plat 3 here, just practice things you suck at. use the training mode, dont focus on rushing to the ball to get the first hit in every situation:practice awareness, ask yourself: will my teammate or the other team get to this first, or will it be a 50/50? focus on controlled hits and practice settling the ball and dribbling it, get in rotation

I was grinding training earlier today, I went 5-7/10 on the pro striker. For some reason im just trash at this game.

if youre having fun playing it dont focus too much on your rank, just try to get better at different techniques like i said. this is the kind of game you cant get better at with skill alone youve just gotta play a lot, ive logged thousands of hours and should easily be in a high diamond league but i get held back by shitty teammates

I have fun but I feel like im holding my buddy back. He is in plat when he plays with randoms but when I want to play I drop him down to gold. He can easily shit on 2 silvers on his own but once we go against golds it's more of a crapshoot.

Maybe you need to do drills in practice mode, to consistently land certain aerials or whatever.

its natural that youll be holding him back, im sure he's logged much more hours. as long as he isnt angry as shit its still productive you'll get better playing with him if hes a good player. you WILL get much better at this game just gotta log more than 200 hrs

It feels like a hell of a climb. I feel like once I got the controls down my skill hasn't changed from hour 10 to hour 200

I'm normally plat 1-2.

I have no friends who play the game, and pubs around gold 3/ plat 1 are always retarded and don't know how to rotate.
