So THAT'S what the player survey was for. Very very cool.

I still can't believe the crazy level of skill players have these days. It seems like just yesterday when the combos on this video were things people miiight hit on their own on a video, after a thousand tries. Now people bust them on command in competition under pressure. Incredible.

I also liked the explanation screens between shots. Thanks for this vid.[/i]

How does this game work?

No, I don't play soccer. Yes, there are competitions. 4 years. Lots of practice.

During each round, there are 4 combos that are randomly generated. Each person in the competition has 4 attempts to hit 2 of those combos. If they don't, then they are out. (If you have three misses, you can link two of the combos together on your fourth attempt and still move on.) After each round, the difficulty of the combos go up. The player that lasts the longest wins.

Supercombo! Jorden hit it. That was super cool. Did we have it only on the last try though? Could they have tried a supercombo each time to save turns? I think last try is nice.
