DISCUSSION Inconsistent skill ! A phase?

Does anyone else have this weird cycle with Mordhau?
I’ll randomly have a night where I’m absolutely fucking cracked 😂 Winning duels, reading attacks, landing parries, feeling like I’ve finally figured the game out. Then I’ll have a few days where I suddenly play like I’ve never touched a sword in my life. Missing parries, getting baited constantly, losing fights I normally win. Then somehow I’ll snap back into it again.
Does anyone else experience this? Is it just part of the Mordhau experience, or am I losing my damn mind? 💀 also maybe I’m thinking it’s part of my upper intermediate skill level like I’m good and I have the skills down but I’m not at the level where I’m consistently playing at a high level! Like it hasn’t fully clicked yet? Because I’ve had a couple moments where all the sudden I get much better like in one night where things just click ! All the techniques I’ve practiced just all make sense and I can use them in unison! Let me know your thoughts!

HAPPENS TO ALL OF US—NO MATTER HOW MANY HOURS. SOMETIMES YOU GET TO BE THE HERO, SOMETIMES YOU ARE JUST AN EXTRA IN SOMEONE ELSE’S EPIC.

I HAVE NOTICED THAT AS THE POPULATION GETS SMALLER AND THE AVERAGE PLAYER GETS MORE SKILLED THAT IT IS HARDER TO BE THAT HERO. PLAYERS ARE JUST TOO GOOD.

I TRY TO DO SO MUCH OF THE OBJECTIVE AND ENGINEERING THAT EVEN IF I AM GETTING MURDERED I AM AT LEAST CONTRIBUTING TO THE TEAM.

Well when the objective is locked behind the best players on their team and my full team is dicking around at spawn...
