The 6th edition of the ESWC. In order to attend to the final in California, all champions will have to qualify through ESWC national selections from January to June 2008.
its just map aim, angles and prediction shots hes made 1000s of times over and over again. Aim on other maps like ztn is harder[ unless you are russian and practice it as much as czm practices hub. (since he loves it)
yeah sux hard. don't understand forwhat player can't choose the map to play and not the map to veto... if it was bo1 ok but bo3 this system really suck.
well I find hub alot more enjoyable to watch than ztn. it's smaller sure, but it's more entertaining having a game with a lot of frags instead of a game with a handful, and the last 5min consists of the player in the lead running and hiding. now that's one annoying game :(
oh, and lol to the comment that czm is 'just above average'. czm is prioritizing school over a videogame, still he allways comes back with just a few weeks of practice. and he usually end up in the top 5, 6'th in this case. in coollers own words, czm is the greatest q3 player of all time. few, if any (maybe fox) has the broad experience from q3 (1v1,tdm,ctf). if the guy practiced as much and frequent as any of the other contenders, he would be unstoppable. exception here is jibo. seeing that interview he was asked how long he'd practiced before the event.... 'One week!' In his chineese/russian accent, I just laughed lol. impressive.
thats the proof that without hub czm wouldnt be as sucessfull the last years as he was
on other maps hes just overavarage but not top
but its the same with zero4 still i like zero4 style much much better than czm all aim style :)
C'mon guys. czm's dominance on hub is comparable to cooller's on dm6. czm just fucking rocks in an absolute way when he gets going, short-term-predicting with weapons. cooller dominates by locking down armor/health, making sure he has a weaker opponent whenever he meets him. If you appreciate that, then you should appreciate czm's style more!
czm also has these golden moments when nothing that can hold a mouse can beat him, like at 11:18 :)) after which I think Voo got frustrated / stressed / shrugged or something, and then at 12:41 again... :)
Hub is on the map list, give the guy credit where it's due.
While cooller does do this, it's not the key to why he's been so successful over the years.
ZeRo4 dominates by locking down armour/health but as soon as control is lost he's considerably weaker (The hard part is taking control from him). Having control of a map is only half the battle against cooller.
