I also love a good enemies to lovers or enemies to friends. It just makes for the perfect tension in the beginning and a satisfying ending! I'm also a sucker for the genius protagonist trope when the hero has photographic memory or something and just thinks miles ahead of others. Like in Suits or High Potential.

Enemies to lovers/friends is such a fun and reliable trope! I think of the genius-with-a-photographic-memory as the Sherlock Holmes trope, since that seems to be the template for other characters.

Yes you are right that's totally based on Sherlock!
