Note: Mondragon vs Sen will be happening at the exact time we're going live as well. But we will be casting for hours after the TSL2 match is over tomorrow, so I implore you guys to switch over once SC is done  .
A special Quake Live broadcast and a Street Fighter legend come to Live On Three this weekend, with hosts Marcus "djWHEAT" Graham & Rod "Slasher" Breslau broadcasting finals day coverage of the Silent Gamers Cup. The online event is being held to help raise awareness of the league, which will help serve the needs of those in the deaf and hard of hearing community. North America's top duelers Shane "rapha" Hendrixson, Tim "DaHanG" Fogarty, Tom "griffin" Wall, Chance Lacina are all participating, including the appearance of the legendary John "ZeRo4" Hill. All the action starts at 2 PM EST with the pre-game show starting at 1:30 PM EST with predictions and interviews. We will have player interviews over the course of the event as well as the winner at the end.

At the conclusion of the event, which we have put roughly at 6:30 PM EST, Street Fighter legend Alex Valle will be coming on to talk about a new fighting tournament series he is a part of that is launching called the SoCal Level|Up Tournament series. The debut event will is set to take place next weekend, February 27th, at Dave & Busters at The Block at Orange. There will be a 64-man tournament in Street Fighter 4 and Tekken 6, featuring the west coast's top players and a bonus $1,000 for each overall winner. Level|Up COO Jimmy "ShinJN" Nguyen and media specialist AJ "PotatoHead" Papa will be joining the call as well to talk about the release and concept of this project, the first event next weekend, and what we might see in the future, including the release of Super Street Fighter 4 in the near future.
Other news topics we will touch on

3 overtimes ... pretty insane for only the 2nd competitive quake match i've seen casted like this.
|
It's fun. I aways liked Quake and it's cool to see it in a totaly diffrent prespective.

I don't understand why it's a featured stream on teamliquid.net
Shouldn't they feature every gaming stream from SF4 to WoW then if they want to post up quake streams on the front page.
Sorry but Djwheat/slasher and their whole show has never really covered SC much, or accurately. I don't see why now that SC2 is coming out and it actually is gonna be $$$ attached all the sudden they get featured/promoted on teamliquid.net. I thought this was a SC site, not a site for some people to advertise their podcast which is 99% not SC related.

Damn these guys are playing really fast.. and shooting with great accuracy.

that would be great if they had more streams for other games. great idea!
i think having pro caster streams posted as featured streams can do nothing but help the e-sports community in general. theres no reason tl should be just some starcraft only clique. teamliquid.net represents more then just starcraft gaming. it represents esports as a whole and should embrace all forms of it. just take a look at all the HUGE threads that focus on other games and their communities. dont be such a hater...if you dont like the stream dont watch it.
