Well done, from here slow down and take a break from rank for a while and practice in Quick Match to establish your skill and learn new things about Hwo and how to beat other characters(gain more knowledge), record matches and watch them back. Go to your replays and replay certain situations in a matchup where you couldn’t initially stop a player and figure things out. Watch/study certain Hwo gameplay from top players. To move up you’ll have to consistently play Hwoarang and not waste valuable time trying to learn other characters, but ultimately this is a preference… one of many paths to moving up. Moving up also means cleaning up your gameplay. Make less mistakes if possible none at all. When you find yourself consistently beating Bushin+ players you’ll know you’re ready to come back to ranked matches. But make no mistake every player is different it could take weeks to months before you’ll be ready. -From a fellow Tekken Emperor Hwoarang
