I used to really analyze and adapt to my opponent, playing around their strengths and putting relentless pressure on them when possible. I had fun focusing on the very minimal movements that would allow me to control ranges and zones while maintaining options for both offense and defense.
After spending a long while not really playing Graal and coming back, the delay involved with the server and playerbase has become really difficult for me to adjust to and deal with. Everything I thought I knew is useless when I'm analyzing movement and patterns from a second or so ago. It just seems to depend so much more heavily on anticipation and dodging attacks that seem to come from the future, and as unreliable as latency can be in any game, I find sparring nowadays to be really disappointing and not nearly as fun.. IMO.
