Low Level Lofty

pineauraOf course I'd find out there's a low-level Splatoon competitive thing now when I'm no longer interested in trying for it (for fun).
There's that small part of me trying to convince myself to do it anyways because I was looking for something like that during portions of the first two Splatoon games for so long, but I just can't. I'm too tired and too unmotivated to even push myself to get better at a game I decided I'm just gonna be chill on for Splatoon 3.
I haven't even bothered trying to get out of the B rank and am even considering just letting it drop down to C rank next season. The first two seasons I just pushed myself to get to B+ so I can just stay in B rank lobbies, but I don't even know if I have it in me to try doing that again.
This is a little sad for me in a way. I had wanted to try to get decent at the game for so long, but now I'm just...
I guess part of it is because I knew so many people who's aim was to get better and better at a game I love and I wanted to try and see if I could keep up so that maybe one day I can play with them again since silly nonsense games weren't their thing anymore. But I never could catch up.
And I'm aware that I have limitations, which prevents me from getting anywhere far.
It's fine that I'm not gonna push myself. In a way, it's relieving to not have that nagging feeling of being left behind. I just kinda wish this was an opportunity I could have had during Splatoon 1 and 2 when I just wanted to see what it would be like and I was trying to get there on my own somehow, you know? I'm happy for those that get this now. I'm seeing so many people excited for the opportunity and I do hope this helps them out, giving them a chance at something they may not have otherwise had. I'm hoping to watch the tourney(s) from them! It'll be so nice to properly support a side of Splatoon like that. I wish them all the fun and the best<3
