I get you made a joke, but KR is better at the top-end, their Diamond is no better than anywhere else.
I haven't been watching the stream, did the FXOTeam account (the one they use to dick around with on stream) ever make it out of Diamond?

she'll probably work for slayers and not actually play; similar to how Linda Lao did some modelling for razer and pretty much disappeared after that.
EDIT: I would love it if they trained her and got her up to grandmasters but if they really wanted a girl on their team, couldnt they have had a tourney or something so they could've at least got a masters player?

Too bad she plays terran so there's no circumstances I can ever hope any terran player wins anything ever unless they're on my fantasy team.

This thread is All About Eve. I wanted to write this word joke all day now. I resisted, because it is so bad. But not for long. There you go.
I prefer this name to SlayersRosebud btw. =__=

I saw her on the bench and thought it was Cella's girlfriend :D

FXOBoss said that there are diamond players in Korea who can make it out of the MLG open bracket . . . .

The slayers boys will find their supply of tissue dwindling mysteriously more quickly.

I love all the speculation in this thread.
People take "scouted for her skill and looks" and extrapolate it to "she's an awful diamond level fangirl hired to keep Jessica company."

Ah, the poor girl has allergies. That's really sad.
I'd recommend SlayerS get aloe tissues for her nose so that she doesn't get irritation. But, of course, she probably knows that.

Well if he said it, it must be true

Otherwise she will get and probably deserve all the "shit" she will get for getting special treatment. I don't think anyone can blame her for taking the opportunity though. I think if anyone on this forum was given an offer at SlayerS they would take it instead of saying "I'm not good enough for you guys" and declining.
Funny how it works, I can't recall Torch getting shit for his special treatment. Not that he deserved it but neither do Eve.
Cool move by SlayerS, I hope she'll do well.

That comment from SlayerSJessica is really, really dumb. I read over about 3 pages of this thread at random, and there is an insane amount of idiotic sexism. But with that comment, the people who aren't sexist really have no ground on which to insist that the sexist people are wrong. If she's picked just because they think having a pretty girl will get them fans, then they deserve every bit of hate they're getting for it. If she really is a legit skill/talent/potential-based recruit, then this just means every early setback she has is going to result in ten times the hate it otherwise would have.

Not true. Considering the fact that masters consists of the top 2% of diamond it creates a limit on how many people can get in. Diamond in KR is without a doubt better than in other regions.

Even if she isn't "pro" when considered among male players, she will surely be very competitive in female leagues. I hope she learns a lot from her teammates and inspire more women to become interested in SC2. I am personally inspired to see women enter the male dominated and competitive world of ESports.
you totally summed up my thoughts.
boxer is yet again evolving esports. what a guy.

I hope this she doesn't distract the slayers players too much. I don't doubt that she can get to be a very good Terran, with the amount of Terran practice partners she will get, but is Terran players really what Slayers need?
|
Maybe it was a slight misstatement on Jessica's part? Maybe that she was chosen because of skills and that her play looked good? Or maybe that she also looked good as an added benefit? Seems an awfully strange statement to make, otherwise.

Maybe because it was so new and nobody had heard of/found a way of recognizing it yet?
Diamonds can be smart, but ideas are conceptual, and a diamond player, even damn koreans, aren't going to go toe to toe in matches against their betters. I think it should be said that in Korea, the higher up you look in the ladders, skill increases exponentially.

She is really cute! I hope her game skills match her looks!  If that happens, then we could be seeing the first female Code S champion soon
