I started watching this a couple weeks ago since I play the game about once a year and I was curious if there was some sort of “system” to beat it but ultimately I stopped it after a minute or so because knowing it too deeply would kill all the joy from the game. It is interesting though how important the middle column is, I always suspected but it was nice to hear there’s some math behind it.
