Hello. Fairly straight forward problem I am encountering: I’m too nervous to use agent abilities. Specifically, earlier today I was playing Yoru and used almost no abilities the entire game. I think I used 1 or 2, but for the majority of rounds I used nothing. This is obviously holding me back and causing to me loose some rounds/games. I am currently in bronze rank.
Here is kind of my current (flawed) thought process when deciding to use an ability:
…Is it the perfect moment to use it?
…Should I let the round play out a little more before using it?
…Is it definitely going to hit an enemy?
…Will I be wasting this ability (mostly the credit value) if I use it now?
…Would it be better if I just faced the enemy and not waste time with using the ability?
Now, obviously, even I can realize that these criteria are too extreme and result in me just resorting to not using abilities. So my question is, how can I get used to and not nervous about using my abilities? A couple games later I tried to tell myself to use them more, but I still didn’t.
