Concerning the general "skill" remarks absurdity; whether said in jest, ignorance, or ***hattery, THE FACT IS that players familiarizing themselves with game mechanics, strategies, practicing situational awareness, and any other factors that sum up "skill" can and do leverage greater performance with -any- AT.
I think most here are smart enough to know this, if not admit it.
However, I certainly wouldn't argue that skill can leverage more for some ATs than others...
