Terrible Terrible (hand) Damage

I've been gaming since starcraft came out in 98. Nothing ever too serious. I mainly play fps games and fall back on starcraft when ever something got boring. Since starcraft 2 came out, I've been playing it like crazy. With the ladder system and replays I feel that hackers and cheater are not as likely to show up in the higher matches. I enjoy being a competitive diamond player but I think I have to stop.

With fps games most movement is side to side. Looking around for enemies. Sometimes you look up or down to find someone but not often. In starcraft I look in all directions pretty equally overall. This is killing my thumb joint. Left, right, up are all fine but to go down I curl my fingers instead of moving my whole arm and my thumb joint is now having issues with this.


Anyone else run into this or am I alone in my pain?

Sounds like RSI. Go see a doctor before you do more damage to your hand.

There's been a few threads on how to prevent RSI.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=134466

maybe try doing exercises first before going forth with mass games.
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Get a bigger mouse? Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 would be my suggestion

just start doing push ups on your fingers, when you will be able to do 3 finger one hand push up it will be better and better (yes it is possible)
