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.

Co-ed, Game Changers, and Valorant’s trans players
For Valorant, and many esports, trans athletes can get stuck in an awkward position - plagued by stigma in me's leagues and sometimes forbidden from women's.

A Game of Superlatives With the Rocket League Team
The Liquid Rocket League players all have different talents, in and out of the game. One player might counter their opponents the best and be the friendliest to fans, whereas someone else might work the hardest, or make his teammates laugh the most. To figure out who excels at what, we played a game of superlatives. We asked the squad to pick who on the team is the best passer, communicator, LANimal, cook, banterer, and much more!.

What’s in a Comfort Game?
What's in a comfort game? It's a surprisingly big question. As gaming has evolved, more people turn to it not just for amusement but comfort and solace as well. We conducted a survey of TL staff, asking them what their go-to comfort or mental health game was, and why? In turn, what we found was an exploration into what comfort means to people, both in gaming and the wider world.
