Whatever you choose to do is a great idea, but if it becomes too stressful stop doing it.
Example, i want to get top 10 rank X, but nor do i have the time to play as much nor the mentality to keep playing matches without having moments where even if i play great, the result is out of my control(not trying to blame teammates here)
I got top 500 and maybe will try top 500 on takoroka after ttk.
The point being you can try many things but dont let it drag you down if you are not getting it.
Yes, it is a skill issue i cant get top 10 and i accept it.
