WePlay! Esports apologizes for sexist tweet mocking women who use Patreon and stream

Two days, two massive gaming brands making sexist tweets that belittle women in the gaming space.

In an image Dota tournament organizer WePlay! tweeted, host Rich Cambell can be seen wearing one of the Greek-style outfits WePlay! provided for the theme of its Omega League’s broadcasts. With his long wig on, he crosses his eyes and makes an “Ahegao” face at the camera. The organizer then pointed to a fake Patreon account, said it had a photoset available there, and promised “bonuses” for anyone who comes to watch the Twitch stream.
