I hate the feeling of becoming trash at something you were once good at. My goal in ubg was to get good enough to one day reach unified champ. I’ve been going into ranked unable to know which style im best with so I keep switching around between my mains. and all that’s been happening is me losing a lot more than winning and I just got deranked to d3 somewhere around 21400 rt. I’ve been losing way more to d2s and d3s than I should have. the feeling of becoming trash at a game you were once good at, it’s feels so much more depressing than almost any other pain one can experience in this game (imo)

last time I first ever reached c1, it was June of 2025. After I reached it, I “retired” from ranked mode but there was still a feeling of self improvement I wanted to reach. I was using wolf and won a lot with it during the time. Wolf was a really good style back then. been nerfed to the ground since and I haven’t used it (competitively) in awhile. recently I’ve been switching between supernova, ghost, counter, and dragonfish but I haven’t made up my mind on what I want to use. Switching either of these styles didn’t really me out much either and idk if it’s between my indecision or my skill loss. i still can kinda read opponents and make predictions on their next move, and react to m1s and m2s, but lately i feel like im so much more slower to doing so and I don’t know why. I still play the game often (not in ranked) to try and keep my skill level but it feels like im almost getting worse rather than better.

does anyone have any tips for how i can get back to c1, and maybe even get up to c2 one day? I hate how depressing it feels for me to be in a losing streak and get deranked from what i once had before.
