2022 was the year the competitive Quake scene woke up again after what felt like an eternity of offline absence. Players came together again to compete in the game they love and to share unforgettable experiences with their fans and the community. External organizers took the matter in their own hands, stepped up and provided top quality events that attracted players from all over the world.
These are my top 10 favorite pictures of the year. Enjoy.
