Teamliquid is a Starcraft website so I dont really understand why dota2 and LoL are featured often on the site, also why aren't other esports games such as cs 1.6 and quake featured when dota and LoL are?

Probably because Teamliquid also supports other E-sports titles.
I don't know how they make the selection tho.

This is the Starcraft 2 forum section, so I don't really understand why you are making a topic about dota and lol here.

I agree with this, also some poeple on the site like LoL and Dota2, and some streamers will randomly stream Dota2 or LoL even though they're pro Sc2 players.

/+1 its really annoying to see so many random streams, TL should stay as a SC forum.

its really annoying check the streamlist and realise that there are many dota2/lol and other games between.

I dont mind personally, a lot of the time its SC2 players streaming it, like CatZ now.
If you are not supporting K-Pop you are hurting E-Sports.

I don't think he will get featured, back when he played bw, he qualified for TSL 2 (iirc), but then decided he couldn't be bothered to play, and was banned as a result.

If they're gonna stream DotA/LoL they should at least stream CS/WC3/FIFA if theyre supporting esports. +1

IMO, DotA and LoL shouldn't even be esports xD

Probably because most TL members including admins/staff/oldies play more LoL and Dota and other games than Starcraft 2 ( or at least as much as)

And also TL is open-minded about what games they can support or not. Anything can get featured. Ng5 used to be featured playing chess. RuN used to be featured as well. Are there cs and quake streamers even in here?

And anyone can customize their own streams list. So if it bothers you that much, you don't have to see them.
