Competitive video games shouldn't have secret knowledge imo. Counter-Strike gets a pass because the game is simple enough to begin with. Like obviously since you feel the gun walking up, you'll try pulling down.
The "king" of knowledge-based gameplay is AoE2:DE (modern remake of Age of Empires 2). The old game was complex, but people learned it once. Now they keep adding or modifying civs to add in gimmicky mechanics.

It seems more common behaviour today, but remember CS came out in the era of zero-recoil arena shooters. I once made my friends play UT after several rounds of CS and then they struggled to play CS again due to UT's friendlier recoil (complete lack thereof)
