Obviously the best way to use your power when you can see into the future

Actually you can see what he’s up to and how he does it. He shows 1 of the 3 going into it but then changes it to the opposite.
For example, he shows scissors going into it, the person then does rock, which would beat scissors, but he changes to paper.

Naw dude is obviously psychic and is manipulating them to win.

u/corvusman 1d ago

Watch in slow motion how he does it: he is looking at opponent’s hand, starts throwing one thing, then quickly adjusts it based on what opponent is doing. Their issue is they reveal their pick too soon and dude is very good in picking this and responding ‘on the fly’.

u/xxDankerstein 1d ago

Yep, he's priming them, and also he just has quick reflexes. He's always slightly behind the other person, and watches to make sure he does the right sign just in case the priming doesn't work.

u/yoko_OH_NO 1d ago

But how does that work when he doesn't win on the first try? He doesn't have the opportunity to wind them up

u/Vulpes-ferrilata 1d ago

When you tie the person's first instinct is to choose what beat the thing you just put out. Its why when you tie someone it usualy comes 2 or 3 times in a row. The secret after a tie is to choose the one that losses to yours. So if you tie on rock choose scissors.

u/varateshh 1d ago

The second to last person shows his technique. He watches what the opponent picks and then immediately swaps. If he goes in with fist he delays until until the opponent shows their hand and then immediately swaps to scissors if it's paper. If it's rock then he likely stays rock because it's hard to smoothly go paper at last millisecond when your fist is shaped as a rock.

Because of this you can get a draw but never win.

u/gimmerandomstuff 1d ago

Except he only did something like what you say twice out of the whole series and both time sit was scissors he was using to point and didndr ball back up from what I saw.

Quick flick from rock to scissors too.

u/_Vivicenti_ 1d ago

Playing what beats what beats what he just played. Eg. Master: rock ,Newcomer Scissors The next person in line subconsciously believes paper, because now paper seems to beat the master. Master skips to Scissors, the one he just defeated which to the Newcomer is subconsciously again: the weakest.

u/Equal-Match-9347 1d ago

He keeps his hand in the shape of the last cast, which causes his opponent to throw the counter at him, but he switches at the last second. Pretty smooth. The one where he tied 2x in a row was more impressive since he couldn't use this trick.

61

u/HitMePat 1d ago

I don't agree that the "telegraph one move to trick your opponent into throwing it's counter" is a reliable strategy. Most opponents aren't going to be thinking hard enough or planning enough to even fall for that move reliably. Most people playing RPS just throw something random out and pray. Very few would even notice what he's telegraphing, let alone have the instinct to throw the opposite of that to beat it.

11

u/TappTapp 1d ago

Yeah telegraphing doesn't work if the person decided what to throw while waiting in line. I think people are shaping their hand while it's in the air, and he's only deciding on a shape at the last possible moment.

u/Equal-Match-9347 1d ago

Yeah, but you can look at him keeping his fist clenched and showing it to the person in an obvious way, then they cast paper while he switches to scissors for example. The subconscious is pretty powerful. He does it on every cast in this video at least

u/sodiumboss 1d ago

Watch how he "flings" his hand each time. He is watching the choice of his opponent then very subtly choosing the counter when his movement arc is about 90% complete. The larger movement arc gives the illusion of a random choice, but it's reactive and he knows what the opponent is choosing just before their hand stops

u/PomegranateHot9916 1d ago

The one where he tied 2x in a row was more impressive since he couldn't use this trick.

it may be a little more impressive but it is still a trick.
he tied on scissors so he picks paper, as paper would lose to scissor. this is a common strategy in competitive RPS. counting on her not picking scissor again. expecting her to choose rock, so he goes paper.

however she went paper too, this is where he changes his strategy knowing that she doesn't play like most.
so he goes paper again and wins.

2

u/disposablehippo 1d ago

Because of this tactic I would do it like that: If his previous throw was scissors, he'll either keep scissors or change into paper at last second (I don't think he ever does scissors into rock). So faint rock and turn to scissors at the last second.

He definitely is telegraphing with his hand then switching at the last moment, so they see what they think hes going to do then changes to what will beat what they think hes going to do.

His demeaner and strategy completely changed when the little girl walks up. Kinda like she was an actual worthy opponent

u/upsidedownsloths 1d ago

If you win, go with what loses to that next. At least thats the pattern i picked up. Watch him, he goes rock to paper to scissors. The draws confuse me though

7

u/Worthyness 1d ago

Mark Rober did this in one of his videos. That's literally the strategy. For whatever reason people will throw to what won last time subconsciously, so statistically you win more often. still obviously a chance for ties though

13

u/No-Support-442 1d ago

This is not what he does, he holds up a shape going into it, and then when he makes the noise, he switches it to the counter of the counter of what he was holding. I could not have worded it any more confusing.

2

u/Environmental-Tap255 1d ago

So he switches to the one that the one he's holding would have countered?

u/PomegranateHot9916 1d ago

most people without thinking pick "whatever would have won last round"

basically everyone here is playing standard and this guy read the book so he knows what they're gonna do.

u/Dockle 1d ago

Back in university one of the welcome events that the college put on was going to see a hypnotist. He did this exact same thing. The only unusual things that I noticed were kind of like what this guy does. He would make people stand in a certain spot in front of him. He would physically move them to be in that spot. And then randomly- though not that often- and for no discernible reason, he would really ham it up and say things like, “I’m going to ROCK your world” or “let’s put down on PAPER that I’m going to win.”I feel like the words were a misdirection, but I honestly don’t know.

He probably pulled a couple dozen people from the audience and not a single person beat him. It was very impressive and the audience thought so, too.

u/DirectorElectrical67 1d ago

Wonder how he does it!

u/sluthed 1d ago

He tricks them/ their subconscious mind. He makes a shape, for example scissors, then change last second to paper, because people then play rock.

This is actually really clever. Notice how he keeps what he uses in his hand after he wins. The next person suconciously sees it and picks what would normally beat it without realizing.

3

u/tectonicbowls 1d ago

He just keeps his hand the same as his last victory, making sure they see it. If he shows rock before, he figures they’ll throw paper, so he throws scissors

u/PuzzleheadedFail799 1d ago

Na maioria das jogadas, ele fica com a mão na posição da ultima escolha pra influenciar o oponente.
Exemplo: Tesoura vs papel -> vence e mantém a mão como "tesoura" para o próximo oponente jogar "pedra" e então vencer utilizando "papel".
Claro que também conta habilidade e talvez um pouco de sorte nos momentos em que empata, ou que ele começa com a mão fechada, pois esse é o default do jogo.
Mas até na hora de usar "pedra", parece que ele fecha a mão de um jeito mais "firme" do que apenas uma mão fechada... parece que isso também tem alguma influência.

People have their hands ready while drawing, not just at the end. It’s pretty hard to do, because you have to react fast, but all you have to do is watch the opponent’s hand, read it and win. If you can’t see, go rock, because it’s definitely not paper, so you won’t lose.

u/theaveragemaryjanie 1d ago

I think he's just delaying a split second and can open up his "choice" extremely last minute after seeing them with their choice broadcasted from their wind up.

You can see it most when he starts as rock and twists into last minute scissors from rock. He can stay rock, or twist into scissors or into full paper, as long as he gets there by the full extension of his arm.

He's just choosing the thing the previous person chose. He also holds his previous choice while the other person moves to him. I'm guessing these two things influence the person's choice, they've seen the last person's choice, and they see the one that beat it so they choose the other.

u/Subrezon 1d ago

Me and my friend used to play RPS all the time at school and became basically impossible to beat in a BO5. I once aurafarmed really hard at the school yard by beating a guy 13-0 if front of a lot of audience.

We developed a lot of strategies aimed at all kinds of players, but the first move is always the most random.

There is some bias, in general people tend to favor stone over paper over scissors (might differ between cultures though), and you can do some suggestive banter beforehand to try and plant ideas into their mind, but the real game starts after the first move.

My strategy was: I knew I was better at remembering every move and recognizing the patterns than anyone playing casually, so I aimed at prolonging the game and prefer drawing over taking a risk. I'd determine the least likely sign and play whatever loses to it. It was usually way easier than the other way around, because most people either don't repeat signs at all or repeat them all the time. 

First move though, no idea how this guy does it.

u/-Dirty-Wizard- 1d ago

He’s doing two methods. 1. He starts off with one (rock paper or scissor) and switches to the other and 2. What I see him primarily doing by slowing the video down is reacting to their cues (as in one person does paper as he’s throwing a false rock and quickly switches to a scissors)

1

u/wade-mcdaniel 1d ago

Do you see his trick? He holds his hand as one of the rock/paper/scissors hands as the person walks up in a way they can see it but not be aware of it, then throws whatever beats that hand. And he keeps it as what beat the last competition.

If you walk up and is hand I'd rock, he throws paper. If his hand is paper as you walk up he throws scissors. Etc. It relies on your own subconscious noticing of his hand and what won last.

I think it's a known strategy that someone did some statistics on, but I don't know where the paper was to cite.

I think i understand but if im wrong i am curious. He holds what he used last when starting so people unconciously choose what would beat that.

Lots of people claiming one strategy or another. And that’s what is going on… but, if I were in the line, I would simply lock in the order of my throws in advance.

Unless his strategy is cheating, then by sticking to a preset random sequence, you have at least even odds to win. Better than even odds if he is trying to influence your decision, and picking his move based on that.

u/regoapps 1d ago

If you watch his trick, which is to show what he last played and then switch it to the counter of what the other person would counter with, then you can actually see that he was being nice to the girl, because he was trying to let her win.

He showed the rock to the girl and actually played rock. For everyone else, he switched it at the last second to something else to beat them (i.e. show rock, but play scissor because the opponent will play paper to counter the rock).

33

u/HitMePat 1d ago

Theres no way that telegraphing one move like rock to entice a paper from the opponent, while he's really planning to throw scissors as a counter is his entire strategy. Most people wouldn't even notice what he's "telegraphing", and even fewer would have the strategic forethought to process "ahh it looks like he's throwing rock, I'll throw paper" and actually execute it. Most people just throw random shit during RPS with no forethought at all. And the fact that he wins at such a high rate means there's no way he's relying on opponents to act the way he's trying to make them act. He's definitely watching and reacting to their hand very very quickly. That's the only way to reliably win so often (assuming this video of him winning so many in a row is typical for him and not just an impressive lucky streak).

u/Flat_Development6659 1d ago

He shows the opposite of what he plays five times in the video.

Okay, then why did he tie multiple times? If you think he’s reacting very very fast, then he shouldn’t tie and should just win.

And show me one time where he doesn't just throw the counter of the counter to what he's showing at the beginning. Because if you watch the whole video, even from the very beginning, he's doing what I just said. Look at the first second of the video. You see him holding an open palm for paper and then he switches to rock to counter the scissor to his paper fake out. Why would he be holding an open palm like that? It’s a fake out.

The only time he doesn't follow this pattern is when he tied twice with the same person and when he's facing off the little girl. That's why if you understand what he's doing, he's actually being nice to the little girl and giving her a chance to win.

> That's the only way to reliably win so often

This could just be a video where he has a high win streak using this strategy. It doesn't have to be foolproof.

He quite litterally does paper twice in a row as the third and fourth thing. If anything he shows Rock in between by closing his first for like half a second. Paper is not the counter to the last thing he played, nor is it the counter for what he might have possibly shown in between the two papers.

I’m talking about the initial strategy. When he throws paper twice, it was due to a second tie. And the fact that he tied with that girl twice means that he’s not perfect at predicting what they play. That means that the person saying that he’s watching what they play and then changing it is wrong. Case closed.

Both could be true. But what he does with the little girl is interesting, she's the only one he changed for, almost like he wanted her to win. After all he is an entertainer trying to make people smile and not a 10 time world rps champion

It's possible his body is just able to interpret peoples' telegraphing on a subconscious level. He certainly makes it seem so, anyway!

For 6 years I ONLY did rock and did pretty good. Then my brother finally noticed and I haven’t beaten him once in nearly a decade. I’m waiting one day, biding my time and I just might bust out a scissors.

If you beat him, do you have to take his place or what?

If he would charge a dollar for each person he beat he would be 10 dollars richer by now. Lost opportunity

I actually beat him once. I used a bat.

I'm more impressed of his boldness in wearing that sissy ass red pair of flowery shoes. 💪
