so many things. things like reading patterns and enemy formations, keeping your eyes on the action instead of staring at your ships'hitbox as you dodge, being able to do precise movements, knowing when to micro and when to macro dodge.

it's actually a skill, the more you play shmups the better you become at memorizing level layouts and enemy formations. And you'll start thinking in terms of creating a route, instead of just reacting on the fly.
