eI don't understand why all this butthurt is happening who cares its HL even if theyre invite in 6s that shouldn't mean much for HL since most of the garbage players in HL think they can play high open/IM from a season of plat on pyro.

http://puu.sh/1g6fm
Just cheer up and play for hats and medals like everyone else in HL

Not sure why people are -fragging this. I don't see a problem with it... heck I agree with it from what I've seen of lower level HL players.

dashneralfainfinite you are the NA version of hildreth
hildreth does what he does to get under people's skins and rattle people. He is not actually THAT horrible of a person.

infinite believes the shit he's spewing.

one is much worse than the other

I think he's talking about hildreths role as an etf2l hl admin, aka a fun-hating monster!

@ Platinum:

I remember when you were [GD]PlatinumShadow, making your name known just starting out in STA 8v8 league. It's pretty lame you feel so lofty now as to label all highlander players as being terrible compared to yourself. Yea, I am sure you and TLR could destroy UGC HL if you "tried". That's not the point I was trying to make. You've been playing TF2 constantly for the past 4 years at least. Tons of scrims per week, lans, etc. It's like a 12th grader comparing their mathematics skills to an 8th grader just taking algebra I. Highlander is a new and up and coming format which has approximately 1 year under it's belt. It has tons of new players which of course do not compare to someone who has been playing the game constantly for 4 years. You would be much more productive trying to encourage these players than to belittle them. If you were smart, you would embrace highlander because it is only going to help 6v6 grow out of is stagnation.

More personally, I remember asking you to help out a team I played on in UGC as demoman. Instead of trying, you decided to jump around trying to caber everyone making a fool of yourself and us. Your arrogance kept up with your reputation while we didn't make playoffs. You laughed about it while we lost. Good for you.

The reason I call out the arrogance of certain invite players is because most of the people on this forum are too afraid of being minus fragged by the elite circlejerk than to call out the consistent arrogance towards anything other than 6v6.

Let's all focus on what's important: making TF2 an approachable game for all players regardless of the number of years they have played or how they feel the game should be played (6v6 vs 9v9). Let the - frags begin.

@ Infinite:

What does anything you just said have to do with your hostile attack on TLR and his HL team? Regarding your "points": Yes I tried to help your highlander team because you asked. I'm sorry that my jumping and cabering didn't live up to your standards of what tryhard highlander strats should be, but it's a legit tactic to drop a medic in highlander mode before your team pushes out. You can ask the medics this season that I've played against if they think it's embarrassing. I don't seem to remember anyone on your team bitching like you are now about me trying to help your team have some sort of communication center rather than you running around at 450 into blaze and losing a 1v1 to an unbuffed scout, screaming about how we have to focus fire their scout. Did you want me to cry tears of pain that your team lost highlander playoffs? I laughed because I was having fun.

I don't discourage or attack highlander players for playing it, I play it myself for fun. I think it's a breeding ground for potential 6's players, but it can't ever be taken extremely seriously as a mode because there's no way there will be a lan that caters to 9 player teams. It just won't happen.

The only people I attack are ignorant people like you who act like they invented the mode and any word against what you think is right is blasphemy. Again, get over yourself and enjoy the league. Don't ruin it.

infinite it's fucking pathetic that you keep saying there's an "elite circlejerk" of players here that will minusfrag everything you say regardless of content, and that people giving you props on the ugc forum is totally fair and balanced and not a circlejerk itself. let's list the reasons why each forum is supposedly a circlejerk for a certain viewpoint:

ugc forums:
-everyone there plays hl
-you are an admin there
-you and all the other admins all played on teams together and were some of the first teams in hl
-many of the lower level players have been mentored by some admins or just look up to them without having ever talked to them

this forum:
-presumably, everyone plays 6s

the problem with that? ALMOST EVERYONE HERE IN THIS THREAD PLAYS HL. this is a fuckin highlander discussion forum. the only reason you think there is a "circlejerk" of people against you here is because you try to carry yourself the same way you do on the ugc forums, where there is an actual circle jerk FOR you and the other admins, and get called out for being a cunt here.

other ugc admins and hl players, many less well-known or influential than you as well as some on equal footing (hein) have posted on here and have not been minus fragged to shit. want to know why? because they aren't assholes.

Highlander may not *be* a pub, but the classes used, the (nonexistent) weapon restrictions, the playstyles and the pacing are all very remniscent of a pub. This is be a good thing as it has allowed HL to grow as big as it has gotten.

I'm not looking for a fight, but HL is more like organized pubbing than not imo.

Honestly, as stupid as the wrangler is, without it engie would probably be pretty much irrelevant in almost every gametype except for payload and A/D and ctf.

Not saying it should be allowed, but that's probably the main reason behind it being allowed.

I think you mean Wrench/Jag engie (Gunslinger engie would operate just fine without his inflatable heavies) but regular engie would be used where he is now, just without a "secondary" that makes his sentry into a tank/death machine.

#119 It's done quite often (not so much on badwater cause the normal roof spot is just way stronger), but often on gravel pit. The guy that used to play engie for our team once wrangeler jumped himself up to the roof on gpit B because our demo and soldier were dead, and someone had to kill that enemy soldier on the roof.

I had a lot of fun in the preseason when we faced mTs a lot. I think it's fun playing against invite 6s players in a highlander setting. They DM like beasts compared to most people. Makes it more fun than highlander used to be, where you could get away with just being stupidly aggressive as pyro all solo and still do decent.

I think it's been good. I can't wait to play against mTs tonight on Granary. I enjoy a challenge. I hope they'll try to make it one. Can't wait to play against GG. Etc.

Also no one in platinum really likes infinite as far as I know.
