I used mesh wifi in a house of mine as I didn't want to run cables through 3 floors. It served it's purpose to the various smart devices around the house and I didn't have issues with latency in gaming. Sometimes the mesh hotspots would crash or de-sync which would cause some headaches (especially from the inept ex) if I was out of town. Next home I will probably run wires with APs. I think mesh WiFi is good for standard home use but for power users a wired connection will always be better\less headache.
