Hearthstone tournament explains why women aren’t allowed to play
“In accordance with the International e-Sports Federation’s (IeSF) tournament regulations, since the main tournament event is open to male players only. This is to avoid possible conflicts (e.g. a female player eliminating a male player during RO8) among other things.”
What the actual fuck?
Reason #239519 I need Feminism. I hope Blizzard does something about this
wtf
God fuckin dAMMIT
If blizzard knows about this and doesn’t do anything or worse supports it I /will/ quit wow no matter how much I like it
to avoid possible conflicts (e.g. a female player eliminating a male player during RO8)
so you’re keeping women out of competitive gaming because…women might beat men at competitive gaming?????????????
in a competition???????????????
where the whole point is to beat your opponents?????????????
masculinity is apparently the most fragile force on earth to be shattered by the mere concept of a loss against a different gender
Better remove all female characters from all tournaments. Wouldn’t want to damage a dude’s ego because he lost to chun li.
I thought we where past this sort of bullshit. if a woman wins it means she is better than you at the game and deserves to win, how is this a problem? I know a girl that would beat me in MW:O 100% of the time. I don’t get butthurt that she is better than me, in fact I consider her a friend.
This is fucking bullshit.
Oh wow, that’s fucked up.
The policy was reversed after blizzard layer into them after this story broke yesterday.
