Hey y'all,
Been lurking for a while since I started playing PM and I have recently started to get some tourny experience. I've done alright at a couple weekly's but recently went to a bigger tournament and got rocked. I admit it definitely had to do with the level of players I was up against, but I don't think I helped myself out much.
I was feeling pressure from myself to get a hit when I was down. Zelda's punishes can net quite a bit of percent so I found myself going fishing quite often and generally ended up getting stuffed. Once they had me backed up I found myself constantly under pressure. What do you guys do to reset the pace? It took a lucky hit for me to get my opponent off me. I notice when I am better than the other player it's easier because they are forced to respect my space. But when the opponent is always on top of me, I was struggling to say the least.
Hopefully this isn't a repeat of something out there. I did a quick look before posting. Thanks in advance for your advice.
