League of Legends all-female tournament to allow transgender and gay male players to participate, but are limited to one per team.

>1) Each team will be allowed to have a maximum of one (1) Gay/Transgendered woman for the entirety of the tournament day. Therefore, teams cannot do the following: Team_A's first game will be 4 female members and 1 gay, then on Team_A's second game, they will have 4 female members and replace with another gay or transgender member.


Does anyone else find it fucking hilarious how hard theyre trying to quantify oppression? By being "more inclusive" they just pissed off more people. Women are complaining about having to play with males, gays are complaining that they're grouped up with women, trannies are complaining that its not fair that they're limited to one per team. A shitstorm is inevitable.

How do they check if a player is gay or not? ( ° ʖ °)

Check your hand. If it's bigger than your face, then you're gay.

In the future, the finest athletes in the world will be fueled by cheese-flavored cardboard and dish-washing detergent.

Rather than inject growth agents to gain a tactical advantage like their primitive forebears, they will make outrageous claims about their abilities to give oral pleasure to menfolk.

What even is the point of an all-female tournament?

I don't really see it any different from having national tournaments, or city tournaments, site-wide tournaments or cripple only tournaments (basketball). People who share something in common get together and compete over something usually completely unrelated.

The real question is, who the hell would watch an all-female tournament? At least wheelchair-basketball is interesting.

I agree with the general logic. In physical sports there's a point because of obvious physical differences, hormones and whatnot. However mentally, even if we're different, either sex only has slightly different advantages that don't give a clear edge.

However, people still want to feel special, and in the e-Sports scene there is such an overwhelming difference between male and female numbers that there is not enough pool for females for a significant enough statistical probability that some of them are better than the top edge male players. In other words, even if both sexes have par average skill, if one of them has enough numbers the other one doesn't get enough numbers on the top of the bell to actually produce members of that skill.

This is statistical probability though, and has little to do with whether there are actual women good enough to win a big championship or not, but I think you can get my point.

So, to be able to shine in something that there's very low probability to shine, they organize a segond, different tournament

>tournament opened for top 100 in the world
>1000 people of roughly average skill compete for entry
>only 30 of those are wimmin
>it's just more likely that men will wind up in the top 100 comp

Is what you're saying, yeah?
