Something many PvPers need to improve.
To preface this I am not some amazing R1 multi glad xp pvp master. However something I have consistently seen in this sub is people playing below duelist CR blaming so many other factors for why they aren’t winning more games or higher CR.
The unpopular reality is that most of us aren’t anywhere near as good as we think we are. You more than likely aren’t sitting at 1600cr because of all the OP [ *insert classes here* ], or bad teammates in solo q, etc…
If you want to improve in any competitive game you need to look at yourself first and foremost. Sure, sometimes you get globaled by something ridiculous like Fire Mage + WW. Usually though, one’s losses are because they didn’t play well enough. Go back, watch your games and watch the what happens, see what you could have done differently.
Idk how well this applies to blitz, but for arena and shuffle I think this is massively important. Warcraft Recorder is a pretty solid mod for this but I’m sure you could also use shadow play or something.
TLDR: Before you make your next rage post because you got ray of frosted to death, globaled by a monk, or your dps were running around like spazzes. Watch your game back, you’ll see plenty of moments you more than likely could have prevented the loss from happening the way he did.
