I know some speedrunners that are legitimately pretty smart, like Werster or pannenkoek2012. Particularly the people that come up with the theory, routes, and strategies.

The vast majority of speedrunners are just dumbasses who mindlessly grind a premade route that somebody else made

>>9300285
this. theory of speedrunning is pretty interesting and applicable to optimizations irl. if these people get off games, they'd literally make millions irl.

That's a false dilemma. Pannenkoek is a successful mathematician and particularly popular runners like Werster make enough money just from streaming to live off of.

They may not be making "millions", but being smart really have any strong correlation with making money anyway, apart from extremely stupid people being extremely poor.

230k net worth is still poor. Do you have better graph?

Now imagine if those dumbasses invested their time into mindlessly memorizing things somebody else told them, and you're basically here >>9299833
