Hmmm, wonder if this will encourage other female gamers, or just cement the notion that girl are for looking, not gaming. :/

I'm very afraid that it's the former, since they took girls that have basically no experience nor skill in the game. It appears that considering females as normal persons is still pretty far from happening in pro teams
I like starcraft

Women as obvious mascots in 2015... that's just so backwards. Somebody go make a thread about this on reddit, collect juicy comments, post them on SRS and let the ensuing shitstorm give MVP what they rightfully deserve.

I am far from supporting "keyboard feminism" and I think people getting easily offended about anything related to gender is pretty silly. However this is light years further down to center of the Silly Galaxy.

Eh, just take gender out of the equation and think about it as if MVP picked up three part-timers.... yeah, don't expect anything


The problem is that you cannot take out the gender in this, since it is the only focus of this article. I find that poor taste and unnecessary.

I don't approve of this because I was brought up in a gaming culture that smiles only on the champions of competitive videogames and proclaims the equality of the sexually dimorphic faculties pertaining to the act of becoming one such champion.

I am thus reluctant to believe this is a good decision on any level except as a desperate publicity stunt and an assault on the notion that progaming is a profession that is concerned primarily with videogame skill. In which case, well done MVP. My illusion is shattered, and the female role in the progaming industry is, shall we say, the more-nuanced one?

edit: I do hope this opens the way for male progamesingdancers, since we as a community no longer care as much about tournament results.

You just suggested people should be shitstormed by internet mob because their business practice does not match your standards (in a different culture no less!). You are bona fide keyboard SJW, no use to pretend otherwise

Let's be real, they won't see any play-time. It's a PR move. Aphrodite is arguably the only Korean female progamer to have done much if anything in the SC2 competitive scene.
