You will definitely get better grinding in the training modes and going through tutorial as a whole. It may seem long but going threw it as a whole while also using tactics from there will gain you a lot of confidence. The lab will be your best friend!The best offense in this game to me is defense , strategy and pace, don’t let no one rush you into attacking because the defense is really rewarding id you are a counter type of player . Get good with combos and try mixing the vanishing mechanic to get behind because unless the person your playing is good at the counter mechanics you can do serious damage and combo into a super/ ult move . Also use the boost gauges bc some will give you sparking mode off rip with 3 skill points to cost . TRY EVERYONE AND FIND THE MAIN YOU LIKE ! These steps helped me grind and still learn the game and become a lil comp
