Top Reasons: Why You Should Never Play Flex Position

Alright, listen up, young’uns. Let me tell you somethin’ ’bout this here “flex” thing in them video games. You should never, and I mean NEVER, play flex. It’s a load of hogwash, I tell ya.

Now, I don’t know much about these fancy computer games, but I’ve heard enough from my grandkids to know a thing or two. They’re always yellin’ about “flex picks” and “fillin’ roles.” Sounds like a whole lotta work to me.

What is this “Flex” Anyway?

From what I gather, “flex” means you gotta be ready to play anythin’. One minute you’re supposed to be shootin’ things, the next you’re healin’ folks. It’s like bein’ a jack-of-all-trades, but master of none. And that, my friends, ain’t no good.

• First off, you ain’t gonna be good at everythin’. You might be a whiz at slingin’ spells, but clumsy as a cow when it comes to swingin’ a sword. So why would you wanna do both? Makes no sense, right?
• Second, it just ain’t fair. You’re always stuck playin’ whatever nobody else wants to play. You’re like the poor sap who gets stuck cleanin’ up after the party. Nobody appreciates ya, and you don’t get to have no fun.

It Messes with Your Head, They Say

My grandson, he’s always complainin’ about his “SR.” Somethin’ about his rank in the game. He says when you play flex, your SR goes down. And you know what? I believe him. You can’t be good at everythin’, and that’s a fact.

Think of it like this: if you’re always switchin’ from one thing to another, you never get a chance to really learn how to do anythin’ well. You’re spreadin’ yourself too thin, like butter on too much bread. And what happens then? You end up a mess, that’s what.

It’s like plantin’ a garden, see? You can’t just throw a bunch of seeds in the ground and expect ’em all to grow. You gotta pick what you wanna grow, give it the right amount of water and sunshine, and take care of it. Same thing with these games. You gotta pick your role, stick with it, and get good at it.

Team Trouble, That’s What It Is

And don’t even get me started on playin’ with a team. I heard them grandkids talkin’ ’bout “four-man premades.” Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me. Apparently, if you got four folks together, and you’re the unlucky fifth, well, they can just boss you around. Make you play whatever they want.

That ain’t right. Everybody should get to play what they want, what they’re good at. It’s like tryin’ to bake a cake with everyone throwin’ in different ingredients. You ain’t gonna get a cake, just a big mess. Teamwork is about workin’ together, not bossin’ each other around.

Just Stick to What You Know

So, let me tell you somethin’ straight. If you wanna have fun, and if you wanna win, don’t play flex. Find somethin’ you like, somethin’ you’re good at, and stick with it. Don’t let nobody tell you otherwise.

It’s like my mama always said, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” And flexin’ is just askin’ for trouble. Don’t be a fool, stick to your guns. And if them youngsters try to tell you different, just tell ’em that old lady so-and-so said so.

In the end, playin’ games is supposed to be fun. But this flexin’ business just sounds like a whole lot of stress and not much fun. So do yourself a favor, and stay away from it. You’ll thank me later.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go make some supper. At least I know how to cook one thing well, and that’s all that matters.
