I don't understand how anyone could have a problem with this. I'm all for spotlighting female gamers, hopefully that will bring more into our community, and that's a good thing right?

I agree with sueco. This stupid discussion always starts when there is anything related to female gamers.

I won't just copy&paste his post but people really should stop freaking out. Female gamers will always will receive more attention. At least when now there is so few of them. It's a completely normal behaviour.

Congrats to flo!

Good to see female gamers doing their thing. Hopefully we'll see some ladies qualifying for the big tournaments in the future.

i care because i share (presumably) the same desire as suna does (equality among the genders for gamers), but she goes about it in the worst possible way.

embracing equality among genders helps ALL of us. it helps the community tremendously in just about every way. female cups hurt it. it says, basically, "you cannot win the normal tournament; we need to make a special one where only players of this lower caliber can enter."

why? skill is skill. presence of a penis does not mean you get +100 APM. presence of a vagina does not mean you miss chrono timings or larva injects. why segment it?


how can you not see how laughably misguided this is




nice argument. really in depth rebuttal.

Loved the tournament! Hopefully there will be more like these, and these may work as a "platform" to get more female gamers into the pro scene!

Its only bad players that hate on female gaming because they envy girls playing tournaments while they can't.

Then they try to bring up reasons that sound logical about why there should be no female tournaments, it divides the community and all that blabla

This is tiring and prevents the esports community from maturing.
On the other hand, the exact same misogynist, non-sportsmanship, envy attitude is present in other sports, too (i.e. football), so we probably have to live with the haters for a while.

I've yet to find someone really succesful in his sports who is against female tournaments.







No matter how hot it gets, sooner or later there's a cool breeze coming in.

Congrats to flo. I hope that there will be more tournaments, everything that broadens the scene is good for the scene as far as I'm concerned - so keep up the good work.

People who are successful can't just voice their opinions, especially in such a controversial issue. Even if a pro is against these events, he can't say it publicly or everyone would hate him.

I don't think there is anything wrong with tournament like this. It may give girls confidence to try and go pro. And i think most of the people would agree that having pro sc2 players would be pretty cool.
