Check out the link to Boxer v IdrA on TL from Artosis. With all the rumored/confirmed news of old pro gamers returning to the GSL for SC2, it's impossible not to start wishing for a Boxer v Fruit Dealer final. Although, with the most recent buzz, Jaedong v Boxer could even be possible. That matchup could infact collapse the fabric of existence. | ||

I don't think or move any slower behind a computer than I did at 17, if anything I'm much faster because I've had 15 extra years of experience sitting behind a computer playing games. The only disadvantage to older gamers is free time. With equal time there should be little drop off. | ||

I know I was a better RTS gamer for sure at 17 rather than 27 lol thats a stupid myth surrounding esports, how would a gamer start slowing down by 27 when a professional athlete hits his peak at around 29-30, their jobs are also 10000000x more phisically intensive than gaming. the main advantage young players have is that their still innocent, meaning they focus all their energy on gaming without having any worrys, as opposed to a 27 year old who has to think about his life, future etc.,(which makes him lose motivation to play) if there was money behind esports i promise you the majority of gamers would be at least 20+ years old imo the most important difference is that when your gaming as a kid it still feels like fun, as u get older it starts feeling like a job.. and sadly were 1 generation behind before esports gets the $$ support that it needs in order for it to be considered somewhat mainstream | ||

I remember reading an article about a research concerning this years ago. | ||

Most gamers lose their skill after 25ish due to the fact that their eye hand coordination goes down, thus making it take longer for them to do the same actions as a 18-21 year old would. In sports that require intense eye hand coordination like Tennis or Ping Pong, you see that most players do not do well past the age of 26-27. Why? Because eye hand coordination degrades and they simply aren't that good anymore. Games take an even higher level of eye hand coordination. You do the math. | ||

But there is no seeding in GSL so we might as well not see boxer in gsl season 2 and for that matter Cool/Tester/NaDa/July etc. They all might end up facing eachother in the pre-lims. Just a friendly reminder, the first 3 "GSL"s are to create the seeds for 2011 GSLs which will be spaced further apart and given full production quality. So although there are no seeds during these seed generators, people like Cool and HopeTorture (Rainbow) will be seeded starting in 2011! | ||
