Hello!

Does anyone hear about the finnish Rauli 'Darn' Savela (used to play TF2 as a soldier in Dignitas)?

I'm a huge, huge fan and I haven't heard about him for a while, I'm a little curious about how he is doing... Any information would help! :D

Thank you!

Darn hasn't been on steam on done anything TF2 wise for a long long time, last i checked. Most likely put it all behind him and moved on. again, i may be wrong. the man was good thing and i'm a fan of him as well :P
Edit: hes been Inactive from the TF2 scene for 2 years and it most likely will stay like that. But the National cups have returned, and many old EU players have returned. so that may be a possibility

His last game was with some Finnish team during the season where ETF2L said you can use openplugin to change the fov if both teams agree. He played on a 4:3 monitor and used 120fov in openplugin but when playing against (I think it was) crack clan Ipz denied the openplugin and Darn threw the first map and they defaulted the second map. I'm pretty sure the cast is on the vtv youtube somewhere.

Darn i actually liked as a player. but the nations cups are coming back again, and many old EU players have returned (from what i heard) so maybe he'll be back :7 back to smashing his keyboard.

Nation Cup is already in progress, but Darn isn't playing. Here's current Team Finland.

Never understood how people can just simply move on. It's not like they sell their house and live on the road, they still have a computer and (probably) play other games. Do they simply just untick 'start Steam on boot'?

He used to do a lot of Path of Exile racing (See Lifetime points) for a while after his TF2 departure. Not sure where he went next.

Here are more stats: Link

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HI3Qk0AxGLY if anyone's interested.

FWIW, I've only seen Darn exactly twice: this match, and the first cast I ever tuned into, which was during the pause when Darn smashed his keyboard against his computer and bluescreened it. Not exactly the best of impressions.

dizastaKidIpzVinlad Darn!: fovI heard you like defaults

Makes no sense and I doubt you watched the VOD as this game started and should have been played was it not for one players decision to let his ego kick in. If you know you depend on a gentlemens agreement to allow you using this higher fov that would only would lead to potencial disadvantages for your opponent why would you assume you will be allowed to do that. Let me tell you why. Cause your not thinking this through rationally you just feel entitled to it and thats ego :D and in this case ego is the enemy. My teams actions can´t really be blamed considering this clientside Plugin to enhace your fov was soon after banned by Valve and people then got banned for using it ( Hi thalash :> )

I really hope you are not one of those guys posting in forums "why this game isnt going anywhere" or "what can we do to grow the competitive scene" when an even playing field for everyone is the first step to create a good competitive game where there arent some peeps with higher fovs and some with glowing playermodels or no borders when zooming and all the other shenanigans you kids can come up with! Just my 2 cent
