Players who hit Veteran or higher consistently, what skills do I lack?

I reached Veteran for the first time. I feel like I've improved a lot but it's hard to stay in this range. I see some players can reach this level or higher fairly easily. How do I get there? Surely it's not just about what team they're using, there must be some skills or knowledge that can get you there with plenty of different teams.

What I feel like I already know is counting turns and remembering the energy banked on all mons. Also knowing the top meta's moveset and pacing.

I've seen a lot of Aegislash lately on the preview cup and I cannot seem to be able to counter it. I've read that you're supposed to farm energy and not throw when it's on shield form. But then they throw a charged move that you're obligated to shield because it hits harder than a hydro cannon, and most times a second one is coming right after, which they of course will win the cmp tie. So am I supposed to use both shields every time? What if I had already used one or both? Am I cooked then?
