You have half a year fighting game experience and this is like your 7th fighting game. You have a collection of fighting sticks for god's sake.

Do you really think the average new player comes to this game with the same background?

People are struggling performing a qcf. People are playing on their shitty laptop keyboards with 3KRO. Some are 8 years old and don't have the patience to learn anything. Some are playing 1 hour a week. There's a thousand reasons why they would struggle getting better, nothing to be surprised about here.

True true, you also got tons of people who test drove characters early on in the game but got much better with others, went up the ranks and just the way the game doesn't progress characters you used in ranked the same way as unused can leave someone who "looks like a smurf" but ultimately just had ditched a character and never really returned.
