Women in gaming are leading the charge in this Apex Legends event!
Complexity Gaming and Twitch livestreamer Clara “ClaraATwork” Gomez have announced an Apex Legends tournament! Read on for details.
"Women are actively shaping the future of gaming."
An Apex Legends tournament led by women
The event, called Clara's Legends, will showcase women in gaming. It will kick off on Dec. 3 with top streamers leading the charge on trios of Apex Legends competitors and fellow content creators.
A $36,000 prize pool will be at stake, and Clara’s Legends will also feature 20 teams lead by Laurice "GuhRL" Habibi, Blisskai and other prominent women in the Apex Legends space.
To earn points, invited participants will duke it out across six rounds. The twist will be limited communication, with only the captains getting to speak. Meanwhile, other players will depend on in-game pings and their captain's leadership abilities.
Clara's Legends event furthers women in gaming
“Women are actively shaping the future of gaming,” ClaraAtWork, who is also a Complexity Twitch streamer, said.
ClaraAtWork added how her partners in Complexity Gaming and JBL will boost representation for women as competitors and leaders. She said that she's proud to work with brands that empower women and prioritize inclusivity.
“Despite continued growth and progress over the past decade, gaming and esports remain predominantly comprised of men, so we’re co-hosting Clara’s Legends to spotlight women creators who are actively changing the game,” Kyle Bautista, the COO of Complexity Gaming, said.
Bautista added that Complexity Gaming is dedicated to doing its part in making the gaming space more welcoming to the current and future generation.
Clara’s Legends is not the only instance of Complexity Gaming supporting women in the space. Over 50% of the organization's roster of content creators are women, and Complexity Gaming has its GX3 roster for Valorant.
As for where to watch the women-led Apex Legends tournament, it will start at 12 p.m. PT on Dec. 3 on Complexity’s Twitch channel plus each content creator’s personal ones.
