ABOUT

evlTV is bringing you live coverage from the DESERTBASH mini-BASH LAN at the Intel Ocotillio plant in Phoenix, AZ. Specifically we'll be covering the TF2 tournaments' grand final match. Casted by Getawhale, Row, and Kinch on camera. The tournament is double elimination style, and UGC 6s rules and whitelists will be used.

DESERTBASH has operated LAN events in Arizona since 2006 and is an official Intel Lanfest chapter. DESERTBASH is a non-profit organization and donates all proceeds to Child's Play. The team hopes to bring back its mega 100+ player events in the near future, so definitely check out the LANFest links below and signup for the newsletter if you're interested in more information.

Our friend Waffle_Haus is also at DESERTBASH and will be streaming most of the day, so be sure to check out her stream!

**While we will have some evlTV staff at the event, the stream may be cancelled if there are issues getting the STV publicly accessible to our remote production crew.

Any idea as to when the big DESERTBASH is going to be? I'd love to go this year and it would be great to see more TF2 presence there

AFAIK There won't be any TF2 comp teams here, but it should still be a cool game. We're streaming to try and get the word out about DESERTBASH, as it has the potential to be similar to a GXL but on the west coast in the near future. This is one of their smaller quarterly events, only 52 gamers. We're hoping to bring a bigger event soon. Its tricky to find a venue for 100+ people on a non-profit budget, but we are optimistic :)

We are really having a blast watching this. It's 6v6 but they are not competitive players.. they are running all sorts of different classes and weapon loadouts.. and honestly everyone's just having an awesome time. It's really cool to just watch these players be at LAN and just go for it 6v6 with little to no rules.

Come support players who are just having an awesome time playing at LAN!
