/RiotGame(s) : gives a warning to a pro team for an all-support ban against an all-female "pro" team with the argument that it stereotypes them.
/alsoRiotGame(s) : release a new enchanter champion who's (yet) another cutesy, ethereal female healer.

I guess their "diversity director" and "diversity trainers" still have some legwork to do ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I like cats, but I never thought a champion could beat Janna, Soraka and Nami in terms of being the egirliest cliché champ the world has ever seen.

This is probably totally going to get me in trouble - but goodness, some of you are just so endlessly negative, and it's just starting to grate on me.
I count five "cutesy, ethereal" female enchanter supports - out of a hundred and forty-three champions. That would be 
. Yuumi will make six. That's all of four percent of the current roster, or a little less than one out of every twenty champions in League. You all tell me if I've missed anybody - but please don't just start listing midlane mages/toplane fighters who aren't enchanters, nor true supports.
You want strong, killer women? I don't even have time this morning to list the dozens of female champions who are characterized as lethal, competent soldiers or leaders of their communities who can dumpster half the rest of the roster in the right hands. Start with 
and then pick most of the rest of the female roster.
No - I'm calling this post out. I don't think most of you here are mad that Yuumi is a cute girl cat at all nor are you fighting for any cause of female equality. I think a lot of you are just still pissed off that Riot tried to defend a female pro team at all - and to take a stance against the bullying of women in gamer culture, even if it was done badly. I don't think many of the supporters of this thread want to see women empowered in gaming at all, and I will say this even though I'm sure people here will bitterly report me for doing so. Why do some of you play this game if you hate Riot so much? Do you think you could do better? I urge you to try it. Most of you have no idea what it takes to make a game - the dedication, the years of learning involved - much less what it takes to create something that has been one of the world's most popular videogames for almost ten years.
Finally - pick a better meme next time if you want to be taken seriously on the issue of confronting female stereotypes. DJ Khaled is hardly an icon for female empowerment.
