The highest-earning female eSports player is Sasha "Scarlett" Hostyn (CAN), who has earned $456,811 (£364,109) in prize money according to eSportsEarnings as of 12 December 2023. Sasha's winnings come almost exclusively from fast-paced real-time strategy title StarCraft II, though she has played a few StarCraft: Remastered events.
"Scarlett" favours the alien Zerg faction in StarCraft, which requires a play style built around creating and maneuvering large numbers of relatively small and weak units in support of an aggressive, expansionist strategy. She started her eSports career in 2011, when she was just 17.
