I've been aware of it for about 6 months now. Slowly my skill has been declining. I was at my absolute best when I did the Minja marathon. But it's not just with the Minja. My skill with all suits has been declining.

Have you also noticed that you've started getting worse? How long were you playing the game for before you stopped improving and started getting worse? For me, it was about 1 year.

4. I had so much more to type but then a bunch of people at work started to approach me with problems that I have helped them solve a dozen times before and as a result of them frustrating me I have lost my train of thought.

its because the current fotms arent as good as some fotms before. You cant solo forge like before because bandwith, you cant swarm launcher like be4 from roof because range. You can't kill as many mlt scrubbers because apex and more squads in more matches. Overall awareness went down hard with all the scanning nerfs, and scouts have cloaks, instakill any suit proto knives with 2.5m range and a almost 180-¦ hit box arc, and bons uber shotguns.
And perhaps most of all, jump mods mean virtually every assault is no longer stacking regular armor plates, thus all of them blueshield super hard, especially if you use a RR(if ya dont got officer,calass, or calmando put the garbage rr away).

Combine that with commandos, nade spam, assault hmgs, officer spam, todays horrible map pool, and you get that people who havent adapted to the new fotms that they like, will always do worse. You could also be soloing now compared to squading before, your sensitivity settings couldve been reset or just be high where they shouldve always been low.

joined during uprising 1.5. Got stomped for a few games, so i quit. Came back 6 months later to find i had 16 mil SP unallocated and me being a noob i had no idea what SP was good for, so i dumped it all into assault rifles and something else that i can't remember even though at the time the combat rifle was FoTM next to Scr. i had about 4 mil left so i skilled into shields because i thought that would increase my shield stat....i had so much to learn. Watched a few online videos, got the hang of making a drop suit but i had no idea how to change the modules on them so i spent a solid week running around with a cal medium frame and a duvolle tac AR getting rekt. Finally figured out how to put modules on, so i stacked shields and basic ferro plates.

Then it hit me, SP is used for unlocking suits! So i had about 400k SP at the time and wanted to unlock the cal medium frame ck.0 as i thought it would be beast. Ran around with a medium frame ck.0 & duvolle tac AR trying to go positive... remember saying "Just get a kill and die, thats it." every match. After that came my dreaded weeks as a stealth min logi (i had it to ADV). I watched moody's videos and saw knives and thought "Damn, thats awesome!" I unlock the basic cloak, put it on a min logi with a shitload of PG/CPU upgrades in the lows and militia code breakers in the highs to replicate the min scout, with just knives in my weapon slot. I sucked.
Still to this day i have no idea how i played with that suit and didn't rage quit. It must have been a miracle.

Then came the million clone event. Got 4 mil SP for that (or was it 3?) and unlocked the pro to cal scout (HUZA!). Little did i know this thing was a slaying machine at the time, and i had about 23 mil SP so my cores were fairly maxed. I stuck a duvolle AR and knives on this suit and rekt kids (or what i thought). In PC the suit was inefficient though as the amount of gal scout shotgunners was insane. I was in GAM and Her Nibs advised me to fit dampeners and a shotgun on my suit because i was sick of being scanned 24/7. I only had advanced dampeners on so i stacked 2 of them on but REFUSEd to go anywhere near a shotgun; i just hated them. I thought they were no-skill weapons that were to easy to use. My first time i got 'SCAN ATTEMPT PREVENTED' i felt so beast. I was a happy chap even though i was below-average.

So after my adventures in CGAM PC'ing with that suit i came across Molon Labe on the rings map. Thye had fielded some FA and had us 3-capped the entire time (i still remember this). I thought 'Wow these guys know their sh*t" even though there were much better teams out there. So i left GAM after grinding a 1KD and sent an app into Molon Labe not thinking i would get accepted, but i did! For a solid month and a half i just smashed out PC with them, gaining basic skills and what not. It was hard but fun. I had mac damps so i stayed under the radar the entire time, just knifing in a cal scout. I said it was the only protosuit i had at the time because i didn't want to logi lol. I was an average player at this time.

BOOM 1.8 hit, respecs came. I had about 33 mil SP and had left Molon Labe for a corp called Rogue Instincts. Small corp but they were tight-knit and fun to play with. No PC but i didn't care i had all the ISK i needed (or so i thought). I got my respect and straight up skilled into min scout and assault. Most fun i have ever had in those suits. My knifing scores increased dramatically and i was getting 30 kill games every day in this suit. Now i was happy and didn't want to grind out any more suits, so i just stayed with min scout/assault. Played with that suit, got insane SP because the weekly increased from 166k to 750k, got another proto suit, my beloved cal scout again. Shredded with that thing until 1.9 when E-war was nerfed...i was a cloak scrub and had a hard time then. I was above-average by now.

Warlords dropped, i had been playing 8+hours daily because i had nothing else to do, i was getting 'gud'. I was about 'just kill 10 people and die once' life as a KD ***** due to my low wallet but i didn't get anywhere with that mentality. Stopped running pro to and giving fiu(ks about my KD and ran ADV gear. Now i was really shredding. Continued through warlords 1.1-1.2, got to 65 mil SP and 5 respecs, i knew what i could run with. I had found a logi Raven-747 who knew how over-aggressive i played yet how i would stay alive. Most logi's didn't follow me and left me to die if i ran into the enemy team but raven stayed with me and i knew i would survive if he repped me. Many points were held by a viziam on an a k.0 with a min logi attached. Thats teamwork. I was dropping 30 kill games every game/2. 25 was meh. 40 kill games came every day. I was damn good.

Then came my best game ever with an 0.H guy DK that i used to play with after leaving 0.H. After that i was literally sick of pubs and ran a min scout, no cloak with just knives and 3 kincats to challenge my self. It was hard but enjoyable knowing every kill was hard earned and not on some FoTM assault suit. By now i was just aiming for 100k lifetime kills and didn't give a fu*k about hard mode this. Ran with raven slaying and holding points once more, then I met Lightning delta, was fun to squad with. We'd drop 40 bombs. He encouraged me to do better. Then, times changed, something happened and i had to leave dust.
