Im a top 1% player in Rocket League after playing for 4500 hours. The skill gap between me and the best players in the game is the same gap as between me and a brand new player.

But i will still beat 99% of the game's population.

As an 800 hour player that has to put the game down because of competitiveness making me a curmudgeon -- Wow, gotta say. That's so much work.

Did you use the practice modes to get to be that level or did it just come to you during play?

  • Tons of freeplay
  • Tons of mods/workshop map
  • Ive had some coaching
  • And I also play in an amateur league

As long as you always play to improve, watch videos to keep up on mechanics/metas, and just immerse yourself in the game, you'll always climb up. If you play at least 2 hours a day, you'll be insane before you know it.

But in the spirit of this post, you could spend your time doing something so much more productive than a video game lol
