Seeing it is a "brain-enhancing drug" i wonder if it improves gaming performance? Like faster reflexes, alertness and so on. Makes sense to me but i wonder what you guys think?

HUGE NO NO! In my case,I saw teens under this drug,and made them a completely idiotic type of person,recently there are riots happpening between studies. For gamer's case,this is not a "brain-enhancing drug,it's a" brain-washing drug" :!:IMPORTANT!:!: DON'T DO DRUGS! It's not cool to smoke,people can have the same health problems eventhough they're not smokers themselves

Nicotine is a stimulant. So, I don't think it's odd to think it could improve gaming performance for a short period of time.

Shows that he's the kid! Nicotine users brain works 10-30% faster, so.. not a dumb question. I'm not defending tobacco or anything either, it's gross as hell. But a snus sometimes feels good.

Nicotine does improve motor-skills.....i.e. why so many baseball players chew tobacco. It will also kill you.

I will likely give a much more elaborate answer to that... kids who lived in the same country as I am are proven victims to nicotine overdose,as they were actually unaware of the grand risk a teaspoon of nicotine can have. The last statement means that it's either smoking or not,it will kill them chemically

Same. I used to be the biggest pothead you would ever meet and gaming wasn't even that fun while high anymore. Pretty dysphoric actually. THC can be a very dysphoric drug, don't believe me? Google. "THC is strangely dysphoric considering it's popularity"

Also; http://psychcentral.com/news/2013/07/02/long-term-pot-use-tied-to-less-dopamine-which-may-help-explain-less-motivation/56728.html

that's probably why my ADHD/ADD get's worse too.

nicotine is a stimulant that increases brain function... so yea.

Though, probably not in any major capacity.

I know that coffee combined with weed really makes me focus on the game and think things through.

Well yea weed generally has the effect of a depressant to my knowlowedge, but a particularly stressed out and high strung individual could probably benefit in terms of of relaxation and focus in the same vein as a stiff drink.

I don't know, nor do I care.

I certainly as hell am not going to start smoking just to improve my gaming skills, even if that were true.

TC was talking about reflexes. You don't have time to "think things through" in a fast paced game. I hate playing while high mostly because my twitch aiming reflexes are slowed down. I do play safer and analyze things and even predict certain things but I'm just not as fast as usual.

It probably does, but one would think it's not a significant difference.

Dude....read up on that stuff man. That stuff leads to oropharyngeal carcinoma. Sure its safer than smoking cigarettes in the same way that playing with C3 explosives is safer than playing with C2, I still wouldnt recommend it. Its less carcinogenic than cigarettes but it is still carcinogenic. Lets say from a scale of 1-10 on carcinogenicity cigarettes are a 10, well snus would be a 5. Yeah, thats a lot better than a 10, but a 5 is still pretty damn high. So I think the appropriate way to phrase your comment would be "Its less toxic" rather than "healthier"
