NES Tetris. I can't DAS for shit, even with the DAS trainer. Can't hypertap either.

Online games in general. I miss being a kid and trying hard and owning the noobs that didn't put in the effort. Just knowing a little more than everyone else and being better than average. But online gaming changed and the competition has gotten harder so everyone follows a tried and true meta strategy and you either go on reddit or discord and learn it or you're forever a non-factor. There was a time when I would win 90% of my dota games and I could play with heroes that people thought were bad mostly because I had good control of the wc3 engine and a natural intuition for where the enemy might be in the fog. But now it's like, you do _this_ or you lose, you send this hero mid or your team ragequits, etc.
