Sweet, more token females getting sponsored.

That said, she does sound a baller all-round, but it's hardly as if she'll get the time to practice and be top tier if she's working on a PhD surely?

Cool, that's nice for her. At first I used to thing that she was just some random girl riding along on the fact that she was female, but after seeing her in some smaller tournaments I acually think that while she may not be the best player out there, she certainly isn't bad and considering she's currently working on a PhD it's even more obvious that she must have some sort of talent and a lot of commitment to remain as good as she is.

I'm really happy for her, she deserves it. Furthermore, not being the only girl in the team is a huge boost for her. Quantic could become the girl power house :p

What team did she used to be on?

Absolute legends


Quantic needs to proeprly start marketing their players as individuals rather than lumping them together and just hoping one succeeds in results.

They already had great players before the Vile merge, now with the vile merge they have a lot of toys in the toybox, but keeps saying: "We have ntohing to play with"


I agree 100%. Illusion is one of the most marketable players out there, being incredibly good, young North American player. If they market him well he could become the face of the NA scene in a year or two. Also, players like Sase and Spanishiwa are both well known. I would love to see them do promotional showmatches showcasing those players and expanding the fan bases of their other less-known players.


Damn I didn't even register Spanishiwa being on Quantic. Yeah maybe they should step up their marketing some.

seems like Quantic barely used Flo in anything important...and as far as I know she hasn't gotten a lot better. So they sign another female to make another splash for 'sex-appeal?' Shoulda just went with that aliuj girl lol


She doesn't stream often but when she does it's pretty clear she has improved a lot from living in the Quantic House.

"solely in the fact they have vaginas" means her SC2 skills, personality and looks are irrelevant. That is pretty naive to think.

Good pickup by Quantic. I wasn't going to post anything initially, but just want to run a little against the rampant misogyny in this thread with a short recap of my initial reaction.

I remembered Maddelisk's name pop up occasionally the the middle-region of brackets in big tournaments like Dreamhack - though I'd never seen her play since she was far from the main stage. So my initial thought on reading the post headline was "oh, cool, Quantic still has the money to pick up new players. And they're grabbing an up-and-comer with potential. I always hope that works out for a team."

Only after reading the main thread did I find out Maddelisk is one of StarCraft's small pool of competitive female players. Didn't change my opinion of the signing.

TL;DR: Ignore all the Negative Nancys above.
