Anyone here have a game genre that they were or are abnormally skilled in for seemingly no reason?

I went from shit teir to Asian teir in light gun shooters over the course of a year, despite not really being into them up until that point.

Though that was around 4-5 years ago, and I'm much rustier now so I assume I got practice doing something over that year I just don't know what.

I'm really good at all the games I play simply because I'm smart. It's not really any more complicated than that. I love deconstructing games like I love deconstructing everything else.

i went through a period in my early 20s where i was god-tier at street fighter 3, but only sf3. this only lasted about two years but i used to tear some serious ass at it. all of a sudden though my skills dropped off, and it wasn't like i just started getting rusty and out of practice but just one day i simply couldn't get the combos to flow, my guesses and instincts were all wrong and my reflexes just disappeared completely. i was actually in a pretty serious car accident around this time and wasn't hurt badly but lost consciousness, but suspect that did some kind of damage that killed my game

Yeah, in all videogames. It's actually a bit of curse, because it gets boring playing against most people due to a lack of challenge.

I think the only genre of game i struggle with is mobas, and that's just because it feels like the game's entire skill is just decision making and planning

my strongest genre is rhythm games, but not bad at everything else, although picking up details and adapting to situations isn't a useful skill when competing unless you want to learn your opponent.

Im god tier at FPS games but wouldnt call it abnormal considering that i play since UT 99 and everyone is worse than shit at them nowadays

Others genres i also get gud pretty fast but always thought they are broken and unbalanced somehow so never cared much

This.

I play UT99 real well and everything else i pick up to a competent level really fast. I also got really good at guitar hero but i could never finish raining blood.

Guitar hero isn't hard, you have a "double input" strum bar, a "weird" version of chord cohesion (you can hit a 2 and 12 but not 1 and 12 when holding the same frets/note,), easy mode hammer offs and no accuracy rating unlike better rhythm games, custom songs on gh3 really push the game to an acceptable level of hard

You watch Rick and Morty too, my fellow genius?

Just Ace of Spades. I'm usually absolute shit at FPS games, but in ace of spades I'm constantly MVP and being banned for hax that I do not possess.

Though it could just be the other guys playing it suck ass.

Almost everything else is because of practice and lots of hours put in.

No, just a bunch of genres I'm decent at

Rhythm games, but once you've memorized one, you've memorized all of them.

I suck with them now though.
