I'd say I'm a fairly casual player when it comes to S4 League.
I don't really care about the circumstances of a game when it comes to a bad team or AP, either,
but for a while I've been hitting a wall where my skill's stopped because I'm not learning anything new.
So if anyone wants to help me get better, please do~ :D

Info:
My situational awareness is okay. I know about DI, bunny hop, wave dash (the latter of those terms),
jumps in different TD maps, etc etc.
Aim is fine. It isn't amazing, but slightly better than mediocre.
I'm typically a striker and my set is PS-SMGs-Rev with +30 HP.
All in-game help appreciated? :)

What you need to do is use new weapons imo. If your aim is fine and your awareness is fine, then shouldn't you let yourself grow further?

I think you should try to ambush people more often,since you use the rev,if your aim is good as you say,you will be a beast in close range.

Bleh I agree with Defiance. I felt the same way still I started testing out different weapons. Don't stick to the same set every game because then your game play becomes stagnant. Each map, weapon, and skill deserves a different style/mode of play for them to work right. If you can actually get somewhat good at those weapons (or better yet all weapons) then you may find your original set even easier to use. Situational awareness is a good skill to have, and sense you already seem to be good at it, I won't give you tips on how to improve it. Aim is a skill that grows with time, as you play you'll find yourself subconsciously correcting small faults to your aiming style, so there's no tips I can give there either. Also play different roles in the game. I find it amazing how some people can join the game (Most likely after seeing some rush pro's gameplay montage) and completely disregard defense and then rage when the other team scores and blame it on their other team. The most insulting thing is when people who claim to be rush pro's aid to the notion that defense or offensive support isn't necessary by calling their team mates noobs or by saying that there's no need for defense.

So my last tip is to try a different role in the game. You say you mainly play a striker, so try defending or supporting offense, or center guarding (etc etc.) There's quite frankly multiple roles you can play that would help your skill level rise and would overall make you a better player by allowing you to get experience in those different fields. That way when you find yourself in a team of all rushers or all defenders (god forbid) you can still be a massive help to your team by switching out your current role for something else.
