| 0:00.0 | The largest women's e-sports competition just took place a few days ago where a bunch of women came together to compete against one another in Fortnite at TwitchCon. |
| 0:07.0 | And guess who won? |
| 0:08.0 | Biological man. Let's talk about it. |
| 0:11.0 | Yeah, you better. |
| 0:17.0 | Guys, before we get into today's video, please like and subscribe. |
| 0:21.6 | Now, today we have quite the story and we're getting back into the gaming conversation, |
| 0:25.7 | which we dip our toes in every now and again on this channel. |

| 1:31.1 | except only one winner is going to discuss that. |
| 1:33.6 | It's true. |

| 1:36.5 | And Vader, one last question for you. |
| 1:39.9 | Coming into something like the Milk Cup Championship, a place for women, you know, made by women, |
| 1:45.0 | for women. What does it mean to be here now, standing here as the winner, of a place like |
