As the Race to World First has grown, so has Liquid Guild. The Race was once a battle between raiders alone, but now it's the biggest event in World of Warcraft - and one of the most unique and deep esports in the world. With all that depth comes all kinds of layers and perspectives. The primary view is no longer just the raider, the healer, the dps, the tank but also the caster, the analyst, the producers, and even more.

Why is the FGC so Queer?
In the broader fighting game community, but in the Guilty Gear community especially, there’s a running joke that if you sit down at the setup and your opponent is a trans kid, you have no chance of victory.
