A subcategory of 'tryhard' in video games, characterized by:
1. Inhuman reaction times
2. Incredibly fast movement
Most people categorize 'tryhards' as 'sweats', but it's a very different term; 'tryhard' simply means that someone is so keen to win something at all costs, even at the expense of fun, but this does not necessarily mean they have great reaction times or incredibly fast movement. A 'sweat' is always a 'tryhard', but a 'tryhard' might not necessarily be a 'sweat'.
Sweats are most commonly seen in super fast-paced twitch shooter games with a super fast time-to-kill and lightning fast movement speed; these include games like COD, Quake, CSGO, Splitgate, Apex Legends, Fortnite, and the newer Halo games with sprinting.
Sweats are known to be incredibly frustrating to play against, because it almost seems impossible to defeat them, as their skills do not necessarily revolve around critical thinking, muscle memory with aim, or complex strategy, but rather pure biological reaction time, which often cannot be trained, and is genetic/related to age. An old man can train critical thinking and strategy skills, but it is literally biologically impossible for them to train and compete with someone with higher reaction times and reflexes.
Sweats are often associated with the energy drink G-Fuel (which contains large amounts of caffeine, known to boost reaction time and alertness), the stimulant crack cocaine, as well as many other amphetamines, like Adderall.

Joe: gets killed by a player that flew around a corner and killed him quicker than he could react
Joe: "Jesus, that dude is such a sweat. He probably snorted an entire tub of G-Fuel before he hopped on the game today."

Get the Pubstompingmug. When people obsessively compare themselves to each other to see who is 'the best' or 'the biggest'. It may or may not involve actual penises, but it can. Usually the things being compared are worthless and meaningless things like income, car size, house size, job performance, sports stats, partner attractiveness, and yes, of course, penis sizes.
They're all bragging about how big their cars are versus the other guy's car, they're just engaging in a useless dick measuring contest.

Get the Dick Measuring Contestmug. A phrase said to League of Legends players and many internet-goers in general; used as an insult to indicate that a person needs to stop spending so much time on the computer and get a life outside of it.
Friend: I just got Challenger in League!! It only took like 5 years of me playing the game for 8 hours straight every single day!!!
Me: That's awesome!!! Now that you've got that all finished up, you should go outside and go touch grass for the first time in fucking forever, you degenerate loser!

Get the Go Touch Grassmug. A statement people say when they are frustrated with the lack of content or game-breaking bugs/glitches in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022). The statement is a reference to the amount of time spent working on the game (3 years) and the amount of developers who worked on the game (3000). People use the phrase in mockery of the fact that even after 3 long years of the game's development, with a massive amount of 3000 developers putting time into developing the game, it still manages to be a horribly broken, unfinished, and incomplete mess.
