It doesn't make you a terrible fan, I've just never understood how people who don't "play competitively" don't get caught in this cycle:
-Friend 1 discovers tactics that beat Friend 2.
-Friend 2 tries different things until he or she finds counter-tactics to Friend 1's tactics.
-Friend 1 tries different things until he or she finds counter-tactics to Friend 2's tactics.
-Friend 2 tries different things etc etc and they both keep getting better and better.
It seems like the alternative to that is either both friends button mash or one friend just keeps beating the other friend with the same tactics, neither of which sounds fun.
