1) A while ago, you didn't look at all dominant on Rainbow's stream; however, now you've turned into a complete gosu in Starcraft 2. What do you think factored into your drastic improvement in play?

2) Do you have any plans after you're done playing Starcraft 2?

What is her favorite unit in the game? How much did she play other races before deciding on Terran? Did she even give the other races a fair shot?

I'm not sure if anyone's brought it up, but if you could ask if she has heard of or respects TossGirl? Or, otherwise, does she have any female role models in the e-sports community she feels encourages her? Or does she feel like it's all on her shoulders?

re-adding color and food then..




now I have no idea if I want to ask about song and animal anymore :|


Jesus you fold like a wet a towel. Seriously, asking dumb questions is dumb.

Ask what her favorite matchup to play is and favorite matchup to watch maybe



why dont u just ask both sc2 questions and non sc2 questions? :D
just ask every question that sounds good, sc2 related or not!

i think that would be the best ^_^

umm....you ask us not to ask any shallow questions and YET you will ask her generic stuff like favourite colour and food.....come on.....

1) What kind of challenges female progamers must face in order to succeed in a male dominated industry and do you think female progamers will one day be able to compete with male progamers at the highest level??
2) A number of teams have recruited female progamers recently. What are your thoughts on teams that recruit girls soley by their gender and appearance and not by their actual talent?
3) What is your opinion on booth babes, like the ones in the OSL, in general? Would you be offended if the tournament you are playing at has them?
4) Do you know Tossgirl personally? I would love ot see you in a showmatch against her.

Where did I say not to ask shallow questions?

I only said that I'm not asking relationship based questions nor inappropriate questions

ask her this

"Do you think Males benefits some gene that makes it unfair to compete vs Women?"

then if she says "no"

you can follow up with the question:

"So why should Women have their own tournaments and prizes and get contracts instead of Males with the same amount of skills (and in alot of cases more) as the ladies?"

User was temp banned for this post.


The answer is obvious, though not necessarily the best solution: it's affirmative action/Title IX in eSports. All that you've mentioned is an attempt to get women into playing SC2 where, for some reason or another, they haven't been represented in as high a proportion as men.

Getting a temporary ban for this is ridiculous. It's a fair question and I'm interested in Aphrodite's response. Even though its likely to be something I just stated above, it's better than asking about her favorite color.

Censoring reasonable discussion is like...well, everyone knows the parallels.

Couple questions:

1. If you were able to go to any foreign events, do you think you would be able to place well?

2. Rainbow is slated to enter the military soon. How will this effect your progaming career?

3. Many viewers saw the account you use to play NA ladder beating Destiny on his stream. Destiny claimed that this was Rainbow and not you, can you confirm/deny this?

4. Do you think you, right now, have any realistic hopes of qualifying with your current skill? There are many great players waiting for a chance to get into code A, how do you feel about having to compete with such a large, skilled playerbase about breaking through?

5. How many hours do you practice a day, and do you see yourself getting better?

That question is offensive, confrontational, and worst of all, remarkly stupid. Most people won't stop you if you hate on women online, they'll just think you're immature. However, that "question" walked into the fields of idiocy and the asker just looks like a member of the occupy movement.

INcontrol went to MLGs he knew he wouldn't even place in because it would help his team. E-sports is a show in the end, teams make it happen, and sponsors pay teams. The people that have the naniwa mindset of winning aren't thinking straight.

It should be pretty dang obvious why women have different tournaments. Zowie Divina got what, 300k viewers in China? We can't scrounge that up for MLG. Why do you need a progamer and not a 8th grader with an inkling of thought to answer that question for you?

To be honest, if E-sports was all-female, I think it would be seeing equal to/more success than it is now.

1) Without trying to be humble, how does she think her skill level compares to that of the average Korean Code S, Code A, and Code B Terran player? And how long does she think she'll have to play and practice to reach the Code S level?

2) Does she get annoyed by fans complimenting her on her appearance rather than her skill at SC2? Does she think this will change if she does well in a major tournament?

3) What does an average day of practice for her look like? From getting out of bed to getting back in.

4) What are her thoughts on the current balance between the 3 Starcraft races?

I noticed that you didn't answer the question.
