Geguri will be the first Female to compete in APEX

She signed with ROX Orcas, ma boi TyDolla finally gonna have some solid support if he ever goes back to Genji. One thing to note is if she will be able to take her considerable skills and fully adjust them to the level that APEX requires to be successful.

In either case this is good news for any other Female professional with the skills to pay the bills.

She supposedly plays a lot of D.va now too, so she'll stay in the Off Tank role.

I believe she will, she seemed like an amazing Zarya though I haven't seen her D.Va. It's good to see that the hackusations haven't stopped her from finally make it it into APEX and I look forward to following their performance in the next Season.

I hope i see lots of mercy and dva action

Great!

Yes good news, I hope more good girls can find a team.

Great news. One question though, as I'm sadly misinformed on this, what is South Korea's stance on females playing games for a living. I know gaming is way more accepted there than in the west, and making a carreer out of it is definitely still kinda tabou in EU/NA.
I'm curious about this cause I'm sure there is more than a few female players that can compete, hopefully Geguri's paving the way.

Top Chinese teams have a smattering of women, one in APEX, definitely seems to be more women near the top in ow than most esports.

The ones I know of are MY and Luckly Future with both being in the OPS Summer tournament. I haven't had a chance to see them play but being there in the first place is quite huge. I'm sure there can only be more to come and hopefully she opens the door for others in Korea as well.
