"Parting is such sweet sorrow...."
Post Body

A smart man knows when to call it quits, even if he feels crappy about it. Well, for me it has come time to call it quits at the game mode Blackout. I have enjoyed the mode, for the most part, but it has shown me how inept I am at the BR style of game. I have always been a MP gamer and I have always done very well at every COD game that come along. Consistently I have always been at or near the the top of the leaderboards at the end of matches, and 20 kills a game is around where I fall most of the time. Then I found Blackout, and almost instantly I fell in love with the mode. I assumed that my skills would transfer over well and that I would soon be winning left and right. I was wrong! I was so bad in the beginning. It took me 1200 games (all solo) to get my first win, and after 7000 games I have around 185 solo wins. My win % is a pathetic 2%! Not only have I struggled to get wins, but my k/d still hasnt reached 2.0 a game. I have watched youtubers and tried to learn what I could, but still no improvement. When I have tried to play quads (maybe 30 games total) I have struggled to get a kill a game. For someone that has always played really well at COD this has been frustrating. Then, I came to a realization last night. I played 4 or 5 games of quads with a group of guys I met online and while they were kicking ass I was again struggling to keep up and to get a kill. Then someone suggested we play MP for a while and I'm sure they thought I was gonna suck. Wrong! Like always, I killed it. I was at the top every game and they werent even close in kill count or damage. The guys who were running circles around me at Blackout couldnt keep up at MP. I knew right then that some people just dont have it in them to be dominant at Blackout. After all of this time and all of these games I am still no good at Blackout. So,. I decided to stop beating myself up and call it quits. Why struggle at Blackout when I can have better success at MP?? I enjoy Blackout, but I'm tired of sucking at it. So, unfortunately, this guy is calling it quits. Thanks for the advice along the way and for taking the time to read this post. I welcome any input or constructive criticism you may have. Please save any derogatory remarks or attempts at being a jerk, its always better to be nice and polite , imho. Thanks!
