StarLadder with $10k female tourney

5-6-2016 01:13

Starladder has announced that it will host a female Counter-Strike tournament with offline finals and $10,000 in prize money.

Just two weeks after the end of the SL i-League Invitational, Starladder has announced its latest Counter-Strike project, a tournament featuring the best female players in Europe, called Female Stars Championship.

The online portion of the tournament will see 16 teams split into two double-elimination brackets - one for CIS teams only and one for teams from other European countries.

juliano's Team Secret will compete in the European bracket

The top two teams from both brackets will then attend the offline finals, taking place from July 16-17 at the Park Of The 300th Anniversary Of St. Petersburg as part of a festival called VK FEST.

Travel and accommodation expenses will be entirely covered by Starladder, which will provide stream broadcast on Twitch and VK.

Below you can find the list of teams who will be competing in the online stages of the Female Stars Championship:

European Bracket	CIS Bracket
Secret fe	Team Censored
Millenium fe	EYESPORTS
LDLC fe	Different but equal
doyoueven fe	Binary Dragons
Team HEAVEN	Null element STARRYGAME.female
LGB fe	Null element mystic
Outsiders	MiX
ALSEN fe	Attack

Grills ?

WHY??????

2016-06-05 01:24

Why does csgo have female and male tournaments? Why separate them? Csgo has nothing that would make men or women more better than the other.

They do have them but they usually get eliminated in the qualifiers for the qualifiers for the qualifiers. But this is a female invite tournament to give females the light so they don't get too lost by getting eliminated so fast.

2016-06-05 01:28

Actually is good for female scene, because its a lot easier than competing against male teams, but the main issue is that male tournaments should allow mixed teams, or both teams, thats how female scene would be equal, i'm sure a "good" team would pick Juliano.

14 replies

it's already the case mate. any female team can enlist in any qualifier/tournament. there are literally zero male only restricted tournaments.

2016-06-05 02:00

but then again those "good" teams probably earn less than for example Juliano at the moment in team secret.

2016-06-05 02:31

I'm pretty sure tier 3,4 male teams can beat Team Secret

2016-06-05 03:26

skillwise maybe they can, maybe they can't. moneywise they probably won't.

2016-06-05 10:20

what good team would pick up juliano? don't tell me you think her beating someone in a 1v1 makes her good

9 replies

She has a good amount of experience, i can't judge her as a player, since we can't compare with male players because they have better team, but if she would be in a strong team she could show better work.

See that's the thing when team secret fought Titan a while back they got rekt, I highly doubt that putting her on a male team would make her a better player

but any tier nobody male team can beat any female team. Just because juliano beat cadian in a 1v1 does not mean she is a better player

2016-06-07 22:06

This is such a wrong perception. "Any tier" is a very broad concept and if you think about it you will understand what you said wrong. Because as long as there are male teams that are not able to win against women, there is always an existing potential that needs to be explored. "Any tier" male team cannot become a top team either, do you have arguments about this? Been in this scene for too long to know how progress of players work, and what is essential in the learning process to become good.

2016-06-08 12:41

These female teams don't have the desire to win really. They're fine with their exclusive tournaments, team secret just fought against game agents and a few other low tier teams and they got destroyed. They prefer fighting against other female teams. I also highly doubt a male team would take a female team, cause of synergy man.

2016-06-08 19:42

TS is one of the teams which is focused on growing exactly among male teams. And they will keep playing in female tournaments, as long as there are any, and as long as this is a way for them to attend tournaments.

2016-06-09 16:44

>Csgo has nothing that would make men or women more better than the other. "nothing"... except for their whole biology ofc. Take a look at some studies on hand eye coordination, fine motor skills, reaction time, visual spatial intelligence, competitive drive etc.

2016-06-05 01:59

But in other hand, women have peripheral vision and other things i can't remember because i don't have any degree in this area. I saw a guy being global by his own without hands, we only will be able to compare them when we have simillar conditions, it's not simple as that, looking at biological conditions.

2016-06-05 03:33

there are no male tournaments, female teams are free to play the qualifiers. They just can't win them so they get this free pass

2016-06-05 02:04

Thank you for not including NA female teams. I'm not even being sarcastic. They were complaining earlier why Eu teams were allowed into NA tournaments. This I'll show them and their wannabe female pro scene.

2016-06-05 01:26

At least they should have invite CLG.

2016-06-05 01:31

its part of ruskie politics they not invited anny NA teams for supporting ukraine banderas humantrash bravo again greates leader since jesus christ sun of all sun rising star on sky dear leader Kim Dzong Putin #embargo NA teams#santcions NA scene#kim dong putin

2016-06-05 01:50

They were the ones complaining. They complained the competition was too tough if female pros came to NA and competed in their tourneys.

2016-06-05 02:57

NA ever had female tournaments?

2016-06-05 03:03

I think they were complaining about both male and female tournaments.

2016-06-05 03:19

Who was complaining? Like the best NA female teams (CLG Red, Karma) or the bottom tier shit teams?

2016-06-05 03:06

CLG was, and Secret is the best team.

WE WANT TO BE EQUAL TO MEN WHY ARE YOU TREATING US LIKE WE ARE IN THE 14th CENTURY > demands separated tournaments in a game that men have no physical advantage over them.

2016-06-05 01:54

>demands separated tournaments in a game that men have no physical advantage over them. can we stop claiming this bullshit? men absolutely do have a physical advantage in videogames. It's not as pronounced as it is in traditional sports but it's still sufficient enough to create a massive gap.

I'm sorry, in what aspect do men have an advantage over women in cs? I don't see anything in cs that requires any physical ability, unless you consider moving the mouse hard?

2016-06-05 02:17

hand-eye coordination and reflexes...?

2016-06-05 02:32

anybody can move a mouse like a fucking retard but it takes skill to move it with accuracy and precision of a pro player. It just happens that men are better at those specific skills. Also have faster reaction time, better cognitive skills, better hand eye coordination, men are inherently more competitive, men work better in a team environment etc. These are all things you can look up on google in 2 seconds and verify as facts. And yes aiming is a physical ability you idiot

2016-06-05 02:33

wasting money...

2016-06-05 01:58

Why do male and female have diffrent scenes in csgo? its like there is no physical requirement.

2016-06-05 02:18

There is no male tournaments here, there are normal tourneys everyone can qualify for and there are female tournaments. Just like with paraolympics etc. Men have physical advantage over women, I'm not talking about the strength only though. Let's bring something like chess for example, we don't have good females at that and it's not even about reflexes. Which men are still better at.

2016-06-05 03:43

Man and Woman should compete in E-sports in same league. Mixed in teams together. There is no advantage to being a man or a woman in e-sports. Take for example starcraft 2 Scarlett, she competed vs males! And it was okay. I don't see reason why they can't compete together MAN AND WOMAN, instead of having these two totally different leagues.... Where woman are badly badly underrated.

2016-06-05 04:06

Scarlet is Transgender She's a woman born with male body. Plus women are allowed compete in male csgo events men just aren't allowed to compete in female events

maybe cause of the lack of action and thinking? in tennis women make more money than men. that comes from skirts. so figure it out.

2016-06-05 12:03

genderless tournament*** - 250k women are free to compete in ''man'' tournaments, but they are so bad they can't qualify for it.

Can people stop calling tournaments 'male tournaments' There are only two types of tournaments : 1. Ones open for both genders and 2. Female ONLY tournaments. Male only ones would be classified as sexist.
