Does anyone have any advice as to how I can train myself to never mess up an opener? Or maybe some tools that help memorization?
Its an issue of practice. It's what it boils down to. For me personally, I actually turn on 2 extra hot bars and stick my opener in the exact order skill for skill on it. I dont play from those hotbars, but I have it so I can look at my opener as I do it until I memorized it. Works for me, but its a bit unconventional.

But in any case, the main take away is practice on dummies.
