Not really interested in joining the TL guild, though. I've played with some of you guys on TS and some of you are fun folk (not all, sadly,) but I refuse to "submit an application" and "be reviewed based on my availability/etc" for the main PVP guild. I had top-20 GvG success in Vanilla GW1 (for what little its worth) just by enjoying the company of my friends, and as far as I'm concerned, that's the best way to structure a guild. I trust my friends more than I trust somebodies resume. That said, I wish you guys the best of luck, anyway. I look forward to seeing the TL Guild zerg it up on WvW. I just hope I'm on the right team when that happens. As for Arenas, well, best of luck with making a team that gets along together, I guess. | ||

Your first impressions are skewed a bit. The main reason we formed so long ago is because of your exact "just by enjoying the company of my friends". There's very few in the guild who are strangers, and most have known each other for over a year or more, playing games such as what you mention, League, and others over time. I think you'll find while hanging out that you'll naturally click with certain personality types in TS, some I feel share the same attitude you do. That being said, you can easily bring any friends with you into the guild via the Vanguard system. Consider joining the Vanguard, where to get in (to that part of the guild) you literally need someone in the guild to vouch for your maturity and aptitude. Nothing else, no resumes, no attendance. It's a free pass for those who do not wish to take the game so seriously. Otherwise we're more concentrated on our situation in structured PvP than we are in WvW, but we are forming tactics and relationships in the same manner, because we have so many excited for it. However you wish to call it (zerging or otherwise) guilds/servers like what we're organizing will be the ones shooting to the top. We look forward to working with vVv and others in our alliance to make sure that in the case of WvW, we continue to be well known and respected. And your GvG experience is well respected, don't downplay it. I wish you the best. | ||

I feel a bit afraid that i'll get whooped just for having no proof of my teamwork experience, any tip on getting into TL? Maybe i can join Legacy Vanguard meanwhile, how may i get a referral? I'm a LoL player too and sadly... I haven't found many people from the teamliquid community, I heard that "liquidparty" is kind-of random right now... I would suggest hopping on our TeamSpeak anytime during the nights, as we always have 20-30 people playing League of Legends to pass the time til GW2. Feel free to poke in about the latest in SC2 as well, considering a large majority of the members are Team Liquid community members, and love the debates. In terms of getting into the guild via Vanguard, it happens naturally as one of the guild members sees your a genuine guy, and not a complete dick. It's that easy. | ||

As far as I understand once you sign up for beta access you're entered into the drawing for all future beta weekends. (Not positive though) but preording the game will give you automatic access to all future beta weekends. According to Anet's twitter, the next beta weekend event should be happening at the end of April, though theres no concrete date yet. | ||

What is being done during these times as from what I understand there are no instances raids ala WoW. Your forgetting about WvW bud. That is never ending. When we are not doing WvW we are doing structured PvP in scrimmage groups. We have a dedicated group of the guild who are doing Structured pvp 24/7 too. | ||

And your GvG experience is well respected, don't downplay it. I wish you the best. Vanguard is fine, I think it would be better if any TL person could get in (being allowed to build friendships witin GW2 rather than forcing them to play SC2/LoL/etc,) with a probationary thing going on to weed out any people who don't fit in. But, ultimately, how Vanguard is run doesn't concern me. I'm talking about your try-outs for the main A-team PVP Arena squad. If you're opening the guild to the public and restricting your A-team to "whoever played league of legends with us and theorycrafted GW2 the most," or any other kind of aptitude tests, it's not very inviting. I respect that for structured PVP you have to choose 5 competent people to represent the guild, to climb whatever GW2 PVP ladder exists, but a lot of people will be left out in the process. My ultimate suggestion (I guess I should have gotten this out of the way sooner) is that instead of creating an "A-Team," a separate guild should be made for each squad of 5-7 people. You'd have something like "Team Legacy Vanguard" (PVE and WvW) which everybody is in, and on Arena-specific characters, they'd be in guilds such as "TL Battalion," "TL Assault," "TL Bombardiers" or whatever. Groups of friends can create their own PVP Squad within the Vanguard (instead of an A Team representing the whole teamliquid.net forums) and, if they choose to WvW with those characters, unite under the same banner via Teamspeak or whatever. This would welcome everybody to represent Team Legacy / the Teamliquid.net forums with more freedom. It would complicate things a little, sure, and I know that there are guild benefits that you can level up and whatnot, but ultimately I think it would still be better. If you have an A-Team competing for all the glory and a B, C, D, E and F team either forced to play unranked matches or possibly tank the guilds arena ladder rating, it's not really fun for anyone. This is just my constructive criticism anyway. I know you never asked for it, and I'm not trying to tell you what to do or step on your shoes, I'm just envisioning ways I believe would improve it if I were to consider joining. Ultimately, I'm not asking you to make these changes for me, but for the sake of a fair and inviting teamliquid.net based guild. I respect that you've probably put more work in to this than anyone, but a public guild should have a more lenient hierarchy. Not everybody wants to WvW. edit: I'm told that maybe I made a mistake, maybe you're not affiliating Team Legacy as a "Team Liquid guild." If that's the case, I take back a lot of what I said, so long as it wouldn't be frowned upon to make a Teamliquid guild and not be seen as competing for attention. Is this true or whats the deal there? A thread name change might be in order, if that's the case. | ||
