Cypher: "Most comfortable... is Cooller" (78 comments)
Posted by Thorin @ 18:04 CDT, 29 June 2010 - iMsg
Over at SK Gaming the DreamHack Summer runnerup Belarus Alexei "Cypher" Yanushevsky talked in an interview about the upcoming ESWC event.

Asked how he matches up with the elite group of players composed of United States of America rapha, Poland av3k and Russia Cooller the IEM IV European champion explained:
Most comfortable for me is cooller, I've played him many times, and I have something inside which gives me opportunity to read him really well. Also I've won several times against av3k, and I also don't feel really uncomfortable playing him. At the moment only rapha gives me a hard time, I don't know much reasons, but maybe one of the reasons is that I stop believing in myself when I'm playing him, it gives him much advantage.

Cypher also gave his thoughts on why he thinks av3k can defeat rapha, which map he would remove from QuakeLive and what he likes about QuakeLive better than CPMA, the Q3 version which brought him his ESWC title in 2008.

The interview can be read at SK Gaming.

Update: Sweden mAdix just confirmed he won't attend the ESWC 2010 finals.
Update2: ESWC forgot about Poland bodzo (doh!), he'll take mAdix' spot in Group B.
Update3: Belgium dem0n won't be able to attend because of exams.

EMS VI TDM - 4Kings over Fnatic in WB (27 comments)
Posted by Badb0y @ 09:00 CDT, 27 June 2010 - iMsg
ESL Major Series Season VI – Quake Live 4on4 TDM

Last thursday 4Kings and Fnatic met in the EMS Winnerbracket final. Both teams on the field were missing one of their top players, Slovakia JoCKo from 4Kings and United Kingdom Deus from Fnatic.


Presumable Fnatic will emerge victorious from the Lowerbracket so Fnatic and 4Kings could be once again face each other, this time in the Grand Final. Fnatic must win 2x Bo3 in the Grand Final, thats the rule coming from Lowerbracket. Grand Final will be played after the ESWC event, that means in two weeks.

For all people who missed the game, LvLup just released the VoD from the thursday match. It seems right now to watch onsite isnt working so download the file (600 MB on Fileplay). Shoutcast from United Kingdom Betija & Belgium Trance.

ESH Quake Live ONW #7: Amateur Night 3 (57 comments)
Posted by PerpetualWar @ 07:22 CDT, 25 June 2010 - iMsg
Scheduled: 13:00 CDT, 24 June 2010 to 16:00 CDT, 24 June 2010
Schedule: Passed

ESH Quake Live ONW #7: Amateur Night 3 will be played Thursday, 13:00 CDT, 24 June 2010 with signups already open.

As already said in ESH Quake Live: Amateur Cup coverage thread, it will be 3rd qualifier for sponsored Amateur Cup that will take place Thursday, 13:00 CDT, 8 July 2010.

Admins will choose who is eligible to participate, but to give you some clue which players will be allowed and which not, take a look at Zotac Hall of Fame. All players that finished in top 3 in any of these cups won't be allowed. Of course some others might not be allowed as well if admins feel like they are not appropriate for this tourney.

Of course needless to say is that fake-nicking won't be allowed and all players that shouldn't be allowed but play under the different nick will be banned from ESH if spotted.

Update: Third qualifier for ESH Quake Live: Amateur Cup ended with the final standings:
1. cup_gold Russia dazator
2. cup_silver Estonia deji
3./4. United Kingdom HawK / Sweden gunther

Unfortunately there has been many bad reactions to dazator's play where he easily pwned all players in this tourney including deji in the finals with the ridiculous score difference. The rumors are that dazator could be fake-nicker but regardless of that his skill definitely preceeds anyone else's (regarding amateur or semi-pro) and as such might not eligible to play in Amateur Cup and some other player would take his spot in the finals. Demos from the finals are already uploaded.
