Schedule: Passed

Having been stark supporters of competitive FPS, ZOWIE (in partnership with Excello) are proud to announce a series of weekly duel cups for one of the most renown deathmatch FPS games, Quake Live, starting with Saturday 8th December.

A unique feature of this cup is the fact the ESReality community has been given a chance to vote on a map list from every map used in competitive tournaments over the years, and then to further our requirement for a competitive map-pool, Portugal Ins has carried out a survey of pro-level duelers and given them weighted votes (worth 2/5 votes depending on expertise and stature).

The following is the finalized map list (and you'll find that both the open and the closed, high-skilled duelers/LAN attendees voted in a similar way!)


Note: You will not be able to register in the check-in phase, so please register as soon as you can if you have any intention of playing.

Posted by therogue @ 04:08 CST, 23 November 2012 - iMsg
The ESL together with the developers, Illfonic, are happy to announce a €4000 tournament for Nexuiz.

Following on from the update earlier this week which brought high performance UGLY mode and made the previously pay DLC a part of the regular game, the developers are eager to try to jump-start a competitive community for the game.

Nexuiz is currently in the Steam autumn sale for €5 (half price) or €15 for the 4 pack.


Early sign up is open here. When the dates of the cups have been fixed the post will be updated and everyone signed up will be mailed.

Illfonic, the small studio behind the game, have been working hard on improving the game since it's release in May. Their aim is to bring deathmatch back into the spotlight, with a fast, fun and visually attractive game built on the latest CryENGINE 3.
