if you are gaming you should opt for wired connection since it is a more reliable connection with less lag time

Wireless only has one advantage over wire; convenience. Everything else is a negative. Wireless is more complex, slower, increases latency, less reliable, requires more maintenance, more expensive, less secure, etc. If using wire was always practical, no one in their right mind would opt for wireless.
