Overview
Liquipedia is the largest community-driven wiki covering esports, covering information about competitive matches, players, teams, and other aspects of the competitive scene.
I was brought on to expanded the match experience for the League of Legends (LoL) wiki by building a new page that provided fans with much more information about competitive matches than was previously available.
Impact
Match pages launched after I left Team Liquid, so I don’t know the precise impact they’ve had. However, the team was excited about getting the design in the hands of users, and the page today is steadily used by community editors and fans.
The Opportunity
Despite Liquipedia being the largest wiki for esports, it’s adoption in LoL was only okay. So when the largest wiki for LoL lost it’s primary contributor, there was a big opportunity to gain more market share. But in order to do that, Liquipedia would have to provide a better experience. And a clear opportunity was a more robust experience around competitive matches.
Goals
- Ensure that data is easy to digest and understand for fans.
- Help fans quickly construct a clear snapshot of the results quickly.
- Ensure that all information is fully accessible.
- Design a solution that is as flexible as possible.
