Rendered irrelevant..

I want you to, for a moment, to think about playing a game of Monopoly, except in this game, that combination of skill, talent and luck that helps earn your success in games, as in life, has been rendered irrelevant....

I am not sure what " Rendered irrelevant" means in this context.

Anyone can answer?

 

[Rendered irrelevant means that it doesn't have anything to do with winning the game anymore.  Skill, talent and luck would normally help you win the game, but imagine that these qualities have no affect on the game, that winning and losing is decided by something else entirely.]

"Rendered irrelevent" means that apart from skills, talents and luck, other issues also play very import roles in your way to success. In my opinion, this short passage intends to convey an idea that not only extrinsic(outside) issues can affect your success, intrinsic(inside) issues can also cast a great deal on your journey. 

Hope that makes sense to you!

Hi Asako! Just like you, I want to make friends here to improve my language skills. In my case, Japanese (I'm a complete beginner). I also started learning Spanish and I saw you are also learning it. I would love to have you as my partner language. I can talk to you about the Brazilian culture and even help you to learn Portugues (if you wish). Here's my skype: marcosmilton. Feel free to addd me. ;)
