What's the most useless skill you've mastered, and how did you end up getting so good at it? (lemmy.world)

As an 800 hour player that has to put the game down because of competitiveness making me a curmudgeon -- Wow, gotta say. That's so much work.

Did you use the practice modes to get to be that level or did it just come to you during play?

Tons of freeplay
Tons of mods/workshop map
Ive had some coaching
And I also play in an amateur league

As long as you always play to improve, watch videos to keep up on mechanics/metas, and just immerse yourself in the game, you'll always climb up. If you play at least 2 hours a day, you'll be insane before you know it.

But in the spirit of this post, you could spend your time doing something so much more productive than a video game lol

Played 932h (around 900h actual playtime) and almost exclusively played ranked or rumble/dropshot but never casual.
Best rank was Diamond 2 or 1 not sure anymore.
Played it only on keyboard. No controller ever used. Gave it up as a sort of protest against the buyout and never went back.
