In competitive video games you should expect a 50% win rate. About half the time the other team will be better than you, half the time they won’t. You’re operating at the razor’s edge of your skill level. Today I realized that’s likely true in every other part of life as well.
@Contrariwise I feel like it's true for people who are pushing themselves, but maybe not for people who aren't, whether because they can't right now, or they're choosing not to at the moment.
@KimberlyHirsh Fair, and true, but difficult to fit caveats into a 300 character limit. I think without the background the observation wouldn't have made sense, and without the observation I'd just be talking about competitive gaming (which I have no interest in.)
