Practice or Demos?
If your trying to learn a game and improve your skills, what is most important thing to do? Watching the best player is an awesome way to learn small tricks and positions a pro use and see exactly how he’s thinking. Make sure your watching a quality demo though, where he’s playing against another top pro or at least an up and coming pro. You don’t want to watch him play a noob, as it’ll just be owning someone who is just really bad.
So watching demos is great right? To an extent. You need to experience these experiences yourself! So watching demos should be like 10-15% of your time, and the other time being, practice practice practice… Don’t think watching demos is going to make you the best player in the world overnight. You need to learn why, how, when, what this game is throwing at you. When you have an answer to every situation, then your going to be on your way to the top… Then its just matter of doing it faster and faster and always being a step ahead of your opponent.
So watch some demos, try out some tactics you learned from watching the pro, and just try to experience every situation 100′s if not 1,000′s of times to perfect it!
Practice, practice, practice.
