Not to take anything away from Flo, she probably is a good SC2 player since she got picked up by a pro team. But since there are so few female pro gamers it isn't always obvious that they are high GM players. It's therefore interesting to know what her skill level is on the ladder so that one can compare her ladder rank with our own ladder rank. So when she plays some "famous" player and perhaps beat them you could go "oh, I can beat player X as well. My ladder rank is about the same as Flo". | ||

That, combined with calling it a "novelty" gives the impression that you don't like them. And again, I say that it isn't a stunt because those male players cannot enter female tournaments. Thus, your argument about other, better, male gamers is irrelevant. Please use punctuation, type words out fully, and try a capital letter or two when you type if you want to be taken seriously. Nowhere did I get personal with you, and by the end of your post I can literally see the froth dripping off the screen. Completely off topic here but I feel like you won your discussion with whomever it may be. That being said congratulations to Flo, If i recall she is a pretty good player. Perhaps I am wrong so don't quote me on that but from what I have heard and seen she is pretty good. Good luck to Quantic Gaming and Flo both. | ||

"Oh noes, a female player I've probably never heard of joined a team that I probably don't care about! I am getting so angry that I must make stupid posts calling the team a joke and questioning the skill level of the player!" Yes, they recruited her partly because she's a girl. Yes, there are probably many players better than she is that Quantic isn't picking up. No, this will not negatively impact your life in any way, nor could it possibly be bad for ESPORTS. It boggles my mind that there exist people who are actually enraged at the thought of females joining professional teams and playing in their own tournaments. | ||

edit: If anything, it's a good sign that people are doing publicity stunts. It shows their something to be gained by them: if "selling out" can occur, someone must be buying. | ||

As much as I could somehow understand why people were hating in other "Girl joins a team" threads, if there's a foreign girl who deserves to be on a good team based on her skill it's definitely her, so congrats  | ||
