The mindset you should have if you want to improve is "I'm gonna stop fucking up in that one way I always do". e.g. popping uber too early on badlands last. it can be something seemingly insignificant, but the aim is to cross items out on the list of things that you are doing wrong, one by one. When you stop making mistakes you can do things better. i don't know if any of this makes sense, i'm just trying to explain my mindset when i was really trying to improve aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Key thing, practise != playing

Not gonna lie i've never reviewed my own demo and i know a lot of good players who have never watched their own demos either, i've watched other players demos to see how they deal with certain situations but that's it. I recommend doing this if you know that you're making a mistake consistently but you aren't sure with how to deal with that.

Focus on one thing at a time, fix that mistake and move onto the next one. Change doesn't happen overnight. The truth that a lot of people don't want to admit is that tf2 is VERY mechancially dependent, so work on them. All the gamesense in the world won't save you if you just miss all of your shots or munch two directs because your movement is dogshit.

I really don't like this way of thinking, there isn't a prem decision making flowchart that if you follow will instantly make you a good player. A lot of this game is based on gut feeling (outside of wider team decisions i.e. where/when/how we will execute)

i'll do it purely to tilt turbo into oblivion

stark beat him, took a screenshot and posted it everywhere he could and refused to play him ever again. our team folded over it.

if valve were to host a tournament it wouldn't be the tf2 that you want to see. them adopting our abstraction of the game, i.e. class limits, whitelist etc., would be them basically admitting that their game is broken.

i'm not quitting for ow, it just isn't worth it to play anymore so i'd rather focus on uni.

shotgun is for pockets who don't believe in their scouts

I don't know why people keep throwing around this idea of having a valve sponsored major for tf2. If there was a tournament next month sponsored by Valve with say 100k prize pool it would be fucking awful. Skill level in tf2 is probably at its biggest low point and if we're being honest and viewing tf2 as a game, compared to cs/ow/dota etc. and not through our own biased perspective, is a complete fucking mess. A decent portion of weapons aren't allowed and most of the ones that are just aren't used because they're completely useless. Do you really think if Valve sponsored a major they would ban half of their own weapons from being used and impose class limits?

People here still seem to think of tf2 as our own corrupted version (whitelists, class limits etc.) of it when in reality that's not the case for 90% of people. On top of that TF2 mm is still in it's infancy and tbh doesn't seem to work very well, so imagine we have Joe Bloggs your average twitch user who sees this supposed 100k tournament and decided to jump into matchmaking and gets fucked by the crit a cola while having 20fps after waiting 20 minutes to find a game.

tldr fix the game then worry about tournaments/player base.

sideshow i will always love u and remember the heavenly night we spent together in copenhagen.

Real headline should be that stark and kaptain have switched back and presumably this means kaidus is coaching?????? Since as far as I know Raymon can't really maincall either.

btw raymon has/had god tier movement (my hero)

can't wait to get my irish passport and leave this shit hole

That's just down to top teams lack of creativity, can't fault production on that.

Bo4 grand finals was a bit weird but other than that no complaints
