I just happen to be more sensitive to differences in ping. being in califnornia, where most of the gaming servers are hosted, I get moderately good ping. playing high tick servers in CS:GO, as well as being one of the few good U.S players back when I played Cosmic Break, I've been molded into good ping. (to contest to Cosmic Break, it had a decent SEA population, and in the game lag allowed you to have lag shield, which was beneficial for melee characters to tank hits, I was incapable of that being that the servers were located in San Jose(1 hour drive from where I live). A certain patch was released which made damage hitscan serversided instead of client sided. Guess who dominated that room. nonetheless, because of home server domination, the special room became empty which contests to the performance gap between my skill and how some players "supposed" skill when in reality, they are being protected by a shield known as server lag.
its the same kind of people who think they are good, and go to a LAN event and realize they're pretty terrible, because LAN play minimizes ping to near nonexistant levels
