3 AM gaming luck or skill?
I’ve asked myself this so many times after having crazy win streaks late at night. Part of me thought, “Okay, maybe I’m just matching with less skilled players,” but another part wondered if there was something about that hour that made me play better. The article https://tradeflock.com/why-3-am-may-be-your-best-online-gaming-time/ really connected the dots for me. It explained how fewer distractions, quieter surroundings, and even certain brainwave patterns can actually make you sharper in those hours. And honestly, it tracks — I make faster decisions and don’t overthink as much. So now I see it as a mix of both luck (softer lobbies) and skill (better mental state). Either way, I’m not complaining.

Thanks for the perspective — it’s reassuring to hear it’s not just random luck. I think I’ll pay more attention to how I feel and perform at that time. Might even keep a little log to see if the pattern holds up.
