TL.net is recruiting SC2 writers

Text byTL.net ESPORTS
January 6th, 2021 09:34 GMT

Up/Down

TL.net is looking for new writers to keep up its coverage of professional StarCraft II in 2021. We're looking for writers who can handle a variety of material including previews, recaps, historical retrospectives, and opinion columns. Ideally, we are looking for writers who can commit to covering a tournament/league for an entire season cycle. This is a paid position after a short, initial trial period.

How to Apply: Send an application containing the following to k.woo@teamliquid.com (Waxangel)
  • Your TL.net ID and Discord contact information.
  • Short introduction about your background in StarCraft II.
  • Preferred leagues or tournaments to cover.
  • Availability and desired workload.

Please include two sample articles.
  • Tournament Preview - Example 1 - Example 2 - Example 3

    Write a preview for an upcoming StarCraft II tournament. The preview should be written in whatever style best represents your knowledge of StarCraft II esports, whether that's breaking down a four-player group on a match-by-match basis, or looking over the overarching storylines for an entire tournament. It's fine to choose a small-scale event to preview, considering that DreamHack Masters Last Chance is the only major event coming in the near future.

  • Freestyle Article - Example 1 - Example 2 - Example 3

    Write an article on a StarCraft 2 esports related topic of your choice, whether it's a player, team, strategy, or a historical event. Pick a topic that you're really interested in, as this is a chance to show us the depth of your knowledge and passion for StarCraft II esports.

Someone on reddit was posting these fantastic write-ups of GSL earlier in 2020. I didn't see any for the latter part of the year, but I hope that person is still around and interested.

Do samples need to include any of the graphics/images that appear in the samples and most pieces posted on the site?

Don't worry, this is a great way to get back into writing non-fiction.

I studied history & anthropology in college so I wrote a lot of papers and essays, but that was 20+ years ago..

Could anyone from TL be more specific about what you' re looking for in terms of historical retrospective articles?

Two recent examples include the soO retirement article and the Disaster Theater pieces, and you're very welcome to pitch your own ideas.

To confirm, for the tournament preview article, it would have to be an event that has not yet been completed at the time of the article correct? or are recently completed events also acceptable?

Awesome! I'm very interested and I can already think of 10 good article subjects off the top of my head. Hopefully Mr. Waxangel will kindly consider my submissions; as I have today off, I'll have some time to make a proper attempt.

Thank you for letting us know!

Hey, just a quick question! Do the two articles need to cover both of the categories (preview and freestyle) or can we choose to do 2 articles in the same style (for example preview) as long as we write them both on different topics? Thanks a lot!
