Does nicotine improve gaming performance?

Seeing it is a "brain-enhancing drug" i wonder if it improves gaming performance? Like faster reflexes, alertness and so on. Makes sense to me but i wonder what you guys think?

Haha...no

No, but adderall does. : )

No idea but I've played video games while high on weed just fine.

No.

LOL, you have to be that naive to think that or you're just a 13 YO who thinks/defends that smoking have benefits.

Nicotine does improve motor-skills.....i.e. why so many baseball players chew tobacco.  It will also kill you.

No, neither does weed.

Smoke banana peels and cat nip.

nicotine is a stimulant that increases brain function... so yea.

Though, probably not in any major capacity.

Well yea weed generally has the effect of a depressant to my knowlowedge, but a particularly stressed out and high strung individual could probably benefit in terms of of relaxation and focus in the same vein as a stiff drink.

I don't know, nor do I care.

I certainly as hell am not going to start smoking just to improve my gaming skills, even if that were true.

It probably does, but one would think it's not a significant difference.

I would assume so. I'm better at concentrating after I drink soda.

That's why im happy to live in sweden, we got that swedish snus. It's 90-99% healthier than cigarettes!szafto
