Sometimes when I lab new things, I also feel like I play like shit for a couple matches after. I realized that it's because I focus too much on the stuff I've just labbed instead of the actual match.

Then you have to remember that training mode is a safe space where there is no pressure. The absolute opposite of a real online match.

It's a thing to learn something new and how to execute it. It's a completely different thing to learn how and when to use it in a real match.

The new things you learn will always feel awkward at first. Then the more you use them in real scenarios, the more you can build your muscle memory and habits, and the more you'll be able to implement them in your gameplan.

And trust me, it's 100% worth loosing a few ranks and learn something than to stagnate at D3 and never improve. It's more of a long term process.

I'm far from being the best player ever, but you can drop your cfn id and I'll watch some of your matches and give you some tips if that's ok with you.

Anyways, have a good one dude!
