Oh man, that Level 3 Conq Bot yesterday... Parried all freaking Lights and Zones from my PK, then spammed me to death with his SB mixups. It was insane. Bots also don't fall for feints at all, they "know" the inputs, soooo you are fcked. ^^

There is literally no other way to win against some Level 3 Bots other than turtling hard until you get a parry.

Lvl 3 Aramausha - 1 in 10 if I'm very lucky... unbelievable blocking/parrying and dodging

Lets say: If you can deal with lvl2 bots, it's time to jump into pvp. The average player isn't better than that.

HA y’all are out of your mind if you think the matchmaking system is fair, for me I dropped the game a few months after it came out because of all the broken BS that was wrong with it. I picked it back up after the first campaign of season 7 so it is still going off of my skill level from back when the game dropped! So I’m stuck against veteran players and total meta Trash, and I’m just a casual player!

I'll speak to this. I started the game on console. Got to rep 100+ overall, then saw the free sale on Steam and picked up PC. When I dropped as a "true" level 0, I was matched up with those who appeared to have picked up the game for the first time ever. From time to time, I came across those who obviously knew the basic mechanics and were either cheating the system or simply platform switching (admittedly what I was doing at the time, just to see the difference framerate offered).

All that being said, the majority of the matches I faced were with true noobs.

just dont rage quit when you lost 5 duels in a row, it happens all the time, this is where people play and quit, or continue to become long term players

That's true.

I have played many hours against level 3 bots and they were much stronger than most Rep 30+ players.

Make custom games and train against bots. If you beat yourself against lvl 2 bots and still make 3 bots too heavy, you're on the right way.
