“We are of course very happy and proud to announce the lineup for this event. More than anything I am extremely pleased to see the wide range of female talents dedicating their time to being a part of Women’s Esports League and Female Legends have done a tremendous job making this final happen.” — Johan Bengtsson, Challengermode

“It’s been a dream for me to work on the Women’s Esports League — this is exactly the kind of initiative I would’ve loved to take part in when I was younger. There are other leagues and tournaments for women, but it’s rarer to have an all-women on-camera talent team! I am certain we’ll deliver a great show for you all, and fingers crossed — maybe some of our players or teams will play in the big open divisions soon!”— Anna Kärrstrand, Digital Productions Lead, Female Legends.
