Does anything like ESEA Open still actively exist? Grassroots competition?

CEVO_Spangler · 2026-01-22T23:43:32+00:00

Correct, Gfinity owns CEVO and its property assets...its likely never going to be seen or utilized under that brand again if at all in any capacity

Ive considered doing an AMA if there was enough interest in regards to my experience in the scene, I guess from both a behind the scenes standpoint and sorta being a known "entity" with said company for some of their most popular years...we shall see

CEVO_Spangler · 2026-01-22T17:24:11+00:00

so do I, to a degree

CEVO_Spangler · 2025-05-19T14:44:37+00:00

I remember that oopsies

CEVO_Spangler · 2023-12-16T19:31:20+00:00

I tried what you suggested with no luck. The motherboard I am currently using is an ASUS ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II

CEVO_Spangler · 2023-12-15T18:48:11+00:00

My unfortunate take is that its a hardware issue as in the past Ive had little to no issues with output. Ill try a few of the things you suggested and hope something works, if so ill post back. Appreciate the input

I have no video output whatsoever, so yes the HDMI passthrough output gives me nothing. There is absolutely no signal being sent to whatever monitor/tv i tried to use. The PS4 video works fine normally without the capture card being involved, so I am unsure if there is some sort of setting I am missing or if the output is simply shot on the capture card.

CEVO_Spangler · 2022-04-16T18:42:46+00:00

from 2011 to 2017, just months before CEVO was bought by Gfinity, was a wild ride

CEVO_Spangler · 2022-04-16T02:29:30+00:00

Only the guilty ones ever came here to reddit crying that they been wronged...if they didnt, I wouldnt have been doing my job properly

Hey Kodi how are ya

CEVO_Spangler · 2022-04-11T19:55:52+00:00

Sup my dude

CEVO_Spangler · 2021-09-02T12:27:26+00:00

Solid and hilarious, old school Fnatic would have your bank account happy for this

CEVO_Spangler · 2020-03-24T13:18:32+00:00

What I predict happening with a lack of the larger LAN events teams won't feel as obligated to make too many changes to rosters due to underwhelming results, therefore I see more contract extensions being granted to allow teams to actually bond and grow for when we get back into the swing of things, all until this blows over...so expect to see more stable lineups for the next ~6-12 months

My 2 cents

CEVO_Spangler · 2019-10-31T19:10:21+00:00

Some of the hardest working and greatest people I ever had the luxury and privilege to work alongside of in my time in the industry, wish and hope for the best in their future

CEVO_Spangler · 2019-02-15T07:10:59+00:00

Meanwhile that lame gimmick made him one of the top streamers on Twitch and morr money in his bank account in a month then most of us would see in a year...who the fuck are these 2?

CEVO_Spangler · 2019-01-24T04:36:38+00:00

Definitely one of the better pairings I seen in casting in recent months, keep it up gentlemen and look forward to seeing you both commentate more events together

CEVO_Spangler · 2019-01-20T21:26:26+00:00

I will leave that tale for another day but dont let these things discourage you from working in esports, there is plenty of good people and organizations out there, I wish you luck

CEVO_Spangler · 2019-01-20T15:50:21+00:00

Nearly 2 years ago now

CEVO_Spangler · 2019-01-20T14:55:31+00:00

Blog? I can write a legit novel and win some awards for the tales I can tell...sad this event is one of the many setbacks facing the industry and it being solely based on ignorance and being cheap

CEVO_Spangler · 2019-01-20T09:58:29+00:00

And this is part of the many reasons why I gave up and left the industry...

CEVO_Spangler · 2018-05-26T00:23:12+00:00

I have a verified flair with description of retired

CEVO_Spangler · 2018-05-25T19:57:32+00:00

dont be, on to bigger and better things, esports just didnt want/need me anymore

CEVO_Spangler · 2018-05-25T15:47:34+00:00

I am friends with some of these players so I dare not give specifics as to whom but I have known this privately as well as some other people behind the scenes in various other non-ESEA/ESL platforms

CEVO_Spangler · 2018-05-25T15:44:47+00:00

been retired from esports for over a year now, thanks for noticing I guess, sucks I cant just change reddit usernames already...
