Default issue going into gear smoothly

I replaced the stock mc with an adj tick mc after I bought the car. Car has 58,3xx miles and I replaced mc about 3-4 months ago but the car was a garage ***** until last week.
Just last week, I started to dd and I'm starting to feel the gears don't go in smoothly as when I first installed the mc.
I mean they go in and I'm able to drive fine but it is not a smooth change in gears now. Sometimes the gear goes in smooth but most of the gear changes including reverse go in a lil rough.

What could it be? Any help

With it running and the clutch pushed to the floor in neutral then shifting to 1st gear feel like it's making the car move a little? Does it drop right into gear when the car is off yet harder when the car is running. If the answer is yes then I would say you need to bleed the slave system, It sounds like air is the system is not letting the clutch release fully.

Never mind gents.. I adj the mc rod and it shifts smooth now.
I rarely drove her after the mc install so I didn't have the rod set to give enough pressure to switch gears..

Thk goodness lol
