What percentage of Liquid does Nazgul own nowadays anyway?
Anyway, pretty unhappy with this pick up. I wouldn't call it selling out, but it's clear that the values that Liquid held for 10 years seem quite changed. They are doing this expansion through a legacy that was built on completely different values of the past, which is upsetting to me.
edit: Anyway, a Liquid Tour de France team would be nice, please make it happen. Lots of gamers are also cyclists from what I've seen.

I'm fairly sure Halo is one of the shooter games that has a pretty high skill ceiling. You might want to play it first before labeling it with something like CoD.

Yeah it feels somewhat out of place for me but I do understand the need to expanding now that Liquid can't solely rely on SC2.

Halo has a lot more then cod in terms of the ability to move around and outplay with grenades or jumps and the like. as someone who's played both quite a bit I feel like it's much less find the guy and quickly shoot him then cod is

Team Liquid Halo team which consists of myself The only way to run a team. Start with yourself.

I think if SC2 was successful, which in my eyes it is not, than I'd see this as others do about selling out. Unfortunately the game is not good enough to keep Team Liquid afloat and I think any competitive team acquisition is great for the direction we are headed in.

They already have a presence in like the 5 biggest games on Twitch, as well as others.
I miss the days of where wearing a Liquid T-shirt meant something. Now I'll be identified by some 14 year old on the train who plays league, it's no longer something to be "proud" of, I guess, if that makes sense.
Oh well, I'm still happy for TL.

Damn it, quit making me depressed with your logic
I love SC2, but I hate the reality of where it's at compared to every other game.

Remember when Liquid was a close knit group that cared about community above business? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

This is pretty cool. Halo and Halo 2 were my #2 game after BW back in the day, I played the hell out of those games.

They did support it in the darkest days though so no hard feelings. Halo 1 and 2, the Ogre Twins were the best. But Halo 3, they won the first event together, then Ogre 1 quit after one year. Ogre 2 eventually got 3 more championships with 3 completely new teammates, for a total of 4. Elamite has 6 H3 championships, tied with Pistola, who was less consistent. Ogre 2 is the GOAT Halo player, but Elamite is the best H3 player.
People saying that Liquid sold out with this is super ironic. You see, MLG sold out by replacing Halo with SC2. Then they sold out again, replacing SC2 with some Moba. Halo is like the anti-sellout game.

MLG didn't replace Halo with SC2, Halo Reach and Halo 4 ran along side SC2 for a long time, it was CoD and League of Legends which replaced Halo in 2012.

it changed ages ago with sc2 and then TL+, new partnerships etc. clearly different surely we had liquidpoker for quite a while but at least the entities were quite separate and it acts more as a stand alone website heh. In either case let them make more money and exposure meh.

So... next is Heroes of Neverth and/or Smite? At least those 2 have more viewers than Halo.
