Hey,
I was curious who currently is the highest ranked league position by age that you know or have seen playing ranked this season? (We can count the last one, as the season has just started).
I don't need to know exact ages, as I can fully respect that this could be personal, but a range would be cool to just know.
I'm pushing my 40 myself (💀) and currently Gold 4. I could have been higher but simply didn't play enough games (until this season) due to family commitments, career, etc.
This is a fun inquiry, not looking to paint fingers or flame, be a troll. I hope one day to match them, as I get older.
(For those curious about my experience in the league as a more mature adult:
The age stigmatising I see, mostly on streaming platforms is completely unwarranted. I, myself, am actually much better mechanically, mentally than I was when I played in my 20s (I started league just after season 3 worlds).
Having played for so long and through so many meta'a, patches and diff game states, I am pretty much mentally immune to most of the negative stuff in league, I am human so I'm not 100% perfect but I prefer to give suggestions or what to do and if it continues, I mute.
One thing I've noticed with my age, I can't actually spam games like I once did. In my 20s, I could easily spam 5 games at once. Now, I actually need to take regular breaks after max 2 games, this could just be me though.
Muscle memory is absolutely unreal and sometimes I feel like the hand from the Addams family replaces my hand and plays like a Masters pro, here and there 😂
