CEVO Interviews Pwnage.TV

March 24th, 2009 by CEVO|Celone

In this edition of CEVO Frontline we take a look at Pwnage.tv and its owner Dustin Jackson. Dustin Jackson, an E-Sport veteran of 9 years, and somewhat of an E-Sports entrepreneur, starting his own Ventrilo company and then eventually, Pwnage.tv has plans to expand his latest creation, Pwnage.tv, as well as expand the community. We ask him exactly what these plans will be, and what he thinks of the recent state of the CS:Source community, and E-Sports in general.

If you could please start off by introducing yourself.
My name is Dustin Jackson 20 years of age grew up in the Philadelphia area, but originally from LA. Been gaming for past 12 years competitive for the past 9 and started my first gaming related company 2 years ago and now I own PwnageTV, LLC. and am looking to bring together a large community based off of community ideas and input

Pwnage.tv has no shortage of events happening lately with the Redemption tournament going on as well as the regular seasons of 1.6. Do you plan on taking on any other events or projects in the near future?
Well right now we are in the process of releasing a bracket based free tournament website that allows teams to play in tournaments for whatever game they play and win stuff at no cost. As far as keeping our calender full CEVO is doing a great job with that haha and we appreciate the help.

Speaking of the Redemption tournament, did you expect things to run the way they have been? Most of the ‘top teams’ were taken out early due to harboring cheaters in their ranks, leaving this event wide open.
Well no one ever expects a professional team to have cheaters on their team. But in the years that i’ve played online you learn that not everyone is legit and it kinda ruins the game for lots of us. But overall it hurts the younger kids that are hoping to grow up and be professional gamers when they find out the only way they can get their is cheating just like the people they watch today.

As a broadcasting company, do you often come across teams that seem ‘too good’?
Its not usually something that sticks out in our minds from what we see at the pace we see it, it looks as professional as the rest of them. After review and maybe a couple replays we might notice sketchy stuff, but our job is to provide good casting not decide who cheats and who doesn’t

Now that many teams are out of the running, who do you think will come out on top?
To be honest I’m not sure and I don’t want to predict anything quite yet. We wish the best of luck to all the teams and hopefully our viewers get to see some good matchups

Now that the CGS has come and gone, so to it seems has the Source scene, what is your stance on the current situation the Source community faces and where do you think we will see the scene in 1 years time?
As far as the community, it won’t go anywhere. CEVO, ESEA, MLG are all chipping in some type of support to keep it alive.

With new games coming out such as QL, SF4 and SCII soon to release beta keys, will pwnage.TV change focus? Possibly cover something outside of its regular realm and branch off into a dueling game or possibly a fighter or RTS?
Well expanding is always on our minds, we have plans to include QL, SC2 and more in our broadcasting. But we promise not to lose focus on the games most of our fans love.

Pwnage.tv still has many of its site sections ‘under construction’, when can we expect these new additions to be completed? Also, what other expansion ideas should we look out for?
Well, if you’ve been tuning in weekly each one of the parts of the website that are under construction are new to the website. We are planning on releasing our tournament website near the end of march, and also finishing up our upgrades on our regular site by the 2nd week in april

The North American E-Sports scene is pretty stagnant at this point, where do you see things heading in the near future of 1-2 years?
Hopefully now that ESL has expanding to the US, our country will become more competitive and active than it currently is.

Any last words?
I’d like to thank the community for their support and hopefully we give back to them more than they give to us. Along with great thanks to our sponsors www.Axis-Pro.com and support from CEVO. Thanks again Cameron

Interview conducted by CEVO|Carson. A big thank you goes out to Mr. Jackson for taking the time to participate in this interview.
