Mod Note:
Let's leave any discussion about whether there should or should not be female only leagues, out of this thread okay? Its a thread for discussing this actual tournament, thats actually happening. Theres plenty of threads elsewhere if you absolutely have to have that debate (again).

After a long break and alot of requests from the girls we have finally managed to organize another cup. I know alot of girls have waited a long time and we will try to have these cups on a more regular basis.
With the previous succesful cups and the winners such as Effka, Pikachu and Kellymilkies.. once again i hereby proudly announce the fifth cup esl female sc2.
We want to create a stage for girls to meet one another and compete against each other. Why ? Because its fun and this way we believe its a good contribution to the esports community just adding that female touch. Also we know alot of girls would love to other girls playing this wonderful game.
Time and Date
The tournament will be online on the 24th of April.
It will commence at Sunday, Apr 24 6:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00)
How to sign up
You will need to have an account on esl and be female ( duh! ) and have an eu acc or use someone else's eu acc. After you've signed up, you will receive an email with all the information to log onto teamspeak. The instructions will be included in the email and you will have to be logged onto our ts server with a mic to do a voice recognition.

Feels like kinda bias to separate girls from guys. It's not like a sports where u need to use more muscles and stuff but everyone behind the pc = fair and square

I understand that you're always going to have negative feedback but why dont people think firsT?.. we DONT separate anyone.. its just that we wanna give girls a stage to play with each other.. alot of girls thanked us a zillion times because we organised something like this.. just because they met other girls and have found this more fun. Mind you, alot of girls dont know other girls who play and would love to meet them and compete with them. Another point is that guys are overall more competitive and this is just another opportunity to play with others.

Why? Its a good debate, I think that all female gamers should be encouraged to play in the male leagues.

I see what you're doing here and I'm not biting. There's arguments to both sides and no one is 100% right, so it's a sort of pointless debate. Plus there other 4 or whatever threads for this tournament all got dragged down by it. There's been probably 200 pages of debate on it. Want to discuss extended series as well?
But is Linda Liao still playing in these events? Would be cool to see her play, I have not seen her play in a long time now.
|
She hasnt signed up yet.. the announcement was a bit late too but i could msg her can't guarantee anything tho :D but more importantly is that girls out there know there are events like this and getting more girls to like esports and play in it.
|
Aw, if I was a better player, I would totally do this. TT
But I will definitely will watch!
Good luck to everyone!
|
This looks awesome. Gonna keep and eye out for the stream. If I wasn't terrible and in NA i'd compete.
|
This is great! More gamer girls for all!
|
awesome i cant wait to see pikachu play
|
You dont have to be a diamond player we have girls from different leagues, dont worry.. even if its just for the fun u can still compete and hang out with us on teamspeak.

Depends what you mean by broadcasting, If you mean live event for girls gaming.. that is kind of hard as there arent enough girls playing sc2 whereas cs has large female gaming community. So, if it grows out to be a greater scene and it gets more advertisement with all other parties included ofcourse i am sure that wont be a problem.
The games of this cup and the future cups will be casted ofcourse.
