Why? Apparently any more than one per team would result in that team having an "unfair advantage." Not only that, but any team found to have more than one LGBT member will receive a one year ban from all events organized by Garena.
1) Each team will be allowed to have a maximum of one (1) Gay/Transgendered woman for the entirety of the tournament day. Therefore, teams cannot do the following: Team_A's first game will be 4 female members and 1 gay, then on Team_A's second game, they will have 4 female members and replace with another gay or transgender member.
2) Any team who has violated the above provision, regardless if intentional or otherwise, whether discovered during the day of the event or some time after, will have all their team members (the female members as well as the Lesbian, Gay, Transgendered women member) sanctioned with a 1-year ban on all Garena-organized events, including subsequent Iron Solari Tournament.

Garena claims that they want to be inclusive but it's because of "arguments and concerns from other participants" that fear that LGBT women will have an "unfair advantage."
What does Riot Games, the development studio behind League of Legends have to say about this?
