Overview
Team Siren is the name of a former. “supposedly” first all-women pro League of Legends team, who created a minor controversy and circlejerk among the League of Legends community, creating several minor memes, such as; Losing is not an option, I’m a Siren and Baited and Outsmarted
Team Siren Promo video
Background
The once Team Siren, were a League of Legends “pro” (Silver League) team, that consisted of:
A Little Jenny (Mid)
Christina (AD Carry)
ilysuiteheart (Jungle)
Solvanas (Support)
Yoonie (Top)
Already on the day Team Siren’s promo video was released (30th of May 2013)[1], it was posted to Reddit’s /r/cringe sub-reddit[2], and then quickly reposted to the /r/leagueoflegends sub-reddit, the video was frowned upon by a large majority of the Reddit community, mainly for trying to pave their way into competetive play by using their gender, and for scoreing very low on the League of Legends promotion scene. Unfortunately, instead of just being left alone, Redditors spread the message, and Team Siren were quickly known by a huge majority of the League of Legends players, starting a gigantic circlejerk, many huge League of Legends youtubers made Parody videos of them or their Promotion video, and they were even featuerd in some of the Pro players’ vlogs.
On the 19th of June 2013, Team Siren offically disbaned, after dealing with bullying within the team.[3]
RIP in peace Team Siren.
