Casuals need not apply

Are you a true gamer?

Thanks reddit!

i want to fuck that true gamer

No because I know how to properly use a mouse and keyboard.

>holding your mouse like a retard and getting carpal tunnel
the mark of a casual

No because I use a massive cloth mousepad cause im not a poor fag

Honestly

Who is this qte?

I used to have "the mark" but eventually had to get one of those mousepads with the gel thing at the bottom because I started developing signs of carpal tunnel and/or tendinitis. Shit sucks when your fingers are falling asleep while you're trying to game.

carpal tunnel will be the equivalent of losing your arm in vietnam in 30 years

I swear to god Billy, if I catch you wrist aiming like a casual again I'll disown you.

I used to have one.

Then I got a trackball.

It's called bad fucking posture you nigger

If you got the mark you don't have a comfy setup.

Weirdly enough, my desk isn't made of sand paper.

I hope gloves will replace mouse one day

>moving your entire arm so you fuck your shoulders

baka

got the mark

do i fit in now?

I'm on my computer for the majority of every day and I don't have it. What type of setup causes that to happen? I use the fingertip grip and there's no mark to be seen.

Welcome to the club bro.

palm grip without moving your arm

wrist just rubs back and forth on your mouse pad or whatever

Forgot to post the image.

wrist aiming is faster and more precise

>mark of a gamer
>the typical place for a practice hickey

>getting carpal tunnel from using the mouse
>having weak bones and muscles
>my joints hurt

I've been playing shitty PC games for 20 years straight and I've NEVER gotten carpal tunnel.
What am I doing wrong?

>there are handlets who can do the palm grip

The mouse grip depends on what kind of mouse you have. You can see it in the pic too. The first one is a bulky one where you can perfectly rest your entire hand on the whole body while the second one is flatter and a palm grip would be very uncomfortabel.

I bought a flat mouse recently and was surprised how I was basically forcecd into a finger grip although I basically used a hand grip all my life. After some time it was just as good though and I got used to it quickly.

I guess you dont have weak bones and muscles.

Of course I've been master race since 1997.

I realized I was getting this while I was still in highschool so I not rest my wrist on the edge of the table and keep my what ever that is off any surfaces.
I also don't grip my mouse ham fisted.

Man my left wrist is fucked for some unknown reason.
Bending it up and down hurts as of a week now and it doesn't feel flexible anymore.
Throbs at times too.
My right hand is perfectly fine though.
I have to check it out if it's persisting, I don't even play video games anymore.

I have already given up on my right hand.
I have already accepted the fact that it's not gonna work in some 20-30 years

What now faggot?

>he doesnt own a padded mouse pad to go easy on the wirsts

fingertip grip here

I have my mouse set a 1200 dpi so I don't even have to move my wrist

I usually spend 10+ hours a day using the fingertip grip. No carpal tunnel here.
Who /masterace/?

No, I play alot more on consoles than on pc.
But I have one when I was a "Pro" CS player before.

Don't have a padded mouse and would get one if there was one of my waifu and there isn't.

no because i have good posture

i depend on what mouse pad surface you're on
i use paper as a mouse pad and my wrist is totally fine
i usually played 6-8 hours a day

what mouses are even small enough to let you do a palm girp

and claw grip i mean come the fuck on no one does that

I'm a left handed satanist so I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

>turn off mouse acceleration because i want to be MLG pro
>wrist starts hurting
It's just a phase right? Did you ever get over it?

Same. Semi-quit PC gaming since it caused wrist problems.

>there are people out there that use a small shitty mouse
>there are people who don't rest their entire hand on the mouse

>what mouses are even small enough to let you do a palm girp

It's the opposite. You need a relatively big mouse to be able to do that. None of the gaymen mice I've owned have had that shape, only office stuff.

I only get problems with my wrist from playing fighting games with an arcade stick for a long time.

I've had tiny mice that require claw grip, and normal mice require fingertip grip, but I have never encountered any mouse, not even a fuckhuge trackball shit from the 90's, that needed a palm grip. It baffles me

>Claw Grip
Patrician Tier. Unmatched clicking and moving precision.

>Palm Grip
Dad Tier. This is what you use if you are a 50 y/o.

>Fingertip Grip
Nigger what are you doing tier. Literally a faggot.

>yfw claw grip

>People spend hundreds on good chairs, fancy desks and mousepads all to prevent discomfort
>I spend half of my day sitting in an old office chair, playing my PC on a shitty office desk without a mousepad
>Have never experienced carpal tunnel or wrist problems of any kind
I think it's all about form and posture. Fingertip grip seems to do me just fine, fuck GAYMER gear.

Its next to impossible to claw grip half of these weirdly shaped pr0 mlg faggot gaymen mice, im using one right now because im not on my battle station and its driving me nuts.

whats my grip called

don't push it man, get a confortable position, try different grips, I'm only confortable on fingertip grip even if I can't reach all buttons on my mmo mouse

retarded

How old are you?
I felt the same way but the day I hit 23 I started getting bad tendonitis

The clit

Dont even joke about it.
Delete this before it goes too far.

Who Fingertip-Claw here?

tossgirl

>claw grip
>never realized people did it differently
>people actually put there whole palm on a mouse like an autistic child trying to pick something up by slapping it

amerifat mousepad

22, considering I spend more than half of my life at a desk I expected to run into problems by now.

Just looking at claw grip is giving me carpal tunnel

want to make cummies on those bubbies '3'

dont you dare call me a gamer

none of this gamer culture is "us"

there is no "us"
if you say you´re a gamer, you´re really not and you either get this or you dont.
t. virtual matrix since 99

>having a sense of superiority because of the way you grip a mouse
One of the most autistic things I read this week.

I'm on my PC atleast 10 hours a day and I don't have that nasty shit on my wrist.

>there are people out there that claw grip their mouse like an autistic sperg

Holy fuck, embarrasing

stupid people don't use foam mousepad

wtf, do americans really keeps pictures of burgers in their homes??

it's probably because they play with low sens and move their wrist a lot more

>shit ergonomics
>get tenosynovitis
WOOOW

Even I don't understand how palm griplets work, do you have to move your entire arm/wrist to get any motion done or what? I can't understand how this would be comfortable after even a few hours.
Fingertip is pretty comfy, my wrist sits flat on the desk and my fingers do all of the work. I've never felt discomfort in my life so I don't really feel inclined to change.

yes it's faster and easier than moving the mouse with your fingers

Palm grip offers no precise controls
claw grip will ruin your hands over long periods of time
fingertip grip is literally perfect, natural and intuitive.

Not as dark, but I do have a bit of redness in that spot that I never noticed.

That's clearly roast beef, not hamburger.

>reading is hard
I never claimed I was superior. Just that I thought the action of palming a mouse looks autistic.

Hybrid Master race

Only autists still play right on their desks. I play in front of my desk on a comfy big leather armchair. I use my mouse on one of the armrest spots with my entire arm being raised a little so my hand gets to the mouse from slightly below instead of above which is how god intended it.

Pic related. It's incredible comfortabel.

Ross Scott?

this claw/fingertip master race

Yes, and we pray in the direction of the nearest McDonalds five times per day.

>not finger aiming

You can't possibly call yourself a real gamer if you don't have carpal tunnel syndrome.

I... am a gamer, and I'm PROUD OF IT!!!!
