Smashboards

It's like you're fighting players that have a really easy playstyle that "pressures" by doing as little as possible, but you have to be consistently precise to do your normal playstyle in a game that demands being fast and precise, you just can't add sloppy and irresponsive controls into that mix.

So I can't even feel satisfied having had lost and say "i played well", because I really didn't. Felt more like I was losing to external circumstance than actually getting outplayed or outskilled, it always leaves me what empty feeling.

Like why does no one address or talk about this, it's a genuine concern. How can you say a scene is perfectly "competitive" when it feels like really good and technical players are being nerfed to oblivion by your hardware, whereas really basic players are taking the cake simply because their baby playstyles are doing all the work.

I don't even care to discriminate how anyone plays. They can play however they want, it's just that it's annoying to feel 90% of my losses is because I feel super nerfed rather than ACTUALLY GETTING OUTPLAYED- hell, I don't even mind losing, if that's the case.

oh no but I lost because I'm aggressive and "play for the clip" and because I don't play matchups in a textbook generic way.
