Hey everyone,
As some of you might have figured out, LiquidDota is not in a good place staff-wise at the moment. Over the last few years most of our active staff has gone inactive due to finishing school and/or real life taking over. At the same time, we've had no success in recruiting people to take over from them. The last article we managed to push out was the DPC Season 2 preview, which should tell you a lot.
With TI10 on the horizon, things are starting to look real grim. Over the years we've taken great pride in our team previews. We invested our heart and soul into them, no matter if they popped off or got next to no views. This year, there's no way we can get individual team previous out. And to be honest, even getting something smaller out, like regional previews, is starting to seem less and less likely.
Right now we have two people who could write something (myself and OmniEulogy) but that's not nearly enough to do justice to what we want to do. So that's why I'm attempting a hail mary here. If you have time to spare, we would love to get you on board.
You don't have to be a good writer. Believe me, we've seen worse (I can link you some of my old articles if you don't believe me). We'll help you get going. We'll help you to set up a structure and we'll edit what you've written. If you want to remain anonymous, that's fine too. If you follow Dota well enough to put words about a few teams on a piece of paper, we can probably turn it into a preview together with you.
If you're interested in helping out, either write something here or drop me a PM

When I first started back in 2014 or whenever it was I had literally never written anything that wasn't for school so as Jul has said if you want to help out but aren't sure about your writing and you're worried about that aspect of things - don't be

Ye I'll help out
Where will this be organised, here or via pm, discord, other?
|
I am interested, though it depends on the timeline, September I'll be swamped with work but during TI10 I took two weeks off.

I think we'll set up a Discord channel, makes the most sense to me! I'm gonna gather names for a few days more and I'll send out a PM with the details Thanks for being willing to help!

No worries, we can definitely use people to write recaps and stuff as well! I'll add you to the list! Thanks!

Aaaand a third post in a row: I have sent out a PM to everyone who contacted me regarding writing. If you haven't gotten it, please let me know!
