  • In this Rocket League tutorial, I teach you how to score open nets to the best of your ability. Of course, in Rocket League, there's no way to confirm you would score every single time because mechanical mistakes are always possible. However, being in the right mindset gives you the best chance at scoring.

    2:20 Why Open Nets Are Hard
    5:14 The Right Mindset
    7:45 Recap
    The main reason open nets in Rocket League are so difficult is because you can't gain anything out of them. There's no way to go above and beyond. You can't look like a good player no matter what you do. You either look like an average player if you score it, or a horrible player that doesn't deserve their rank if you miss. This causes you to overthink the shot and try to not miss it instead of aiming specifically to score it. However there is a particular mindset that helps you avoid this bad thinking and score open nets even when they may be difficult mechanically. This video discusses why open nets are difficult by comparison to normal shots with defenders and how to make them as easy as possible so they only rely on your mechanical skill instead of mental skill.

    Good advice. I've found that playing 1s actually made me a lot better at open nets. In 2s and 3s, it's difficult to know when you are going to get an open net, so the surprise causes a "surge." Playing 1s desensitizes you to this by providing them more frequently and predictably - if you play in a party you can just start off with a Bo3 or tournament as part of your warm-up.

    "Aim small, miss small" rule is totally true.
    When I played football (that sport where you hit ball with foot) I was often joking, my shots were inaccurate because goalkeeper is bad.
    But what is often the case, when goal is empty I just aim "in goal", but when goalie is really good, shots have to be really precise and strong, so im aiming e.g. "top left".
    By far the easiest targert to aim for is someone's head, it's small but really easy to focus on xD.

    6:44 It might have been in the scope of this video to also mention here: if you are to the side of the goal (as seen here 3:52), try to make it a habit to aim closer to your car, so that if you hit it wide to the right at 3:52, it might go in or bounce in off the post, and if you hit it wide to the left, the ball will be centered for your teammate to clean up.

    @BenjaminHari Před 3 lety

    Overthinking is the biggest "shackle chain" on your skill. I'm kinda new to the RL but I have 5k in another game and same rules apply there, as soon you start getting nervous and overthink your move and shots you start getting a lot worse. Best thing is to be calm, "just do" the things you have to without thinking at all, let your muscle memory take over your hands. It's also quite the challenge to teach yourself to be in this mindset all the time because toxicity and unlucky shots can easily tilt our calm mindset to chaos and from there it's just snowball effect to the point you get real frustrated and just quit the game.
    Thanks for a nice reminder. :))

    This is 100% in line with the inner game of tennis. The book describes your mind as two part. There's your inner self which is this super computer capable of insane and instantaneous calculations and then there's your active brain which is what your hear when you think. Basically the entire book is about learning to trust that super computer and not let your active brain mess with it. When you go for an open goal that pressure often makes your active brain override and that's why you miss. You are literally fighting yourself and not letting the more capable part of your brain do the work. You just have to guide what you want it to do and then trust that it will perform. It's cool to see that you came to a very similar conclusion here

    I'm so glad to see someone in a higher rank have problems with this as well. I am Diamond II and I run into this all the time and everytime I miss an open net, I feel like a complete failure. Lol. Thank you so much for making this video. Makes me feel better.

    Great advice, I played college golf and my coach would always say, “The mind set for a tough drive is not ‘avoid this *insert obstacle*’ but rather ‘hit the ball to this spot.’” Once you have the skill, it’s all in the mental sometimes.

    The psychological factor plays a huge role in your performance. I noticed that the more important the match is, the worse I perform due to pressure. When I started aiming for "mainly" improving instead of winning, my performance in important matches became way more consistent and the pressure was way less.

    As a semi professional golf player (hcp 2) I can tell you that " Aim small, miss small" Is an ABSOLUTE TRUTH. It's a MUST for every good golf player. It's the truth!!

    Very helpful video! Could you make a video though on how to always stay calm and focused instead of getting triggered and mad when you play bad in for example 1v1? That would help a lot of players!
