For example, I am terrible at Super Meat Boy, but just playing it has really improved how I play platformers and games that need faster imputs overall.

Dead by Daylight. Spending so much time chasing or being chased by other players has definitely improved my tracking/flanking abilities in other games, as well as pathing and following players audibly. I may not be a great shot, but I know exactly where you’re going and how to cut you off.

Also utilizing mindgame strategies can really fuck with people in other games.

Edit: Also also, I don’t get tilted nearly as easily as I used to. DBD sucked all the rage out of me.

Edit 2: My first point also applies defensively, in that I know how to more effectively lose someone if necessary.
