I wonder how Chaox declined so much playing a role that's mostly unaffected by game wide meta changes.

Champion pool. Can't play MF or Corki 24/7.

Also partying. His poor scrim/work ethic got him kicked off TSM.

Well his main ADC's are all pretty shit in this meta, so that's why. Pretty much anything not Sivir/Lucian/Jinx/Draven, is pretty useless at this point.

It doesn't take that long to pick up an ADC, seriously this excuse just doesn't work for me that well at all. Jinx has been out for like 2 and half months in the first place, and people were playing her after like what, a week?.

i wanna say maybe mechanics are hard to keep up if you play anything less than a shitload, and also age may have something to do with it.

Chaox is just in permaslump. He used to be good, now he's.. well currently he's getting rocked by a random tristana as Lucian.

Not really sure what else is worth mentioning. I am sure it's possible he could get back to form but at the moment he's fallen abit.

LoL doesn't have the same massive APM requirements even on ADC to remain competitive as compared to traditional RTS so I doubt that's the issue. I highly doubt age is a factor when we're talking about a timespan of two maybe three years. More justhim slumping.

He's the adc on Saints stream right now. I just happened to notice it was him and you guys just happened to be talking about him. He got roughed up early game then started to do work I think? I got distracted by giant robot pictures so I missed the ending.

Maybe true for BW but I'm pretty sure you could still play competitive LoL at 40yo lol

The reason is the offensive ADC's that are fotm don't fit his play style. Also, against those lanes passive laners just get pooped on, even if you try to farm safely, you still get pooped on. Back when Chaox was decent/good, he was able to farm it out against the best because he just played the lane passively, and the fotm ADC's in lane didn't allow him to get pooped on by aggressive play.

Reaction times still decay with age, which is hugely important in pro LoL.

The only reason that might be is overwork, because of the ridiculous hours gamers put in during their teenage years. Biologically your reaction times and fine motor skills improve well into your 20s, stagnate for awhile, and then start to deteriorate.

It could also be that even in such a strong gaming environment as Korea, that 20+ year olds start to get distracted by/involved in other life activities, which takes away from their gaming ability(overwork/burnout could play into this part as well, putting in 12+ hour days as a standard for 3+ years is insane and probably incredibly difficult to maintain, it's psychologically expected that at some point performance will fall off because a person fails to maintain such rigorous scheduling, or even if they maintain the schedule they are using the time less effectively).

Indeed. Mechanics aren't an issue at all in LoL. LoL doesn't even require amazing mouse speed. That should not be a factor.

There might be a nocebo effect going on there.
