Pokimane
Pokimane, a Moroccan-Canadian gamer, became well-known through live-streaming her matches on Twitch. She had been a chemical engineering student but subsequently left to concentrate on her League of Legends and Fortnite broadcasting career. She also belongs to Offline TV, a platform similar to YouTube but only open to a select group of video producers.
Imane Anys is renowned for saying debatable things. She apologised to the community and took a break from broadcasting since the most recent one was terrible.

Ant1ka
Russian female professional gamer Ant1ka is well-known for her expert performance in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. She has, nevertheless, excelled in gaming, taking first place in several CS: GO events.
Anna Ananikova adores her followers and is a genuine person. She recently disclosed that her mother had developed cancer and requested donations from her admirers to help pay for the medication. Despite her exceptional talent, she has struggled to establish herself in lucrative events. She has only ever earned a maximum of $20,000 in any competition.
zAAz
ZAAz is among the most seasoned female gamers, having participated in over 32 competitions. The gamer girl joined Besiktas Esports when she was 14 and has been playing video games ever since. She is also associated with Alternate aTTaX and Fnatic, two teams are known for having strong player bases.
Manish Gupta
The top female esports player in Sweden is Zainab Turkie. She searches for new gaming professionals and conducts interviews with them as the presenter of the Esports casting TV programme GamerZ. Zainab trains for more than eight hours daily because she takes her gaming job seriously. Her parents first gave her a lot of grief, but now she is a popular player who has gained support from organisations like SanDisk.
Alison Lou
The sole female British esports player on this list is Sarah Lou, ranked 96th all-time in the UK. She is ranked 2656 among gamers and has earned $50,000 from only one competition. Dead or Alive 4 is adored by Sarah Harrision. They are a formidable team when they play together since her sister Ruth is also a pro player.
The siblings have been affectionately dubbed the Williams sisters of e-sports by her admirers and supporters. But regrettably, she is no longer seen playing online games.
Cassie Chan
Marjorie Bartell is one of the first gamers to be invited to the Championship Gaming Invitational final. Her channel name is a reference to a Dead or Alive character. Software engineer Marjorie Bartell enjoyed practising her gaming abilities. In 2006, she participated in the Dead or Alive 4 competitions, finishing in second place and earning $5,000.
The player took her loss seriously, put in a lot of preparation over the course of nearly a year, and won the event the second time around, bringing her winnings up to a total of $55,000. Marjorie behaved similarly to Sarah Lou and skipped the rest of the competitions.
Hafu
One of the most well-known female gamers is Hafu (shown above), also known as Rumay Wang. She served as an inspiration for many female gamers in the modern day. She was raised in Lexington and exposed to the MMORPG World of Warcraft by her close friends. She was born in Massachusetts to Chinese parents.
Numerous thousand people visit Rumay's channel on Twitch every day to watch her videos, demonstrating how well-liked she is. She has more than 1.3 million subscribers to her channel and has been on Smasher's Legends of Gaming. Rumay has always battled prejudice against women in the gaming industry because she detests it. Not all video games in Hafu's gaming universe are MMORPGs. Additionally, she enjoys playing board games like Pogchamps' chess.
Ricki Ortiz
Fighting game enthusiast Ricki Ortiz (shown above) has a particular fondness for Street Fighter. She has been active in the online gaming community since the early 2000s, and in prestigious competitions, her name often appears in the top 20. Like her parents, she was destined to work as a metalworker or an engineer. Ricki broke free from the restrictions, spending most of her time in arcades, which aided in creating a solid basis for her future career in gaming.
In 2003, Ricki Ortiz revealed his sexual orientation as a homosexual guy. It still didn't seem right, however. Ricki realised she was a transgender woman while watching RuPaul's Drag Race. She experienced hostility in the live chat boxes due to this unfortunate admission. She fell into a depression due to this assault, and it took her two years to recover. The good news is that since beginning her transition in 2014, Ricki hasn't turned around. Congratulations, Ricki!
Mystik
The name Mystik seems familiar, yes? Many of us associate the term Mystik with the X-Men character who could transform into anyone she chooses. Katt Gun is a versatile player that excels in games like Hearthstone, H1Z1: Survive, Halo, Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, etc., despite not possessing the extraordinary X-gene. According to Guinness World Records, she has the title of the highest-paid female gamer in 2016.
Although the record book lists her profits as close to $122,000, it leaves out the money she earned in the 2007–2008 CGS competition. Her minimal pay over those years was close to $30,000, so when you put all of those elements into her income, the total earnings amount to $160,000. Katt enjoys dressing up and has cosplayed various characters, including Selene and the Sleeping Panda. In addition, she promotes Gigabyte, Newegg, and several other products as a model, influencer, and marketer.
Liooon
Liooon is the first professional female gamer to compete in the BlizzCon Esports competition and the Hearthstone Grandmasters Global Finals. Additionally, she is the first female winner of the BlizzCon Global Championship. She made history in 2019 when she won the Hearthstone Grandmaster Global Championship, being the first female player from Mainland China to do so. On this list, she is undoubtedly the top female esports player.
When Li was a stand-in for the Hearthstone Championship, a male member made fun of her for being a female. She was upset and made the following startling remarks on stage: "I want to urge to all the females out there who have a desire to compete in Esports for glory, if you want to do it and you believe in yourself, just ignore your gender and go for it," the speaker said. It is astonishing that prejudice still exists against female gamers who pursue their love. Liooon responded appropriately by triumphing in several competitions.
Scarlett
The current queen of professional female gamers is Scarlett. She is a well-known StarCraft II player from Canada and the first woman to triumph in one of its tournaments. Sasha was referred to as the Korean Kryptonite because she was skilled in StarCraft II. In the Red Bull Battle Grounds 2014 final, she was the lone person who wasn't Korean.
Sasha has also given DOTA 2 a go, although she wasn't too successful. She joined StarCraft II just a few months later. Sasha, a transgender woman, has said plainly that gender has no bearing on gaming, and Ricki Ortez has echoed her sentiments.
Male professional gamers still dominate the gaming business. However, the number of women who play video games professionally has grown over time. Women make up 41% of video gamers and 46% of game buyers, according to Statista. Women and other genders experience prejudice at professional levels more than in any other male-dominated environment.
High levels of competitiveness sometimes result in bizarre behavioural habits, although not always among the best pro male gamers. In professional tournaments, female gamers progress steadily and even take home some victories. It won't be long until the salaries of male and female gamers are completely equal.
It is encouraging to see more girls playing video games online, and this trend will only grow in the future. The treatment of the LGBTQ community, however, is shocking. Although discrimination is pervasive, it is encouraging to know that professional-level gamers are vehemently opposed to it. In any case, female gamers are steadily up. Female gamers may make far more money via streaming and branding than male gamers. In the next years, we'll indubitably witness a rise in female gamers.
You can also download the Tournafest app from Google Play or App Store to play Esports Tournaments & Scrims games like BGMI, Free Fire MAX, Call of Duty, CS: GO, Valorant, Pokemon Unite & win exciting rewards! You can also go ahead and organize Tournaments & fetch unmatched perks.
