From mice to keyboards, monitors and even mousepads, gamers will go out of their way to customize practically any part of their setup, in hopes that it might give them some sort of advantage over their opponents.

And when they do manage to make it work, it’s often quite spectacular. So on this week’s episode of Cracked we’re taking a look at some of the weirdest peripherals ever used in esports. Are some of them actually viable or were they only used as a joke?
