TWL Network

Better online multiplayer

We are connecting players to play more games in more ways. We host gamer-run ladders, leagues, events and servers using a framework developed from the original TWL model.

Play more games

Building stacks of organized players to deploy together and against one another in games, regardless of the game’s age or mainstream popularity, is what we aim to continue doing. Collaborating with various gaming cultures not only gives us the insight, opponents and support we need; it also gives us more quality games to play with more players.

Recognition breeds quality

We believe that hostinga place where you will bump into familiar faces and where people will recognize your name and accomplishments benefits the community as a whole. As the video game industry shifts away from providing dedicated servers and focuses on their own pro-level competitions, gaming communities struggle to stay afloat. At TWL we seek to return to that lost feeling of togetherness by providing an environment where players of all skill levels can interact, meet up for games, and create positive gaming experiences together.

Ladders matter

Ladders hold an unassailable quality: they are a natural fit for being both inclusive and balanced. Every competitor joins the bottom of the ladder and inevitably works their way up to being surrounded by equally skilled opponents. Ladders can house multiple ecosystems within communities and provide endless, balanced entertainment without bias. Losing a match doesn't eliminate you like other leagues, it just affects your W/L history - and you can play again and again.

Why this reboot is different

There's been a few over the years, we think this one will stick for several reasons:

• We know each other: we’re the same group of people that met at TWL years ago and still get along really well after all these years. There's mutual respect and stability amongst the group, and we’ve already overcome adversity together before.
• Demonstrable interest: during the TWL gap years we've never stopped hosting games, filling rosters, or putting together community-based events. We’re still really interested in this stuff and look to share that interest with like-minded people.
• A shared nostalgia: our standards and values are based off of what we cherished back when TWL was experiencing its heyday, we've wanted this for a long time as gamers.
• World-class infrastructure: scalable, integrated, modern and we've got backups this time ;)
• Holistic view: having internalized the good, the bad and the ugly, we feel more ready than ever to consider the big picture and deliver something great. We look to focus our time and attention on building strong communities and participating in gaming experiences that speak to the way we like to enjoy games.
• Benefit of time: the journey from TWL to other leagues, through other reboots, on to RGN and now back has granted us unparalleled experience and insight.

How you can start using TWL right away

Connect to our Discord and start talking/gaming today. TWL is a group-agnostic environment: use it to find teammates, clan mates, opponents, gaming events and more. By centralizing some of this activity we can further help players and teams extend the life of their gaming experiences by making new allies and rivals and by providing competitions and game nights to join. Come introduce yourself, promote your group, share your stream, or collaborate with us and organize something awesome for your community.
