EPTOf course it's nice the girl from SA also tried to do her best. Although she doesn't seem very serious about SC2. ^^

For the record, she was 1 of 2 female players in SA that entered for this. I don't know why they bother. ~_~ | ||

She is Rank 15 GM on NA, if it means anything. | ||

If you look at her match history you'll see she's been playing practice league. Complete joke tournament lol. For the record, she was 1 of 2 female players in SA that entered for this. I don't know why they bother. ~_~ We bother because there is a bigger picture. Sure, only 2 ladies entered the qualifier this year, but this opens doors for the years to come and perhaps opens eSports to the masses here. This is going to generate a lot of exposure for our industry as this will make it into multiple leading publications(print and online) and will hopefully help to bridge the gap that we currently have. Small steps forward to having eSports on the same stage as cricket, rugby and soccer in the future. It is an exciting prospect. | ||

Small steps forward to having eSports on the same stage as cricket, rugby and soccer in the future. It is an exciting prospect. Sure, more publicity is good, but I feel to anyone who knows anything about SC2/eSports, this just makes the tournament look like a joke. And it'll be hard for any journalist writing about it to prevent the same effect from carrying over into their articles unless they really blur the details. It's not like they can turn it into some sort of heroic 'underdog story' when our player has barely touched the game. Well, I guess they could, but it would be kinda dishonest.  I'm normally 100% supportive of things like female tournaments but this is really an extreme case. If MSSA forked out for this, I think that money could have been much better spent. | ||
