I used 110 for a long time, but lately have been using 95. The main advantage  
of a larger FOV, is that you can see a lot more. The main advantages of a 
smaller FOV, is that things are a little bigger, and everything seems to slow  
down, and predicting movement becomes a little easier.

Lots of good players I know are using 110 and even 120.
