Thanks Team Liquid, with all your awesome merchandise I'm now going to be spending my entire Christmas budget on myself. Friends and family can suck it. I need t-shirts and mouse pads!!
Looks pretty, but I can't use it, the colors are too contrasting. My mouse will mess up if it passes over the light blue from the dark, such as between the neck and head. I had to get rid of the mousepad that came with my computer for the same reason, because the logo in the middle would screw up the accuracy.

Shouldn't happen with lazer mice, no?
I want this mousepad, and I don't even use mousepads. I hope they do a run of 1000 of these.
I would like those to be in the TL Store, in fact, the TL store should be greatly expanded with stuff like this. if Fnatic has all sorts of crap with there name on it then so should liquid imo.
HerO and TLO already plays with it ;-) Myself and Tree.hugger ended up taking the other two that were made.. They're good - this is the speed goliathus.

Yessss. I have a large speed version Goliathus pad right now and I LOVE it. If/Once the TL version goes on sale I will buy it in an instant ^_^
If this is actually going to happen, can I please say now that I will buy at least one, irregardless of price, I will skip meals to have this.

So the price does affect if you will buy it?
and yeah, those are some awesome mousepads
Irregardless and Regardless mean the same thing. Nice job with the fail correction, though.
Irregardless is not a word. It might be listed because so many yokels use it but it is non-standard english and frowned upon in all major style and usage guides.
I have a Razer Goliathus as well as one of the Ttesports White-Ra mousepads, so chances are I wouldn't pick this up right away, but it looks very nice.
I already own a steel series black mouse mat and the steel series SC2 (zerg) edition mouse pad.. Currently one is on top of the other. I would 100% buy another one just to own a TeamLiquid mouse mat!
Now that is a sexy design -- simple, clean, impactful. What I don't understand is why the new TL merchandise have those ugly middle school style "XTREME" designs. Ick...
Need it as a sphex! No really. The sphex is the best mousepad that razer has ever made. Its almost as smooth as an icemat and its at a price which laughs in the face of other so called "premium gaming surfaces".
I'll be honest, I would rather have a SlayerS one (especially if it's of the quality of that mousepad), but that is f***ing awesome. I'll take two please!! :D
Please sell them Razer! I still use a stock Dell mouse pad, but I've been thinking about asking for a nice one for Christmas. If they start selling a TL one (or SlayerS <3) I would definitely buy one.
I'll buy one, hopefully they stay in stock longer than the TL shirts! (still bitter about not getting either of the TL shirts I wanted before they sold out haha)
I usually abhor buying razor products because some mentally deficient part of me makes feel like a poser BUT I WOULD BUY THIS NO QUESTION NEW MOUSEPAD ALL THE WAY
It's made by razer. I hope they're holding off because TL is still test driving this. Really want it. I've been thinking about getting the EG pad, but if this was made available, I would buy it in a heart beat
Reddit post is so lol. "Take all my money!" "NEED. NOW" and so on :D Making fun of them.. My mouse pad is pretty old already. Maybe I should consider buying a new one..
edit: oh okay. no difference between this thread and reddit ^^

Ok the first thing I have to say is. Once TL perfects the selling of t-shirts and can keep up with demand THEN AND ONLY THEN they can attempt to sell mousepads. that is all

The key is not to make enough so everyone gets one. They key is to make slightly less than enough so people are astounded at how fast they sell out, and more hype builds up for the next shipment and even more people want them. I'd say they've damn near perfected the art of selling t-shirts.
PLEASE put me on the waiting list. I've had a personal mantra of "don't buy things that places give away for free" but that mousepad is so awesome I'd happily pay actual dollars for it.
It will look nice under my DeathAdder and next to my BlackWidow Ultimate. (Razer Supports Team Liquid; I support Razer. That's how it works.)

Haha me too, never to late to make the switch lolol. Would pop one of these bad boys on my fridge!!
I've been trying to decide what new mousepad to purchase for a lowly, but improving player. If this pad exists I'd definitely buy it and use it, knowing that I have both a quality item and am supporting the starcraft community [specifically TL].
I would 100% buy this mouse pad, as long as the price wasnt way ridiculous, if that matters to anyone out there thinking about selling one of those :D.
Man, this is sooooo sexy. One hell of a mouse pad. Hope they will get to production and then somehow Razer will distribute these to Asia so I can buy one.

Are Goliathus good for collecting autographs? Currently Im using a steelseries plastic hard-pad and autographs looks awesome in silver marker (still all shiny and stuff :3). Would def want to get a mousepad and collect TL signatures, but im wondering if the material used to make it is good for that kind of stuff? Just quoting you since you actually have one.

I'll be frank, It is difficult to write on a goliathus. it's not the best sig mousemat
my former goliathus is sooo used after 3 years and my new steelseries 4HD isnt very my styl bc its relatively small and I think I dont prefer Hardpads as much, SO PLEASE RELEASE THIS ASAP PLS, but also max 30€ pls^^

Man, I've been wanting a gaming mouse pad for a long time now. That looks so sexy, I always loved the simplicity of the Liquid logo. I would buy that in a heartbeat.

Product Dimensions: 3.1 x 13.2 x 3.4 inches ; 1.4 pounds
There is nothing i would like more then to have like 3 of these one for me to use and the others for the Liquid players to sign at events and such. Would be so awesome can not wait!

And it's actually considered a table carpet. I put my keyboard mouse and Mixamp on it
Any estimated cost yet? And just as a suggestion, adding a personalized option (name of favorite(s) Liquid players and an image of their autograph would be cool as hell for more awesomeness)
I bought a DKT megamat back in '02 (iirc) and it still the mousepad I am using today. If you can get your hands on one of these babies do it. Make sure its the XL!
I don't like product hype. But this is it. That has got to be the final version, at least in terms of design. It is perfect. I would consider getting a translucent hard plastic pad to put over this, i am liking the plastic and i would hate anything to happen to this sexyness

I think I would have to grease the table for this to move.
I'm all over this once they decide to sell them. Maybe two or three depending on price. I've been long looking for a mouse pad with a design that I could not only get behind, but also isn't embarrassingly ugly or tacky. Thankfully Steelseries sells blank QCK mats, but I don't want to ask a Liquid player to sign a Steelseries mat!
Looks amazing. However, I hope it doesn't suffer from the problem that my current Razor Goliathus has: the middle edge gets worn (thin layer of fabric gets pulled up off of sponge base) where I rest my wrist (Triquetral bone). Make sure you get Razor to glue it down better or else it'll look worse after a while.
Goliathus is the best cloth mousepad in the market (I didnt try zowie, but they are 2x more expensive than razer). QcK/Roccat is cheaper but after 6-12 months its a garbage... my goliathus is 3 years old and its still good, and thats pretty long for a cloth mousepad.
If TL goliathus will be same price then ill definitely get it, but probably it will be 50% or something more than original goliathus.

Does that mean our mousepad is a no? It says the winning team gets a custom mouse made, though, not a mousepad. Anyway, if Razer isn't going to do it, than someone certainly needs to make this happen.

at least TL Starcraft team #1

I'm pretty sure you're assuming wrong
I think YOU are wrong Yes, there is a Rox.Kis SC2 Team (Hi Titan), but they don't have as much exposure here as they have in other e-sports
those are rather cheap mousepads though I think. Aside from the fact that they are high friction (which maybe some people prefer), they wear out and get dirt over time. My family got one like 7-9 years ago and it got into junky shape within a year or two maybe (turns yellow, picture fades, etc.)
What there are though are mousepads that have 2 pieces: a removable clear cover, and a base to support the cover and hold a picture.
It's essentially like a windowed picture frame. I've been using one for countless years (probably like 5-10), and it's still working great (I don't bother putting any picture in it). The only downside is for whatever reason it has a black piece of cardbord that goes under the photo as well (3rd piece), and over time this thing developed a bunch of splotches on it, making it look dirty, but it's really just paper gunk on the other side of the clear window surface.
While not for everyone, makeshift mousepads from picture frames or cooking sheets work very well I've heard.
So glad it finally went on sale, too bad I bought the SK gaming steelseries mat just 2 months ago... maybe Ill purchase the tl one anyway... too much stuff to buy!
Hmm I just ordered one, it didn't say anything about being sold out?
Funny thing, ordering it from USA to ship over the seas to Finland gave me a total price 10euros lower than same pad -TL logo from a finnish webstore was offering me... :D

Mine just shipped yesterday and I ordered it like last Saturday, would have had it shipped to my apartment had I known it wouldn't make it in time for Spring Break to be over >.< Hope it makes it in before Sunday night when I leave (USPS doesn't deliver Sundays so realistically tomorrow is when it will need to get in)

I just revived the mouse pad. It is very well worth it and it is in great quality. Not only it is a great mouse pad but you will look 20% cooler with the team liquid logo on your mouse pad.

Its a colloquial term, even though it logically makes no sense it is still a word
Irregardless is an informal term commonly used in place of regardless or irrespective, which has caused controversy since it first appeared in the early twentieth century. Most dictionaries list it as "nonstandard" or a word which has become socially acceptable. "Nonstandard" means the word is a colloquialism, not "incorrect" or not a word.

I was told they will open a European based store soon, so maybe when they fill the stock for that they will also get a new wave of mousepads and stuff for the na store.

sorry for the bump, but i have this mousepad since basically day 1, and it's getting pretty dirty, I wonder how could one clean it without damaging it/ leaving marks thanks !
same cleaning regimen applies to most mousepads. I would be more careful the more soft the surface of the pad when brushing it clean. Also cleaning your mousepad more often will help keep it newer longer. As example, I've had my Artisan Hayate now for 3 years and it still looks and works like new as I clean it every 2 weeks or so.

the engrish is strong with this one ^^ so basically, detergent with a toothbrush ? But what kind of detergent, dish soap ? body soap ? soap soap ?
I play with the mini from steel series and I recently replaced mine after 1 year of hard use. I was hugely surprised in the performance increase. Maybe those last longer, but would consider replacing.
