The worlds best female gamer?
American "Hafu" from the realm Tichondrius in BG9 can most probably be considered as the worlds best female gamer. Not only is she the only girl among the 100 highest rated WoW players in the world, but she is also leading it.

American "Hafu" from the realm Tichondrius in BG9 can most probably be considered as the worlds best female gamer. Not only is she the only girl among the 100 highest rated WoW players in the world, but she is also leading it.Hafu is playing a Night Elf druid and was last week ranked first in 2vs2, first in 3vs3 and second in 5vs5 - in battlegroup 9 which is considered as one of the best (if not the best) battlegroup in the world.
For those interested, her setups consists of:
2vs2: Druid/Warrior (2491 rating)
3vs3: Druid/Warrior/Warlock (2378 rating)
5vs5: Druid/Warrior/Warlock/Rogue/Priest (2420 rating)
SK Gaming will _hopefully_ have an interview with Hafu available in a few days, so stay tuned!

Will you convice us? No.
Do we care about your opinion? No.
Do we think you have a clue about high-end arena? No.
And last but not least: Do we fucking swarm your game's every other article with "LOL SKILL IN WC3??? APP=WIN"
Could you please go back to your skill based games and let us, nubs, enjoy ours ?
People are simply writing here to correct the mistakes of the auther and the false asssumptions made by WoW-gamers. This has nothing to do with putting down WoW - it's a decent game in it's own respect and does require skill, just not as much as games like Starcraft and Counter-Strike.
My money is that gosye's title was a flamebait, not a mistake.
And I don't see how it makes a difference how it's "tagged" - it's not like we see that or that changes the title.
-"skill" in WOW is how much time do you spend , team-coordination and game knowledge. While "skill" in other games that are recognised by everyone as esports include a lot of factors like : micro /macro /reflex /concentration /timing/ game knowledge / team-coordination ...etc
You never make typos for sure. And as I play WoW I am a retard and can't find edit button. All things you have listed are needed in arenas. Some of them in lesser amount than in other games, some in bigger amount. And if you would knew WoW bit better you would know that time-spent is close to nofactor now, at least for MMORPG standards. Ever heared about half-free pvp gear from faction vendors in 2.4, AV afking, buying T6 tokens to swap it for S2, firends boosting? About TTR?
pp: i'm not racist, i'm just askin'
With that being said, whats this about "worlds best female gamer"? How can you even compare other gametypes to this game? Just check the class being played, the time period its being played at and we see a druid being high rated. Too many things wrong with this post except the one positive thing: giving female gamers more respect and praise.
And I definately think it's soothing. How can it be annoying, really? :)
