Watching this video was fascinating to me, made me think about the difference between purples and reds, where one group just does what they've always done because 'that's what they've always done' and the other group actively pays attention to what's happening and constantly adapts to the flow of battle. No points for guessing which group is which. Also explains why I'm so tired after a streak of good games. Thinking is hard yo. I should do more of it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Watching a lot of low %ers if you die and they're still around, their play even looks low energy. WoT is even worse with requiring lots out of you, nevermind FPSes or whatnot.
