then the players can give you that extra 5% that you need to be able to beat the other team and lift the trophy, right? And I think with guys like Niko and Monacy, obviously, I mean, you have that ceiling and you have that potential. I don't know if you have that potential with 9-10 and Senzu. I don't know if Voxic and Xantaris can actually play on that high of a level on the stage consistently.
Exactly. Exactly. So how long are done with that?

Also, I think age. I had this thing with ages. I saw that, yeah. It's like it matters in some sense. For example, these are not young guys as well. These are, what, 27, 8-year-old players. So they're mature as humans as well where it shouldn't have even if โ let's say they were a little bit inexperienced on the stage with Islam, whatever, it shouldn't affect them as much, right?

Like it's obviously going to affect someone more who is 18, 19 years old, who hasn't been around as much. It's just like everything you experience it in a different way. So I think that's also what doesn't get him out of a bind. But now someone is going to say, oh, yeah, but then that's the perfect excuse for the Mongols because they're so young. Well, sure, to some extent.

But I also that's where I also don't believe that age matters all that much, because after a couple of times, you either have it or you don't have it. Right. I think there's no that much, you know, young and old players. There's like good and bad players. And that's it. I think the problem with why you don't have that many star players that are 30 plus is twofold.

First of all, guys who are now 30 plus have not been when they were 20, 21, 22, 25, have been putting in the same amount of work or haven't been working consistently on their game, which is why you see them drop off. And the problem with Counter-Strike and why people fall off as they get older isn't that their reaction speed gets slower. and their aim has lost its edge, and that's why they suck.

No, it's everything else. Look how many times the game has changed. Look how much different rifles were buffed than nerfed. Look at the movement. Look at how you peak people now. Like, if you see... let's say Niko playing, how he clears angles, he does it differently now than he did in CSGO, for example, three years ago.

And he did it three years ago differently than how he did it six years ago, because the meta always changes and you need to be able to keep up with it, right? For some people, you know, priorities start shifting and they don't put as much time in the game. And maybe it's things like that, right? So I think that's one of the reasons.
