interview: Angel Munoz

[CSN NewsBot]

In the recent flood of interviews and CPL news, the CPL's founder, Angel Munoz has been interviewed by UK Terrorist:

It's impossible to talk about the last tournament without mentioning the final, was that like a dream moment for the CPL? Who did you think was going to win beforehand? Any idea how many people were watching throughout the world?



That final match was the most intense battle I have ever seen since I launched the CPL in 1997. I thought that X3 had a good chance to win but was not surprised when NiP actually ended up winning, they played fantastically well. Our latest calculations estimate that about 25,000 people were following the finals via IRC score-bot and HLTV.

Another top interview by Myers, well worth the read.

interview: Angel Munoz

As promised here is Sublyme's interview with CPL founder Angel Munoz. Sublyme talks with Angel about the event, CAL, and the future of both leagues. Have a look:

CS-Nation: Let's touch on the World Tour. It's a 1v1 tournament; is CS going away?



Angel: We have all our partners here today who are hosting the stops, and a lot of them in addition to the 1v1 game want to host a CS tournament. If just 5 of our partners in addition to the CPL held CS tournaments, We may have 7 tournaments next year! The World Tour is a good way to get our foot in the door with the media, and no CS is not going away. Consider it more of another branch than another direction.

More here!

Another accusation that has been made is that the CPL might (not deliberatly) be dictating how everyone must play the game. Since the change to MR, games using CO rules have plummeted and no tournament can be popular unless using MR, do you feel that the CPL does control how CS games are to be played? Or is this just how the game is evolving?

Someone please explain to me what the heck "mr" and "co" rules mean.....I have no clue what he's talking about.

MR = Max Rounds (so many rounds each half)

CO = Charge Only (only rounds won by the attacking team (Ts on de_ maps for example) are counted)

[JewToTheRescue]

CO owns MR

[RockSteady]
