Kane99 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I know there are many female teams playing esports, but are there any leagues just for women? I imagine by now there would be some kind of woman only league. And I'd love to see that. All I ever hear about are the male esports players, with an occasional mention of women players here and there. I'd like to hear more about the female esports players out there. I'm not familiar with most esports stars out there, but who would you say is the best female pro gamer out there in the esports world today?

Crazycrab Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I don't know much about esports but I don't see any good reason why their should be all female leagues, at least not at a professional level. It's not like Athletics or Weightlifting or whatever where one gender has an advantage. If men and women can compete together and the competition is still fair then what's the point in a gender split? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 The community has kind of a sexist view about gamers. Girls aren't really taken seriously. For example, Someone got really angry and posted Danii's tweets on the subreddit saying she was delusional and arrogant by saying they would win Nashville. Yet, if an all male, amateur team said that, people would just brush it off as people puffing up their chest. It's a bit frustrating Withywarlock and AndreiMirfi 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 There will never be a women’s league. Considering that gaming doesn’t take the same physical ability that is required for sports like basketball or hockey, there’s no real characteristic that would divide men and women in skill. In some battle royale games, there are women who are like goddesses and others that are so bad a brain dead monkey would be a more challenging opponent. The same is said for men. So I personally don’t see a logical reason to make a league for only women. TERF’s would definitely disagree with that, but fuck those delusional cunts.

Since it doesn't require physical ability, anyone can do it. I've seen kids who play some games better than most. I feel like they would have started an all women league at some point. Kind of surprised it hasn't happened yet. Women haven't had it easy in the gaming world, so I could see them trying to get their own thing going away from men. But I'm all for men and women competing against each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lludawg Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I find this topic interesting because yes it seems like there should be no difference when it comes to ability in gaming between males and females but how come in the pro world of League of Legends or Teamfight Tactics there are literally zero female pros? I don't get why the leagues are completely male dominated when there should be no difference in skill between males and females. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to have a certain skill level and abilities to make the cut, and there weren't any women who went for it that made the cut. Or that there just weren't any women interested in joining the teams. I don't know, as I don't really pay any kind of attention to eSports, so I could just be talking out of my ass. More of us in the league, would be nice to see though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be at least for starters until we develop esports leagues around the globe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Their are few female pros in video games. Male are very much seen as stars in most of the video games. So it wouldn't be possible to have a separate female E-sports leagues since the female numbers are few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameOn Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Yes, female-only leagues exist, such as the Women's League in Overwatch and the Female Legends Series in Apex Legends. I also know some notable female pro gamers like Kim Geguri and Sasha Hostyn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
