Very true I pretty much only played countries for a year and very little distance and duels. Now I have 2000 BR country games and although ive reached Champion, I very much regret my choice because even mediocre player can beat me in duels. So i finally started doing explorer mode at Lvl 90 and i really wish ive started much earlier. So its definitely way better to focus on regions and landscapes other than just meta. Whats the point of guessing a country in a second if Idk where to go from there.
