I just got in an arguement over how pinball is a game of skill and not a game of luck. I agree, pinball has a level of just plain luck, and the game was designed to take your money, but skill will win every time. I also understand that there are certain variables that must be considered between different machines, but overall if you have skill, it will prevail. I say the unpredictability and challenge of a pinball machine is what drives us to play more and become a better player from pure skill. The other side says that it is a game of chance and cannot be completely mastered due to such things as pop bumpers and sling shot bumpers. I say that the ball will become unpredictable only if you dont posses the skill to keep the ball from striking such things in an uncontrolled manner. Whats your take?
