hm... not necessarily. If you're talented at piano, let's say reading anything given to you, then you can play music right there. I mean there could be one or two practices before you nail it if you have the talent I specified but you'll get it faster than others none the less.
For toribash, let's say you're talented in that (I know all of you are
). But for this talent let's say you understand how the joints work to make you execute the moves you'd like. If you've just started then you'd get from a white belt to a green belt in know time, seeing as you'll most likely be in the white belt server begginer servers. So there you are at an orange belt, then maybe you'd see how it's tougher against the semi-pros, well then you can use your specail talent and make moves to win against them. Sure you'd lose some in both levels of dificulty but you have that special talent of yours to help you.
I'd actually think you'd get experience with this talent once you've actually gotten used to the black belts. Assuming they all didn't win by luck or they actually try.
I'm assuming with talent you'd actually get things faster than others which will give you the upper hand and may take only a little work.
