    I guess I’m a bit confused what is meant by battle of wits, is it supposed to mean, like two super geniuses going at each other? Or?

    Because there are 7 year olds that would wipe the floor with me in chess, but get absolutely sent into the shadow realm in every other category mental or physical lol

    Chess is a game and being good at it, maybe means you are disciplined? Patient? But intelligent, not really, not any more than any other average person or gamer.

      Ah, but if you were a movie-level genius you’d be brilliant at chess because all movie-level geniuses are brilliant at chess. Up until they fail to notice a Queen sacrifice play.
