I know that D1 has come to an end but still I would appreciate if out there there is any experienced player who could help me understand what am I doing wrong when trying to counter handcannons.
I'm using Blind Perdition adept + wormwood/ice breaker and in average I'm always loosing encounters against handcannons unless I manage to put enough distance and kill fast (rare).
Please no obvious/ridiculous suggestions such as "radar awareness" or "aim better" or "that's the meta bro, grab a Palindrome yourself"...I already know that but I'm sure my gun is not that bad and I've seen lots of good players doing much better than me against the meta. When I tried asking them they don't know what to say.
Anyone willing to help?

It's about managing your engagements. With Blind Perdition/Wormwood, you shouldn't be losing many engagements as long as you stay out of close-mid-range. Get up close and melt them with the superior CQC gun (Wormwood) or stay back and shoot with your ranged primary. (BP) BP/Ice Breaker is a bit tougher... you gotta just keep your distance. Don't let yourself get pushed.
