In my last retweet, Victor explains the competitive and commercial considerations that influenced our choice to participate in this year’s inaugural EWC. We have not come to this decision lightly, and the video details our concerns about human rights in Saudi Arabia, the circumstances surrounding progress, and our path forward. Victor also shares our considerations regarding our best chance of affecting change and the role that we can play. If you haven't watched or listened to the video yet, please do, as it describes our shared and unanimous approach for Team Liquid as an organization. I agree with everything Victor said. Internally it required a lot of debate and compromise to arrive at a unified stance. After all, this is a deeply conflicting decision for all of us, as we will be accepting money from the Saudi government, despite our reservations. However, this is not the moment to hide and stay silent, and pretend that things will blow over. Instead, we will face the controversy and discontent that will justifiably come our way, and continue to support the causes that are important for TL. I believe we are making the right decision, all things considered, and I wanted to share my personal perspective and the experiences that shaped it. Saudi Arabia's human rights record is undeniably troubling. Over the past year, I've attempted to better educate myself on this issue and its status today. As part of this process, I and fellow TL executives have had conversations with women and queer individuals in Saudi Arabia, and consulted domain experts at multiple NGOs such as Amnesty International and Out Leadership. I myself also visited Saudi Arabia for the first time — in my own way, and not just as part of some trip pre-arranged for me. While there is still much for me to learn, a recurring theme from these experiences has shaped my opinion: Progress lies in engagement, not isolation. Through ongoing dialogue, exchanges, and opportunities to coalesce around shared interests, we might spark conversations and maybe, just maybe, even help inspire incremental change. Progress won’t be swift, and setbacks are inevitable, but in the meantime we at Team Liquid believe that the best way to create change is to include others, and show them that progress is possible. As a gay man, I understand the pain of exclusion. However, as a U.S. citizen, I know my struggles pale compared to what LGBT Saudis face daily. With full acknowledgement of this difference, here’s what I know to be true for myself and my journey: Gaming has been a lifesaver for me when I felt I never fit in. Even though there have been times when I didn’t necessarily feel welcome within the esports community itself, it’s been a consistent source of joy and camaraderie throughout my life — and I’m sure that many of you feel the same way about how important gaming is in your lives. This is why we are all so protective of it. Team Liquid is in a position where we can bring that message to many more people, as long as we continue to speak about it. I’m not suggesting video games alone can save the world. And to that point, I've been inspired by the debate, comments, and fans holding us accountable to our values across the internet. At the end of day, though, I maintain a belief in the transformative potential of gaming and sports. I hope sharing my thoughts sheds light on the perspective I had while contributing to Team Liquid’s decision, and why I remain personally optimistic.

I’m crying fr. So proud of the team
