stay classy Implying being 16 is a disadvantage? I'd say that's the best age for a player seems likely as i cant think of a single player whos ever peaked at 16
I think in theory its best age because your brain is at his peak aswell as physically, BUT at 16 you have school and in generell not so much time to play( parents etc.)

It's a european tournament, I don't know about American teenagers but have you ever heard the average European teen talk? :D

This is again cultural difference playing in. In Scandinavia especially, 'swearing' is not really something that is scorned or filtered in media in general

stay classy Well it kind of shows how highly people rate foreigners by now if loosing 2-3 to forGG is seen as a bad performance. thats what happens when you play badly
Hmm maybe that reply isn't proper, I guess flash didn't peak at 16.
Either way at that point judging by my own experience as well you improve really fast.

I'm willing to bet it's the same over there as it is here in Europe, it's just that parents need to be in denial about it to feel better about themselves.

Of course the average american and european teenager swear a lot nowadays, or any other country for that matter. But that is still not a reason to swear on air with so many viewers. With that mind-set why not news-reporters swear on air? No kids watch the news right? Thats because its unprofessional - period.

physical peak at 16?
how many olympic gold medal winners are 16 and how many are between 20 and 30?
(not that that would matter too much in starcraft anyways but...)
also you can't possibly have as much experience as the more seasoned players and in a game like starcraft that is very important

Well I would not say that but I cannot say I reay care honestly.. It's something that has had allot of debate here too. I don't see the harm in some minor swearing as long as proper moral values like treating other people with respect and being polite and a good prson are still held.
