Not all battles take place in an urban environment, as General Anemone trains Coral, Clam, Kelp, and Ocean on how to fight battles in the wild. Though, Coral wishes the training was done in the morning and not in the afternoon when the sun was brighter.
Matchmaking: Putting me up against players with X-rank badges in A rank
Also Matchmaking: Putting me up against a carbon that does nothing but roll around the map, mostly in spawn.

It sometimes feels like my climb through A has nothing to do with my actual skill and everything to do with the hand matchmaking deals me, hah.

But I think what prompts this is that lately my awareness has been improving, and whereas before I felt like I could barely tell what was going on at any given moment, I feel like I have a better grasp on what is going on now and can tell when I've just been put up against people who vastly out-skill me or just have teammates that are as confused and lost as I was not even half a rank ago.

So I'm going to consider it a positive thing that my awareness has developed enough for me to actually understand when I've been dealt a bad hand and be annoyed by it, hah.

Anyway, I don't need to annoyed by this anyway because we've already established that Everything's Made Up and The Points Don't Matter (but it's honestly remarkable how difficult it is to peel my brain off of a Numbers Fixation)

No yea A and B rank are essentially a purgatory full of mostly people who probably got carried by their siblings. It sounds harsh, but with not everyone caring to improve, it takes a lot longer to get out of A rank than it does S rank most of the time. Even in S/S+, matchmaking is almost worse bc u get worse comps but decent players vs the other way around.
I am annoying myself by taking off my sweatshirt and then a few seconds later I put it back on and then take it off

yah, I am out in a field with my dad right know so that's the reason why I kept on doing that
You know what would be great, if teammates could actually take advantage of the situation in which I distracted the entire opposing team to actually splat the opposing team from the back.
