The Wow Moment
A 14-year-old uploads a practice video, taps a player, and watches as their shadow overlay reveals they consistently drift 3 meters out of position during transitions—then peels back layers to discover this is caused by a cognitive pattern visible only in the inner 'decision doll' that shows hesitation when receiving under pressure.
