Does the matchmaking deliberately pair you with sh*t people right before you get to Champion?

Just a tip, find anyone decent that you match up with, and add them as a friend. If you have people around online that are not afking or just plain trash, it should help your rank a lot.

Absolutely carried my teammate to the final tonight in 2v2, all they had to do was literally sit back and let me do the work so I could have my first tourney win, instead 3 bad passes for goals game 1 so we get done comfortably, and then in a tight game 2 repeats the efforts.

Might as well change my name to St Kilda the way finals are going for me.

Nothing annoys me more than when you solo queue and get matched with randoms that do nothing but ball chase. Especially in a 2v2 when one should stay back at all times.

High Plat/Low diamond. Diamond is a sh*t show of people who think they're too good to be there and people who coming up from plat who aren't quite up to it. The new ranking system means Champ 1 is really the new diamond

Diamond is purgatory. I dropped from Champ because I got a couple of smurfs, and a couple of bad teammates in a row and now I go all the way to Diamond 3 and about to go up, and then I get paired with a newly promoted Diamond 1 and it goes to shit.

Diamond is ****ing hard mode for this game.

Fail to win a tournament for several weeks.

Won my second within 4 days just a few minutes ago. 3 v 3, I don't think the party I was in appreciated me, I scored some key goals at times... but my defence was woeful (1 successful save every 5 attempts or so lol), they booted me from the party seconds after winning and being taken back to the main menu :P
 
I still get super excited during games where it's tight for a few minutes be it scoreless or quick goal for goal... the other person may take the lead with a quick burst, then I get a quick reply...... and then I somehow manage to burst through and create a score gap.

<---- basically me with every goal scored during a tight contest :D

Last night I was in a tournament match where the first 2 games were tight, tense 2-1 or 1-0 wins, and game 3 was a 9-8 goal fest. Both squeaky bum time games.

Just lost a 3 v 3 quarterfinal and it was basically my fault (twice). Leading 2 - 1 with seconds remaining I jumped up to deflect a shot at goal.... it was a successful block.... but instead of the ball falling in front of me it went over my car and straight into goal (whooooooooooooooooooops). They won in less than 3 seconds of overtime, at the kick off the two players raced to the ball, and it did the diagonal pinball deflection straight into our goal :( myself and my other teammate jumped up to try and intercept it but hit nothing but air hahaha.

I got knocked out of a semi final last night from a ball that was in their corner, preparing for a cross to an open teammate, their player came in late, caused a pinch and the ball rocketed into our goal at about 110km :/

This game is as much fun as it is mentally abusive.

Basically! :(

We were doing well in the early rounds as well. Scoring goals convincingly (power shots galore), even in the previous round it was just 2 v 3 for a while as one teammate didn't come into the game until the last minute. Luckily myself and the other player combined to have a 4 - 1 lead before he joined the game. And this was a shock in itself as the 3 opposition players had the diamond tournament winner in their planner banner (thinking that they'd be too strong in a 3 v 2 situation).

But we love it when WE are on the scoring end and see it happen to the other team :p
I've done a few high powered shots (intended as clearing from the defending end) that have sailed directly into the top left/right corner..... getting decent at aiming from a long distance away - when I'm in this kind of form the game is fun as. I'll go back to fluffing it up soon though haha.



I've been using ARE YOU READY TO ROCK...............ET LEAGUE as my main introduction before matches
I've also been playing 2 v 2 hoops a bit recently and can't resist quick typing NBA JAM commentary in between points scored :P

(We went on to lose 1-0 and 4-3 in the final)

Polar opposite on Xbox and pc tonight

Played a 3 v 3 tournament on Xbox, ended up losing really badly (which was amusing as we were all three tournament winners paired up against nobodies!) - just couldn't mesh well together. I got a few REALLY awesome epic saves in, but little other highlights.

Played a few competitive 1 v 1 and casual 2 v 2/3 v 3 games and was pretty crap in all of them.

Played a 2 v 2 tournament on pc, it was as though I had a form reversal in an hour and a half between my xbox games to then try my luck on the pc version. Scored 4 goals and won 7 - 1 (it was more the quality of the opposition and the fact their pings were 600+ lol). Won the next game 4 - 0 (scoring 3 goals this time), the following round was a downer. We ran into supreme opposition that called every wrong move we did "trash".

The amusing thing was that whenever the other person would put us down, we'd score. After the third time I was like "mate you shouldn't talk trash so much, clearly it backfires whenever you do it" that shut him up :P
 
Finally won a ****ing 3v3 tourney tonight. Best blend of players in my team. One dude was a ball chaser, another dude was a balanced player and I just sat in the defensive half, cleaned up everything, put the ball forward for the other two. Closest win was SF1 game 1 we won 1-0, game 2 was 8-2. The rest of the games were 4/5 goals for us, 1 or 2 goals for them.

But its funny because first game we went 2-0 down in about 10 seconds and I thought hopefully I get a better team in the next tourney. We won 5-2, and then never went behind in a match for the rest of the tourney.
 
I love tournaments like that, first game is a bit iffy and I wonder if we'll lose fast enough to be able to get into the "second chance" tournament that's due to start in a few minutes. Then you end up going further than expected. I try to modify and adjust my play style depending what the teammate(s) I end up with. I prefer to be the tweener (not direct goal keeper or goal scorer, but someone that can assist in both areas when required). I prefer to be the person that sets things up, I am better suited at getting the ball into position for goal scoring attempts (centering off the wall etc).

I've got a few goal highlights to post from various games over the last month, I'll start with the most recent :p



I like the second one, nothing like using your opponent to score the goal!!


1 on 1 action -



Very basic game play, still managed to win :P

I had a match in the tournament where I hit my teammates 3 times for goals, and two of my centered balls clipped teammates before the other teammate scored, so I should have finished with at least 450 points, instead ended the match on 70 (teammates finished on about 500 points each) and had the opposition screaming "reeeee carried" :tearsofjoy:
 
Won a 2 v 2 tournament tonight

I was kinda like the Luke Hodge of the team, involving myself in scoring and defence (partner wasn't very good... either am I to tell the truth, I can hold my own most of the time, but it doesn't take much to go pear shape :P). Our hardest match was the first basically came back from 3 - 1 down to win 4 - 3!!

The rest of the matches were 3 - 1, 4 - 2 style scorelines. Our opponents were really average (most fell for my easiest trick, rolling the ball against the wall and then jumping up to tap it in at the goal line). I'll try to upload a few of the matches (especially the first), will need to shrink them down from 1gb per recording first.

I was in the 9pm tourney too. We annihilated the first two teams then did the greatest of all chokes in the 3rd game.

We never lose because we are outplayed by elites either, we usually just shit the bed and stuff up simple things.

As soon as we lose we both get off for the night lol.

My teammate and I were 4th on the goals scored per team when we were in the semis and we faced off against the third rated team in the final. I was like WTF is happening as it's been a few weeks since my last tournament win (closest I've come to winning since the last time was a semis appearance. I've been eliminated first round or qtr finals most of the time). But I was nailing most shots, and keeping us in it with reasonable defending, did stuff up one goal where I should have blocked the ball.... but I didn't jump high enough so it went over my head. Happy that it clicked and even though my teammate was not very good, we still stayed competitive enough to win every game. I actually don't think the opposition was that great in every match which helped us advance.

I tend to punish myself a lot, if I end up on a losing streak I don't stop playing until I finally win a game (there was one instance where I tortured myself for 2+ hours until I finally won a game lol).
 
Recorded a clip while playing with mates, had a decent minute here, got rammed twice on the wall by my teammate and still managed to score, and got a solo goal right after (Apologies for language + distortion on mic).
 
I love executing goals like your second one, granted I don't always do them very well when under pressure (being bumped by other players in 3 v 3 for example) or under extremely fast pace. But if you get the right kind of opponents that have slow reaction times, its fun to be able to dribble the ball a bit then bob the ball up in the air and slot it in the goal.

First match this morning..... did well to lead 2 - 0. Opponents in the 3 v 3 pegged one goal back, then out of nowhere one of our teammates turned against us and helped the other team score 2 goals to go 3 - 2 up. Ends up costing us the win :(.




Opening match from the 2 v 2 tournament last night, split it up into 2 parts (and lowered the quality down to 480p) to get the file size down.

First part is the introduction


Second part is the comeback from 1 - 3 down.
