I recently watched a new post by FluuMP titled "10 things pro rocket league players do". It was informative on things basically anyone can improve on from boost management to what you should be watching instead of the ball. Every day since I watched it I've been lucky enough to get in a few matches a day going in with the focus of just practicing these things. Today I was onto the simple tip, spread out. Before this video I would have teammates follow so incredibly close I wouldn't know what to do and really...I still don't besides ask once to try and spread out please. Sadly it has only worked in 1 match today. So I'm here to ask why you people do it? What are you expecting to happen? At my level ball control in minimal and mainly alot of booms be it ground or air. So when you follow so close to your teammate and they boom it away like always...We just get to watch the sad story of 2 teammates in the same spot watching the ball leave them. The only thing I can imagine they think will happen is someone will contest you and they will jump to react...Yeah I don't know if you've ever percentile broke down the odds of hitting a ball if you just jump in the air...right behind your teammate vs away. Your car takes up a very small % of the available hit room but you are very likely taking yourself out of the game when you jump just to watch it waltz by you singing and dancing. He explained it like 3s are a triangle and 2s are more an X. When I 1st played with higher tier players I didn't understand it for myself. They would say to sit across from them and at the time it didn't make sense because I couldn't read the ball at all it was all reflexes. Now I've learned to trust the strangers because they are all I've got this match. Spread out and let everyone try to do their part and you just might learn a thing or two. Sorry for the rant I just needed to share.
