The TSL is now sponsored by: RAZER
Two months ago, TeamLiquid had an ambition of bringing the Korean StarLeague experience to the rest of the world. The various members of our staff brought a unique blend of talent and motivation which has created a buzz unlike anything that has come before. The only thing missing was a company who was willing to sponsor a vision rather than look at data. A company that was willing to support an unproven product based on reputation, not revenue streams. A company that understood "community".
Until now. We at TeamLiquid are delighted to announce that our baby has a name, and that name is the Razer TSL. After extensive negotiations we have come to an agreement in which Razer will not only sponsor the entire prize pool of the TSL, but also the substantial cost of streaming the games live to you, the fans. We are delighted to be working with them, and hope that the upcoming league surpasses all expectations.
In an industry notoriously lacking in willing sponsors, Razer has been at the forefront of supporting eSports in all it's manifestations. They are currently supporting twenty-one teams, the top WCIII progamers, as well as numerous LAN events. The Razer TSL, however, represents a step into uncharted territory. We are thankful for their trust, and will do our best to prove that TL is a worthy investment.
In the coming days, TL will be launching a new page dedicated completely to the Razer TSL. In addition, Razer will be more than a silent partner. They will be taking an active interest in the tournament, hosting their own TSL page with a "Guess the TSL Champion" contest.
For more information on Razer and how they support eSports, check out their eSports page at: http://team.razerzone.com/news.php
Of course, you should also check out their main page for all your computer peripherals:

The Razer motto is "For Gamers. By Gamers." This proves it. Please join me in thanking Razer for their vision and support.

A great project with a great company, show your Razer love here

ty razer for being intelligent enough to back this
|
I use razer mouses thinking about getting the keyboard not sure though.
|
Anyone have a tip for the most suitable razor mouse?
I have a big hand so i don't want a small one, rather big ones but that still fits good with the hand.
|
One small step for Razer; one giant leap for foreign e-Sports. This was probably the most significant day in the history of competitive SC outside of Korea.
Edit: Also, recommend me a non-fancy Razer keyboard.

I already have a Razer mouse and due to their amazing gesture sponsoring TSL I'm going to have to invest in a keyboard, as well.

Wasn't someone who frequented TL some time ago an employee of Razer? Or was that some other company? Some more info on the deal with Razer would be cool though. 
Anyway, what would have been the backup plan, if the deal with Razer had not been finalized? ^^

proud owner of razer krait..this mouse is awesomeeeeeee

Proud owner of nothing razer... now I feel like a fucking traitor
|
Perfect timing. I've been using the same mouse for 6 years, and it just died. Razor sponsoring this was a sign from the BW gods.
|
lol razer full respect u do something awesome ! Good job ! god bless u guys !
|
razer is Amazing ~ just like my krait :p
|
Knowing the Razer's products quality and in a sign of respect and appreciation of what Razer did, and is doing, to the e-Sport community, specially with sponsoring a Starcraft tournament, I wanted to say that I just bought a Razer Diamondback 3G.
