Now I Suck!

[lax guy5]

I played Brawl against 3 other extremely easy people, (as in they had no idea how to play) then played on a team with my friend who's pretty good, against his brother who really isn't. Both those things happened on the same day. But now, when I play Brawl I abousletly, positively suck! Any help for me getting my touch back?

Maybe you should play more

EDIT: not really for tactical discussion

If you just started playing Brawl, take some time to adjust to it. You're probably still in 'Melee mode'. Its hard to alternate between the 2 games, honestly. Your timing in Melee gets all screwed up. Also, don't be surprised if noobs get good fast. There isn't as much to learn in Brawl,but it still takes a good degree of strategy/skill.

Play good people on Wifi and learn. And just practice more. Just improve your technique and don't spam/rolldodge excessively.

Put Brawl down, come back to it tommorow.

It'll come back.

I haven't played Melee for a couple years so that isn't it.

QFT.
Breaks do wonders.

^ Not with me. If i stop playing for a week I start losing skill, but i guess a small break wouldn't hurt...

Tactical discussion is not your blog. Mods lock topic please?

Same here, but after taking a short break, it did let me spike with Link's Dtilt more often o_0

lax guy5's Skill has decreased by 7 points, due to brawling with unskillful players. In order to increase your Skill, you'll have to brawl with others who are at the same league as you and attempt to get better, or brawl with those who are better than you.

this happened to me, too. at college, I've got people to play against that are considerably better than me, so by the end of last year, I was good. But, all summer I had no one good to play, and now that I'm back at school, I can't beat anyone. :/

it seems (at least to me) like Brawl is a game you can't take a break from without losing some skill, but I guess that's how a lot of competitive games are

A day break is ok, but not a week. NEVER A WEEK!

I haven't played in like 2 weeks. XD
I hope I'm not worse. >.>

Keep playing. You'll get better... just don't give up, is all.

 

[Rapid_Assassin]

Suck less.

Seriously, find someone good to play against, and you'll get it back. Your friends who you used to beat could have possibly gotten better too.

Indeed, thats the best method right there.
