Diversity in Brazilian esports: An interview with CBLOL’s new talent

The CBLOL, Brazil’s top-tier League of Legends competition, now has three female casters.

For the 2021 season, CBLOL Academy will have Maria ‘Fogueta’ Julia, Layze ‘Lahgolas’ Brandão and Ravena Dutra (known simply as Ravena) as part of the broadcasting team. The three of them talked to ESI in Portuguese about their careers as casters, about the industry, and the opportunity that they have to open a new path for female casters in the League of Legends community in Brazil.

Has esports in Brazil become more inclusive?

Ravena Dutra, who started as a content creator on YouTube, explained that her plan wasn’t to be a caster.
