Cold Fingers...do they effect your gameplay?

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

....Well,they affect mine.Everytime i come out from the cold then play smash,this happens:

-My fingers get stiff

-Can't execute SHFFLC effectivly

-feel numb

-hands dry up.

I hate it,and it really screws with my gameplay techniques.How does it affect you?

 

[Pose]

Actually game play actually warms my hands up... For a while its weird and cause me to sometimes roll my hand into a fist at times but otherwise I don't really notice.

 

[ThatGuy]

YES! Cold fingers affect everyone's gameplay, for they are much stiffer and react slower than warm fingers. Why do you think athletes "warm-up" before any activity? You need warmth to have effective blood circulation and better reaction.

That's why I'm not a fan of having an open window. Sure sometimes it can get stuffy, but I prefer that over a cold breeze blowing over my hands

EDIT: And for the record, gameplay does not warm up my hands. If anything, they cool it, simply because my body is not active enough. My hands can do all they want, but if you don't get the arms moving, the body will see no reason to start pumping more blood to your hands.

Frozen fingers suck..

Kills Dash Dancing, can barely wavedash, can't shake control stick fast enough to get out of grabs.......

but mostly

trying to force a kill for time to warm up my fingers

and its been happenning to me for a while

 

[pdk]

in before "in before the lock!"

anyway, i wouldn't know since i don't remember the last time i played with cold fingers (though i did used to frequently have single fingers become cold after everyday use)

 

[KrulNess]

i peronally dont like the cold hands, it really does mess up how you can play...and i have noticed that playing more and more actually does make them colder, unless you sweat a bit in your hands...

 

[quak]

Hands work better warm than cold

That's why way back when, the only parts of a convent that was heated were the scribes' rooms.

 

[plasmawisp6633]

Yeah, a person's manual dexterity/agility is virtually nil in the cold. That's why you should play a few practice matches to get your hands literally warmed up.

 

[Lier]

whenever i play smash my hands always seem to be cold, it doesnt really affect my gameplay thou. hmm weird

 

[Gkryptonite]

And after this thread, your friends are gonna turn up the air conditioner just to beat you with

 

[cowboyardee]

Its not hard guys.

Go to the bathroom and run your hands under some warm water. You'll be fine in a minute or two.


If this does not help and your hands are still cold while you're playing, check to make sure that you are indoors.

Once you have warmed your hands under water and confirmed that you are in fact indoors, should your problem persist, be advised that you have vascular problems with possible blood clots and should see a doctor before you have a cerebral vascular accident.

 

[Smash G 0 D]

I absolutely hate cold hands.. My gameplay completely screws up.

 

[Eci4]

Cold controllers effect me more than cold hands... Cold hands will effect me for a stock or two, but then they are warm, but cold controllers feel stiff, and colden my hands...

Lmfao lol my friend did that but with a heater to the point where we were sweating and slipping lmao

I wish I could find a controller with heating/cooling in it. Some sort of Super Wavebird.

It would eat up batteries like no tommorow,but it would be worth it if it were rechargable,you would have to keep it plugged in.^,^

 

[Metà]

I cannot play Fox with cold hands. Fox + cold hands = lots of screw-ups.

 

[radical00edward]

i train with cold hands

 

[Red Exodus]

My whole body was cold when I entered a Xbox 360 contest, I really got unlucky that day, everyone sucked except the guy that beat me, he even went on to win the whole competition >.> My hands only get cold when my body is cold =/

 

[InfiniteFalco1337]

Cold hands for the most part, mess up everyones game play, that goes for me too, it slows down my reaction time with my hands, I miss plenty of shuffles and waveshines, and I sometimes illusion off stage.

 

[Xx GuNz xX]

I call the patent on it!

 

[Zink]

Well, the Airflow has cooling, and I'm sure you could mod it to add some form of heating.

 

[Smash G 0 D]

I like moderate fingers with a cool controller. Yeah Fox sucks with cold hands... no movement omg

 

[Fletch]

I wish I could find a controller with heating/cooling in it. Some sort of Super Wavebird.

Amen to that. It usually takes a couple matches to warm my hands up, I suck until then.

 

[NightHawk87]

Yeah cold hands mess up my game. I get cold hands(and feet sometimes) usually when I don't get enough sleep.

 

[Kinlap]

I like my hands and fingers sweaty. It makes the controller easier to use. But that's also why no one in my group likes to use my controller.

 

[LaniusShrike]

Yeah, cold hands affects me as well... but I intentionally make my hands cold, since I like the handicap/variation. Makes gameplay more interesting sometimes- as well as playing upside down or behind your back, heh. I also just love the cold, really.

 

[Ryuker Reo]

Ah, yes. Many many things affect someone's gameplay. Cold fingers being one of them. I made a thread about all the stuff that may affect your gameplay about 2 or 3 weeks ago. It should be around.

 

[the problem]

It affects me ALOT I can barly play when my hands are cold. Just the other day I suicided like 3 times <_<

 

[Zeee]

Cold Nipples help my gameplay.

Cold fingers aren't as bad has ashy fingers or SWEATY fingers.

Or worse... Using a controller after some sweaty dude had a hold of it.

 

[golden_leeroy]

I've had cold fingers due to poor circulation my whole life, so I'm used to it.

That heated controller thing sounds pretty cool.

 

[ximrekcuf]

eh i almost never get cold fingers, after 1 game they feel plenty warmed up.

 

[AS Money]

if your haveing problems with it play peach and hit the yellow stick down you should do about as good

 

[pikachun00b7]

when I'm in a car I short hop, wavedash ect. on my unplugged GC controller for half an hour before I arrive.

 

[Z-N_Freak]

i train with cold hands

How? T_T

I hate cold fingers, I cannot do anyhting good if I have coldfingers, I screw up 50% of the time I wouldn't screw up if I had warm fingers =/

 

[thatsmybutta]

I had to run from my hotel to the javitz center @ MLG new york for my first match. i played like **** but still won. it was so hard cuz it was like 15 degrees out.

 

[FireBomb]

If it's truly cold outside or wherever you're at, then they can definitely have an effect. Once, my hands were nearly frozen, but the importance of the match made me forget and I ended up doing alright. Mind over matter can come into play and save you or screw you over.

 

[marthmaster04]

Yea, somewhat. I feel all stiff n **** before I warm up.

 

[ronin899]

It definately affects my game. If my hands are cold, I can't really do anything that I want like shuffling and stuff like that. That is why I like my room, it is always warm

 

[Luck-NYC/NJ]

Yes OMFG i hate wen tht happens. cant play at top potential wif cold fingers
