I don't think it's as easy as "just grind" to become the best. You also need to approach it with deliberation (see deliberate practice).

The hint is your words "have to improve". Simply grinding doesn't mean you'll automatically improve, or improve fast enough to ever reach the top. You need something more.

I think as long as you have the desire to win, you will naturally focus on improving. You might have plateaus and have to refocus sometimes, but in general I think more hours > more deliberation.

When you are playing games at very high volumes then you also tend to improve rapidly, since even in the 95th-99th percentiles there are usually dumb mistakes that cost you the game.
