Not really, it's like playing Counter Strike with your friend, but you're a total noob and they're world champion. You try your best and yet, for you to have any semblance of fun, the other person had to play only with a knife, one hand behind their back and picking their nose with the other. It's just never gonna be as fun as if everybody is trying their best and are all on the same playing field.


Yes but climbing isn't inherently competitive. Counterstrike you can't win without someone losing. Climbing, everyone can win.
