Coming up this weekend is the Natural Selection 2 World Championship Finals! Hosted in the ESL TV studios in Cologne (that's right, where the IEM SC2 Cologne tournament was hosted!) the top 4 teams who have made it through to the semis will battle for the trophy and the glory of being NS2 world champions!

Titus Gaming, Saunamen, Legendary Snails, and Godar have fought their way through - and with some crowdfunding from the NS2 community and some generous assistance from the creators of NS2 Unknown Worlds, and the title sponsors Intel and NVIDIA GeForce - they are all being flown out to Germany for the finals.

[image loading]


REDDOG.TV, WasabiOne and Blind will be there for commentary, bringing you all the action live from 5pm CET (that's 3am AEDT here in STRAYA, 8am PST in MURICA and 11am EST in MURICA other side).

If you've never played Natural Selection 2 - here's a short video I made demonstrating some aspects of the game:

If you've played NS2 and know your stuff but have unfortunately missed some of the finals, jump on to Reddog's Youtube channel and have a look, I'd recommend starting here:

Additionally, if you'd like to see the game in action, tonight on FOWL PLAY I'll be streaming NS2 live - starting at 7pm AEDT (GMT+10) - come hang out, watch some Alien chomping, some Marine shooting (with my bad aim) and maybe even some commanding. Please feel free to ask questions about the game or the World Championships coming up this weekend. My stream is over at www.twitch.tv/duckvillelol

I hope you can tune in to the NS2 WC, should be a really great eSports event!

SICKKK! I'm so excited to watch this!

The original NS was my favourite multiplayer game for so long. Mixing the adrenaline and tactics of FPS into a Co-op Team vs Team RTS setting is just awesome. Had so much fun playing the original, really need to find more time to learn more classes in NS2!

Pig I didn't know you played NS...... These old match clips are so nostalgic. I had to rewatch these after seeing that.





The aussie scene was always awesome and active. Haven't touched NS2 since the Alpha I had no idea it was making a push at any kind of tournaments. Miss HL engineeeeee. :<

Apparently they just sort-of released the NS source code on steam?
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them you're a mile away and you have their shoes. Playing Protoss is like driving automatic, playing Terran is like driving stick.

Yeah the local scene here in Aus is quite good - there are 10 active teams in the Aus NS2 League (just started last week) and lots of players around. We had our top players in a really good team (Ascension) and they just fell out of the playoffs before the semis a few weeks ago.

The source code for NS1 has been released; it's over here on Github: https://github.com/unknownworlds/NS/
