try playing a pug before or mgeing to get your senses and aim warmed up that's what i'd recommend.

osu

15 minutes of warsow or quake or something similar, 5 minutes of jump maps, 5 minutes of tr_flinger or tr_rocketshooting or similar. Try hard in pregame soapdm.

Usually not all that though, because I get told we have a scrim 30 seconds before it

i usually play a game of dota and forget that i have to play tf2 so i tell them to get a ringer

Play videogame -> Get better at videogame ?

usually i turn on my heater to warm up; sometimes a cup of cocoa.

be a huge nerd like me and never take a day off

I usually notice my dm start to significantly suffer if I try to play more than like 12 hours a week

i just show up, click on people, and complain about how bad everyone on my team is
(i play medic)

the more you practice the less your aim will suffer between gaps of not playing
(if practicing aim in a videogame is anything like practicing an instrument)
in the end (consistent, productive) practice can only significantly reduce how much your aim suffers when you come back to play

15 minutes of quake will help you adjust quickly
also tr_newbots which hasn't been mentioned yet

for medic i pretty much don't need to warm up

soldier i go mge for a little bit or jump

surfing gets me in a chill mindset to play

Civ V

i have a config that sets up a 6v6 game on badlands with tf bots

tons of flicking in mge/dm.

.

it's nothing compared to a real game unless you do some weird waypoint tweaking but still.

I dunno man. I once got a triple airshot on Bot01 and that was the greatest day of my life ever.

For warming up, I generally play on dm/mge server for like 20 minutes. Since you also play sniper, I'd probably recommend you playing pug/mix/lobby, because sniper isn't really great class for both mge and dm.

If you really feel like you are terrible at aiming, you can just spend some time on tr_walkway with bots moving in random patterns. (Or just on any offline practice map pretty much)

i haven't used it for a while so i don't know if it still works as well, but once they're in you kick a bot with the class you want to play with tf_bot_kick <name> and rup

i use a bunch of .nav files from http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1080451 for some other maps like snakewater too

The vague message here is that he plays Badlands mid all day, every day.

I play soldier in a goldrush pub until we get all 6.

I also rather enjoy having a sugary beverage too.

tr_rocket_shooting2, jump maps, tr_newbots - ultimate roamer warmup

if you could teach a bot to rollout to mid
this would be amazing

one day the iseries finals will just be eu bots vs na bots

tr_walkway

Fez, dota - basicly every game thats not tf2. I play medic - before match a bit run thru the map and I can play.

EDIT: i say my soldier to jump on mid n shit. Warmsup the rocket surfs n shit
