*Warning! Being caught with possession or consuming Adderall without a proper prescription WILL get you banned MLG Events and functions! Being caught selling or distributing over the counter drugs without a proper license IS ILLEGAL in the United States and will leave you subject to prosecution.


Having motivation, focus, and concentration are key in becoming successful in the Electronic Sports competitive scene. A perfect balance of these attributes can make a gamer seemingly unstoppable. For years, there has been a prescription over the counter drug call “Adderall”, that seems to give most gamers the upper hand. But what is someone who is not prescribed truly risking for temporary recognition and success?


“Adderall has downsides for gaming - doesn't make u better - all mental.” Says a tweet from 5 time National Champion Tom “Ogre 2” Ryan.

“I don’t need Adderall to play well. Never have, never will.” Says Kyle “Chig” Lawson team captain of MLG Pro team ‘Fnatic’

Adderall increases dopamine flow in the frontal cortex then allows the brain to carry on its executive functions as a normal brain would, thus counteracting the effects of ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactive disorder). But what happens when a brain whose executive functions work properly is treated with such a powerful stimulant? Most scientists will tell you that the health risks of taking the drug normally are virtually non-existent. But also will tell you that there is a high risk of dependency.

Here are my top 3 reasons I believe Gamma Labs is better than the effects of Adderall in the long run. First of all, Gamma Labs has NO CRASH. If you are a heavy user of Adderall you know that the after effects can make you drowsy and very tired! If you plan on making it to the winners’ finals at an event, Adderall is not the way to go. Secondly, is the cost of a case of Gamma Labs PTF. If you are not prescribed you have to illegally attain the drug and more times then not it will cost you a pretty penny. Gamma Labs is affordable and lasts for a decent amount of time. And lastly, its just flat out illegal to do without being properly prescribed by a doctor. That may not seem that big of a deal now but cops and especially MLG do not tolerate it.

Professional gaming is a sport of precision, timing, and a little bit of luck! So limiting the factors hindering your chances to be the best is very important. What if you run out of Adderall? What if your built up tolerance won’t allow you to feel the effects as quickly and costs you greatly? The solution to this problem can be found in Gamma Labs. Established in 2004, Gamma Labs was formed for one reason; to find the healthiest, most effective way to maximize your body's Physical and mental production. Gamma Labs is 100% natural, 100% legal, and 100% effective. Carry it with you at MLG Events, drink it between games, and see immediate improvements in your game! I don’t know about you but if I could suffice getting arrested and banned from MLG Events for the same type of results? I’d be all over it. Try it out! See if it doesn’t improve your game, health, and eating habits!

Thanks guys and stay tuned for some big announcement from The LAN Network! Till then enjoy this awesome video from my good friend Andy "Bravo" Dudynsky on some sick Halo 4 news!! Make sure you follow me! @TLN_Invictus

Alright. I'm not trying to be a troll, but I think what Gamma is doing is dumb as hell, or at least how they're advertising the product. They are advertising a Pre-workout formula for use to enhance your gaming. I'm sorry but ptf's are meant for actual physical activity. Like many other pwo's gamma lab's ptf sticks contain ingredients that strongly effect the heart. The combination of caffeine and other stimulants in pre workouts can really be harmful to anyone prone to heart conditions or has pre diagnosed conditions. Infact, just yesterday, I saw someone's twitter status who uses gamma products for gaming, and they said, "If my heart beat doesn't slow down, I'm gonna have to go to the hospital." ........ I highly doubt that kids taking it for gaming actually follow the dosage instructions or actually use it before a workout. I'm disappointed at how you compare it to adderall and are actually persuading people to take it. People are going to buy it and most likely take it without reading the label and could lead to serious health issues. That being said, I do agree with your persuasive attempts to cut down the abuse of adderal. People are dumb as hell and are ignorant to it's effects on the heart. Again, not trying to come at anyone personally, just stating my opinions on the whole advertising it as a "pre-gaming formula." Backing my point up I hope you enjoy this picture I saw Best Man post. There's 4 scoops in there. A hell of alot of caffeine and i'm almost positive it wasn't for lifting use as he said "Ready for a long night of gaming." Am I the only one who is concerned or has this opinion?

I think the sentence "Drink it between games" is very dangerous. I can't say that I've taken Gamma products per se, but I've used other pre-workout supplements and I know that they are very specifically labelled in their usage. They are only to be used once per day, 20-30 minutes before physical activity, and should be discontinued for at least a week after 3 weeks of use.

The way you are suggesting to use this supplement could cause even more issues than using Adderall (I am in no way condoning the use of Adderall in any form). You are basically telling kids to drink 3-4 energy drinks before every game.

I am more concerned that kids have to take things like this to get better at video games I am percribed adderal so I use to take it I have since then stored taking it and I feel better and play better off it. As for gama labs I feel like it is unessary to have but some kids seem to need it.

Guys there is nothing magic in these pills and powders. They are stimulants and they give you the perception of great focus at a cost to your body. I'll bet meth and cocaine can get you convinced you are playing better. Cocaine makes everything better until you run out.

Only if you do it straight off a hooker's ass.
