I went over to check out the thread on reddit, and man of course it was already locked down. Funny thing is they say it was due to 'mUh sExISM'. Give me a break, the team itself was sexist, with a legit 0% win rate, and ridiculous amount of deaths. This reminds me so much of team Siren, first time someone tried this all female stupid shit in league, that time they didnt even make it to the LCS lmao

Regional league for League of Legends. League has a lower ceiling on the usefulness on actions per minute, so it seems possible that a single exceptional female could make it to the top level, especially as support.

Full female team is of course as suicidal as it sounds. Years ago there was a Team Siren which was brought together by corporate sponsors and sold as grrrrrrl power claiming they were going to qualify for the proleague. To me, the funniest element was that looking individual rankings of the players they weren't even the best female team. That honor would go to Kitchen Bandits a for fun team of female streamers and the sisters and girlfriends of pros.

Ceiling - as in skill ceiling. The game's mechanics don't have enough going on simultaneously to make an apm 350 player blow out a 300 apm everytime as they could in something like Starcraft.

Why can't girls play video games? It's not like IRL sports where generally men are physically superior. You'd think e-sports would make things more even.

There are lots of boys/men who play video games for 80 hours a week even without being pro. Very few girls. People can say what they want but guys just overall like games better. So there is a much smaller pool to pick from when you go all female.

It's bizarre. We play videogames in our house, wife and female children included. The kids only play with us or family & friends we actually know irl. They just don't have that killer instinct. Which is good for character but bad for competition. I can jump into some kind of death match with my wife, on a game she plays all the time and one that I rarely play and just shit all over her & her friends. Like it's not even fun for me. Their brains just don't operate on the same frequency as a normal male's brain. They can't apply strategy on the fly, there is no effort to analyze what the opposition is doing and modify their behavior to overcome that.

^Everyone knew this not that long ago and it was fine. None of that is a criticism of women, it's just an observation. There are things women are better at than men, and that's fine too. #1? Being a mom, which is super important job for society.

Before career women were common, the accepted norm was that, once the children grew up, their moms would then run charities and generally "help the poor", visit the elderly, operate soup kitchens, the list goes on...

Personally, I think our society and culture is in desperate need of women returning to that very important role, and soooooo much shit would fix itself if they did.

Professional competitive video games.

"Meta" just means "strong given the way the game is balanced and currently played". The "meta" changes when a player develops a new strategy, and if a strategy is too strong sometimes the game is changed to prevent it. Same thing happens in physical sports, look up the "flying wedge" from early days american football. TL;DR: It was so strong they changed the rules so you couldn't do it.

It's kinda disappointing that it appears women may be worse at video games than men too. One would imagine it might narrow the field since it isn't physical labour, it's arguably dexterity (the first typists were women, because it was assumed they'd be better at it). And streaming or playing a nightly scrim for the occasional competition is a good sort of work for a mum. It's stuff you can do while staying at home, and where the world doesn't end if you break to take care of your child.

League of Legends professional play, most likely. LoL is a pretty big competitive MMO, arguably the biggest comp scene in gaming right now.

I don't know how those whores got to pro play with that performance though... Jesus.

My only clue was the Cooler Master logo on their jackets, figured it had to do with something about video games.

Neither do I. I have to assume it's some video game bullshit that only beta losers care about.....

Edit: and yep, after reading the comments, it's just that. I'm amazed at how many video game faggot losers their are on reddit....all these fucking beta filth need to die in a fire, pronto.....

Why hate on League and other digital games? They're some of the few true meritocracies that we have left in the 21st century.

It's an organization that arranges and broadcasts video game matches. Lots of people take it as serious as nigger ball.
