Does anyone else suddenly get really bad at the game out of nowhere?

I took about a week off from playing dbd and I'm honestly so bad now it's kinda embarrassing playing with friends.

It's a mix of my bad decisions, bad reactions, killer desperation and killer idiocy which determines how bad I've been doing.

I don't get it but I'm still on point as killer but Survivor is just suddenly more troublesome.

    Just a little rusty, or just a bad day. After I took a couple days off killer and played mostly survivor, I kept missing easy hits that I really shouldn't of.

    I've been able to 360 at least once every match. Now it's once in a blue moon and I've been playing consistently.

    Sometimes i end up playing exclusively survivor or exclusively killer for a long time and when i switch to the other i make embarrassing mistakes. As a survivor getting back to back skill checks and messing both up or as a killer getting juked by someone running in circles in the corn field.

    I get like that every few months with one or the other. I’m glad I’m not alone

    It happens with everything you invest time into and want to get better.

    It's a natural thing and a sign that you're actually learning. Give it some time and you'll see, eventually you'll be back stronger than before.

    Usually depends on who you’re versing too, I won a few games in a row as GF, then got destroyed by swf later.

    All depends on how the stars align 😂

    Everyday my man. Literally one game I throw my team, especially after a week-ish of not playing, and another game someone compliments me or isn't pissed at me. It's like lost practice. No worries. Just need a warm up for the day or something.

    I am useless at the moment. After being teamed with potatoes and not escaping for about 8 matches I thought Id get in on the killer action but my first game doing a wraith daily they all escaped. The next game as Doc I only got 2 cos I caught one right at the end.

    Actually as solo survivor its very frustrating. No-one wants to do gens (except when I play killer). Half the time I have no idea what the rest of the team are doing...

    I go through this with Nurse all the time. I'll have two games where I feel like a demi-god, end chases in 15 seconds, nail every LOS prediction, etc. And then I'll have 3 games where a survivor runs me for 3 gens and speaks authoritatively in postgame chat about which killers I should be playing

    Had a match about an hour ago where I missed practically every skill check. It was horribly embarrassing.
