Denying established efficiency is the mark of a scrub. Especially if one is unwilling to explore the established method themselves because they're an individual. That's not how team games work, and that's not how competitive play works.

If you play to win, you do whatever it takes to win and take advantage of any knowledge you can get your hands on and try to at least be efficient at all necessary aspects of gameplay. If you think you play to win but don't do the above, then you're probably a scrub.
