Interview with Luke "LukeLawlz" Hanlon (60 comments)

( Major News: ESR)

Posted by zauron @ 21:23 CDT, 13 June 2012 - iMsg

Event: DHS'12

This interview will feature a rather unfamiliar face to many of you, unless you're well aware of all the latest happenings revolving around the Quake scene. Literally a no-one until a few weeks ago, the Irish's name firstly resonated when the qualifiers of the Dreamhack Summer 2012 got revealed. Nobody expected his name to be featured, including the young talent himself. Luke “Lukelawlz” Hanlon will make his first appearance at a major gaming event this weekend being only 16 years old, making the teen one of the first juveniles to ever compete at this stage. Luke was kind enough to catch up with us for a quick interview, right before leaving for Sweden.

It's been a long road, but you're finally living every gamer's dream; you're about to head off to Sweden to compete in one of the world's largest e-sports tournaments. How are you feeling?

I feel excited, to say the least. I've watched many streams of QL tournaments over the years and it always seemed like it would be fun to be playing there. I'm looking forward to travelling there and meeting everybody I've played against over the past few years.

Level Up TV is proud to announce we will once again be covering the Quake Live Tournament from DreamHack Summer 2012. To explain all about it I (

Disrepute) sat down with

Zoot for a quick chat.

Enough! Do you ever stop talking! Lets get onto DreamHack already! What are you most looking forward to?

Everything, even the technical issues. No, but really.. I want to see why it is known to be the largest LAN event in the world – I want to meet all the people I’ve been streaming and I want to laugh at Insan3 when he loses all his games :D

EDL #10: Division 1 Grand Final (32 comments)

( Major News: Q2)

Posted by Welkin @ 16:25 CDT, 12 June 2012 - iMsg

Scheduled: 15:00 CDT, 14 June 2012 to 16:30 CDT, 14 June 2012
Schedule: Passed

Here's a heads-up from the Quake2 scene... The European Duel League started its 10th season in September and has now finally come to its last games. This season was the first to feature four different divisions, and also a considerable deal of prize money. Perhaps this 15 year old game still has something to offer after all?

On Thursday, June 14th, at 21.00 CET, the Division 1 Grand Final will take place. It will be a battle of wits and grits between veteran powerhouse

PURRI and the new kid on the block,

David. Best out of seven maps - no mercy, no remorse.

LIVE Stream & GTV: Stream welkin.se/final or GTV 85.17.208.107:27910 (which you connect to using your Q2 client). For more info on the league, visit the website: q2scene.net/edl.
