@Tom_Crawford

Why do you think they didnt make a team of girl's from a competitive rank?

@Ahri_Main

im pretty sure there simply are not enough female players in high elo

@Ahri_Main

There has been one made in the past (team siren), however it was entirely for publicity and lacked any form of cohesion with overall skill level around Diamond 5. While there are many good female league players they are not as large nor as vocal in the pro league scene with the most prominent ones relying (at least to some extent) on their looks. Thus a negative stigma surrounds a lot of female players that may want to go pro. But overall, there just arent as many challenger girl players.

@Tom_Crawford

Imagine if we applied those same lowered standards to firefighters, the military, med school, and corporate hiring/promotion...

@TimB

Your argument is not at all relevant. Those professions you listen are careers in human services as this is a article about the entertainment business. If they want to make a team of females for entertainment that is their agenda and suits the industry.

@RapRaptor

This is a competitive sport with an amateur team. What are you supposed to do? Play seriously and chuckle after every bad move.

@TimB

Where have you been? They've been lowering the physical standard requirements for women for those jobs (firefighters and law enforcement primarily) for years. And the military already has a lower physical requirement for women.

@TimB

Not at all the same thing. Apples to oranges dude. A better analogy would be college players (any sport) against pro players of the same sport. The pros already know they're going to win (or at least it perform the college players), so they're not going to take the game too seriously, if at all.

@idlewild

That's the point...

@Sebtional

No there is likely more then enough top tier females. its that they aren't attractive enough to be a pr team. nor do they likely want the attention being on a team would bring they just want to play the game just like most male players do.

@David_Hodor

This is a real verdict. And it's kinda sad tbh. These girls have no business being in the pro league. Most pro players are high master (now grandmaster) to Challenger, these girls avg at about d2. Huge skill gap. If they win, it'll likely be handed to them.

@Lloll I say 7 of they get a mountain.

@Noel_Bonilla

We want to be very right and punish players for a intent they might could have had.

@SuperSandro2000

I view it one of 2 ways where the bans strategic ie meant to lower their ability and help the mens team the warning is stupid since that's the point of banning the use of chars. or 2 were the bans just for the females play style ie the champions weren't the best choices for the match but it was the females favs ie the champions wouldn't have helped the girls anyways then the warning is somewhat valid. Being dicks to be dicks is bad even though their games sportsmanship should still be carried out but if the bans had a legit match reason then f*** it.

@Jacky_Vang

Isn't it rich that Riot employs these super sensitive rules but they are a trash company ran by trash people who actually sexually harass their female co-workers a lot? I mean they've had major problems with homophobic actions in the workplace, sexual harassment, etc. That company is trash and almost everyone who works there is trash.

@TempUser0000001

This is pretty common. The louder someone is about how "progressive", "diverse", "inclusive", and "male feminist" they are, the more likely they turn out to be a huge hypocrite.

@TimB

What are you basing this off of?

@RapRaptor

Sexual harassment in campaigns of or outright assault by Al Franken, John Conyers, Bernie Sanders, Justin Fairfax. Hostile work environments at activist companies like Thinx, Nasty Gal, MoxCloth.

Celebrities like Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey, Les Moonvees, Jeremy Piven, Tom Brokaw, Matt Lauer, Bryan Singer...all very vocal #BelieveWamen advocates.

@Boost24

Normal behavior by league officials in professional leagues. You can see it occur in all sports leagues. NBA has done something similar when it comes to teams resting star players.

@RapRaptor

You are not allowed to only ones with one start player. Disqualified.

@YoRHaNo2TypeB

Oh noe goblin from worst country in world got triggered

@Teutonic_Knight

at least he's not French lol

@Jonathan_Shih I told my friend that this shit is scripted since like season 3 but he doesn't believe me. I'm pretty sure most of the pros are using Scripts to gain ELO anyways. It's not out of the room of possibility but everyone licks their butthole and thinks they're God's gift. I remember seeing a Draven Dodge all of Bjergsen skillshots and that full of said he's going to tell Riot that he scripting. I'm pretty sure you don't have to be Faker to dodge skillshots

@Tiffany_Odin

Same as every male-feminist politician pushing diversity and affirmative action at the top of his lungs, only to turn out to be a serial molester. They're noisy about it because they know what they're actually like.

@MrGuffels

Generally speaking, guys are more competitive than girls too, at least in fields akin to this one. I'm not saying girls can't hold their own in LoL (or any competitive field for that matter), but guys are usually more competitive and more driven. They generally play and practice A LOT more, and therefore have more knowledge and experience. This team could easily hold it's own in a league where everyone else is their skill level, but riot refuses to acknowledge that their skill is the problem, not their gender. The teams that "disrespected" them did so because they're lower tier players. But riot doesn't see it that way. Not to mention they're likely trying to cover their asses since they were, one upon a time, deemed misogynistic themselves.

@MrGuffels

There was actually an all-girl team in an all-girl championship in Vietnam, and there were a D1 and a Master in the team. The casters were so impressed with the Master's Orianna, they say they never underestimate girls again.

@idlewild

It's not because of the champions' gender, it's the players. What kind of mental gymnastics did you even do to think it was the champs?

@Raza_MASOOD

I don't think anyone realized this comment was satire, at least, I hope it was...

@Thai_Rais

Riot got in trouble a little while ago for basically being sexist/misogynistic, so now they're likely trying to cover their ass if anything else.
