One thing is not to know all the *grandmaster strategies*.
Another thing is to play tic-tac-toe while others play chess.
Casuals are not so rainbow and butterflies themselves too. While it's ok not to be a *top tier* player, it's not ok to go into high end content and expect being carried because you're lazy since you've decided to play your own game.
