"Alright, now, Emboldening of Scarlet Demon is an action-packed game to start with, but when you're up against this baby here, a lot of rookies freeze up and get sacked. You don't have a hitbox here, right? So you have to keep it steady because look, here, here, and especially here, you can run into some problems and BAM - you're done, game over. The best thing this player can do right now is stay in this column here, bob and weave, stay focused, and he should be able to make it to the end zone. Bob?"

"That's true, John, but there are times when you need speed, like with this baby here."
"See, with this, you get attacked from this direction, and they don't stop coming. What you gotta do is move quickly, and know that you've got a bit of wiggle room. A lot of rookies think that they have to give it a wide berth, and then they get cornered and sacked. Once you know you can squeeze by, it gets easier to run for a touchdown. Back to you, John."
Myschi:
I love both of you so much right now.
Marin The Magus:
Would you two marry me? pleeeeease? xD xD xD
Tengukami:
"Thanks, Bob. Alright, now over here we got Double Spoilers, and this is gonna put offense on the offensive. Unlike your regular plays, what the player has to do is get close to the opposing team. And look at her - she looks pretty mean! Now, defense is going to come at you with these falling shape thingies and it looks pretty tough, because up here, look - it's all packed together! There's no hole for the offense, and that normally spells bad news BUT, whoosh, down here? Wide open spaces. Offense can stay alive if it hangs back and relies on long forward passing and ZOOM, touchdown."
