Try this example
An edge hit sends the ball at a different angle. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Read the matching step again.
Where a round can go wrong
Track its landing point, not only its current x-coordinate. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
