Dielan Oh no man, I'm unsure if you watched the video but it even shows and Charlie points out "if youve ever touched an ARPG you'd know this BASIC thing." which is mana potion. I doubt he even played the "tutorial" on the first way to town as it pesters you about potions and mechanics. he probably learned "wasd is moving, dodge is this button but you shouldnt need it, left and right click does this, you want to press right click then hold left" or some shit.
I hate it.
But yeah imagine thinking you could fake being top of a "Hardcore" ladder and not get absolutely exposed.
