Physical skill no. Mental skill yes.

I don't understand how people can be this bad at video games. I am fucking horrific at Street Fighter, and fighting games in general. They've played this game more than me. Why am I able to beat them so easily?
I guess a lifetime of vidya just made me able to pick up games quicker than most.

if you have normie friends you are a normie yourself
>pro wrestling is good
>>342422868
Some do.
There is definitely skill involved with a lot of games.
However, I think the whole e-sports or pro gaming shit is infuriating and stupid as fuck. Comparing "cyberathletes" to actual athletes is just embarassing.
>>342423317
Sure thing bro.
Have fun in your pillow fort resisting everyone around you who might be fun to hang out with because they aren't a reprehensible bastard.

WWE is bad
>>342425024
That's easy though, try doing invincible ledge dashes constantly..
>>342425036
If you're talking about pro wrestling i'll assure you watching WWE only makes you want to kill yourself.

not rote learning fag. 99 percent of that shit is randomized and moves different each time. It would be rote learning if the patterns were static.

Really?
>>342425943
Is it really that unbelievable that people are bad at fighting games?
Whenever i play against my younger brother or one of his friends i actively let them hit me.
They can't even do Hadoukens
>>342425943
Is it really hard to believe that somebody who commits a few hours a day to a hobby over the course of a lifetime is automatically better than the vast majority of people who might sink an hour or two here and there?
Have you never been in that situation?
>>342425998
You get around 8 lives for the whole second loop. I doubt you could even clear the first loop.
