The biggest advantage of being host is that basically things happen on your screen before the everyone else's, so say you and a guy get into a firefight - and on his screen he shot first and should have killed you, but really you shot long before him and killed him. its known as the "death-lag"

have u ever been shot by someone and then ran around a corner and their bullets "mystically" curved around the wall and kill you? = host lag.

hope that helps. not the best explanation.

Being host is a massive advantage, you win 80% of firefights if you shoot first, win almost every knife battle, shoot people around corners, have like 0 latency which others have anywhere from 50 - 150+ latency.

Its just the Uber Pwnage lets put it that way...
