More talk about what weapons are good why they are good etc... or how they're approaching the map would really help an ultra newb. Well, Quake Live is free and you can play it in your browser. So the easiest way to get to know the weapons is just to play it for a few minutes | ||

They probably paid him to do this cast and to plug another competing organization is unprofessional even if it was just a joke. Although in retrospect I bet MLG wish they just had a bit thicker skin. With all the disconnects, stream restarts and bad production quality we've seen today, the last thing MLG should do is try to act professional. | ||

He's doing MLG a bigger favour by casting for them than they did him. Also to other people, you must be naive if you think the quote is fake. Why would he just leave when he was hyped to commentate this without any explanation by Slasher/Stermy? Obviously he was removed. | ||

Hes a huge troll, some stupid jokes are to be expected =P yeah i doubt they know what they were getting when they got him to commentate lol, its nothing new really with him bashing his own organizations if they fuck up, or hating on Matt for 1hr when it was WoW | ||

There is way more to the game, but you should watch a few more games, the timings that we see, they don't have for example. Quake's the most demanding FPS esport skill-wise but not everyone can get behind the whole weapon/player spawn based gameplay. Recognizing the importance of strategic locations based upon the value of the items that spawn there and assigning importance to it as a bystander is probably the biggest thing against Quake from a spectator's perspective, at least when we're talking about the sport struggling for viewers. While the level of play is obviously amazing to me it has always felt hollow compared to just about any team objective based shooter* *but not one played with a controller, rugrhgghr | ||
