ROFL oh my.... what the hell is wrong with you?
my point of view is different to yours
I agree with your viewpoint, and would rather see those types of manners in games but all the time towards everyone just seems very forced. I would rather see more sincere manners then forced manner from Incontrol.
He has been doing this in tournaments forever. There is nothing forced about. You just don't understand incontrol, which is very common around here and reddit
That is why I say it is forced when he does it all the time. Also the funny thing you mentioned reddit because there is a post about him with the incontrol/sundance issue.
So wait is it also forced when Sheth does it
e: and I'm stunned people are trying to claim saying "you are amazing" to BOXER could possibly be forced
Well Sheth doesn't shit on people and then try to make up for it with fake gm at the end of broadcasted tourney games.

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
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
Thiis last commentis sooooo stupid lol
lol? there is empirical evidence of the brain being inactive during videogames
please don't talk if you're clueless
Agreed. You should stop posting.
There have been scientific studies on this, what do you base your views off?

him playing is basically the equivalent if bill russell was still playing in the nba and beating younger players (not to mention while dealing with a shoulder injury)

Oh really? Every single study I've ever read shows that brain activity while playing video games is incredibly high. Absurd argument either way.

It's just not working. Nothing is there.
I also have this issue. It justs loads the player with the big play button in the middle, I hit play and nothing loads.
i had this issue, but when i just refreshed the whole page (rather than hitting the play button), it worked.
Hmm, nothing works for me, I've tried just about everything. Really sad i missed the Boxer interview. Anyone found a solution?
Happened to me, that didn't work. Tons of people reporting this on MLG forums, no response yet but hope they fix 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.
So in order to refute an anecdote you present one of your own, only with less evidence. /facepalm
not really, oldest MSL/OSL winner was 22 i think.
That has nothing to do with age, that has to do with wear and tear. Sorry, but if you`re slowing down at 22 it's from playing said sport for a long time and it being an intense grind on the parts of your body it utilizes. Your physical prime, if you keep in shape should be 21-25 (still based on genetics, but for most people), since your body has relatively matured and grown in most aspects (not all, you grow for a while still).

Idra does not GG boxer

inControl is super manner after his lose to boxer
(TL) "OMG inControl you where super manner, how could you do that to the emperor"
Or maybe you could actually read what people are posting, most of them are specifically singling out how it may be appropriate against someone like Boxer, but considering how inControl does it all the time on camera, it seems forced as hell.
There are some people in the community who seem genuinely nice and appropriate as "ambassadors for eSports", Sen, Sheth, White-ra, Grubby just to name a few. On the other hand, inControl just genuinely feels like he's forcing it since he does a lot of the shit he says not to do, and does it on a regular basis, lambasts people and labels others as haters for criticizing him.
It's not just about Boxer and his manner towards him, it's the bigger picture.

There are also scientific studies that show the opposite. Now stop posting.
