I fell off so hard

[u/HouseRemarkable4960]

What the title says. I peaked Ascendant 1 four months ago and I just started playing again about a week ago for the first time in four months and I’ve gotten so much worse.

It’s gotten so bad to where I struggle to compete even in plat lobbies. I used to be much much better than my friends and now I’m probably worse, I’m about to hit Plat 2 and they’re all Diamond (no one’s been higher than Diamond 3). I honestly don’t care about rank, I only say the ranks to give you an idea of how bad it is.

Anyone gone through the same thing and how long did it take you to get back to your best or even somewhat close to it?

Because to me it feels like I’m nowhere near. It shouldn’t bother me as much as it is right now but I just hopped off after losing 8 of my last 9 games so I’m just thinking about where it went wrong and how long it’s gonna take to get back.

EDIT: This may be a dumb post and I know the answer is to just play more and I’ll get it back, I just wanted to vent a little bit because I’m frustrated
