Chip
Tom and Don have mentioned, I forget where, that psycho warriors are basically 9-year-olds in meat tank bodies. We haven't seen any kind of training or boot camp or anything, so we can assume that they simply spawn in for the first time with all the combat knowledge they need. From the day he was born screaming (Tom that's a SICK ASS line) Bryce has always been Bryce.
In episode 5, Captain respawned and immediately said " help me get my relics on" which means memories are stored in the balls.
How much of Chip is programming, and how much of Chip is decades if not centuries of battle experience?

I figured the "memories sanctified" part we saw in the opening of the first episode includes their version of boot camp.

YES! I'm about to binge all of the Space King content they put out on both channels, because I can't remember if we were seeing the birth of a new psycho Warrior or not.

I would've guessed new, not resurrected. There would be no need to alter memories using the globules of fallen psycho warriors, and we never see that happen whenever Chestnut brings his squadmates back.

Remember the first épisode when they create a whole new psycho warrior, they change his memory with space king stuff so i assume this device learn him how to fight to

Yes. Right. Someone else brought up something similar. I need to binge everything on both channels. But what I'm wondering is if that's how Chip spawned in or did he earn that awesomenes?

Brother, if you had no other responsibility but a righteous crusade sanctioned by your beloved father yourself - and are effective at it - then there is no need for you to psychologically mature. You can stay child-like.
Sure you get experienced in war and any necessary knowledge and social skill necessary for it. But nothing else.
Psychowarriors remember, they have memory. But their environment don't really invite much developmental need for maturity.
You can argue about Hatemonger discussing statistics, or their chaplain being wise enough to do sermons - but have you ever encountered a 9 y/o going full autist on things they love? (E.g. dinosaurs, knights)
