- Fatal1ty a 12x FPS World Champion and Esports Hall of Famer takes on one of his longtime gaming buds, Prognostic. Here you'll see Fatal1ty play Q3DM6, Pro-Tourney 4 & Pro-Tourney 2 in Quake Live (Quake III Arena).
Always a favorite to go back to one of the games I started my professional career with. 👊
Nice upload, thanks for the content 10:30 nice rails
thanks for the content! I've been following you since the 2000s!
More Quake we need :)
I have to agree we need more quake, i havent watched u in a long while and this randomly popped up for me and im glad it did good watch, will be waiting for more 😁
Can still see you have the basics and theory down well, if you played and got mechanics on board I sure you could compete again
Fatal1ty playing quake? That's some next level nostalgia.
No way you would remember this. But I met you at Quakecon '01 and got to play you 1v1 on Quake. I got a tee-shirt that you signed. I spent the next few years explaining who you were to all the other middle schoolers. Glad to see all is well with you bro, never stop frag'n
I remember watching your demo and seeing you jump from bridge to rail backwards during a competitive match. That was the coolest shit I saw in the early days.
i remember !
I'm 52 and still at it. Frag on!
Heck yes 💪
oh yeah!
Man seeing this after loosing the family member who showed me this and told me about you.. hits hard. You're a legend and never forgotten! Love it that you're still active and fragging along. Keep it up @Fatal1ty :)
Fat, with QL coming back, I hope you decide to come back with some of the legends. Would be amazing to see you get a month of practice in and show these young’uns how it’s done. You look so happy playing this again.
he wouldn't make it past the first round
God damn, q3dm6 brings so many memories...
Bro I am nerding out hard rn I am glad you are producing i just started watching all the rafah/evil hooplah
the OG cYbEr AtHlEtE
It's still the best 1 v 1. F.P.S. ever made.
( nope ) but a LEGEND !
absolutely, the late nineties, early 2000s was maybe the second best time of my life.
rocking ctf with my team in europe was awesome
a shame that ID didnt see the signs of competetive e-sports coming
@@Anonymous-iw4hx What was your team ? I used to play a lot rocking ctf back then, insane times
@@jonnyboy2000 clan energy (NRG)
Would make a pretty good case for teams too.
Yup, Quake is the GOAT
I am bk playing as well. Quake champions and muscle memory is still there even if Iam now 43yo 😂
Same , won 10 one v ones in a row the other night . God I miss quake. started competitive multiplayer with doom 2 in 1995 right after graduating high school and jumped into quake one in 1996 . I mostly play 2042 and cod now and still lead the leaderboards in the majority of my matches at the young age of 46. Honestly, still playing at the same level when I was 19. Probably a little better because I’m more patient 😂
@@entreri76xpractice makes perfect, and since perfection doesn’t exist. I’m always practicing.
@@notturok7841nice one
Great video. Quake Live is so much fun
I really do love how your aim is still clean. Would be thrilled to see you whoop ass on clan arena with the current playerbase, it'd be a fantastic moment for us to be sure. There are some absolute demons in these CA servers.
nice to see you back mr wendel sir, i remember qcon 2k highlights and the comeback vs All*Aim on dm6 that leaded me to train dm6 and later on pro-q3dm6 so hard :) alot changed so far and evolved you play very oldschool fashion i love that so much. hope u get into it and deliver us hardcores and anybody else nice content with q3/ql :)
Doing regular streams of this might single handedly bring back quake popularity. To this day nothing has surpassed quake 3, IMO.
The backwards bridge to rail!
I'm lucky if I can do that forwards still 😄
Same. ^^
when you start practicing using the main ledge and not the little side edge that's a little lower, that's when it starts gettin real inconsistent 😅
Hey man, bought your first collab mobo when it was new. Awesome to finally see some gaming. Respect
Dont care u have more than 40, u'll always get fun with this game.
The only difference now is the advancements of mice and polling rates of 1KHz with LCD monitors that only a few years ago caught up to CRTs with refresh rates greater than 60Hz
Nunca serás viejo para Quake... Fuiste mí inspiración para jugar y mejorar en Quake 3. Me da muchísimo gusto verte jugar QUAKE nuevamente. Espero poder jugar contigo, un 1vs1 algún día. Saludos desde Argentina!!!
Movement Rapha, Aiming Fatal1ty no arguments.
I'll never forget the day that I 6-1'd Fatal1ty 1v1 rail only, when I was only 14. I was literally grinding quake 3 almost like it was a day job. Holy cow does time fly by. These were the good 'ol days.
started playing when i was 8 years young (now 19) cause my dad showed me and ever since then iv played almost every. single. day.
Fatal1ty and zezima were gods in the 2000s and both still are goats
The GOAT back in the arena.
lol
cypher, evil rapha were next level.
he is a dinosaur who lived before real GOATs.
@@user-jd1mq8gg7e , Rapha is next level indeed, but he is next level comparing to ANY 1v1 Quake player Ever in Entire Quake history
Cypher is better in Quake than Fatal1ty too, because more Top results in Multiple Quake games, than Fatal1ty
But Evil is Much Lower level than Fatal1ty. Cause even in Quake Live, Evil was Top 3, he was A Lot weaker than Rapha and Cypher. Also Evil won Big (tier 1-1,5) Quake tournament only 1 time (DreamHack Winter 2012)
While Fatal1ty was Top 2 in Quake 3, and he won tier1 Quake 3 tournament (Razer CPL 2000), and two tier1-1,5 ones (WCG Challenge 2000 and BattleTop Universal Challenge 2000). Also Fatal1ty won Big tournaments in Doom 3, Unreal Tournament 2003, and other shooter games (Painkiller and some "Aliens versus Predator 2" game)
@@razorm3127 evel much lower than Rapha and Cypher? lol
evil beaten cypher and rapha many times. you dont know what u are talking about
@@user-jd1mq8gg7e , unlike you, I know very well what I'm talking about
Evil Much worse than Rapha and Cypher. Because even in Quake Live, "the indicator" of the best player - is the number of tier1 tournaments he has won. And Evil won only 1 tier1 tournament (DreamHack Winter 2012)
And here are tier1 tournaments, that Rapha won:
1. QuakeCon 2016. Rapha defeated Evil in Grand Finals
2. QuakeCon 2016. Rapha defeated Evil in Grand Finals again
3. QuakeCon 2016. Rapha defeated Evil in Grand Finals too
4. DreamHack Summer 2012. Evil is defeated by Cypher in Quarter Final
5. QuakeCon 2011
6. IEM5 World 2011
7. DreamHack Winter 2010 Finals
8. ESWC 2010 Finals
9. IEM4 World Finals
10. QuakeCon 2009
Also Rapha won $127000 Prize money in QL, while Evil won only $47000
So Evil is still one of the Best Quake Live players, but not even close to Rapha level
@@user-jd1mq8gg7e , and now time for Cypher. Tier1 tournaments he won:
1. QuakeCon 2014. Cypher defeated Evil in Semi Final
2. DreamHack Winter 2013. Evil was defeated by Rapha in Semi Final
3. QuakeCon 2012
4. DreamHack Winter 2011
5. DreamHack Summer 2011 (general prize pool is maybe like tier1,5 , but prize for top1 is still big enough). Evil died even during group stage here (and he lost group stage match to Cypher)
6. UGC 2011 (close to tier1,5 too)
7. DreamHack Winter 2010
8. QuakeCon 2010
9. IEM4 European Finals
10. QuakeCon 2008
And Cypher won $114000 Prize money (vs still $47000 by Evil). So result is same as with Rapha - Evil is A Lot lower than Cypher's level
* * * * *
So as you can see, in the most important tournaments (tier1 ones, with biggest money prize and prestige) - Evil almost always lost to either Rapha or Cypher, constantly remaining only one or two steps away from first place
Yes, Evil still won both Rapha and Cypher during DreamHack Winter 2012 (tier1 tournament, where Evil won top1). But it doesn't matter much, cause it is like when you won only 2 rounds and lost 10 in boxing match
Hell yeah man nice to see this! :)
"can I still frag?" proceeds to frag
Really legendary, I remember him. Easy played, gg❤
I like how people are talking about game graphics all the time and buy 4090s to enjoy 4k with rtx while I am just sitting here enjoying the gameplay at picmip 500
Still got it! just thought of ya and looked you up glad to see you making content!
QL was and still is one of if not the best playable games ever. And its best and most even to compete. There is no other game FPS to compete on fair ground 1vs1 or TDM. Amen. Hail Quake!
I can imagine great come back of QL after years of booooring QC, everyone will come to QL back like a prodigal sons.
@Fatal1ty Of course you can and you always will!
The rocket at 4:43
gives me hope that one day I can return to quake as an older man and still hit a good shot or two. As of right now im 23 and the game aint dead yet :D
Always best to see Quake Live. You forgot com_max 250 and you don’t like to play with lightmaps where it removes the map textures so you get clean white look?
this is the first time i see Fatal1ty...
Ey, I still use your Zalman Fatal1ty case. Kinda heavy!
Recuerdo comprar el mouse con mi primer sueldo. Que recuerdos!
Quake Champions
no
There he was terrible
Much love bro , y'all got me to make NiTRO now I have 2 cards mobo and accessories lines ... AbiT
4:45 was pretty sick
Really nice to see. Give us a showmatch between you and Zero4.
Fatal1ty is back!
What a throw back.
I never could in the first place, but cool to see. Hope you're doing well John.
Fatal1ty vs Rapha showmatch, lets make it happen!
More YT Vids bro! This takes me back!
I was a teen when I watched your MTV episode. Hope all is well.
quake 6 is coming
21 minutes of a 40 year old concentration face. I feel you bro, I'm 37 LOL
Hi Fatal1ty the oldschool quaker #1. back in early 2000's when at the top of your focus, would you say your reflexes were around 170ms or even closer to 150ms? with them 125hz+ monitors back then?
I still remember my Abit Fatal1ty AN8 SLI… ;-)
fatality.. ! I know you won't believe that I have been searching for your videos for so long about when and why you left quake and I am really overwhelmed to see your quake video..
Why don't you play quake live and quake champions ?
We don't forget the important stuff. :D One of the best games I played in my life. : )
4:43! :O the man still knows.
I just downloaded quake live
Q3A good old days :)
btw my Fatal1ty Professional P67 mother board still working properly too and I still playing Q3 on it :P
Excellent
Clean as hell
i'm 45 and i quake live after 10 years break
Quake 3 2024 World Championship fatal1ty x reef in Rio
Would be very nice.
Legend!
I wish this was a pub
Whats up with the slow downs?! Computers these days can't handle Quake Live anymore? Or are you still on the same computer since 2003? XD
Are you playing on a CRT?
Practise practise practise. Hope to see you play Q4 some time
Hi drejjk
Hi)
I'm 45 and people say you loose reflexes when you get older. I say you only loose time and practice
heya i used to play qw and q3 you back in the heyday and I thought to check in, glad you're still deleting people ;) can you imagine playing t4 after talking about q3 test days 2 decades later? lol
Go go bro
As we grow older, it becomes more important to maintain our reaction time and stuff, and arena shooters and racing games is by far my favorite forms of brain exercise 👍
my guy !
please play agent if possible
4:45 niceeee
Was the opponent a random player or a friend?
55 years old and lost my config. You took down the generator. 😢
Ah game that can make you negative score and humiliate by air rockets
please do a fun 1v1 against rapha
Would probably be hilarious :D
Too good
JESUS christ man, i wished i started playing quake back in 1999.. iinstead i went to unreal tournament but EPIC games dropped that game so hard
Just started playing Quake champio0ns I love 1on1 i play it 10 hours a day lol. I dont have to work for money which gives TIME..
i remeber 1x playing with dignitas frantic in a 2on2 like 15 years back for fun.. games are fun as hell better than getting drunk in a pub.
BUT your right people give UP instead of practise their butt off.
Yeah that's about what you did to me in 1-1 :) - Cabl3guy
💪💪💪
why do you play live over 3?
like riding a bicycle :)
our generation will never become too old for a lot of stuff because the newer ones are weak and coddled
God damn. So fast
Gran jugador de q3
crazy aim
This would only be best if you had played Quake. I started Quake in 1996. That is real nostalgia. I never got into Q3 or after, I played some Q2 and eventually into Q3 for a few month's and quit. I played many many notable people in quake from Deathrow, Unforgiven, Smurfs, and so on. I played the infamous Thresh in Q1/Q2 quite a few times. There are demo's with myself and him going at it in Q1 on DM6/DM2/DM4 and I think we did one on E2M1 or E1M1.
noice
I feel bad for this guy lololol
bro put a TM on his name in a casual video game
i have tons of hardware with your nickname XD
Ah, should have played test or ry (the guys in spec that last match). Much better challenge.
please play agent if possible (quakeAGENT)
I still play Quakelive and ranked asia server duel 1#
wait what asia QL isnt dead?
i thought asians were allergic to arena shooters
@@generic6099i started playing quake live again late 2022-2023 in beijing, after a decade of not playing it, there are people on chinese servers who played quake 3 arena since its release, never stopped. guys as old as me, i had absolutely no chance, also played against rocketboy.
now back in europe i play Clanarena sometimes but the community is toxic as hell, even got kicked for bad performance and not sticking to tactics i didnt know about.
damn i am just a 40+ dude who wants to have some fun after work :D
Too ez 4 wendel
Очень неплохо для старого нуба)))
Now play against rapha
0;23 to 01:00 :O !
Are there even Quake Players under 40??
19 here started at 8 lol
@@QuartQ3 wow sure ;) what was i thinking
