ESH Spring Cup 2014 Finished (25 comments)

( Major News: QL)

Posted by PerpetualWar @ 14:58 CDT, 3 July 2014 - iMsg

Esports Heaven Spring Cup 2014 has come to an end. On the next pages you can find match reports of all games that have been played in any of the game modes we ran (TDM, CTF, CA) alongside with VODs that were recorded and final standings.

TDM proved once again to be most popular game mode, with 18 signups, spread across 3 divisions and it had 7 dropouts from the league. All in all, it is considered success even though its evident that TDM numbers are in decline as well.

CTF failed with only 8 signups and 2 dropouts. Under normal circumstances cup would be canceled with this number of teams, but we decided to respect the teams that actually signed up and run the league after all. It was played in Double Round Robin format as playoffs weren't viable at all.

CA had solid 14 signups and only 3 dropouts from the league. It had two divisions and was followed by CA players regularly, so its also considered a success.

ESH will be back for Fall Cup 2014, while we are taking a break at summer. Big thanks to

doz3r (TDM admin),

cenix (CTF admin),

DePaS (CA admin),

nVc (streamer),

funnyb (streamer) , Sapphire (sponsor) and others who made this cup possible. Enjoy reading the rest of the report and see you again at Fall !

New QL Subscription Pricing (247 comments)

Posted by SyncError @ 14:00 CDT, 2 July 2014 - iMsg

We are happy to announce today a change to our subscription service. Effectively immediately, we have permanently lowered the price of Pro subscriptions and are no longer selling Premium subscriptions, bringing us down to one subscription level. We have some additional changes in the pipeline for the coming weeks and months, but wanted to get this first step out as soon as we could. Be sure to follow us during QuakeCon, as we will have some more Quake Live related news to announce there!

How are Quake Live subscriptions changing?

What happens to my Premium subscription?

I just purchased a Premium subscription, and want to upgrade to Pro. Can I do this?

First eight invited players for QuakeCon (287 comments)

( Major News: QL)

Posted by roychez @ 13:21 CDT, 27 June 2014 - iMsg

Event: QC'14

QuakeCon® 2014 is set to be a great spectacle, with FACEIT providing live coverage and

ddk and

Zoot on the mic to provide commentary. But of course most of the show will come from the players!

The Intel® QUAKE LIVE Duel Masters Invitational will feature a stunning $20,000 in prizes and the player line-up is shaping up to be nothing but impressive. The first eight invited players are

DaHanG,

ZeRo4 and

Rapha, representing the United States, while from all the way from the South we have the

Doomsd4y, representing Argentina.

Europe will send a strong delegation this year as well, with the first names to be invited being

evil,

tox, as well as

strenx, who is coming out of retirement specially for QuakeCon, and recent FACEIT Spring Champion and DreamHack victor,

Cypher.

First 8 invited players

The line-up features several QuakeCon champions, with tox taking two duel titles, while ZeRo4, Cypher and rapha all have three duel trophies. This totals to eleven golden medals, excluding all of the team achievements!

Last year saw a European versus American final, in evil versus Rapha. In the end, the American bagged the win after a tense final. Who will take it all the way this year? Will the Europeans prove the strongest, or will the Americans defend their crown?
