Reflections with Makaveli: Changing my narrative (8 comments)
( News: Q2)
Posted by Thorin @ 13:56 CDT, 28 July 2025 - iMsg
In the 500th episode of my "Reflections" series I interviewed United States of America Victor "Makaveli" Cuadra, elite dueler and Quake legend.

Makaveli was one of the pioneers of the professional Quake 2 duel scene in the late 90s, along with friends and rivals United States of America Thresh and United States of America immortal. Players like United States of America Fatal1ty and United States of America ZeRo4 have credited him with inspiring their approach to pro play. He became the "unofficial world champion" after beating Norway Shub in an exhibition series after the Norwegian had won EDL.

Makaveli discussed his recent recontextualising of his playing career, the reasons he chose a life without esports and how archiving his past has changed his perspective.

Yes, but this satisfaction came from players performing well, unexpected results and the very fact it has been a new title run, albeit messed up one.

Marketing & organization did all in their power to prevent the above from happening.

Yes as in the tournament went smoothly I guess and the streams seemed fine to me for the most part.

How about the viewership and marketing part of this? $1 million tournament had like 10k viewers? That sounds like a failure to me. It didn't seem to get much attention at all, although I did see a pcgamer article afterwards.

So where's the mixed option? FPS Pulse, ok.

my guess is that they check library and playtime of every open profile in steam... dont know if that is possible, though
