If you want to get better you have to face the best opponents you can find. They will force you to write your best work, and that's how you get better. You'll probably take a lot of losses for a while but in reality beyond a cursory glance no one gives a fuck, they rate you based on performance. And if it bothers you that much get really good then ghost and come back as a multi account.

If you're winning loads of battles in a row and your name isn't UA you're stagnant as fuck. Go catch some losses...


Wisdom dropped. 1.

yep. Forever I was just dropping swaths of average audio opens thinking I was heavyweight as fuck, an somewhere along the ride it just clicked that nobody else is going to join in on that opinion until I began beating others who already hold that status. Seems painfully obvious now, it's just funny how you can convince yourself of things.

I might lose these flames once the GC ends (hell maybe even before that) but I'll sure as fuck be facing some awesome people on the way.
