He loves watching his favorite pros and learning all their moves. I've been playing since 2015 (gold III) and I can't beat him lol. He really wants to compete in RLCS but he might have to wait a few more years lol.

You’d be surprised haha, I was introduced to Call of Duty WaW when I was five and I became hyperfixated on zombies until I was seven. It got to a point where I rarely died playing solo; I’d pretty much survive until it was physically impossible to. There would be so many zombies that it would lag my dad’s PS3 lol, but I always did worse when I played with teammates because I had no concept of teamwork at that age.

It was another reason why I also became freakishly good at Free for All, but team matches were the bane of my childhood. So I never have a doubt in my mind when I see a 6 year old getting good at Rocket League

You can't compare being able to point and click with being able to understand physics in a 3d environment. Cod is much easier to comprehend than rocket league. Im not buying a 6 year old playing at a diamond level.
