<b>Hot take: "intros are dead" is the laziest advice in this niche.</b>
What's dead is the <i>throat-clearing</i> intro, the 8 seconds of "hey guys welcome back." But a real cold open, a 3-second promise of the payoff, is doing more retention work than your entire midroll. Killing intros entirely just means you stranded viewers who needed one beat of orientation before the chaos.
You didn't fix the intro. You amputated context and called it pacing.
Who's wrong here, you or me?
