This is brilliant, simply brilliant.

Da hypest hype! :-D

epic.

I love ganon and his robber's hood

gonna quit 1n1 and only play 4on4 just to be able to be in one of these pictures!! /me stranglewanking

Haha, you know people actually wear those when it's really cold? They're not illegal everywhere!

Best. Pic. Ever!

I actually put it as my desktop background image before I went to bed yesterday and behold... I dreamed about the EQL17 final game.
It was the final 5th map, DM2. In the 2nd overtime things where really tense and an epic fight between bps and Milton took place in big.
Milton hits bps perfectly and bps flew all the way to the big room roof, avoiding the floating thingy, leaving Milton on the ground with only 3hp.. but both are out of rockets.. bps starts falling again while Milton misses all shotgun attempts, bps manages to aim him self directly at Milton's head stomping him to death. And the buzzer sounds. It's game over and SD win by 1 frag -> A head stomp by bps in the final second of the 2nd overtime in the 5th map.

Epic.

So, that is what I dreamed about and I now except that result. Hopefully SD/tVS will oblige and make my dream come true.

is there gonna be demos+commentary, or preferably videos, for this? have there been for earlier rounds?

i haven't played in a long time and don't have stuff set up any more, but i love to follow the big tournaments. would more than happily chip in $10-$20 to watch videos with commentary of the finals, and i'm sure there are others like me.

The games will be streamed at http://www.twitch.tv/suddendeathTV for free in 60fps! Of course there will be commentary, as well.

You can watch the semifinals between Suddendeath and CMFS here: LINK.

Yours,

best ever. but hey. why does carapace have black arms and hands?

Spraytan lotion

Radiation from so many hours in front of a CRT monitor :-)

VODs of the finals can be found here: http://www.twitch.tv/suddendeathtv/c/3327687!

Thank you for tuning in!

Very nice work with the stream. Thanks to everybody for a great tournament once again.

Agreed, excellent stream!

Nice finals, too bad it was only 3 maps !
Nice commentary too, I like that Andeh spoke of the other TvS and not only about Milton,a thing that Phil tends to forget quite often
I just hope some other teams level up for the next season, so we can see new people battling for the title !

One can hope that the increased attention for division 1 makes more players want to step up for next season and form more teams while perhaps a couple make a comeback.

where can I find the mvds of the final?

Alright, found them here: http://demos.quakeworld.nu/download.php?id=139

thanks for commentary. i learned alot. where can i download teamspeak audio for tvs or sd?

Dunno if it's available, but you can watch it with commentary on twitch.com/suddendeathtv

We (tVS) don't record one and besides they'd be in Finnish and Swedish respectively.

i wouldnt understand but i think it would be fun to hear the emotion. like with sd on e12m last minute would be exciting to hear. thanks for response.

The finals are over, but this hype picture is legendary.

Damnit!
I was just about to hit "record" in teamspeak just before the final, but forgot it somehow.
Could've been fun to hear it overlayed the VOD, and especially there on e1m2

This is actually something that would be very interesting and educational for the community, in case teams are fine with it. If a team feels like doing this the next time, try not to forget!
