    Hey Sunless, you're an amazing RL youtuber and more than that you are a great human! Thanks for sharing AirNinja's RL journey to date! He really enjoyed being in the video and is very grateful of all the positivity from everyone! Your RL skills are under appreciated and hopefully next time AirNinja can get the win!

      Honestly I think it's just a matter of time. The "youngest gc" isn't a permanent title that just sticks to one person. Rocket league surely isn't going anywhere in the next 5 years, so young kids will be picking up this game and becoming very good at it.

      Yea good for you because my self esteem just went down some levels especially because this kid is seven (also probs has a lot less hours than me in the game) and a lot better than me and i mean a lot. But then i realised that you can't be the best in life at everything because everyone is good in their own way and good at diffrent things. If everyone were to be like this kid, the world would be boring.

    I was just as impressed with the kid's poise and manners (while both winning AND losing) as I was with his ridiculous skill. Nothing but positive things to say about his teammate, while internalizing mistakes without blaming his teammate. No hint of an ego problem, either. I really could care less if he were Bronze, Gold, GC, or SSL; the fact that he's already this mature about mistakes and losses is the really amazing thing.

    The fact that he can be this good at such a young age, gives me hope for this game lasting a really long time. At 21, I just started playing this game on and off a year ago, (currently mid-plat), ramping up consistency recently, and I am still learning new things every time I practice and play. If younger audiences grow up with this game, I can’t even imagine the insane things they’ll be able to pull off after a few years of practice.

    I am completely shocked by this young kid, he is completely amazing and quite a prodigy! He has excellent communications mid-game and I even learned something while watching him, how a ball was in the corner and kept being in the corner and he explained to Sunless how he wanted to push the ball to the other side to allow for more spacing in a 2's match. Insane, and thank you for showcasing this!

This just blows my mind this kid is for certain a genius. He sounds way older than he is he’s very well spoken as many have said.

I was a 3 times dancing, singing, and an acting champion in school and used to do piano shows at school as well. Talking about theater i also took up a role as a prince infront of our ex president (had a show) and also danced infront of another ex president (also a show). In sports: i was a 2 times table tennis champion and a sliver medalist at badminton and was a running race champion all the time. I took up lawn tennis as as my career and started doing awesome winning tournaments until i broke my wrist. I was a prodigy in cricket as well, as at the age of 10 i was out playing everyone aged 15 16 or even 18. I was a great swimmer, ice skater and used to do great at drawing. I even used to do modeling as a kid. Now i am garbage in life. I never made close friends with anyone (even though everyone liked me) because my parents didn't allow, never had a girlfriend (even though i had many proposals because i was good looking and many other things) because parents said it will be harmful for my tennis career. Now i am shit watching rocket league videos and doing nothing in life. I hate my life. Sorry i just had to get my fustration out.
