Season One Champions
#19
Oh, on the topic of bringing ONE back.. in order to get and keep and edge you have to be inherently good at twitch games, learn proper tactical judgement, and be able to *effortlessly* navigate a maze, like second nature. I used to practice flying full speed at 2-square openings and nailing them every time. for hours. and hours.

 

I would practice hitting 1x1 asteroids with bombs in high-speed passes. for hours. and hours.

 

Best piece of advice I got in the game was from D-Tox (who rarely ever spoke) which was "don't miss". He was so right.

 

Funny thing about getting that good is how quickly you lose the skill. In order to stay sharp it takes hours of daily practice. As little as a week goes by and the edge dulls. not enough for a casual observer to notice, but at the highest levels of competition it shows.

 

What I'm getting at is that to be the best at a game like this you need daily dedicatioin and I don't have that kind of time anymore. I doubt any of the "old guard" does.
