FPS's are not all twitch reactions, in fact thats only half of what makes a good player.
Knowing the maps, knowing how to use the maps, and knowing how people will react will do it are just as important.
My favorite personal example of this was back in my CS days (before the hacks). I was one of those players that would make any team I was on, but I ran into someone with better twitch skills than I had. Face to face, head one, odds are I'd lose. So after a match or two, I adapted, and learned his style. I anticipated where he would be and killed him 4 or 5 times, before he finally quit the server. I was always moving so he couldn't anticipate where I would be, and he never changed his patterns.
But even without using your brain, twitch reactions are in fact a skill, or does that mean sports like being a hockey goalie or a batter in baseball have no skills?
