Weird, why not treat Hearthstone the same as Dota 2, with a sub-forum etc? Won't this splinter the community, instead of expanding it?

Good point now that you mention it, wouldn't it be best to have a "sub-section" on the site for Hearthstone?


This has been discussed back and forth on the staff forums a lot for a while now and I think Nazgul might be better suited to explain it in depth if he wants to, but there is a feeling (one that I share) that TL would get crowded if this one site keeps on expanding into new games and more extensive coverage of more games. People already feel that the site feels less personal and more scattered now than years ago, imagine what would happen if two new sub-sections (each with, arguably, their own sub-communities) were to appear. The site is big as it is, making it even bigger makes it overwhelming for people coming here for the first time.

I can understand that reasoning but I don't agree.

One thing I've always liked about TL.net is that it has been a place that ties various communities together (to some extent). Now I'm fearing that it this will cause more fractures in the community

Another reason for the decision to split the site off (in addition to the overcrowding issue Zealously mentioned, which is a real concern) is that while there is some overlap in Hearthstone and BW/SC2/Dota there isn't that much. Of the game we currently have on our website, Hearthstone would very much be the odd child out, as it doesn't have the kind of deep established roots in competition the same way BW/SC2/Dota do - Nazgul sort of alludes to this sentiment in his statement. When you combine the two factors of difficulty to fit on the website, along with fact that it doesn't have as snug a fit with our current games it makes it much more attractive to custom tailor a site specifically for Hearthstone needs.

Will my TL+ carry-over to LiquidHearth?

Hearthstone is still in beta and at the very least this is a good experiment. I doubt admins will revert if the site doesn't go well but oh well.

Let's try it out.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

To this I have to ask, is Hearthstone big enough to require a site of its own? I mean, it has only 6 subforums pertaining to hearthstone, and one of them is streams.

While I can see the dichotomy between RTS games and card games, was splitting the site a necessity? Rather, if worried about overcrowding, why make such a narrowly focused site? The name itself is limiting the site to only hearthstone.

I'm not against the site per se, but the concept of teamliquid dividing itself into separate specialty forums is bothersome. We already have a filter system to make the site cater more to what you want to follow.

I also have some questions about the new site.
Does this mean that teamliquid has a future invested in Hearthstone? Does this also mean that we should expect more expansion from teamliquid?

LiquidHearth, might turn out as a good thing to have for Team Liquid.

Would love a proper iOS Teamliquid app way more though.

Why? Why not just have one website.

i guess this is just additional info for the Liquidhearth managers so that full credit for the banner art could be displayed, the specific Blizzard artist who did the Hearthstone main art as well as the side art spliced in that's used for the header is L.D. Austin.

I got to meet her and John Polidora at Spectrum last May, they're both artists on the C-dev team at Blizzard (which means they do art for all the franchises).

Well, Team Liquid did get rid of its LOL forums. They used to have a reasonably active sub-forum.

In fact, this afternoon I noticed 200k+ viewers on some LOL stream, and tried to find out what event it was by checking TL's LOL forum, and it was GONE.

The LoL forum isn't gone? There is a possibility it just got removed from your sidebar. Go to settings and check if it's activated.
