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.)


Except that both mental and physical peak is more around early-mid 20s, (ca 22-25). Would be very intereted to know where you got the idea of 16 being peak at anything from.

I thought i read it sometime, but could have been something like 18-24 and me with my not on his peak brain made a 16 out of it

I hate this so badly about TvZ, you never know when they'll go just ballshit crazy and just make a shit ton of lings of 3 bases. And when you need a quick 3rd cc to keep up with them, theese are really hard to hold.

Yeah, Kas vs. Ret is usually really good, sad if Kas is affected so severely by his travel

This is another thing that teams really is expected (imo) to secure for their players

Am I the only one who does not like seeing a caster with a team jersey? It's not that important but it just feels wrong to me.


Nope I agree, casters should be wearing shits and possibly even a tie. I understand that they have to please the sponsors, but if they are casting then they also should retain a certain standard of professionalism. I'm also not a fan of casters swearing, this is not good for trying to get the younger generations into E-sports, because many parents wont like their kids listening to such vulgarity.


Oh give me a break. They barely swear at all, and do you really think 10 year olds or something will be watching this? There isn't anything non-professional about team jersey's anyway.


Well there is a 16 year old participating in this tournament. So I wouldn't be surprised if there were a number of 10-15 year olds watching. Put yourself in the position of a parent, would you want your child sitting down watching people who swear? Don't me wrong, if its a laid back casual 1on1 interview, I dont care, but when something like this is on air and has 30k+ viewers, they need to cater to all ages.

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


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.

Wow what a sissy!


What an immature child who has no knowledge about professionalism or the real world.

Professionalism isn't necessarily always good, look at the archetypal American news presenter, so godamn insincere it's unbelievable. Give me a bit of swearing and lapses of that kind any day over those robots.


If its not important, then why do MLG and GOMTV casters wear shirts and not swear?

If its not important, then why do MLG and GOMTV casters wear shirts and not swear?

Probably because someone told them to.

You could compare having a cast with them wearing suits vs them wearing t-shirts and comparing viewer numbers I guess.


Exactly, and why do you think "someone" told them not to ?

Because if the 1/10000 guy complains they can blame the caster since they've told them not to

Me neither, I can't focus and I feel like watching a movie or a stream or even have a napinstead of concentrating on the game.

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.)



Physical peak is late 20s, and mental peak generally is mid 20s, even though some other functions like spatial reasoning peaks in your late 50s. The reason you see teenagers doing so well is because they have less priorities and responsibilities. As much as we might like to say that gaming is mainstream, it really isn't, at least not yet. Many people lose their passion also the more they play the game. Just look at NaDa. His abilities didn't decline because of some physical or mental diminishing, but because his priorities shifted.

Let's also not forget the fact that Korean gamers are interrupted for years in the early 20s due to conscription. I think it's a bit silly to say that playing Starcraft is more physically or mentally demanding than say, Nolan Ryan pitching at age 43. If major league baseball players can still be on the top of the world in their late 30s in such a demanding sport, what makes you think that humans can't play starcraft in their early and mid twenties at the top of the game?



I mean just because you say things confidently does not make them correct.

p.s. SaSe has this base race in the bag

What does "mental peak" even mean?

Tasteless said fuck about 100 times on Real Talk, maybe children will watch that.

Tasteless routinely talks about crushing nerds, ripping out their hearts, etc. Exposing so much violence to our children. ((
