This session will emphasize the value of a strong competitive mindset and what it takes to find new confidence in your gameplay or tackle your relationship to the game and goals you want to focus on to reach that next level. As someone who faces losing matchups and overcomes unfavorable odds, my results have shown that there are some things that can be separated from the game on-screen and taken from having a strong competitive mindset. I have taken what many consider to be the worst in the game and have defeated globally and locally ranked players in multiple Smash games. Mentality can also be covered in other time slots, simply include "mentality" in your goals if you decide to book a different amount of time than listed here.
