Axis by axis

Execution7 vs 8

DX-Ball 2 leans harder on execution: Precise paddle control to keep the ball alive is twitch-core

Reads0 vs 0

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance3 vs 3

Even - both lean on variance about the same.

Optimization4 vs 5

DX-Ball 2 leans harder on optimization: Power-up management and brick clearing order rewards strategy
