Team Liquid
Team Liquid is a professional esports organization, founded in the Netherlands in 2000. Originally a Brood War clan, the team switched to SC2 during the SC2 Beta in 2010, and became one of the most successful foreign teams. On December 6, 2012, it was announced that the team had formed a Dota 2 division.[1] On June 12th, Liquid took in its first player by picking up Amaz.
Team Liquid is also strongly associated with its website, TL.net. Launched on May 1, 2001, it has developed through the years into a focal point for StarCraft and Dota 2 coverage, eventually became the most-browsed StarCraft-related website in the world, gathering thousands of members (including several professional players) and centralizing news about the global SC2 scene. On August 30, 2012, Teamliquid.net announced expansion into Dota 2 coverage.[1] The website also features a progaming database, the TLPD, as well as a wiki dedicated to Brood War, StarCraft 2, Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone, Super Smash Bros., Dota 2, and Counter-Strike, Liquipedia.
