There are different opinions regarding female players in DOTA 2 esports. Many believe that men have an advantage, while others argue that girls are not inferior to guys in their skills. One way or another, many esportswomen can compete with professional male players. Today’s predominantly male eSports players, however, we do not say that girls play worse, so the creation of projects aimed at female eSports can be considered a good trend.
