CPL Does Teamplay

As professional gaming is the flavor of the day, CPL has announced 2 more tournaments for this year. Firstly (and most excitingly to me) is a teamplay tournament to be held at the end of October. FRAG4. They prize purse will be about $30,000 cash. At the end of the year during mid-December they will be playing host to yet another $100,000 cash tournament sponsored by Babbages.

The FRAG 4 will be at the Hyatt Regency in Dallas and will take place October 26-29, 2000. This event will be different from all previous CPL events, as it will host the CPL's first deathmatch team tournament. The total cash prize for the team tournament is expected to be $30,000

  • Why are there no huge UT tournaments? Regardless of the fact that certain top players dislike Quake 3...its seems like even less like UT...

    What exactly is holding back the competitive UT scene? Sponsorship? Seems like the sponsors would support the more popular game...Perhaps UT sucks for competitive play?(this is so near a fact, but i'll still say it's an opinion.)

    Perhaps the majority of hardcore players actually do prefer Q3 to UT? I know fatal1ty enjoys the game immensly, but I'd like basketball a hell of a lot more if I could dunk, shoot 3 pointers...etc...

    Perhaps the sponsors want to support the more graphically appealing game? Perhaps it has something to do with id/Epic? Maybe it's just tradition to hold tournaments with id games?(doubtful. sponsors don't drop a hundred grand because of "tradition.")

    Perhaps Q3 OWNZ?
