This is the 1st time in 2012 I click on the sub-forum, looking at the post, I guess it reflects local gaming scene too?

So who's still alive in here, any old kaki left? No CS tournament this year, only heard of Dota, HON.

These arent the droids you are looking for. The princess is in another castle.

Maybe I'm not in the scene for too lOng, I couldn't understand your sense of humor.

Still lurking around?

Abang nles everyone is at facebook now laa

malaysia COD4 scene dead ?

^Dead long time ago . People play COD series just for the fun nowadays

international cod4 teams are moving into cs go. =O

haha is dead already. gaming is like luxury sports already just like playing golf in golf course.

just voicing out my angers on some team's not moving on in malaysia, hate it or love it, this is me, i'm able to see what's going on in the world and you haters not able to.

for what reason they want to play cs:o/1.6 when they cant even do a single shit in the international scene? for the f***ing free vacation? if they really wanna see malaysia esport scene shines, why cant they focus in the asia scene first when they cant even do a single shit in international scene?

sponsors are pouring money into cs go, 1.6 is slowly fall apart due to no more money involved, why can't they accept the f***ing fact that current world generation is all about money? seriously f***tard brainless shit.

if you tell me you're playing for the community, not a single cents will come into your pocket, and YES you wont be famous for playing 1.6 due to no money involved.

i seriously support those pros team that moved on because they see where the money are flowing into, and it will bring up the heat again where we all experienced it back in 2000s, just look at how starcraft 2 are f***ing successful now, the money is there to be played, who would want to live their life if there's no reason for them to live?

its as dead as dead can be...

during my days even when the community was small, it was exhillarating. Quake matches by whirizm, b**** post by bitach0. Even the CS scene was awesome with scrims all over.. fmj, edts, nbtd, nkaa

Probably no one is running those events especially with no prize money sponsor.

An easier one will be online event but no one is doing it. We have some inhouse here and there but no big community or organiser gathering all together. A small prize money like rm100, winner take it all will be enough for online one and u get to attract more players than offline already.

Some big organiser, ahem rinie....ahem =p should probably start an online ladder ranking or held league type tournament.

I'm more than happy to sponsor servers for anyone who want to run some cs go or even cs1.6 tournament. Any Valve game including tf2 or left 4 dead 2 as well. If you got any good plan, I can ask eclub for some game sponsor or something since they are eager to promote cs go especially.

Well, I would like to see TF2 or L4D 2 as these games are fun and have a 4 team limit. Maybe we can discuss further......me and a team are scheming a plan.......we will how, can u PM me ur contact?

You can drop me a PM. For TF2, there is the normal 6 vs 6 and 9 vs 9. I got admins working on that already.

facepalm my english.......

As far as vibrancy of the scene goes, the Dota scene has seen better days. The times of new stars popping out every 6 months or so to challenge the status quo and even more new faces trying to be the next star was gone since 2010.

But tabulated in sheer achievement and money earned by the very elite teams, Malaysian Dota and Dota 2 has produced some stunning results.

MUFC was the 2011 Asian WCG champion of Dota 1 and Dota 2, a magnificient feat considering how diverse both games are even though they are created from the same person.

Both MUFC and Orange were invited to participate in this year's The International 2 ("TI2"), a 16-team-invitational-only Dota 2 tournament organized by Valve to promote the game. TI2 offers USD1 million dollars for the first placed team. Looking back at the list of invites, it was impressive considering Malaysia is only one of the few nations that have the privilege to have more than 1 team invited aside from China (5 teams) by virtue of having the best Dota scene, Ukraine (2) by virtue of having the defending champion Natus Vincere in it and USA (2) by virtue of them being the 'home' team.

After the conclusion of TI2 one week ago, our very own Orange which consists of Mushi, Yamateh, Xtinct, Ice and Winter managed to secure joint 7-8 placing earning themselves USD25,000 or and equivalent of RM15,000 each for their efforts. They are currently in the WB Finals of the Asian WCG in KLCC being the favourites to win the tournament and pocketing USD3,000 along the way.

TI2 was won by Invictus Gaming ("iG") from China this year. Of interest is the sole Malaysian player in Invictus Gaming, Chuan. He left the Malaysian scene in 2010 heading to China's professional Dota scene having earned his stripes in local teams such as Netcity, w4si, Mineski.MY, Kingsurf. At the time of his departure, he was not the best skilled player at the local scene, but he quickly made his name in the profesional circuit in China, being renowned for his skills. From there onwards, he rose through the ranks and managed to secure a buy-out of USD6 million for his then team into Invictus Gaming, bankrolled by a billionaire in China.

With his livelihood secured as a professional gamer getting paid to hone his skills everyday, he set out to dominate the Chinese Dota scene with his all-star team. During early 2012, iG got an invite to participate in TI2 and their boss made a promise to pay out another USD1 million if they managed to win the event. With this incentive, they trained hard and managed to win it, netting the whole team a total USD2 million or an equivalent of RM1.2 million per person. Based on this tournament alone, Chuan could effectively be the most successful E-sport athlete in Malaysia based on cash earned with RM1.2 million safely in the bag.

The point I am trying to make from the above para is: the scene in Malaysia needs developing for sure. But Chuan's example shows us what is possible (even for a Malaysian) if we put our hearts into it and make the right decisions along a relatively short life of an E-sport athlete.

To answer the question of the topic, the scene is kinda gg at the moment, but Chuan's example shows that the Malaysian scene do have the potential to produce high-earning E-sports athletes with the help of professionalism from a scene like China's.

Basically it's the same situation for the starcraft 2 progaming scene here. The only news I got was from a single post in the wcg website. People don't even bother discussing the tournament in the starcraft 2 sub-forum or ANY local forum in malaysia for that matter.

Why can't we be more like www.teamliquid.net ?

In cantonese we usually say "got good thing still wan share with people meh?".

Ever since FXOpen has stopped their action in investing in Malaysia SC2 scene, less and less event for SC2 happening already.
