This will only cause confusion and can potentially harm the TSL (Team liquid Star League) in getting sponsors etc. Especially if the new team gets successful. Not a good situation at all. In my opinion Team Liquid should do everything in its power to have the new team change it's name. | ||

The TSL tag isn't copyrighted under Teamliquid, and after all teamliquid has used Altitude as part of their series name. Asking someone to change their team name just because of TSL seems abit overboard, and besides they already tattooed that name on their arms | ||

In the GSL there are at least 3 teams that I can think of: oGs, WeRRa, Zenith... wouldn't really call any of them pro yet (TSL as well). I may be mixing 'teams' up with 'clans' though (like there's a difference...). I'd say a pro team is a team where you actually earn money. A clan is just family. | ||

Altitude is the sponsor and thus not part of the "brand" itself. Just as the first TSL was the Razer TSL and the second the Pokerstrategy.com TSL Oh and if you REALLY believe they tattooed it on their arm you are very naive or they are very dumb. | ||

A clan is just family. i would say a pro team is a team that makes you able to play the whole day and lets you live from that. so thath would be the case for ogs, prime and tsl, as they live in the teams house. werra is just an online clan as far as i know. | ||

I don't know about the tattoo then. But seriously, asking someone to change their name? TSL wasn't even officially recognized by korea, i bet nobody in korea heard about it and thus they put the name TSL as their team name. But of course if it belongs to TL then i don't know, you can ask them to change their name if you like, if you think that taking the name TSL would severely impact the name Teamliquid and affect us getting sponsors or something. But if thats the case, then you won't have to worry, cause Nazgul, TLO and Jinro would definitely pioneer the course of changing the name. | ||

So there is no risk in mixing them up. As an example let's look at HP. HP is the acronym for Hewlett Packard. A computer manufacturer. However it's also a brand of sauce. As both companies do business in totally different branches there is no risk mixing them up and they can coexist peacefully. However if my name is Harold Powers and I start a company that builds computers you can be sure Hewlett Packard is going to sue me if I try using my acronym (HP) for the brand name. I don't know how these things are regulated in the United States but in the Netherlands it's even unlawful to use the same or very similar name/acronym as somebody else in your branch of business. | ||
