Let me start with a list of things I'm good at. I was 2x diamond in LoL, top 10 smite joust 1v1 on leaderboards, I've done tournaments of black ops 1 2v2. I've done various martial arts and tournaments for over a decade. My friend won a world sanshou tournament in france and we spar regularly, I win mostly. I also did a few mma tournaments.
The point is, I'm good at anything I put time and effort in. But I cannot for the life of me do good in fighting games. I did 280 trials in kof13. All ssf4 trials except abel 24 atm. So combo's and execution isn't an issue. It's just when I lose, I never know what I could of done different, AT ALL. I played about 1000 games of usf4, and I have a 30% win rate. I played GGxrD and I had 30% aswell, but in this game it didn't bother me because I was actually improving but the online lag made me stop the game. Since I heard blazblue had good netcode, which I realise it does because I can play with 1 bar players sometimes.The only fighter I was ever good at was mkx with a 85% win rate, god knows why.
I can do or learn combo's without a problem, but guess what. I have 1 win online out of 60 matches. And that win was someone who let me win. The players in this game are very nice and really try to encourage eachother I've noticed.
--But If all I do is lose how in the world do you stay motivated, thats my question.
