Is every female pro who gets signed by a team grand master? No. He has reason to ask, given the history of female SC2 players on teams.

Please, be realistic. A lot of teams realize that it's a good publicity stunt, and in some cases (as we have seen in the past) they will pick up less skilled players who are female. You don't ever see players of that skill level get picked up who are male.

Congrats to Quantic for signing a female player that can actually have a hope of competing if she puts in the time.

I was really getting sick and tired of "Foreign Team A has signed Diamond Level PrettyGirl B" and acting like they picked said player for her skill rather than her looks.

Furthermore, congratulations on staying away from a sensationalist title like "The amazingly beautiful female gamergurl Flo joins Quantic"

Very impressive and classy by Quantic. Good luck in the future Flo!

This myth that female players get picked based on looks is hilarious because for male players, there's an arms race to look as fugly as possible so every female that takes a shower once a day looks like a supermodel in comparison.

Or we could just trust that Quantic knows what they're doing and won't be signing bronze leaguers.

For those that really wish to know, she is masters. I don't know what rank though.

This is cool. Females never did to well in BW which was a damned shame. I hope she can compete at a high level, it sounds like she is putting in the time so let's hope for the best.

Were not allowed to ask info about unknown players, and if they are not diamond its okay to be part of a big team like Quantic/Razer/Slayers. if they are girls. TL the only place where being a female gets you special privileges.

Note: Im not criticising her, but the community.

In his defense, their has been an established trend of females who aren't top players being brought onto pro teams. Flo is sadly the exception and not the rule. No need to be passive aggressive; Bobster wasn't passing judgement on this decision, rather just looking for pertinent information so he could establish his opinion.

She's been to multiple big name tournaments, I'm certain I've seen her at MLG at least once and probably many times. She also got silver in ZOWIE DIVINIA, losing to ST_Aphrodite who is on a Korean pro team.

This is relatively old news, since she decked her stream out with quantic logos and icons a while ago, but congratulations either way. I don't know why they waited so long for the announcement, doesn't matter I guess. Good luck to Flo and Quantic!
