They all got experience in teams such as Insignia Cadre, Button Bashers or Team YoYoTech. They just signed up for the evu cup 5, which starts this Sunday, so you will have the opportunity to see our team in action for the first time. We all wish them good luck and a nice stay in Vicious and Evil.

Community favorite Cyrus "proZaC" Malekani, also known as "the p1mp", celebrates his return to the Quake scene. As one of Sweden´s former TDM stars he will go to enter the IEM Asian Championship in Taiwan and will fight for one of the two slots to qualify for the Global Finals in March. fragster invited proZaC to an interview to speak about the upcoming event, his shape and why god is on his side. Here's a snippet:

Quote

It's been a while since you have been part of a Quake event. What happened during the last years?

proZaC: Woah, so many things ... I studied game development and got hired by Avalanche Studios to work on Just Cause 2. Then the financial crisis happened and that put a serious monkey wrench in the wheels of the game development industry (in Sweden anyway) and I became a kindergarten teacher instead, which was the best job I've ever had. After this the timing and opportunity was perfect to go to study in Japan. So here I am!

What are your plans then? A comeback in the eSport/Quake scene maybe?

proZaC: I don't know for sure yet, but I have a lot of fun playing quake again and watching all the good matches in the recent tournaments just makes me pumped - so maybe yes?

Read the full Interview in English and German.

Yesterday, the ESL European section opend their Quake Live area with the start of a 1on1-Ladder and already over 29 people signed up and played the first matches. The rules are pretty simple. To participate you just need to enter your Quake Live name in your ESL profile, nothing more. With the new Matchmaker it is pretty simple to get a match at the date you want to play.
The matches will be played "Best-of-One" with a timelimit of 10 minutes.

Tonight will be the match between the 1st and 2nd place of the Call of Duty Eurocup Group D. PGS will meet VAE on mp_strike at 20:00 CET. Both teams got equal stats at the moment, both with two wins and one loss. PGS is currently in the lead of group D, cause they won two more rounds then the swedes. VAE recently surprised the scene with their victories over eSuba and xtothed, but this match will decided if they reach the playoffs or not.

It's an "all or nothing" match against PGS tonight. After Infused dropped out of the EC the victory over them is useless for the rankings, otherwise we would be in front of PGS. If we lose it all depends on xtotheds last match if we reach the playoffs or not, but be sure that we will try everything which is possible to take home the third victory in the current EuropCup.
Good luck and have funn at all!

Prepare yourself for the upcoming Winnerbracket Semi-Final match of the Don Baker Cancer Research Cup between The last Resort and Vicious and Evil. Both teams passed the first round in that cup without any problems and will face each other tonight at 20:30 CET. Whilst VAE received a forfeit win in their last game TLR had no problems sending Titanz into the Lowerbracket of that Cup. ETTV will be available for that game and an English audiocast by mistaken on ETL Radio.

Almost seven months ago VAE presented their first ET: Quakewars Squad. Back then, the competition scene was pretty good. We saw Teams like Dignitas, SPEED-LINK, Geh aB!, Logitech and many more organisations, who recruited ET:QW Squads. But since then, the scene was dieing more and more.
After a long talk with the VAE.QW players we decided to not put any more effort in that game. Since the 27th of January 2008 the Squad had 48 official wars.
In 34 of them they were able to take the victory, 11 times they were the losers and 3 times the match ended in a draw. They received eight awards in their time under the VAE tag:

With the announcement of the Eurocup and the next Crossfire Lan edition a lot of players decided to come back to Enemy territory for those events. Also, the multi gaming organizations are picking up ET teams again. One of them is Vicious and Evil. The team consist of former VAE member, who already played at the major ET events under the VAE flag, but without further ado i would like to present you the new ET-Lineup:

Vicious and Evil.ET

• Jussi 'twidi' Tiipiö
  
• Leo 'lettu' Haasanen
  
• Mikko 'mikza' Suppula
  
• Taneli 'Squall' Härkönen
  
• Harri 'Iron' Lehtoaho
  
• Tino 'chmpp' Valle
  
• Tero 'cadein' Pölläniemi

ET: Quakewars is alive...
At least the Eurocup is going on, currently less default wins than in the ET Eurocup.
Tonight, the Consolation Final will take place between Wiechury and Vicious and Evil.
Both teams already lost against Four-Kings in that tournament and guess what: The winner will face Four-Kings in the Grand Final again.
The game, which starts at 21:00 CET, will broadcasted by ET:QW TV and remember that you don't need a valid ET:QW key to watch it.


* Wiechury Lineup: aA, suri, nsk, Marte, nexoge, bhn, Rzezn1k
