Portrait

You are the reason your team speaks a common language at all. While the others are still asking why their mic is crackling, you have already set up noise suppression, tested the frame rate and compared everyone's sensitivity on the side.

For you, winning is teamwork plus tech. You want everything to be spot on: smooth frames, clean communication, no stutter at the decisive moment. When something goes wrong, you look for the cause, not someone to blame. And you usually find it.

Your clan appreciates that, even if hardly anyone says so. With every new game you are the first one with a list of settings in Discord.

Strengths

  • You get the last few frames per second out of any PC.
  • In the team you are the calm one who solves problems instead of commenting on them.
  • You learn new games quickly because you understand how they work under the hood.

Pitfalls

  • Sometimes you spend longer optimising than you then actually play.
  • When your teammates are not as precise as you, it can really get on your nerves.
  • New drivers on tournament day are a test of courage you do not have to pass every time.

Examples of the way of playing, not a list of what runs on which PC.

The right setup

Monitor
144 to 240 Hz in Full HD or WQHD. Every frame counts for you, and a fast monitor makes the difference visible.
Graphics card
A solid mid-range card is enough, because you turn the details down in shooters anyway. More important is that it holds your monitor's frame rate steadily.
Processor
At high frame rates a fast processor is often more important than the graphics card. Better not to save here.
Memory and storage
16 GB of RAM is enough, 32 GB is nice when Discord, browser and recording run alongside.
Accessories
Headset with a good microphone, a light mouse and a large mouse pad. Your team hears you, and you hit your shots.
Software
Discord with noise suppression, a frame counter such as the Steam overlay and a frame rate cap just below your monitor's refresh rate.
