Play Like a PRO: OhMyV33nus on being an LGBTQ+ pro player in esports

Esports has become a significant part of the culture of today’s Filipino youth, with games spanning generations like Counter-Strike and Defense of the Ancient (DotA) and today’s wide variety of locally-popular games like League of Legends (LoL), Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB), and Valorant.

More recently, homegrown athletes started to dominate their respective esports leagues. Among such athletes is top MLBB player Jonmar “OhMyV33nus” Villaluna. Playing for Blacklist International, OhMyV33nus went against all odds to become one of the most successful Filipino esports players today.

Like most esports athletes, OhMyV33nus’ love for the sport started when she was still a kid. Growing up on PC games, with a particular interest in MMORPG and MOBA, OhMyV33nus decided early to become a part of the local esports community.

“Since I was a child, my dream has always been as simple as playing for a team,” OhMyV33nus shared. “Before, I just used to watch a lot of League of Legends international tournaments.  Watching their struggles and winning moments motivated me to become who I am today and inspired me long before esports became popular in the Philippines,” she added.

With her own share of struggles and heartbreaks, OhMyV33nus admits that it has not been an easy journey. She was a product of a decade of wins and losses — and after winning the MLBB M3 World Championships as the mid laner of her team, OhMyV33nus is now an international esports champion. With this success, OhMyV33nus serves as an inspiration for a new generation of Filipino gamers — particularly those who are members of the LGBTQ+ community.

OhMyV33nus

To all aspiring LGBTQ+ esports players, OhMyV33nus shares this piece of advice, “Becoming a professional esports athlete requires intense physical and mental preparations and this sport transcends all those defining factors that we normally see in other sports — height, race, social status, and sexuality is irrelevant in this field. Don’t let anyone look down on you just because of your gender or sexuality.”
