It’s key to remember that you may not always actually go from ‘playing like mL7 to playing like a Gold’. Every encounter is different, even when facing the same people over and over again (considering you sit in Diamond/Masters, I assume your pool of players occasionally repeats itself, I myself am struggling to actually get out of Gold on RQ but am almost back to Diamond on OQ on Xbox).

If you find yourself playing lackluster to what’s expected, it’s best to review the footage and see where you went wrong and what happened at that exact moment where everything fell a part. You may just find it’s less ‘I messed up and played poorly’ and more ‘the enemy took advantage of (x) moment and caught me off guard.’ (In other words, you may have just been outplayed and found yourself making more mistakes trying to avoid being outplayed again.)

Regardless, the best thing you can do is to just practice every day, even if it’s just jumping into QP for a few games.

That would fit into almost every rank.

I’ve got the exact same inconsistency problem. The only thing I can add is the usual well-being talk.

Remember to drink a lot, make sure you’re not hungry, take toilet breaks, have a healthy posture while sitting, don’t play when you’re tired and most importantly, only play when you’re in the mood for it.
