PvP. Eh. Its a weird topic to be answering on to be honest.
I absolutely suck at 1v1s, and only thrive in a group environment where I can control my own interaction by utilising the Fleet engagement. I will forever suck and lose 1v1s 95% of the time, because there is almost nothing I enjoy about duels. They are basically either (to me) one skilled player beating a not so skilled player, or they are a remarkable humbling experience for a more skilled player to be brought down by a lesser skilled player who played exceptionally in that fight. Most often, if I meet someone in a duel, I lose. I accept it and give the duel anyway, because its nice and the right thing to do. But I get barely anything out of it other than an hour cooldown in a system I wanted to be in, or 50x blued in conn.
Some of it is that I don't have the time to invest in it. I make other plans and carry out them instead because they are a better and more pleasurable use of my time. Some of it is a desire to not really do anything to improve because I'm already satisfied with my performances in the limited scenarios that I do enjoy. And that's what really matters to me.
