How about you enlighten us all rather than be condescending.

Are there VODs somewhere? This sounds like a funny match, Aphrodite is Korean GM (I think? She was NA GM at least), and it sounds like the South African player is likely less than masters NA.

Everybody here seems to say Aphrodite is the best female player, but I think Scarlett made it clear that she's well above any other female level right now (Except for -maybe- Luway), no?
By the way, this is very exciting to see South Africa getting involved in the Starcraft scene, the more people get into the game, the better! :D

VeraLynn best female progamer ever.
+ Show Spoiler +lol jk. Scarlett is probably the best female player, but her situation kinda makes it special. I don't mean to offend her at all, I'm a big fan of her. Aphrodite is called the best female progamer because well, she's on Startale, wins ladies tournaments, and she does appear to be more "genuinely attractive looking". But overall Scarlett is better I think. Didn't Scarlett beat Aphrodite in some ladies tournament?

At least, I think that's the correct terminology - pretty sure a transwoman is not female. Maybe I'm wrong though.

I think we were going with "native female" when talking about the best female player. Or at least new ones.
And yeah she kinda does look like she could be Nada's sister.
It's a shame they caught Gabriella having a bit of a bout with a lazy eye.

Aphrodite is sooo cute!
Lol and congrats to her for winning! Hope to see her play in team leagues one day.

Lol I'm sorry. I didn't mean to come off that way. I was just actually, genuinely surprised.

Wow did not expect a South African jersey in the photos. South Africa Fighting!!
Although I feel she is selling SA a bit short in terms of the SC2 scene - we do actually have a few decent players here (and one Grand Master) and we do have quite a couple of decent sized tournaments here :D
|
Not sure if this whole IeSF was worth mentionning since there were only 2 players ? Seriously make her play against boys or whatever because this whole tournament was just a joke :/
No offense to the girls, Aphrodite is clearly better than your average high master boys and i'm pretty sure it'd have been a lot more fun :/

She's only played a couple times in open tournaments (qualifiers), and IIRC the only broadcasted game she's had was losing to Stork in the WCS qualifiers. That's why few people actually know if she's any good or not. I have noticed a couple Startale players mention her lately in interviews as a practice partner or source of builds...
|
so what's the deal with this tournament? Like I want to know the details of it: when, how, why, where, etc.
|
Could someone link me to the VODs if possible please? Oh and Aphrodite has always been good. She either won or came 2nd in the last Iron Lady Tourny and consistently places 1-2nd in many Women Tournys.
|
aphrodite is easily the best female terran now. Would love to see a showmatch between her and scarlett for the best female player although i am not to sure if she had a chance against scarlett.
