She switched to toss, but GSTL rules made her play T (Because she registered as T).
Pretty understandable to not do so good if you play a race that you stopped playing a while ago.

Perhaps Eve could make a splash by being the first female to win a broadcast game (I assume flo vs incontrol wouldn't have been broadcast).

Scarlett is a biologically male transgender. Scarlett is very good, but is not biologically female.
Let's not diminish any future achievements from women by comparing them to someone who is biologically/genetically male. It would be huge if Eve can really compete in leagues like GSTL and win games for her team.
Scarlett would also win an arm wrestling match against Eve, but it would be no indication that Eve is weak by female standards.

I have no idea what you are arguing about O_o I was saying how wonderful it would be if Eve is serious about being competetive. I would very much like to see a female progamer take some televised matches in a serious setting like GSTL.
Someone told me that Scarlett has already done so, not knowing Scarlett is actually transgender. There is nothing wrong with being transgender, but a transgender biological male is not the same as a female.

It's actually relevant. But let's be nice and just say we'd like Eve to be the first girl to win a GSL-sanctioned match some day.

You're spreading hate about Scarlett under the guise of concern trolling. "Biologically male" is not a meaningful identifier, and if you knew even the smallest thing about biology (beyond whatever you learned in high school), you'd know that's true.

I accept people for who they are.
You have gone completely off the deep end by claiming having male or female genetics isn't meaningful.

You clearly don't know the first thing about trans* issues or you wouldn't even be arguing. Scarlett is female, end of story.

Eve winning even a single match would be a huge breakthrough for women.
