The context of the following conversation is Skylar took the offensive play because it seemed more prudent to be aggressive against the opponent.:
Skylar says I won the chess match yesterday. I'm so happy..
The friend responds That's great. So are you still in the tournament?.
Skylar responds Yes, still in. I don't play for another week, though..
The friend responds What did you do to win? Anything special?.
Skylar responds I just went on the offensive and became aggressive because she was passive..
