It was probably all of them :P

There is one playthrough, which incidently is also one of my favourites, where he just can't complian about dropped inputs: XCom Enemy Unknown.

This playthrough highlights a few key things about Phil, because time isn't an issue during turnbased games. He rarerly, if at all makes use of the tools the game gives him. Nothing that he learned during the turorial is applied in the game.

But most importantly, he literally has no foresight at all. He lumps 4 soldiers together and then is surprised and dismayed that the enemy throws a grenade at him.

Sure he was less "Phil" during that game (before Twitch) but it highlights a lack of critical thinking skills. Which I believe is the same reason he is unable to adapt to his oppenents when playing prettt much any fighting game.

He excepts 'Y' to do 'Z', but when that doesn't happen (which is more often than not), the excuses begin to flow.

CoD also highlights him being unable to play as a team. He has no situational awareness and no object permanence. He'll instantly forget walking through a door, and then when jump complain he got stuck. He'll run blindly ahead, only to complain that his teammates are nowhere to be found.

And even if he ends on top of the scoreboard for his team, which he believes vindicates him, it is still a team game. Instead of working together as a team to win, he'll take his score alone as a reason why he isn't the problem. Which is ironic: if his team wins, it's thanks to him, if his team loses, it's because everyone else.

Which is pretty much his way of thinking regarding anything. A win/succes is his doing. A failure/loss is the fault of everything EXCEPT Phil.
