Okay, so.. Every player that competed in the tournament was in fact male, but we have 3 women in on-air team or however its called... One of them is Sjokz, who is one of the most, if not the most famous esports host.. Then there is Frosk, who just moved to the Europian LEC from the Chinese LPL. Last one is Laure, who's done interviews in the play-in stage.. As for Aussie teams there was just one, whose name i don't remember but they went out in play-ins (kind of qualification to the group stage for less popular regions/3rd teams from Major regions)
The Kitchen Bandits is a female team i know off back in the days but wasnt a pro team i guess idk.. There is no female official lol team for now. I think there are not so good female players even in master so i guess this is the logic riot follows... Most of the master females i know of are boosted so.. :D
@Amirus That is not really the case in League, or any esports however. Women are allowed in any esports tournaments, and there are few that play in smaller ones, however at this moment there aren't any female players that are consistently at the skill level required to play at Worlds/The International/Other high level esports tournaments. There are also plenty of women only tournaments in League and other esports. But I do agree, I think it is a case of lack of participation, and it has nothing to do with women having any sort of disadvantage in esports.
Sorry for this immense amount of text. I'm going over australian team/caster, the lack of female players at Worlds and the Worlds format. The Aussies are in one of the 'emerging regions', these have to go through the Play-In phase first, a small tournament which is part of Worlds with emerging regions that decides which teams go to the World stage. The Australian region is called OPL. (Oceanic Pro League) Oceania is a relatively small region so they don't generally have enough talent to make it out of the Play-Ins, but they have I think at least once. One Australian player has been imported to the North American 100 Thieves roster in LCS this year, so if you want to support an Australian in LCS, that's your guy. Here's the video of him joining this roster: ua-cam.com/video/nONc4AIaOHc/v-deo.html The caster you asked about is named Atlus and yes he is Australian :) There are female players but not competitively, there has not been a female player at worlds so far. I personally believe the main reason for this is simply that most girls/women are not willing to completely give up their social life to live in a team house 11 months a year playing the game 12-14 hours a day. The next part is a lot to read and you could skip it by simply checking this image of Riot Games: nexus.leagueoflegends.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/2019_Worlds_PlayIn_Format_tdioj2sjc1qmmy44jpu7.png Play-Ins exists to give every region including the weaker ones a fair chance to get to the Worlds Stage if they are good enough. Worlds consists of 3 Korean, European, North American and Chinese teams. Then there is LMS which consists of Taiwain, HongKong and Macau, which also sends 3 teams. The Vietnamese league (VCS) sends 2 teams. Korea, Europe, North America, LMS and Vietnam all have the 3rd (2nd for Vietnam) seeded team in Play-Ins. These teams are joined by the Russian, Latin American, Turkey, Brazil, Japanese, South East Asia and Oceanic Leagues.
Fantastic post, contains pretty much all the info needed. Dean, read this ^ In addition, there have been female players in local leagues, but in general they have never been successful in any way. It doesn't mean there can't be, but becoming pro in LoL now is such a challenge as the players have gotten to such an elite level that it's a huge ask. Also, potentially Oceania (the OPL) could send more teams to Worlds, but it would take the one team they do send to perform to such a standard that they essentially earn more places for other teams to get into Worlds.
To answer a few questions. 1: They choose their own name, its a second identity for us. So much so that even non-pro gamers are often known by their "gamertag" within their circle of friends. 2: There are a ton of female players in league, but not many in the pro scene other than commentators and event personnel. League has a matchmaking system that ranks you based on how many games you win vs how many you lose. Climbing to high ranks is the easiest way to get noticed and drafted by a pro team. There a ton of Diamond ranked females, but not as many Challenger and Grandmaster ranked females, therefore more males are selected for the pro games due to their consistent higher rankings. (Ranks in League go from (worst to best) Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Masters, Grandmasters, and Challenger. Challenger is the top 300 players in a region and you have to play daily or risk being booted from Challenger since there are only 300 spots in it. Some pros even have a hard time staying in Challenger and have to settle for the second highest ranking of Grandmaster. 3: Yes there is an Australian league and they do compete in worlds, but they usually don't perform well enough to qualify for the play in stage of worlds, and when they do, they usually dont make it out of group stage. There are 4 big regions, and only 3 of those 4 are consistent championship contenders. North America is a big region, but usually cant make it out of groups. This year was no different. Last year (2018) was interesting because Cloud9 was the first NA team to make it to the semifinals. They lost to Fnatic and Fnatic went and lost in the Finals against Invictus Gaming. (btw they lost to this years world champions, Fun Plus Phoenix in Semifinals too.) The 3 main regions for championship contention is Europe, South Korea, and China. Faker is Korean, the last two world champs are Chinese, and the last two runner-ups were European. Hope this cleared a bit up for you and glad to see that you love the best Esport out there :)
The female teams ive heard of were disbanded or quit on eachother due to drama and simply not being good enough. Having a "professional" team thats skill level of high plat-low diamond isnt going to get far, especially when playing against master, grand master and challenger elo players.
@@jakelee7083 They are worse, much like in most sports. Lying about it would be disrespect, to the women who would be treated as children unable to take the truth, and to the male players who're just better.
@@jakelee7083 There is a smaller pool of female players and there are some very good female players. I know from experience playing with them but in this pool of female players very little of them are good enough for the big games if any.
While theres indeed female talent in LoL it usually goes unnoticed or experiences a lot of issues. Mostly, girls lack the discipline and commitment needed for this kind of high level competition, I mean... this is the fucking World Championship, not some local tournament. This guys lit play 12 to 14 hours every single day, practicing combos, movement, strats, etc thousands of times, playing thousands of matches. As some other comment said, you cant expect a plat-diamond team to be in the same league as a team full of challengers and masters (who also happen, or at least used to, have more than 1 account in very high-elo). Some people say that the attitude towards women in gaming is mostly misoginistic, but when shit like ROX vs Vaevictis eSports happens, in wich a single support ban (Nami), even as a joke, means taking out one the main champions for half of the enemy team... well... what can I say? Edit: btw, Vaevictis eSports has not won a single match in the LCL since its an all female team. lol.gamepedia.com/Vaevictis_eSports
LoL is definitely a male-heavy game. The last time Riot released the stats, they said that 90% of players are male, and that gap only gets wider as you climb up the ladder. High level female players do exist, but they aren't particularly common, and currently I don't believe there are any female pro players in any of the major regions (there might be a handful in some of the wildcard regions). I honestly think it's due to the fact that the extreme kind of personality you need to be successful in esports is one that's far more common in men than women. I mean, these guys practice 10 hours a day bare minimum. There's no such thing as a work/life balance for them and I actually think most of them are doing no favors for their mental health. Also, if you have the skills to play at the highest level, you can do better for yourself as a streamer. For the most part, the successful streamers make more money than the pros on top of being able to set your hours, take breaks, and have a life outside the game. Men are far more likely to have that singular drive for success/competition above all else (other interests, money, well-being, etc), which is why I think you see so many men as opposed to women in esports. That being said, there are a couple of female casters/analysts that are pretty recognizable to the average fan, which is notable since in order to qualify for that position, you have to be fairly high-rank in the game. Also, the esports orgs have plenty of women doing behind-the-scenes stuff and there are definitely female content creators out there.
So to explain jackeylove, he is from China so english names are not super common, and as you mentioned jackey can be a man's name aswell, but as far as I can remember he has that name as he got the account from a friend and the name the account had just stuck, so he didn't pick it himself, There are no female pro players at the top level that I am aware of at the moment, there has been a very small amount in the past, one in north america for example named Remilia who passed away in 2019, she was the first and as far as I know only female players in the NA LCS ever. But yeah ladies are not common, there was also a fully female team in the russian league, but that team was essentially a publicity stunt, and was one of the worst teams in history, or probobly the worst team in history, not winning a single game, all of the players were quite low rank for professional players even for the russian league, and they all mained the same role being support. So yeah not a great track record, it's a very male dominated game so just from demographics it makes sense that it's mostly men who end up at the tippy top, the additude in SoloQ in the playerbase probobly doesnt help much.
If i Remember correctly there was actually a Policy created some years ago to Part male and female competition for sportsmanship reasons. Reasoning being the Biological differences and Other non "E" Sports also splitting up Male and Female Competition. I dont like it but that's how it is i guess
So about females, most of women in league e-sports world aren't pro players, for example here in Brazil we have a few famous women like Tawnaa (reporter) and CamilotaXP (host), unfortunately they are out of league now, they will to work with Free Fire competitive scenario next year, but new ones are rising, about female players we have a lot of sad stories, like the american trans girl who tried play professionaly but was mentaly , and I think phisicaly, abused by the owner of the team, don't remmember her name, we once had an all female team but they just wanted to show up and choose pretty girls whom wasn't good players like pro's, recently, about the begining of December, the world put one eye on a brazilian player called Mayumi, she debuted for INTZ (one of the biggest brazilian teams) as a Support at the Superliga ABCDE (an of season tourneament) and she played very well and was one of the best players of her team when se played, in fact she became kindda famous in China, she created a profile in one chinese social media and in les than 24 hours she hed more than 100.000 followers, and gained a lot of followers on twitter too, we all hope she can play at CBLoL (our pro league) next year.
Every female team that have been tried to make work have had too little discipline and wouldn't practice as much as they needed to do good and hence they got into drama and disbanded
Believe me Dean you don't want a gaming chair it's not comfortable not after an hour or two of sitting after an hour or two your back will be demolished
I personally know girls who are really good at League, reaching Master and Diamond rank which is ~0.1-1% of the top. There were also a good number of female Grandmasters and Top 500's in Overwatch. But the presence of female competitors is pretty sparse in Esports in general because the community is often quite toxic and like to harass female figures.
@@123Juniiorr In my opinion a KR or CN master is more than enough to compete in NA esports teams. The ladder is also a completely different game from competitive play so the evaluation value is limited.
So, yeah, there aren't as many girls in the scene as you would expect. The environment isn't that great for female talent, even tho they exist. It can be pretty toxic if they aren't performing at the highest level possible. It seems like they have to excuse their presence there. A few years back there was a girl, Remilia, who played for one of the worst teams on the LCS and the community was pretty toxic about her even tho all of the members were equally bad. So it's not that easy to make a girl want to go pro. Also, she was scammed (Remilia) by one of the owners of her team.
remilia is not a biological woman and from what i understand, most of the hate is because she left in the middle of a competition, yes she had her reasons but nobody knew what exactly was going on
Jackeylove is male. But it doesn't matter if you play league, stream or play Overwatch. Girls getting harrased by guys. Esp when they dont play, support. Open your mouth as girl in voice chat? Well low quality jokes and bullying incoming
I love how this is just not true. Of course there are piece of shit men who harass and disrespect women but the most of us don't. My gf plays LOL as I do and she gets no problem at all with or without voice chat. Tbh the only problem she has is too many friend request and invites to games that may be because she is a wonderful person or because (as we think) she is a female. We saw multiple times too that being a female is esport is an advantage (look into the story of the guy rejected from a team, fake being a girl to get instantly hired). There is shitty people in this world and in this community as well, but pls don't try to use a few cases to describe us all.
Yeah well, not true at all. When i play casually with girls they can play everywhere and i support them and don't even think about harrasing them. Most girls (not all) are just to bad to play when it's not casual anymore and thatswhy they get flamed like every male aswell that doesn't do well. Has absolutely nothing to do with being a girl :)
@@oFDHiidanXo If one dude does it doesn't mean it's "not true at all" And I play diamond in overwatch and platin in league of legends. And while I am climbing, sorry to say, but I am able to know when I fucked up or when a Silver Player just want to get attention. And dont tell me you never had a feeding botlane and the jungler gets blamed for it, no matter the circumstances. The classic. Thats how many girls are treated. Even if its not their mistake, it must be them, because male wouldnt do that, or I have no fucking clue what they are thinking. Its super awesome if u dont think that way but dont talk for everybody. I know that there are also nice guys, but what you are saying sounds a bit arrogant (And I dont think you are) since you say that is the only reason and girls just cant handle it. When I join the voice chat in overwatch I heard to much insults by just entering, when the game didn't even started. That has nothing to do with being good or bad. Its not like girls can't take critism, but not because of I am girl pls, because I did a mistake. I am totally fine with it. Sorry if I made mistakes by writing. English is not my main language, feel free to correct, would help a lot o/
Hate to break it to you, Dean, but Australians (and the OPL in general) are barely even an afterthought in pro-LoL. We're pretty much the weakest region in the world, and playing on the servers I can attest that in general Oceania players are just the worst. And no, there is not a single female professional LoL player on the world stage- in fact, I think there's only maybe 1 or 2 anywhere in the world. You just don't see female pro-LoL players (unlike in some other esports, such as Starcraft) because it's a team game and the institutionalised sexism is just too rampant. Better not discuss it beyond that, or else we'll get overrun by the "it's not sexism, girls just aren't as good at games as guys" brigade.

And no, there is not a single female professional LoL player on the world stage- in fact, I think there's only maybe 1 or 2 anywhere in the world. You just don't see female pro-LoL players (unlike in some other esports, such as Starcraft) because it's a team game and the institutionalised sexism is just too rampant. Better not discuss it beyond that, or else we'll get overrun by the "it's not sexism, girls just aren't as good at games as guys" brigade.
