Anyone who wants to explore the concept in this video further, watch Karate Kid. People remember, more than anything, the training regimens Miyagi used to teach Daniel, and how the monotonous chores magically trained Daniel in martial arts, but the takeaway people need to remember is that Miyagi was teaching Daniel to use brain-dead karate techniques. This is because Miyagi wished to train Daniel in a matter of weeks, to effectively combat blackbelts, ruthlessly trained warriors. The fighting game equivalent would be teaching Daniel to use sweep-kick Hydouken, blocking high and blocking low, and using Shoryuken when an opponent jumps. The crane-kick can be thought of as the one special complex move Daniel learned by happenstance.
It comes back to an earlier video about practicing by focusing what tools you learn as well, by focusing your options down, you more easily make them reflexive and SysOne decisions, allowing you to move on later without wearing yourself out with too much all at once

10:57 Funnily enough, people suffering from clinical depression actually came up with a term to describe this in the context of their lives, where mental energy is in abnormally short supply It's called Spoons, and consists of counting your mental stamina up into several spoons, each task costing varying amounts-when you're out, you're out and not getting up until you've had serious R&R. Obviously healthier people have tons of spoons by this lens, to the point where imo, we never notice until we're almost dry.
Just an FYI, spoon theory was developed by someone with an autoimmune disease and not depression. It also is recognized as gaining ground out of the chronic fatigue/pain community. As someone with a mood disorder and a chronic pain disorder I can tell you that the challenges faced by mental disabilities and physical disabilities are different and shouldn’t be conflated.
Love this. It makes me think about things like how our brains change over time, i.e; I was better at Super Mario Bros 1 when I was 10 than I am now but would wreck my former self in most fighters, or how I taught myself to play bass guitar without an amp (so I wouldn't bother anyone) and had to painfully unlearn my improper habit of playing too hard and wearing myself out. We can all be John Wick, but for most of us only a few minutes a day.
"its not a hard question" me sitting here for 10 min trying to find out why:uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh edit:i got it it just took me longer than i would like to admit
Took me a while but I get it. If the ball costs ten cents and the bat costs a dollar. Then that makes the bat only cost 90 cents more. You'll need to rework the figures so you get a proper 1 dollar difference. 5 cents vs 1dollar and 5 cents makes for a difference of 1 dollar.
Bat is $1.05 because it costs 1 dollar more than the ball. Since the result is $1.10, Ball is 5 cents + bat is 1 dollar 5 cents = $1.10. The key words are ''more than'' here. I think I also saw a question in the past but it was worded differently.
4:47 "hola super nintendo chalmers". Ya me acordé por qué amo tanto este canal. Well, being serious, I really love every video that you upload, your effort in editing, themes, examples, everything. They are really inmersive, and really makes me to be a good player and also my friends, just for enjoying fighthing games as a professionals, with that skill level. It's just amazing, Gerald.
This one is my favourite YT channel of all time. Regardless of the topic. I love how I can find interesting ideas, articles or topic even outside of fighting game related stuff while the main topic is still fighting game related. Sharing your sources is such an easy thing to do and still so rare on other channels. I usually read/watch at least 3-4 of them after every video. I cannot express how much I appreciate your effort to produce quality content for us, viewers. Please, never stop it.
I believe that was the reasoning stated in the anime. There was also a reason why he sits like he does in the anime which also had something to do with his brain or some shit.
When a video on fighting games starts referencing literally Nobel Prize winning research to make a good point, you know you’ve found an awesome channel. I’m so impressed by the style, effort, and time put i to this work. You’ve got a sub for life!
Yeah I didn't not finish the phrase. I usually eat my bread with some sort of fruit spread. I guess if it's like pasta I'll eat bread and butter though
You nailed it when you said "thinking". We think until we don't have to, then we are efficient. Even though an observer might "think" - "that move was fast" or "that move was slow", the performer's mind is in another realm - the realm of "no thought"........the realm of "not fast/not slow".
For those of you wondering what ocv means, it stands for one character victory. Kof is a 3 character team game. It's like the original blue print for capcom's vs games in terms of the basic structure.
As a note: Daniel Kahneman's S1 and S2 theory has been overcome by the latest researches. We can at most categorise decisions in Type1 and 2. In truth there's a continuum though. Like shades of grey. Good content!
7:19 Oh my god I am so sick of this video. As someone who studies psychology this video comes up every time the topic of attention does. I mean it makes an excellent point but holy shit I feel like I’ve seen this video more than the sun in summer. At least Core-A gave it a new perspective on it.
They showed us this video in driving school before I got my license. I immediately raised my hand and asked about the gorilla. The instructor asked who told me about it and didn't believe me when I said no one, and that I had just noticed it.
"Does that mean getting good is the key to happiness" you know I know you said let's not get carried away but it makes sense. I only ever feel depressed irl if I'm being really complacent/lazy, I guess I'm not using system 2 outside of video games
It is! We need to do things we find meaningful to maintain our sense of self worth. Of course you have to figure out what you find meaningful and there's also finer points like limiting high stress activities, but the main thing is to find activities you care about and git gud! Disclaimer: it's much harder than it sounds (but still doable)
@@nahometesfay1112 If that's how you see it. Being good is a side effect of being active in an activity, the desire to get good is ambiguous and can lead to suffering.
Fantastic analysis. This open and honest look at the balance between mind games and physical skill required to maintain in a competitive setting is so relatable. Too often is player skill boiled down to go-to meta combos and tactics, but the mental fortitude and calmness required to win a tournament is a real thing.
9:24 So I was at Level Up Expo (2020) and this basically summarizes my experience. My opponent was playing defensive, I got frustrated and wasnt thinking of ways to get around it and even though I was sure I was better, I lost the set anyways. Since then I've been trying to fix my frustration while dealing with defensive players, but I'm telling you, it's hard. I know that if I get mad I'll lose, but I dont want to wait 30 seconds just to hit my opponent either. The only way I can describe that feeling is like fighting not only your opponent but yourself as well. To anyone who wants to do anything competitively, I can only tell you to be patient. In the long run patience is going to win you a lot more games and I wish I had understood that sooner.
Yes absolutely getting good is the key to happiness. You can see it everywhere, not just in gaming but in literally any activity. No one is more stressed out frustrated and miserable than people struggling with tasks.
@@herpderp8267 Mayweather is the best defensive fighter of all time. He fights unorthodox and he's a counter puncher. All he has to do is pivot and use a shoulder role to evade anything. It helps being super fast also.
XDie StayFly Yup! Not the biggest boxing fan out there, but from what I hear Mayweather tends to win by scoring more points from the judges because his shots are cleaner and his opponent would likely miss more punches It’s “smart” and his record reflects it, but obviously if you’re an casual fan looking for aggresion you’d be very turned off.
Yes. This entire video is a ripoff of Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking, fast and slow" which helps you determine the best times to apply system 1 or system 2 in your every day life
trying to digest this... system 1 = reaction, flowchart & quick mechanics (low brain drain) system 2 = in-game adaptation, player/match-up based game plan (high brain drain) ??? wonder how much more of the system 2 stuff pros manage to convert into system 1 :thinking: (besides attack inputs of course)
imagine if your game sense is so sick that you can't get cheesed and it's easy to cheese your opponent. or if your adaptation is so good that it clicks super fast naturally. oh man what if EVERYTHING gets converted to system 1 and you can just flow and destroy while playing super hype. wait that's mang0 isn't it
@@gunkman_man I think it would be like taking a hit of crack, or for bipolar people, entering hypomania. I know that Mahvel and Skullgirls pros can belt out their ultra combos like it's nothing throughout a tournament, and on my really good days, I've been able to put a lot more things into system 1 than normal, including tight fastfalls and bait decisions.
mostly the stuff very new players take for granted having to learn day one. To reiterate LordKnight's old SRK article 'Look at the Screen', *screen awareness* is something players don't integrate until after awhile. Otherwise they are consciously paying too much attention at that information and taking it in context. Along with mental reminders to themselves how to execute towards the win condition. One thing that is a high intensity System 2 activity that top players save their energy for is increased anticipation. In Tekken gameplay its been called 'compact' play, where not only do you have to play your opponent at a dangerously closer range. So attention to movement becomes more important but also trying to anticipate more moves to try block, actively punish or even catch a low parry. Because their opponent may not give enough mistakes to try punish and get ahead of the life lead. Players cannot keep playing at this intensity for long and it may drain them too hard for when they need to do this again very soon.
The bat and ball question is actually brilliant. I've been obsessed to the reasoning behing the correct answer until I've found a clear and concise explanation.
@Core-A Gaming @10:05 didn't ego depletion as a theory basically fall apart a few years back because they couldn't recreate any of the results? I remember there being articles on it, scishow covered it as well.
That’s why I love fighting games. Changing your tempo can make a character feel brand new. Sometimes I like to play fast paced and try and scare people by putting pressure on them and other times I love to play slower and try to be more reaction and read based. You can even combine the two by assigning them different parts like system 1 for advantage and system 2 for neutral or disadvantage.

Funnily enough, people suffering from clinical depression actually came up with a term to describe this in the context of their lives, where mental energy is in abnormally short supply
It's called Spoons, and consists of counting your mental stamina up into several spoons, each task costing varying amounts-when you're out, you're out and not getting up until you've had serious R&R.
Obviously healthier people have tons of spoons by this lens, to the point where imo, we never notice until we're almost dry.
thus, i guess then comes the burnout
Interesting.
Just an FYI, spoon theory was developed by someone with an autoimmune disease and not depression. It also is recognized as gaining ground out of the chronic fatigue/pain community. As someone with a mood disorder and a chronic pain disorder I can tell you that the challenges faced by mental disabilities and physical disabilities are different and shouldn’t be conflated.
Love this. It makes me think about things like how our brains change over time, i.e; I was better at Super Mario Bros 1 when I was 10 than I am now but would wreck my former self in most fighters, or how I taught myself to play bass guitar without an amp (so I wouldn't bother anyone) and had to painfully unlearn my improper habit of playing too hard and wearing myself out. We can all be John Wick, but for most of us only a few minutes a day.

"its not a hard question"
me sitting here for 10 min trying to find out why:uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
edit:i got it it just took me longer than i would like to admit
Same
Took me a while but I get it.
If the ball costs ten cents and the bat costs a dollar. Then that makes the bat only cost 90 cents more.
You'll need to rework the figures so you get a proper 1 dollar difference.
5 cents vs 1dollar and 5 cents makes for a difference of 1 dollar.
Bat is $1.05 because it costs 1 dollar more than the ball. Since the result is $1.10,
Ball is 5 cents + bat is 1 dollar 5 cents = $1.10.
The key words are ''more than'' here. I think I also saw a question in the past but it was worded differently.
Just remove the dollar from the original number and cut the 10 cents in half.
It's pretty simple. You gotta do a happybirthday TOD on both and then drop the combo at the end resulting in only 5 cents remaining
4:47 "hola super nintendo chalmers". Ya me acordé por qué amo tanto este canal.
Well, being serious, I really love every video that you upload, your effort in editing, themes, examples, everything. They are really inmersive, and really makes me to be a good player and also my friends, just for enjoying fighthing games as a professionals, with that skill level. It's just amazing, Gerald.

This one is my favourite YT channel of all time. Regardless of the topic. I love how I can find interesting ideas, articles or topic even outside of fighting game related stuff while the main topic is still fighting game related. Sharing your sources is such an easy thing to do and still so rare on other channels. I usually read/watch at least 3-4 of them after every video. I cannot express how much I appreciate your effort to produce quality content for us, viewers. Please, never stop it.
_Feel the beat, feel the flow_
_Feel the game, feel your soul_
I’VE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FIR ANOTHER VIDEO THANK YOU SO MUCH JARED
Jared from Core-B Gaming?
Does this mean we're going to get free subway gift cards for watching the channel?
Gerald man, lol.
Players: "easy inputs never won tournaments"
Core A: "you'd like that wouldn't you"
"People are better at doing mental tasks after they eat sugar".
IS THAT WHY L FROM DEATH NOTE ALWAYS EATS SUGARY FOODS???!
He's optimizing
@Kwanele urubos the game is life
I believe that was the reasoning stated in the anime. There was also a reason why he sits like he does in the anime which also had something to do with his brain or some shit.
i see.. Because Kira is playing a super lame defensive game
and he doesn't have a Taser. lol
Actually yes, and he also sits that way because of that.
When a video on fighting games starts referencing literally Nobel Prize winning research to make a good point, you know you’ve found an awesome channel. I’m so impressed by the style, effort, and time put i to this work. You’ve got a sub for life!
why did I immediately decide I wanted to eat the SNES mini before I even realized both items were inedible
Gerald said “We” and it took me forever to find the like button cause my eyes wouldn’t stop tearing up, Welcome back and hope all is well Man
Gerald "bread and....."
My brain "CHEESE"
Gerald "...butter"
Me "well that's stupid"
I'm glad I'm not alone 🤣
ohmygod - thankyou. though, I admit, it was more like...."uh... cheese?"
also glad to know I wasn't alone either!
Same, dawg
Yeah I didn't not finish the phrase. I usually eat my bread with some sort of fruit spread. I guess if it's like pasta I'll eat bread and butter though
Moral of video:
Taze the lame out of em.
I don't understand that language sorry.
@@DreamWeave288 im sorry... My diction is here to stay, this notions dichotomy may also not be apparent.......
moral would be true if justin ever stopped playing lame Kappa
What doesn't kill you only makes you lamer
just turtle when ure leading, and dont even approach ppl who turtling with 5% hp left
This is my favorite video of yours. Awesome job as always!
You nailed it when you said "thinking". We think until we don't have to, then we are efficient. Even though an observer might "think" - "that move was fast" or "that move was slow", the performer's mind is in another realm - the realm of "no thought"........the realm of "not fast/not slow".
It always impresses me how much love and effort you guys put on these videos. By far the best FGC channel on youtube. Thanks Core-a gaming!!
Finally someone is giving credit to my solid Ken gameplan
Still love how this channels makes sweet justice to the whole Street Fighter III games.
Also, what a sick Venue. All that grinding will f'in pay off!
For those of you wondering what ocv means, it stands for one character victory. Kof is a 3 character team game. It's like the original blue print for capcom's vs games in terms of the basic structure.
This video has become the sole piece of content in TH-cam that effectively talks me back into training.
Thank you
As a note: Daniel Kahneman's S1 and S2 theory has been overcome by the latest researches.
We can at most categorise decisions in Type1 and 2. In truth there's a continuum though. Like shades of grey.
Good content!
8:15 This is your brain on fighting games
Core-A: "Bread and..."
Me: "Wine."
Core-A: "Butter."
Exactly what I thought first
One of the best videos on this channel. Incredible work.
Got recommended from a comment thinking this was an old video. Just released and S+ tier channel. I havent subscribed to something new in so long
7:19 Oh my god I am so sick of this video. As someone who studies psychology this video comes up every time the topic of attention does. I mean it makes an excellent point but holy shit I feel like I’ve seen this video more than the sun in summer. At least Core-A gave it a new perspective on it.
I feel you, brother
They showed us this video in driving school before I got my license. I immediately raised my hand and asked about the gorilla. The instructor asked who told me about it and didn't believe me when I said no one, and that I had just noticed it.
i'm so sick and tired of the bear version
I think they did it on every other episode of Brain Games
I've seen that video at least 10 times in my life
They've returned.
"Does that mean getting good is the key to happiness" you know I know you said let's not get carried away but it makes sense. I only ever feel depressed irl if I'm being really complacent/lazy, I guess I'm not using system 2 outside of video games
It is! We need to do things we find meaningful to maintain our sense of self worth. Of course you have to figure out what you find meaningful and there's also finer points like limiting high stress activities, but the main thing is to find activities you care about and git gud!
Disclaimer: it's much harder than it sounds (but still doable)
Less of getting good, more so becoming more skillful rather than being lethargic
@@MingusDynastyy that just sounds like git gud with more verbiage
@@nahometesfay1112 If that's how you see it. Being good is a side effect of being active in an activity, the desire to get good is ambiguous and can lead to suffering.
I dunno. Finding meaning and acquiring skill in an area aren't necessarily the same thing. Not really.
Fantastic analysis. This open and honest look at the balance between mind games and physical skill required to maintain in a competitive setting is so relatable. Too often is player skill boiled down to go-to meta combos and tactics, but the mental fortitude and calmness required to win a tournament is a real thing.
I love the SFIII animations y’all put together
My friend: How do I get good at fighting games?
Pro fighting game player: It takes years of hard work and practice!
Me: Lots of sugar.
If so I'm unbeatable, I have so much sugar in blood a vampire would die of diabetes.
"At least doing a 360 is kind of like churning butter" because I'm sure the audience has loads of experience with that
So cool that you've brought the idea of flow to FGC. I've been thinking about it for ages!
Wow, stumbled on this video by TH-cam recommendations and it's the best video i've seen today. Awesome content

9:24 So I was at Level Up Expo (2020) and this basically summarizes my experience. My opponent was playing defensive, I got frustrated and wasnt thinking of ways to get around it and even though I was sure I was better, I lost the set anyways.
Since then I've been trying to fix my frustration while dealing with defensive players, but I'm telling you, it's hard. I know that if I get mad I'll lose, but I dont want to wait 30 seconds just to hit my opponent either. The only way I can describe that feeling is like fighting not only your opponent but yourself as well.
To anyone who wants to do anything competitively, I can only tell you to be patient. In the long run patience is going to win you a lot more games and I wish I had understood that sooner.
basically, “outlame your opponent.”
This channel is incredible, never made a patreon before but for this channel- it's a dollar well spent
Yes absolutely getting good is the key to happiness. You can see it everywhere, not just in gaming but in literally any activity. No one is more stressed out frustrated and miserable than people struggling with tasks.
Jokes on you, I find clocks to have a very great taste and texture.
I agree
Clocks are filled with umami
That's also why I'd personally eat a clock rather than a mini snes.

Never thought I’d see Manny Pacquiao speaking on this channel, but given how infamous Mayweather’s fighting style is, it completely makes sense 😅
Egg Salad Sandwich what’s his fighting style?
@@herpderp8267 Mayweather is the best defensive fighter of all time. He fights unorthodox and he's a counter puncher. All he has to do is pivot and use a shoulder role to evade anything. It helps being super fast also.
XDie StayFly Yup!
Not the biggest boxing fan out there, but from what I hear Mayweather tends to win by scoring more points from the judges because his shots are cleaner and his opponent would likely miss more punches
It’s “smart” and his record reflects it, but obviously if you’re an casual fan looking for aggresion you’d be very turned off.
@@herpderp8267 He plays lame.
One of the best gaming video I've watched on TH-cam this year. Thought provoking.
"And why you can know how to quickly finish the phrase bread and..."
*CHEESE. IT'S CHEESE!*
"...butter"
Dammit
Cheese sandwiches are good, tho.
This topic is also applicable in job with more thinking not only in gaming.
Yes. This entire video is a ripoff of Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking, fast and slow" which helps you determine the best times to apply system 1 or system 2 in your every day life
trying to digest this...
system 1 = reaction, flowchart & quick mechanics (low brain drain)
system 2 = in-game adaptation, player/match-up based game plan (high brain drain) ???
wonder how much more of the system 2 stuff pros manage to convert into system 1 :thinking: (besides attack inputs of course)
imagine if your game sense is so sick that you can't get cheesed and it's easy to cheese your opponent.
or if your adaptation is so good that it clicks super fast naturally.
oh man what if EVERYTHING gets converted to system 1 and you can just flow and destroy while playing super hype. wait that's mang0 isn't it
@@gunkman_man I think it would be like taking a hit of crack, or for bipolar people, entering hypomania. I know that Mahvel and Skullgirls pros can belt out their ultra combos like it's nothing throughout a tournament, and on my really good days, I've been able to put a lot more things into system 1 than normal, including tight fastfalls and bait decisions.
mostly the stuff very new players take for granted having to learn day one. To reiterate LordKnight's old SRK article 'Look at the Screen', *screen awareness* is something players don't integrate until after awhile. Otherwise they are consciously paying too much attention at that information and taking it in context. Along with mental reminders to themselves how to execute towards the win condition.
One thing that is a high intensity System 2 activity that top players save their energy for is increased anticipation. In Tekken gameplay its been called 'compact' play, where not only do you have to play your opponent at a dangerously closer range. So attention to movement becomes more important but also trying to anticipate more moves to try block, actively punish or even catch a low parry. Because their opponent may not give enough mistakes to try punish and get ahead of the life lead. Players cannot keep playing at this intensity for long and it may drain them too hard for when they need to do this again very soon.
Gerald: "Bread and..."
Me: "PEANUT BUTTER!"
Gerald: "Butter."
Me: "I was close."
The bat and ball question is actually brilliant. I've been obsessed to the reasoning behing the correct answer until I've found a clear and concise explanation.
2:03 I instinctively said "milk" lol
The point is that you had an immediate completor, not exactly what that completer was.
@Core-A Gaming @10:05 didn't ego depletion as a theory basically fall apart a few years back because they couldn't recreate any of the results? I remember there being articles on it, scishow covered it as well.

Bread and...
Me: WATER!!
butter.
Me: I'm so stupidt...
i said water too lmao
"5 cents"
Me: 2 dollars
Wait the fu-
I just got back to college and the mention of system 1 and 2 thinking in my online philosophy class has brought me back here
I love this channel SO MUCH!
thank you for your awesome work, those kind of videos help me in my real life, not only on games
This just made my night.
"If you can play it slowly - you can play it quickly."
My brain is so slow that i didn't even understand the bread and butter reference
The amount of effort put in this video is stunning...
That’s why I love fighting games. Changing your tempo can make a character feel brand new. Sometimes I like to play fast paced and try and scare people by putting pressure on them and other times I love to play slower and try to be more reaction and read based. You can even combine the two by assigning them different parts like system 1 for advantage and system 2 for neutral or disadvantage.
He said “bread and..” and my mind went “toast” does that make me extra brain dead?
