Lag can affect the player experience, making them feel frustrated and disadvantaged against other players, and the Lag Monster is considered a symbol of these technical delays and malfunctions. It finds its natural environment of manifestation in the creative worlds of the Minecraft game where it does the lag dance, being a generation and spread of lag, accentuating the experience of lag and frustration for other players.

The Lag Monster always feels he is doing far too much and is not appreciated by others, always finding reasons to blame others for misunderstandings or malfunctions.

They believe that success in overcoming lag is a sign of divine acceptance and full understanding of the nature of the game.
