EPT
even if left my position in TLHQ I find it hard to stop thinking about TL and esports. A couple of weeks ago I woke up with the idea about Esports card collecting game. The concept is pretty simple - bridge all TL sub sites and create a fun and engaging feature for people with different interests to enjoy. You can see some concept pages here:
You will be able to buy packs with random cards by earning gold on the TL network. If you are familiar with how the gold store on LiquidDota works, it is pretty similar to that. All activities - logging in, posting, editing Liquipedia and voting on Liquibet will generate gold you can buy the cards with. There won't be any real money transactions!
You will be able to sell cards on a marketplace and earn more forum gold that way. By collecting specific cards you will also unlock a large variety of achievements. There are also going to be leaderboards for top users based on cards collected and gold earned or spent by trading.
I've been discussing with the rest of TL's staff how many cards we should make for people to collect and I think for all games combined the number will be about 600, maybe more. So there will be plenty to do.
Of course it is uncertain if that project will ever become a reality - there's still a lot of work to be done. I just wanted to share with you the concept as it looks like right now, because I've been extremely excited to work on it in the last few weeks.
