Just a heads-up Kellth, most readers of this website has a lot experiences under our belts and your videos, while ok-ish when aimed at new player with absolute zero clues about tf2, doesn't really offer anything to the rest of us.

#6 - he is just asking for advice. Only because we have more hours then he probably does - that doesn't mean he is not welcome here.

This is not a scrim I suppose, i'm guessing tf2 lobby. While I understand you wanted to pick a match where you look in a good light, completly lobby stopming other team will tell you nothing because they won't punish your mistakes. In comp you want to use mumble for team communication. Also, get a new hud. Health numbers are pretty much requirement.

From beginning - don't parade yourself in sniper lines, you do that very often. You weren't punished for that now, but you will if you'll continue.

Your uber on red didn't do anything. you want to bodyblock them or ideally get a pyro uber and airblast them. Pyro was roaming a lot, so that wasn't much you could do.

3:52 You went around corner first, non-covered without any support and had to pop. Then you drop down for pyro and you both went chasing frags, that got you killed. It would be great pop if you'd just stayed there and didn't let them get close to sentry, then fall back safely.

4:40 - don't go there. That's just pure overextending. Although at this point it doesn't matter.

6:48 - No. Don't pop out of spawn, your uber was off before you even got to ledge. Heavy can get killed, nobody cares because he will respawn in like 5 seconds anyway. That's why you should buff soldier and demo especially, then heavy and pyro and send them to sentry to take down engie, medic or any other pick. If they get it you have big advantage, if not you can push few seconds later when they respawn (some teams send multiple waves of these suicides for picks).

Don't push cart if you don't have to, there cold be sniper at the end of tunnel. Your soldier got a gun and some other picks, which pretty much won you first point and then match. You didn't have uber at the end of the tunnel, if they'd drop on you - you'd be dead.

https://www.youtube.com/user/adamskyride?feature=watch
mge videos are a place where u dont get assholes like me and get tips
edit after i realized how much of dumb shit i was to a player just wanting to improve:i guess ill be a productive member of the community and support anti bullying cause i feel like a dick sorry about shitposting in your threads trust me i was as bad you are when i had twice the hours as you and did retarded shit all the time but i fixed my shortcoming by watching povs and members of this forum cant give you any advice that cant be found by watching youtube videos and searching for guides. sorry man didnt mean to stomp on ur gaming dreams by being an asshole just keep practicing and ull wreck faggots lke me in a videogame and be able to call me shit when u get better, just watch povs nd ye thats it #trollsremorse
also dont lobby play in irc pugs like#tf2.mix.nahl players in lobbies are shit and u cant learn anything from them also irc pugs have more communication via mumble most of the time so the environment is generally more productive and realistic to an actual match. Lobbies are good for

and learning the absolute basics of the highlander format but about as useless as my limp dick for anything else.
+ushould post this thread in the mentoring section of the forum maybe some fat sweaty nerd with 2000+ hours could share their wisdom with you
also extra edit ppl would be able to help you more if you included the communication u had withthe team in the lobby, even if there was a microscopic amount of that
yet again im sorry for being a faggot, i felt that i could hide under a guise nd be an asshole to a newish player bc that's what anonymity does to you

Why did you post that autism video? I cant tell if it was an accident or if you were being a dick. Not funny

EDIT:so that this post isnt totally useless, do exactly what #7 said. The only reason you will get bashed for having this game play is because it was a lobby where most people are either dicking around, or very new to competitive TF2. Its really hard to see how good or bad of a player you are off of this because as he said, you wont get punished for a lot of the mistakes you make.

This is not about you but about improving my skill. No one here should be learning anything from the video. It is just a gameplay that i uploaded so that i could get some feedback on.

Thank you very much. Good advice i will try to stay with my Demoman/soldier and not expose myself to sniper shots.

KellthWhere should i go then to get a real actually game that people would care about

Are you on a UGC Highlander team? If not, try to join one. Doesn't necessarily matter what level it is, as long as you are playing in actual matches against good (or better) teams. As the others were saying, there's not much to criticize when one team rolls the other. That is what happens in TF2Lobby majority of the time.

When you get more comfortable with your medic mechanics, hop into mIRC and join the Highlander pug channel.

9s (Highlander) - #tf2.pug.nahl

I'd also suggest looking at the Mentoring section of this forum. In addition, as a reference point, look up a higher level demo from a high lander match and study the medic mechanics. Positioning is half the battle. Start with that.

Do you every play on surf maps? Movement is important and sometimes a good surf can save a round :)

Consider possibly changing your hud, just so you can see exactly how much health your target has.

Unless you want to be like shade.

heads up for when you are recording videos, consider using a push to talk button for your recording software so we can hear what you are saying.

also lobbies are terrible. there's a channel for newer highlander players called #tf2.mix.nahl on gamesurge (IRC) that you can connect to and add up to. it requires the voip software mumble and is a lot better than a lobby.
