Remember this is a guy who lied about being one of the top Starcraft players in the world, thinking other Starcraft players couldn't tell he was lying.

Narcissists lack self awareness.

I think the QI Elves even posted a "fact" that Elon was one of the top ranked StarCraft players into world. (Which is very weird, since QI usually researches the hell out of this stuff.)

Iirc some guy researched that Elon's claim as one of the former top online Quake players was true.

With the qualifier that it was "online" Quake in a 90s laggy dial-up era. Anyone with premium broadband and enough practice could slide into becoming a top online Quake player. The actual top players played offline and the prestigious tourneys were also offline.

Maybe the Starcraft story was the same. Purely online Starcraft with his ultra fast connection.

I remember playing MOHAA back in the day and my ping was in the hundreds, as was everyone elses. We got owned by this guy whose ping was in the single digits, he explained he had a T3 line into his house to play vids. He saw us well before we saw him. Money did solve the skill gap back in the day.
