| *Playing effectively means a lot of labbing complicated tech and learning character-specific interactions across the entire roster. It's a lot of work for punching someone in a video game.

| *Momentum doesn't cannot be regained easily but can be lost quickly. It is easier to aim for a long-term advantage, over seeking out a sudden victory.
