This video explains a 5 things you should master, that will help your game play. I have also added my opinion on each to whether I believe them to be a must or not.
1.) Low 50/50s
MUST - There are so many times when an opportunity for a 50/50 arises. Being prepared (i.e. training, play time, placement, etc.) is essential to winning a 50/50. I believe they are a must because they can happen not only in the opposing net or mid field, but also near your net.
2.) Weird off-the-wall shot
SITUATIONAL - While it is good to be able to get a goal from a shot off-the-wall, I do not believe it is necessary to be successful in your games.
3.) Holding Drift
SITUATIONAL - While this will definitely make you faster in your gameplay and recovery, I do not believe it is necessary to be successful in your games.
4.) Half flipping
MUST - There are many situations in which a correctly performed half flip could prevent a goal and/or put you in position to score. Half flipping will also make your gameplay faster and smoother, allowing for improvement in your gameplay.
5.) Air rolling
MUST - I strongly believe that air rolling is essential to every aspect of Rocket League. There are times that it may not be necessary, but on more occasions that I can count - it has been crucial to scoring or saving a goal.
Let talk about it guys!
