within this image gur link: [img]https://imgur.com/9O3oY2R[/img] lies my newest theory regarding the future of competitive " team fortress" formats, and the like.

i believe that, one day, team fortress 2 will DWINDLE in numbers. the poor competitive population will have to share their servers, but they wont want to, oh no, "how dare those filthy SPY MAINS slow down the game!" they will say.
"how dare those filthy SOLDIER MAINS remove my class!" they will say.

when you scrape the bottom of the barrel you wont have fingernails to scratch eachother with, you should know this you rats. you will have to reach a painful, terrible, agreement, you will need, a compromise. and you will realize, there is a common link, a beautiful, unbeloved, unappreciated overlap in the venn diagram, his name?: King Of The Hill.

though perhaps not the most fun gamemode, and perhaps not the most class compatible gamemode, it strikes a balance in a way i can only describe as "spicyyyyyyyy" and it may be your best bet, in the future, there will be no 18 players.
in the final evolution there will be 12 players, a class limit of 1, we will not have sniper, we will be playing koth, steel, and gravel pit, it will be called "super proffessionalander" and we'll all love it, and you'll thank me later...
