Correlation between rank/ability and age
I saw this article on polygon about being too old to play league professionally. Do you believe that your age has an effect on your ability to play?

I think it's much more likely that people past their mid-20s have better things to do with their time.
I'm about to turn 26 and I've found that I'm absolutely garbage in terms of video games compared to my 16-20 year old self.
I felt like that was the way I was going for a while. I was busy with university and didn't play much and when I did play it always felt like everything was harder than it used to be. Then when I had some free time after graduating I went back and played those older games and realized two things:
I really wasn't that good as a kid/teenager.
Games seem harder as an adult because I hold myself to a higher standard. Single player games, for example, I would play on normal difficulty as a kid, now I generally only play on whatever the highest difficulty is.
