I've been using the same DA for 5 years. I have had some break (sadly the coveted 1800dpi kind) but this one (3500dpi) has been going strong. I have tried many mice and always end up going back to the Death Adder. Nothing seems quite so crisp.

This is cool news.

so is this basically like Gamebattles?

I don't understand what this is.

2v2 Gamebattles on MW2 was the shit

This could be very good for small scenes that don't have support from big e-sports leagues and the tournaments are all organized manually.

aka South-american scene

This one's for EU https://arena.razerzone.com/tournaments/details/397/

Looks like they're using NA rule sets even for EU.

Their KOTH goes to 9 rounds (5-4).

GENERAL SETTINGS AND CHARACTER RESTRICTIONS
Team Size = 6 Players
Minimum Players = 5v6 or 5v5
Random Damage = Disabled
Critical Damage = Disabled
Taunts = Disabled
Max Scout = 2
Max Soldier = 2
Max Pyro = 2
Max Demoman = 1
Max Heavy = 1
Max Engineer = 1
Max Medic = 1
Max Sniper = 2
Max Spy = 2

so any team can join this thing? you can have an invite team and an open team in the same thing?

I think it's safe to say so, yeah. They don't have any players yet so there's no need to separate them into groups / divs.
I don't think any Invite or Open teams would want to play 9 rounds of KotH though

Hey all,

i'm on the Arena team. TeamFortress 2 is indeed 6v6.

You do not need Razer Comms, but of course we encourage it.

We're still looking for some TF2 admins to run some tournaments. Happy to set you guys up to get get you started. Ideally head over to the Razer Arena page: http://www.razerzone.com/arena to send in an application. I'll look out for your application.

Any feedback on rules are also greatly appreciated. I must admit, I'm not a TF2 player myself (dont hate), but we want to listen to the Community and allow you to do whatever you want to do with the platform.

Any questions, hit me up.

Best Regards

Do you have any plans to support any kind of Mumble - Razer Comms integration? I can imagine a dummy/bot client that echoes what is said between channels, so that people who refuse to use Razer Comms can still use Mumble and communicate on the same wavelength. Having any kind of interoperability would definitely soften the stigma that Comms has!

no whitelist but taunts disabled?

Wow, another day of waking up to great news. @_@ Really cool to see this happen.

wow +1

..

I've had mine since 2012 ??

my first deathadder only lasted me a year. this second ones been going strong though.
I feel like razer quality control isnt very good though, seems to be a common theme among their various products.

i have never had a deathadder but 11/10 on the goliathus speed

Razer is like the only company I know that does small and light gaming mice.
Been happy with my Salmosa which I had for few years until I spilled a drink on it and I like my Abyssus.

Regardless this is the path to esports for TF2 please TLR nR [R] 4G 20b BFNS PICK THIS UPPPP

YOU MAY EVEN GET INTERNATIONALS

this is really good news, thank you razer :)

Huh, they're adding CTF to the tournaments, that's cool I guess

I had a deathadder here aswell. I've had it for about 9 months now and it's still pretty great.
(beside a few months ago it started scrolling by itself.But it's working normal now.)

Awww mannn.... so bummed I can't make at least the first 3 tournaments, as I'll be out of town all of next week. w/e, I'll be sure to pick up as soon as I'm back!

ITT: People talking about their razer mouses and not the razer tournament

This is super cool, and awesome to see that we have someone from Razer to take community questions. Could REALly help some smaller tournaments. *paging kevinispwn*
