For his age he is 100% one of a very few in entry to top 500. It is very special to be that good at that age, though it is not uncommon or unheard off, when some players have already had 8-10 years of gaming experience at that age already.
Since this game is less about reactions and more about teamplay, communication and cooperation with multiple heroes, then yeah, since most of those things are actually attributed to an adult brain rather than a still developing young 14 year olds.
Congrats, thatâs definitely a great achievement at your age! And your tips are on point. Are you hoping to be a pro gamer?
So to prove my theory correct, you are dps main right?
There are probably more 30 y/o-somethings in OW than teenagers, so thatâs not surprising.
Then again, you can say you find more toxic 80 y/o-somethings than teenagers in OW, and well⌠gratz. People say all sorts of things on the forums.
I donât socialize with teenagers. Not my thing.
I only hope they are taking their education as seriously as the game, cause when they fail as an eSports âathlete,â they will need a fallback⌠hopefully not begging for donations on twitch⌠That never looks good on a resume.
Not sure that qualifies as an âachievementâ⌠what exactly was âachievedâ by being gay or female that a straight or male character didnât do? Get toxicity? I can guarantee you they most certainly didâŚ
OP is currently 3.6k, is it too early to call him a bust?
why is my rating decreasing with the amount of time I put into the game?
went from 3300 peak to 2300 (lowest ever, even when I first started playing in 2016 I was higher)
a lot of the times when Iâm about to win, suddenly a teammate inexplicably dcs and we lose instead, so instead of gaining 25SR I lose 25 SR, that is like a -50 SR punishment for no reason, and it happened to me many many times. how is that my fault?
I honestly doubt that
Well I would if this was 2016, now most teens have moved on and the grumpy 30 somethings remain 
Thereâs a low amount of anyone of any age at that rank. Itâs an achievement regardless. Even with an aimbot youâd need game sense, positioning, etc to get that high.
Could you be more ignorant? Being gay or female isnât a disadvantage the way not being fully matured is. People are in their mental and physical peak after age 14 so achieving that rank before you are fully developed is great.
You arenât fully developed at age 14. Kind of like âhey watch this 9 year old bench press 300lbsâ. Same thing with being olderââwatch this 80 year old do a backflipâ.
That DPS mains are the only ones who climb? Ignorant theory. You can climb and carry in any role in this game. The last time I looked, the top 100 of each region was overwhelmingly dominated by support and tank players. There were almost no DPS players in T100. Blame this on GOATS meta if you want, but that is even more reason you should be able to climb not playing DPSâthe meta we are in.
you are older arent youâŚXD burn
Youâre comparing a teenager playing video games to a child and old man doing physical activites that they shouldnât be doing at their age. Ok.
Iâd say most T500 (DPS players) are below 20
Its well known that in e-sports 15yo > 25yo.
25-28 is known to be a border-line for pro gaming in fast paced games like CS or SC.
25-28 are usually the break off point most of the time for some reasons though, for many other reasons it isn´t and those can dominate, experience/intelligence/knowledge and more are factors that can increase with time, also nerves and strategy heavily are impacted by years of experience. We see many pro CS players not quit at 25-28, some like Pasha first quit here at 30, when he has loads of things to fall back on and a family to take care off.
15>25. In some areas yes, but by far, a 25 year old, who has been doing the same things as a 15 year old for all of his life, will more than likely be far superior to the 15 year old.
the whole post was a troll you guys.
Tilting has nothing to do with your season rating.
Itâs such an old post too.
Well when your younger your dumber thatâs usually how itâs portrayed in real world. Your connection between being gay has nothing to do with intelligence
Thereâs a reason sports players in the 18-25 range put up better stats than players in the 14-18. Contenders players are younger and not generally as âgoodâ as OWL players. Your inability to grasp my point is concerning. Someone 14 doesnât have a fully developed brain, isnât at their physical peak, presumably somewhat immature, etc. 4.3k at any age, experience, etc is impressive but being a kid is that much more impressive.
Thatâs what we like to call a stereotype. There isnât tons of evidence to this statement.
Youâre concerning me on where youâre going with this. Development of a brain has nothing to do with gaming.
Development of brain absolutely has to do with gaming, at least this one. Playing at a high level requires game sense, decision making, remembering lots of data, coordinating, communication. These arenât all things that a 14 year old would excel at compared to a slightly more mature individual. This isnât Pong, thereâs thousands of things to know to play this game at a high level. If you donât understand that or agree with it, Iâm going to hazard a guess that youâre a low ranking player.
I donât play Comp. So⌠yeahâŚ
