Boomer: If you read my detection of boomer back in the days of gotfrag, you'd notice I was really excited about boomer. A few seasons ago, boomer showed a lot of promise in terms of DM, smarts, and overall game knowledge. I think boomer has improved a lot since the days of his previous detection, but I don't think he really brings enough to the table compared to the other pockets. If you take a look at ESEA Lan, it was evident that boomer was just getting overshadowed by platinum. Obviously, it's a team game, so it's hard to say "oh platinum was out damaging him he must be way better", but it's definitely something to note. I recommend trying to lead your team more, rather than relying on blaze's plays and cleaning up afterwards. You're a strong player, but you don't always make the effort to put your skills to the best use. If you see a situation where you know you'll come out ahead if you just take the risk to initiate, don't be afraid to take it.
9.2/10

Sorry, never heard of you.

EDIT: Pick a different name, it's bothering me.

Ggglygy: I don't feel right giving you a rating. I always thought you were a pretty strong player, but you stopped putting in the time to the game for some reason. Regardless, I don't think your current skill level is really a solid indicator of your potential skill. The fact that you barely play the game just makes you rusty. If you were to actually come back to the game, I think you would be on the top of the lower half of invite, and start to make your way back up.
You were a smart player and your dm was relatively consistent, but if you never play, it's hard to judge you.
?.?/10

rate me on medic if you can :S

Who are you?

Scout please, I have 14 hours total on medic lol.
EDIT: I reloaded the thread and it posted this again. I am really curious who this is now haha.

Rline: I've always respected your play. You have extremely consistent dm-img ability, paired with vast fps knowledge and a fun attitude makes you a well rounded player. I'm not 100% sure why you stopped playing so much, I think I heard something about you working. If you actually put the time into playing, I think you're much better than most top im scouts/lower level invite scouts (provided you just dm/mge a bit more and get un-rusty). One suggestion would just to try and comm a lot more, in general you're relatively quiet, and being more vocal and commanding is never really a bad thing considering you're a smart player.
8.0/10 (top of im/lower invite IF he started putting time into the game)

hi

hi

im euphhy :S i played for pussy poachers in open last season =\

Euphhy: For a new medic, you seem pretty solid. You seem to be able to charge your ubers well and simply have a high volume of ubers, which I think is a pretty solid thing to do for an open medic. A few things you should work on to try and improve and get more exposure in TF2 are:
- watch your own demos and whenever you die, ask yourself "how could I have not died at that moment?" there will be times where it's inevitable to die, but simply doing this exercise will help yourself realize what positions work and which positions don't.
- track ubers. use the scoreboard to your advantage. you get a lot of ubers and you can charge faster than the other teams, but if you aren't tracking their ubers, it means nothing. when your teammate kills their medic, watch the scoreboard and figure out when he spawns, look at your uber charge, and calculate how much uber advantage you have. if you have 50%+, tell your team to wait for the uber then stomp them. if you only have 10%, then tell your team to not be so overly aggressive and play in a more defensive spot. this will help you not drop so often (being out of position). Try and get on a team where you are starting, so you can practice these things.
2.5/10 (very minimal league experience, but with time you could be a solid player)

rate me scout

DON'T SKIP ME unless you don't know me

Do me

scout and solly plz (:

dummy is really shy but he wants one too

ded

the astrologer of skill ratings

tell me why im not as good as decimate (hint: its cuz hes prettier than me)

Hey

If you know anything about the Euro scene, rate me

hey there, rate me

Decimate: After being a pugstar and progressing through competitive TF2 with a solid group of players, it's nice to see that you haven't struggled to stay competitive with other invite scouts. Your aim is obviously your strongsuit and you have a pretty thorough understanding of when to cleanup. I think playing with ducks has made you a more intelligent player, but you don't seem to always put that to use. It's really easy to think of your role as a scout as a really limited class, but other scouts (clockwork, enigma, ruwin, cyzer) are able to use their strong dm ability to create opportunities for their team. I think you obviously have the aim to do the same, but you lack initiative and creativity. I believe that with one more season with ducks, you'll be more comfortable in trying more abstract plays, rather than following the standard scout rules.
9.0/10

Blaze: It's really easy to fanboy onto your playstyle without much thought, but most people will be surprised that you're actually a lot smarter than you let on. You make good use of your unlocks and you clearly understand the limitations and strengths of your class (soldier). Although your dm'ing ability is strong, many players forget that what really makes a roamer strong is positioning, timing, and creativity. I think you possess these qualities and I'm excited to see how you will perform this coming season.
9.7/10

Lange: You're a well rounded player. Your aim is pretty consistent (for some reason you always hit the most fucking ridiculous airshots but you miss easy ground shots, can someone explain this?), you're a very intelligent guy, and your communication skills are pretty top notch. With all of this in mind, people might ask, what separates lange from the other top pockets?

The answer is relatively simple:
- you tend to get on tilt if things start to snowball out of control.
it's really easy to think you have no influence in a game if you're losing, but don't lose hope so much! it's up to you sometimes to make plays for your team and bring them back, you can't lose motivation if you're down 0-4. Play for every single round lange, not for the match.

- you seem a little bit scared to really show your skill.
like I said above, you're a really intelligent guy. i think you have a lot of good ideas on how you can make great plays, but you seem a little scared to put those ideas to use. don't be afraid to punish players for overextending and making hero plays.

9.2/10

What team were you on? I know a few people named Rick, just making sure you are the one I'm thinking of.

Sakura: You seem to have great mechanics for a medic. I rarely see you drop an uber and your movement is mature for your skill level. I think your team kind of holds you back a little bit in skill, but that's not to say you don't have any faults. I think you can really improve your pushes a lot more by doing more demo/scout ubers when you KNOW you have advantage, because soldiers aren't nearly as effective in a raw damage dealing situation when you're invulnerable. You should also try and lead your team when you know you're at an advantage/disadvantage. If you're staring at your team's hp and you see they're all very low and you know the other team hasn't been taking much, communicate to your team that it's a bad situation and they should get out or play defensive. If you know your team is fine and the opposing team is in a shitty spot, tell your team to be aggressive because you're much safer when their team is low hp (they have to play defensive).

Your brain is working, just make sure you act upon your thoughts.
6.5/10 (middle of im)

rate me please

HRG rick, I've only recently started to play scout you can rate me on demo, whatever

FanofAngels: You have a good grasp of the flow of the game, but your dm/positioning skill limits your abilities. If you try and take your time with your shots a bit more (or just dm/mge until you're able to aim consistently) you'll find yourself drastically increasing your damage output. The only other suggestion is to try and not get ahead of yourself and die out of position. Good teams will take advantage of that 1 player pick and it makes it that much harder for your team to defend if you randomly give them a free pick.
2.5/10

Do me, but be nice! What do I need to do to reach the top!
