Source 2's impact on the competitive scene? | Double Doors #17

With Source 2 right around the corner, what will it mean for the esports landscape of the game? Do Majors need larger prize pools? Do we need an International like Dota 2? We discuss the news itself and then speculate what, if any, changes Valve will bring to the esport along with Source 2.

Moving on with more NA centric topics, we look at the current ESL Pro League with the disappointing performances from Evil Geniuses and Complexity in the groups. Then closer to home, Nouns have been doing well recently with qualifications to the RMR and IEM Dallas, but can they keep it up? ESL Challenger League playoffs are almost here and ESL Impact kicked off the other day, so we look at what's been happening there. Finally, we talk briefly about the new ESEA Cash Cup Circuit.
