    Wrong in DotA and AOE 2.

    That being said there is some advantage to being young, but experience is quite impactful in less twitchy games.

      Yeah, I guess it depends on the game a lot. I occasionaly watch Rocket League. It’s just pure reaction, muscle memory and quick movements, so basically no one in the top matches are above the early twenties.

        I think the biggest problem in rocket league is the amount of practice needed to maintain a pro level of play. Once these kids grow up and need to start handling adult life, rocket league doesnt really fit in.

        I think if it were possible or reasonable to pursue professional rocket league as a career, we would see older players.
