But for the rest it's a "time" grind, and I think it's inevitable, like any other competitive PvP games.
But PvP is about adapting to the situation constantly, changing your playstyle depending on classes, strategy, cooldowns, etc. That's the hard part.
Unfortunately, unless you're willing to really put in the time, it's never gonna get better.
I don't agree that google's search engine is becoming increasingly dysfunctional, that's just not true. I think now, there are a lot more resources online to help with PvP players than there used to be, Drustvar's, arenamasterio, to name just a few.. Watching Twitch streamers that do PvP, is a really good way to become better (Like a LOT better). Specially if they play the class that you are playing, you will see different decisions in their gameplay, things you can incorporate into your own. If you are attentive, you can improve really quickly. You can also ask questions on things that are unclear to you, and hopefully get an answer. Also recording your games, and re-watching them afterwards, to try to find mistakes, or things you might have miss that were important help tremendously.
Also, I just want to add that this forum is probably one of the worse place you can come in order to get better at PvP, there is a lot of misinformation and players that have absolutely no idea what they are talking about, but presenting a "I know everything" vibe, while in reality they are probably hardstuck at 1900 or less.
PvP communities are usually very toxic and competitive. If it's WoW, or League, or Valorant, or Dota2, or whatever else... There is a very steep learning curve, that takes a long time and requires tons of patience. These games (WoW included) are way too complex for new players to be able to just get in, and have fun. It's not gonna happen, unless you enjoy getting your ass handed to you constantly for months (or even years).
Unless you got a really good friend who can coach you, let you know the "ins and out", and facilitate these process... You're gonna have a bad time.
I don't feel there can be a way for a "onboarding ramp" for newbs, just because of the nature of the game, and the nature of "PvP" games in general.
