I totally agree.

1. You can find extra-responsive low latency LAN cards too for totally reasonable prices like $200, to go well with your $500/month fiber optic connection.

2. I tweaked my Q3 so that it always runs at 500+ fps. Otherwise it's basically unplayable. Same goes for CS. If it ever drops below 100 (like going 99 for a split second), you need to add some more video cards or at least drop all settings until everything looks like it's made of stacked boxes. Pros do that all the time. It's the ONLY way to roll in style.

3. Again, buy whichever is proer at the time. If you have the G9 and something insignificantly better comes along, you HAVE to throw your mouse away and get the new one. Can't let the competition get the best of you.

4. Also agreed, uncomfortable hand positions are the best. Whatever makes your hand feel like it's gonna get paralyzed, THAT's how you should use it. I've seen some russian gamers use their mouse sideways (no joke).

5. Anything over $50 will do. If you can't find anything over $50 just use a mirror or plain glass (mirror is better).

6. 2ms response time is A MUST. You can't just be waiting for your screen to change pixel coloring in 4ms, you'd be long dead by then. Long dead. Long. Dead.

7. Just stop hanging out with friends and/or girls, or studying and exercising, and you'll find that you have plenty of time left.

Seriously though, look for replays of finals from different events like WCG, ESWC with teams like eMg, noa, SK, mym, Emulate, etc. There are bound to be replays somewhere. Youtube videos are usually crap, unless they're taken from serious games/tournaments. Take that solo guy for instance, his aim is pretty sick but there are some situations where the opponents are simply retarded. Not to mention that I have friends who are faster with the artic than he is. You can see his scope that's just newbish (lulz).

USE DSL over cable in terms of response dsl is usually low in ping (depending on distance) cable is constant and usually is higher (if you live in a city chances are dsl over cable) of course fiber optic connection is best speed of light >speed of electricity but most of us cant spend 500$ a month of course hell if you spend 200 of a lan card why the fuck not.

Buy a good mobo (those lan cards more or less just do this but fuck nice mobo > nice lan card imo) hell mine off loads most of the Internet shit to my MCP which also free up my cpu.

Also i can prioritize packets from certain programs

Any frames over your refresh rate are dropped really you don't need more then your max refresh rate which even on the best crt is 120

Tape up your cords so they hang but don't get in your usual movement (makes the mouse feel less drag on a good mouse pad and a good mouse feels like your mouse is nothing) at lest with my mx518 which weights like a stock optical mouse (nothing) (my g9 is for work mostly macro ftw cuz it takes a special grip it favors claw (just using your fingers, most people use their full plam) and those who don't pick up mice also it's lazer

mouse terms Optical > lazer its more accurate to fast movements also cs isn't played on large resolutions as far as i am aware

if you buy lcd make sure you check for grey to grey response times 2ms is a must there (that is where most ghosting is) yes if you don't know ms is variants grey to grey off to on (black to white)
low black to white is very good though it means how fast a pixel can change full spectrum and yes grey to grey can be slower then black to white buy lower grey to grey over black to white

Buy a good head set one that doesn't feel like shit.

*note* he never asked for advice like this so atlest give correct advise, not opinion basied

i'm pretty sure it's not. 1.3 was when they start to change the bunny jump thingy... and the CPL was way before that.

not many people really know what they are talking about, I've played with and against storm/warden/frod on lan a few times and storms definately the 2nd best aimer on coL to frod, without a doubt. I grew up playin games with corey tr1p dodd of coL/chicago chimera now, and he'll admit to you storms aim was better than wardens/sunmans/his.
