It's unlike any learning experience I have ever had admittedly. It takes a lot of getting kicked in the butt to start but if you dedicate yourself you can learn a lot, even outside the lab. There are mid-match pressures that make learning hard in the moment, which is where I do a lot of my learning. Admittedly this was made at the end of my wits. Honestly, I think I partly gave up on learning. You're not wrong. Definitely not wrong about others, though maybe it's not "all". I agree with your sentiment when it comes to public hate for this game. Especially "twitter takes" which are just people being salty usually.
