(Random title is random)
I started to notice something a while back, and some people in chat have experienced the same thing.
I seem to be consistently better at Dust (and all games in general) after having too little sleep. In other words, when I'm really tired I get really good.
I've just been curious at to why this is, if anyone has studied in the right areas to know the answer.

Same goes with something to drink.

Get drunk and you play worse. |

This. You only think you're better because your judgement is impaired due to lack of sleep.
When I play as a sniper, I'm more likely to be nearer to the opponents redline than my own.

I found that with the TV off, playing one-handed while making a PBJ, my KDR skyrockets.

Then explain why I always shatter my records on Osu when I'm this tired.

Ok, I'll give it a 'scientific' attempt at an explanation.
If you're tired or 'under the influence' the body reacts by pumping out neural transmitters to sharpen your mind to compensate for the stress your brain is already under.
So if you're only tipsy or a little tired then the maths work in your favour. You've sort of 'tricked' your mind into releasing bio-chemicals that will enhance your skills, but if you get an more tired or drunk, the mats start to work in your disfavour again.
This is at best an educated guess at what's happening. |
