ToSsGirL - Queen of Terran

One of the most famous female progamers in the world, known to many as ToSsGirL or medic. She is the undefeated champion of female starcraft and now trying to work her way up in the male starcraft tournaments, playing for the korean progaming team STX SouL.

ToSsGirL

I talked to her about several topics including her gaming career, female gaming and her daily life.

Thanks goes out to mnm of sclegacy and cyp of siz for helping out with the interview.

I just knew her name and that she existed, because she is a female progamer. I didn't know anything about her background, though and I got to say it's very interesting.

#18 They'll disappear, I guess. There are not enough top female players and those who are can compete with the male players, imo.

There is no reason why a woman should not be able to play a computer game as good as a man.

There is no need to segregate male/female in esport because unlike real-sport women are not disadvantaged.

agree w/#21....honestly many women should actually have higher keystrokes then men, like tossgirl stated about playing piano tought her fingers to move fast. Most guys dont ever get that kinda training

Been wondering about that as well :/

I guess it has something to do with the average gamers maturity :)

Sorry.. this might be a stupid question 4u guys.. but she does speaks english, right?
(2 years ago)  #28 mnm
 
Yeah she knows how to speak English enough to understand what we say but her English isn't perfect and it's a lot easier for her to respond in Korean. Thus the interview was translated from English to Korean and Korean to English.

Is it true that asians generally practice writing/reading much more than speaking when it comes to foreign language. I heard that somewhere... That many can read english quite well, but perhaps not speak as good.

And it get's 10,000 hits as i said :) It's pretty bad when this got twice as many hits as an interview with Lucifer, mYm's best & most known player, that is also on the main page, and in half the time.

I know the pictures is what attracts most readers, but I do hope that people also enjoyed her answers, as I thought they were quite good and somewhat surprising :)

Im not into SC at all but that was incredible well done. and plus, it touched a problem which I was doing research on "female gaming'. thanks for reading my mind ;).
