Generally, most BW players have fallen "out of their prime" (stopped doing as well) past age 25,26.
i find it much easier to explain their "fall out of their prime" as due to increased competition and decreased motivation rather than some direct effect of their age to be honest.

Although JongMi could be the exception..
The same way foreigners would never beat Koreans at any legitimate tournament, right? I mean that was the universal truth a few months ago.

Stop spouting bullshit.
GL to her!
Agree. There is no inherent biological advantage for males in gaming. Cultural and societal pressures make it seem like girls are "worse" than guys at games because so few of them play SC let alone pursue pro-gaming. The cold hard fact is she is high masters in Korea, something many foreigner pros would struggle to attain. It's pretty exciting to see SC2 generating a healthy female player base.
This is SO awesome! Female sc2 pro gaming is finally starting to grow. I definitely think Divina helped encouraging that growth a lot. Even those who've criticized Divina for doing female only tournament, in a game that doesn't really favour males in any biological manner, must now admit it was needed.

That would actually hold true in a 1998 game. But SC2 is different. There is a 2010 WCG video of a white man (infernal) frantically trying to keep up with his opponent until he eventually cracks under pressure. His opponent is all relaxed ( most likely looked like a joke to him ) and is so much ahead of him in expansions within 10minutes of the game.

Are you serious? Does gaming not require reflexes, focused vision as opposed to peripheral vision, killer instinct, all systemically evolved into the male genome and out of the female genome in favor of other traits which I don't want to go into here, over millions of years?
