Tod 4-0'd Alicia?

Impressive.

This, and Tyler's 2-0 win vs. Choya, have been the biggest foreigner upsets so far, it seems.

boxer is right, the crappy pool players need to be cycled out and the mlg format fails at this.

players like machine, incontrol, tlo, and multiple others aren't good at all.

The age thing is a load of bullshit, you don't really become worse at video games when you age. You just get responsibilities, lose motivation etc and practice less.

The injury is a legitimate mitigating factor for him though, obviously.


You don't get worse at video games but your concentration, reaction time, and the muscle fibers to preform some actions wear down.

It's not bullshit.

Yeah, all that happens when you turn like 80. 30 years old is fucking young, dude.

Actually, some parts of your cognitive ability start declining at the age of 25

As someone else has already said: Nestea would disagree :\

1. Nestea is actually a god.
2. He has a thousand IQ to compensate.

Boxer is a super-god with a thousand plus one IQ, sup now yo.

They need to give the translator a mic to translate in real-time. Long answers are hard to remember and that puts a lot of unnecessary pressure on him.

Rofl, Alicia's endless path of PvP:
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2011_MLG_Pro_Circuit/Anaheim/Open_Bracket_Losers

(And he's in loser's bracket beacause of PvP in round one against ToD).

Sadly, I doubt he will get past Tod.

Because of extended series he starts down 2-0. In a PvP, it's hard to win 4-1 against anyone (which is what he will need to do).


True, but then again, Alicia is fucking amazing when he focuses. His PvP vs MC in the super tourney was flawless.

But yeah... it's gonna be fucking difficult to be sure

Why would it be? MLG attracts the demographic that the military is trying to recruit.

Consider this, the viewers of MLG tend to be young college-age males, the exact demographic the national guard would want.

So im clicking thourgh loserbracket http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2011_MLG_Pro_Circuit/Anaheim/Open_Bracket_Losers Did ToD knock out Alicia again?

No. He starts up 2-0 because of the extended series rule.

They play a BO7, so Alicia basically has to go 4-1 against Tod to advance.

He's basically screwed

Nah. Only in Loser's Bracket.

He lost to ToD(again).

Seriously lol, I can't believe anyone would honestly think reaction time slows in your early 30s enough to effect your performance in starcraft.


It doesn't slow that much, but what does slow down is mechanical ability. For Boxer, who has played tens of thousands of SC games, his hands must be deteriorated at least somewhat. It also doesn't help someone like Boxer who was never a mechanically solid player in the first place that younger and younger progamers have already completely developed their mechanics to a point that is far beyond Boxer's.

Actually, some parts of your cognitive ability start declining at the age of 25

Videogames use a very small amount of mental ability...


Your cognative abilities fade when you stop using them. 25 is the age where most adults get out of school, and get into the habit of doing the same thing 5 days a week. There is no LEARNING involved, so their brains begin to degenerate.

Pro gamers are CONSTANTLY using their brains to think of new matches and fix mistakes. The only thing that inhibits them at 25+ is their hands and fingers. Not their brains.
