I'm not sure whether its timing based or whether you just need to mash buttons like hell? If it is turn based it makes sense, but not much I can do with 300 ms latency as I watch the bar flying by getting redder and redder.

edit: Seems like its just button mashing. Seems hard to keep up the mashing with high latency, as the other person just plain reacts almost half a seconds before you.

No, you simply hold down the key you want. No mashing. I have been easily beating guys who seem to be hitting the keys as quickly as possible.
Thanks, its not very clear. And the mashing just gets harder as you see the red increase. You just helped some people avoid RSI :)
