| Newerth Savage League : Season III February 23, 2009, 06:47:52 pm by DarkStorm |
The much anticipated Season III of the NSL has arrived! While not officially underway, the time has come for all registered clans to finally clash once again on brand new, uncharted battlefields. The exhibition rounds will begin immediately and you can see your opponent for the first week as well as the map you will be playing on in the NSL section. On the topic of maps, a very special thanks goes out to Sheepish of the Evolved Clan. Being the sole responder to the call for a new map list to bring Savage competition to a higher standard in the XR era, the NSL currently has four maps available for Season III. They do need testing however, which is the reason for an exhibition segment this time around. During the exhibitions, it is imperative that you provide feedback on the maps! Please refer to the link below on how to submit bugs and/or balance concerns to the NSL for review. We're always looking for more maps! So please if you have a cool idea that you think would work well in a competitive setting, don't hesitate to submit it! Refer to this link for details on how to submit a map to the NSL Administration. If you're ever curious on exactly where the NSL is or it's status at any given time, you can always refer to the homepage of the NSL section here on Newerth for a live update. Furthermore, please refer here to see the current changes to the NSL from previous seasons. Let the slaughter begin! |

| Butterfly, a member of the DeMo clan, has created a new professional high definition video, that shows his skill at Savage 1 as well as the Newerth universe.
