Indeed and that was pointed out by monte cristo when the rumours of TL getting into LoL started.
How big of a passive aggressive crybaby does somebody have to get mad because an esports team didnt find the time/budget/resources to get involved in their esport of choice?
Nah monte is right in this case. TL was anti lol for a very long time. Do you know how long it took them to even acknowledge that LoL world finals was going on and to feature that stream on the side bar? I remember cause I used to joke about it with a friend about how much TL wanted to pretend that LoL didn't even exist. Their staff was very pro dota 2 and anti lol because they liked dota 2 more to play.

Yeah, and I am a huge cs fan and you don't see me complaining that csgo on liquid is limited to a single thread in the 'other games' section. Different sites gravitate towards different games.

No, it's a different situation because CS:Go is a different genre. It had more to do with Dota 2 vs LoL because the staff was very pro dota 2 because they enjoyed it more and you know about the dota 2 vs lol wars between the 2 groups. Was no different with the TL staff.

Has Liquid ever featured CSGO majors in the sidebar?

Google comes to mind immediately.
But Google has never expressed an interest in Esports. At least to the best of my knowledge. I would expect them to fix their copyright claims system for gaming videos before venturing out into Esports.
Twitch heavily featured and promoted Esports content on their site for years before making the most sensible purchase of EG, probably the most profitable, well-funded, sustainable, etc. Esports organization at the moment with a global presence.

Nope but that hasn't stopped the game from shattering viewership expectations
Nice to see Liquid have a hand in League now even though I don't care for it. Looking forward to seeing chill and hbox play some smash with the liquid tag, and I really hope Liquid can get themselves a dota 2 team again soon.

I mean its their site, if who ever it was who left didn't like it they were always free to start their own. TL has always and will always cover what they're interested in covering, not what is most popular (hence never covering halo or CS or waiting this long to get involed in the FGC in any way.) Monte can bite me
Best news is Fionn is back I guess? I still wish TL was just one massive website again. Don't need Liquidhearth, Liquid Dota, Liquid League, etc. HAVE WE STRETCHED TOO FAR?!
