ESR - QuakeCon 2014 - QL Tournaments

Well, hopefully Sync(I think it was him) will provide us with a massive bunch of demos to download, after it's all over.

At least, I sure hope so. There are definitely players beyond group D that I'd love to watch, even it means I already know that neither player in a specific demo didn't win the grand final.

---
Additionally, if I understood some previous posts correctly, a lot of the Euros will have to place 3rd just to break even(feel free to correct this if it is inaccurate). So, hopefully, that will just give them even more incentive to fight extra hard and make even more exciting matches for us lowly stream watchers to cheer for. :D

I just checked American duelists accounts using this tool:
http://www.qlranks.com/duel/compare/rapha/dahang

And it seems that rapha hasn't trained or even played DaHanG in months - more of that they only played 120 games total registered by QLRanks (that also may include LAN games).
And I had this thought cross my mind: could they have made an agreement, that they won't play each other in any practice so it'd be more interesting/exciting for them to meet in tournament matches? Considering they are the clear top2 of NA pretty much for the whole QL history so far.
On the other hand I have no idea why these two amazing players would deliberately deprive themselves of best practice partner they can have considering their territorial placement (strong personal dislike? nah...).

why not create two aliases and play from them, never raising your elo vs other players, as if they were two nebwie friends dueling, giving away no demos or details? Only downside is that you have to relog, which is an inconvenience.

It really wouldn't make sense not playing eachother considering the lack of talent in NA compared to europe.

I surely thought of that, but why have aliases only for that? Why, for example, DaHanG has around 1000 duels with dkt and he doesn't play on fake (well he still might :D)?

Really strange. It doesn't make sense at all, considering that apart from Dahang, there are only around 10 players above 2000 elo in NA, and that elo is inflated due to the low player pool.

Considering that maybe only the half of those are playable in a competitive ping range, Rapha and Dahang are left with something like 5 players to practice serious high level games.

Madness.

They could always be playing with aliases and/or cancelling the matches, but it's unlikely. You simply can't play like Rapha or Dahang in NA under an alias and not get busted in less than 1 second.

Maybe they simply got bad feelings between them. It wouldn't be surprising, considering Dahang is one of the biggest dickheads in the quake live scene (and this is saying something).

This has always been the case since NA ql began.
There's so much head game between them that they want a fresh slate without any "pre-momentum" when/if they meet.

They choose and sometimes share practice partners(dkt). They both train in such a way to hopefully peak at tournament time, which means you will see certain elements of their play improve and arc.
Playing each other while training would throw that trajectory off.

Sparing the "can't teach an old dog new tricks" cliché for a sec, dkt is an excellent training partner(as well as sparks, but NOT Z4 who himself is on a similar arc). You know what you're getting with dkt: he will punish your mistakes; push the pace; force you to make great shots -- consistently.

I hope to fuck that someone smart is in charge does not allow all the good games to be played at the same time, always have a good game and then tons of shit matches, and stream the good games consecutively.

Must stream:

Group A

Almost all the matches.

You could skip Cypher vs evil and rapha vs Dahang tho, been seen online too many times already. Only because these groups doesnt matter ofc, if its play offs those matches would be a must obviously.

Group B

Tox vs ZeRo4 old school $$$$$
Tox vs strenx
ZeRo4 vs strenx with strenx being out of shape and far from his level, z4 has high possibilities to destroy him in this match, would be very interesting imo
strenx vs dkt for the lolz

Group C

chance vs spart1e
chance vs dem0n
whaz vs dem0n whazzle dazzle!!!

stream spart1e vs dem0n would be a waste, is too generic, while u never get to see chance (top 4 NA) play europeans . I also hope chance rape those guys.

Group D

Not very interesting indeed. Only hope cha0ticz manage to rape all those guys and get 1st place.

Group F

Cl0ck vs griffin?

Not sure if watching a rusty l1nkin would be entertaining at all.

Group G

id_ vs c0d47? lol match

Group H

xD

I would like to spec apparition tho, but not against those guys...

The 4 top seeds are put in group A. They will play each other to dertermine seeds 1-4 for the single elimination bracket.

Then in the first round winner of group A will face 4th place of group H. A2 will face H3, A3 will face H2 and so on.

Groups are paired based on seeds. A with H, B with G, C with F etc. (Or should be, I might be wrong - haven't seen the bracket :))

This format makes sure the top seeds gets to play each other. This is what we, the spectators, want to see. Big name games. Evil vs rapha, cypher vs dahang..

And the lower seeds gets to play 3 groups games against equally skilled players before they get raped in SE..

EVERYONE advances to the SE bracket. Not just 1 and 2 in every group.

It's just pure win in my opinion.

Just give us a 2nd stream, Sync! :)

Why couldn't they make it more Europe timezone friendly.
If FIFA can do it for world cup, if F1 can do it, why cant you?
Especially since QL is dead everywhere except EU.

Why not split more games to second day so we can see more games on first day also?

From the group/seeding stages I'd like to see:

rapha vs

evil to let Evil warm up vs Rapha instead of choke in an elimination match.

dahang vs

cypher for some sick aim and weapon selections

strenx vs

dkt because

chance vs

dem0n should be a good match and get to see each players level on LAN

Good picks, would love to see

tox vs

strenx too just because, aside from being a fanboy, I think it could be a really good game.

I think tox is heavily understimated by many, i saw someone post that tox wont even reach top 16. He got consistently good results against top players, he raped fazz and spartie over and over won as much as he lost against ash, beat cypher several times, got 2nd at the oldschool cup got 2nd at the only(?) faceit he attended won all his games at dhw only lost to evil etc.. I dont think he will win qcon but i think he could get top3 if he has a good day, otherwise i think top 5.

well if they're going to stream it in an online cup fashion (jumping in the middle of the games) i'm passing on it till the playoffs. 3h till the MAIN (once a year...) event starts yet we still don't have complete schedule like when the certain game shall start wich one is going to be streamed with links provided etc.? this way we're going to see 3 worth watching matches... one of semis + final + one game from groupstage, meh.

i mean wtf is this shit:
Schedule
- Thursday, July 17th
17:45 CEST Group Play: Round 1
18:15 CEST Group Play: Round 2
18:45 CEST Group Play: Round 3
? 30 mins to stream one match? is this a joke? is this the full groupstage stream schedule? :D
then a mysterious break for launch wich lasts 1 hour? like they couldn't eat before the event... and they scheduled eating in the middle of it xD sick

well i actually expected someone who's paid for organizing this event to sit with a sheet of paper and a pen (it's not much right) and just write down the most exciting games to stream. this way players would know when to start their games, who they play at what time, they could prepare earlier and also the stream would be already set up and not on the fly... beside that i would know when to tune in and when are some nonames playing.:P taking into count like 10 min delays ofc considering it's computers and therefor there can be some issues...

big sports events (or even esports events now) have a full detailed schedule in like months before, not hours. i don't think i demand too much, right...

and also non of the casters or any staff in any pro event is scheduling their fucking launch break in the middle of it when thousands of ppl watch their work, lmao

that's what i expected... a schedule of the show.

basically:
What you'll get

3 Matches from group A.
Then you'll get a round1 nobody cares about
a round 2 on the lines of Chance vs Tox
a Strenx vs Rapha\Dahang
3 more group A matchups.

what will you miss:

3 group A matchups, probably Evil vs Cypher, DaHang vs Rapha and Cypher vs Rapha as those 3 are the most common combination we saw in the past.

6 group B matches with the likes of DKT vs Strenx, Tox vs Zero4, Tox vs DKT, Strenx vs Zero4 and a Strenx vs Tox rematch after Tox won him at dreamhack.

6 group C matches, with every single game being something you won't see anymore for a LOOONG time.

Some interesting matchups from the other groups.

more uniteresting round 1s,
some decent round 2s,
85% of round 3 awesomeness

The loser bracket matchups, as there is no loser braket.

All in all the policy to keep it lan therefore not giving access to random streamers on the only QL Lan left is a massive owngoal.

Do you really want to enjoy the event? stay as far away as possible from the PC for 4 days, download all the demos and hope they r as spoilerfree as it gets. Watch the matches you want to.

i srsly doubt you can fault the faceit crew for this coverage. If the games are happening at the same time and one after another it's not their fault.

I strongly agree that watching events live is MILES better tho, and it was a stretch to make the point a bit provocative. I will indeed watch all the games (but the finals, freaking work) live and will probably enjoy it 1000000 times more than the last world cup :D

seriously guys. people thinking that the schedule is a joke, that people don't have to eat or take any breaks, that setting up another stream will do itself, that 30 mins is lots of time wasted to play a bo3 can shove their unrealistic, uninformed, entitled bullshit and fuck off. was there ever a lan that broadcasted all of the matches? or provided fair coverage for both lower and top skilled players? how can 4-5 people run 2 streams at once with the attention that main stream requires and zero man power? and some of you won't even grant them a break to have lunch lol. I can see that reality is a foreign concept to some people. I'm sure it's reasonable to think that people will drain themselves with no food for your benefit and you're entitled to seeing every game on a secondary stream with 'casual commentary' lol. ridiculous. you fail to realise entirely how the events like that work, how much effort it takes to run them and how much effort people working them have to give to keep up and keep you entertained.

While you are right that it is unreasonable to broadcast all matches the schedule doesn't look optimal. Why not dedicate friday to the group games and maybe first round of playoffs and have the rest take place sunday? It would allow many more games to be shown and give players the chance to play the important duel games after having enough time to warmup and accustom themselves to the lan environment.

People want to be able to watch more than the unbelievably rushed schedule will allow, the disappointment is easy to understand. I doubt that a LAN has ever broadcasted every game, but I also doubt that a LAN has ever broadcasted less games than what we will see with this schedule.

dissapointment is easy to understand and I'd ike to see more as well, but the arguments and 'solutions' are unrealistic and naive. where they start leading to insults by half brains who can't grasp simple reality is where i have the problem, not with people 'dissapointed' by small number of matches. and even those people forget that the tournament's schedule is connected to the entire con schedule and accomodating 2 main and tons of smaller quake tournaments is not an easy fit for 3 days event.

if you ever watched any other tournaments apart from quake ones, you'd see that this setup is a joke, nobody said we want to see every single game on stream, but this is low, even by quakecon standards

exactly, you're right.
saying a lan never broadcasted every game they either mean quake lan or they're joking. if it's quake lan, then maybe it's about time to CHANGE IT and do it properly finally
also as i said i want the schedule not only to watch certain games but to avoid the ones i'm not interested in and be able to simply chose - just like you can chose in ANY sports event which games u wanna watch because of one, simple and magical thing wich says when exactly does certain game start called schedule.
it's not that i'm dissapointed every game won't be streamed - it's totally understandable as in the lineup there aren't 32 cyphers, but only one. the lack of schedule is dissapoiting tho.

stream 6+ group stages matches.
have lunch break during round 1\2 (which are easily sacrificable) or the doom thingy.
Add an extra day of matches like it was last year, even just squeezing in like 3 extra matches on stream is worh the effort.
Find a way to allow streamers from the internet, not allowed to stream the matches qcon picks for the main stream so effectively have twice as much coverage.
Stream half+ of the games from the quarterfinals and both semis and finals thanks to the extra day of streaming like it was last year.
Some interviews, chilled atmosphere, some prepared intros for players\maps like it was last year.
Stay in contact with the community, explaining what's going on and what are the motivations behind certain decisions.

now i'll probably get 30-40% of that: half or so of the matches i care of on the main stream, the interviews and production value, i'm sure the community and explaining will be soon after this pile of shit that's raining over them.

long rant

I'm spoiled by the standard set by other games. You know, those in twitch that don't have anywhere the budget quakecon has as an event nor hiring a whole overseas studio and casters for broadcasting, but that still manage to pull off a much better spectacle in every possible way.
Evo had like 5 streams at the same time, which was last week, while managing thousands of players and problems. How is it possible for such amateurs to do what you call an impossible?

Furthermore in this year there's no lack of resources at all. You see, the event is ran at a posh hotel, then they have a pro studio there (faceit) whose paid job is to "keep us entertained", they have flown in a bunch of people from overseas (thousands of dollars in that alone) and they have access to stupidly good internet connection and PCs. Also it doesn't take that much resources or is "unrealistic" to do basic stuff that's missing, like a schedule before hand with the actual matches that are going to be shown and breaks, or accommodating quake better at the stage.

We have seen good examples in the past of what can be done, even at quakecon. 2GD's year certainly had way lesser resources and still ran way better than any other year, almost to the standard set by other games. OMGScoots' year was flawless in the technical side of things (not all technical guys are good or as good as others) and faceit's year was quite nice in the first day out of three. If you haven't watched those events you should.

In the end Quakecon is the only event I have ever watched in which there's spinning logos for 6 hours and where the finals are cut (1 showmatch map of ctf, 4 maps of duel) because of bawls chugging and guitar hero stage time. Even though I'm only a spectator, to me and to many others that have been here for years, it's pretty clear the reason why the stream and competition manages to suck pretty much every single year is that id software does not care about their games' competitions, not because of lack of resources and funding. The main issue is not faceit or whoever is chosen for a specific year, but id software.

Finally, it may seem as me being too picky for something I don't pay for, but the way quakecon is ran is disrespectful for players and spectators, it's so bad it's hurt quake over the years and personally I was going to donate cash towards the small duel prize pool for the only lan remaining in quake, but didn't because of that. They are missing out big opportunities, which indirectly hurt "us", and you have to remember that in 2014 quakecon is the only time of the year where quake gets publicity.

And it's false that we haven't ever seen all matches. We did in the GTV days, which you missed, and that's a standard we got used to. It's quite a hit to go from 100% of matches shown across 6 LANs a year, to showing 15% across one LAN a year.

Personally I'd be content if they show most of the matches from players that we rarely see, such as doomsday, and the finals are ran in a respectful way, but they won't.

No offence but you've never covered an event like DreamHack or QuakeCon yourself, so what makes you more qualified than the other people in this thread to make such statements? To be brutally honest it's a bit of both and at the end of the day, the commentators are being paid to commentate, little to no breaks often comes with the job. I can also see why the schedule is how it is. Either way, it's not one extreme or the other as you suggest.

The players are the stars of the show, not DDK and Zoot, so as good of a job FACEIT may do, people will always want to see more of them.

no offence taken obviously, but statements like what? that people have to eat? do i need dreamhack qualifications to understand that? I didn't go into any technicalities that admittedly I have little to know information about or experience with, but I'd think that what i said stands to reason? my problem isn't critique, but I will stand by my opinion that people organising this stuff (that read this forum not some nameless bethesda execs) deserve more than smirks and bullshit over this tournament from people who know about this shit even less than I do. you know what's up and I can't see you posting fucking bullshit, because you can see both sides of the argument. as do I. also I don't know why you excluded players from people that I'm defending. they need brakes and light schedule as well. I'd even say more so. I don't give a fuck if zoot gets his burger but I'd very much like Rapha to have his in peace.

My point was that it doesn't matter what schedule is put in place, people will always want to see more of the players and hearing "but the commentators need a break" from you to justify as to why just three group games are shown is not exactly the best approach to counter argue. I did not mention players because if you had suggested breaks for the players as the reason (over the production team), you would have likely gotten a lesser response. Whatever the reason is, I'm sure there will be demos available from some of the missed matches following the group stage, perhaps even covered by FACEIT and DDK at a later date?

TLDR; I'm looking forward to whatever Quake I see. I'm really just saying you can't be disappointed at a community that just wants to see more Quake, it is what it is.

and that's not what I'm dissapointed by. as I said somewhere above: do I want to see more? fuck yeah I do! but do i understand why the schedule is constructed the way it is and know better than to call it a joke? also fuck yeah. being a part of prague lan coverage gave me enough of an idea of a shitstorm that quakecon has to be to be smarter than that.

I get that it's not easy running a tournament like quakecon but getting to see not more than 3 group games total when there are like 15 extremely awesome matchups is still heavily disappointing.

1 years since quake con strim.i walk through the empty streets trying to think of something else but my path always leads to the stream. i stare at the screen for hours and try to summon the dem0n. i watch other fps games streaming but it is no good. i flame agent in his channel and try to resist the nazi mods but it is all meaningless. the end is near.i then usually watch some old ddk vods and cry myself to sleep.

Expect hours of deathly silence and then Zoot will appear online to announce the results of spectacular matches and upsets that have happened so far. Talk a little bit about how awesome the event is and drop a few names on who he's bumped into etc, then cut to spinning logo for lunch break ;)

For players using XL2420Z at QCON.

- DO NOT enable BenQ Motion Blur reduction as that will increase input lag by small amount
- ensure "AMA" set to 'High' to reduce ghosting
- ensure "Instant Mode" is 'Enabled' to remove additional processing lag from display

Here are some initial thoughts on this QuakeCon.

I don't think Rapha has either the shape nor the desire that he's shown in the past. Leading up to this event, his practice has been spotty. He's had 3-4 days of no practice time in between his practice sessions. Of course it's possible that he's been aliasing or aborting, but there's no evidence to suggest that. And in at least the week leading up to QuakeCon, he's been having close games and losing to players that are worse than the players that Rapha usually beats easily. He continues to be weak on Cure, Sinister, and Aerowalk; that's 3 out of the 7 maps.

A month or so before this event, Cypher looked to be in great form, and Evil looked to be slipping, but that seems to have been reversed right before QuakeCon.

Strenx has gotten into decent shape, but he looks to be lacking in his Cure and Sinister game, which isn't surprising. I'm especially looking forward to his games...especially his matchup against dkt. dkt by the way is looking good going in. His lg is spot on, and he's shown a decisive edge over Chance in practice games, when usually Chance has an edge over him.

I'm looking forward to all the games either way!

alright, so it's really just a difference in priorities. But i'd argue that you can see chance v cl0ck and dkt v id_ playing high level quake online on QLRanksTV pretty often, whereas you'll only see ins v doomsd4y at a LAN, so that's the match to show.

I love Quake
and I love this tourney

but when are they gonna split the duel over 2 days again??

I came home - and I've watched two great games:
strenx vs tox
Dahang vs cypher

now its a break - and the group stages are over??!
c'mon

I really appreciate the coverage and the work zoot and DDK do -
but even during these breaks couldn't they run some of the games we've missed?

they need to stop over-lapping matches

I know they don't want the possibility of players throwing matches to avoid certain opponents - but we get ONE event a year..

at this rate the duel tourney will be (practically over) by the time we go to bed.

I realise they have CTF to play - but I'd like to see more of these matches please and maybe less promotional stage antics on the Saturday?

otherwise - great job

stream as much quarters as possible, they all gonna be exciting as hell. can anyone at least try to schedule them so they're played one after another?

we can reschedule the semis to be played both after doom break then we'd have more time to stream those quarters wich are all gonna be great matchups.

They said they would "break" games and try to cover everything.
Do we really need 5 full length games of same opponents when so many other games are played?
What happens to switching between games, talk about possible upcoming possible games, strengths of players some statistics etc etc.

Its hard i feel it but you just cant send 5 games of same players when schedule and time is so tight!!..

Dahang was a surprise vs Cypher, instead of sending cheesy music in breaks, make a quick 2-3min interview, are cameras in 2014 still not mobile?

Also such a fucking 1337 move by zero4 on dm6:
delays the yellow for FIFTEEN seconds, to make it spawn 3 secs after next mega, shows up at mega with 100-100, does an insane amount of damage, spawns at ya, has now the stack to take red and close chance out of the map.
SO WELL PLAYED

If you're not going to stagger games, you need multiple streams and casters. At least from QF's onwards. At least.

It's as simple as that.

Anything else is an organisational/scheduling (epic) fail. The event of the year and we see a tiny percentage of it.

The first mega respawn on t7 that rapha left was so dumb. He just had to take it and he would have won the fight and gained control, instead he ran away when Tox wasn't even in sight. Dumb choice imposed by raw FEAR.

I tought Rapha's nerves were tougher. But it has to be said, this Tox is SCARY. He hits the litteral IMPOSSIBLE.

For sure, no doubt. It's just that's surprising to see the player with arguably the best or one of the best mindset to lose completely his mind.

In that t7, that he could have EASILY won, he did <1200 elo mistakes. Absurd things. He didn't lost because of Tox's aim, he let Tox win.

nope, tox's aim drove rapha insane. He crushed every smart play rapha was trying to setup, so rapha started doing dumb plays, trying to catch tox off, and even that failed.

he made those mistakes precisely because of toxics aim. in the first few games there was situations when rapha had stack, position and even weapon advantage and toxic still killed him, it happened so many times (rapha was missing some too which made it worse)

creating that element of doubt is the most dangerous thing in quake, and tox was attacking randomly all over the place hitting unusual amounts, it would put anyone off.

I'm not saying i totally disagree with you, i expected rapha to be a bit more composed in the last map too but saying he let tox win is taking credit away from tox imo!

It's sad there is no counter play for LG bots in this game though. It's not that it's straight up imba, but there is no counter play to it. You can't +back it, you can't rush on it, you can't do shit and you're just helpless vs such aimers.

I'm kind of happy for tox to win actually, but it really felt like he literally did it in a "all aim" fashion.

hitting like a truck full of trucks)))))

Tox, fucking machine. Was really impressed to see rapha being so helpless.

How many times had tox walked on the stairs while in mutual lg fight and still win? This all looked too me almost disrespectful. Also rapha was nervous about it and couldn't land MANY easy shots, mixing up weapon switches etc. That wasn't rapha who we all know, but maybe due to tox just destroying him.

At fitst i felt bad for rapha, but he really made a lot of mistakes. He got caught off guard just too many times. And dont think tox just outaimed rapha, he was much more cautious when moving around and always facing the right direction to get that inital damage advantage... what happened here is what happens every time a new solid player starts playing the top players, you just need some time to learn and adapt. Was the same when dahang showed up in ql or evil.. couple more games to get a costumed to and rapha would have tox in check

because of this, tox can win it all this time, other players just arent used to him

"New player" tox played quake since 96-97 or something like that. And that goes both way, rapha is as new for tox as tox is for rapha. Usually "new" players have problem with rapha and not the other way around. Rapha dominated early quake life it took a very long time for the other guys to start challenge him.

Rapha needs to have a gameplan ready to deal with people. He already had 1 for tox, which is mainly 'He is +back with sick fucking aim and is bad at timing items'

This tox was completely different.

Great stream so far faceit & friends, even with the typically tight schedule of Quakecon I'm really pleased with the games you have chosen to show tonight.

Entertaining games, great commentary from zoot and ddk, breaks long enough to smoke and a resupply snacks, but not so long that you want to kill somebody from qltv. I'm really routing for tox now, It still feels unlikely that he could actually win, but he's the underdog from this point on.

We will never know, so many players so few interviews, you could do gold and stream all not streamed games on friday/saturday and make something better then this regular streaming/commenting of a tournament.

To be honest I am quite surprised how people jump to conclusions about cypher's performances throughout the year. I think it's pretty normal for him to let it go a bit when it's not so important, but pull it all back together for when it counts. He did this so many times already, it's really to be expected.

he would be consistantly bad if it were due to poor conditions, which he isnt. he sucks whenever hes not practicing for something, he has been since years back, and hes been playing good in the same conditions that he has played poorly with. he might not be playing his best at home, and that might be due to conditions, but there are times when he loses to randoms joining his pubs. if he were always performing poorly at home i would agree with you, but thats hardly the case. i dont watch a lot of quake online, but im pretty sure that cypher starts winning stuff the weeks leading up to an offline events.

im sure ive seen him say that he always could win if he wanted to. i think it was back in zotac vs strenx

I'm not Cypher's fan but I think he is the best Quake player ever. From all Quakes.

But I also believe they are 50\50 with evil right now, and it's just sad that we can't see them play more. 3-0 blowout and possibly at least year without LAN match.

Let's say Cypher wins GF 3-0 too. Yes, Cypher is the best, but that will mean that we didn't see real fight for a trophy, close matches, triple overtimes. Just think of Cypher-Cooller at QuakeCon 2010.

i'm curious how evil would have done if his (epic) winstreak-shape came 2 months later. seemed invincible, was he rlly on better shape and confidence lvl? or was it just cypher and others being further from their peak?

also, not to be downgrading toxs game, but this definitely wasn t rapphas a - game. not just talking of the mindgame, but also his aim was rlly off.

yeah, not a fanboy of evil, but it still seems that cypher is a far better sportsman than evil, because of how he could set up his training before the lan, change his mind-set and prepare to fight at the very peak of his, rather unhuman, capabilities, concentrate during the pressure and perform when needs to perform.

miles better as a sportsman, but is cypher definetly, undoubtebly, better as a player than evil?

I like both of these players, but Cypher has won a lot of great LAN tournaments, and it's no miracle he was able to beat evil this time, especially with the recent victories he had online (3 finals victories, 1 loss against evil).

Still, I hope evil continues to play and partake in huge events, because he's a good competitor and excellent player that might win something again. Also, it's good he carries on the russian flag at QCON considering how many good russian duellers that might have done good there but who can't play.

I don't it's the reason too, actually. I was just discussing preparation possibilities.
I think the reason evil lost is that he made too many mistakes and Cypher masterfully took advantage of it.

I also think this part was maybe overrated. I mean, I am a noob so I might not be fully aware of how hard it is, but the mega area in dm13 is very small so it's no wonder tox was able to hit a lot.

The LG beginning when rapha rushed to MH was awesome though. All in all it was impressive because the LG buzzed like crazy but I'm not sure that's the best LG moment of tox in the series.

I think Av3k did an awesome PG frag at the very same spot once.

Who said Evil had a bad day......AHAHAHAHAHAHa. He was PWNING Cypher all year and Cypher was in better shape after that DH than ever. He hadnt had a bad day all year on Faceit and now at Quakecon when motivations are extreme for somebody that never won it you say he had a bad f..... day....amusing. He cant beat Cypher in normal enviroments and never will. Can somebody post the accuracies from T7 where he ussualy hits 50% lg and is a rushing MH and RA all year and is a confident monster. Shame u quake lovers cant see the obvious. Quake online is full of small and big cheaters !!!!!!

Wonder how integrated it'll be. Will they revamp their achievements or fix the broken ones? (as most games on steam have achievements, not that I care about the ones they have now).

And will you be able to see players on server?, or will it just be like attaching a 3rd party game to steam to show you friends. Like adding notepad.exe

I spammed this in twitch chat earlier but:

Rapha lost because of Dr. Dre headphones (footsteps are filtered and replaced by snare drums

Evil lost because he's a 1 LAN wonder and his opponents weren't preoccupied by shootmania

Cypher will be first 4-time Quakecon champion on Saturday.

I would be very surprised if Tox takes it after all these delays. It's almost 3 at night Swedish time and they haven't started the game yet. DaHanG is a lot more used to playing at this hour =/

There's never any respect for the players, ridiculous. Why couldn't they have played the 2nd semi close to the 1st?

During the last DreamHack, the first games were played at 9 GMT on day 2 and 3. Looking back at other events, 11 GMT seems a bit more common. But let's see what it looks like in the worst case scenario.
I'd estimate that players wake up at least two hours before the first games start to have enough time to eat, shower, move to the event and warm-up enough. That means 7 GMT in our worst-case scenario. What is 7 GMT in North America's main timezones?
New York : 2:00
Dallas : 1:00
Denver : 0:00
Los Angeles : 23:00

So basically there's a break between 18:00 and 19:00. We were told it's for the Doom reveal but that started at 19:00.

So it's already 90 minutes of shit music and not even a spinning logo. At an event where people get paid to run the stream and yet we've missed ton of worthy games (and presumably demos are there). There's been a total of 0 interviews, 0 movies played, 0 guest caster appearances. 6000 people having stream open and wondering what for.

It's 2:30 here.

Maybe because when he raped rapha it was still a good hour in Europe 11-12 pm. You can't say that for the quality of his performance against rapha, tox played at his fullest. His rail was off (reaction time). I knew Dahang would've win but i expected to watch a better Bo5 with at least 4 games and close scores.

BS Tox was raping Rapha with superior aim and strategy.

He would have done the same to DaHanG, but try playing yourself with several hours delay when you're badly jetlagged at 3 in the morning, while DaHanG was perfectly adjusted to it.

Tbh my aim suffers a lot when it's late... same as decision making, focus, reaction time to situations. All in: I play a lot worse and I am sure that counts for every human being. For me tox missed really funny easy rail shots that are easy for any player not to mention aim machine. I am sure tho this was the most obvious part for us, that his game suffered on many levels not only rail.

lol. Tox could find out the schedule of games in like what, 2 weeks or more before the event? And start going to sleep later or smth? And delay was only around 40 minutes, which is pretty much nothing critical.

DaHanG. Can he take the almighty Cypher down? QCon 2012 rematch it is: it ended 3-2 in favor of Cypher, with him losing first two - ztn and tox, and winning aero, t7 and final dm13.

i really wanted tox to make it to the grand finals this year, i just think 10 minute games and inability to control weapons like in q4 just doesn't suit his playstyle and allows him to be that much aggressive as he used to be, cause his +back game is not that good, and everyone knows that ql favours +back playstyle, even more so on lan.

both evils and tox' rails were way off in the semis, and that cost them, if not win, then few map wins at least.

ggs

let's just hope grand finals and bronze finals don't finish like the semis

P.S. Brian, whatta BOSS! xD

pressure .... this is toxic.
he spent more time playing tournaments than i did playing quake altogether.
dont you see its rather likely he was tired as fuck due to jetlag?
i know people who needed a whole week to adjust to that 7-8 hour time difference.
and the tricky part about jetlag is that you dont get a bit tired over a long time ... you rather almost fall asleep from one hour to another.

i don't know shit about QL but weren't people constantly criticizing tox for his non-aggressive style in his previous tournament appearances? (I recall even Stermy saying that tox needs to be more confident in taking fights with his amazing aim)

His +back game was fine and he was more aggressive at the right times. IMO, if anything cost him, it's the timing and general item play

Was really pulling for tox especially after that complete domination of rapha. He looked really on his game today all round. The 2 hour delay really killed his momentum in that semi finals game against dahang. He was up early all the maps and could've very easily won. dahang is in beast mode and already taken a game from cypher it's his tournament to lose now.

So I've followed two quakecons now (relative QL noob) and each time its unbelievable how hard it is to get results and post match information. I'm not blaming syncerror or anyone I think they are fantastic volunteers but .... Shouldnt there be central site where all the demos are kept or something ? I had to go to work and I was too tired before work to watch any stream so I've totally missed out. I guess that $50 I donated to strenx will be paid back by watching some youtube demo of him in two months time.

and btw is there gonna be any speech from carmack this year prerecorded or otherwise?

I don't like this. Top players and casting should be seperate entities.

It diminshes the tension and rivalry if eliminated top players are just casting the next moment, like it was no big deal.

Rapha is a good caster, don't get me wrong, but I don't think it feels right to get him casting a Grand Final he could have been in.

Not really a valid point in my opinion. Pretty much all of the players in that tournament are mature enough to be unbiased. Players have casted tournaments they've been knocked out of before, with really good results, e.g. IEMV grand final with CZM casting with Joe.

not saying 'the american' every other sentence =/= removing nationality. it's a basic rule in english that you don't repeat yourself. i'm not going to forget toxic is swedish or evil is russian in the ten seconds between zoot reminding me. it's annoying.

good commentary is also about not repeating yourself too much, since that gets annoying.

so you can't say tox this, tox that, tox, tox, tox, all game, because it gets boring to listen to.

therefore, a good caster will say tox, toxic, the swede etc

yeah, i agree. i think he could do a slightly better job about alternating between them, though. he wasn't overusing any words at the beginning of the cast yesterday but as the day went on he continually got more and more repetitive. you don't really need to justify your opinion any further btw, i admit my caring about this kind of thing is stupid.

nationality rival sells (or gender wars). common people want that. its about politics & mentalities.

i could say something about the artifical concept of national countries in the eu starting from 1900 but nobody is interested in it :)

1. You get to see mainly british and us commentators as they are native speakers.
2. us commentators do exactly the same for a good reason.
3. Representing your country rather than yourself makes you look and feel more noble, important responsible. As an american you should know this. You have very strong tradition of taking pride in your national sport results coming back from cold war.

1. i said british for a reason. i can't recall ever hearing an american caster use a demonym as a pronoun. they will always say something like 'x is an american player' or something like that.
2. this is my fault for the wording of my original post. what i should have written is 'why do british people overuse demonyms as pronouns?'
3. i agree with that, makes sense. i wouldn't be considered very american by other americans in that i don't take much pride in my country nor do i care for traditional sports (american football, mainly. my uncle jokingly asks me if i'm gay every time it comes up) so that should explain why it didn't cross my mind. what a person does is much more important to me than who a person is, which is why toxic is my favorite and not rapha, dahang, etc. dat aim.

I can only speculate but my guess is that it's the matter of different language and culture. What you call "overuse" may sound perfectly fine for a British.

note for myself next year: don't assume that quakecon will be in august because you don't look close enough at the relatively early announcement

other than that, they played the whole tourney barring final in one day? on a thursday?

what's that, like 14 hours with 7 games for each of the finalists?

the participants must be exhausted

Just wait for the GRAND FINALS! Where we'll get to watch DaHang and Cypher sit on stage for 4 hours, watching speeches, dancing, mini-games and give-aways!

Really, you two crazy kids will get to play your silly game soon enough. Just be patient! Also, don't move, because we don't want to have to waste our time finding you after we're done up here!

I fell so sorry for TOX .... he is always in lead at start of the map ,first 3-4 minutes ,then he goes in some kind of safe zone and makes a mistake by giving his opponent to much space when he shouldnt. He has the best aim and never goes rape mode :-(

Actually, Toxic lost his game to dahang for 3 reasons:

1.) His aim wasn't nearly as strong vs Dahang as it was vs Rapha, whom plays a smarter game than Dahang.
2.) He gave Dahang way too much breathing room to collect major items. Instead of going the Cooller route of just running the items and letting kills come to you, he gets a 200-200 stack, then spends minutes searching for Dahang, leaving red and mega to be stolen with no damage to Dahang.
3.) Dahang played somewhat unpredictable to what Toxic is used to, hence why Dahang could surprise toxic so much by sitting in a corner e.g. Silence teleport.

Don't assume Toxic isn't "top 3" material. The guy was untouchable in quake 4, and in its prime the scene was immaculate. His aim was untouchable, and he ran items. In quake 3 he also gave players a run, but it just wasn't his time to shine with Cooller beating him out often. Toxic is by far one of the best players there is, but he, just like any other human, gets flustered and makes mistakes. His mistakes unfortunately costed him 1st or 2nd place, but he has a chance in the Bronze finale.

Rapha was playing his usual game. But Tox entered Toxinator mode. He was hitting everything and basically outplayed Rapha. He would have done the same to DaHanG if that game had been played at a decent time.

He made crucial "beginner" mistakes vs DaHanG that cost him the game. Not switching to LG on Sinister, overcommiting by MH in Toxicity

what the fuck do you know about playing duel at this level?
who are you to act like it is a matter fact that tox is a worse player than rapha is?
as tox himself mentioned in the interview he was trying to step up his game, he had a "concept" behind his game.
and this was also what we have seen against rapha.
as a lot of people already mentioned here we saw an aim-heavy tox with brain this time who was unbeatable by rapha.

with the stupid inconsiderately shit you are posting all the time you downgrade tox's play as well as himself as the great player that he is.
he played great against rapha and was 100% confident which sometimes is enough to make even players like rapha stumble.

and even you as the fucking expert you are knowing what will happen (as you said before rapha will win 3-0 against tox, which was not even close the case) no one will ever know what would have happended if tox and dahang were both "fresh minded" and rested .. in 100% of their powers.
so please just shut up.

Agree he did do many stupid things vs rapha, his timing for example was really bad. However that makes him more scary, if he were to fix that he could be top3 for sure, perhaps even top1.

It's naive to think he is anywhere near the same level he was at during q4 when he had at least as good aim but with excellent timing. He was a full time pro-gamer back then, competing in over a dozen major tournies in a year, it's just a completely different mindset and focus than playing loads of non-competitive online games against random scrubs even if it is for multiple hours a day, every day.

I wonder why they let the semi with 2 euros that should have similar jetlagg (cypher and evil) play earlier, and make tox dahang very late, doenst seems right.

Tox was hitting much more lg and rail vs rapha, vs dahang hes aim seemed off, sad cause it would have been awesome to see a legend like him in the final.

How about: http://www.twitch.tv/QuakeCon/profile/pastBroadcasts ?
11 hour VOD of day one.

(Unless it needs to be on YT for some reason. I've never had any problems with Twitch VODs.)

Intro

Duel bronze final 18:30 BST then the grand final at 04:00 BST.

Is this correct? because its 1:42am here in australia at the moment
and going by the Schedule the bronze match will start at 3:30am and then the grand final will start at 1pm.

I hope rapha refocuses and comes back next year stronger than ever... Shame to see him go out, but great to see tox play like he did against him even if rapha did seem a little off, just like tox did against buzz lightyear, but anyway I think we have the 2 best in form players in the final so finals should be great. I just can't help thinking what the QL scene would be like if tox started taking it really seriously again - his aim! Never seen anything like it, if he could up his in game decision making and tactics he would be unstoppable.

Anyway, now I'm looking forward to the EU teams taking home the ctf prize monies :DDD

Sure don't want to lash out at strenx here, who certainly has his own virtues. But did anyone tune into his 9 hour stream the other day? Which started out with him telling viewers that he wanted to show them how hard he practiced in appreciation of the donations? So he played a couple of games. Then listlessly watched some demos, during which he already grabbed his keyboard to fiddle around with. And then it went on for hours and hours, answering questions on facebook, writing emails, abusing his keyboard, playing various songs from youtube, finally all kinds of bizarre antics. And I thought: dude.

Now compare that to tox. I reckon that his donators - very probably - already got considerably more than they might have hoped for.

Strenx practiced A LOT and tbh in really short time catched up with the quake scene. Sadly he just need more time to step up even further as he didn't play for a really long time. Also you are right that he streams, chat, talks with the viewers. He is one od the "giving" pros for sure.

Zenimax pays the employees. While the skunks waste their money in retarded rocket experiments and cruise around with their yachts. And in the meantime, a Russian steps in to sponsor ad and commercial free cups all around the year, for the sheer love of the game.

Awesome interview. Tox was feeling very comfortable and he is able to tell his story very clearly. I'm really hoping he will participate more in the online cups aswell now he is finally getting " in the zone " in Quake Live.

Interesting to hear the reason why he grasps back on his defensive game because he does not trust his aim being consistent.

A huge plus for me is that he is not bored of Quake yet, and he want to show people some more Toxinator-action. I'm very pleased with that, TOX will not retire very soon. :)

One of those 2 ctf streamers mic distorts like fuck even with windows set super low and the twitch volume super low. I don't know his name. I wasn't watching when they said who is streaming.

Is the production even hearing what they're streaming? It's like

'we're talking normal level OH MAN THEYVE GOT THE FLA-SHHHHHHHHHK KTEKANEKAKE KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK SHAERHEAREAKRLAEAER....'

'Yes, I agree, other caster.'

edit: and the other caster is fine along with game volume.

in ctf this would most likely be the defender who is more boring to watch then attackers imo ...but yeah spec ui in teammodes sucks

a new spectating system would add so much more fun to watching team modes... like for example add a small map overlay where you can see the positions of players .. have small health/armor bars of every player... show enemies through walls if they are close... give specs the ability to assign players certain roles so you can switch more easily (atleast for ctf games, def,mid,att etc..)

and maybe change servers so theres a certain number of players who can queue for the game on top of an infinite number of specs?

Sync plz :P

edit: didnt see your reply, SwarmDMX

I like the idea of being able to see players through walls when spectating but it should be both enemies and team mates, so you can see the skirmishes going on around as you spec whichever player you're following. Streamers covering ctf regularly should already have binds for following the attackers and other key players which they should set up at the beginning of each match (and change if there is a swap of position etc). But you need to know a lot about the players and teams to be able to do it properly. I know greased scotsman used to do that a few years back so he could follow the most exciting players, with only follow powerup and follow flag carrier on and follow killer OFF.

How about multiple camera povs and third person view? Or first person view half screen with third person camera?

So when someone dies, the first person view switches like normal but the third person view just hovers and follows the new person that fragged the other guy.

So if there was a long range rail, the third person camera would 'zoom' over to that person, so people spectating would know who fragged that guy and where that shot came from.

There's got to be a better way to spec this shit.

Players selfkill with pus instead of dropping them because pus tick down when dropped through a bind since a couple updates ago. Not because they don't have the bind...

Here's a breakdown on the seconds of Tox's third frag on Rapha on dm13:

5:47 Rapha is on 295 combined stack after just grabbing the red armor, tox is on 230 combined stack. They are both in position for the next megahealth.

5:48 Tox hits a rocket putting Rapha down to 231 combined stack vs his own 229.

5:49 Tox and Rapha fire one more rocket each but both miss entirely. Tox jumps into the megahealth room while both players switch to lightning gun. Rapha has 230 combined; Tox has 228.

5:50 Rapha has been lg'd down to 149 combined stack while Tox still sits on 213. Rapha jumps into the megahealth box.

5:51 Rapha has 26 combined stack while Tox has 149. Still LG on LG. Rapha grabs the megahealth.

5:52 by the beginning of this second Rapha is dead despite grabbing the megahealth. Tox survives the fight with 106 combined stack.

Rapha does 119 damage in this fight. Tox does 390.

Yeah it's kind of funny how people keep pretending to themselves that there was anything substantial left to achieve. Particularly since it's been a while now that everybody's been practicing on a very tight cost/benefit schedule. Where they may have put in a little more effort in low income areas. The qcon prize pool might still be moderately interesting for some, but everybody's obviously trying to minimize their effort. Tox just said it in the interview above.

Of course, there's presumably still some fun left in playing quake and compete. But at this point we're rather talking about pure amateur level, by the definition of it. Which is great, but hey - you don't need to cross half of the globe on your own money for that, do you.

Best duel players + practiced CTF >>>beats>>> practiced CTF.
In other words: Rapha, Zero4 & Dahang made the difference.
Demon & Spartie, with all due respect, are a tier below these guys.
(Strenx & Cypher didn't practice CTF and only entered the competition as a joke.)

I dont think the result would be much different with any combination of players right now.

I am basing my opinion on how much these na players practiced and know each other vs anything can come up with right now.

I am just glad to see tp trumping over aim in this tourney, although the na players do hit good acc imo

was gonna say, the american top teams are doing fine aimwise. its more that they have an edge in teamplay and simply rally to a point (say to retrieve a flag) in a more rapid fashion than ive seen any euro team this tourney. i also got the feeling that the americans know these 'new' maps a little bit better, i might be wrong tho. regardless, its great to watch some high level ctf :> may the best team win

And Toxjq confirms exactly what I said. The delay between quarter and semi was way too long, he was jetlagged. He would easily have stomped DaHanG, since Rapha is better than DaHanG.

ID again disappointing with their incompetence of running a tournament. It's not like I'm surprised anymore though.

Qcon is a marketing event which the tournaments are an integral part of. In case of any clashes there's no doubt where the priorities lie.

That said, this 90mins "doom reveal" break right before the last game of a day packed with them must be one of the most appalling things I've ever witnessed in the quake tournament context. What's almost more saddening though is how lackadaisical and unopinionated everybody seems to be about this affront.

Agreed, i dont consider myself a cogomaster but from the people i know i got the best grow so they called me that, one of them had planted for many years and couldnt believe the size of my plants. Luck was on my side. For example it was a really rainy summer here, most outside growers got root rot, but the base soil i bought was really really airy, and water just went trough it like nothing. Ofc I couldnt knew in advance that it was going to be such a rainy summer, thats why i call it lucky. The hard part was that on non rainy, hot days i had to water it a lot cause moisture was gonne fast. The hardest part was coping with red spiders, god theyre such bitches. From the 6 females i selected when they showed sex, only one got hermi and it was in advanced stage, a sativa that was already 3mt tall, will never forget the face of my wife when i grabbed a big knife and cut it, the other 5 i took them till finish.

You should have taken a picture. Of both I mean, the face of your wife and the 3mt sativa.

In these parts, most people grow indoors, which costs a lot of electricity of course, but has the benefit of giving more predictable results And even there, spiders and alikes are causing considerable troubles.

Outdoors, even greenhouse, grows are often harsh upon consumption, presumably due to the lack of sun and water or lack of regularity thereof. A friend of mine engages in these kinds of studies, sporting 2+mt plants towards the end of summer, but I'm still waiting for him to come up with entirely pleasing results.

Another acquaintance has been engaging in indoor work for many, many years, while focusing on organic and pesticide free grows based on quality seeds. His results are the best I've ever seen in the non-commercial arena, but he still wouldn't want to consider himself a true cogomaster.

In particular, if you can grow in the open field and get satisfactory results you might want to consider yourself lucky. That's what many people are dreaming of around here.

Harsh smoke is normally due to overfertilization that gets stuck in the buds, lack of flushing in the last week before harvest, or bad drying/curing (ie fast drying leaves chlorophyll stuck in the bud that wont go even with a long curing, chlorophyll is harsh as fuck). You have to get it right in all these aspects to get a smooth smoke. Less sun means less bud and less trichomes, but has nothing to do with the harsh level of the smoke, same for water.

Good points. Possible haste in both, harvesting and drying resp. curing, are what my friend already said he might be guilty of and suffering from, in the greenhouse context which he's experimenting with. Primarily due to contractual obligations he has to take care of in his day-to-day business, that's at least what he told me when I visited him last autumn. I should be seeing him fairly soon again though, and it'll be interesting to see if things have improved in the meantime, and how much a possible improvement might be attributed to those points you just highlighted. Because other than that, everything else he does, regarding seeds and treatment of his plants, seems to be looking fairly sound.

I wouldn't know, I dont experience micro spices, but I'm sure youre right.

I just get frustrated when ppl like zoot shit all over rj scripts when they themselves has this combo (jumping and shooting on m1&m2).

i don't use rj script, but for ctf i have put +moveup on mouse2 in addition to my normal spacebar because it is almost impossible to faill to make a perfect rocketjump. I personally think it is silly to ban rj-scripts when an arbitrary choice of where to put +moveup, made several years ago in most cases, has such a big impact.

-using mouse 1 to shoo is what 99.999% of the people use
-using mouse 2 as jump is what 99% of people use

1key +attack...+moveup....
doesn't equal
2key +attack, +moveup

For tournament setting it should really be 1 command per key(with fov, sensitivity and crosshair as the exceptions). I could even live with strictly 1 command per key. But you have to draw the line somewhere or else you'll get weird rules and silly scripts getting around arbitrary rules.

Also how is m2 not standard/default for jump now. May as well tell new players this opposed to confusing them down the road when they hear other people use m2 as jump.

hmm, about the first part:

bind o "vstr _MG; vstr dz; cg_fov 100;cg_hitbeep 2; r_lodbias -2; r_textureMode gl_linear_mipmap_linear; cg_drawgun 0; cg_drawcrosshair 21; cg_crosshairsize 24; cg_gunY 3; cg_gunx 10; cg_gunZ -6; cg_zoomfov 75"

i change quit alot of things whith one keystroke - should this not be allowed?

m2 can be considered standard for +moveup, so can spacebar. Those who learnt using mouse2 for +moveup can execute a perfect rocketjump much easier than those who use spacebar combined with mouse1. In fact it is so much easier that i have bound mouse2 to jump.

I'm not the one to ask :)

seems fine to me, as this seems like a 1 time thing per map or w,e. If you were using different versions of this and swapping between them very frequently (with weapons and movement keys) then I would be concerned you were trying to accomplish something else.

If I was syncerror I would be concerned with long/strange binds using many commands or many of the same command that were executed frequently or dealt with actual performance eg. movement and shooting. All of what you have falls under visual/cosmetic and isn't spamming anything like +attack-attack multiple times.

There is still luck in the form of randomness though. Even if you program a bot to do the same recoil pattern the bullets aren't gonna be in the same spot, merely concentrated around that spot.

Yeah some luck involved in shooting weapons I guess. But could also say in QL the luck is your *opponent* dodging or moving to where you are shooting or have shot (mainly in regards to RL, but does apply to all other weapons) :> Give a pro player the same micro situation over and over and they won't have the exact same timings for key presses(unless they use scripts) and same micro decisions eg. turning the corner at 4:44 or 4:47. Both games require mouse muscle memory and fast reaction time, which is transferable between fps's and other genre's(to a lessor degree). :)

All game's have the luck factor and if the game is deemed competitive it also requires high level of skill. So comparing skill vs skill seems odd to me. Like saying all soccer ball players suck cause they can't run as fast as Usain Bolt.

toxic would have no trouble getting into the higher ranks in CS faster. He would still need to learn a lot of random things though.

What you are describing has no luck or randomness to it, it's all under the player's control, luck and randomness in quake come in the form of spawns.

"The Duel Masters this year will feature a slightly different format than usually. The 32 players are divided over eight groups. But instead like the normal format, the top players are in one group, and will fight for the top four seeds, and so on, giving interesting matches straight from the bat. All players move on from the groups, which are to determine seeds, to the Double Elimination bracket"

leave the hud for the stuff that matters

i can sketch it really easily

Evil with that nudge/fps/rate hack. He completly outshafted him while Tox was way more stack than him at the red on sinister. You can see it a the end with the accuracies 27 for tox 40 for Evil. It seems like tox has no idea about how changing your fps, nudge or rate can affect your aim.

Anyone feeling like Evil is doing something with his maxpacket, fps or timenduge ? Tox has a hard time lging him. that fight on dm6 when tox was stacked at mega and evil just spawned near lg was weird. H completly outlged him and tox wasnt able to kill him 125 vs 230. I have this impression of Evil everytime he plays online. That's why his +fwd vs his so good he can just micro warp trough a lot of lg.

I'd disagree... they both did fun things trying to win.
Casters were just insanely negative about all decisions that didn't work out perfectly... and even negative about certain things that did.

They can't seem to understand that some players just play different than they would do themselves.

You maybe do agree though that the way tox gave away his beautifully won control on dm6 was kind of miserable, and that he totally failed in planning for and setting up a comeback?

I'd have to rewatch exactly why tox lost his control overall but when he died he tried to put on imediate pressure onto evil... somewhat due to his spawn which in general in DM6 is one of the 2 valid ways to go.
That evil's dmg output was high enough to secure him a way to the mega AND tox didn't spawn nearer to the LG kinda meant that it backfired.... but that doesn't mean the decision itself was bad.

On dm6, tox died because he tried to pull the same stunt twice - attacking evil at mh from rl platform, which worked so nicely the first time - except evil was prepared the second time, because by then it's been a predictable move. And tox promptly dropped into his lg. Pure nervousness, and there's been a lot of that.

like I said I'd have to rewatch that.
I would doubt that it was as big a mistake as you make it out to be.

Besides (the 2nd time) tox was bound to have significantly more armor than evil so dropping down can be a more valid option anyway. But again I'm not 100% sure... the stream somewhat lagged at times for me... that was one of those times hehe :(

this is why I mute streams. QL.TV made me hate casters since they knew nothing of competitive play. "WHY ISN'T HE GOING FOR MEGA HEALTH" when he's 20hp and out of position.

the problem exists in other games too. you can watch amateur LoL being played, casters are chill, but if it's a pro match, suddenly the same skillshot deserves 100x more volume and excitement. the same move executed from a lesser player isn't casted the same compared to a pro player.

I know DDK and others are a decent level, but I guess it's just exhausting listening to someone fill time, critique a better player, and scrutinize smart decisions

well hmmmm.... I also watched the "strenx vs tox" game... casted by the same ppl....
And they were ultra positive about everything... because tox' moves paid off several times...

But here evil has to make other 'non normal decisions' to counter tox..... and it works... yet suddenly everything is a mistake.

And the reason for that is that they would make other decisions...... The game between evil and tox was really really high level...... but it was casted like a first round zotac :(

Too many timing errors from both players still. Evil played the same vs Cypher and got punished badly. I used to see his control much harder to break, on this QuakeCon he just continued to give it away. Anyways GG Evil and I'm sure you will return stronger the next time!

Tox play reminded me of Brazil vs Germany, and Evils play was Brazil vs Netherlands. Both players were tense and in their head, not being in the moment and playing their best.

So much about Quake is just your mental state isn't it. pretty sickening when you think about it.

A lot more focus in competitive Quake should be about how you reach the right mental state. Maybe not masturbate for a week or something, try something new like to get that killer instinct. Just playing hours of games clearly isn't helping performance.

there is a saying "you will be able to do, what your opponent will let you"
seems Evil could recover faster from that numerous weird situations and to control oneself after shit happens.
for example: that first frag tox made on dm6 when evil was in total control from the begining,.. it could break player mentally

There are some stimulants(boosters) for physical training(gym, sports, etc) that can do miracle about your reaction time, performance, focus, etc. Ofc the right one as some can make you shaky. From few of them tho before I go to the gym when I play 1-3 games waiting for the moment to go I hit insane as truck for real. That's cheating in tournament tho as it's not your normal energy shit and gives you that "power" for atleast 1:30-2 hours. :P

the amount of enjoyment and intensity this ctf brought, unlike last years lolca and even tdm (both qcon & dh), is over 9000
such close games in the final stages, i can say i really enjoyed it.

congrats to 2014

about tox and evil

toxic played great till quarters and seemed to be getting into his old groove (but not quite there yet), but unfortunately it all went downhill in the semis vs dahang, who i think is playing better than ever, so 3:0 isn't that much of a surprise after all is said and done.

evil, although we didn't see any of his group games until that last map vs zero4, he didn't seem to be that evil we were used to seeing, especially losing all group games, except vs rapha,
and then the same thing that happened to tox in the semis, happened to him, he ran into cypher, who is also playing on top of his form, and without timings and rail, he didn't stand a chance

they both played if-y, but the fact that they managed to get to bronze finals is a great result for them i think, although they may think they could've done better.

fact is, whoever you're a fanboy of, the two players that are playing their best at this tournament are gonna play in the grand finals

ggs & wp

(i'm still disappointed in some of the technical difficulties and management of the tournament)

P.S. shoutout to doomsday, i really enjoyed watching him play :)

Brief note to "organizers": in the future, please don't publish interviews like tox's - where he admits to feeling insecure about his aim - while the tournament is still ongoing. His candidness is certainly commendable, but feeding valuable info which couldn't have been guessed easily to upcoming opponents looks kind of un-"professional" to me.

really impressed with toxjq, he actually played proper duel. He was timing items, leaving them up to trap niggas and rotating like a boss.

I just hope he will keep playing and learning and eventually enjoy quakelive mental aspects of the game. if that happens then evil/cypher faceit finals will be totally fucked as toxjq will be in that shit too.

If there's a player of the tournament award, it has to go to tox.

Even though he's a well known dueller, I don't think anyone really expected him to make the semi finals. He's definitely proved himself to be one of the worlds best this year. I know his style doesn't appeal to everyone but I find him really entertaining to watch.

That's because they're fickle idiots, the guy beat cooller 18-0 on dm6 at quakecon in 2004 won the quakecon masters title a few years later which officially makes him the best overall quake player on the planet as it covered several versions and over the last two versions of quake he's no doubt the best combined player. Did I mention widely regarded as unbeatable at quake 4, even with all the best players trying?

And some of you noobs get all surprised he did good at quake 3 on LAN that he travelled halfway around the world to play.

Not me.

P.S.

His brother also won quakecon and they probably spent most of their youth lanning together at home. Oh and they are from Sweden too.

Defo not surprised, ever!

Actually, QuakeCon 2004 was the game were Cooller called gg 13 minutes in leading by 8 frags or so, concluding that toxic's lg was nothink on the lan. However, toxic did beat Cooller pretty badly on dm6 the year after, at ESWC 2005, winning the bo3 over Cooller but he didn't advance from the groups.

nothing wrong here. He was disappointed not making it past groups and was grateful for people that helped him get there. Brackets are a weird thing of balancing play time and skill, and a lot of good players got booted early this year :/ I wanted to see more of dem0n, strenx and others.

Looking back at it I can understand your point of view... But don't get me wrong there on my intentions, it can sound like I'm dissing the americans when I say i'm disappointed about my performances but I actually just forgot to mention a few things (when beeing interviewed, especially with how tired I was, I mostly tried to sound logical in my explanations :D). Like, for example, I've never quite seen anyone playing toxicity the way chance played it. His spam shots and covering of angles was spot on and it made me realize I wish I could have the chance (pun intended) to playing more against a style of his, which imo is lacking in Europe.

tl;dr: I wasn't playing quite close to what I know I can do but that does not mean I would've won the group or chance and that I was taking it for granted.

Sorry if I sounded like a complete douche to you, but that was not my intention..

I don't know about tox but Evil clearly underperformed, both aim wise and strategy wise. Evil is totally capable of getting into Cypher's head and beat his +back positional heavy aim strategy. Sadly he showed signs of losing his form long before Quakecon. Double elimination could make the things more tense but I don't think anyone can take the crown from Cypher right now.

Cypher played amazing. Brilliant decision-making, spectacular aim, and total confidence. All three matches he fell behind quickly at the start, but did not get flustered or try to force situations to get into control. He waited for opportunities and never over-extended himself even when he hit a chain of several good shots.

DaHang's performance was clearly not at the level it was on Thursday. I think DaHang's mental game was likely affected by the CTF matches immediately preceding finals. He looked very smart and calculated during all his matches on Thursday (winning his series against everyone in Group A). Very calm, not too aggressive but made smart plays and hit shots surprisingly well. But it was like his brain was shut off for finals compared to what he did on Thursday. I'm not sure whether it was too much confidence or not enough? Perhaps the loss of the showmatch ruined DaHang's focus? Every match he got a quick lead and then folded when he got outplayed.

Cypher should have qualified his statement ("you rush too much") with, "you rush too much if you're going to aim like shit and always be out of position".

Cypher watched that match and just knew, "Oh yeah.. This is gonna be easy. Watch how Dahang plays when he doesn't have 100+ hp & armor, rush rush rush, easy money."

Owell, at least the CTF was entertaining.

Cypher could've given him at least one map for his birthday but I guess he just don't care. Still great final.

I felt like they handled the main stage much better than the last year, wasn't as unbearable and there was a bit more emphasis on the tournaments. Just wish they did a short interview with the winner after the game.

I'd not say "arrogant and disrespectful" in this case. Cypher seemed to be genuinely confused why dahang kept rushing and dying for so many times in a row. To me it looked like cypher just couldn't help it but ask wtf.

Dahang is in final of Quakecon. Does it needs to receive a lesson from his opponent ? It was just a lack of respect. No more, no less.

Dahang was up 6-0 within 4 minutes, and within 3 minutes Cypher got up by about 10.. That's 16 frags within the 4 minutes dahang spent to get 6 frags. Not a lack of respect, just pointing out major flaws. The disrespectful part was Cypher toying with dahang for the 2 other maps to follow LAWL!

3rd wp to cypher for getting his 4th win and taking the lead

best quaker ever.

this is what happens if you train with 50 ping and 75hz against the best aggressive player QL ever had every single sunday of your life..
And when your opponent tries to do the same shit, he's not remotely as good as evil in doing so, and cypher is on 1 ms imput lag..
Well, when that happens, then you'll feel like typing your superiority just 5 minutes into the Bo5 because you already know how it's gonna end.

I'd play on qcon or DH setup over mine any day to be honest, that was not the issue. Also if we go into that, I was forced to play on 800*600 resolution during the duel day because the monitor/pc just wouldn't accept anything else. Syncerror sat down on my PC trying to fix the issue for 20 minutes and couldnt find a solution. The next day I played on another computer and it went fine after 1 min of setting my config up. I don't wanna throw in any such cheap excuses like those but that's just the way it was :/.

I could've changed pc but I had 10 minutes before the tournament started and I just thought: fuck it, going to play one quick warmup vs strenx. That's all I had as warmup going into qcon.

Style mismatch maybe like rapha vs aim players who are on a really good aimday (stermy, k1llsen, now tox). Cypher is used to that +fwd style because he played evil and av3k for so long. He even said that "u rush too much". Also Cypher was pretty on there. He was hitting all the important rails.

DaHanG was consistent until the very finals.

I don't what are you talking about, but their last finals vs each other at QCon was very close. If only DaHanG won t7 (which he was totally capable of) he'd win the whole thing 3-1.

Anyone else notice that evil was the only one on stage not to applaud cypher in the award ceremony? But I think he should understand now that cypher is just in a different league.

My favorite moment of QCon 2014: Cypher's easy 3:0 win over evil :D

Shame that rapha couldn't make the final, hope he comes back stronger next year.

After watching through the demos again (where's cypher's lostworld pov anyway), cypher's calm and confidence has been crazy. Seeing how he delayed rail shots while seemingly letting himself being entertained by dahang's anticipatory dodging moves - unreal.

AMASING CTF TOURNAMENT I ENJOYED EVERY SECONDS OF IT.

A few questions :
- What mouse WHAZ was using?
- What mouse cypher was using?

Can we have CFGs?

Cypher vs the noname guy ......was a gg.

next time QC must bring some high skillers for him!

ps. QC after collecting the fees and so many sponsors they manage to give the same amount of money like the other russian guy is giving for free in the 125fps. GG QC!

CTF tournament VODs were awesome to watch. Think it was the best one since 03 or 04 & Dreamhack when there were tons of established teams and the Cloud 9 / aAa / 519 / Md / Gunzoids / e, etc rivalries. Seems like the playstyle and maps have finally matured in QL. Too bad there aren't leagues to back it up...

Thought of a European-specific CTF addition... National flags in place of the base flags.

Well it's both, and I was referring more to NA than EU. If the people who played at Qcon (even discounting the top 3 or so) played leagues / pickups more it'd be pretty active. Not really sure how to encourage that.

Stayed up untill 4 AM to turn on the stream and see nothing but chubby muricans who would practicly eat their own fecies or crack each other skulls, in order to win a raffle ticket or some lame hardware... sweet jesus.

After the hillbilly fest had appartantly come to an end, I have never been happier to see DDK & zoot on stream, only to find out I misread the schedule and the "real" duel final wasn't untill 5:30 AM or something (such delay wow, amaze). Fell asleep somewhere after the 1st map.

They should bring in Thorin or something do to interviews. He brings on some new angles and questions, not just the boring standard fare 1-2 minute interview, "how do you like the tournament?", "how did your games go?", "any last words?"

Which reminds me of an article I glanced over recently, about why these oculus rift type glasses aren't supposed to be that well suited for fps shooters. Namely because the disparity between what you experience as visual reality and what's physically happening to your body - namely close to nothing - becomes so big that it may even induce nausea. I guess most of us know the phenomenon of our body automatically reacting to stuff that's happening on screen, but these glasses seem to take that to yet another level.

weird I got the same effect from HL2 for some reason

theres a reason the virtual boy was a flop. nobody wants those stupid goggles on, it makes you sick and nauseous. yet another flop in the making is my guess

No, it isn't bs as you apparently found out. It's called motion or simulator sickness:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_sickness

It's a real issue especially the virtual reality folks have to cope with. The article I referred to above is effectively an interview with Valkyrie executive producer Owen O'Brien. The fps part is a little further down:

Sure, I understood that. I'm also having a "must be some sissies" approach to stories about how this or that might be harmful. Until own experience forces me to wise up (about the relevance of the story or me being a sissy or not, depending on the perspective).

best screne:

cypher crouches down under the rocket - that was just pure SKILL.

it is sad for strenx who had a great start at the beginning. Why havent we seen him or any interviews with the top players?

Sad that rapha hasnt casted a single match - or maybe the finals.

Nice event overall.

Isnt 120hz better for a 125fps game? 144hz should create more tearing because of bigger difference between fps/hz.

toxic-rapha - probably best match
cypher-dahang gf - to see how cypher rapes
evil-toxic - to see how evil outshafts tox

Not many exciting matches this qcon, so you kinda have think of something in matches that is worth watching.

in LAN he's his natural beast form

online he's handicapped with belarus internet and a 75hz monitor. and the handicapped version can still go toe to toe with evil

I think he should get himself a nice 120 or 144hz monitor from that qcon money... :D . and better internet.

but there is still problem online motivation.. ofc on LAN all players have big motivation to win, and cypher is just beast there.. but online probably isnt that motivated alltime, when he lose vs lower skilled players (not evil)

LAN is where the field is leveled for every player, so if hes the better player on LAN, hes the better player, period.

Also cant believe he still hasnt bought a 120hz monitor.

Maybe he sticks with 75hz because it's more challenging and it makes him a better player once he switches over to 125hz on lan.

the entire vod of the event on twitch has about 40+ GB
when i cut the parts that didn't show anything but trophy and schedule with music playing it was 33.4 GB which equals about ~5 hours that was cut
not to mention time that showed players in the tournament area or bawls chugging on stage and Tim and the rest of the gang

i'd say it would add 4 more hours of "trash" time, at least

you do the math
