Comment on Ask HN: Should professional gamers be screened for performance enhancing drugs?parent

Comments

There's also markets for gaming gear that has lower latency and modified gaming gear like console controllers with extra buttons or scriptable buttons.

I think the gear would give more of an advantage over drugs since it would be more consistent.

Many professional tournaments have everyone playing on the exact same hardware for this reason. You bring your keyboard/mouse and everything else is identical between competitors.

Great point, thanks for your input!
