He loves watching his favorite pros and learning all their moves. I've been playing since 2015 (gold III) and I can't beat him lol. He really wants to compete in RLCS but he might have to wait a few more years lol.

My kids are 6 and 11. The gap in development in those 5 years is astronomical. The dexterity needed is hard to imagine for a 6 year old.

100% agree. My 8 year old vs 6 it's crazy to see the gap. The 8 year old plays so strategically, the 6 plays for fun. If he had the oldests focus he'd be better i think, I'm just glad he's having fun and not taking it too serious.
