Did anything happen apart from having to set LoL streams and tournaments to display on the right again and moving the subforums into the "other games" section? and if so why was there a big fuss about it

Good morning Friends! I'm up early for transistor day. Gotta wait 3 more hours though. May stream it depending on how much time I get to sit and play videogames.

Hey Nazgul, thanks for taking the time to come out and here and speak with us. I have a couple of pretty short questions, as Neo and Yango and most of the other staff here have done a pretty good job of answering any we could have had during the initial transition announcement.

1) Is linking the "Other Games" section of the forums to LiquidHearth/LiquidDota a possibility? Perhaps even blogs too? I understand the plan behind splitting up games for news ideas and the like as a good move, but I feel the split drives the community much too far apart.

2) Was the idea of getting a profession League of Legends team ever tossed around by the management team? I feel like after riot announced LCS a year or 2 back some siring of the branches might have happened.

3) Have you ever watched any of the LCS or 'High Level' League of Legends play? If so what were your thoughts?

Hey Nazgul,

thanks for taking the time to answer some of the stuff on here. I was wondering if you could share some figures related to the size of the LoL community on TL compared to some of the communities that have received their own site. Since LoL is most likely one of the most popular eSports in terms of viewership I find it strange that we have liquidHearth but not liquidLeague for example. Is the LoL community here so small compared to the other communities or are there other things that have impacted the decision making in this regard?

The community is only one part of the variables involved with starting a standalone site. News coverage, Staff, Riot esports coverage, existing presence of large community sites, not having a Liquipedia, timing (better to come in early like we were able to do with Hearthstone), and other factors all play an important role as well. We do recognize there is a tight community here but we don't think it translates to standalone site opportunities the way this was the case for other games.


You seem to have listed a lot of factors. Could you maybe elaborate a little on what would need to happen to take League into consideration for a standalone site? News/Tournament coverage seems to be up to date most of the time in the subforum, but some things that you listed will always be out of our control (Riot esports, competition from existing sites, no Liquipedia). Furthermore I was wondering if there are any plans to help grow the League community on TL and counteract the reduced exposure that the LoL subforums will be seeing from now on.

I don't really want to raise expectations so I have to say that right now I don't expect there to be a standalone site.

When will you field a LoL team and give us a site as well ? :3

More seriously, having a dedicated forum is already pretty nice. Remember when we only had a thread ? :p

Just seems so difficult to get into T_T

I really don't think it is a big deal from a practical perspective. However I think the big fuss comes from it being a (however minor) step back. It may not be a big deal in practical use, but it indicates that LoL isn't going upwards on TL. This may be the reason why there is such a response to it.

  1. It's something we want to do. However it's actually really hard to pull off even though it may seem so simple. We're definitely looking into it as based on the feedback we have gotten about it it's something we absolutely want to do.
  2. I tend to think about all options before making decisions so there's always a consideration for that. I do feel it is incredibly hard to get into. We can't exactly buy an LCS spot and I don't know a lot about the scene.
  3. Not enough to comment on. I watched some of the World Finals and the atmosphere was pretty mindblowing.

Anyone else have the draft lock up on them? I had to auto draft after my 2nd pick XD. I just went to bed since the site and game were down.

So when choosing filter options we have a button for "Use Default Sidebar Blocks" but if i understand correctly we don't have an alternative which is what we are losing; A "per game block" for league of legends. This could be because its the only game left with more than one section that doesn't already have one. but if the functionality was already there leaving it in would provide benefits to lol haters and lovers alike. having an option to take league of legends out of the general games and hide it or show it wherever you want is what we had before. turning it off by default is understandable but why remove it. Maybe smash bros or mafia could have a "per game block" for people who care to remove / add it. I was really impressed with the per game blocks and sad to see them gone.

edit: actually by default now, is half of everyone's other games taken up with lol content?

Could we theoretically get LoL articles on front page of TL if they were good enough/only for people who have LoL enabled in their settings?

Are you keeping tech off-screen? I feel like people don't really find it any more unless they explicitly know that it is there

Nazgul, have you guys considered Smite as an up and coming game, and thought about getting a team involved in any of the Hi-Rez Regional Qualifiers?

If you want to drop anybody you can go into add/drop and swap people out for players that weren't taken.
