just because they are doing bad recently, doesn't mean three completely new players will come to dominate over jaedong, bisu, and flash

personally, i don't think jaedong is ever going to get into any slump. man bisu and flash are too good, too.

I like (Z)HoeJJa and (Z)Thezerg, although it's probably wishful thinking. I still think that (Z)Thezerg will make a comeback (does winning his last two games against (P)JangBi and (T)HiyA count?)

If you're going to call someone a liar for instance, saying "do you notice how often they look away when you speak to them" is not the best way to start forming a logical argument.


I wasn't trying to create an argument, I'm more or less in shock that you edit every single one of your posts and yet they are still pointless and retarded.

There will be no next generation for a very long time. From a physiological standpoint, the body's reaction time only begins to decline at an average age of 37. The brain's decision making processes also begin to decline around 28.

Mind you, the amount of "decline" is extremely limited for the first several years. This is why we see highly successful NFL quarterbacks playing well into their 30s. This is also why they say you need to conduct your best research by the age of 35 if you hope to win a Nobel Prize.

You obviously know nothing about the average professional StarCraft career.

Yeah, Boxer and Elky are only 28, they are still dominant right?

That isn't really how the mind works...The greatest Strategists and Scientists of the 20th Cent. were all decently old men..

What Boxer suffers from isn't 'old age' but he has always had weaker macro and in a day and age where macro reigns in supreme, he has to really be creative to win, and he does quite well.

Come on, Boxer hasn't "done quite well" in years. I mean...the last time he played a Starleague game was May 2007.

A combination of intense competition and rigorous practice demands are what make "generations" so short in professional StarCraft. Practicing full-time, non-stop is a difficult lifestyle to maintain, especially when every month there are new progamers on the scene who haven't been worn down by years of it. Stress injuries are a problem, but I think the real impediments to successful generation-spanning SC careers is mental.

Isn't it obvious weaker players were dominant at a time when Starcraft was less competitive? Even Boxer says he's a better play now than he was at his "prime".

JWD, please don't reply to my posts anymore. I would greatly appreciate it. On the other hand, if you can prove you know more than me, then by all means go ahead. I highly doubt your analytic skills supercede my own.

Actually, the greatest scientists were most competent when they were young. As they grew older their celebrity status grew, but nonetheless their greatest work was done in their youth.
