Can This Really be Random?

One wrong or right choice can mean victory or loss.  The 300 HP you lost for poking out may mean you can't win a 2v1 or 1v1 later on that would have been critical.  Anyone can do it.  I believe that.  But they need sufficient practice and more so the proper motivation. Not everyone is going to be like me with something to prove in a game they really love.  Some folks just won't care.  So all that matters, ever.  Is how much you care and how much you're willing to personally put in.  That's really it.
