- How much better is a top 1% vs top 5% rocket league player? We are answering that question in this video. I challenged Zspeed to some Rocket League skill challenges and we compared our scores and times to each other.
Workshop Map: Speed Jump: Trials 4
Training Pack #1 (High Aerials) 76CD-1B72-20D9-53DC
Training Pack #2 (Ceiling Shots) 94D7-0D24-CCDF-7A7A
Training Pack #3 (Advanced Redirects) DF0E-C915-4B43-F767

I am a top 1% Rocket League player. Zspeed is a top 5% Rocket League players. We got together to try out various skill challenges to see how exactly we would perform compared to each other. Both of us are high level Rocket League players, but the difference in skill between us is very big. There wasn't a single challenge that Zspeed beat me in. I made this experiment to test out the difference between a top 5% Rocket League player and a top 1% Rocket League player.

Thanks for watching guys! I’m working on another HUGE Esports Documentary that should hopefully be coming out within a month so stay tuned!! 👀
what rank was zspeed
Wassup Wayton! Can we make a vid on what the difference is between a wannabe freestyler(me) and an amazing gc! Like what statistics would make these two different and how would that effect gameplay with a tm8!
@@mile5892 c2
Love the vid Wayton!
It amazes me at how good some people are you are very good at this game keep it up!
I wish you got a more averagely mechanical champ 2. His mechanics were a little too good that the difference between you two didn't look as large as it would usually look between c2 and gc 2.
He was c2?? Damn I was thinking he was high c3 his mechanics are great, I’m c1/c2 and I can’t hit the ball off of the wall most of the time LMAO
nah these comments are tripping. If you have 4K hours and ur only c2 you're def doing smth wrong. Definitely expected better mechs w 4k hours - I got 1k rn, sitting at c2-3 w better mechs than this guy. No offense and I'm not trying to flex but 4k hours should be mininum gc2 imo
Who else thinks Wayton should make another of the same video at some point?
C2 are pretty mechanical lol
@@oukiV his game sense and rotation will be very lacking.
Id consider myself c1 but ive played a lot of high c1 matches and some low c2 and if i came across zspeed in a match id call him a smurf
Lmao my friend freestyleur is always call a gc smurf , but he is c1-c2
Same here. Mechs like this are not that common in c1-c2. Game sense regardless, when you see someone pulling ceiling shot mustys you gotta think smurf. This guy is way above average mechanically for c2.
Yeah, no shot in hell that guy is c2
are the comments joking? i did use to only freestyle but his mechanics are not good for high champ
@@lol-bg4wh c2 is mid champ, most c2s in my games cant aerial, so me and my tm8 just dominate the aerial game. Its basic flakes theory tbh
this is just wayton boosting his ego after being clapped by a pro last time xD
Fax
"is a higher ranked player better than a lower ranked player?" yes, no shit. i enjoyed the video out of boredom but still just seemed like a good lil ego boost.
Yeah his demeanor is super ego. Kinda weirdo ngl
@@seryal i mean, the question wasnt if its better, just how much, and as stated at the end, not that much
i mean he is undeniably a very good player
Well done video, but I wonder if it would have been more illustrative so use custom maps and training packs neither of you had tried previously.
Yeah that would def be better but I had to run through them once to make sure they were fair and reasonable for the video. I offered him to do a run through of each before his actual attempt as well but he decided not to on some.
@@WaytonPilkin Wait, but than why didn't you simply use your first "test run" as a comparison? I mean you must have had footage from your first run...
I think Zspeed is not very representative of an average Champ 2 player, the man has 4000 hours, and is quite good mechanically, and this trial is all about mechanics.
I'm a Champ 3, I'd say above average mechanically, and I most likely would not beat his time in any category. I think the average top 5%/Champ 2 player would have much better positional awareness than Zspeed but much worse mechanics, therefore I think they wouldn't fair as well as he did in this specific challenge
Same here, C3 and there is no way I beat the first workshop map with only 1 fail
Great video anyways, Zspeed is such a chill guy
I was about to say, I am around champ 2 , but I'd say because of good basics and positioning.
I only just started practicing airrol aerials (only use it for shooting and recovering) because I feel I am to reliant on my teammate rn which is slowing down my progression in ranked too much.
I would do a lot worse on these packs.
@@oukiV don't you have anything better than do than replying to every comment who are praising this guy or are you so hungry for attention that you can't see anybody else get praised
Yeah I’m gc2 almost and I have 500 hours or 550 hours
hi wayton, next time can you compare a GC3, a GC2 and a GC1? Not only comparing their training abilities, but also making them 1v1 eachother
good idea
I second that! 👌
Zspeed: "This just inspired me to get better."
Wayton: "I fucking destroyed him, and my shots had way more style!"
Joking obviously, but his comment was extremely wholesome and seemed to fly right over Wayton's head. Zspeed seems like a real solid dude though.
Ngl seemed like a video just for wayton to flex... but ok!
@@BH-ix7nq He did a video with a 0.01% player too.
Really great show case of how despite being mechanically superior, the 1v1 was close as it came down to more of the fundamental skills and less of the flashy skills :)
Loved it!
So fun to hear you guys having a blast! :)
Love the video keep them up and keep up that motivation xo
He was definitely the peak end of a champ 2 judging by his mechanics, I'm champ and if I saw him do a Crossman air dribble flip reset I'd prob call him a smurf.
Wayton: "Let's do some random challenges to see who is better"
Also Wayton: *Picks everything he excels at*
No hate, definitely a gap, but seems a little biased since like you always talk about, mechanics aren't everything. And tbh, this match up was pretty much entirely mechanics based.
the guy he was versing is a general manager for pulse clan he should naturally have good mechs
@@awsi469 a Manager isnt a player…
There's not too many game-sense or positioning related training challenges you could do though. Also I think he actually makes a good point showing that even he won all the mechanical challenges, the champ definitely wasn't too far behind but Wayton still won the 1v1 pretty handily mostly due to superior positioning.
@@ole3362 nah fr????/?//?//?? he has 4k hours of pure mechanics
@@awsi469how you know that? Is you him?
Thanks Wayton for all your amazing content keep it up
really enjoy your videos Wayton!
“Match your fanciness but do it better” 😭😭
I never knew wayton was actually this good but i'm now subbed. respect lol
He almost lost to a c2 bro.
@@thecrappycoder sorry I didn’t get what u said “ any of us could hold a candle “ explain
Wayton was playing really casual in the 1v1 until the 2 minute mark that's when he decided to try a little harder, also the c2 is a 1s player
Nice video man, keep up there good work-I love ur vids ❤️
Hi Wayton! I like the idea! The thing is that I have the feeling(could be wrong) that there has been a lot of times where u had experience with for example the 1st car control map, or some of the redirect maps. He didn't do them beforehand and you did. I could see that by the progress bar. The rest like the freeplay things are nice and imo a fair comparison! The 1v1 also!
SUGGESTION: Keep this in mind, but could you possibly do a video on how to play defense? For example: tracking the speed of your opponent, how to react, and knowing when to make space for a teammate that has a better shot at defending the net… love your videos Wayton, keep up the good work :D
@Wayton Pilkin
Edit: you could even break this up into a series, on how to challenge air dribbles and passing plays!
Watch the other car and react to that, not the ball. Learning defensive strategies for sports like basketball, hockey, soccer, etc helps but a lot of defense is reaction and timing, timing is huge in rocket league because you're playing soccer with a car and they aren't very agile.
you should try to do this with players that main different game modes. I wanna see the difference between 1s and 2s mains
None of these challanges actually shows the true difference except the 1v1. I am a GC2 and would definitely lose to vspeed in all of these challanges except for the 1v1.
I love the way u edit ur videos
You can see the work behind it
This was a great video. Thank you!
hey wayton. I recommend to not use a freestyler as your test subject and also do a little less air dribble-tests/challenges because that's your strength. It makes it seem like you are a little better, but I think speed would've done better if you did flip resets, more like power shots and flicks :D. sorry if this sounds mean, im just trying to give some constructive criticism
I think you should do this with a brand-new train pack map that neither of you have done for the speed test
love your vids, keep it up
Hey Payton, the vid was super well done and quite helpful for a D3 player like me to watch, but I was thinking that the 2 minute timer for the free play wasn't as informative I guess, than if it was how long you took to get a set limit of pinches, pop ups or cross map dribbles, since it tests consistency the same way, idk if it was just me who thinks like that though 😂 keep it up
Wayton: 'Your pretty good when you just try to put it straight in' 🤔
😳
Heh
Ayo
Umm
Ur vids are informative and entertaining, you get to the point while still not making the vid 3 seconds long. Your vids are great dude keep it up
Your right

@@9262g You forgot the period again!
damn these were some clean mechanics for both of you. I hope to be as good one day :D
I love you videos keep up the Great work
I like how the whole point of this video is to figure out if a player who is better than another player is better than the other player
It's more like how much better, obviously wayton is better lol
@@georgesteffey8375 yeah true
great vid wayton. your tutorials also helped me a lot i went from gold 2 to plat 2
Let me smurf you to d3
Keep Grinding 💪
6:18 i def do this too. saying "bop" in game when i just put it in clean and simple lmao
Now we need this exact video with you and a ssl
I’m a top 99.99% rocket league player
So youre bronze 1
@@jaspuhh. No, that would be bottom 99.99%, he said top.
@@jaspuhh. yeah
@@susnojutsu2525 If you’re in the bottom 99.99% that is the top 0.01%
What
Zspeed must be pretty bad in positioning with mechanics that good to still be in champ 2 lol. Most people in that rank, including myself, are not nearly as consistent at those mechanical shots. Props to him keeping that 1v1 close too.
Can confirm, am champ 2 and cannot do any of those mechanics other than ugly looking aerials and the only redirects that I get are in free play cause teammates usually don’t pass up field
@@samcoy5127 same here lmao , almost hit c3 and honestly i thinks i can t beat the workshop map and the redirect training Pack lmao , even air dribbling from the ground is so diffucult
Exactly. I would say his mechanics are GC2 level (some of them, at least).
I love your history of a certain topic videos for example the old season 3 video
Lets goo wayton!!!
you have literally inspired me to push my skills in this game. I have plateaued super hard in diamond and am now trying to add some new mechanics to my game thanks to your videos. Any chance you could start adding a controller overlay to your videos that shows what buttons you are pressing? I have the worst trouble with trying to barrel roll in the air while also boosting. I don't know how I can hit X and B simultaneously? Do you use the default controller binds?
Well from what i know alot of people including me use the left and right bumper on controller for air rolls.
@@vidisthegamer Interesting... are those custom binds or is it the legacy control scheme or something?
Well i just changed the binds somewhere in settings though i dont remember exactly where. Should be under the controls section or sometin like that. So ye custom binds pretty sure
I do play on ps4 if that changes anything
@@jquikshot they’re custom binds but they’re rather the norm. They’re listed as air roll left/air roll right. Saves you the trouble of holding X and B. Hope that helped!
Typical controller setup is air roll left/right (whichever you're more comfortable with) on the left or right bumper, then regular air roll+handbrake on the other one. This is the most common setup at higher levels but there are a lot people who like different ways of doing things, especially if you're a freestyler. It's all just what's comfortable to you. Air roll/handbrake being on the same button is a game changer for keeping your momentum too
I wish you had let him learn the workshop map since you were familiar with it. That way we would get a way more realistic comparison. This isn't the first time other players in your videos were doing the map you were familiar with for the first time either.
I 100% always offer my guests to do a run through of whatever I already have so that it’s fair. Zspeed decided not to run through it on his own.
@@WaytonPilkin why not just do a map that neither of you have done that still demonstrates mechanical ability. Doesn’t have to be anything popular or well known like the maps we see in your videos. Asking people if they’d like to run through the map on their own a few times before recording isn’t really doing due diligence to the experiment, which is what this video is supposed to be.
Still an entertaining video. I just wish it were a little more accurate in this way is all.
@@guerrierim15 Yeah I agree with you, even if he gave the buddy time to do a run through of the map or training packs it wouldn't compare to the fact that wayton is significantly more familiar with them. The experiment is inaccurate.
@@guerrierim15 I can't know if a pack demonstrates mechanical ability well unless I try it once myself. I tested about 10 different packs before I selected these 3 to be used in the video. I promise you, if I selected 3 packs at random, this experiment would have been horrible.
@@testing-gn8vj Significantly more familiar? I don't know where you're getting this idea. I ran through each of the training packs once just like he did. I'm not more familiar with them at all.
BROO THE BANG
Banger again bro
This whole video is just wayton abusing a champ
Oh hello I didn't expect to see you, what rank are you, I would like to 1v1 you but if you don't that's fine
so cheetahh I think u play rocket league
first challenge wasn't really fair as he'd never done the map before whereas doubtless you had. Other than that, good video
Bro awesome and I did not expect that
The air game was one thing and you won all of them but you didn't test ground control before hand. It's easy to set up a play of the wall when you can spawn the ball in front of your car with bakkes mod but a totaly different thing when you need the perfect touch and time to set up in game. Dribbles, flicks, catches, power shots and most importantly drifting skills make a huge difference in game. As the 1v1 shows, you can put up a serious fight even if you don't have air superiority.
Im gonna be honest.
I think wayton just wanted to show off his training improvement.
Same. This whole video looked like a self stroke.
@@cmdrleo literally what it is. Bro had 9k hours and is gc2 peak 😂
I bet you guys don't know who godsdad is then XD 15I hours in gold
15k*
@@Bweyg i know him from sunless vid.
One thing this video doesn't address is the speed at which these mechanics are necessary the higher the rank you go. You often don't have the luxury of these unchallenged setups in a real game. So, while someone may be able to pull off these challenges/training packs etc and look nice doing so... if you put them in a lobby of higher level players that are making insanely fast reads (relative to what they see at their rank), they will just never touch the ball.
Excellent point.
this guy is insanely good i bet his mistakes is that he always jumps to stupid balls and throws games for his freestyle montages. he could easily be gc / c3
Cool video man, love the original content, any tips for ranking up to GC from C3?
Play the game, there’s no shortcut or ‘one size fits all’ solution. If you put in the hours you’ll get there eventually. If you’re looking for mechanics to work on, then focus on fast aerials, recoveries, ball control, and overall speed.
i put like 2 weeks in freeplay, just grinding the mechs speed and accuracy (couldn’t flip reset/ air roll/ and shit) about four months ago. did it cause i had wifi problems so i couldn’t play. about a month later i come back into the game, i’m cruising : +200 mmr each season on solo q. trust me, do your 2 weeks like a monk.
You should do a vid where a pro goes against an ssl thinking that he’s good enough to go pro. Also you should do like two people coach a low ranked player, a position/game sense player that practices positioning over mechanics, and a mechanical player that is relatively consistent in the air and on ground. Both coach’s are the same rank. It would be cool to see what helps people get better faster
As a mechanical c2 myself I can say that zspeed gives a good picture to everybody else of the difference between champ and gc consistancy
Most definitely but the thing is I think most Champs 1-3 can do what he’s doing, and tbh I was very surprised to see the comments praising to what seems to me very average mechs
What rank is the top 5% player?
I love how wholesome Zspeed is :D
how much you wanna say "here we go"?
Wayton Pilkin: yes
We not going to talk about how easily Wayton could have practiced these packs beforehand? Why wasnt this just done with 2 random people?
He addressed that it was somewhat unfair that he had played the maps before, so it did factor in
4,000 hours? I guess its time for me to start playing more regularly, I'm sitting at 156 and I'm hardstuck at platinum. But I want to make SSL before I graduate highschool, playing in college sounds fun lol.
You definitely don't need 4000 hours bro, you got this
I hit 1.1K hours recently and am at c2/3 w better mechs than this guy, dw bout it and just play alotta free play
@@oukiV
Haha, you have better mechanics than me and I have 1,1k 2 and im like 400mmr higher than you???
@@tariktarik7512 don't worry he is just replying to every comment saying how he is better than the guy in the video
@@tariktarik7512 mechs don't equate to rank dumbass
"Weird flex, but okay!" Lmao all jokes aside great content
Love youre vids so helpfull. even when i will never bee as good as you. Lol
Make the video again with an averagely mechanical Champ 2.
That Champ SUCKS at mechanics and for 4000 hours he is an embarrasment.
Love your content
Very cool vid earns a sub
I appreciate it when players know their weakness. I have a mate who'd GC1/2 (i'm C3/GC1) and he's all mechanical but just doesn't know it, nor will admit to it, it's real struggles. I'm maybe 30/70 (mech/pos)
Nice video bro 👍
all this video did was give me hope lmao. i havent played in a while, mainly cuz my console died and im not allowed to get a new one. but i think im a month of solid practice away from being around zspeeds level. alot further from wayton but still. also i feel i could hold some ground against wayton in 1v1s since my best asset is positioning and defense. gonna follow zspeed now.
Wayton Ur the best at making vids
another banger vid
first time i am actually proud of someone from the viewers
as someone in the 1% that plays in the 5% when playing with friends, there is a pretty huge difference
I’ve never made it past c1 but I also play on Xbox. This made it clear why I spend so much time in d3
My guess would be: a lot
His mechanics are insane !
alternate title "How I a GC Bullied a champ 2 for 15 minutes straight"
this entire video is just a huge flex lol
Some banger music to bop to. Where'd you get it?
"It's not about the flashy plays" while scoring his second air dribble into bump in one game.
We love godo sportsmanship
Wayton needed that confidence booster, down bad smh. Funny video tho!
„THERE WE GO!!“
This was a great video fro me because, this is my second season being C1, going for C2
This guys insane for champ 😮💨
Love ur vids
Don't feel bad about the 1v1, Wayton! I'm c2 and you would have beaten me much, *much* worse.
I'll do what you do but just a bit better
Bro got violated
Don't stop the bop!
Wayton just felt bad about losing to the pro so he wanted to win this time
big brain wayton
Also maybe having more of a control group like 3 to five people to represent a rank
hey, did you see cbells new series of coaching a new player to gc? I think it's a great concept that will fill the missing 'road to gc' series. I wonder if there is some way to collab, I want to see the 'coach to gc' format take off, as road to gc was always one of my favs to watch
LEEETS GOOO
Have I already seen this video ten times now?
the tmnt music playing during zspeeds air dribble flys
where do you get the first map that you guys did,
i rly want to play that one
i do that weird jump zspeed does. its what happens when you jump at a 45 angle at the exact top of the ramp. its similar to fetelix jump but no reset, so its just a single weird fish floppin lookin jump.
I love u And you’re content
The 1v1 was so close because he's got great game sense. Mechanically and consistency wise you are better, but game sense he's not too far behind you
was bigger than i expected
Bro u inspired me to play rocket league love u bro
