Finally decided to focus on the #1 eSport out there, well done. Took a while but better late than never I guess.

Considering how anti-LoL TL has been in the past, happy to see some progress finally. Too bad TL is years late to the party.


Indeed and that was pointed out by monte cristo when the rumours of TL getting into LoL started.











How big of a passive aggressive crybaby does somebody have to get mad because an esports team didnt find the time/budget/resources to get involved in their esport of choice?


Nah monte is right in this case. TL was anti lol for a very long time. Do you know how long it took them to even acknowledge that LoL world finals was going on and to feature that stream on the side bar? I remember cause I used to joke about it with a friend about how much TL wanted to pretend that LoL didn't even exist. Their staff was very pro dota 2 and anti lol because they liked dota 2 more to play.

I mean its their site, if who ever it was who left didn't like it they were always free to start their own. TL has always and will always cover what they're interested in covering, not what is most popular (hence never covering halo or CS or waiting this long to get involed in the FGC in any way.) Monte can bite me


Naturally, this is their site and organisation and they get to do exactly what they want, that doesn't mean it's not scummy. The hate on LoL on these forums was massive when it became clear that LoL would be the flagship of e-sports. But it wasn't just the community, TL staff took part in it too. And now they are all happy and excited to be part of the LoL e-sports scene? After, like mentioned, systematically trying to ignore the whole thing even existed?

There's a difference between simply not picking up a game because your not interested, and not pick up the game due to ''hardcore gamer'' elitism and envy. In which one do you think TL falls? Especially a few years back when LoL rose and made it clear that SC2 would never be the e-sport it was hyped up to be? When the Koreans chose LoL over SC2 and Dota 2? The salt on this forum was a sight to behold. (I know, because I was one of the salty ones, I wanted SC2 to succeed so badly. I refused to be a StarCraft elitist though.)

If you honestly think TL suddenly got interested in LoL after years of shitting on it, then you're naive. This has nothing to do with interest. It has to do with the fact that Dota 2 failed to deliver on it's promise to be the ''LoL killer'' it was hyped out to be, which means LoL will stay as the un-disputed flagship of e-sports for the years to come.

This is a BUSINESS move from TL to tap into a bigger market and bigger scene, nothing more. A good one at that, even if it means supporting a ''game for casuals'' like LoL.

The money to compete against the upper echelon of teams is huge! This is pretty big news and I think the people coming in to work with Liquid will bring exactly what was needed. Another step towards world domination pinky

Wow, this is huge news. Still trying to get my head around it, but seems like it's an awesome development. Like Nazgul said, it was hard for Liquid to compete against the mega organizations like EG and Cloud9. This will allow them to compete on an even footing.
Don't mind me

This is so unexpected and cool. I think Liquid and Curse have a lot of similarities and this merger should be pretty seamless. I'm a dota player at heart but LoL is a great game as well and Curse was a pretty competitive squad. It was definitely a well managed squad which in my opinion means the best for the future. GL to the new Liquid, hope they also get a dota squad soon :D

Are TeamLiquid and LiquidDota going to be revamped to be similar to LiquidLegends?
I have to say the design of the website is awesome, very streamlined and easy on the eyes.

the internet has very happy rules:
cooperation > competition
inclusiveness > exclusiveness
sharing > ownership
the reward is always growth
i.e. resitance, is futile, all e-sports can be assimilated..
1 becomes 2 becomes 3 becomes 4 etc.. to finally become one cube

Really wondering about that a lot myself, especially for TL itself!

Interesting. I guess its clear that both teams thought that they couldn't make it on their on hence a merge. good luck to both but this is a clear showing that the sc2 scene is not stable on its own. Curse wants to solidify their perception in the pro scene by pairing up with the most stable sc team of all time.

Welcome to TL! :D

Okay, please tell me they're also announcing a Dota 2 team since they did tease about it in 12 Days of Christmas. Not that I have anything against League or anything. )
