Are trans men allowed to compete in GC?
Question about GC

VCT isn’t a men’s league, anyone can compete in VCT regardless of their gender
trolling
idk why youd allow them unless it's on the basis of trans people being marginalised genders
I remember someone talking about GC rules few months back where they were not allowed to compete. Maybe now they are
It's pretty regional. In OCE is pretty vague. Idk about other regions, probably should investigate further.
well trans people as a group are marginalised no matter their gender, so id assume so
I think the idea is that trans men are men, but they're disregarding the context that surrounds their gender identity which isn't necessarily ill-intentionned but quite dumb
yes they are and a team full of trans guy who says they are female and its there first year in GC they won stage 1 vs SRG which is basically the best GC team(SRG also have trans in there team)
They should be, but the rules don't allow them.
Riot's logic is that trans men are men, so they aren't marginalised.
but I disagree, as being trans comes with its own marginalisation's.
[okay question]
Hypothetically, lets say some rangked demon from thailand or lets say Primmie claims himself to be a transgender, so now he can compete in GC ? how does it work?
you have to be openly trans for 2+ years or have medical proof of transition to play in GC
Also, if you're good enough for tier 1, and not actually trans, why would you bother faking it?
I don't think GC players make that much money even compared to mid t1 teams. But he would win everything that's fs
They are not, but supposedly some do play at lower tiers since they can use the F on their legal documents to play
