Exciting news everyone! King of Speed Season 2 is starting TOMORROW! Tune in Feb 20th and 6:30pm CET. Check timezones!

We are kicking off with two new contenders - Desnamed and Eddak. Fear not, our previous Kings will have the chance to compete as we will be doing this weekly until end of March!

Here's the kicker. We haven't shared much about what new features might go into SpeedRunners, and during tomorrow's match we might just be testing one. Just maybe.

• Saturday Feb 20th
  
• 6:30pm CET (this is Germany/central european time)

Me & Tom will be providing tons of commentary before the match starts, so join in :) Yes, we got a new microphone.

[edit] CONGRATS Desnamed! VOD Coming soon!

Hi all!

We are bringing back King of Speed, the community's favorite sprinting event! We will host a series of livestreams with a dedicated server in Amsterdam and find out who's the real King of Speed. The event will run from February and into April.

But we need your help!

Me & Tom are down with hosting it in weird times so that people can join. So in order to help us, we need you to tell us the following things:

Me & Tom are down with hosting it in weird times so that people can join. So in order to help us, we need you to tell us the following things:

We released r49 today!

We added a "new" item, which is the Single Crate. It's basically a nerfed version of the Triple Crate item, which should be useful in Tournaments.

You can now select which items you'd like to appear in the Game Options tab in the level select menu. There's a couple of presets as well (default, ranked and tournament).

Aside from this, there aren't a lot of big changes in this one. We have, however, fixed some annoying issues related to workshop maps and we've improved the performance of the game some more.

Finally, we've updated the soundtrack - the music is now played by actual instruments, which sounds pretty awesome!

Another week, another SpeedRunners pro interview. Last time we talked to Decard Cain -- this week it's all about DistinctMadness, a SpeedRunners player who has seen plenty of ESL action over the months.

Let's do it, DistinctMadness-flavored.


DistinctMadness' YouTube channel

Quick-facts:

• Real name: Jacob
  
• Age: 16
  
• From: America
  
• League: Platinum League
  
• Favourite SpeedRunners character: Moonraker
  
• Favourite map: Night Club
  
• Favourite item: The Pulse/Shockwave

• How did you get into SpeedRunners?

I saw some videos on YouTube and was like, "Hey that's cool."

Didn't buy it for a while though, due to lack of funds. After Christmas that year, without informing those who would be paying, I bought the game and have been hooked ever since.

• How long have you been playing the game?

Since December 30th, 2013

• Are there any other SpeedRunners players who you class as your rivals?

As of now it'd be hard to say who is a rival, but the name that comes to mind is Unreal.

• How would you class your playing style?

Either stay just barely in the lead until you can win, or chill in the back and let the other players knock each other out

• How do you prepare for SpeedRunners tournaments?

I start warming up at least an hour early, while wearing a hoodie with the hood up. I also play specific maps that I believe will be picked more than others. Its all about the predictions.

• What's your advice for other players looking to go pro at SpeedRunners?

Whenever you run into somebody who is beating you in a game, instead of leaving because you can't win, keep playing until you start beating that player, no matter how long it takes. If you have to leave, try to add the person to play with later. Rage quitting gets you nowhere.
