I'll be updating this thread with my progress as I play on wL and improve. Thanks Bison and Ben for the advice and words of encouragement. I promise I'm not just some disgruntled player who's salty about toxic players. They're in every gaming community ever and wL is no exception. Just gotta deal with them and move on.
As for gameplay, I've been steadily averaging between 8-9 rws per match. Today was a particularly good day. I played above average, but this could just be that I had Netex on my team for a couple of the matches. I got my first 1v5 clutch on these servers today as well! Pretty stoked on that. I think I could have played the 1v1 better but to get the 1v5 ace was a really solid milestone for me. I actually went to check the demo, and the round prior, Ze'yon and f0rw are in spec talking about how nice I am, but how poorly I play in-game. It was a nice feeling to hear and see everyone's reaction after the round in spec and on the opposite team, which may sound a bit narcissistic, but it simply felt good to do something really solid in-game in front of and against players that have called you bad in the recent past.
I can feel my gamesense improving. My prefires are getting more solid as well; it came in handy twice during my 1v5. Still have a long, long, LONG way to go.
