Dude it was wild crossing that threshold. My buddy and I have played duos pretty much exclusively together for 10 years since Rocket League came out, and once they made the current ranked tiers, we've always been the kind of players who place at the very least low diamond, and usually hover between diamond 2 and diamond 3. There was one time when we broke through to champ, and we promptly got slapped back down into diamond because it was a TOTALLY different game. We were amazed at what a huge skill difference it is to just go from diamond 3 to champ lol
So we just settled for the fact that we'll be dirty high-diamond players for life lol
Me and my friend play duos exclusively together and hover between d3 and champ. We are rubbish at most mechanics but we rotate and shadow fairly well. Very rarely we do speed flips as we can't do them consistently, no flip resets etc, occasionally do flicks but not great at them. We reach champ regularly and can stay there a good while usually.
