With a little T&A, the support from we hyper-nerds pours in. We don't even care about the lame-ass logo anymore! | ||

They're glorified cheerleaders. | ||

They're glorified cheerleaders. why so much hate? id put a good sum of my money that the female players (at least aphrodite and flo) could beat destiny and incontrol handily in a bo3. sure, they contribute a ton to the community and for that we are all grateful but stop living in this dreamland that they have top level skills and then get upset because you cant handle females entering the scene. after reading the translation i think its awesome that she can follow her dream and more power to her edit: in the end it dont matter if they are top class. this is still a business. if the bosses over at ST determine that this signing get ST more chinese followers and revenue instead of some korean GM who might win 1 tournament now and again then they made absolutely the correct decision. some of you romantics might be upset by this but it happens in every other industry | ||

Some of you guys are just jealous, even if other female progamers aren't doing that well it doesn't mean that it's going to be the same for all of them, you call her mediocre but have you seen her play? Anyway best of luck to her. | ||

id put a good sum of my money that the female players (at least aphrodite and flo) could beat destiny and incontrol handily in a bo3. ^ Any of the signed female progamers can beat a whole lot of their male counterparts in tournaments. Talking shit about them just because no one of them has win a major one like MLG or Dreamhack [yet] is pretty low. They are quite obviously at least on the level of the average progamer. Whether they - or ANY other signed player - can reach higher than that, only time and their own effort will tell. GSL is a whole another level of game, and 99% of the current non-korean progamers could not even win a single game there. How many non-koreans are still in the running for Code S this season? That's right, one ... in this light, demanding that a signed female progamer instantly be GSL level is beyond ridiculous. | ||
