Some find that going pro is a lucrative way to earn money and win fame simply for playing the game you love—while others just love winning a lot for bragging rights. (The game has local rankings, and being a top player in your area is definitely something to flex.)

So if you want to be better at your game of choice, here are a few simple (yet high-effort) ways to “git gud”:

Study the metagame

Online games don’t exist in a vacuum. Developers constantly both add and take away new things, and the way people play at one point won’t ever be the same, say, a few months from then.

That’s why it’s always important to stay updated with the different movements in the metagame—if you log on and play the same way you did a while back, be prepared to be shocked (sometimes in a good way, but mostly in a bad way). There are a lot of resources to study, like tutorial videos, dedicated game websites, and even game livestreams.

Practice, practice, practice

Of course, you can’t win games just by studying. Everyone knows this; you’ve gotta practice because all that theory doesn’t apply to the actual game.

One thing—though it’s totally fine to practice on your own, team games require you to have chemistry and knowledge of how your teammates generally play. You won’t always get better when it comes to playing with a team when you queue up with random players on the internet, so if you want a shot at winning official tournaments or you just want to rank up with your friends, get your squad in regular practice sessions. It’s a lot better that way.

Do what works for you

Mobile games have made it incredibly easy to play genres that usually worked a lot better with a keyboard and mouse thanks to successful in-game designs, but you don’t have to stop there.

The beauty of these games is the ability to customize controls and control schemes. For some games, you can change where buttons are to suit your playstyle and produce better results. If you want to take it a step further, you can use controllers specifically made for smartphones, especially if your fingers tend to sweat a lot. All of this isn’t really cheating—gaming is trying to find the best way to play, and if that works for you, you should definitely make these changes to be a better gamer.

And doing what works for you also includes having a great phone for gaming—If you want to be an elite player at your game of choice, it’s time to gear up with the latest and the best!
