Hi.

I am posting this topic so I can get others to get a better insight about what could be the reasons I do so mediocre in tournaments despite not actually being that bad of a player myself.
Let me clarify- It's true that I mostly use a Low-tier character for tournaments, but I don't think I lose BECAUSE I of that character, I think it's because of how badly I tend to mess up and do overall hideous desicions or my tech skill seems to decrease drastically.

Personal reasons:

In tournaments, I tend to feel really stiff with my character. I seem to have movement issues and just general tech skill issues even though that doesn't happen in normal play. Well, that's what I think, anyway. I don't know how I can mess up so badly in tournaments. : /

Here's some tournament videos for you to see:

This one has to be one of the better examples.

Started up kind of decently, but went on messing up.

Anyway, I would be really thankful if someone (preferably with experience) could look it up and tell me what I'm doing wrong. And remember, I'm not exactly looking for a critique on what to do with my character (MU tips, so to speak), but rather compare my performances between friendlies and tournaments.

Thank you.
