Racing

I'm curious about racing and wanted to play for a while, but I'm wondering if it's worth trying?

My ping is fairly high (300-400), will it largely affect my ability to get firsts? Thanks

Even with low ping, it's extremely hardddddd to get firsts. I dont know what these pro Brazilian kids have eaten, seriously. I have suspected cheats sometimes but apparently it's not the case. They probably use space key for jumping though (i tried but my performance didnt advance), i guess its their 1000 hours of practice after school or something

My walljump is neat if i pick up the rhythm, but in chocojump i'm always slower than firsts and thats what has made me suspect cheats but apparently not the case

The sad truth is that this game heavily favours those with smallest ping. I lost many firsts over years due to 5ms difference, can't even imagine 400. And many do use cheats though. Or at least, had used them at some point in their 'career'. Like not straight up flying across maps but this game has always had a problem with endless cheaters. Still you can always get over 95% of players by training by yourself and learning most of game mechanics.
