    90s: only won one obscure Quake tournament by having the best internet thanks to his .com startup
    10s: sucks at overwatch
    20s: sucks at elden ring and pays someone to play his PoE2 account.

    Someone needs to dig up what he sucked at during the 00s.

      what he sucked at during the 00s.

      Probably WarCraft 3, where he couldn’t make it past the three Orc tutorial levels before going on to try DotA, which he also sucked at and got banlisted for giving first blood.

    In able bodied people if someone can’t improve at competitive games they are also completely useless at other things. The skill that makes you good at games is analytical ability, it’s the skill that allows you to learn and get better at something. If you can’t analyse a situation and recognise “I need to change x to get a better result” then you’re going to be garbage at absolutely everything.

    It’s a really basic problem solving ability and he doesn’t have it. He’s shit at everything, I guarantee it.

      i saw a bit on musk that mentioned that the first and only money he “made for himself” (lol) was building and then selling a website that was essentially the phone book but on the internet

      so if you were very generous you could say that he was adequate at relatively basic web development circa the year 2000

        Yeah, and even then the majority of the knowledge and experience from building a website back then would have almost no practical use today. I doubt he’s made any effort to keep himself up to date, either.

      The Elon Musk Unmasked (from Tech Won’t Save Us?) series emphasizes that his foremost skill is* building and perpetuating the awkward but believable geek persona around himself.

      *Hard to say if he’s got it anymore, or if American adulation of the ultrarich accounts for it all.

    Elon Musk is probably the type to STILL not realize after all these years that Overwatch is a TEAM, OBJECTIVE-BASED GAME. Not a FFA Deathmatch.

    I’m surprised Elon never quit after realizing Moira’s whole character is basically a summation of how people like him are what’s wrong with the world.

    He clearly only used tobjorn because he is the “genius engineer” character lmao.

      Surprised he didn’t pick up Moira.

      Member of Talon: pretty fashy group lead by Doomfist.

      Whole character is being a scientist who abandoned morals…Musk would love a “morals are for the weak” genius archtype.

      I looked up an overwatch tier list. Torbjorn is a damage dealer class that sets up autonomous turrets and is ranked S Tier, so the implication here is being bronze rank on a “braindead” or overpowered character means he’s bad at overwatch.

      I have not played a moba or hero shooter in 15 years tho.

      During the time this took place, Torbjorn was among the strongest characters. His kit included an automatic turret which would basically carry you, the player, if you weren’t a moron about placing it. Overwatch also has ranked and free play, where your performance in ranked matches would move you up and down the skill ladder. Bronze was the lowest tier.
