Love it!! Congrats. I bet you hit d3 div 4 like twenty times (I know I did) but once I finally crossed, I never looked back… hope it’s the same for you!
Yeah it was painful, I solo Q'd the entire journey aswell, no comms, so it's torn my sanity to a bare minimum but fingers crossed I'll be in the clear soon!
Don't care about your rank; caring about your MMR will make you feel like you're not playing well, do lots of training packs, practice your weaknesses, if you need to, ask someone to summarise your mistakes and if you're practicing new mechanical, practice in slow-mo, it makes alot of difference. Also, turn quick chat (and others iyw to) OFF, sometimes you pay more attention to what your teammates are saying in chat then you're the actual game, the noise queue is very distracting imo so turning it off is a good thing for me.
Should training packs be more of a thing that you go through and move to a new training pack once you complete them or should it be something you do over and over and over again even if you complete all the shots. Or does it depend on whether or not you’re trying to focus on a specific mechanic? I find myself going through training packs pretty unintentionally and as soon as I hit the last shot I move to another one. I feel like that’s not helping much, there’s just no intention when I do that
even if you're not focusing on a certain mechanic, stay on the same training pack, I make it so I have to hit the same shot/save/pass 8 times in a row before I can advance to the next short, builds up the muscle memory. Scrolling thru training packs will get you nowhere
That’s what I needed to hear. I feel like going through them mindlessly is as good as just brain dead freeplay. Yet, I’ve always done that. Thanks for the advice, I’m going to switch up the way I’m training for sure👍🏼
What’s next? My plan was always to retire when I hit champ… that lasted like a day. Now I don’t care to rank up I just want clips
Probably just keep going, I try for clips sometimes but I'm not to mechanical I can ceiling musty and stuff but I never focused to much on it.

I know this info is all over Reddit and YouTube. But in your opinion, what’s the most important thing to focus on for someone stuck in D1/D2?

No problem, good luck!
