*Name: Kathryn ''FemFxWarrden'' (theWarrden) *Preferred race: Terran, formally Zerg *League: Wood/Bronze :-D *How did you get involved in BW/SC2 : As a spectator I've been involved in SC2 since the beta and this being only my second delve into the world of eSports so it didn't take me long to get as obsessed with it as I am. One day last year I felt brave enough to try the game myself and this coincided with my son being born so as you can imagine I was busy lol. I picked it up again to play in March time but never stopped watching even in hospital i was getting updates on how SC2 things were going. It's opened doors into other games too which I wouldn't have found before like LoL for example so no I'm not an "SC2Purist" but I'm eSports all the way till the end :-) *By which team/player/caster? are you most inspired: Dignitas is my first choice since they are british of course, them as bigger team but also my own Team Fem-Fx there is talent to be found everywhere and not necessarily in playing you just need to look. Player that inspires me has to be White-Ra the amount of times not just in game but in life I end up quoting him 'No GG No Skill' the guy just seems so sound he appreciates not just his fans but his sponsors anyone who helped put him where he is gets a smile, I hope to shake his hand one day. Caster wise it would have to be in SC2 anyway, Totalbiscuit I got to meet him at i43 this weekend just gone and I didn't know what to say other than how proud I am of him. From where he's come from on a small internet radio website about WoW to here, he just is entertainment all the way. * What would you ultimately like to see the future hold in regards to female players? Well I would hope that more females break into the popular section of SC2 where we truly mix, in the NASL for example one day it would be nice to see not just a mix of races competing but a mix of genders too, look at the MLG Open Bracket more females getting in there all the time. *What do you do in your time when you are not playing or watching esports? eSports, a Student and my family basically, when I say it has consumes my life for no return I'm not kidding lol I'm so passionate to find my place in eSports where I can help it grow even more whatever that may be I will find it. *If you're in team, what team are you in and what is your role with them? As above states I am indeed I am podcaster for Team Fem-Fx and currently every Saturday 22:00 CEST I bring the eSports world the Slag Pits (those times may change soon though were still ironing out the kinks). *How old are you & how long have you been playing BW/SC2? 24 & 13 months *If you could do 1 thing in regards to BW/SC2, what would you do and why? Get some of the great british talent out there into the more international stuff (we've got some good females too ;-) *Role in the community? Actually too much at times :-D like I say I do Slag Pits every Saturday for Team Fem-Fx and we may be expanding into other games like LoL ;-) Then there's Graphic and Web Design which I'm doing as much as possible for eSports (after all its where my degree is going to be) my active projects are for two of our members Kelly Milkies and Maelys Dang. Also I've done some casting with VampireLady and Team CiG then there's organising Casters Cup (Coming Soon). ![[image loading]](http://slagpits.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/20110827-073200.jpg) | ||

Prides logs remind me of every girl only CS clan I ever encountered. Gonna have to agree with the nay sayers once again. The girl only stuff seems to be counter intuitive. It just segregates you even more, while drawing nothing but creepers who want to shower you with attention into your community. But maybe that is considered a good thing to some people. | ||

I like how it is okay when people of the same beliefs, same religion, or same country form groups, but if you group by gender, it is the end of the world. Might as well argue against Christian SC2 groups and German SC2 groups. These trolls are kinda sad. | ||

The difference is that females have a hard time in StarCraft 2 just for being females (creepers/trolls and the like). I'm pretty sure Germans and Christians don't face the same magnitude of issue's that a lot of female gamers do. | ||

Religious and national groups are one thing... language, location, and a way of life are good common grounds to form a group on. Its not the end of the world either, you just put those words in my mouth. It is what it is, and I already said it. | ||

*Name: Karmelle ''Spacetime'' * Preferred race: Protoss * League: Platinum * How did you get involved in BW/SC2: I've played rts games since I was about 11 but not competitively for the most part. I love Blizzard games so when I saw the first trailer for SC2 back in like 2007 I was like :o even though I never played BW. Then I forgot about it and a friend reminded me. I bought it and didn't stop playing since~~ * By which team/player/caster are you most inspired? I don't feel inspired by a team but rather by individual progamers/members of the community. Day9 inspires me to build my play from the ground up and not take it so seriously, MC/HuK inspire me to keep playing Protoss :p, I'm grateful to Kelly for setting a sick example as the first prominent girl, and Tastosis are just ♥ * What would you ultimately like to see the future hold in regards to female players? I would like to see the sick GM chicks (or any upcoming female) suddenly appear among the masses of dudes and take them down. Its starting to happen, with Flo being taken out by White-Ra and all. The more girls names I see among the guys, the more "f-yeah" I feel. * What do you do in your time when you are not playing or watching esports? I just quit my job so right now...nothing :o Just kidding. I love music/books/making art/cooking. * How old are you & how long have you been playing BW/SC2? 23 & since November 2010. * Role in the community? I'm an upcoming caster. I am casting the Go4SC2 cup this Sunday with FGKatu, another fellow Canadian and I will also be casting the next Bunny Cup. I don't have a stream yet---for now we're using Katu's.![[image loading]](http://a0.twimg.com/profile_images/1537637814/spacedream.jpg) | ||

In one Craft Cup on her way to victory she won with EmpireKas, Beastyqt and with DieStar in finals. Online female gaming group - http://www.pmsclan.com/index.php it's widely believed that Effka's BF, italian player StarEagle has won that tournament. | ||
