Hello whomever sees this I would appreciate some advice
I was an avid smash 4 player and I thoroughly enjoyed the game I mained Charizard just as I had done in brawl (that’s right I mained just Charizard not the other two when they were avaliable) and played D3 among many other characters and did rather solidly placing in the lower half at locals but I was content but later in the games lifespan I began to do worse and worse causing me much frustration which,at first, was put forth as just internalized anger resulting from stress in other parts of life causing self harm and many broken controllers but as things around me changed I began to replace that anger with just sadness (I know this is long and dumb but bare with me I’m getting to the point) I was so excited for ultimate and I played the game whenever I wasn’t in college or working but I seem to do worse by the day and the constant losses only further pronounce my frustration and depression especially being torn between my past love for the game and the memories of playing with my father,who passed recently, and my cheating ex and old friends who used me and treated horribly.
Main point being should I continue practicing or is it a waste of time? I love the series so much and it has brought me such joy but as I began to see less enjoyment from many things in my life I don’t want my love for the game to go also..I enjoy it more when I play with people around me but all the people I usually played with are now gone in some shape or form...doing better at the game would help but that doesn’t seen reachable when my win rate is around 35% at an all time high does anyone have any advice on this or is that asking a bit much?
