 . My favorite esport games to watch are Dota 2, Brood War, and Quake Live, with occasional Counterstrike Global Offensive and Starcraft 2. Are you going to expand into other games? | ||

In contrast to comis, I think the vertical panels are fine for the events panel, but I agree it's not quite as nice visually for the stream panel. Something like a horizontal banner per game that when clicked could expand could then "push" down the other game banners to have the list of streams. Or maybe something running off the more tab like game swapping paradigm you're exploring on the main events page. Although, I assume since you're working on implementing a 5th game, you're probably already thinking about these sort alternatives that would give each game it's own elbow room on that panel. I'm also not a big fan of hiding the matches. It maybe help a little bit to the clean design, but at a detriment to ease I think. What players are involved make a big difference about whether I'm interested or something and I think how you implement the 4 player scheme is still pretty minimal and good looking. If you're really not sold on that, maybe you could have an option for users of whether they want them shown or hidden. A few small things: -The "results" popup doesn't really have the expected information. ie - for WCS it only shows the generic written information and not the matches. For GSTL it shows only the first match and I don't think showing all the players on the team is really the interesting or relevant tbh. -There are some features that don't give proper feedback when used (ie - a hover or on-click effect.) The game headers on the schedule page (It took me a realize to even notice that function), the arrows on the single game schedule page, the arrows on the main event panel, and the bookmark button are the ones I thought noticeable. And on that note... -What *does* the bookmark feature do. My guess was to save a game as default on the schedule panel (which I would LOVE), but it doesn't appear to work. I'm not sure if it's just not been implemented or if it's something else entirely, like just saving the page to your bookmarks. -The design of the three panels is not terribly consistent as far as usage goes, which can sometimes can cause confusion. Like the fact that clicking one of the game titles on the stream panel doesn't expand that game's column. I haven't decided if the main event panel provides a nice variety in the design, or if it'd be nicer to keep the same game menu paradigm.... I *think* I like it. Though those tiny icons might become a bit clutter-y as you add on more games, but you can decide to deal with that design issue when you come to it. | ||

I'd have to wait before I could compare the two because a) Team Liquid doesn't feature everybody and b) the TL Calendar isn't always up to date and sometimes the times are wrong when it comes to certain games (whether it be on the hosts side or not).

At least when I click on one specific game, I want to get a list of all streams for that game. Just checked it out for myself and couldn't agree more. | ||

Yeah, I think what all current stream/gaming news sites lack is the ability to customize the site to suit your interests (TL being the exception) I would use the twitch main site to find streams, but it is all cluttered up with irrelevant games (to me) like LoL, while disregarding my viewing habits and recommending me LoL streams over and over again. If you add the customization, you can also add additional info/streams, without losing the clean look. Maybe also add a column for general (multigaming-) events, like IEM, DH, maybe EVO or the GDQ series. Looks good though. | ||
