#1 Occam's Razor LFP Main scout S6 in Recruitment (looking for players)

EDIT - think I already got someone, that was quick

This'll be the core of this roster's 2nd season in Main - we scrim Tues-Thurs and trend a bit older. We care mostly about feeling like we're playing well together as a team, but we are aiming to make playoffs this season.

LF a pocket or flank scout since hypnis can play either, here's our current roster:
Med: YariQwerty
Demo: Shears
Pocket: frg
Roamer: Soala
Scout: hypnis
Scout: ***you?***

Discord is the best way to reach out to me, find me at ShearsTF#8092

#1 Occam's Razor Team Frag Movie (RGL Main 6s S5) in Videos

Another season, another team frag movie. I tried to keep myself from obsessing over details too much on this one since I've got another, even bigger project in the works, the S5 Main DIVISION frag movie (coming soon™!)

https://youtu.be/8q6TEYktQlE

P.S. If you're wondering how I got the unique look in this video, the tl;dr is that I'm screen capturing with OBS at really high quality while using Reshade for a few specific effects. I'm planning to put out a tutorial on the process once I make the division frag movie.

#2 Democall: Main 6s RGL S5 in Videos

bumping this since I'm closing demo submissions in 2 days (i.e. midnight on May 1st)

I have about 70-80 demos already so it's going to be amazing, but I could definitely still use better representation across the division. If you haven't submitted anything yet, I'd love to have it! Best way to get the to me is to link here or DM me via discord at ShearsTF#8092.

#1 Is there a way to disable Macbook mouse accel? in Hardware

Mouse acceleration seems to come factory standard on Macbooks, is there any way to disable it? My teammate plays on a Macbook and has been trying to change this setting to release his full power in game but there's no obvious way to fix this. Has anyone else had to deal with this issue before? Any ideas?

I came here to post this tbh - any video with a title that sounds like a car used for drifting is quality medic surf content

#37 RGL S5 Post-Season Survey in TF2 General Discussion
zandastalemate:

stab demo ---> shoot medic for 102

he pretty much has to use because he drops to like one more shot. at least with revolver you have to hit 3-4 shots. if you succeed you have a demo pick AND fully uber ad. if you fail you have a demo pick and the med is 30hp. obviously you wont always get the stab but it's still pretty dumb

I agree with this line of thought but not the conclusion that it's "dumb". Personally I think having shorter stalemates and another option to break them is worth the cost of being mildly annoyed when enemy spies have a little more power to make a big play.

Also worth noting that (at least according to the tf2 wiki) DB only does 34 base damage, you have to be point blank to get the ramp up for a max of 51 damage on a noncrit shot, so medics are not necessarily dead to rights upon getting crit given that health regen exists.

nablawhy would u want to give a spy that gets a sap/stab even more value tho

those things are already crazy good

also ur just incentivizing a spy to stab a roamer or a similar low value pick if the other team is aware so he can try to cheese with the crits

I should probably clarify that I mean 6s specifically here, DB is still too strong in HL IMO because of the abundance of buildings to sap and overall chaos.

Sapping a gun in 6s has very low value honestly, you are both revealing that you are on spy and not actually killing anything. Best case scenario with that is you sap a gun to help your team get in on a last push, but in that case wouldn't you be better off on soldier or scout anyways? Is the ability to do 102 damage once going to make more than a small difference in the resulting teamfight?

If a spy stabs a scout/soldier in a 6s stalemate and gets away that's honestly a failure of the defending team to punish the spy play. Even if that happens, what then? The attackers take a 6v5 teamfight with a spy that can do 102 once and then be next to useless the rest of the fight?

On a different note, my unpopular opinion for the day is that diamondback is fine to unban.

"BUT HE CAN TWO SHOT MY MEDIC!"

Okay, the spy needs a kill or a sap to get the crit though. If your team is not on red alert and melting the spy after the first stab, the diamondback is not the issue here.

Will it make spies a little more effective? Probably, yeah. But when spies are effective they break stalemates. You're telling me a 5 minute sniper duel is better gameplay than that? Personally I wouldn't mind buffing spy a bit.

Anyone know the command for changing round timer? Some of us want to try the 5 min round timer out in scrims so we can have an actual opinion on it

#5 heat wave - a tftv community frag video in Videos

you had great frags and high production quality, thoroughly enjoyed it!

If you want to keep learning and making more videos, my personal recommendation would be to experiment with different Field of View settings for your smooths/cines and with figuring out how to make transitions between clips feel more smooth and natural

alright if my team had shut up when i told them to i would have heard the med walk by!!

could have been better camerawork from me tbh, I'm not sure the viewers understood in the moment that your screen had to be 100% wall to make that spot work
