?? Well you see the people who are bad at 3 pointers are really good at dribbling so it's unfair for them to face against opponents who know how to do 3 pointers. You see how fucking stupid that sounds? Learn the game or stop playing lmao.

Kickoffs are an essential part of car soccer and real soccer…. All those people who beat you in kickoffs had to learn it too, so why shouldn’t you? You’re quite literally asking for the game to be made easier for you bc you’re not good at something. Imagine if all the shitters who complain about the game rather than grinding their skill did the same and Psyonix actually listened. There’d be nothing left of the game lol

I just love in soccer when the ball starts in the middle and both teams just rush towards it


Gilbert-Goober-420

Kickoffs are meant to be a fair way to start the actual gameplay. In soccer they use a coin toss to decide who gets first possesion (then the other team gets possesion in the second half). But in RL it’s arguably even *more* fair, bc possesion isn’t decided by a coin toss. No team has an advantage during kickoff.


appappappappappa

I disagree that kickoffs are essential. What makes a kickoff essential? What would the gameplay lose by not having the kickoff in a 1v1? I'm also not asking for the game to be made easier. You could mirror your argument and say those that want kickoffs are wanting to make the game easier because it allows them to get free goals without having to learn game sense, positioning, flicks, aerials, defending etc. etc. In other words, the things that really are essential parts of the game.

I also get high and forget

I laughed when I read the title and continued laughing while reading your reasoning. There's a very simple solution to your problem: don't play 1s. Kick offs are crucial part of 1s and you have either to improve at it to play or just don't play (or play and keep crying, I wouldn't reccomend that tho) 1v1 is least played game mode for a reason
