A tournament for female players? Makes me wish my play was better so I could join something like that too! It's strange to see a stage so pink and girlified like that, but it's a nice change to see.

at first i thought the prize pool was to big for such an event but then when hot bid interviewed one of the female players at mlg providence he said that the chinese stream had 300k ppl watching. Which would totally justify a 10k prizepool heck thats more viewers than mlg

Thank you so much for sharing this! I watch MLG and GSL on occasion, but I've never looked at the stage and thought, 'hey, you know what, I could be there doing this. That could be /me/.' And now I have.

...I need to go ladder.

One thing to note is that this tournament almost pays out as much as other MLG stops O_O

congratz to rainbow and his girlfriend!

Personally, I hope we see more girls in big tournaments someday. There are seriously no reason why they couldn't make it to the top.

Female players in SC2 ..... will soon dominate the male scene Oo!!!

It'd be good to see a female player win a GSL, an MLG, and a DH in one season.

I think mad respect for generating such a sick tournament, but exclusively making it for females just makes me a little uneasy. I suppose it is the same idea as affirmative action? Women can be just as good or better than men but they haven't been given the chance?

Tbh idk.

I do know that this tournament rocks and I look forward to seeing everyone play on mainstages in future tournaments. Women of starcraft I salute you!

2rax fighting!! Pretty cool that you got enough exposure to be chosen as a caster for this

Thanks =D. Yeah, I had a blast! I was very lucky and feel very grateful about this amazing opportunity.

I do read most of the comments and I will take in consideration what people say about my casting... If anyone has any constructive criticism, it would be appreciated if you could PM it to me, as I want to improve as much as possible. =)
