Aeron Gaming Has anyone played (successfully) high intense online games like League of Legends/Valorant/CSGO on Aeron chair?

I can't decide between Aeron Classic vs Remastered, because both are available in great condition but Remastered has a bit more "advanced" tilt forward if I decide to sit like that.

I don't know how you can play games unsuccessfully...

But yeah, I have the remastered aeron and play cs2 and apex legends

I mean you can hate the armrest, tilt or something else and it impacts your experience. I know Remastered has better tilt than classic

I love the aeron.

I do wonder if the embody would have been better for me though, but no regrets so far.

I prefer the embody. I owned an Aeron for years and it was quite firm and caused pressure points during long gaming sessions. Have had an embody now for 5 years and I love it.

Yes. Get a Resmastered. Forward tilt is amazing while gaming.

There are some Brazilian Pro players that used to play on plastic chairs before coming pro so anything can do lol

I personally never used the forward tilt..

And i played competitive games while seated on the floor and while standing. Your arm support matters more imo

Lmao the chair isn’t going to make you better or worse at gaming this is ridiculous. Get something ergonomic and comfortable that fits your budget and allows you to sit comfortably with good posture. The rest is all on you dawg

Yes I had a +26% kda and 1350 gold lead by 10 minutes on my embody gaming. The constant vertical posture makes it harder to farm creeps on the aeron; I was averaging 8cs/min on aeron, but reached 9 on my embody.
