Interview with ESA Director Didge

June 10, 2013 1 comment Article

A week ago the Electonic Sports Association has opened it’s doors and went into public beta. ESAGamer.com is what you can call a fundraiser website with a prize distribution promise for eSports tournaments, not just for pros, but for everyone. All you need to do is put in £5 to get everything going.

Of course when a new site like this has been launched people have a lot questions. We had the chance to sit together with the director of ESA over a Skype call and ask him some questions, so we dove straight in with questions about the prize distribution. Read More

EUQL.org Interview with reigning Quake Live champion Cypher

March 29, 2009 2 comments Article

The guys at EUQL recently did an interview with 2008’s Quakecon and ESWC Quake (Live) champion Alexey “Cypher” Yanushevksy. Everybody was allowed to send in questions for the young Belarusian which resulted in some mildly interesting conversation: How do you turn the tides of a game when the opponent has item-locked you? (Cabelekse) That depends Read More

After having shoutcasted some of the biggest and most memorable Quake 3 tournaments in history, djWHEAT went on to work for the Championship Gaming Series. Upon the recent failure of the Championship Gaming Series in November 2008, djWHEAT announced his return to both the Quake scene and his podcast shows Epileptic Gaming & Live On Three at djWHEAT.tv, promising a return to his good old no bullsh1t style of commentating.

Rob “Slasher” Breslau is deeply rooted and well connected in the internet gaming industry. Slasher headed sections of some of the largest gaming websites such as Gotfrag, SK-Gaming and Gameriot. In addition to that, Slasher also makes his presence known as a shoutcaster at some of the biggest Quake events in the world. His most recent appearance being at the 2008 Quakecon finals.

AGP tour plans on being Quake Live only

February 2, 2009 No comments Article

agp-tourThe AGP-Tour website is being finalized and in about two weeks the last stage of its beta phase will begin. Over at fragster.de an interview was published with Jarod Reisin, the CEO of AGP’s “Quake only”-Tour.

For those of you who don’t know what the AGP Tour exactly is,… don’t worry, you’re not alone. About a year ago the organizer Jarod Reisin announced the AGP Tour would organize tournaments for several 1v1 games, such as UT, Q4 and Q3 as well as cover them in a way that’s not been done before.

Yet as soon as this news was released, the whole project just seemed to pretty much fall flat on it’s butt. Today however it seems they are renewing this dream, yet now exclusively for Quake Live duels. Read More

Let’s first take a look at which players each country in group 1 has in their lineups. Read More
