Depends on what you take. I've never done crack, and never will, but I imagine it's not productive when playing video games.

I don't like to drink energy beverages because of shaking, that made my gameplay hit 100s...

But for some reason I didn't stop drinking those...
Zelmarked
Hitting an amp energy drink right now. It's part soda-part energy drink. They sell them as single cans so I don't pick em as main main energy drink. Grape and mixed berry are my fav of Amp.

I used to be a Monster energy drink guy. Then the store one day was out of stock but they had "Slap". Been doing that since.

i have a huge collection of monster cans in my room. however, i never drink monster before playing osu! because it makes me shake, especially if i'm nervous

You'd probably be better off after a couple drinks than using stimulants (I've seen a number of people do much better at DDR when coming back from Beer and Wings night... we called this "Johnny Fevering", after the WKRP episode where Johnny Fever does better at a sobriety reaction test the more he drinks). For a performance enhancing drug, I'd imagine you'd want something more like lorazepam or clonazepam... anti-anxiety medication that will cut out nerves and prevent jumpiness, but still leave you clear-headed enough to play well.

If you want a stimulant... tea is probably one of the better choices mentioned, as it contains theophylline, which is similar to caffeine, but produces more of a mellow buzz than a jolt. It still contains caffeine though.

Actually, if anyone knows mnto, that guy is friggen godlike after intake of alcohol XD wut a clutch boss

Coffee or tea in the morning and a vitamin water midday.

One day I had a double dose of coffee because I was really sleepy.
hoo boy...
vizzy
No because I usually shake like crazy after I drink one.
kinolee
I used to drink coffee before I switched to doing lines of raw caffeine.
xRayne
I used to drink so many of the Monster Energy drinks, it was crazy. But these days, that was like two years ago xD, I haven't really drank any, anymore :v

But along with osu!, i will mostly drink tea or water :v
I should really stop bringing beverages around my laptop .-.
Scarth_old
Really guys, tea is a mega caffeine hit.

3+ cups a day of tea for me, no coffee or other energy beverages.
Rokodo
Waryas
Got myself a few cans of monster khaos, its tasty
Zelmarked
I just put down one and my chest pains were more noticeable.

Fuck my life, literally.
those
Keep drinking that pussy, Rokodo.

I recall getting chest pains after I had consumed 3 Monsters in a day. I thought I was going through cardiac arrest, but that wasn't the case. Since then, I made sure not to take more than one a day. Though, I have coffee more than anything now, but it doesn't have much effect on my osu! performance.
Cuddlebun
I'm one of the only people I know who don't drink any sort of energy drink or coffee. Both make me vomit.

Seriously though most energy drinks smell like cancerous death. I don't know how people can smell it and still drink it
Vish024
Only red bull and V here.

Otherwise tea is the best. Nothing is superior to tea.

Rantai
I have had a lifetime combined total of:

1 drop of energy drink
1/4 a cup of coffee (combining all types)
15 cups of watered down green tea (average time of effect for each cup is 16 hours, I usually drink in half cups)
2 drops of coke/pepsi

-

Caffeine and I are a volatile mix, I tend to avoid it at all costs unless I need some artificial consciousness for a test or something. My theory is, is that if I have a cup of coffee I will not sleep for 2 days. If I have an energy drink I will die of a heart attack.
-Athena-
i just can't stand coffee, taste is too strong for me
but only 15 cups of green tea and 2 drops of coke/pepsi? holy p00t
mathexpert
I enjoy coffee (with an ample amount of of sugar & cream ofc <3) but i'm very sensitive to caffeine( including chocolate ;__;). Decaf helps a little, but if I drink it after 2 pm count on me not having a wink of sleep \:D/

Tea is also good (any kind, really)~
S o r c e r y
well, coffee is too bitter i think, i can't bear it... so.. tea and milk tea are my friends :D
SereneMidnight_old
I don't drink energy drinks anymore, but I still drink a lot of coffee.

I dont like drink energy Drinks before playing Osu. If i drink a Enery Drink my Hand goes Brainafk
SunriseSorrow
I drink Water. H2O Molecules lol. It actually helps :O. You know how it perks up and activates blood circulation? Or so I think..
Yarissa
I used to drink energy drinks for the sole purpose of playing osu! better. It significantly affected my performance (in a good way, mind you). Then I started messing with my old ADHD medicine because I wanted that same skill boost and ended up getting addicted to speed for about a month. I found out later that I was one pill away from overdosing myself and possibly killing myself. True story. Don't do drugs, kids.

Coffee is disgusting too.
Minty Gum
No, but sometimes I eat candy that's full of sugar~ :3
Mashley
Monster... way too much of it. And coffee when I don't have monster.
And jesus Roko why do you drink so many of those 35p euroshopper drinks? I get that they're cheap but, come on, move it up a level man.
VWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
sports drinks are made for elite, extreme athletes that go all out in what they do, like doing a marathon. Most people don't fit that description when drinking a sports drink.

Oh? Is that why they're marketed to regular people for a relatively cheap price? Because they aren't designed for regular people?

Ok.

Ok.
the amount of physical exercise you need to do in order to actually need the benefits sports drinks provide is alot higher than what regular people ever do. water is better 99% of the time

I don't like sweet stuff all too much so coffee and more coffee.

Although I do occasionally drink some soda too.

None for the sake of playing this game tho.

I didn't say that they were better than anything.

They are definitely not designed specifically for international sports champions or Olympic athletes and no one else.

Used to drink Coke and energy drinks (but only before league matches in other games and I was feeling tired). Kinda screwed up my teeth, so it's basically all coffee for me.

I would say "it's unhealthy, it's bad for you etc etc etc" but once you've committed to drinking something as volatile as an energy drink I doubt you'd care xD
Vish024
Sports drinks are well advertised, sports nuts will purchase something if they're favourite athlete is associated with it.

I drink tea.
Boom
I eat chocolate.It boost my power.

I used to drink a lot of monster..but the past few years, i haven't really drank any energy drinks.

No, except for Gatorade. All other energy drinks I know can ruin my kidneys.

Not a fan of caffeine.
I rely on sugar sometimes.
Accelerator-kun
Nope.
fuyuko-chan
No. Too sweet :3

Actually no. Most of them taste really bad... Also, I am energetic without it XD
And It's not healthy :C

yea boi
Agnes
I usually have some Monster, but very rarely. Usually don't have much money afterward to afford any.

As for Shiirn, she drinks Red Bull. Dunno how.
Zelmarked
Got some monster rehab. Tea/lemonade/energy drink concoction. Tastes good.
OnosakiHito

Coffee. I typically drink it in the morning to wake me up. I also enjoy the taste, so sometimes I'll just randomly have a coffee at some other random time of day x3 It's also a great beverage for when you're cold (and an iced coffee does you good if it's too hot). As for energy drinks, I've taken a single sip of various energy drinks...still don't like the taste of ANY of them. Tea is kind of hit or miss, some I like and some I don't.

@soly: nice post, would make a good Monster commercial geared towards the osu userbase xP

DERO DORON DRINK!

Energy Drinks becomes more and more sweet and it feels horrible in my stomache.
I perfer lemonade. R.I.P Red Bull ._.
Mara
I have only drank one can of energy drink.

It was Powerking, thanks to ethox.
vizzy
Can't handle Red Bull, shake easily. I drink soda/lemonade though.
benguin
I never had a liking towards lemonade, it was always too sour for me and I never liked the way it made my throat feel afterwards. I don't mind some variations of it though, like I can handle some strawberry lemonades and limeade usually isn't a bother for me.
Mogsy
The only times I really grab energy drinks are when I need a huge amount of energy for a short amount of time. Energy drink crashes are horrible.

So, instead, I just drink tons of coffee. Not because I'm addicted to caffeine, per se, but because I fucking love coffee.
Milli_old
Caffeine is bad for my stomach :<
Hiryuu_old
I've tried several products.. here are my thoughts:
Red bull is shit
Battery gives me a headache
Jussi energy drink would be suitable for cleaning windows
Starter tastes bad
Monster so far is the only decent one...i've had a few cans but not addicted to it
Maneuver
I can't....drink coffee or tea..... i'm allergic to it.. T.T~~

Water, lots of water when playing osu!, dunno y i feel hot after half an hour playing osu xD
Irisu_old
depends on the drink
Kanye West
Yes, I've had countless Red Bull shots before final exams.
XPJ38
No.

Water and peach iced tea ftw.
[BlinK]
I'm sensitive to caffene and sugar.
Still drink it. It just makes me bounce of the walls.
Yuugo
Coffee! But not specifically for osu! though. It has become my go-to drink when I'm at the university and at home I usually drink water.

programmers turn coffee into code they say
Birdy
Not for osu!, but to stay awake over nights~

Coffee mainly, rarely energy drinks anymore.
