IM 40 and diamond in toss, platin in zerg and terran (got 160-200 apm per match) - so age isn`t as important factor in sc2.

I'm 43, play zerg. Last season I was D3 but I think I'm really P1. I sent a friend request. I think.

Look forward to hearing from any older players, particularly any in their 50's.
Cheers.



if you have lower league players or does not mind to play team games with lower league players then i'd like to join. But i'm only silverish, so don't want to drag down the skill level.
Why so serious?

I'd like to know what games 40+ players enjoyed before they got into the RTS genre. Was a game like M.U.L.E. a big favourite?

In the 80s I loved shoot-em-up games, similar to Sky Force (but earlier). My first strategy (?) game was SimCity I guess. Only if you do not count the first Metal Gears which I also loved.
In the early 90's it was all about RPGs for me, especially the Ultima series, up to U7.
My life for Aiur. You got a piece of me, baby. IIIIIIiiiiiii.

i can't believe i do not have chronic pain considering the amount of sc, sc2, aoe2, lol, dota, hon wc3, flash flash revolution especially, i have played. especially since i do not have great posture.

tho the most strenuous at one time is putting 2 fingers into a certain thing until that certain thing goes insane and may or may not cry but that is not as frequent as gaming lol

I feel like the point of using a metaphore is lost if the metaphor is way grosser than the actual thing.

i think you're mistaking my statement for a euphemism. in that case you'd be correct

Lucky man. My other main hobby is trying to be an 80s guitar shredding hero so in combination it’s broken my wrists

My cousin is 51 and still plays. I sent him a link to this thread. I'm 38 and mostly play Overwatch now. I made it to top 100 in Warcraft III and top 400 in WoL back when they first came out.

38, just got back into sc2 after a hiatus.

Nice to go back down memory lane of 90s games! I played mainly Warcraft 1, dune 2, transport tychoon, colonisation, warlords and some platform and shooter games.

I am expecting gaming to be a common nursery home activity pretty soon! In 50 years, we'll all sit in out wheelchairs cannon rushing and watching Top Gun!

I'm 51 and would like to join. I started playing video games on the original IBM PC green monochrome monitor with Adventure. My first console was the Intellvision. I quit Starcraft2 many years ago due to frustration of losing but recently picked it up. I now just play for fun. I don't care if I lose as long as I'm having fun and trying to learn a little each time on the complexity of the game. The first time a Liberator flew into my base, I was like "what the hell is that thing?" I was originally Plat Terran, Gold Protoss and now Silver Zerg. I've been to 3 Blizzcons and I'm usually one of the older gamers there but young at heart! SC2 tourneys are my biggest thrills at Blizzcons. I play now to keep my fingers nimble and my mind sharp.

That's awesome, finally someone else over 50. Welcome aboard, i'm sure you will have a lot fun in the Clan as all guys are great people.
" The first time a Liberator flew into my base, I was like "what the hell is that thing? " ROFL I know exactly how you feel
Look forward to having a game or 2 with you.

And yes remaining young at heart is key to not growing old !

Hi Everyone,
When you send your Friend Request, please do so through the SC2 game and not the Blizz app. If it is sent through the Blizz app I cannot invite you to the Clan. I thought it was just me accepting FR's while in the Blizz app, but it seems that if the FR is sent or accepted via the Blizz I can not invite you to the Clan.
So send your FR while in the SC2 game

Also is there anyone who is a current Clan member from the US region that I can promote to an "Officer" so they can Invite new members to the Clan ? As I'm in Australia I'm not always available to do so with the time difference.
It will also mean that players wanting to Join will need to send you a FR as well in order for you to Invite them.

Wait to hear from anyone who is Interested in doing this
