wasn't aphrodite a legit good player?

she used to stream, did quite well on Korean ladder. not GM but top masters


Which is FAR from being able to compete.


She actually was GM! I remember playing her and thinking "that wasn't the real Aphrodite." and I turned on her stream after the game to check and it was.

She can certainly compete in online cups. Not sure if you'd consider that 'pro' but she's the closest thing the female SC2 scene has.

if female are getting signed, I hope Jin Air signs Saint, aka Maru-girl, next. She already has a shirt even.

They must be quite talented to be able to pursue careers as both singers and progamers. In other news, on Monday I will seek to begin my career as both a pro golfer and an astronaut - wish me luck.

Yes. The low gravity is basically like the hyberbolic time chamber of golf training.

Well let's hope they're actually good.

Aphrodite looks better than all 3 combined though

No, I mean this Maru girl who played in WSL.



She wears a Jin Air shirt and tries to play exactly like Maru, it's so cute.

Don't ask me how I know this, but the team's sponsorship by IB Sports was worth at least 125,000 USD yearly.

Sponsoring these battle-vixen keyboard warriors probably wasn't initially in the deal, but was definitely a product thereof.

On the one hand its really nice to see teams picking up more female players.


On the other hand...
"...are going to start their career both as singers and progamers."

Wait what? How does that even work?

I don't understand this much at all. Why would you get 2 non-players and a Gold zerg to replace a high master (sometimes GM) player? I guess that the singing part of their contract is going to be their primary focus. Is this how Choya is going to help fund the team? Heck, Aphrodite won the MSI WSL 2015, and I don't think she dropped a map in the process.

Why? Are they generally better players, more interesting to watch?

On the one hand, it's great that we're seeing more female pro-gamers. On the other hand... pro-gaming takes an awful lot of dedication, and so does singing. Are they going to be focusing on one or the other, or be mediocre at both? I question their dedication.
Behold, wonderous rapidity!
