Qck is pretty outdated now. a lot of people will recommend artisan mousepads, generally the hien or zero? I got a hien myself and it was a big upgrade over my old qck. Artisan mousepads are expensive and ship from japan so they take a long time to arrive. personally when it came time to replace my hien i bought a razer strider instead, and the razer strider actually feels almost the exact same for a fraction of the cost ($30) and shipping time, so i would recommend getting that one if you want a more modern pad.

i got a bunch of awesom manga

not everyone wants cups to replace seasons, but I think a lot more people agree that 8 weeks regular season + playoffs sometimes going for over a month drags on

I'm working on archiving every article right now, once I'm done with that I'll see if I can get them on comp.tf as well

unfortunately esea seems to block archive.org from working with its cloudflare settings or something, so I was using archive.ph which does work just fine

Hello my friends on teamfortress.tv,

I have recently become aware that the ESEA news articles that I grew up reading and considered to be "lost media" are still up; at least some of them. When you go on the ESEA website and go to the old news archives, most of the old articles are actually not shown. I thought this meant that they were removed, since the ESEA website removed basically all ties to TF2 years ago.

IF, HOWEVER, you go to the search bar on the top right and search for "TF2", then go to advanced search and filter to "News", you can see a bunch of the old power ranking and prediction articles. (link: https://play.esea.net/search?query=tf2&index=content)

These appear to be unsorted, or sorted in some random order of relevance, so it's hard to see what exactly is there, but not everything that I remember to exist shows up in the results. I suspect this is because they aren't showing up in the TF2 search result, maybe they didn't have it in the article anywhere.

basically, I want to have a backup of these articles so they don't get lost, and organize them in a way that makes sense and allows tf2 Historians to go back and read up on them. I don't know what would be the best way to do this yet, and I also want to make sure that all the articles are accounted for (hopefully none have actually been deleted). I'm making this thread for any other boomers who might want to go back and read them.

Bro is getting absolutely cooked in mge in every clip DO NOT follow this video you will have bot movement

Imo your movement should be the primary focus unless youre shooting dudes in the back or ubered. playing the right distance in fights to abuse any advantages you have is also important. you want to be able to aim at someone no matter what movement you are doing so just play the game while considering aim as the LAST factor and you will eventually develop the muscle memory you need for small accurate flicks.

^^ this applies unless you have some bad aiming habits, like doing big mouse spasms for every shot or not moving your mouse in straight lines. If you notice these try to minimize them and focus on controlled, straight line mouse movements on your flicks. IMO mouse control is not the primary reason why people miss shots in TF2 and reading your opponents movement takes far more practice, but mouse control is still sometimes a limiting factor for newer players

your so skibidi…

MAL has happycool and kev scout. please revamp the list

arf arf awoooooooooo~!!!!!

i encourage anyone who thinks elijah is legit to watch frag videos of the best aiming scouts in the game and go frame by frame and see how long it takes for them to react to jumps/surfs/strafe changes. no one has these clips legitimately
