modems? naw some of the best use 56 k
bugs? if yer elite.. you propably dont use that and its not enough to win a match
fast comp? naw same as modems
Dueling! if ya dont have skill.. yer not elite, u can have the fastest comp and great connection and still loose someone With "better" skills on a 56 k, no lag does give an advantage tho
i luv mah 512 kb/s cableh :D

Modem connection has nothing to do with a good jazzer a good computer is a different story being hit by a seeker 5 or 6 tiles away from you is very annoying.

If you have a 56k modem,
you can still win if you have good strategy. I've seen people with DSL/Cable who can't beat a person with 56k. =P

What makes a jazzer "Eleite" has nothing to do with fast connections and computers it has to do with something called "skill" i can take out some DSL jazzers with my 33.6 modem! (really, i can :p) though i DO beleive i can do alot better with a fast computer. :P

Well take out iCeD if you ever see him again! He's the laggiest person in the community.
Ow! You can have skills, you can have fast computers but if you don't have a good connection to the server your enemy can roast you with a few easy shots without even hitting you. I hate when ppl use that advantage to roast ppl with poor connection.

I've got a 56k and I'm fine.

In the end, it is probably a combination of skill and capacity. Your potential may very well be limited by a bad connection, but skill only fills up that bar of potential. It is of no use to have a large bar of potential with close to nothing in it. The exploitation of bugs covers all of that skill up, however, as the game may not be won properly, if at all, with the abuse of the bugs. A computer with an insufficient processor or video card may also hinder skill, but that does not seem to be a common problem as of today. Dueling opens up more space for potential, but does not necessarily fill it all the time. Experience under various conditions such as lone reliance, teamplay, and handicaps are required to improve at all. Of course, people probably do that unintentionally and simply play the game. Conditions like these apply to just about everything related to it.

What makes a great Jazzer? Skill.
What (can) make you win? Speed of Internet/computer.
There's a difference.

How does a sentence become a phrase? ;-P
And what phrase or sentence might that be? ;-P

Actually, a fast processor and a slow modem is the best combination. Just host a game with that type of rig. It really works - anybody ever been to "LaggyZone"? Heheh, I have some long stories about lag from there...
That's why I'm still undefeated in my server, even after all these years. Heh, heh heh. Bring it on... ;P
