"test it yourself" is maybe The core learning-feedback loop in gbf but it's a lot harder to implement with a shallow box
Feb 6, 2026 00:41I can test a nilakantha vs a mugen bow vs a m3 tempering vs a nwf vs a cs very trivially, and as a fairly grid-stupid person this means that I can usually gradient-descent my way to something usable
tangentially: from my observations, a lot of what "good at grids" looks like in endgame players is just
1) access to the right pieces
2) some kind of idea of what is worth trying
3) willingness to try stuff
(2 is hiding a lot of skill ceiling, though)
