But on the other hand, i will never forget how TL community treated whoever liked LoL, it was a SHITSTOM and sadly it was not show but you could feel the same from the staff. I came first here in TL for Brood War, the e-sport i had loved the most, watched all the WoL era until demn patchzergs made the game boring and just moved to another game and scene wish i liked it but for that i was filthy "casual" with no real "skill". I mean it never hurt me, but it was annoying to be marked as one all time. To bring something positive to my grain of salt, i must say that now i have team to follow in the NA LCS (im a EU LCS follow and fan of Gambit Gaming) and really gonna root for TL in the next NA LCS. Let's enjoy the ride guys! | ||

consistently well written articles that get the attention of competitive fans and reddit can make TL even greater. it's up to you crazy volunteer writers and staff. | ||

1. LOL is for kids. We hate it. 2. LOL is a money. We love it. Thorin ftw. | ||

There are many teamliquid mods that wrote articles about LoL since it's inception. the ones that i understand will continue to do so here. | ||

Except for, you know, all the times they use "this isn't a business" as a cop-out. Remember a few months ago when they were looking for Heroes writers, and some people were asking "what are the salary/benefits?" I believe the go-to line then was basically that TL isn't a business, it's all passion and community and people who want to do stuff for the site because they love it so much. Personally, I'd love to see TL become a legitimate Esport organization that crosses into as many games as it wants, and treats its players and staff with professional integrity. But all things considered (especially considering some comments from former Liquid DotA players), it still seems like Liquid is stuck between acting like it's all about #passion and #liquidfamily, and trying to become a major Esports club. | ||

I'm astonished that there are chinese streamers with 300k viewers! Yeah, we're still working on adding some other platforms where pros like Imp/Mata/Dandy stream, will be nice to finally have a western platform where all the Chinese streams are aggregated and listed in a (hopefully) convenient way. | ||

I don't think they still try to act like the #passion anymore. althou I don't know what you are refering to with the comments from former Liquid Dota players. But I have to admit that the sc community was toxic as fuck towards league. I hope that changes. | ||
