Criticizing someone for being polite and complimentary to the EMPEROR is not cool.

Almost as confusing as Torte De Linis post counter.

I don't think Tod has beaten Alicia, I believe it says that Tod is 2-0 up, but that is from the extended series rule.

Nah. Only in Loser's Bracket.

He can still comeback.

No, he already was in LB. He's out
(If I'm wrong, tell me and i delete this and insult myself)


Looks like you'll have to come up with a clever insult

They haven't played yet in the losers bracket, tod is up 2-0 in their extended series bo7

Really? I think he is way superior to John


The only thing John needs to fix is his accent.

His upbringing in Korea certainly helps him to communicate better with Korean players.

Language skills is not the only factor that makes a good translator.

Cultures and ideals are factors too.


John has been prone to nervousness before he didn't have to translate in front of crowd of thousands of people. Anyone complaining about Milkis should go watch older vods of Blizzcon. God that translator was terrible.

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


That's actually around 23, your brain is at its peak at 22, but it's all a bunch of hogwash because it depends on the person (genetics) and most of the change is negligible. It's that your body starts to actually "age" after 25, it's basically the true age for being an adult. He's right though, thirty is extremely young, especially since the average life span in first world countries is ~77 and you aren't going to see some steep decline of your bodily functions just because you hit 30.

The thing in most sports is the wear and tear over years of playing, it's not the age per say, it's more the playing for over a decade or so at that point and eventually your body isn't going to be able to deal with it as well.


Yeah, this is all far from proven and there is a lot of evidence to suggest that the brain improves in other ways even as its ability to perform simpler tasks degrades. Age is not a handicap in video games.

Videogames use a very small amount of mental ability, regardless of how difficult it may seem

the difference is negligible.

Do you mean physical ability? High level StarCraft is all about mind games and thinking. I'm fairly certain that it requires you to be intelligent and constantly alert.

Also MLG's system is so stupid, can't believe White-Ra missed his match, I know that things like that have angered a lot of pros like ThorZaIN and MorroW.

nope, I mean mental activity. Being a progamer is about constant practice and most of it is just reacting to situations you have already seen.

the brain is very inactive when playing videogames

Boxer mistaking the mlg open bracket for a Code B caliber tournament.


Well he still isn't wrong though.. I don't want to name names but the bottom end of the seeded players aren't ever going to win MLG. No offense to anyone, but I can't wait until the seeds are 100% awesome competitive players. : )

So, cruncher, rain, tyler, ganzi are bigger threats than mvp, mma, and drg? I don't think that highly of the seeded non-koreans, but lets face it, the real threats in this tournament are the seeded koreans.
When I say Korean, I mean plays on the Korean server. I don't care what you think it is, that's what I mean when I say it.

To everyone who claims that being 30 somehow ruins your motor skills etc.

Both players are freakishly fast and accurate yet both are over 40.

Pointing out a few examples is not how to properly argue something.

Especially when, in BW, it is widely known that players can't legitimately compete anymore after a certain age.
