Although there was no stage and I do see the appeal to a stage, I personally really enjoyed having all the people who wished to watch us sit behind us as I could feel their energy so much more when even something small happened like getting a med kill or a clutch last hold.
I know that everyone will get to watch from in front of said stage but the hall was split evenly viewers wise behind both teams and hearing both teams erupt with their fans behind them at the same was sensational so I don't see no stage as a bad thing.

The extra round timer is lovely but I think having pauses and keeping it within the time limit allocated to the pause itself I think is the best way to continue with it, two minutes for the pause feels plenty enough as it won't completely diminish any momentum one team has. It's also useful time for the team with said momentum because you can try to think of what's coming next, what different strategy is going to be played, etc.

Is your training centred around strength and conditioning, cardio, endurance, heavy weights?

There's a lot of stuff un-fun to play against, that is not the point that should be made here. I don't complain against something that I consider un-fun, I prioritise adapting to it.

Be quiet you dense mong, I only want the opinion of good demos.

1. It honestly looks like he's actually running forward to buff a soldier the second jay jumps so again that's a mistake on his part but the lack of denial at the choke allows jay a free bomb in the first place. He is effectively in the same position as his scout here as well so it's gifting a free bomb for Jay. Sniper wouldn't be known about if he hides on mid and runs down the left side as no one is finding any forward information on the setup but that's not the case here, I'm just showcasing what could happen based on the same scenario.
2. So in what way is it the market gardener being op then? This a team fault through and through because if the attacking demo syncs spam with soapy in this situation if he goes for the rocket over the mg, he can easily be dropped the same with sync spam.
3. My bad, I didn't see the 0 rocket part however with the position skeez is in, all Jay has to do is take time to reload two rockets which evidently in this clip he has more than enough time to do. The lack of risk is due to his team not playing around him but this game as a whole wasn't very focused around habib/skeez, I am unaware if you watched the vod of it but it felt very flank heavy and these two were left out as bait in a sense.

These are poor choices and if you watch all these clips it shows,
1. LOLGUY is just spamming a and d instead of being in a position is viable for him to not be forced and actually see the soldier coming. This isn't mg being op because a sniper could easily peak him from cafe like this as there is no one denying the choke and it's a free headshot similarly to the mg kill.
2. Plaidium had a decent position but his scout/demo/lack off class?? failed to kill a soldier who is in by himself with no support just as soapy had to hit the bhop as well for this to work. This again isn't the weapon being op, defending team had more than enough time to kill him but their setup was shit and their scout equally as so and the bhop mechanic is just a good display of skill.
3. You honestly believe this was good movement? Guys holding s in a straight line. Of course he is going to get a kill on the medic like this but again Jay if he's using rockets here can easily just land on his head and get a simple two rocket. Similarly again, there just isn't a scout/enough classes around the medic.

If I played against a soldier (gink) who put time and effort into beggars bazooka and made the game his bitch, I wouldn't complain it's overpowered, I'd be thinking on how to adapt to what is going on. The good spoon players do exactly this by practising and practising in order to develop good timing/situations where the spoon can be viable. The same goes for paintrain, it's only viable in certain situations.
Does nubbi hit every spoon he goes for? No, because he adapts to what happens, sometimes he will go for one but a large majority miss.

Your argument over equal chances of winning is incorrect, there is plenty of times to do a counter sac, push out when the attacking team sends in a sac as well, if you're a team that's on the ball, you can do it before the attackers even attempt their own play e.g using uber ad, pyro sniper push out, syncing with a spy play, coordinated aggression on a lobby area, list goes on mate. Again, the second clip has no defensive offclasses so they played into Soapy's hands.

The spoon isn't op, it's just lack of thoughts/gamesense of what is going to happen and who you are playing against. It can be countered very easily and this one of the things I tell people who want mentoring, adapt to who you play, pay attention to what they do and use it against them.

Simiarly, what mustard linked previously about I said about the iron bomber still stands, the weapon isn't overpowered, it's a viable way for demo to stay relevant in this current game and not all demos can still put up the numbers/impact required even with this weapon. If all demos where able to drop 10k every game and make everyone's life a misery, then I'd agree but the fact is, I can play against all the prem demos and see mediocre numbers/impact with this "overpowered" weapon and outcome would have fuck all change if they were using stock pipes/loose cannon.

Track bike or commuting?

I do like the idea of this, not so much the fact you gain a point for holding mid because then you just need a strong mid to turtle but I do like the shorter round timers. A lot of teams at the moment seem so afraid to trying anything and even prem teams take upwards of three minutes to set-up just a single sac. Unless the plan is to win off the enemy team falling asleep then it's mind boggling. Setting up plays does not seem to be as complicated as it sounds. Setting up a soldier sac play takes twenty seconds at best (get everyone buffed, spot med, relay information and spam towards medic while soldier goes in) and the faster you are, the more unpredictable you are as a team.

A problem I see with teams on last holds is they rely too much on a sentry, I understand when they have uber dis ad then a sentry is no brainer but if you have equal ubers and the attackers haven't done anything for almost a minute, there is no harm in taking a pyro/sniper and slow pushing. It's low risk/high reward or even a coordinated door spam to distract for a spy. Again these are just examples out of many but they are effective ways to get off last point without needing to just make a bunker with a sentry.
The main point I think I am trying to make is teams shouldn't be afraid to lose a point/round for trying something, it's meant to happen and you only improve off making mistakes then analysing why it went wrong.

Where is this a whole lot of people did not like the plugins? I really didn't notice any difference with this gunboat change as top level soldier comes down to actually using effective positioning with your bombs. It didn't give me/nubbi/kaptain a valid reason to land on your face unless you were out of position.

It is not "insanely easy" to just bomb into a scout and secure an easy kill on him without dying for it/not getting the kill, what even is this logic?

You're saying you played against soldiers who did a lot of stupid shit and got away with it, care to give examples? You're only playing against 14 different soldiers in prem and with the experience/team you have, surely you've tried to analyse and adapt too it?

You also mention in your previous post that soldiers are bombing and doing 150-230 damage and jumping away but this is what was practiced before, if you can't kill a soldier in that time frame then your focus fire isn't there or your team is not positioned to stop a sac/bomb in this way, or even you aren't positioned well enough to deal with it.

I'm not saying your points aren't valid but from a personal experience with what I played with against you and other teams, these don't seem like accurate criticisms off the plugin itself.

Correct me if I am wrong as well but that was never the intention off the plugin anyway, it was to mitigate stupid situations where a scout can w+m1 into you in a tight choke and still win because you've taken too much self damage.
