Many players have noticed that
Anton "Cooller" Singov wasn’t attending the last two
Asus Cups. In Winter Cup he told that had some work to do, and after Spring Asus it seemed like Anton doesn’t want to play anymore. Only few days ago the final list of participants to
ESWC Masters had appeared and we’re glad to see that
Cooller is still in action!
Cooller told proplay.ru that he will be attending the
ESWC Masters for sure! Also he will be attending the Russian ESWC qualifiers, but without Moscow tour. This information really boils the event - while in the participants list we can see
czm and
Zero4!
Another information is about #1
Quake 4 player, one of the greatest dueler in
Quake 3 -
toxiq. He won’t be attending the
ESWC Masters and
ESWC qualifications. The reason of such dicision is the usage of mode CPMA instead of OSP by ESWC organization, so talanted player is taking a break.
Zamuz won’t participated either but his younger brother
ArrW will continue "family buiseness".

The tourney
Quake Expo is dedicated to all Quake series and is not a tourney for gamers… but for map, modes, skins makers and for all fans of Quake history. The tourney is a virtual conference, where each player makes his own virtual project to demonstrate for Quake auditory. The tourney will take place in August and will last 11 days. It is a great pleasure to see that Quake series are popular among different age categories and nationalities. Quake isn’t dead and Quake Expo will try to show that the auditory of the Quake fans is huge and various.
