So last night i Joined my first tourney with ken And OMG Nerves kicked my ass. My first match was against Floe. If you dont kno who he is Youtube him hes very respectable. I got my ass handed to me. Then i fought A scrubby adon. after i whooped him i wasnt satisfied by my performance by a long shot. Then i fought james chen Cammy He beat the pants off me NP. But i noticed my biggest enemy was My nerves. I was dropping some of the simplest combos. Combos i can do with my eyes close. So my question is how do you get pass your nerves? I felt like a zombie. You know how A zombie is reanimated he comes back with the basics. So i felt that only thing that I had going for me is my basic footsie skills everything else was up in smoke. One time during the adon fight i completely went blank. I Landed X-up Short standing jab ??? I did nothing i completely forgot my combo’s, straight up. Any help would be great thanks in advance.

Aside from just playing more offline in a crowd more, just try to stay calm and take deep breathes. Even if they’re on the offense you just need to keep a clear head. Live in the moment and just try to have fun. Listening to music helps also.

Co-sign on the music part. Playing in groups of people helps as well. But that is clearly tournament nerves. I’ve been entering tournaments for over a year now and I still get it sorta. But it’s fading away slowly but surely. Use base logic like “It’s just a game” or “He’s just another person” and that might calm you down some. If you lose a match don’t hit rematch, go back to character select screen and collect yourself. Then do work!

I started out just like u except I lost my matches just due to nerves, it was so frustrating. I use music, it helps me zone out everything but imo the best thing is just to play in more tourneys And if u could play more casuals against great people, after playing more casuals wit the best in AZ and gettin my ass beat, and winning some. The nerves aren’t there as much as before.

In a tournament, you need to care less about competing.

Regardless of what anyone says, comfort only comes from experience.

You’re testing yourself on material that you’ve studied and memorized. Yet students who know a text book from front to back can still fail an exam.

You shouldn’t fear losing, and just accept that you will ace your test from the beginning.

This so much! I’ve known a lot of good online players over the years that want to wait until they feel good enough to win a tournament until they go to them. They almost never do as good as they should at their first tournament. Like anything else, it takes time to get comfortable in a tournament setting (on or offline, but especially offline). So join as many as you can. Besides, they’re good times!

^ This, the more you play offline and with others and tourneys you attend you get more comfortable , as they said , being comfortable is a key, your skill will play in after comfort

i felt the same way but i came dead last lol but i was also around some known players and was scared as fuck

thanks guys i appreciate the input. Ill let you kno how my next tournement go.
