I just know it's gonna take a lot to get up there in that level. Which begs the question!
That's a really nice discussion actually. I can talk only about my experience but I hope it helps somehow:
Making a long story short, played 3 years in a row, mainly single player, then I stopped for around 5 years and a half, and in 1 month I got much better at replay making (not saying that I am too good lmao) than I was in 2018, and even better at comp mods like boxshu (wtf I didn't even used to play boxshu, and now I get like, 11 win streak). But the thing is that back then it wasn't really funny for me to play the game, was also depressed. During the last few years I just fixed my mind and somehow remembered this game and I found it funny to replicate some anime scenes by self sparring, and boxshu is fun af, and I can tell you that I only got better and am having fun in the game because my mind got refreshed. Maybe you are just tired so you don't really care to try new styles and spend time studying strategies for competitive mods? In this case I highly recommend that you stop. Give it a break, play other games and come back later when you really feel like it will be worth it. Nothing much different from what some people said here.
