135 [RNDM] Florendo19 Members 371 posts 7,377 battles Report post #1 Posted June 29 I took a break recently and when I came back I suddenly feel like a low 40% WR player. Now the only major in game change between when I stopped and now is the CA line split for the Russians so I know its not the game and that its really just me. Who knew the difference a month makes? Anyway just my observation on how dedicated this community is to make me feel dull after only a month away. Anyway back to getting back up to speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure that things like aiming could be a bit off after a month (I usually aim by "feel"), but it's also possible that you just had a streak of losses. Everybody has those (me too). Good luck and hope you'll get back to winning again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

318 [TIMT] shinytrashcan Members 639 posts 3,404 battles Report post #7 Posted June 29 Had a similar issue after not playing for two months while traveling. I was just no longer used to doing all the things at the same time (it took me actual effort again to just steer my ship correctly, aiming was way off), so I played badly for about a week. It comes back though with a bit of practice, don't worry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2,534 [SYN] Kapitan_Wuff Members 8,236 posts 13,957 battles Report post #8 Posted June 29 I got to my peak performance by playing this game a lot, when I stopped playing for a while well I played worse. It's just the nature of the beast. Changes in the game and meta only amplify the issue of being out of practice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My suggestion is to drop down to the middle tiers, 5 - 7 and work it off there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
