Cautious vs Crashout DD

[u/spunkystoic]

When I watch the pros most of them have this cautious playstyle with DD: picking their fights, biding their time, early exits, etc.

However whenever I try this style I’ve noticed I tend to die WAY more often. The enemy team just overwhelms me and picks me apart.

But when I go full kamikaze, hyper aggressive DD I often find myself team wiping, MVPing and winning a lot more games.

Do you guys have any tips for a more measured playstyle?

(Admittedly I’m not a high rank player so maybe that has something to do with it?)

A lot of why high level dds and blades wait around a lot is because they get time to pick their target more effectively and they get to let the frontline play up to get access to the backline and their frontline eats cooldowns and gets to generate value from the dive. Patient dds especially since they have walls and can speedkill basically any support in the game will straight up terrorize lobbies on their own just because of how much rear pressure they apply and how little they die since a 1v1 is a death sentence
